Chapter 05: Hierarchical Structure
All soldiers knelt in unison, General Qingji knelt alone, the diviner knelt on both knees, and the wizard bent down to pay his respects
Ming gazed faintly at the soldier, still holding up his wrist, as if allowing him to strike with his sword
The dashing young man waved his hand, and immediately a soldier stepped forward, grasped the electronic display device on Ming's wrist, and pulled it down forcefully
It is a celebration of the occasion.
I vaguely felt a blue thread-like object penetrate my body, and then it moved rapidly within me
"If the princess wishes to grant him the privilege of joining our army, he might be able to serve as a squad leader, but it would be difficult to bestow upon him a military rank," the wizard Utud said淡淡, indicating that Ming is of little use.
Moreover, the driving speed is surprisingly fast
"Once again, it is utterly contemptible, especially coming from this extraordinarily beautiful princess before me." Ming was nearly driven to the point of spitting blood from anger
The female official felt sensitive, as if the area around her hips was burning, as though her pants had been lifted and set on fire.
Being thin can come across as mean-spirited, and members of the royal family must not be perceived as such
Among the general populace, one can almost be invincible.
Honestly, Ming was quite displeased with the demeanor of the princess. In the past, when encountering such women who feigned modesty and nobility on Earth, Ming would eagerly tear off their masks and revel in the stark contrast of their seductive nature in bed.
From the chest to the thigh, the skirt is form-fitting. Below the thigh, it flares out, resembling a fishtail, extending all the way to the ground
The wizard just said that he can defeat twelve ordinary infantrymen.
Moreover, this ship is astonishingly large, entirely made of wood
The soldier swiftly drew his broad sword and fiercely struck at Ming's arm
Ming's gaze turned cold as he cast a faint look towards General Qingji.
Such speed was unattainable by wooden ships in ancient Earth. It was only around the 19th century that steam-powered ironclad ships achieved this rate of speed
This is clearly a lady-in-waiting beside the princess, and the women here seem to be very conservative. She is completely enveloped in her garments, wearing a blue long dress that flows down from her neck to her feet, resembling a waterfall.
The princess cast a faint glance at Ming and asked the crowd: "Is he helpful for our journey northward?"
Then the wizard quickly calmed down, reached out to block General Qingji's sword, and said: "He is not a follower of the Earth Holy Church"
Gazing at her swaying figure, he felt an overwhelming sense of regret
Just as the two had a disagreement, a fragrance wafted through the air, and then the female official slowly walked up to the deck
At this moment, he realized that he was actually on a large ship at sea
The princess has commanded! Following this, a graceful figure entered Ming's line of sight and spoke in her melodious and dignified tone: "After waking him, provide him with a small boat, sufficient fresh water and bread, and an oar-wielding octopus, so that he may return to land on his own!"
This is undoubtedly a world with a highly rigid hierarchy
Understanding which expressions and illustrations convey nobility, and which expressions appear mysterious and keep others at a distance
Ming Yi frowned and said, "If you have the ability, feel free to take it."
A man in a cloak approached Ming and said: "If you wake up, get up immediately"
Moreover, they have no sails at all. Ming does not even know what power this ship is using to navigate
"He may be a member of the Earth Holy Sect, as he bears no imperial coding on his head. In this world, there is only one group of people without coding, and that is the followers of the Earth Holy Sect." General Qingji said, "The princess is heading north to Storm City to meet His Majesty the Leader to seek troops for revenge and to reclaim the isolated province of the South Sea. The Earth Holy Sect will surely set numerous traps along the way. At this moment, it is likely the first trap; that enchanting fox from the Earth Holy Sect is the most terrifying woman, and she will absolutely not allow the princess to meet His Majesty the Leader alive... At this moment, it is likely the first trap; that enchanting fox from the Earth Holy Sect is the most terrifying woman, and she will absolutely not allow the princess to meet His Majesty the Leader alive..."
For the computers of that era, and even for the earlier mathematical physics, it seemed rather unsuitable
Ensure that it is in Chinese, with a correct and precise tone. There should be no mixed dialect accents, and it should be entirely in the most standard Chinese.
Motionless, as if it were growing directly on the flesh
The expression on his face changed once again, displaying an even greater shock than the last time.
