Chapter 465

Lu Chen has been very leisurely in recent days. Even when he is free in the evening, he plays online games with PSP, a special product of space for drawing pear clothes, when he is alone in the room.

It can only be said that conscience is true. One 10 yuan power supply absorbs natural energy and can be used in all kinds of worlds

In the daytime, he will train his dozens of subordinates in order to prevent everyone from taking a long walk and turning around in the king's capital.

After a week, he probably understood that Wang Du was indeed managed by King kusra and became his own power.

He went to many nobles, and only one dared to receive him, the Marquis of Carles.

Carls also joined the army when he was young. He spent time on the Great Wall in the north and admired the Duke of Godzilla very much. Later, because his father died of illness, he went home to inherit the Marquis and settled down in the king's capital.

As the current head of the family, he certainly wanted to do whatever he wanted. Despite the opposition of the family, he received Lu Chen.

However, he also has the label of "Duke of Godzilla", so he doesn't hold any official position in the Empire. At present, he works in the Holy See. He is a clerical work and has no real power. If he wants to go to work, he can go if he wants to, and he can't go if he doesn't want to.

The Terrans in this world also have churches. In ancient times, when divine power was greater than monarchy, the power of the church was weakened only after the Howard family started and became the monarch of the Terrans.

Today, the church is just a spiritual belief of the people, which is used to publicize all kinds of sacred virtues and educate the people.

In addition, the most important duty of the church at present is to supply a large number of clergy for the Empire.

Because of the existence of the abyss, the army of the Great Wall has to fight many wars every year. The existence of the priest team can effectively reduce the casualties of soldiers.

The church also teaches magic, but there are few powerful magicians in human beings, and most of them are of noble origin. Therefore, there is no organic magic Legion at present. At most, there are thousands of magicians, who did their best in the war.

In this world, human beings can't compare with orcs, dragons and even dwarves in terms of bravery of individual body, and there is no comparison with elves in terms of magic.

But human beings are better at reproduction and large-scale command operations.

When the scale of the war exceeds a certain extent, the advantages of the Terran begin to be reflected.

Apart from others, the total number of elves may not exceed one million.

The dwarves have only tens of millions of people. They are not keen on having children. They are addicted to ironmaking, mining, forging and wine making.

The reproductive ability of the orcs is not poor. Even some races can produce a lot in a nest, but the mortality rate of their ethnic people is very high. In addition, the prairie resources are not abundant and the feeding capacity is limited. The population base has been around 100 million.

At present, the population of the Terran Empire has exceeded one billion!

Therefore, it is said that there are five million active soldiers in the Keya empire. It sounds a lot. In fact, it is reasonable in proportion. Except for the defenders everywhere, there are only three million troops in the Great Wall.

It sounds like a lot, but the abyss creatures can't be killed. If there are continuous large-scale attacks, the Keya empire can't stand it.

But in fact, the proportion only seems reasonable from the overall aspect. Lu Chen learned from gulantin that nearly half of the defenders of the great wall of the Empire were born in the north.

The north is bitter and cold, with a total population of less than 30 million.

What is the concept of 30 million people and 1.5 million soldiers?

This is nearly one twentieth of the proportion, which is equivalent to one in every 20 people in the north is a soldier of the Great Wall.

There are historical and geographical reasons for this phenomenon.

Geographically speaking, the northern border is the closest place from the whole aika continent to the Great Wall. Once the Great Wall is broken, their home will be the first ravaged by the abyss.

The northern border is poor and the folk custom is fierce. Many people can't eat enough and have no future. They can only join the army. The salary for joining the army in the Great Wall is very high, which is enough to support a family of five.

The historical reason is that the kings of all dynasties deliberately controlled this phenomenon and did not vigorously develop the economy in the north and improve the living conditions of the people. The reasons are more complex and may be multifaceted.

Lu Chen went all the way south from the north. From what he saw, in fact, the famine of the Empire was not as serious as he thought. When he went out of the north and entered the fertile Central Plains, basically every family had enough to eat, and those aristocratic and tyrants were as extravagant and wasteful as ever.

Like the Lord who received them, the pomp of the banquet was no different from the richest moment of the Empire in the memory of the Duke of Godzilla.

It's true that Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and the road is frozen to death.

When there were strong enemies outside, King kusra still didn't make any action about the disaster in the north, and the ministers and nobles in the king's capital didn't give advice. They had enough to eat and drink and didn't care about the life and death of the people in the north?

