Transcendent Dawn - 772. Chapter 772

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 of soldiers’ income, this did not prevent him from passing on 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 at 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 had also got up and was eating breakfast leisurely.

“teacher!”

Jupiter came to Sulu respectfully.

“Hmm… 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…”

Sulu said leisurely.

Jupiter’s little face was full of bitterness.

Learning Common Language has already made him very strenuous, and Orc Language challenges his throat pronunciation.

“Teacher… why should I learn so many languages?”

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

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

“Ha ha……”

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 multiplying, 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…in the language, there is 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 felt that although the teacher was clever, but too lazy, he only taught him the most basic grammar and language every time, and he had to read the book 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!”

“what?!”

Jupiter looked scared.

“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 knight adults know?”

“Reading a lot of books is always good, I know.” Su Lu pointed to his nose: “So… do you want to be a’hero’?”

“Um!”

Jupiter nodded vigorously.

…

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

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

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

“What happened?”

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

“Bring the wine…”

Herak put down his palm and said in a low voice: “I am a veteran of the city state, they actually laid off me? I am good at all kinds of fighting and killing skills…the damn city officials…”

“But…there is no war…”

Spann said softly.

“Woman get out!” Herak cursed, raising his hip flask and swigging.

Spann could only hold and cry with his two daughters.

This scene left a deep impression on Jupiter.

Although he still doesn’t understand what is unemployment, but 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 there is no war, only a certain number of soldiers will be retained. The abolition of veterans is nothing more than normal…”

Sulu looked at this scene thoughtfully.

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

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

If there are slaves, it is even more profitable.

However, 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 already middle-aged and has lost his youthful vitality.

Jupiter looked at this scene with the same sadness in his heart. Even after passing the exam, the teacher was willing to teach him the heroic way.

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

“Turing, I’m so sorry…”

Span greeted him with an apologetic expression.

“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 escort for the team, Herak. , Are you interested?”

“what?”

Herak immediately regained his spirit.

He was just borrowing wine to pour his sorrows. The wines of this era don’t have many degrees, 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 risk-takers-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!”