The woman, completely dressed in white, suddenly felt a sense of discomfort throughout her body. She frowned slightly and gently waved her hand, prompting everyone to rise.
Wu Tu then directed his gaze to the electronic watch on Ming's wrist, suddenly noticing the words displayed on it, as well as the moving images.
The princess has arrived, and all idle persons should immediately withdraw!" With the sharp command of the lady-in-waiting.
Everyone's gaze dared not to meet hers, including Qingji
General Qingji seems to be quite wary of Wu Tu, and he performed a salute, saying: "Lord Wu, according to the laws of the Empire, upper-class commoners must make some contribution in order to keep their hair longer than one foot. Lower-class commoners and slaves are not allowed to have hair longer than three inches, to facilitate daily labor. As for the person before me, with hair only a little over two inches, he must undoubtedly be a slave."
What is even more astonishing is that on the deck of this ship, there are not even any gaps between the wooden planks. Looking at other parts of the ship, there are also no gaps. The entire vessel seems to be a solid piece of giant wood
A figure cloaked entirely in black robes came into view shortly after
This should still be Earth, but it is Earth ten thousand years in the future, and everything is different
Beneath the ground, that prophet once said. The humans on the surface now are all slaves of extraterrestrial demons. It is even difficult to say whether they are truly human or if they were created by these extraterrestrial demons
General Qing swiftly drew his weapon and pointed it at Ming, exclaiming, "In the name of the Earth Holy Religion!"
Ming looked down from above at the figure of the woman, for from this moment on, everyone he saw was a person from another world. They were all individuals from Earth ten thousand years in the future, and he was very curious about their attire and all their civilizations
The gun has a sharp and terrifying blade at the head, and there is also a curved sickle that aligns with the direction of the blade.
He may not necessarily be a slave, " Wu Tu said coldly
From beginning to end, this princess did not say a word to Ming
In a regular army, if the opponent does not possess firearms, it is possible to kill more than one hundred people
Hold on! Suddenly, a cold shout rang out, causing a shiver among the many soldiers.
It is not made of cotton or linen; it is suspected to be made of ordinary wood fibers
However, I do not know what the concept of a Third-Rank Warrior is.
Then, the enigmatic wizard slowly approached, his greenish eyes fixed on Ming, and he sniffed with his nose.
However, General Qingji's gaze was still filled with a murderous intent
That is, this group of people is all speaking Chinese
Suddenly, a trace of cold air swept in.
Ming Dun was greatly displeased at that moment
A frail body, clad in a loose black cloak
Ming furrowed his brow; the biochemical system could only resume its function after being completely repaired
I am a first-class baron of the empire, entitled to seize any property of the commoners" General Qingji said coldly, then instructed the soldiers beside him: "Chop it down
Take it down!" The muscular young man pointed at the electronic display device on Ming's hand and shouted sternly
With a gentle press on the mechanism, the entire armor splits open like a peanut shell!
It is merely a protective glass talisman. Ming's eyes eagerly observed everything around him, both people and objects
The scene is one of serene stillness, and this princess before me must have been raised under the most noble courtly etiquette.
After a moment, the wizard removed his finger and turned to walk towards the stern of his ship
Within the hazy veil, a proud and upright nose rises prominently. A small mouth, lacking in color, resembles a pearl.
This is the wizard Utu.
A face as white as snow, with slightly blue eyes, an elongated visage, and exquisitely perfect features
Yet Ming's heart was filled with astonishment, for he had tested it before. Both the strength of the fists and the power of the legs matched exactly what the wizard before him had described. All he needed to do was press his finger against his eyelid to verify it. What a terrifying ability this was; it seemed that humanity in this world possessed certain capabilities that were truly formidable.
Ming remained standing still and asked, "What is the Earth Saint Religion?" He originally wanted to ask what the Empire was, but he became cautious and refrained from voicing the question, fearing it would raise others' suspicions about his ignorance of something as fundamental as the Empire.
From a visual assessment, it is impossible to calculate its exact sailing speed. However, it is estimated that the vessel's speed will not be less than 17 to 18 nautical miles per hour
"There is no symbol on your head. Every person in the Empire is born with a mark on their head, a code imprinted upon them that accompanies them for life. Why do you not have one?" Utus asked with a raspy voice.
