Chapter 2123 The Royal City Is Attacked
At the celebration banquet, the civilian magician who defeated the enemy country did not enjoy the praise he won, because the nobles kept whispering, saying that the civilians were just lucky.
Or they said that the civilians were not qualified to be here at all, and it was an eyesore and a disgrace.
Or they questioned the achievements of the civilians, thinking that the enemies of the Diamond Country were lies, and that the civilians were just lying about their military achievements, which was shameless.
Anyway, they did not treat the civilians well, and the two noble youths who participated in this operation were moved by Asta and realized that there were powerful people among the civilians. I really don’t know how ignorant, stupid, and out of touch with society these nobles were before they met Asta.
It feels that although the nobles and civilians in the kingdom live under the same blue sky, there is an invisible wall between them, which is invisible at all.
Asta’s appearance broke the inherent influence of the nobles on the civilians. I really didn’t know what the civilians in their eyes looked like before. I’m afraid they were not as vivid as cats and dogs. It’s as if there are no living civilians in their lives, and the so-called civilians are just fantasies in their minds.
Anyway, before they met Asta, the nobles were like blind people. After they met Asta, the nobles suddenly became enlightened, as if they had lived in vain for more than 20 or 30 years.
Duran and Denise appeared in the dark again and scored them. Seeing the nobles' castles in the air attitude, they deducted a lot of points.
It's already at the level of why not eat minced meat.
Asta and Yuno were questioned, but they endured it. Anyway, they still had to speak with strength. However, it's okay to question them, but Asta can't tolerate anyone questioning his teammates.
The twin-tailed girl Enor met her brother and sister at the celebration banquet. The brother and sister always thought that Enor was a shame to the family. Now this shame is mixed with the scum of the Black Bull Group. They look down on it and think that their sister is embarrassing, so they mocked Enor.
Asta couldn't stand it. They are obviously brothers and sisters. What hatred and grudges are there? How can he be so cruel to his sister? Is this the noble? Is he so ruthless and ungrateful that he doesn't even let his own sister go?
If discrimination against civilians is just the prejudice of the nobles. Discriminating against his own sister like that, he is not even worthy of being a human being.
Asta was furious and jumped onto the table: "Enor works harder than all of you."
The atmosphere immediately became tense. The nobles would never allow Asta to interfere with their internal identities. How dare a mere commoner point fingers at the nobles?
At that time, the two nobles cast magic to loosen Asta's muscles and bones and teach him not to be so mean.
The magic-breaking sword was waiting. Facing unprepared people, Asta's magic-breaking sword could always catch them by surprise and get results. The mottled rusty iron sword cut through the magic, making the magic that the nobles were proud of ineffective.
However, this angered the nobles even more. Several nobles who disliked the commoners also wanted to take action.
Of course, Yunuo couldn't let his friends suffer, and he was always ready. As long as someone attacked, he would cover Asta.
These nobles were very young, and I don't know where they got so much superiority.
"Deduct points, deduct points." Duran waved his pen and deducted the san value of the nobles.
"Civilians, watch your attitude."
Seeing the conflict was about to break out, the royal city was surrounded by zombies. The White Night Demon Eye came again, and this time it directly invaded the royal city, using undead magic to turn civilians into zombies, creating chaos.
The celebration banquet had to end early, and the dispute between the nobles and the civilians ended here. They had to go to quell the chaos as soon as possible and protect the masses.
The situation was not optimistic. The four directions of southeast, northwest and northeast were attacked by undead magic, and more and more civilians turned into zombies.
However, there was an interesting phenomenon. Duran said that the reaction of these citizens was too abnormal: "Obviously everyone has a magic book, but the people of the royal city never thought of resisting when they encountered problems. Where is the power of the magic book?"
These zombies are not magicians. Although there are many of them, they can be blocked with the simplest magic, but the people don't remember to use magic at all. They all look forward to the rescue of the Knights. They will cheer when they see the Knights. This dependence is too strong. They are really completely domesticated.
"That's why it's said that magicians hinder the progress of society. Every civilian has a magic book, but they never think of using it. In other words, many civilians in cities who don't need physical labor don't use magic books at all, so they have degenerated. In the long run, civilians in the city can't use magic and magic power at all. Over time, magic power has become dispensable like the human tailbone and appendix." Duran couldn't help but sigh.
The civilians in the city have degenerated.
Denise didn't know what to say. None of these civilians who fled for their lives really used magic books, as if they had forgotten this. They all knew that there was no rule in this country that citizens were not allowed to bring magic books, but these citizens gave up on their own.
Fortunately, the guards in the royal capital were the strongest. The Knights found the location of the zombies and hit them hard. The zombies were very weak and could be blocked with ordinary magic. A regular magic knight could block a large wave of zombies.
The zombie frenzy was blocked in no time.
As expected, Asta met the culprit, a necromancer who was expelled from the Knights. Because the necromancer magic was too evil, the Magic Knights did not welcome him and exiled him.
Now the necromancer joined the White Night Eye and came back for revenge.
The unlucky ones were the people of the capital. Many of them died for no reason, but those who survived cheered for the Knights and did not dare to complain about the efficiency of the Knights. They did not dare to blame the Knights for letting bad guys invade the city, and did not dare to complain about their dereliction of duty.
This is class. No matter how inadequate the Knights did, they were still one class higher than the civilians. If the civilians were not satisfied, the Knights had a hundred ways to make things difficult for them.
In this environment where you can be praised for doing good or bad, how can the mages know whether their behavior is in line with the trend or against the trend? Without knowing these, how can they make society progress?
Obviously their relatives were killed, and the Knights did not complete the task of protecting the city, but everyone still cheered and thanked.
It is estimated that only the king in the deep palace is not grateful to the Knights, because the Knights actually made so much noise to disturb his rest, which is too hateful.
The king was enjoying the pleasure with beauties on both sides, but was disturbed by the battle of the Knights. He couldn't help but scold the Knights for being useless, but he didn't think about the fact that his palace was really impenetrable, the most tightly guarded and safest place for the Knights, and the king's treatment was several levels higher than that of the citizens.
The king was definitely the safest person in the entire capital, so he dared to accuse the Knights of not doing a good job and disturbing his enjoyment.
