Both girls' shawls have two silver tassels on the neckline, and on the back is the shield-shaped labyrinth pattern of the Xijia District branch. As for the apprentice's upper arm, there should be the coat of arms of his or her instructor to prove his/her ownership. Of course, if
If a teacher does not have a personal coat of arms, it is common for the teacher's coat of arms to be completely blank.
Halumi and Kaya's upper arms are empty. But this is not because Lin did not design a coat of arms for herself, but because the girls thought it was too ugly, so they refused to use it.
It is not compulsory for apprentices to declare their master's status. They show it clearly to prove who their backers are; if they refuse to show it, sometimes it is because the teacher has too many enemies, and in order to avoid trouble, they hide this relationship.
As for someone's despised personal mark, it is an eight-bit pixelated image of a three-headed monkey. In fact, the name he used in Midland and the image of the three-headed monkey originated from the early days of the earth.
A computer game.
I used this name because when I first met the magician who was kind to me, the magician introduced himself: "Good day, I am Charlie Richard."
At that time, someone's first thought was that if you were Richard Richard, then I would be Gai Brash. Then the name used in Midland was decided...
Although I didn’t have the opportunity to say the classic line, ‘i’m_a_mighty_priate!’, after all, the professions are different. However, using the three-headed monkey as my mark can be regarded as making up for my feelings.
Compared with Lin's small shawl with only one golden tassel, Fen's two golden tassels on his collar are a bit dazzling. Generally speaking, the identity of a great magician may not be recognized across regions. To be recognized as a great magician,
A magician must have corresponding achievements. In addition to the great achievements he has made that can be passed on to new areas, he can also do something that is recognized enough in a new place.
Therefore, before being recognized by the new district, most great magicians will untie a golden thread after crossing the district to show respect.
However, some magicians with a more flamboyant personality will also appear in areas where they have never visited or have not been recognized by wearing two golden threads. In addition to showing that they have become the great magician in the area,
In addition to being confident, he is also somewhat provocative.
Fen still tied the two golden threads and did not take off one of them. Lin estimated that the former Demon King did not know that Mi Di had such a habit. In other words, even if he knew, he didn't care.
However, Lin, an insider, had no intention of reminding him. On the one hand, he hoped that Fen's identity as a great magician would shock the crowd. Furthermore, as a lich and the demon king who created the dark age, Fen was not to mention his identity as a great magician.
, it should be no problem to mix with a Dharma Saint.
It's just that her reputation is not enough now, and when it comes to the demon king Tikal, she is mostly infamous. And to be recognized as a Dharma Saint, whether the reputation is spread is also a very important indicator. So the next best thing, Lin believes that a lich can get
The status of a great magician is a matter of course. He will not stop Fen from wearing two golden threads and appearing in front of everyone in Shanling City.
Compared with the city managed by the nobles, the city managed by the magicians is less strict in terms of customs defense. Therefore, the passage speed is quite fast. Basically, the soldiers guarding the gate take a look at those who want to enter, and collect taxes on a per head basis. If there is goods, then
Taxes are collected on a per-car basis. Of course, whether the owner intends to sell the goods here, or, like Lin and others, they are all worth it.
The two girls riding the horses dismounted. This was the rule for entering the city gate. The driver did not need to get off the horse, as long as someone was responsible for taking care of the soldiers. Halumi took the initiative to take over the job, and talked with the soldiers familiarly.
Make friends.
Most of the soldiers guarding the city gate are ordinary warriors, even if this is a magician's city. If there are magicians also guarding the city gate, it usually means that something big is about to happen, or has already happened.
A group of ordinary soldiers are not likely to embarrass people above the level of magic apprentices. Especially the soldiers on routine inspections, when they see a beautiful woman sitting lazily on the back of the truck with two golden threads tied on her chest, a group of
After collecting the city entry tax, the soldiers lined up to welcome the group into the city without any hesitation.
As for the cost of entering the city, it varies from city to city, but there will always be a sign posted at the border gate, specifying the price per person and the price per car. This is because there were once stingy magicians or warriors with strong martial arts who announced that the gate defense soldiers would raise the price by sitting on the ground.
I didn't want to be cheated, so I went gangbusters to break through. In order to avoid such disputes, I adopted such a compromise approach. After all, it was impossible to let the great magician guard the gate.
However, when paying the tax, Halumi still grabbed an extra handful of Danba (copper coins), gave it to the soldier guarding the gate, and asked: "Do you have any recommendations for a comfortable hotel?"
The newcomers asked some unconfidential geographical locations in Shanling City. This was considered as extra money. Therefore, the tax-collecting soldiers were not pretentious. After taking a few coins themselves, they passed the rest to other companions.
He responded with a smile: "Go along the road entering the city gate and turn right at the second intersection. Dove Song will warmly entertain all friends from out of town."
"Thank you." After a polite salute, Halumi took the horse and led the way into the city gate.
