From the perspective of the nobles, Zwei's behavior can be said to be almost unreasonable.
The ban on demons is indeed Demacia's consistent national policy, and the demon-seekers are indeed professionals responsible for banning demons. Zwei's new appointment as the commander of the demon-seekers does require the new officer to take office - but this does not mean that
This was the reason why he frantically went directly to the noble's house to collect magic items.
It should be noted that in Demacia, the ban on magic policy mainly targets those infected with magic, not magic items.
According to Demacia's magic ban logic, magicians are evil, and items contaminated with magic are no different from commonly used items as long as no magician uses them.
The main reason for the formation of this concept is not that the nobles wanted to open a back door for themselves from the beginning. The main reason is that if mages are regarded as a source of pollution and all items that may be contaminated with magic must be destroyed, then a random demon-contaminated person will wander around the capital.
If you run around a certain city area, Demacia will demolish this part of the city on its own.
Obviously, this kind of isolated magic ban is completely unrealistic, so from the beginning, Demacia's idea of banning magic has been very clear. It only pursues people, not objects, unless the magic items can be proven to "can make non-human beings"
The devil uses magic", otherwise it will not be dealt with.
There is no doubt that this method of judgment had a very positive practical significance when it was first proposed. It can not only ban magic, but also prevent Demacians from being restrained or even destroying the city walls. It is a pretty good judgment.
However, magic items do not require food or drink. It is much more difficult to track down magic items than to catch those infected with demons.
"Allowing non-demon-possessed people to use magic" sounds very simple. It seems that just trying it on anyone will produce results, but in fact this is not the case - there are many magic items that can be used by non-demon-possessed people, but their use requires
Some individual methods and tricks, if you don't know how to use them, they will appear to be ordinary magic items without danger.
As a result, a very large backdoor appeared.
Unlike a demon-contaminated person, who is almost unable to escape capture once discovered, even if a magic item is found to be contaminated with magic power, the demon-seeker has no power to deal with it.
Because the demon seekers cannot prove that these items with magical aura "can allow non-demon-stained people to use magic."
It is precisely for this reason that even though Demacia has always maintained a stance of banning magic, noble families with inheritance have also hoarded some magic items.
Like the great sword in Galen's hand.
Galen is not a demon-stained person, but when he uses this sword, he can activate the enchantment effect on it, which fully meets the standard of "allowing non-demon-stained people to use magic."
But except for Galen, it is difficult for anyone else to activate the special effects of this great sword. Even if the magic seekers want to prove that this is a magic item that needs to be dealt with, there is no way to prove it.
This situation is not unique among nobles. Many families have even preserved a magical item with great power from time to time. It may be a weapon, armor, or other things such as amulets. These things are similar to
Like Galen's great sword, it has extraordinary magical power, but it will not be confiscated by magic hunters.
At first, Silas insisted that the ban on demons was the oppression of common people by nobles. This was largely due to this reason - as a member of the demon searchers, he had seen it on many noble manors, weapons and even accessories.
All kinds of magic, but even so, he couldn't take away their magic items.
The nobles clearly knew about the existence of magic, and even used it intentionally or unintentionally, but they were not punished in any way. On the contrary, civilians who did not use magic unintentionally were required to take magic-forbidden potions because of their natural contamination, and were punished.
to exile, even imprisoned in a magic-forbidden prison...
Garen's ability to become the famous Demacia is indeed largely due to his hard training, but who can tell clearly how much proportion his sword plays in it?
When the civilians of Demacia relied on the hard-earned savings of three or four generations to purchase a set of equipment and a war horse for their most promising child, and sent him to the battlefield in the hope that he could make achievements, they were completely
They didn't realize that the noble children who competed with their own children not only had advantages in nutritional conditions, physical fitness, fighting skills, etc., but they even had many magic items to "cheat" for them.
In this case, no matter how fair Demacia's military merit system is, it is destined that some people will be born in Rome, and some people will be born as mules.
