Transcendent Dawn Chapter 771: Veteran

In a blink of an eye.

　　

　　Jupiter is nine years old.

　　

　　 Since he was seven years old, he has to follow his father Herak for arduous training every day, whether it is cold or hot.

　　

　　 Although Herak had a vague premonition when he saw the reduction in soldiers' income, this did not prevent him from imparting his combat experience and knowledge to Jupiter.

　　

　　 After all, this world is still very barbaric, and only the strong can survive.

　　

　　 In the entire city and in the kingdom, patriarchy is supreme and power is respected, which fully illustrates this point.

　　

　　 However, Herak is a smart man after all.

　　

　　 He prepared a generous gift and invited a scholar as a teacher for little Jupiter, Mr. Turing who lives next door to his house.

　　

　　 "Teacher!"

　　

　　 Before dawn, Jupiter got up, went to the next door, and waited in front of Sulu's door.

　　

　　 I don’t know how long it has been, the door creaked open, and Martha’s face emerged: "Poor little guy..."

　　

　　 She hurriedly took Jupiter in and brought him a glass of goat's milk.

　　

　　 At this time, Sulu has also got up and is eating breakfast leisurely.

　　

　　 "Teacher!"

　　

　　 Jupiter came to Sulu respectfully.

　　

　　"Um...you have learned the lingua franca of the Hormon Kingdom. Next... we will learn the northern orc language. This can be seen as a variant of Hormon’s lingua franca. There are many similarities... …"

　　

　　 Su Lu leisurely said.

　　

　　 Jupiter’s little face is full of bitterness.

　　

　　Learning lingua franca has already made him very strenuous, and Orc language challenges his throat pronunciation.

　　

　　 "Teacher... why should I learn so many languages?"

　　

　　If it were his own father, he would never dare to ask, otherwise the cane would be knocked down after a meal.

　　

　　 But Teacher Turing was very kind, and he didn't hit him once, and Jupiter grew courageous.

　　

　　 "Haha..."

　　

　　 Sulu smiled and rubbed Jupiter’s head: "Learning one more language is always useful... If one day, you go to battle against the orcs, if you can’t beat them, you can beg for mercy anyway. !"

　　

　　 "I am a brave warrior, I will not do shameful things!"

　　

　　 Jupiter rolled his eyes: "There are orcs...Aren't they far, far away?"

　　

　　"Perhaps... Once they were very far away, but even the previous generations of heroes would not think of the population multiplication, the expansion of the land, and the changes in the situation hundreds of years later... let alone thousands of years. "

　　

　　Sulu smiled.

　　

　　 Seeing the ignorant Jupiter, he said: "In fact...the language contains real power! For example, the Zerg's'Warmon', it is a mysterious language..."

　　

　　 "Teacher, can you teach me'Warmon'?" Jupiter's eyes lit up.

　　

　　 "I haven't learned how to walk, what to learn to run? After listening to the class today, continue to read!"

　　

　　Su Lu pointed to his study.

　　

　　 "Oh!" Jupiter's little head shrugged immediately.

　　

　　 He thinks this teacher is smart, but too lazy. He only teaches him the most basic grammar and language every time, and he has to read the book by himself for the rest.

　　

　　 However, Mr. Turing is already the smartest person in the entire city-state, and he also controls a papermaking workshop that makes a lot of money.

　　

　　 Jupiter sucked his fingers and stared at Sulu eagerly: "Teacher...I don't want to..."

　　

　　 "Ahem... Since you looked at me so sincerely."

　　

　　 Sulu coughed: "Let’s take the exam later!"

　　

　　 "Huh?!"

　　

　　 Jupiter's face was shocked.

　　

　　 "Haha...If you can satisfy me, I will teach you how to become a superstring warrior!" Sulu smiled.

　　

　　 "Become... a superstring warrior?"

　　

　　 Jupiter's eyes lit up: "Become a hero? Isn't that a way that only the guardian knights knows?"

　　

　　 "Reading a lot, it is always good, I know." Su Lu pointed to his nose: "So... do you want to be a'hero'?"

　　

　　 "Hmm!"

　　

　　Jupiter nodded vigorously.

　　

　　……

　　

　　 In the afternoon, when Jupiter returned home, he felt something was wrong with the atmosphere.

　　

　　Father Herak sits on the wooden table with his right hand on his forehead, while his mother Span is beside him to comfort him.

　　

　　 Even the two sisters who married the butcher and the livestock merchant returned home.

　　

　　 "What happened?"

　　

　　 He whispered to himself, but didn't dare to ask more.

　　

　　"Bring the wine..."

　　

　　Herac put down his palms, and his voice was low: "I am a veteran of the city state, they actually cut me? I am good at all kinds of fighting and killing skills...the **** city officials..."

　　

　　"But...there is no war..."

　　

　　 Spann said softly.

　　

　　 "Get away, woman!" Herak cursed, raising his hip flask and swigging.

　　

　　 Spann can only hold and cry with his two daughters.

　　

The scene of 　　 left a deep impression on Jupiter.

　　

　　 Although he still doesn't understand what unemployment is, he already has a vague feeling.

　　

　　My family seems to be going through a new round of changes.

　　

　　……

　　

　　"A developing city requires soldiers to maintain law and order, prevent danger in the wild, and be always ready to fight... But when the city is reclaimed, the surrounding land becomes mature, and when there is no war, only a certain amount is reserved. It’s a normal thing to abolish veterans..."

　　

　　Su Lu looked at this scene thoughtfully.

　　

　　Herac is a professional soldier, with a fixed salary from the city-state every twenty sun days.

　　

　　 Of course, this is not the real big income of professional soldiers. The way they make money and make a fortune, the seizures in wars, and the spoils they get.

　　

　　If there are slaves, it is even more profitable.

　　

　　 But there are not many opportunities for Herak to make a fortune, and he has no savings. Once unemployed, it will be terrifying.

　　

　　 After all, he is middle-aged and he has lost his youthful vitality.

　　

　　 Jupiter looked at this scene with the same sadness in his heart.

　　

　　At this time, Sulu walked in: "Herak, my friend!"

　　

　　"Turing, I'm so sorry..."

　　

　　Spann greeted him~IndoMTL.com~ with apologetic faces.

　　

　　 "No... I happen to have something."

　　

　　Sulu sat down at the long table and said: "When my paper is sold in other cities, I will always encounter various troubles on the road. I want to hire an **** for the team. , Herak, are you interested?"

　　

　　 "What?"

　　

　　Herac came up instantly.

　　

　　 He was just borrowing wine to seduce his sorrows. The wines of this era don't have much degree at all, let alone drunk.

　　

　　 "Yes... I am going to hire some veterans as mercenaries."

　　

　　 Sulu enlightened: "You lose your job, not for nothing, at least you can become adventurers, that is, people who take on various tasks and solve all kinds of problems for the citizens, so as to get paid!"

　　

　　 Herak’s eyes lit up when he heard it: "Turing...my friend, you are indeed a wise man, thank you for your suggestion!"
