Chapter 9, Mochi – Blazer

“噔~”

The swift sword twisted into a light and shadow, In Sid’s hands, the Templar Rapier was like a poisonous snake, moving like a dragon, making Mochi scream.

Out of fear of Sid’s magic “pushing back”, Mochi tried his best to stand firm in the lower plate, so that Sid would not have a chance to stumble him, otherwise he would only be instantly killed with Sid’s strength. .

However, Mochi’s own pace and rhythm were very chaotic because he was too afraid to be staggered. After five or six rounds with Sid, apprentice Knight was already in a hurry.

Huh? Sid, who kept attacking Mochi’s right hand holding the sword, was also a little surprised.

Normally, Old Knight brings apprentice Knight and several Knight squires and apprentices out to experience and increase combat experience. This is an extremely classic combination. It seems that Mochi is young and light and should be no more than twenty-three years old. Obviously, it should be trained as Old Knight’s recipe, which is a sign of preparing to become a regular, so Mochi’s strength should be lower than the two Old Knights.

In fact, according to Sid’s judgment, even if the two Old Knights add up, they are probably not the opponent of this apprentice Knight!

So why is this guy a trainee Knight?

Without time to think about it, Mochi makes his move.

“Heroic raid!” Mochi took a step back, his body was fully charged and moved towards Sid like a cannonball.

The sword in apprentice Knight’s hand draws a figure-of-eight dance at an elegant angle, directly facing Sid’s face.

Sid didn’t panic, the beautiful boy slid sideways, letting Mochi’s sword enter the inner line of his torso cylinder to make it deviate from the right side, the sword came out swiftly, and the thin sword edge followed the opponent The Knight’s sword guard drew a semi-circle and sent it forward sharply.

Spiral thrusts!

“Dang~” Mochi fell to the ground, and the kite feather on the apprentice Knight’s kite helmet was picked up in the air by the swift sword, and swayed back and forth with the remaining strength.

“you let me win” Sid faint smile’s expression as always: “Good level, Mr. Mochi.”

“I lost.” Mochi forced a smile embarrassingly.

“Rizlan! first under the heavens!”

“We Rizlan are invincible!”

“Master, I want to learn the Swift Sword !”

The cheers went up and down, which made the Raven Knights very embarrassed, Sid clapped: “Okay, everyone, we are just discussing, me and Bauer, David and This Mr. Mochi is a very good friend. Everyone wants to go out to do business together, and they may encounter troublesome enemies. I just show them how to guard against the quick sword routine. If you really want to duel seriously, I really don’t have to be. Their opponents.”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the two Old Knights looked much better, but Bauer said with a smile: “If you lose, you lose, and you don’t need little brother. We make excuses, our strength is indeed not as good as yours, which is also a good thing for us, it seems that we have little brother with us on this trip, so you don’t have to worry about accidents, hahahaha!”

“What can I do alone, I still have to rely on everyone’s help, work together, and complete the mission together, hahahaha.” Seeing that Old Knight was not stubborn, Sid, who knew what to do, also followed Bauer and laughed, he stretched out his hand and pulled Mochi up , moved towards the group of squire apprentices: “Who else wants to try?”

“Me, me, me!” “Please let me come!”

Next Ten minutes later, all the Knight squires came up to challenge, and everyone couldn’t make a move in Sid’s hands.

Even a few mercenaries next to him came up to challenge, but they were all defeated by Sid with one blow.

“Let you be a warrior is not about throwing yourself moved towards the enemy!”

“Rogue, your weapon is short, think about the distance before attacking! Do you think you can How many times do you circle around me?”

“Too slow! This kind of heavy weapon is not suitable for you, you can kill you ten times with one attack!”

Everyone was killed Bobo was defeated, which attracted more challenges. Soon, the news of “a Swift Sword Master” guiding sword techniques for free in Xunfeng Passenger Transport spread like wildfire. People wanting to learn technology poured in from outside, and the waiting room was full.

Unfortunately, the carriage of Xunfeng Passenger Transport was ready at this time, Sid stopped the discussion and boarded the carriage with the Raven Knight group, ready to go, and everyone reluctantly said goodbye.

Two Old Knights in a carriage, Sid and Mochi in a carriage, 8 Cornerstone Rank squires and 4 Beginners apprentices in two carriages, 3 horses of the Raven Knights, 3 A packhorse was handed over to the retinues to take care of and follow behind.

“Go!” The driver announced the departure after being confirmed.

Sid and Mochi sat opposite each other with the sound of the axle turning “gu lu gu lu”.

The canopy is thicker, popping as the carriage shakes, and there are only simple wooden seats lined up on either side of the carriage.