The anti-demon system that was once created to protect the common people of Demacia has gradually become a means for the nobles to suppress the common people, silently eroding the only avenue for advancement through military merit.
As the king of Demacia, Jarvan IV knew the truth clearly.
Therefore, with his support, Zwei, who was known as the mad dog, did not hesitate to light the first fire of the new official's appointment.
After making preparations, he returned to the fiefdom of the Godin family again after many years, and as the leader of the Demon Searchers, he confiscated almost all the magic items in the family.
Others don't know how to use these magic items...Zwei knows!
After demonstrating how these spears, swords, talismans and armor "allowed non-demon-stained people to use magic", he did not hesitate to empty the Godin family's treasury, making his father faint on the spot.
The scene can only be described as a loving father and a filial son.
However, the nobles who were supposed to be eating melon happily could no longer laugh.
Because everyone with a discerning eye has already seen that, after Zwei’s troubles, the Gotin family is almost finished from now on.
Having lost their family heritage, the Gotin family can only become wealthy locals from now on. When their descendants step onto the battlefield again, they will almost stand on the same starting line as the common people.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! There is no doubt that Zwei's behavior can be described as more than just a "mad dog". This behavior of the demon searcher has touched the nobles.
The foundation of inheritance - status inheritance.
The ability of aristocrats to be masters from generation to generation mainly relies on the huge branches supported by their fiefdoms. In addition, additional points such as family heirlooms should not be underestimated.
If the magic searchers keep an eye on each family's inherited items in the future, don't be shy and use magic appraisal on them like they did this time... I'm afraid not many nobles can resist this kind of harassment.
It has only been quiet for a few years, is your Majesty going to stir up a dispute between the nobles and the royal family again?
The Parliament of the Nobles, which had been reduced to a mere face-saving project, once again experienced a rare moment of excitement. When it came to the fundamental issues of the nobility, even though Jarvan IV was in power, the nobles still had to work hard and never allow Mad Dog Ci to do anything.
Will Wei continue to be so crazy!
Under such circumstances, Jarvan IV, who had not personally participated in the meeting before, rarely attended in formal attire.
Faced with the request of other nobles, "Although the Gotins are bastards, the devil-seekers who go to other people's houses to search the nobles' treasury at the slightest disagreement must be prohibited." Jarvan IV first expressed his sorrow.
It seems that he is really sighing for the fall of the Godin family.
Then, he came up with a familiar mediation method and said, "The Godin family is an accident after all. The dignity and honor of the nobles are the dignity and honor of Demacia. If it is not a last resort, then the magic searcher will not choose
Using such drastic measures."
He speaks better than he sings.
Even if they knew that Jarvan IV was lifting the roof, the nobles present could only nod in agreement, and then ask insinuatingly what the "last resort" was.
Satisfied with the acquaintance of the nobles, Jarvan IV happily said, "If the nobles cannot control the order in their fiefdoms, and the demon-tainted people cause any trouble, then the demon-hunters will have no choice but to track it down to the end." and so on.
Then he added, "Of course, we all know that mages are always a cunning group of people, so I think that in order to avoid similar tragedies from happening, demon seekers should be more involved in daily patrols in various places to prevent the slightest mistake...
"
Good guy!
Upon hearing this, the nobles and representatives of the nobles present reacted quickly.
After taking away the military power of the nobles, Jarvan IV is now going to take action on the law and order power!
But after reaction, even though they understood Jarvan IV's purpose, the nobles and noble representatives present were still full of doubts.
Why law and order power?
In the eyes of most nobles, the power of public security is a completely thankless power - maintaining security in the territory also costs a lot of money. Is the royal family full of food?
However, after thinking about it for a while, many people who responded quickly understood the subtleties.
Although the power of public security will not bring the most direct benefits, it is the most direct way of contact between the lord and the subjects. In other words, the power of security is the most direct help that the lord can provide to himself that the common people can feel.
.
Civilians had to pay taxes, perform labor services, and abide by the rules set by local lords. In this process, almost the only positive feedback they received was the guarantee of personal safety.