Shanling City is the first city that Lin and others entered after crossing the Doomsday Mountains, and it is also the most lively one. However, for the group of people who are used to seeing the bustle of Wulian City, they always feel that the 'bustling' scene of Shanling City is not enough
A little worse.
Pedestrians on the road can easily identify their identities. Those walking proudly in the middle of the road must be magicians and a small number of magic apprentices. As for the average people living in Shanling City and most of the magic apprentices, they are timid.
Walking on both sides of the road.
This class difference is just like the Wulian City where Lin just came to Lost Land. In the country of magicians, if you don't have a formal status, you are like a second-class person. And those who dare to compete with the official magicians
Apprentices, most of them have strong backers and quite high talents themselves.
There is nothing wrong with this. In a world that values personal power, the scene in Shanling City is the normal state of the Lost World. The anomalies in Wulian City are due to the booming business, which forces the mages to rely on them for many things.
There are far more ordinary people than magicians, so the distance between the two classes of people is slightly closer.
Of course, there is another situation where apprentices dare to walk in the middle of the road, just like the situation where Halumi and Kaya are serving the magician. Halumi is holding a horse in each hand, while Kaya is holding a horse.
He led a horse and a mule and followed behind the carriage. Lin slowly drove the carriage towards the place where the girl asked.
Along the way, Lin and his group attracted everyone's attention. This was not surprising. On the one hand, it was not a common sight for a magician from outside the Basque Country to be pulling a truck full of belongings. On the other hand, Fen
Her stunning beauty, her identity as a great magician from other places, and the items with colorful magical aura around her all stimulate people's primitive desires and greed.
The reason why no one took action rashly is that Fenner still played a big role in the two golden threads on the great chest.
It is true that great magicians recognized by other regions do not have the same treatment and recognition locally. However, the purpose of this rule is just to prevent parallel imports recognized by other regions from misleading people who are not familiar with the magician.
And misjudgment of strength.
If you have to perform some difficult tasks, a little misjudgment may cause huge losses.
But this definitely does not mean that anyone who is not recognized as a great magician by the local area is a target that can be bullied by anyone. If someone insists on achieving "merit" that is recognized by the local area as a great magician, no one will have much success.
Opinions. The local concept that outsiders are not allowed to bully the locals, so the locals must unite, does not exist in the world of the Lost Magician.
So even if they notice this group of newcomers from other places, they are also excited by the wealth they reveal. However, the local gangsters in Shanling City are just mobilizing their own forces to find out the details of this group of people. But it is unknown here.
On top of the undercurrent, Lin and his group successfully found the hotel Pigeon Song introduced by the gatekeeper.
The soldier guarding the gate is indeed used to seeing all kinds of people. He knows exactly what the questioner's needs are and gives the most appropriate answer. The Dove's Song is provided to the hotel used by caravans, not ordinary adventurers.
.The main difference is that the former requires a warehouse for parking vehicles, while the latter only needs a place to rest and eat.
Dove's Song is an inn run by a half-elf couple. Most of the helpers there are half-elves. And judging from their characteristics, the other half of their blood is not necessarily from humans. So it is different from the traditional impression of elves.
It has nothing to do with being handsome or anything like that.
This is also an aspect of the Lost World that Lin does not understand. According to the biological knowledge of the earth, there will be reproductive isolation between different races, that is, they cannot reproduce each other. Or the occasional hybrids will lose
The ability to reproduce. Such artificial hybrid creatures as mules and ligers.
But there seems to be no such restriction among the Homo sapiens species in the Lost Land. Between humans and elves, humans and orcs, orcs, dwarves and goblins, goblins and elves, no matter how they mate, they can all produce offspring.
, and even retain the ability to reproduce.
But this does not mean that the races in the Lost Land will cause chaos in appearance due to such random breeding. The racial characteristics of the offspring produced by different races have their own rules to follow. Goblins and
Orcs have the strongest genes. No matter what race the mother is, the offspring will still look like goblins or orcs.
The genes of orcs and humans are second. As long as the other half is not a goblin or half-orc, the offspring can retain at least a small part of their racial characteristics and look like orcs or humans. The genes of elves and dwarves are the weakest, as long as they are mixed.
Generations and above, there are almost no characteristics that belong to their race.
If mixed-race and mixed-race are combined, at most the characteristics of both races will be retained, depending on which one is stronger. The weaker one will become a recessive gene, and some descendants may be atavistic in the future.
The powerful gene that surpasses all races is the dragon race. Not only the Homo sapiens race, but also any living creature can produce offspring with the dragon race and retain some of the characteristics of the dragon race. This is true for humans, elves, even goblins, and half-bloods.
Something even the orcs can't do.
At least the centaurs were not born from humans fucking horses; and the group of orcs were not born from Homo sapiens fucking animals, or being fucked by animals. Winged horses are not born from horses fucking birds, nor are gryphons.