“You are amazing, Mr. Sid.” Mochi took the initiative to start the conversation: “There are very few people at your age who have this kind of power, not even Nobili.”

Alright.” SidK “No, it’s okay, he is also a little curious about the young night: “Your strength is not bad.”

“Can you tell me where you learned it from? Anti-trick? Mochi asked, “It’s not like a trick you can learn at Rizlan. ”

Sid is not surprised by this, teaching the discipline and starving the master is the truth in this world. Few people are willing to make their skills public for everyone to learn. Instead, there are a lot of them. Small groups, many high-level battle skills are controlled by various small groups, and can only be learned by paying a lot of money or even joining by yourself.

And to be honest, only in the world of swords and magic. Conditional to use the magical skills of rebounding and pushing back.

“The Raven Knight regiment has been established for 2,000 years, is there no one in the Knight regiment? “Sid lightly took the topic away.

“Of course, but I’m not an official Knight. I can only read books on this subject in the outer court library, and I can’t enter the inner court. Mochi spread his hands, the expression on his face was depressed and helpless: “So I just watched it. “

“How many years have you been a trainee Knight?” “Sid is really weird now.

“I’m 22 years old and I’ve been a trainee Knight for five years. When Mochi talked about this, he became angry: “It’s been five years, and I’ve waited for five years to get a regular spot. Do you know how I got here in the past five years?” “

“That’s really weird.” “Sid followed Mochi’s words and asked: “You can beat them steadily, why can’t you just turn into a positive?” ”

“Regularization needs to be programmed. Mochi seems to have finally found someone to talk to. He simply spit out all the bitterness: “I don’t know anything else. In the Raven Knight group, the official Knight has a quota. After all, one more Knight is required. An extra salary, an extra piece of armor, weapons, and war horses, these years have not been successful, and the output of the manor is limited. Your Majesty also prohibits us from taking missions and doing business in private, so it is really difficult to turn into a regular, Bauer and David Those guys are all in their forties, but they won’t retire. “

“Don’t be discouraged, man, I’m sure you’ll be back on track soon.” “Sid said with a smile: “There will always be someone who has successfully turned positive, right?” “

“It’s hard, there’s only one way to become a regular, and that is to endure.” “Mochi said with a bitter smile: “Wait. “

“How to say? “Sid is interested in understanding the status quo of the Imperial Knights.

“As you can see, I am an Iquis descendant, but my bloodline is already very thin, and I was not born into an influential family. 600 acres of land and several shops. Mochi held the kite helmet in his hands: “For a trainee Knight like me who lacks influence and can’t donate a large amount, the only way is to boil.” “

“Seniority? score? Sid touched his bald chin. Although he is only 17 years old this year, he seems to be much older than Mochi.

“Apprentice Knight, it is not so easy to get a regular job, the first thing is to find the right person. “Mochi sighed: “Look at me, I’m looking for Bauer and David. They’re older and need fresh blood.” “

“This is normal, master and disciple. “Sid means understanding.

“It is master and disciple, not master and disciple. “Mochi said you don’t understand: “From the time I put in their door at first, I will do things for them, they have tasks, I will come out, they have reports, I will write, they are in trouble, I will solve, their All achievements are made by me, but ‘I’ does not exist in these achievements, the person who completed the task is not Mochi-Brazer, the signatory of the report is not Mochi-Brazer, and even many tasks that go out to crusade , I did it all wearing their armor and face mask. When I was sleeping in the open air, the two of them were in charge of getting paid and enjoying barbecue in the Knight group. Do you know what I mean? “

“But if they encounter troubles and problems, then everything is my responsibility, it’s my fault, I must come out and take the initiative to tell them, the big mentor, the flag Captain, it’s me I’ve been locked up and whipped for so many times. “

“Then this is really pitiful. Sid sneered a few times: “I think I understand, this time they come out to make extra money and will take you with them, not to train you, but…”

“There is a lack of thugs.” Mochi’s body leaned back, and it seemed that he finally spit out all the words in his stomach. He felt a lot more comfortable: “This is the fifth year, finally, the fifth year, ‘Mochi – Blazer’ finally There are people, I’m starting to be allowed to be on the roster and on the team, it’s hard. “

“Is this common? Did no one resist? “Sid still looks like that faded smile.

“Of course you can resist, of course you can be dissatisfied, of course you can refuse. Mochi said helplessly: “It’s just that when you show dissatisfaction, show even the slightest sign of wanting to go against their will, even if it is the intention of taking two more gold ecubits, you will be abandoned, and all official Knights will reject you. , you will never get a little chance from now on, unless something unexpected happens later, it will never be your turn to get a regular spot. “

“Then you wait like this? Sid still followed Mochi’s words. After listening to this youngster, he probably understood the current situation of the Raven Knight regiment.

