The Last Dark King

Chapter 9 Value

Kingworth College held a very grand welcome ceremony for the new students.

As soon as the students got off the bus, they were sent to a huge auditorium, where hundreds of teachers were already waiting.

The air was filled with clumps of firelight, the long table was filled with sparkling wine glasses, and stars were twinkling on the velvet-like dark ceiling.

Rhodes had never seen such a magical and magnificent auditorium.

The welcome ceremony was grand, but the orientation session was brief.

A dean named Vera raised his wine glass, and the students and teachers drank the strange wine in the wine glass together and it ended.

But the enthusiasm of the teachers shows that the college is not taking them lightly.

They actively help students handle various admissions matters so that they can integrate into the college and settle down as soon as possible.

I have to say, this efficiency is really very high.

Not long after, Rhodes received baskets of supplies and returned to the dormitory assigned to him.

What he didn't expect was that the dormitory was actually a private room.

The room, which is about 40 square meters, has tables, chairs, bookshelves, wardrobes, beds, and all kinds of daily necessities.

There is even a separate bathroom and balcony.

For students, such a dormitory can no longer be described as luxurious, it is simply a dream.

Rhodes tried it and found that there was actually a supply of running water, even hot and cold.

The sewer system is also very advanced, with floor drains and traps, proving that they fully understand the corresponding engineering construction knowledge.

This is by no means an ignorant country. Even in such a harsh environment, they have developed knowledge and civilization.

After closing the dormitory door and looking at the exquisite and tidy room in front of him, Rhodes felt like he was at home.

Indeed, on a scary night, in a strange environment, having a closed space of your own provides comfort and stability, away from threats and disturbances.

Isn't this home?

Rhodes really wanted to throw all the clutter in his hands and all the distracting thoughts in his head on the ground, ignore everything, and have a good sleep.

However, this is impossible.

He still knew too little about this world, and he knew very little about their various strange features.

The danger is not far away and the investigation continues.

My interrogation before the Internal Affairs Tribunal was coming soon, and I knew no more about the truth than before.

I also want to figure out the secrets in dreams as soon as possible and find the relationship between them.

alive.

Rhodes thought.

I must live.

——

But this is no simple matter.

The environment here is not as relaxed as in the original world. He is unfamiliar with the place and is still in trouble.

More than 200 members of the Hongshi Village relocation team died in the wilderness. As a suspect, he was able to receive such treatment entirely because of his superb ventriloquism.

This also proves that under such conditions, holding the thigh is a very good choice.

"Looks like I'm going to try to hug a few more ladies' thighs... My stunts don't come in vain."

"Hey, it's a pity that the new king is a man, and I don't know the banana magic skill."

Rhodes sighed, feeling a little out of character.

But in order to survive, moral integrity is not important.

Even if he was asked to warm the bed of that stinky little girl Kashan every day, he would still be able to accept it.

In addition to hugging your thighs, the second method is to strengthen yourself.

According to the information obtained so far, the humans here are isolated and trapped in the darkness. They must be in great need of combat power.

If he can show strong potential, then the Internal Affairs Judgment Office should not touch him easily.

If he is worth five armored divisions, then it is probably okay to let the princess wear black stockings to show him.

But the problem is, he probably didn't actually pass the final test of the Trial of Fire, nor did he ignite his soul.

There must be something wrong in this, which caused their misjudgment.

The biggest suspicion is naturally that strange dream.

And he also has many questions that he needs to return to dreams to find answers to.

"But how do I go back?"

Rhodes was a little worried.

"Are you going to see the nun again for some major health care?"

Although this is very reasonable, when I think about it carefully, I feel that it is not easy to handle.

If he went back to the User Medical Clinic, it would probably be Aunt User who would go to battle in person.

The taste was too strong, and even his small body couldn't bear it.

It is also unrealistic to ask nuns to do it.

The only solution was to find another church medical center.

However, it is impossible for him to have prostitution for free in a strange club that he does not know, and he will definitely be charged for it.

According to Aunt Usher, their church medical clinic seems to be a very high-end club.

Comprehensive health care in high-end clubs must cost a lot of money.

Rhodes took out the weekly salary that had just been paid to him from his pocket.

There were seven silver coins in total, the largest was no bigger than a thumb, and the smallest was not even half a fingernail.

The workmanship of the silver coin is very fine, with anti-friction patterns on the edges. On the front is the head of the legendary human hero Trorian, the founder of the royal city, and on the back is a burning flame, surrounded by a large shield and a sharp sword.

This is the silver cord that is the currency of the Trorian Kingdom.

Seven silver coins, a total of twenty-two silver cords.

Rhodes took out a silver note from his other pocket.

It is also delicate and thin, with hollow patterns and a somewhat soft texture, proving to be made of sterling silver.

The banknote has a sun pattern on the front and a flaming crown on the back.

The face value is twenty silver cords.

Judging from the form of currency, there are obviously transactions and markets in the kingdom, and the population should exceed tens of millions.

Otherwise, there is no need to issue currency and just implement a rationing system.

However, the currency is made of precious metals and is not a pure credit currency, which proves that their monetary concept is not advanced enough and it is not a true free market.

There should be some items that are under control and cannot be purchased with money alone.

This is in line with the current situation.

When a regime faces a strong external threat, it will inevitably use force to uniformly allocate materials in order to maximize utilization.

In fact, it is incredible that this kingdom can have currency and free markets.

Rhodes weighed the money in his hand, and found a total of forty-two silver cords.

According to Wayne, a barrel of blue mushroom soup costs one silver rope, a bottle of blue junco fruit wine costs two silver ropes, and a full meal for a day costs five silver ropes.

These forty-two silver cords, no matter how frugal they are, can only last for ten days.

According to this consumption, consumption in high-end clubs should start at least one thousand silver cords, right?

Then doesn’t he have to save up for five months just to go to Dreamland?

"No, five months is too long. The grass on my grave might be ten meters high."

what to do?

While Rhodes was thinking about this problem, he put away the things distributed one by one, mainly books, clothes, scales, squares and other tools.

I took another comfortable hot bath and washed away all the dirt and blood on my body.

Throw away the tattered clothes and put on the Jinworth College uniform.

When Rhodes stood in front of the floor-length mirror again, his whole person took on a completely new look.

With a clean face, wet hair, pale eyes with strange charm, and a brand new, well-tailored light blue robe, a sunny and bookish big boy appeared in front of him.

call.

Rhodes took a long breath, and the boy in the mirror also took a big breath.

There were too many things he experienced on this day, and he only persisted until now with his superhuman perseverance and strong desire to survive.

Black mist, fire, monsters, extraordinary beings, weird dreams, the royal city with strange customs, as well as this magical academy and enthusiastic classmates.

Recalling everything, it's like being in a dream.

Yesterday's life seemed far away from him.

A life full of unknowns has unfolded before his eyes.

"If this is a dream, wish me sweet dreams."

"If not, then I hope I can find the value of existence in the waking world."

Rhodes smiled softly and lay on the bed.

His spirit was already exhausted, and when his head touched the soft pillow, all his thoughts were interrupted.
