Upon hearing this, Mozo couldn't help but look carefully at the two horses of the person in charge, and then Mozo couldn't help but nodded.
Although in his eyes, this is not a good horse, but it is indeed a qualified war horse.
Wait? Why did war horses appear in a private car dealership
Mozo looked the two horses up and down again. They didn't look like war horses that had to retire due to age. These were strong and mature horses of the right age!
In this situation, either the person in charge has great connections, or the military and political affairs are too lax!
The former is obviously impossible, so...
After realizing this, Mozo's eyes twitched again.
Mozo didn't say anything more. He just got into the carriage pulled by the person in charge and let the other party take him out of the city.
However, at the city gate, Mozo encountered a small incident.
With the pass issued by the Viscount and the church, Mozzo should have been able to travel freely, but he was still stopped at the city gate.
Not long after, the person in charge pushed open the car door helplessly and said to Mozo:
"Here, we have encountered some problems."
"Is there something wrong with the pass I gave you?"
"It's not, it's just."
Needless to say, after seeing the soldiers with smirks on their faces outside the door through the gaps in the person in charge's body, Mozo knew the situation.
The soldiers defending the city certainly wouldn't dare to deny the usefulness of these two certificates, but after seeing that there are really people who are suckers buying these things, they probably also want to get some benefits.
After Mozo lowered his head and smiled, he handed two church gold coins to the person in charge.
The person in charge was shocked and said:
“You gave too much!”
Mozo shook his head and said:
"The other one is for when you come back."
The person in charge was stunned when he heard this, then he looked at Mozo deeply and got off the carriage to negotiate with the other party.
With Mozo's generous donation, there was no obstacle to leaving the city.
In the slightly shaking carriage, Mozo took out a Duze gold coin, a church gold coin and a Hazel gold coin respectively, and examined them in his hands.
Because of his identity, Mozo has gradually lost his sensitivity to these things.
So if it weren't for that priest, he would have ignored the difference between the three types of gold coins until now.
After carefully examining them, Mozo also discovered the differences between the three gold coins. The one with the purest color and the best appearance was naturally the Duze gold coin, followed closely by the church gold coin, which was obviously a level lower in color and appearance. The last one was the Hazel gold coin.
Mozo took out the nameless book again and slowly investigated the quality of the gold coins of that year.
Finally, Mozo helplessly discovered that during the Aragon period, although the church gold coins were slightly inferior to the Duze gold coins in appearance due to the war, the quality was of the same purification limit.
The Hazel gold coin not only changed in appearance, but also had a much worse quality. It became almost the same as the average Grand Duchy.
The problem explained here is quite big. After all, according to common sense, the Victory Church is a force as big as Duze.
The Hazel Empire is a recognized first-class empire that is stronger than the Heather Empire.
So in theory this shouldn’t be a problem caused by the decline of power. If it is a decline of power, then it can only be that the financial system is corrupt beyond recognition, right
And with the finances so corrupted, why did the Church of Victory and Hazel continue to move forward overall
If we want to keep moving forward despite the constant internal problems, we can only have a greater source of interests to accommodate and absorb all the drawbacks.
But what is the source of this benefit
A new question appeared in Mozo's mind.
Soon, Mozo found the answer to this question.
Because the carriage that Mozo was riding in suddenly braked.
Mozo was as steady as a rock and did not fall because of his extraordinary physique.
But this situation is obviously wrong.
Mozo immediately pushed open the carriage door, and then a large caravan came into view.
This was a very large group, so large that even Mozo wasn't sure whether it was a caravan or an army.
Not only did the other party have extraordinary items that could illuminate the team, but thanks to these extraordinary items, Mozo was able to see more things.
On both sides of the team were a large number of well-equipped armed personnel. Mozo speculated that these people should be from the Hazel Army or the Church's Guardian Army. In the middle of the team were huge prisoner cars flashing countless inscriptions one after another.
Imprisoned inside the prison van were countless demihumans, mostly orcs.
Looking at those lifeless orcs and subhumans.