A tall bun is styled on the head, adorned with numerous precious gemstones
Has outer space and the devil of the * picture * book chosen Chinese as the universal language of this world
I have said that he is not a follower of the Earth Saint Religion, Wu Tu said淡淡.
It is precisely because it is too profound and too abstract that it is not suitable for the modern computer civilization that emerged later
Ming slowly stood up and glanced at the watch on his wrist
This made Ming very curious and extremely excited, a feeling that was quite strange, even evoking a sense of eeriness
This makes the woman appear particularly tall, with her figure's curves being especially pronounced. The shapes of both her breasts and hips are distinctly accentuated.
This woman is truly remarkable, especially her curvaceous figure, which is absolutely exceptional. She is merely a maid, yet one wonders how alluring the princess herself must be. In the previous realm where beauty was paramount, he immediately began to entertain ulterior motives, his gaze following this woman's body with an intensity that became particularly penetrating.
Before becoming a biochemical warrior, Ming was already the top expert in the world at that time
He can follow our route and, upon reaching land, be allowed to leave on his own immediately" the princess added, then stood at the bow of the ship, gazing into the vast ocean, lost in thought
"I cannot prove your identity, so I can only regard you as the lowest of slaves!" The dandy said, "People of different ranks wear clothes of different ranks. Until you can prove your identity and status, you can only wear this thorny cloth shirt."
Whether it is those incredibly precise physical formulas, mathematical formulas, or the later computer languages, the rigidity and rigor of Western letters seem to perfectly align with the expression of the technological civilization of that era
Just like the anchors of those major television stations, they are equally standard
Their reaction left Ming Chao feeling displeased, but the damned biochemical system has not yet recovered, preventing him from becoming a super soldier, so he can only remain frustrated for now
However, when the wizard stated that the underworld only had warriors of the third rank, both Qing Ji and even that female soldier couldn't help but curl their lips, especially Qing Ji, who openly expressed his disdain
He is the stranger who was shipwrecked at sea, and we rescued him!" said Wu Tu.
"Why say these things?" The diviner glanced at General Qingji and said: "After the South Sea's solitary province was occupied by the cult, they were unable to obtain what they desired. Therefore, our situation has remained perilous; we are surrounded by crises, with countless enemies watching us. On the road to escape, it is best to say as little as possible."
The face is covered with a veil, making the features indistinguishable. Even the hands are adorned with transparent blue gloves
"What is that?" The young master in the fitted cloak coldly fixed his gaze on the electronic display device in Ming's hand and asked coldly.
This is the princess they were just talking about!
All the sailors on the deck turned around, facing the sea, with their backs to the many women slowly walking up onto the deck
About ten minutes later, Ming Qing clearly sensed two footsteps approaching, and then the atmosphere suddenly became infused with a chilling and eerie aura.
Wu Tu glanced at Ming's scalp, and those green, glistening little eyes suddenly narrowed, while the body trembled violently
Let Lord Wutu assess his physical condition. If there is no magical power within him and he does not possess sufficient strength to pose a threat to us, then he shall be released. The lady-in-waiting, suppressing her flushed face and racing heart, spoke hastily and quickly descended from the cabin
The self-repair of the biochemical system is in progress, currently at 33%
"What is that on your wrist?" the young man in a fitted outfit continued to inquire, his gaze fixed intently on the electronic watch on Ming's wrist
"It is!'' That divination master, Mr. Zu, walked towards the stern of the ship, presumably to invite the wizard, Lord Wu Tu, aboard.
The fact that the people before me communicate in Chinese suggests that they excel in spiritual, intellectual, and self-cultivation. However, their achievements in technology and industry are significantly lagging behind
Ming noticed their weapons; the soldiers were holding rifles that were two meters tall
This is a terrifying army of cold weapons
This means that the biochemical system cannot engage in conflict with the group before it is fully repaired
She does not appear overly fragile, for her figure is both slender and voluptuous, and her face does not seem gaunt either
Having said that, Ming casually extended his hand, adopting a posture that suggested he was willing to let anyone take it away.
This means that the ordinary infantry here, when placed in 21st century Earth, surpasses any elite agents cultivated by various governments with countless efforts, at least in terms of combat capability
These soldiers, in addition to the long spears in their hands, also have broad-bladed swords sheathed at their waists and powerful crossbows on their backs, all made of metal.
