Chapter 21 Knights Palace and Magician Association
"good."
"The Knights Hall is a knightly organization led by the government and established mainly by the five major knights of the kingdom. All knights must register and accept the jurisdiction of the Knights Hall. They must go to the Knights Hall every month for a sit-in to prevent any changes."
"Correspondingly, the Knights Hall will provide each knight with a monthly allowance ranging from 10 pounds to 20 pounds."
"The Knights Palace will issue tasks to help other official organizations and catch some fugitives, lunatics, and cultists, thereby obtaining high bounties and rewards."
"The Knight's Hall controls low- to mid-sequence potion formulas and most of the main materials. As long as you accumulate enough merit, you can exchange for all items including potions in the Knight's Hall."
In the circle of extraordinary people, low-sequence refers to Sequence 9-Sequence 7, medium-sequence refers to Sequence 6-Sequence 5, and starting from Sequence 4 is high sequence, which is the saint level.
Marquis Bach carefully introduced some information about the Knights Hall to Hodge.
"Knights who are awarded the Knights Hall Medal, even the lowest level of the Bronze Medal, can obtain additional status and are treated better than ordinary citizens."
"O'Neill and Bessemer are the Bronze Knights awarded by the Knights Hall."
Hotch nodded slightly, indicating that he understood: "Father, what about the Magician Association? What's the situation over there?"
"The Magician's Association was originally founded by magicians at the saint level. After years of development, it has become a huge organization. Due to the large number of people in the organization and the high frequency of exchanging materials, it is difficult to supervise. Several incidents have occurred.
Once, due to the transaction of extraordinary materials, the users went crazy and massacred civilians. Finally, the kingdom's high-level officials ordered that the kingdom's magicians be dispatched to the Magicians Association to take charge of all affairs and register the magicians."
Marquis Bach continued: "At this point, the Magician Association has also become an official force, because the Sequence 9 of the Magician path is called apothecary, which is good at refining potions. Many internal commissions within the kingdom are handed over to the Magician Association.
Yes, so magicians have a very high status in the kingdom and are not under the rank of knights."
"Being able to join the Magician Association in the kingdom is a very honorable thing, and it is almost equivalent to having no worries about food and clothing, but refining potions is enough to allow civilians and citizens to live a prosperous life."
"But it's a pity that the mutation of the magic potion is too dangerous. Even if you swallow Sequence 9, there is a high probability of turning into a monster. There are not so many magic potions for most people to take, so people who can become magicians
, the number is still scarce.”
"Many people without family background will never have the chance to become a Sequence 9 pharmacist in their lifetime. Similarly, even if they want to become an apprentice and study in the Magician Association, they are not qualified."
"The Magician Association has a common name in every city, the Pharmacist Association. The name Magician has been hidden in order to conceal the nature of Magician practice from ordinary people and maintain the stability of various regions and families."
"A pharmacist is respected everywhere."
"The essence of a pharmacist's identity is that he is a magician who controls powerful magic."
"Magicians have corresponding magic robes, magic wands, flying broomsticks and other items. These can be purchased at the Magic Association."
After listening to Marquis Bach's narration, Hodge completely understood the magician path and the underlying logic that became the official support for the sequence path.
First of all, there is not enough cake to divide. The more people divide, the less cake will be eaten.
In order to ensure that the people at the top of the pyramid can eat the biggest cake possible, the most effective way is to reduce the number of people and control the number of extraordinary people.
This method is to control the Magician Association, register all magicians, prohibit them from leaking the magic potion formula, manage it uniformly, control the price, control the magicians, and let them work for the empire for potion materials and money.
.
At the same time, the empire is also very clear that if the people at the bottom know that professions such as magicians and pharmacists only need to take magic potions, they can become big shots in their eyes, rich people, and upper-class people in their eyes.
Even if they narrowly escape death, they will not obtain it at all costs and find ways to fight for a chance of survival.
A desperate person will never give up any chance.
This is not conducive to the rule of the kingdom, and it is not conducive to the operation of the entire kingdom. If everyone becomes Extraordinary, then Extraordinary people will become worthless. Besides, there are simply not so many materials to make such a large number of demons.
medicine.
Therefore, concealing and covering up the truth of the matter is the key to preventing chaos in the kingdom.
If everyone tries to find a way to reach the sky in one step and seize the magic potion, will there still be people farming, working, and working in factories?
The key to ensuring the operation of the kingdom is always the hard-working people at the bottom.
"Although it is officially supported, it must be a noble, and there are certain conditions, right?" Hodge asked softly after thinking about the underlying logic.
"Well, you need to pay a sum of money and register with the Magicians Association. Of course, you don't have to think about these. I will help you arrange it." Marquis Bach said lightly and said lightly.
Hodge knew that the amount of money his father, Marquis Bach, spoke of was by no means a small amount.
Because the kingdom must be limiting the number of pharmacists, if there are too many magicians, it will obviously not be conducive to rule.
Why control the Magicians Association?
The purpose is to control prices and allow magic potions to be sold at high prices, while at the same time preventing malicious involution and competition.
If there are too many wild magicians and they think the official potions are too expensive, they may use alchemy and pharmaceutical methods to refine low-price potions, flow into the market, and start to involuntarily begin.
This is not in the interest of the kingdom, let alone the interests of the magicians.
Things are valuable when they are rare. Once there are too many of them, they lose their value.
"Okay, you can have a good rest and think carefully about the next path, the magician and the knight. Think carefully about the two approaches, and give me an answer as soon as possible. I will send someone to prepare extraordinary materials for you." Marquis Bach stood up.
, said softly.
"Yes, father, I understand." Although Huo Qi had already decided to become a magician, since he had just woken up from a coma, it was not suitable to say it now. Huo Qi planned to wait until tomorrow to tell his father.
"Your mother will come to the castle in the evening. Remember to come down for dinner and don't let her worry." Marquis Bach explained.
"good."
Hotch nodded slightly, looking forward to communicating with his mother during dinner in the evening.
He was very curious, what exactly happened at Her Royal Highness the Princess's party?
He actually indirectly caused the entire castle to be massacred by the pagans and himself died?
Moreover, why would parents who rarely hold banquets and banquets hold a party on the night of the family extermination?
Is it a coincidence?
Or did someone do it on purpose?
Are you specifically guiding your parents to make this decision?