It is no exaggeration to say that maintaining local security is almost the only responsibility and positive connection that the noble lords of Demacia have with the civilians under their rule.
In the eyes of most civilians, after working hard and paying taxes and doing labor service, it is not because they are noble nobles, but because they are lords who control the future promotion channels of their descendants (joining the army) and can protect their own.
Safety.
Once the power of security is deprived by the royal family, and the security of all parts of Demacia will be handled by organizations directly under the royal family, will the common people everywhere still respect the lord?
Even if the common people still maintain respect for their lords under Demacia's order framework, once the royal family continues to put pressure on the lords, and there is a conflict between the royal family's orders and the lord's orders, which side will the civilians everywhere take?
Woolen cloth?
Is it the royal family that controls the force (the army), the channels for advancement (joining the army and becoming knighted), and the responsibility for security (police power)?
Or what about the lord who just collects taxes without doing anything?
You can figure this out even if you think about it on your knees.
Although he didn't really want to be kind to the people, he saw that Jarvan IV had made up his mind to strengthen the direct connection between the royal family and the common people, and seemed to completely abandon the nobles and do their own thing. The nobles came to their senses.
Finally, they all realized that they could never regress here.
After a short adjournment, the noble representatives quickly reached an agreement and resolutely opposed the roaming blue hyenas - the reason was also ready, after all, Demacia is a glorious kingdom.
Their glory was tarnished and their face was thrown to the ground. The family involved was indeed doomed to collapse, but wasn't this a blow to the entire Demacia?
The glorious nobles were reduced to dust amidst the ridicule of the common people. Is it just the worth of the ruined nobles that was lost?
And a royal face!
The nobles rule the common people. This is the fundamental order of Demacia. Will the royal family eventually take back everything the Demacian nobles have in their own fiefdoms and hand it over to the royal family for their own management?
If so, is Demacia still Demacia?
At a time of life and death, the nobles who had been holding each other back finally regained some unity. They resolutely resisted the demon seekers entering their territory. Their resolute attitude completely exceeded Jarvan IV's expectations.
Shouldn't it be like this?
Facing the raging public opinion, Jarvan IV couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
According to the consistent moral character of nobles everywhere, they have never cared about the power of public security, which has no direct benefits.
What is going on today? Why do these people seem to have enlightened themselves?
If they are so determined...then I'm afraid I need to stop temporarily and think carefully about my next move.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Jarvan IV really just wanted to further weaken the power of the nobles and make them become trustees instead of little kings in their own fiefdoms.
Demacians must not be allowed to "know only the lord and not the king."
He never thought about turning the nobility into a title in name only. After all... Demacia does need the nobility to rule.
In the end, the meeting broke up unhappy, and the two sides did not reach any unified opinion on the issue of public security rights.
Then, just when Jarvan IV was about to summon Zwei and ask him to slow down his actions a little, Zwei showed amazing efficiency.
As soon as the meeting ended, a second fire was lit in Zwei.
This time, he personally led a team to hunt down a demon-stained person and entered the noble fiefdom. When the Sheriff tried to stop him, he took action and captured both the Sheriff and the demon-stained person.
This isn't the end yet.
What's even worse is that Zwei repeated what he had done in the Gotin family. This unfortunate noble lord's treasure house was forcibly opened in the name of investigating the case, and most of the treasures in it were proved by Gotin.
They were dangerous magic items and all were confiscated.
The second noble lord fell to Zwei's bite.
The mad dog seemed completely crazy.
Under such a situation, the noble council finally responded - with the help of thoughtful people, they quickly found a reason to resist the mad dog.
"Twelve years ago, when the demon seekers exposed their unprofessionalism, Your Excellency Count Laxana had already proved her ability with actions. Compared with the demon seekers, Lark, who is a climber like your majesty,
Your Excellency Shanna is undoubtedly more professional in dealing with the issue of demon-contaminated people. If there are any issues related to demon-contaminated people, we can definitely contact your Excellency Laxana for a more flexible and decent handling - the royal family had better put a chain on the mad dog.
