If the Duke does not give up, he will be the merciful father

"Do you know the caste system?"

Takar said after a moment of silence.

Lu Mingfei shook his head. He had never learned this knowledge.

Akina Sakai and Genko knew something, but since Takara, the White Elephant Man, was there, it was naturally more suitable for him.

When it comes to caste system, many people think of this noun when it comes to white elephant.

In fact, it not only has white elephants, but it is a social system based on bloodline theory that is common in South Asian countries such as Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. It is only particularly serious in white elephants.

This system divides people into four levels, namely Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya, and Shudra.

The Brahmin is the mouth of the creation god Brahma, a monk and nobleman who controls culture, education, religion and calendar.

Kshatriya is the hand of Brahma, a military and administrative nobleman, who controls politics, military and taxation.

Vaishya is the leg of Brahma, an ordinary person, without political privileges, and is responsible for engaging in production and doing business to support Brahmins and Kshatriya.

Shudra is the foot of Brahma, the caste with the lowest status, mainly engaged in the industry of servants or craftsmen, and has the most populous caste.

It is strictly prohibited for men of lower caste to marry women of higher caste. Once it happens, it will be broken up at the least, and will be executed directly at the worst.

Although men of higher caste who are married to women of lower caste are allowed, it is not recommended that children born will be regarded as hybrids.

In addition to the four major castes, there is also a fifth caste, which is Dalit, also known as "unfamiliar" or "untouchable".

They were not born from Brahma's body, so they were not considered human, nor were they considered caste.

Dalit does the cheapest and most arduous job, but he has almost no rights.

"My father is a Dalit."

Takar struggled to mention his past, which was a dark history that he did not want to look back on.

"Because of dragon blood, he is stronger and smarter than Brahmins. But he has no chance to go to school or join the army because he is a Dalit."

"He can only be a corpse collector, dealing with rotten and smelly corpses day after day."

And those corpses are often Dalit who died because of excessive work or abuse but no one took them away.

"And my mother is a saint who was kicked out of the temple because of illness."

Takar's tone was quite ironic when he spoke the word Saint.

Some Dalit families are forced to sell themselves to the temple after their daughters enter puberty and become the target of venting among high-ranking monks, that is, people of higher castes.

They are called "saints" in a way that they want to cover up. When they reach a certain age, the old "saints" will be abandoned, and the new "saints" will be selected to offer sacrifices and reincarnate for generations.

The "saints" who were kicked out of the temple will not be accepted by their original families, and their fate is often a dead end.

Takar's mother was lucky. Takar's father picked her up and stole medicine to cure her illness.

Two lowly people depended on each other in this way, became fathers without anyone's blessing, and gave birth to Takara.

But once Takaal's mother took him to the street to buy things, and it happened that his father went out for something and was not accompanied by him.

Takar's mother was seen by the temple people. Her beauty aroused the greed of the monks. They pulled her away despite her resistance and threw Takar into the stinky ditch.

After his father came back, he went to the temple to ask for his wife, but was beaten to death by the thugs of the temple.

Three days later, his mother's broken body was also thrown out of the temple.

"I survived by stealing things, begging, and purging garbage. I was taken as a son-in-law by the powerful because of the awakening of the high-level dragon bloodline. I finally had the status I had always dreamed of, but my anger never stopped for a moment."

Takaal pulled out the scimitar inserted at his waist, and Akina Sakai and Genko pulled out their weapons vigilantly, but he ignored them.

"Because not only can I not take revenge, but in order to gain the trust of the Spiritual Order and show my loyalty, I also want to kiss the toes of those enemies!"

Takar almost roared at the end. He held the scimitar and cut it on his leg, and blood flowed out like money.

The severe pain twisted his face, but at the same time it calmed a lot, as if his anger was temporarily flowing out of his body through the blood.

"I am willing to help you find the Tianlong Pearl and serve you. I can also solve the revenge by myself, as long as I can provide me with shelter."

Takaar held up the bloody scimitar with both hands and knelt down in front of Lu Mingfei on one knee.

"If you don't dislike me, I'd like to worship you as your adoptive father."

He said seriously.

"Um?"

Two big question marks appeared on Sakai Akina and Genko's heads.

"Isn't this a custom in China? If you want to surrender to anyone, you will be your adopted son."

Takar didn't know what they were wondering about.

That's right, but Lu Mingfei will definitely not be able to accept this cheap son.

"I don't need a son. But if you are willing to fight for humanity, I accept your surrender on behalf of the war team."

He picked up the scimitar from Takar's hand.

"As long as you provide me with shelter, I will offer you my loyalty."

Takaal stood up and took back the scimitar from Lu Mingfei's hand.

"Continue to talk about the Tianlong Pearl."

He said.

"Yes. Tanfandoli's experimental field is underground in the Himalayas, but is concealed by the alchemy field and can only be entered through a specific entrance."

"And this Tibalam Temple is built on an entrance, please follow me."

Takar limped towards the apse of the temple, and the three followed him.

When they arrived at the apse, a well covered by thick steel plates appeared in front of them.

But the steel plate looks familiar no matter how you look at it.

Looking at their subtle gaze, Takaar explained.

"This is the armor removed from Arjun's main battle tank."

Arjun's main battle tank is the first modern main battle tank developed by White Elephant in the mid-1970s with Germany.

The research and development took a full thirty years and set a world record, but it was still just a trial model.

In fact, due to frequent technical failures and difficulty in importing some parts, most Arjun main battle tanks cannot be used normally.

It is reasonable to use waste as manhole covers.

In fact, with the personality of the Sans, it is normal to use tanks as manhole covers directly, as long as they can move.

"This is the Dragon King Well. According to the literature of the Spiritual Society, it will open in two days. As long as we jump into this well, we can enter the Himalayan dragon vein and follow the dragon vein to the experimental field of Tanfantuli."

Takaar introduced.

"Why do you need to cover it with steel?"

Lu Mingfei asked.

"Because the Dragon King Well is closed to people and open to the monsters in the dragon vein. If things are not blocked, they will break through the Dragon King Well and come to the human world."

Takaar explained.

"But those monsters are not the most terrifying, and the more terrifying are the dragons."

"What is Longzhong?"

Lu Mingfei asked.
