Myth analysis, I know the plot, I am invincible

Chapter 1757

"The battle between the Witch King and the Wizard happened five hundred years ago?" Li Su was confused.

Seeing Li Su's reaction, the old man was not surprised. After all, the other party had just come to Wu City for less than half a year. Although he had become one of the two poles' disciples of the High Tower, in fact, he was a complete novice when it came to Wu City's affairs and had no idea of ​​the real situation in Wu City.

He immediately said: "Sir, in addition to challenging the tower to advance your status in Wucheng, there is actually another way."

"That's the battle between the wizard and the king!"

"In Wizard City, in addition to the tower and the central palace, there are two more departments."

"Black Knights and patrol officers."

"Black Knight is responsible for matters involving combat."

"Inspection is responsible for the daily management of the area."

"Under normal circumstances, as long as the concentration of witch blood in Wu City is sufficient and certain conditions are met, people can directly join these two departments."

"For example, the Black Knights have requirements for the witch tribe's combat methods. They gain status based on the level of their mastery of combat methods and their specific strength."

"There are five ranks in total: Black Knight, Ten Knight Officer, Hundred Knight Captain, Thousand Knight Master, and Black Knight Captain."

"Similarly, the patrols are also like this: patrol officers, regional officials, mid-regional officials, large regional officials, and the four city lords in the southeast, northwest, and northeast."

"Because only noble wizards can be in charge of patrol inspections, ordinary wizards can only become patrol inspectors at most. The specific requirements are unclear, so I won't go into details. Joining the Black Knight is the only promotion channel for ordinary wizards in Wizard City."

"If you master the first level of the witch clan's combat method, you can join the Black Knights."

"If you have perfected the first level of the Wu Clan's combat method, you can become a ten-horse officer."

"If you master the second level of the Wu Clan's combat method, you can become the leader of a hundred cavalrymen."

"Once you have perfected the second level of the Wu Clan's combat tactics, you can become the leader of a thousand cavalrymen."

"When the witch tribe's combat skills reach the third level, you will be qualified to become the leader of the black knights, command an army, and obtain an independent number."

"Under normal circumstances, this is the limit that a 'normal' witch can achieve."

"If the Black Knight still wants to be promoted, the only way is to participate in the War of the Witch King."

"As long as you can win the battle between wizards and kings, you can get the title of wizard king."

"With this title, your status and position are basically equal to that of a registered disciple of the tower, and it can also improve the status of your own tribe."

"If it is an ordinary witch family, they can be directly promoted to noble witches, and their descendants will become the nobles of the witch city, and they will no longer be ordinary witches."

"Not only that, you should know that although the Noble Wizard is a class, there are still different levels within it. Once an ordinary wizard is promoted, he will directly become a third-class Noble Wizard. Although his status is different from that of an ordinary wizard, he is still at the bottom among the Noble Wizards."

"If a third-class noble wizard has one of his descendants who is once again awarded the title of Wizard King, then the noble wizard will be promoted again and become a second-class noble wizard."

"Then there is first class, and special class."

"At this point, the Wu Clan is a top family in the entire Wu City. Not only does it have a large number of members and countless strong people, it is also extremely close to the central court and has already made its first step into the power center of Wu City."

"If another descendant can obtain the title of Wizard King, the entire family can be promoted and join the Twelve Wizard Ancestors' affiliated tribe. Their direct lineage will have the same status as the descendants of the Twelve Wizard Ancestors."

"Therefore, the battle for the Wizard King can be regarded as another path to advancement for Wizard City besides challenging the High Tower."

Hearing this, Li Su couldn't help but nodded. No wonder the old man said that the battle between the wizard king and the wizard king was another way to be promoted besides the challenge of the tower.

If what the old man said is true, then in fact, compared to the tower challenge, the battle between the wizards and the king is better in a sense.

After all, although the disciples of the high tower have amazing power, it only applies to the disciples themselves and does not provide protection for their clansmen. When people are alive, their status is naturally high, but what if they die?

The battle between the wizard and the king is different. Not only will the status of the challenger be elevated, but his people can also be promoted.

Even if he only became a third-class noble wizard from an ordinary wizard, a noble wizard is still a noble wizard. The resources and power he enjoys in the wizard city are not comparable to ordinary wizards. Apart from other things, just the inspection department that is on par with the black knights is equivalent to opening a track specifically for ordinary wizards, and ordinary wizards are not qualified to join it.

