Chapter 204 Friend Nick
The aristocracy has existed in the West for many years. Those aristocrats may have been ruffians and scoundrels, but they were also the bravest group of people.
Raising money, risking their lives to explore unknown places, plundering wealth, killing dissidents, and exchanging more resources and land for their country, thus gaining their aristocratic status.
While enjoying the respect, they often need to rush to the front in the war, lead the battle, and mobilize the momentum.
In the chaotic fighting place, strong war horses and excellent armor cannot completely guarantee their life safety.
But showing off is their job, or in other words, in addition to showing majesty to the outside world, the aristocrats don’t need to care about other things.
As time goes by, the aristocrats who enjoy luxury are no longer brave, and the majesty to the outside world gradually becomes internal, so they naturally have no value in existence.
Of course, this is some of the situations related to Mu Hua’s previous life.
But in today’s world, those aristocrats are largely not much different from Mu Hua’s previous life.
In the dark ages when the Federation was once devastated by monsters, the nobles were the leaders of mankind. They needed to let people know that even poor humans could fight monsters.
In that era, the mortality rate of nobles was actually quite high.
As monsters retreated from the human world and the courtyards came, the nobles here began to live a luxurious life of doing things when they had something to do and doing things when they had nothing to do.
Then, the nobles lost power. . .
The reason why the noble system did not die out was that some nobles retained the establishment of their ancestors' knights. They had connections and reputations, the responsibility of guarding, and a certain symbolic meaning. And among those powerful adventurers, there was actually a legacy of noble blood.
In the fight against monsters, the strategy group took over the original nobles' leading role to the people to a certain extent.
But let alone the strategy group, even if it was a hero, if a strong adventurer threw an olive branch to them, most of them would throw themselves into the world of adventurers without hesitation.
This is a bit funny.
By the way, what is the greatest meaning of the hero's existence?
Raid the courtyard? Don't make a fuss...
Isn't it just to make the screw-tightening settlers think we are awesome, isn't it just to make the settlers give birth steadily, and live and work in peace?
You threw yourself directly into the arms of adventurers, what does that mean?
Especially the problem of reproduction, cloning and test tubes can cause reproduction degradation, but not magical adaptability. If the settlers don't give birth, do you still expect adventurers to give birth?
Compared with passing on the family line and giving birth to children, adventurers are probably more willing to think about their own life transition and spend resources on themselves.
Even if there are adventurers who really take passing on the family line as a responsibility, you can see whether there are more births or more deaths...
So, the heroes can be used within the region, but they are not very useful. It's okay to shoot some videos and movies of fighting, love, picking up artifacts, and saving saints when lost.
When a formal big scene is encountered, some people who can represent the residents are still needed to appear.
At this time, the nobles who have territories and enjoy taxes are put in front as if they are not allowed to.
But there is a little problem here, that is, the nobles have been stripped of their power, and they are now not attentive to such things.
In the end, when there is a scene where negotiations with the Lord of the Courtyard are required, when the residents need to see that powerful adventurers must respect them, bureaucrats like Nick who are more inclined to the Democratic Party are pushed to the front.
"You said that this star tour meeting was initiated by Odysseus?"
In the clothing store, Nick changed into a decent set of clothes. When Mu Hua paid the bill, he asked Nick.
"It's not initiated, but it just happened that his proposal passed the review." Nick corrected.
The clothing stores in the Fiona community naturally don't sell any miscellaneous brands, high-end clothing, which has no defensive function at all, but is very expensive.
Nick almost ran away from home naked, without even a space prop.
Now Mu Hua is not unable to afford such luxury brands, but it is fine to let Nick eat a big customer. As for himself, it is obvious that he has not formed such a consumption concept.
"Of course, Odysseus is still very powerful. I didn't expect Webster to give you the position of inspector general." The two left the clothing store, and Nick was curious to explore.
"Webster is quite arrogant. What's the situation with him? He actually let you mess with Odysseus's team. Odysseus has no objection?"
"Some small problems, maybe we are more compatible." Mu Hua did not say it clearly. Nick was thoughtful, but did not ask any more questions.
"The scale of this star patrol meeting may be large. I heard that Daryl's deep-sea fleet has been invited."
"Since you are the inspector of the Odysseus team, it seems that you have to attend as well. Let's take care of each other brothers. I hope the owner of the courtyard of 375 can be more obedient." Nick patted Mu Hua's shoulder, and his tone was like a pair of brothers in distress.
