Chapter 8 Arrival at Bear Pig Town
The extraordinary and the ordinary, or the adventurers and the settlers.
Although adventurers are divided into different levels according to their personal combat power, and although there are also nobles, wealthy people and other classes among the settlers.
However, the 'Adventurers' who represent the extraordinary and the 'Settlers' who represent ordinary people are the two groups of people who together constitute the main components of human society.
The extraordinary people need ordinary people, because the extraordinary people also need clean cities, neat roads, drainage systems, and flush toilets.
Extraordinary people are not interested in growing food, raising livestock, building infrastructure, engaging in endless battles with ordinary people, or getting excited about politics all day long.
Greater strength and healthier bodies allow them to pursue more mysteries, excitement and treasures. They are not interested in having children early, and most of them are not interested in having a bunch of "burdens" that would affect their lives.
The settlers with a larger population base are responsible for production labor, for the reproduction of the human race, for the replenishment of new blood for the adventurer group, and for trivial logistical production.
Adventurers fight against monsters and bring back more resources and technologies to human society. At the same time, they also enjoy the civilized world created by settlers.
Therefore, the extraordinary people in this world cannot do whatever they want. The Elanta Federation can be said to be a world where extraordinary people and ordinary people co-govern.
The nobles, aristocratic families, wealthy people, and entrepreneurs among the ordinary people manage the society, economy, culture, etc. of the human world.
If we put aside the courtyard and call the three main stars of the Elanta Federation the human world, in the human world, powerful adventurers must also obey and cooperate with the policies and regulations of the residents to a large extent.
Because this way professional adventurers can also have an easier time.
The human world, where the roots of humanity lie, is the rear base where adventurers can rest in peace, but this is the world of the settled.
Professional adventurers have their own world - the courtyard.
That is the world of adventurers, where the rules and laws of the human world are more like a kind of moral standard. Adventurers can gain wealth and power in the courtyard, and can also return to the human world to enjoy the beauty of the world.
A human society where settlers and adventurers co-govern.
The strong ones in the adventurer group will even help the residents to restrain and crack down on the warriors who act recklessly in the human world.
Because the extraordinary need ordinary people. This need may be more important than ordinary people need the extraordinary.
It’s hard to talk about equality, but in the human world, adventurers often need to be more cautious when facing settlers than when facing adventurers themselves.
This is because if one uses extraordinary power to harm ordinary people without reason, he will be attacked and punished from more aspects.
Fairness, protection, and even partiality. You can deceive and seduce, but you cannot oppress.
Let’s not talk about the problems of lack of soul elements and reproductive degradation in the life forms cultivated from embryos.
Although the starting point of all this is based on the premise of humanity, it is undeniable that its essence is that extraordinary people need ordinary people.
. . . . . .
The Magic Empire is also called the Loren Empire because it is the most powerful empire on the Loren planet.
The carriage was traveling on the highway in the Earldom of Bridges in the north of the Loren Empire.
The so-called earldom is the territory of the nobles. However, with the passage of time, the emperor of the empire has become a mascot-like existence, and these noble territories are more like provinces filled with complex social relationship networks.
Functional departments and wealthy tycoons dominate many aspects of local politics, economy, military and other affairs.
Here is the beautiful and prosperous coastal city of the Loren Empire, Haiman City. It is also the area where Mu Hua is located.
He was now heading to Bear Pig Town, a small town under the jurisdiction of Heyman City.
Because a new "courtyard" appeared in Bear Pig Town in recent years, the originally remote town is in an overdrive mode.
I think it won’t be long before this somewhat vulgar town name will be cancelled, and this place will become an important and prosperous urban area in Heyman City.
Extraordinary and ordinary people?
Through Samantha's casual introduction, Mu Hua roughly understood Loren's definition of extraordinary and ordinary people.
Loren has a large population of adventurers, and the positioning of settlers here is more vague than that of Lanton.
In the Magic Empire, generally speaking, as long as the residents have magic weapons obtained through legal means and can cause fatal damage to low-level monsters in the "courtyard", they can go to the Adventurer's Guild to apply to become an adventurer.
Even if you don't fight monsters, do odd jobs, or run errands in the courtyard, you can still get corresponding rewards from the Adventurer's Guild. You can also hang out in some safer courtyards or even settle down.
In practical terms, only those with a single attribute of more than 50 points and the power to confront a first-level monster head-on can be considered a true adventurer.
When a certain attribute exceeds 150 points and one has the ability to fight mid-level monsters to a certain extent, he can be considered a true demon hunter.
Demon hunters are also known as professional adventurers. In the Magic Empire, this stage also draws the clearest dividing line between adventurers and settlers.
In other words, when a single attribute exceeds 150 points, unless you find a factory and sign a long-term labor contract to "tighten the screws", don't talk about being a settled person.
Adventurer is the most common and general term used by ordinary people to refer to those who work in combat professions, and demon hunter is a qualified class among adventurers.
Above the Demon Hunter is the Brigade's main combatant who can fight to the death with conventional high-level monsters and truly masters supernatural powers.
At this point, there are too many uncertainties involved in magic, combat skills, talents, traits, etc.
It is difficult to judge combat power based on attributes alone, and there is no special organization to certify it. Strength and reputation all depend on daily combat records. If you have outstanding combat records, the personnel of the Brigade Alliance will contact you.
