MTL - The Record of Unusual Creatures-Chapter 1698 The secret of the empire

Hao Ren feels that it is difficult to understand how a large country like the Dragong Empire can maintain its efficient and stable operation. The direct rule of short-lived species in any case means many hidden dangers and troubles, if the emperor kneels down. If the legend says that he has inherited the dragon soul and never lives, then his way of thinking will inevitably change toward the longevity race, although he will accumulate tremendous wisdom and unimaginable experience in this process. But it is precisely because ordinary people can hardly imagine that he will have an insurmountable gap with his short-lived nationals.

To say a very simple example, when an eternal ruler decides to make a millennium plan for the benefit of all people, and his people can only live for a hundred years at most, this exhausted ten generations will not necessarily see hope. Can the plan really get the understanding and support of the people?

Hao Ren himself has not seen similar things, but in the database of the examiners, there is no shortage of practical cases in this regard.

But in front of this Dragun empire... seems to be running very well.

The Emperor of the Dragon Soul has an incredible prestige in this country. The emperor can see the majestic sculpture of the emperor wearing black armor everywhere. The emperor regards his emperor as an eternal protector and will obey the emperor. The order is regarded as a "natural logic" for granted. It seems that no one has ever questioned any order from the imperial capital. In the history of thousands of years, the turmoil in this empire is almost a handful, and every time Can be quickly settled.

At least, on the surface it seems that this country is simply stable.

This is the view that Hao Ren saw on the carriage and the summary of the information he heard from Ai Wenna. Of course, since he has just arrived in this country, the real situation of this country may take some time to understand. .

The "caravan" quickly found a place to settle in the town: there is a semi-official and semi-private nature of the "squatting place" specially prepared for this caravan walking in the empire, right in the middle of the town. Although Eleven and Charlemagne’s brothers and sisters could not move around the country because of their identity problems, they obviously accepted a very good common sense education, plus a special person in the accompanying guards who had a good understanding of the affairs of the Dragon Empire. Everyone settled down in the clinic without any effort.

After setting up in his own room, Hao Ren came to the window and pushed open the window sash with the inlaid diamond-shaped glass and the rose pattern. Because the floor is high and the civilian buildings are usually low, the town scenery will be completed at this moment. fundus.

The imperial buildings are dominated by dark colors, and the high and low undulating roofs continue to extend in the field of vision. The Gothic spires, eaves and small towers give the town a strange mysterious atmosphere. Although the town is not large in scale, it is not a rich place, but the town itself is still neat and tidy, and there are many well-organized shops and workshops on both sides of the town. It is a variety of large and small hotels: the sale of various alchemy props, the production of magical instruments and hotel accommodation is the main source of income for this town, and the customers are those who have passed through the towns and travellers around the town. The airship stops at the stop, and the stop is not large, but it also brings a lot of traffic to the place.

At this moment, the sun is shining, and the golden sun is spreading in this gothic town, which makes the row of towering roofs and towers shine. The mechanical sounds from the magic workshop are not obvious. Noisy, but it makes this place a wonderful warm atmosphere.

Suddenly there was a rush of horseshoes on the bluestone road that was getting thinner. The eyes of Hao Ren were attracted by this voice. He followed the sound and saw just a few knights who wore black armor and waist with black swords. The horse ran across the avenue below, and the head of the knight was holding a blue-and-double sword flag waving in the wind.

Pedestrians on both sides of the street shunned in front of several knights, which seemed quite awe.

Hao Ren frowned: that is the legendary Knight of the Black Sword Knights?

A moment later, a footstep sounded outside the door, and then a few regular knocks came. This must not be Lily. If it was Lily, she had already slammed the door and greeted herself.

Sure enough, from the door is the voice of Ai Wenna: "Mr. Hao Ren, may I come in?"

Hao Ren promised: "The door is not locked."

The door opened, the Princess Isu, who had beautiful light gray eyes, stood outside the door, and Charlemagne stood beside her.

Hao Ren let the two people into the house, and looked at them curiously: "Is there any problem?"

"Just to see if you are settled," Evana said generously. She couldn't see the so-called shelf and pride of the royal family. "It can be seen that such a hostel is far from your boat." I hope you can still adapt."

"Don't pay tribute, listen to not get used to it," Hao Ren waved his hand. "This condition is quite good. It is much better than what is going on in the cave. I have eaten some of the pains of the wind. I have succeeded in a religious world." People, can't you afford to be able to stand up to the royal family like you?"

Charlemagne's face showed a bit of a stiff smile: "Your way of speaking is really strange, I can understand the words, but the composition of sentences is not always easy to understand."

Hao Ren smiled and suddenly remembered the black knight who he saw in the window. He said: "You should have something else to look for. Let me say that I saw a few black knights running from below. Is that the legendary Black Sword Knights?"