The Star Patrol Meeting is no small matter; it is a negotiation between humans and monsters, and this process is usually carried out in any newly emerged courtyard.
Although it is called a meeting, it is actually a demonstration by humans against monsters. Through the display of power, humans are able to overturn the table.
In this way, the courtyard master will make more concessions and restrain some powerful monsters so that they cannot ambush and kill humans at will.
This kind of demonstration usually requires the cooperation of multiple parties. After all, humans have limited high-end combat power and cannot take care of every courtyard.
The 375 courtyards in Bear Pig Town have appeared for two or three years, but they have never been approved by the Star Patrol Conference.
Even if it is a proposal, Mu Hua did not expect Odysseus to be able to arrange such a thing.
"Yesterday I heard about the Star Patrol Conference from a goblin general, and today you actually told me that I need to participate too?" Mu Hua resisted, slapping Nick's arm on his shoulder.
"Heh, you dare to provoke the goblin general? Don't worry, since the other party has agreed to negotiate with humans, at most it will be a prank provocation. If there is a war, there will generally not be a demon general-level monster." Nick said with a smile, and did not take the so-called Star Patrol Conference too seriously.
"But..." Nick changed his tone and looked at Mu Hua in a strange way.
"Just now I saw you staring at the girl who was guiding you with your eyes shining. Are you sure Debbie didn't cast any curse on you?" Nick asked Mu Hua.
"The curse is ineffective on me." Mu Hua shook his head. Tuesday was squatting in his body. He was the spirit of curse. If he really cursed him, he would be eaten by Tuesday.
However, as Nick asked, Mu Hua looked at Nick thoughtfully.
He needed to find some young ladies to study body art, and Nick in front of him seemed to be of a suitable size and length. He should be more familiar with this aspect.
"Nick? Do you know how many girls there are? The kind that can let go." Mu Hua asked implicitly.
"Well? Of course. Do you need Uncle Nick to take you to see the adult world?" Nick raised his eyebrows and teased Mu Hua in surprise.
"Well, I mean a place with more people, higher quality, and more privacy." Mu Hua added.
"A lot? How much do you want? Or, can we have a party? I have a villa on the East Coast, how about we go there?" It was rare for Mu Hua to show this need, Nick was quite interested.
"Well, I need to study the bodies of some girls, preferably some that I can examine carefully, um, maybe I need to see more, the kind that can be stripped naked..." Mu Hua explained with a dry cough.
"Huh? You..." Nick was stunned.
"Dude, you're not in any physical condition, are you?" Nick looked at Mu Hua up and down with a strange expression and asked carefully.
"No, well, I'm studying magical life and plan to try to create it. I need to know more about the bodies of girls." Mu Hua was discouraged. There was no good excuse for this matter, so he simply explained it to Nick.
"Ha! Magical life? Mu, there's nothing wrong with liking dolls, many people like it."
"Don't worry, I won't discriminate against you in this regard. Studying magical life? Hahaha." After a brief surprise, Nick laughed teasingly.
Don't think Mu Hua casually said magic life, but even demons recognize it as a living being.
Even in this world, magic life is very high-end, Nick doesn't believe that Mu Hua can create magic life.
He just thought that Mu Hua wanted to make a bionic puppet that suits his heart, or at most find a workshop to customize a magic life.
Many men have dreamed of this kind of existence when they were young, but most people give up because of the eyes of the people around them.
Nick didn't expect Mu Hua to be so fresh. While joking, seeing Mu Hua's serious face, Nick's expression hesitated again.
"Mu, you can't do this, I don't want people to misunderstand that I have problems."
"Or, I'll introduce you to a pimp, and you can communicate with the girls yourself." Nick resisted and said, thinking that a group of girls would secretly laugh at his physical and mental health problems.
"Don't talk nonsense, just go to your villa, now, contact, I'll pay." Mu Hua grabbed Nick who wanted to dodge, with an attitude of being rich and willful.
Studying body art is a good thing, but if you are too eager for quick success, you will be a bit like a pervert. . .
Mu Hua is also a bit restrained in this regard. With Nick accompanying him, how could Mu Hua let him get away?
Well, the girls this guy usually contacts are of high quality. It is better to have him help find someone than to grope around by himself.
Mu Hua doesn't feel bad about spending this money. At most, he can cover his face. Nick can play however he wants. He will just watch. . .
Well, watch more. . .