Mozo probably understood the source of the other party's benefits that allowed them to continue moving forward despite numerous disadvantages.
314 I don't think it's enough! (4k)
In Mozo's hometown, the only difference between people is their birth. In essence, everyone has one head and two arms, and will still die if a noble master cuts them with a knife.
Therefore, when the pressure reaches a certain point, the bottom layer, which occupies an absolute number, will change the structure of the pyramid.
But in this extraordinary world of bastards, the more noble the gentlemen are, the less likely they are to be killed.
The bottom class in this world is not to mention comparable to the top class, even compared to the middle class, there is a gap of two species.
Therefore, since ancient times, there have been few pure cases of the lower class revolting against the upper class in this world of bastards. Even if it occasionally occurs, it is basically some foreign upper class helping the poor local lower class for some purpose that is in their own interests.
Otherwise, the huge gap in military strength will make resistance futile.
However, no matter how outrageous the world is, you still need to follow certain rules. For example, ordinary people have little chance of resisting successfully, but the prerequisite is that you also have to keep yourself stable internally.
Otherwise, not only will the bosses from outside want to cause trouble for you, but even your hungry brothers within the company will try every means to cause trouble for you.
So it’s okay to oppress the lower classes, and it’s okay for the country to have countless problems, but there must be something that can accommodate all these contradictions!
And what is now presented before Mozo is the answer from the Church of Victory and the Cold Land Countries.
Those were the demihumans this team had detained in countless giant prison vans.
Looking at those lifeless demi-humans, Mozo guessed that the Church of Victory and the Cold Land Countries might not just be buying and selling demi-human slaves as a source of income.
Simple human exploitation cannot cover up the various shortcomings currently exposed by this interest group.
Therefore, Mozo believed that these people might be doing another taboo activity that had long been tacitly abolished by all parties besides engaging in the sub-human trade - the extraordinary ranch!
That is the common supernatural breeding. This process is actually not complicated. It can be roughly divided into two categories. One is to use the characteristics of certain sub-populations to continuously breed them until the number is appropriate. These bred sub-humans will be "harvested" to produce "supernatural characteristics"!
For example, the goblins who disgust everyone naturally possess some extraordinary characteristics of the puppet path, but after the Sun King issued the hunting order, the number of goblins plummeted to almost extinction.
Later, Cromwell also issued several orders to strangle goblins and offered a reward for their skulls. At this point, goblins went from being almost extinct to the point where even a few of their bones could be found.
At the same time, if someone hadn't found a replacement for the goblins, the Sun King and Cromwell's order to exterminate the goblins would probably not have been executed so smoothly. Even though goblins are recognized as a disgusting race that should be exterminated.
After all, if goblins were gone, many people would lose a stable profit chain, and this profit chain was naturally a subordinate characteristic of breeding goblins to produce dolls.
The other type besides these is even simpler and more direct. Don’t many of these methods require specific rituals
For example, if you want to advance to Sequence 6 in the Puppet Path, you must either become the top puppeteer in a large city, or you must use the skull of a goblin hero as a strengthening potion to skip the ceremony.
So in this case, is it more difficult to complete the ceremony honestly, or to go to a goblin-breeding merchant and directly buy a goblin hero's skull
This situation is obvious.
Apart from this situation, some people directly use subhumans to complete the other party's rituals. For example, Sequence 7 of the Lightning Path requires killing seven enemies with lightning. Sequence 6 of the Clown Path requires fooling the fate of an intelligent creature...
All of these can be done directly by sub-humans, and merchants with rich breeding experience can even directly provide a full range of services from sequence ten to so many levels for certain channels!
These two categories are the biggest selling points of extraordinary breeding, and are also extremely popular in the middle and late stages of the Age of Gods.
However, with the end of the Age of Gods, all parties were in urgent need of recovering their strength, and this behavior of clearly treating the lives and even souls of intelligent creatures as resources and consumables was tacitly abolished by all parties.
Although there is no conclusive evidence now, Mozo feels that he should have seen the revival of the "industry" of the Age of Gods.
And I'm afraid it's a blatant revival!