Next is the Shadow of the Laurel, and finally the King at the top of the adventurers. Their daily activities have a strong symbol of function among adventurers.
Mu Hua didn't have a clear understanding of the specific positioning of these two levels in terms of combat power, he only knew that the combat power span was extremely large. After all, he was essentially no different from the Anju people.
It is rumored that the main combat personnel of the brigade who fight against high-level monsters must have an attribute of at least 500 in a single item.
Samantha said that those things were too far away from him and did not explain them to Mu Hua. She even used her daughter, who had wanted to form a brigade since she was a child, as a negative example and teased her.
Of course, it includes magic and combat skills that are difficult to assess accurately. The standards for fighting against monsters of different ranks mentioned here mostly refer to strength and intelligence attributes.
With a spiritual attribute of less than 50, like Mu Hua, he should be a "dissuading example" who could be stabbed in the back by the goblins at any time.
"It's okay, you are still young and your level is low enough, so there is still a lot of room for growth." Samantha comforted him, and Mu Hua felt complicated.
The spacious road forked, and next to the fork, the towering fortifications equipped with T71 long-range cluster magic cannons blocked the view from afar.
Turning down the fork in the road is the area of Bear Pig Town. The defensive fortifications scattered around the town are mainly to prevent the monsters in the "courtyard" from running away and rushing out of the courtyard, and to prevent the monsters from coming to the human world and wreaking havoc.
These fortifications are maintained year round and are not usually activated.
Because if a demonic tide appears in the courtyard, "brigades" from all over the world will gather there. They will be the first to enter the courtyard to fight against the demons until they can no longer be eliminated or resisted.
When the brigade retreats to the human world and when the monsters rush out of the courtyard, these defenses will be activated.
And at that time, people may be lucky enough to see the legendary king leading the Shadow of the Crown to appear on the front line of the battle.
Well, of course, there should also be 'brave men'.
However, the "heroes" in this world are so ridiculous that Mu Hua feels both amused and helpless whenever he thinks about them.
"Due to some family rules, I cannot enter Bear Pig Town for the time being. Please get off here." After stopping the carriage, Samantha said to Mu Hua.
"Well, don't worry, I will do my best." Mu Hua nodded and looked towards the road leading to Xiongzhu Town with determination in his eyes. When he stood up, he brushed up his bangs in front of his forehead, and even exuded a bit of bandit spirit.
"With all your heart? With what heart? With Tabitha? Is this kid not good with girls?" Samantha was stunned.
As for helping Tabitha conquer the courtyard, Samantha didn't think much about it.
The so-called strategy for the courtyard is more of a farce caused by the illegitimate child, and it may be an impossible trial at all.
Without further communication, Mu Hua got out of the carriage and walked onto the road leading to Bear Pig Town.
This piece of land is the new starting point of his life.
After completing the task that Samantha hinted at and killing those three illegitimate children, perhaps this will be his new home!
Samantha was holding Helen's hand and telling her something. Mu Hua walked forward alone. After turning a corner, the view in front of him suddenly opened up.
The higher terrain gave Mu Hua a broader view. Country-style buildings were distributed in disorder. Looking around, the main road stretched out. Because there were large areas covered with vegetation, the town covered a large area.
Further away, on the outskirts of the town, tall buildings are rising from the ground. This originally remote and quiet town is bound to attract the prosperity of a modern city because of the emergence of the "courtyard".
The area on the east side where a roadblock fortress can be vaguely seen should be the entrance to the courtyard.
On the distant avenues and paths, scattered pedestrians could be seen in the blurry vision, civilians in ordinary clothes, adventurers carrying weapons and armor, and pets following their masters. Looking at all that caught his eye, Mu Hua's lips curled up with a smile.
A black youth came towards him, staggering with every step. Mu Hua took a deep breath. He liked the aura he felt from the young man.
A scoundrel, slick, with signs of being addicted to magic on his face, Mu Hua smiles more often. He likes this kind of temperament, or he is more accustomed to dealing with people with this kind of temperament.
"Bang!" There was a slight collision. On the wide road, neither Mu Hua nor the young man gave way to the other. Their shoulders collided and both of them shook.
"Hey! Dog shit! You hurt me!" The young man cried out in pain at Mu Hua's back.
"Bang!" A dull pain came over his head, and while the shouting young man was distracted, the pistol that hit his forehead had already stabbed his jaw hard.
A stranger from another place, alone, dressed in ordinary clothes. The black youth just wanted to test the other party, find out his background, and maybe ask for some money.
But the guy in front of him, who was almost a head shorter than him, actually pulled out a pistol without saying a word.
The inscription was very impressive and the pistol was very large. The black youth didn’t know anything specific, he only knew that the gun should be very expensive, so expensive that people without a certain level of financial strength could not afford it.
"Hey, dear brother, what did you say?" Mu Hua put his arm around the young man's shoulders, made him bend his back, and poked the barrel of the gun into the soft flesh of his jaw. With a sinister smile on his face, he asked the young man.
"Damn it, you..." the young man tried to resist.
"Click!" The sound of the revolver firing pin stopping the young man from speaking.
Glancing at Mu Hua's eyes, the young man's heart skipped a beat; 'He's serious! He's not a good person!'
