Chapter 337 Glory?

Relying on his venomous tongue and ridicule, Punk successfully "cursed" Joni Zodas back. This kind of low-level and childish dialogue in punk's view is always very effective for a stubborn fighter like Joni, especially Punk has been chasing Joni's most painful thing, and in this case, Joni will certainly not be Punk's opponent.

So, so far, punk has successfully won a round in the confrontation of language.

"My lords, please follow me."

After the menacing paladins retreated back to the camp, a rather young-looking official-level paladin came before Punk and Ben Rachel. It seemed that he was Oakes who had been arranged by Gioni to lead the way before he left.

"My lords, the residence arranged by Lord Joni has been prepared, but the time is short, and the reception along the way is very rude, please forgive me."

I have to admit that the Paladin army of the Zodas family is really very disciplined. Even after being shamelessly humiliated by Punk, they are still able to suppress their anger and show their composure. The violent mental fluctuations, just from the surface, I really can't see the slightest emotional change in this guy.

Oakes, who didn't know that his inner feelings were like a blank sheet of paper in front of a master spellcaster, still abided by strict noble etiquette. After bowing in a serious manner, he seriously walked ahead and led the way.

Punk ignored this guy. For him, a full-level paladin is just an insignificant role, and Punk, who has never let down his vigilance, will not live in the residence arranged by Jonny. I will walk around the door of the house and then I will find an inconspicuous place to spend the night.

On the contrary, Ben Rachel still maintained great enthusiasm. He completely ignored Oakes' refusal to walk away from thousands of miles away:

"Haha, I've heard that the Roasted Duck with Wine in Maple Leaf Kingdom is very delicious, if you can, you must prepare this dish for me."

"No problem, my lord, the royal chef has prepared a lot of ingredients, I believe the two adults will be satisfied."

Seeing Ben Rachel approaching with the leftover half of an elbow, Oakes took two quick steps in disgust, but on the surface, he still responded politely to Ben Rachel's question, although this time the response seemed very Perfunctory.

Without much communication, the three of them walked in through the towering gate of the City of Charming Maple Flowers.

It was a sunny morning at this time. Since the City of Maple Flowers has a curfew policy, it stands to reason that there should be many merchants and travelers waiting to leave the city in the morning. Seeing such a scene, even though the city gate has been wide open for a long time, there are still very few people entering and leaving the city gate, and there are no caravans leaving the city.

Obviously, this sluggish traffic situation is very inconsistent with a royal city with a population of more than 400,000.

As if he felt a little embarrassed, Oakes walked in front and began to explain:

"The main industry of Maple Flower City is ore mining and primary processing. Generally speaking, there are still many caravans trading in minerals, but now is the preparation period for war. For the great battle of glory, all ores must be It was handed over to the army without compensation, so now the gate of the city seems a little deserted."

Oakes' explanation had no unusual emotional color, and his tone was just a simple "science popularization explanation". Even when he said "all ores must be handed over for free", his words were full of course, as if this kind of Things are just as they should be.

However, Ben Rachel was surprised at Oakes's attitude of taking it for granted. Ben Rachel, who has had many business experiences, undoubtedly has a certain degree of research on the economy. He knows how the development of this kind of mineral economy is. Malformations and abnormalities:

"Give it up without compensation? If this is the case, would the nobles who operate the mines really be willing, and this method will cause the economic order to collapse, among other things, don't you think there are...too many beggars in this royal city? "?

The surprise in Ben Rachel's words is not surprising at all. Following his gaze, Punk also saw the "beggars" he said were "too many".

That's more than a lot!

I saw that under the elegant and artistic buildings, unkempt and disheveled people almost filled all the corners that could block the wind. These poor people were almost all made up of old, weak, sick and disabled It can be said that it can be seen everywhere. Whenever nobles pass by, they will tremblingly stretch out their dirty wooden bowls and pray in wailing.

At this time, many nobles either whipped the past and continued on their way, or randomly broke a piece of bread and sprinkled it among the poor like feeding animals, and then watched some poor people who were too hungry to stand up and scrambled for a piece of bread. little food lol......

It would not be surprising if such a scene appeared in a refugee camp, but it appeared in the capital of a country... At least Punk had never heard of such a thing.

"It's impossible."

Oakes also saw such a scene, but he just turned his head away without looking at it strangely.

"This is the pain brought to this country by the hateful Dragon Roar Kingdom. The invasion of the Dragon Roar Kingdom has made our people hungry..."

"Hey, that's not the case, how did I hear that the Dragon Roar Kingdom often distributes food to aid your country..."

"That's despicable infiltration and the greatest insult to Maple Leaf Kingdom...that's...sorry, I lost my composure"!

Hearing Ben Rachel's question, Oaks raised his voice a lot, but soon, he also realized that he was facing two master-level powerhouses, so Oakes hurriedly saluted respectfully and apologized.

But he didn't change his mind because of this. After bowing, the sharp-eyed paladin said to Ben Rachel in a polite and righteous tone:

"It's not enough that the despicable Dragon Roar Kingdom has invaded our country, they actually want to erode the will of our citizens with meaningless small favors... This is an insult that the Kingdom cannot tolerate, so all the dirty food from the Dragon Roar Kingdom They will all be burnt down by the Zodas family, and anyone who dares to receive supplies from the Dragon Roar Kingdom will be deemed a traitor and executed immediately! The glory of the Maple Leaf Kingdom cannot be tarnished by anyone."

The words of righteousness in Oakes' set of words are sonorous and powerful, and they are extremely decisive! It can be seen that this concept of the supremacy of glory is unshakable from top to bottom in the Zodas family, and in the heart of Oakes, it is the highest concept that will not hesitate to contradict the master-level powerhouse and refuse to give in.

"But…………"!

For this kind of content, Ben Rachel certainly felt that it was extremely ridiculous. When he saw two children fighting for a piece of moldy bread and even scuffling their heads and blood, Ben Rachel couldn't help but want to say something more. .

"Okay, don't do things that don't matter, our time is very precious, Oakes, I think you can continue to lead the way."

The impatient Punk quickly stopped Ben Rachel, who was nosy again. He came here to earn exchange points by slaying dragons. For him, the people's livelihood and the idea of ​​governing the country in the Maple Leaf Kingdom were really boring. never mind.