Compared with the severe famine in the north, they were more concerned about the friction between the West and the orcs and worried about the war with the orcs.

At first, Lu Chen thought it was ridiculous and couldn't figure it out.

Later, he thought it over carefully before he understood the mentality of these people.

In fact, it's very simple. To put it bluntly, guarding the Great Wall is guarding the mainland. Although I'm guarding it now, it's not my family's business. Can you help me if it's really broken?

Since the abyss appeared and was beaten back, and the Great Wall was built, the war over the years seems to have proved that the abyss is just like that.

Don't you see that the Great Wall hasn't been broken after 500 years of rotation and one family keeps one era?

The long-term comfort gradually made the people of Eka despise the abyss. Compared with this "public obligation", they began to care about the interest disputes in the mainland.

For example, the orcs want to invade the rich territory of the Terrans, and the Terrans want to fight to the end. I won't defend the Great Wall.

As an external explorer, Lu Chen has a wide field of vision. Naturally, Lu Chen will not have the same mentality as people in this world.

The abyss will never be that simple, and the crisis is probably not far away.

"Duke, there are several people asking to see you."

Gulantin walked to Lu Chen and interrupted Lu Chen's thinking while sitting in the pavilion.

"What identity?"

Lu Chen regained his mind. It's strange. It's supposed that no one will come to him at this time. They should all regard themselves as the God of plague.

After their meeting, King kusra was silent again, as if he had really forgotten his brother.

Gulantin's expression was strange. "They said they were the defenders in Linbei city. Now they have retired. Because they have seen the grace of the Duke, they want to take refuge in the Duke."

Lu Chen pondered, "let them in."

It seemed strange and incomprehensible to gulantin, but he thought about it and understood that these people were explorers.

In fact, he was also impressed. At that time, under the city wall, he felt that he had several bold peeks at his sight.

A moment later, gulantin led the three men over.

Now, because they have retired from the army, they are all dressed in ordinary people's clothes.

The first is a strong man with a scar on both corners of his eyes. On his right hand is a beautiful and lovely girl with a height of less than 1.6 meters, and on his left is a tall and thin man with black hair.

In the eyes of the three pretending to be respectful, they all knelt down on one knee with a trace of uneasiness and caution and said, "see your Duke."

These three people are naturally kabi, xiaoxiannai and Geng GUI. As a pet elf group, they still want to cry and go to the king's capital without tears.

Yes, they don't want to come, but the main task gives them a choice.

Originally, they stayed well in Linbei City, thinking about making branch lines in the city, brushing some origin coins, and returning quickly after completing the main task.

Unexpectedly, xiaoxiannai did something because of her personal ability, which led to the deviation of the third ring of their main task.

Xiaoxiannai is a part-time nurse of a botanical mage. One day, when practicing magic in the suburbs of the city, she was seen by a general near the north city. The general was ecstatic and said that xiaoxiannai had great talent.

At first, several people of the kabi beast were also ecstatic, thinking that they could get more oil and water in Linbei city.

But that night, they were greeted by assassins sent by the consul.

If Geng GUI hadn't been vigilant and found the fishiness in advance, several people would have run away with the transmission scroll, and they might have told him that they were in Linbei city.

After their main task entered the next link, it also changed into a main line called "I love farming".

The task is not complicated. In short, it is to use the ability of xiaoxiannai to develop new adaptive seeds, plant more than 100 mu of land in the north, and wait for a good harvest of food, even if the task is completed.

After seeing this task, the kabi Beast asked xiaoxiannai suspiciously, "will you study new seeds?"

Xiaoxiannai also looked confused and forced, "I won't."

It's true that she is a botanical mage, but when it comes to developing new botanical spells, she still has some ideas. She has never tried to study new plant seeds or anything.

After all, they are explorers. They enter the mission world to fight and kill, not to farm. Why do they study those?

Under the serious questioning of her teammates, she thought about her ability carefully. It seems that if she really wants to do it, it is not impossible.

But the question is, how to study new seeds? The land in the north is poor, and this era is even worse. It is difficult for seeds to grow. If we want to study new seeds, we need a lot of advanced materials and samples for a large number of experiments.

But they are low-level explorers. They exist like bitter ha ha. Where can I find these things?

In terms of space mission, it is said that you need a good harvest. You can't just grow things at will. The requirements are very strict.

The difficulty of the task is also marked. It is difficult to death. The punishment for failure is not to erase, but the full attribute - 3 is also unacceptable to them.

