Riding on the horse he won in an inexplicable duel, Luo Jie quickly arrived at the Imperial City, the largest empire in this half of the continent.
In fact, the empire was named after the first emperor's surname when it was founded.
But maybe out of personal interest, the first emperor added too many titles and fictitious characters to his surname to show honor and martial arts, and even created several special royal characters that even the great sages could not read, so that To write down the full name of the empire, it would take at least half a page of characters. Not only would it be easy to make mistakes when writing hundreds of letters, but it would also make you bite your tongue when reading.
So over time, it became a common rule among the people to just call them "Empire". Later, even some official internal documents of the Empire that did not need to be too formal would use this abbreviation.
Why do you need to suddenly explain this seemingly unrelated topic? That's because - the full name of the Imperial City was also named after His Majesty the first emperor.
Luo Jie stood in front of the stone tablet with the full name of the imperial capital written on it outside the gate of Ma City. After looking at it halfway, he felt his eyes were dazzled. His eyes repeatedly jumped around and couldn't find the focus, so he simply touched it to the end.
¡°Well, the Imperial Capital, that¡¯s it, drive!
Luo Jie easily entered the largest city in the empire after paying a few copper coins to the guards at the city gate.
"Compared with the false prosperity of the world imperial capital in "Zhan Hong" that looked like flowers and brocade, but was actually cooked by burning fire, the prosperity of this imperial capital is visible and tangible.
Whether it is a spacious and tidy square, a busy street, or a noisy and lively market, you can see people with happy smiles on their faces everywhere.
Of course, they are all humans.
And most of the demi-humans within sight are wearing dirty and simple clothes, doing the hardest and most tiring jobs, or they are simply mercenary adventurers covered with scars or beautiful and carefree young ladies.
The empire¡¯s discriminatory attitude towards demi-human races is clearly reflected in this city, even more openly than in other territories and vassal states.
Luo Jie randomly found a hotel that looked relatively clean. After checking in, he left the horses in the hotel and walked around the nearby market alone.
Although he has not yet seen those people from the other side of the "door" in the imperial capital, a small number of modern industrial products can already be seen on the market.
Considering that the team is not wasting precious transportation capacity on the wholesale of small commodities, it is estimated that these modern products should be diplomatic gifts flowing out from some shady channels.
But what about those fan books and photo albums? Is it considered a cultural exchange
The scale of the imperial capital is far larger than imagined. Luo Jie only visited a small corner area, and it was already almost dusk.
By comparing the notes on the [Encyclopedia of the World: Longo Longo], Luo Jie found the Imperial City Adventurer's Guild.
This is actually not a vulgar otherworld setting, there are similar ones in modern society.
It would be very familiar if we call it another name - the labor market.
Luo Jie did not come to register as an adventurer. He simply sat in the tavern directly operated by him. He ordered a high-calorie set meal and a glass of ale, which are favorite adventurers. He sat quietly in an inconspicuous corner and raised his eyebrows. Listen to the braggadocio of those idle adventurers.
"Have you heard? Those men in green have begun to expand the wall of Arnus Hill again. This seems to be the third expansion this year. This time the foundation has been laid to the foot of the mountain. Now the entire mountain is It¡¯s been taken over by these aliens.¡±
"So what? Those human nobles don't have to worry about it, why should you, a demi-human, worry about it? Anyway, I won't go to the empire for this recruitment. God knows what day I will have to go to war with those men in green with terrible magic weapons. I don't want to. Go and be cannon fodder for those human nobles."
¡°That¡¯s right, in this comparison, it¡¯s safer to be an adventurer Then you say, is the empire willing to watch its territory being occupied bit by bit by those men in green?¡±
"I'm sure you won't give in. Why else would the Senate be noisy all day long?"
"Buthundreds of thousands of troops have been defeated. After all, the only way for the empire to go is to negotiate peace, right?"
"That's not necessarily true. There are reliable rumors that the empire's eldest princess, Her Royal Highness Latis, secretly summoned a number of great magicians to activate the ultimate magic developed by the first emperor. "
"Ah? Is it the legendary and unreliable summoning of heroes? Doesn't it mean that no one has ever succeeded except the first emperor?"
"Success is success, but it is said that the courage summoned?He was a pervert wearing only a pair of shorts. He gave the eldest princess a hug and threw her in a bridge style, and then ran off to nowhere. "
Hearing this, Luo Jie spat out a sip of ale.
¡°Just nowdid something strange sneak in?
"The eldest princess was also ill and sought medical treatment. Historically, the mission of a brave man is either to destroy the devil or to slay a dragon. Facing those men in green, I think even a brave man may not be able to withstand it."
"That is to say, those men in green have only occupied Arnus Hill and have no intention of attacking them. Why bother provoking them for the sake of face? With the extra troops, go and attack the villages everywhere. Wouldn't it be better to kill the "Fire Dragon"? "
"I heard that the Third Princess "Pingna" proposed several times to lead her "Rose Knights" to defeat the Flame Dragon, but was rejected by His Majesty the Emperor. "
"The third princess is a good person, but it's a pity that she is only the tenth in line to succeed. She will never be crowned the emperor. Otherwise, we demi-humans would have an easier time."
"Alas, even if there was the Flame Dragon first and then the Man in Green, the empire would still be as majestic and steady as a mountain. It would be great if we demi-humans also had such a country"
"There are too many races among us demi-humans. Each race has its own customs and interests. It is difficult to unite with unified opinions"
"Back then, the Winged Tribe and the Hobbit Tribe, these two flying races, also tried to join forces to fight against the Empire. They relied on the steep mountains to fight against the Empire for more than ten years. However, in the end they were captured by the Empire due to internal divisions. Even the original The winged human princesses have become prisoners for the human nobles to play with for fun."
"Many of the female branches of the Winged Tribe and the Hobbit Tribe in the black streets are noble women from the original alliance of the two flying races. After the empire captured them, they broke their wings, leaving them without the ability to make a living by flying. With no ability, I can only survive by selling my body and humiliating myself"
"So those bird people are so pitiful? Then I have to take care of their business tonight. I heard that the body temperature of these flying races is higher than that of our beast races, hehehehe"
"It's said to be good, but I'm allergic to feathers"
"Haha, you are really unlucky. I will share my feelings with you when I come back tomorrow."
Hearing this, Luo Jie raised his hand and snapped his fingers at the passing waiter, pointed at the two big-mouthed pig-headed men sitting next to him, and said: "Waiter, the bills of these two friends will be mine. By the way, I will pay these two friends." Two and a barrel of ale.¡±
When you show courtesy to others, you must ask for something.
The two pig-headed men can be regarded as veterans here, and they know all the rules among adventurers. They looked at each other and nodded, got up and sat at Luo Jie's table.
"This friend is very unfamiliar. Is he new to the guild?"
Luo Jie raised his glass and smiled; "I'm not from the imperial capital, I'm just a merchant passing through."
As he spoke, two gold coins popped out of his hand, rolling with charming golden light, and landed on the table in front of the two pig-headed men one after another.
"Can you tell me more about the aliens and the hobbit girls?"
The two pig-headed men quickly grabbed the gold coins on the table with a dexterity that was not commensurate with their bodies. The two pairs of wretched bean eyes revealed the mysterious smile of an old driver.