“After waiting for five years, is it time to give up?” Mochi spread his hands: “Wait a minute, Mr. Bauer and Mr. David are almost 50 in two or three years. When they are 50 years old, if they can’t go further in strength, they should prepare to ‘retire’, they promised. When the time comes will recommend me to be a regular. . “

“This is too bad.” Sid finally showed a little emotion: “I am serious, Mr. Mochi, your strength is very good, there is no need to continue to waste time in the Knight group, 18 to 25 years old is the best age in life, although I am a mercenary middleman , was also recruited by the Knight group, but…”

“You are different, Mr. Sid, you are different. Who knew that Mochi wouldn’t listen to Sid’s words at all: “With your appearance and strength, if you join the Knight group, it is impossible to have a trainee time. The first year is an apprentice, the second year is a squire, and the third year will be an official Knight.” , if you can go a step further and step into the Hero Rank in the future, then the Raven Knight group will pour all resources on you, and the Black Eagle court will also notice you. “

Sid is silent.

Hero Rank, isn’t it?

Since he came across, Sid has learned that this is a sword and magic The world is also a world that pays great attention to strength. In this world, the level of strength is divided into Level 7. If Level 0 is included, there is Level 8. However, the unemployed at Level 0 are generally not counted in the level.

Hero Rank is Level 4 in the Level 7 system.

“Are you awakening the innate talent of a professional? “Sid pressed.

“Of course. Mochi seemed to feel insulted by Sid’s words, he said impatiently: “I awakened my professional innate talent when I was 7 years old!” Don’t you think I can’t do it if you don’t go to church? “

“I’m 3 years old. “Sid said coldly.

“Fuck! “Mochi lost his temper by Sid’s words, he stopped talking to Sid, and sat alone in the carriage, sulking.

Whether you can awaken the innate talent of the professional by yourself is the noble blood of the Divine Blood. Symbol, even if the bloodline’s power is not as good as before, Nobili and Iquis can still rely on the bloodline’s power to awaken professional innate talent.

The remaining Sivis or Gaius will be at 9 or 13 Year-olds get an opportunity to awaken the innate talent of the professional, and the priests are responsible for consecrating them with baptism. However, the baptism cost of those with good innate talent is very low, while the cost of baptism for those with poor innate talent is high. Every child has acquired baptism, and ordinary citizens can make their excellent children accept baptism by gritting their teeth, while fourth-class Seus often needs several families to pool money to make the best youngsters in the village accept baptism.

The better the child’s innate talent, the lower the fee, and the worse the child’s innate talent, the higher the fee.

For example, according to Sid’s knowledge, Old Ma’s innate talent is very poor, and his parents It took 30 gold ecubits to make the priest spend a lot of effort to help him awaken the innate talent of the professional.

So what if the money is not enough to awaken the innate talent of the professional?

These people are the zeroth class, and in the Holy Empire they are called the unemployed.

They are the most common people, and these people make up about 50% of the total number of mortals, The fate of the unemployed is destined to be human. They can only appear in the world as “peasants” and “low-level coolies” in their entire lives. They have no chance to change their fate. The unemployed constitute the most basic population and population of this world. The low-end labor force.

The fate of the unemployed is tragic.

But these people still constitute the grassroots force of the whole society.

The accompanying It is barbaric and stupid, almost all the unemployed have a hard time receiving the correct form of education, so they often show greed, hatred, cruel nature, they despise the weaker and the Conqueror, and show superstition in the face of problems And ignorant, some people are extremely fond of quarreling and resorting to violence, like a hungry wild be Ast thirsts for stimulation, while others endure everything silently like Old Huang cattle, indifferent and paralyzed, peacefully still.

So what happens if the professional innate talent is awakened?

Those who have awakened professional innate talent will start from Level 1 professional – Beginner.

Beginners are the backbone of society, and they also account for 30%-40% of the total population.

Mortals begin to differentiate at this Level 1. Any beginner who accepts baptism can often get simple physical enhancement and the ability to master simple techniques, which is an indispensable part of the empire.

In addition to the settlers, most of the Empire’s recruits and Rizlan’s mercenaries are this Level 1.

Beginners with excellent family background or wealth can quickly skip this stage, while the remaining beginners must be sharpened. Fortunately, Level 1 beginners as long as the innate talent is not hopelessly rotten , then spend enough time most people can be promoted to Cornerstone Rank smoothly.

Only for a few people, this time may be as long as 3 months, and for most people, this time may be 20 years!

This is the reality.
