Only the gods can lead humanity. - General History of the World: Preface

...

Respect, fear, awe...

Each of the three attributes has its own corresponding value, which is currently 0, and I don't know what their purpose is.

It should be some kind of evolutionary channel.

If you refuse the contract, you will be punished, you will be killed, or you will not be given anything? Why are you throwing it into this world and putting on the so-called triple shackles?

Therefore, Chino guessed that although the brand of the denier blocked the regular evolutionary channel, it also opened another abnormal evolutionary channel, and on him was this triple shackle of "respect, fear, and awe".

How can I increase my stats? With the current information, it is unknown, and the supreme existence is not said, and follow-up testing is needed.

After getting a general understanding of the triple shackles that appeared in the brain area, Chino sat back in his chair, found a pair of white gloves from the drawer, washed them, and dried them by the candle fire.

Immediately afterward, he found a weapon hanging on the wall, a delicate pocket hand crossbow.

He put on white gloves and used the expertise of the processors to modify the pocket crossbow so that it could be hidden under his wrist sleeve, and then began to flip through books to learn about himself and the world.

Idle books, miscellaneous books, literary masterpieces, etc., do not read first, time is pressing, the main thing is to read historical books, documents, legal codes, so that you can understand and integrate into the world as soon as possible.

Noticing that he was wearing a military uniform, he also looked at some military materials and memorized conventional military gestures.

Thankfully, the original "Chino" in this world has the habit of writing a diary, so that the current Chino can roughly sort out his positioning.

He was in the kingdom of "Dogurand", which was divided into six provinces and was ruled by the royal family and the five royal families.

This is a feudal old kingdom system, where each noble family has its own lord and has the right to rule in the fiefdom, but needs to obey the orders of the supreme leader of the kingdom, that is, the king, to pay taxes regularly, provide military endowments, forced labor, etc.

His full name in this world is "Chino Van Helsing", and he comes from an ancient family in decline, and he was enshrined in the town of Shirin, on the border of the kingdom, as a civil magistrate.

The population of Shirin Town is around 5,000, and the civil magistrate is the so-called mayor.

His duties are to handle the day-to-day affairs of Shirin, lead the troops to control entry and exit, and...

Prevent smuggling.

Twenty-six years ago, after the death of the previous king, a vicious epidemic suddenly spread in Dogulander, and the infected people showed signs of "bestiality", and the brain blocks were also affected by the epidemic, gradually losing their humanity, and their spirits were twisted and falling into madness.

The kingdom's doctors and alchemists have been searching for a cure, but have been at a loss.

Later, the initial control of the disease was made possible by a substance called "salt crystals".

Salt crystals are a product obtained by alchemists in the laboratory, and they have found in practice that if the infected area is decontaminated with salt crystals, the number of clusters of infections will be significantly reduced.

Chino looked through the knowledge of salt crystals, had a preliminary understanding of its physical and chemical properties, compared them with the industrial products of the previous life, and found nothing that could be connected to it, which should be a unique substance of this world.

If you have to make an analogy, its characteristics are similar to sodium chloride, and the entrance has a salty taste, but the salt crystals themselves are blue and colorless after dissolving.

All in all, after the salt crystal was introduced, due to its epidemic prevention characteristics, the price once soared, and it was finally included in the military control products by the royal family of Dogurland, which was uniformly allocated by the kingdom.

But at such a crazy price, there are naturally people who rush to it for money.

In recent years, the manufacturing methods and utensils of salt crystal have long been completely blocked, and no one can make them privately.

However, the black market has been inspected for salt crystals of unknown origin, which are obviously imported from abroad.

These black market salt crystal transactions are not included in taxes, and the security cannot be guaranteed, so the royal family naturally cracked down on this, and ordered all local borders to strictly prevent salt crystal smuggling.

The town of Shilin, where Chino is located, is such an important border town.

He read by candle and night, and roughly flipped through those old books, and had a preliminary understanding of his identity and the background of the world.

By this time, the night was already dawning.

With the approaching footsteps, the door was pushed open without knocking, and a soldier in rudimentary armor walked in: "There is a caravan entering the country, and your stamp is needed." ”

Chino turned his back to him and said, "Your Excellency." ”

The soldier was stunned: "What? ”

"Before entering, knock on the door and ask for permission, and then address me as Lord Civil Officer." Chino closed the book and turned around, his gaze falling on the nameplate of his clothes, "It's the most basic courtesy, isn't it?" Captain Devon Wood. ”

Steven's attitude was contemptuous, and he even snorted briefly through his nose.

It turned out that Chino was a person with no ability and majesty, and the reason why he was able to become the civil magistrate of Shilin Town was only because of the residual reputation of his family, and he was also very lazy in governing on weekdays, and the soldiers never respected him.

Steven didn't realize that Chino was no longer the same scrap he used to be, but a smiling demon.

Chino suddenly asked, "Captain Tivan, do you fear me?" ”

Steven had a question mark: "What do you mean?" ”

Chino: "Say, you fear me." ”

Steven thought that this person might have had his head caught in the door when he was a child, but after all, he was a chief, so he just rolled his eyes and said nonchalantly, "I am in awe of you." ”

Hearing the sound, Chino entered the triple shackles interface again, and found that the three values of respect, fear, and awe were still all 0.

This is an experiment to test the method of obtaining numerical values.

At least for now, it is certain that words are invalid, and that it is useless to just make others say respect, fear, and awe.

Chino didn't say much, buttoned his shirt, smoothed the folds of his clothes, and walked out with Steven.

On the way, Devon reported some information: "Mirlo caravan, our old acquaintance. The caravan was loaded with cargo, a total of 16 people, 14 caravan escorts, plus Mirlo and his son. ”

Chino: "Gather the men and inspect the goods." ”

Devon said casually: "We have checked it, there is no problem, you can just sign and let go." ”

Chino stopped: "I'm not there, so you make sure that the goods are correct?" ”

Devin was stunned for a moment, and said impatiently: "Annoying people, then you can check it yourself." ”

Chino looked sideways at Tivan, his eyes full of meaningful smiles, and slowly left.

Steven didn't know what the smile meant, only felt a little uncomfortable.

The town of Shirin is located on the border and has a dry and harsh climate.

A convoy was waiting at the gate, and more than a dozen soldiers from Shilin Town were standing lazily and bored.

The caravan leader, Mirlo, was delivering some air-dried meat to the soldiers, and they did not hesitate to accept it.

Soon, Mirlo noticed the approaching young man, and he respectfully stepped forward, bowed his head and said, "Good morning, Lord Civil Officer." I noticed that your soldiers were not in good spirits, so I gave them a little dried meat to replenish their strength, hoping that you would not take this as a bribe. ”