Charlemagne and Avenina looked at each other and the prince gently nodded. "Yes, the Black Sword Knights are the kind of dresses. Their mechanical swords are unique in Lach Ryan and can be easily identified. ”

"Is the original thing a mechanical sword..." Hao Ren said, "Ah, I don't know much about the Black Sword Knights. Can you introduce them?"

"The Black Sword Knights are the symbol of the armed forces of the Dragon Empire and the most powerful regular army in the world." Ai Wenna always undertakes the task of introducing customs and customs. This time is no exception. "They directly obeyed The Emperor of the Dragon Empire has a very strict organization system. Every Black Sword Knight is an elite who has been selected from the best fighters. Not only must he be good at martial arts, but he must also be trained in magic. Also master a variety of knowledge including culture, history, pharmacy, and the ability to learn the unique 'Lin Yin' of the Black Sword Knights. These knights are usually distributed throughout the Empire and are responsible for maintaining the order of the country. And to convey the will of the emperor, but if they encounter the war, they can quickly integrate and form a legion, and the speed of integration and the high degree of teamwork are simply unbelievable."

Charlemagne added a few words: "They are scattered all over the country all year round. Many black sword knights will not meet each other even after leaving the barracks for more than ten years, but with a single order, they can quickly follow the compilation in the barracks. Forming the army, and without any process of re-familiarity and running-in, countries all over the world can't understand how they did it, and the imperial people directly called it the miracle of the emperor's majesty, and did not think about it."

“It’s really amazing,” Hao Ren’s admiration is from the heart. The black sword knight’s selection criteria and training process are amazing enough, and their special organization is more eye-opening, if not already known. After the legion of the guardian giant, there is a more disciplined drone army under his own hand. Hao Ren’s degree of exclamation at this time is estimated to have risen one step. “But you just said that they are the most powerful. 'Regular army', is there a more fierce person in the irregular army than those black sword knights?"

"Of course," Ai Wenna said faintly. "The Black Sword Knight is strong, but it is still a batch of trained soldiers. There are still many warriors in the world that cannot be measured by common sense, such as the Rune Warriors of the ancient country of Isso. The waver from the foggy strait, the Lin language of the white elves, in the case of single-on-one, they are stronger than the black sword knight, but they are rare to be a special unit that can be used as a national treasure, with the standard of 10,000 people The Black Sword Knights who make up the Legion cannot compare."

“Is there such an 'informal army elite' in the Dragong Empire?” Hao Ren asked curiously. Every country has its own super-powerful card, which is like the nuclear bomb. It is the responsibility of the ultimate threat of force. It is unreasonable that there is no such reserve in the Dragon Empire of Wu Liguo.

"Of course," Ivana nodded. "The Princess, the lady named "Dark Dragon Girl," personally led a sword-breaking knight, only one percent of the Black Sword Knights, but those who were broken. The sword knight's combat power is so strong that it is almost unbelievable. It is almost like a mortal. They never perform any tasks or the tasks they perform will not be known by an insider. That is the 'shadow ace' of the Dragon Empire. ......"

"Wait and so on," Hao Ren hurriedly yelled at each other. "How come this is a princess? The emperor of the Dragon empire has a daughter?"

What he actually wants to ask is that there is still a few sons and sisters under the eternal life of the immortal emperor, and those who are still not planning to inherit the throne have an emperor who is not dead or immortal, and then the Crown Prince is a troublesome profession. !

However, considering this problem seems to be less serious, he finally groaned and did not ask...

However, although I did not ask such a setback, Ai Wenna looked at Hao Ren with a strange look: "The world tree temple seems to be... it is very serious."

Hao Renfu does not change color: "That is, we are busy every day to maintain world peace in places you can't see."

The biggest advantage of his man is to tell the truth.

Ai Wenna sighed: "The Dragun Empire certainly has a princess, Constance Dragon, no one does not know her. But her father, the 'Eternal Emperor', Berendin Dragon actually There is no wife..."

Hao Ren’s eyes are different. It seems that there are still stories.

"I know what you are thinking, but it is best not to say it," Elvina shook her head. "No one knows the true origins of Princess Constance. People only know that two hundred and twenty years ago, Della There was a 'transformation' near the imperial capital of the tribute empire. It is said that a mountain disappeared overnight without a trace. The scene left only a large pit filled with hot lava, and Bernardin personally went to investigate. Then she brought back a baby girl and recognized it as a foster daughter, that is Princess Constance. Of course, people have guessed whether it is the illegitimate daughter of Her Majesty, after which it has passed two hundred and twenty years. And the princess of the princess is still youthful, she obviously has a non-human blood, but the voice of such doubts will never last... Over time, people no longer raise this topic."