He is extremely curious
The female officials wore blue garments, while numerous maidservants donned green attire. Dozens of women surrounded a woman clad entirely in white, slowly ascending the deck like stars encircling the moon
Oh! The princess said lightly, then turned and walked towards the bow of the ship, saying: "Give him a small boat, an octopus, enough water and food, and let him disembark!"
In a powerful mercenary group or special forces, he can also defeat a dozen mercenaries or agents
"General Qingji cannot be taken down; it seems to be growing up there," said the soldier
Only Ming stood straight, his gaze traveling from the bottom of the princess's feet upward, pausing slightly at the lower abdomen, lingering at the chest, and finally resting on her face
To a large extent, Chinese is conducive to exploration in the realms of spirit and thought
Having said that, the diviner glanced at Ming, indicating that there were outsiders present at that moment
Wait! All of Ming's thoughts suddenly came to a halt, for he had discovered something utterly astonishing
Because this clothing is very uncomfortable, very stiff, and very scratchy
Moreover, even if a few Chinese books were to remain, how could they possibly recognize them? How could they read them without missing a single word?
The pruning blades are entirely made of metal, shining brilliantly, appearing extremely sharp in contrast to the *illustration*.
There is no magic power within the body, with an arm strength of 530 pounds, a leg strength of 1,100 pounds, and a sweeping leg strength of 1,600 pounds. This is equivalent to a third-tier warrior. Without weapons, one could defeat twelve ordinary soldiers on the ship. The wizard said this in a faint voice, sending chills down the listener's spine.
The man in the muscular cloak glanced at Ming Chi's bare lower body, frowned, and said: "Give him a piece of clothing, right, it should be a cloth garment"
They do have good clothes; the female official just now, as well as the garments worn by the diviner, are even better than the finest silk on Earth before.
Wearing a hat, two bright green eyes are revealed
After a while, two soldiers came to unlock the armor that was locked on Ming.
The soldier brought the clothes, and upon putting them on, he couldn't help but frown slightly
Then, two gazes shot forth like lightning, emitting a terrifying green light
Opening is akin to closing, and closing is akin to opening
The complexion is extremely pale, the nose is crooked, and the lips are pale with a hint of blue.
Certainly, all the forces mentioned earlier are in the absence of the biochemical system's functioning
After sleeping for ten thousand years, the entire world has changed
Dozens to hundreds of soldiers lined up, standing neatly along the edge of the deck, their eyes fixed straight ahead. Only their breathing became very rapid, and their feet trembled slightly
The fabric of the clothing is unknown, it is very thin yet appears to be heavy
Suddenly, Ming felt a gust of wind blow over his head. His secret hair parted neatly to the sides, revealing the scalp in the middle
How could they possibly be speaking Chinese? By that time, the aliens had already destroyed all the buildings, all the people, all the cities, all the villages, and all the towns in this world
The impudent gaze of Ming caused the princess to avert her eyes from his direct stare. She then pridefully cast a fleeting glance at Ming before淡淡 turning to Wu Tu and asking, "Who is he?"
The elongated and slender hand protruded, delving into the eyehole of the abyss.
Is it a slave? Just take a look! Wu Tu stepped forward and lightly brushed his palm through the air.
Ming clearly understands that Chinese is the most profound and beautiful language in his world. It can convey the most exquisite artistic conception, express the most vivid emotions, and articulate the most intricate feelings.
This is merely the weapon of an ordinary soldier, which demonstrates their exceptional level of forging craftsmanship
Across the entire deck, one can follow with their gaze the woman who is about to arrive; only General Qingji and the wizard Wutu, as well as the soothsayer, can only lower their heads and look at the ground.
"Who exactly are you?" the voice rasped, as the white claw hidden in the sleeve trembled incessantly
The snow-white long dress is adorned with blue gemstones
Then cut off the hand!" the coldly spoken young master said.
Ming immediately closed his eyes, and then that claw-like hand touched his eyelids
The long, chestnut-colored hair cascades down like a waterfall, with a delicate and exquisite diamond pendant chain hanging from the crown of the head to the forehead, resembling ethereal teardrops