In other words, the starting point difficulty of this task is against the sky for them. It's the first time for several people to see the fatal difficulty.

Isn't this a mess!?

Several people wanted to cry without tears, but they had a good relationship because they had experienced many worlds together. Kabi and Geng GUI didn't blame xiaoxiannai. After all, who could have thought that they could meet this in daily practice.

Then we can only find a way to complete the task.

Why did the consul kill them? At first, he thought it was the ability of little fairy milk, like the elf family, which was misunderstood.

But think about it carefully. They all showed themselves well when they joined the army. The appearance of xiaoxiannai doesn't have the characteristics of the elf family.

Then why would the consul want to kill xiaoxiannai? He could only guess that it might not be the consul himself.

Others couldn't figure it out. They didn't have time to delay. They had to find a way to complete the main line first.

After some discussion, they felt that they had to hold a thigh to complete it. Otherwise, it was impossible for them to collect those materials alone. The task time limit was four months. They had to make a choice as soon as possible.

After thinking about it, several people decided to come to Wangdu, because there are many big men in Wangdu, as well as many big men in the plot.

In order to prevent a terrible conjecture from being true, they can't take refuge in King kulas. Moreover, with the character of the king, they can't see anyone at all.

At last, xiaoxiannai had an idea and said, "let's go find the Duke of Godzilla."

Originally, kabi wanted to scold xiaoxiannai for being a flower maniac, but on second thought, it seems... It's also good.

First of all, the Duke of Godzilla seems to be a "good official" who really cares for the imperial people. Secondly, he has a good reputation in the north. He may rise again and return to the Great Wall in the future. He basically covers the area near the north.

Many of the defenders of the Great Wall, that is, the old subordinates of the Duke of Godzilla, are also in the north. Should it be a good thing for the Duke of Godzilla to plant land in the north?

So they finally went all the way to the king's capital and found the residence of the Duke of Godzilla.

"Oh? Do you want to develop new seeds and plant land in the north, fuze side?"

Lu Chen looked at several explorers without expression. In fact, he was interested. Isn't it a coincidence.

I also want to do this. I'm worried about the place where I don't start and the talents who understand this aspect.

He seriously doubts that space has made it convenient for him to win the world

For fear that he didn't know that there were botanical mages among these explorers, he packed them directly in the form of task and sent them to the door.

In fact, as long as he looks at the world public screen more, observes other explorers and collects information, he will notice them sooner or later, but it may take a few months at night.

"Yes, we are from the north. We really can't bear to see that the villagers don't have enough to eat. We want to contribute to the people."

Kabi animals look awe inspiring. Of course, they can't say it's for the task. They should pretend to be good young people for the country and the people.

"Yes, stay here. It's my former subordinates. I'll give gulantin a list of materials and supplies I need, and I'll pay attention to it."

In the surprised eyes of several explorers, Lu Chen nodded.

The maid arranged by King kulas is not allowed to approach his courtyard, and the strength of these explorers is not strong. They are said to be ordinary veterans and will not attract other people's attention.

The master still has some difficulties, but it's not easy for him to solve this matter

He hasn't done research, but he has visited the equipment department and knows how wasteful those people are in order to study new things

I'm afraid the resources to be spent to develop new seeds are astronomical, and he is still poor at this time.

"Gulantin, arrange a room for them."

Lu Chen told gulantin that he didn't want to be too far away. Let's stay first.

The kabi beast followed gulantin away with a happy face, and said that the main task had finally been settled.

At this time, Gree ran over with a strange face and said to Lu Chen, "Duke, an old eunuch outside the door said he had brought the king's book."

Lu Chen has a funny smile on his mouth. The king's book is the imperial edict. What does kusra want to do this time?

"Let him in."

Lu Chen said, go out to meet? It doesn't exist.

After a while, Wallis was holding the king's book in his hand. Under the eyes of the veterans, he had fine beads of sweat on his forehead and was very nervous. After all, what he came to read this time was not a good thing.

"Join the Duke."

Wallis bowed his head and saluted although he represented the royal power at this time, mainly because of the great psychological shadow in the past.

"Come on, what can I do for you, brother Wang?"

Lu Chen picked up Alice's black tea and tasted it gracefully.

He knows it won't be a good thing, but when there is news, it will make a change. After he has been idle for some time, it's time to start acting.

Wallis cleared his throat and stopped reading the king's book. He briefly said: "Your Majesty wants the Duke to go to the West on behalf of the Empire and negotiate with the orcs."
