Chapter 231 The people at the bottom always suffer
As Lyon and his crew got closer and closer to the orc capital, what they saw along the way stimulated everyone.
The Orc Empire has a strict hierarchy that even the Demon Empire cannot match.
Although the nobles controlled the politics of the Demon Empire, they were relatively open-minded in military terms, and a considerable number of nobles did not prohibit civilians from being promoted in the army.
After all, not all nobles are fools. They know that if they want to gain long-term benefits, someone must pay for the empire.
And for those common people who desire fame, wealth and power, it is the best choice.
But the Orc Empire is different. It has a strict hierarchy.
It is very likely that civilians will remain civilians for their entire lives...
The Orc Empire also has a class of slaves.
Moreover, the treatment of slaves in the Orc Empire is the worst among all countries.
Although the Holy Empire has slaves, it allows slaves to learn knowledge.
To learn magic, or even fighting spirit, or even to join the army.
If you have made contributions to the empire, you can apply to remove your slave status.
Ordinary people can also succeed by learning magic and fighting spirit.
This is also the reason why the Holy Empire has been able to stand for thousands of years.
There is not only a group of patriots, but also a group of people who dare to make sacrifices.
But the Orc Empire is different. Their strict system deprives civilians of the opportunity to climb up.
Therefore, if civilians want to obtain wealth, there is only one way, and that is to plunder in a war of aggression!
The atmosphere among the upper class of the entire Orc Empire is one of decadence and debauchery, while the atmosphere among the lower class is full of aggression and the law of the jungle.
Due to constant internal struggles and external invasions, the overall strength of the people of the Orc Empire is much stronger.
They are not born to be warlike, but they are forced to do so...
As he walked along the way and looked at everything on the road, Leon realized that being a soldier in the Orc Empire was not a bad thing.
Because at least when you become a soldier, you won't have to face the looks of those nobles anymore. Even in the army, you can't avoid being bullied, but it's better than staying in the Orc Empire, facing the nobles and living in fear all day long.
Because many nobles are very tyrannical under the influence of orc genes.
Often abuses civilians in the territory.
The civilians are angry but dare not speak out, and this phenomenon becomes more obvious the closer one gets to the capital of the Orc Empire.
Along the way, in just three days, Lyon saw ten cases of nobles whipping civilians.
Three civilians were even beaten to death.
Is this the Orc Empire?
Originally, he thought that everyone in the Orc Empire deserved to die, but now, as he walked along, Leon discovered that there were still some good people in the Orc Empire.
It seems that all countries are the same, whether strong or weak, there are patriots and parasites.
In this case, Leon said that he doesn't mind being a devil for once and having a fight of natural selection!
At least Leon could bear the situation in the Demon Empire, but the situation in the Orc Empire was too much for Leon to bear.
Leon even had the idea of destroying the Orc Empire.
This country should not exist in this world.
Leon even saw a little orc girl carrying firewood that was three times heavier than herself to the town to sell for money.
The little girl was only 10 years old at most. At this age, she should be old enough to go to school, whether in her previous life or in Dayan.
But in the Orc Empire, one has to struggle for a living.
What's even more ironic is that next to the little girl, a noble child was holding a toy bought from the store. Not only that, after playing with it for a few times, the child threw the newly bought toy on the ground and stepped on it into pieces.
The little girl on the side could only watch helplessly...
This toy only costs five copper coins...
But it became a permanent regret in the little girl's childhood...
Some Dayan soldiers couldn't stand it any longer, but Hans and William held them back because this was someone else's territory.
At least they couldn't take any action until Leon gave the order.
After all, Barian is there to back them up. To be honest, even if the capital of the Orc Empire is blown up, Barian can still ensure that everyone escapes unscathed...
This thought only flashed through everyone's mind for a moment, because it was impossible to really blow up all the beasts in the Orc Empire, right?
What I didn't expect was that Leon actually did this...
Everyone soon arrived at the orc capital.
Lyon and his companions were not worried about their human identities, and they pretended to be a merchant group from the Papal States.
The Papal States is also a human force, and in the eyes of the people of the Orc Empire, the Papal States is the happiest place.
There was endless food and people's faces were filled with smiles.
These are what the church has been promoting. The church is God’s messenger, and everything it says is true.
The soldiers guarding the city were collecting tolls at the gate. When they saw Lyon and his group, they were instantly in awe.
While sternly urging the civilians in front of him to leave, he welcomed Leon and his party into the capital with a smile.
They didn't even check it and just let it go.
This shocked Lyon and the others. What level of guard is this?
Just let Leon and the others go in so openly?
In order to cope with the inspection, Leon and his men even put away their weapons and stored them in storage rings.
Now, when they tell Leon and the others, these guards, whose noses are sharper than dogs', didn't check them at all.
After a brief shock, Lyon and his men decisively entered the city.
As soon as you enter the city, you can feel the gap between inside and outside the city.
If the society outside the city is a primitive society, then the society inside the city can be said to be a modern society.
Of course, this is just an exaggeration of the credibility gap.
The capital of the Orc Empire is not dirty or messy, but very clean and tidy.
It can even be compared to Sin City.
This made Leon wonder why the capital of the Orc Empire was so clean?
At first, Leon was impressed by the Orc Empire's excellent cleaning work.
But the reality is something Lyon simply cannot accept.
Because the reality is that the Orc Empire used a large number of slaves and let these slaves clean the streets.
However, these slaves had to work at least 14 hours a day.
Moreover, slaves did not receive any wages and could be abused at will.
In those alleys, under the cover of straw mats, were the bodies of the dead slaves...
This is what makes Leon most angry, treating human life as worthless...
Leon then ordered Hans to go outside the city to prepare Gustav.
He wanted to make the Orc Empire realize what the power of the people was...
At the same time, Leon went to the bookstore in the Orc Empire to collect some maps and documents of the Orc Empire.
After all, we can’t attack the wrong place when we attack the Orc Empire in the future...