"My lord, do you think that the battle between the wizards and the king is better than the challenge in the tower?" At this moment, the old man sneered, his eyes full of sarcasm.

Li Su was stunned, a little surprised, and said: "Isn't it?"

"Haha, you have just arrived at the Wizard City, so you are not very clear about the situation there. The Tower Challenge and the Wizard King's Battle do seem to be paths to advancement, but their original intentions are completely different."

The old man smiled and said, "The purpose of the tower challenge is to recruit disciples. Although the selection method is cruel, if you can't pass it, you will die."

"The battle for the wizard king is different. Its starting point is not to select more outstanding people, but to kill too many 'quasi-wizard kings'."

When Li Su heard this, his pupils couldn't help but shrink and he was a little surprised.

Kill off too many 'Wizard Kings'? What does that mean?

"Sir, it's normal that you don't understand since you've been surviving outside. After all, it's difficult outside, with a harsh environment and ferocious beasts everywhere. It's completely different from the safe Wucheng. Every day, you just have to survive, and you don't have the heart to think about anything else."

"Witch City is different. It is protected by a city defense formation and guarded by the descendants of the twelve witch ancestors. Not only is the environment excellent, but ferocious beasts do not dare to target it. It is very safe."

"But there is a problem in Wucheng that cannot be ignored, and that is that Wucheng is limited."

"It's different from the wild. Although it's dangerous, the land is vast and the sky is wide. If we can't stay here, then we can go somewhere else. Wherever we go, that's it."

"Witch City is only so big, and can only accommodate and support so many people. It is impossible to increase it indefinitely to accommodate the witch tribe. Sooner or later, it will be full. Unfortunately, Witch City is too safe, and it will naturally attract more witch tribes to come."

“So, it’s only a matter of time before it’s full.”

"In fact, the problem of being full is easy to solve. We just need to announce to the public that we can no longer accommodate more people and refuse to allow new witches to enter."

"In fact, as early as seven hundred years ago, this witch city had already refused to allow the witch tribe to migrate in."

At this point, the old man paused and continued, "Although this method can prevent large tribes from migrating in directly, it cannot prevent the powerful witch tribe from entering. The witch tribe's fighting methods are widely spread. Basically, as long as the witch tribe forms a tribe, they will have their own inheritance."

"And it's obvious that the wild is extremely dangerous. Normally, once the witches are over the age of childhood, they will start to practice and fight with young wild beasts."

"So, in a tribe, there are many people who can become black knights, and there are quite a few who are ten-horse officers. As long as there is a witch tribe with 300 to 500 people, there will be at least two or three hundred-horse captains. If the entire tribe cannot migrate to Wu City, then they will be integrated and trained locally. Once a witch of the level of a black knight captain is produced, all we need is for him to unite his people into one army, and Wu City will have no way to refuse."

"After all, the Black Knight Captain at that time was the real noble wizard, a member of the wizard clan's power hierarchy recognized by the Twelve Wizard Ancestors."

"Witch City doesn't really care about this. After all, the Black Knights have at most one or two thousand people, and rarely more than ten thousand. Witch City can still accommodate them."

"But there is a problem. The population can be accommodated, but what about the Black Knight Captain? He is a person who can command an army. Not only does he have enormous power, but the Wizard City also needs to provide him with 'military rations' to support his army."

"Take the Witch City where we are as an example. It is a large Witch City with twelve descendants of the Witch Clan sitting in it, which is enough to support five hundred Black Knight Captains."

"Let alone the fact that the nobles in Wu City are not jealous of this military expenditure, just the fact that there are only 500 Black Knights means that those who can become Black Knights have a very long lifespan. In the absence of war, a thousand years is easy."

"This also means that the number of Black Knights in Wucheng will only increase, and will not decrease at all."

"Sir, do you know how many black knights there were in this wizard city eight hundred years ago?"

Li Su shook his head.

The old man said softly, "A total of 43,000 people, and this number increases by dozens every year."

Forty-three thousand black knights? Commanding an army of ten thousand? Shit, if it was full, how many troops would that be? A full four hundred and thirty million.

"Then, sir, do you know how many black knight commanders there are in the Witch City now?"

The other party said that the battle for the Wizard King was to kill too many would-be Wizard Kings, so naturally there wouldn't be too many now.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Ten thousand?"

The old man smiled slightly and uttered a shocking number, "One hundred."

"hiss???"