The person in charge of the car dealership carefully watched the team passing by him.
Facing this team, the person in charge bent his waist as much as possible until his head was almost touching the ground. Only then did he stop, sweating and enduring the pain in his legs.
This kind of team was unfamiliar to Mozo, a foreigner, but to the local person in charge of the car dealership, their notoriety was well-known!
The person in charge of the car dealership knew that although these people would not capture humans directly, they were accustomed to hunting sub-humans and did not care about the lives of the poor or even civilians.
If one of them is unhappy, he might cause trouble for you, not to mention that they are now in the wilderness!
If you are killed or captured by the other party, there is no place to seek justice!
Fortunately, the other party seemed to have made a great harvest this time, so they did not embarrass them. They just walked silently past the person in charge's small carriage, and at most they would occasionally sneer in the person in charge's ears.
But maybe his luck had run out, but when the team was finally about to be defeated, the hooves of two tall horses appeared steadily in the person in charge's sight, which was so low that he could hardly see anything.
After swallowing his saliva, the person in charge quickly raised his head with an apologetic smile.
What I saw were two strong men wearing leather armor.
Looking at the other party's leather armor that glowed slightly at night, the person in charge knew that this must be top-grade equipment with extraordinary power!
This discovery made his heart sink even more.
There's no need to even look at this kind of person, but if you do, it's definitely not a good thing!
"No, I don't know what you two gentlemen want to talk to me about?"
When the other party saw the apologetic smile on the person in charge's face, he immediately laughed even more happily.
They were just bored and happened to see a carriage next to the team, so they wanted to have some fun.
As a result, when he came over, he not only saw the person in charge with his head almost bowed to the ground, but also saw Mozo who had been standing on the shaft of the cart from beginning to end.
This discovery made them a little dissatisfied. Although they were worried that Mozo might be difficult to deal with, they also felt that if he was really an important person, the driver would not have acted like this.
So he rode his horse over.
As expected, the driver's panic and fear were almost written all over his face.
Now they were certain that Mozo was no character.
What made them even happier was that they discovered that the two horses in front of the carriage were actually excellent military horses!
After touching their chins, they didn't even bother to hide it, and just raised their chins and said to the person in charge:
"Sir, I like your two horses. Be smart! If you give us these two horses, today's incident will be over!"
In just one sentence, the person in charge's heart, which was already at the bottom of the valley, was thrown even deeper into the icy lake.
But the person in charge just opened his mouth, nodded with trembling lips and said:
"Hey, hey, little one, I'll go and get the horses for you two gentlemen right away!"
After saying this, the person in charge, whose trembling had spread from his lips to his entire body, walked towards the two horses as if he had lost his soul.
These were two military horses that he had spent a lot of time and effort to get, and he even emptied out his family's savings. He took care of them like his own children!
But now it was taken away by just a few words!
He was angry at the other party for being so arrogant, but he was also afraid of the other party being so arrogant!
So he was shaking with anger and fear...
However, just as the person in charge placed his hands on the reins on the horse's back, he suddenly heard Mozo's voice, which was more suppressed than usual:
"These are two top-quality military horses. According to the market price, I estimate that one horse would cost at least 20 church gold coins. Add to that the money this gentleman has spent on raising the horses and favors over the years. You two want to take them away without paying a penny. Isn't that a bit too much?"
When the person in charge heard this, a light flashed in his eyes, and then he quickly shook his head at Mozo. He knew that Mozo was a rich outsider.
But no matter how rich the outsider is, how can he reason with these two barbarians in this damn place
Who knows, it might even cause even bigger trouble!
The other two also put away their smiles. One of them said nothing but drew out his revolver from his horse, while the other drew out a sword engraved with many sacred inscriptions from his waist.
"I don't want to tell you anything, I'll just tell you straight out. Do you see what I have in my hand?"
The sturdy man took out his revolver and pointed it directly at Mozo, saying bluntly:
"I was in a good mood and only wanted you two stinky horses, but now I have changed my mind. If you can't give me something that satisfies me, you will die here tonight!"
