The Ominous Lord of the Skaven

Chapter 31 The Wave of Learning

Since Genil really doesn't know how to count, in the end Yarrow offered to help count the armaments.

After loss and replenishment along the way, the territory currently has 90 spears, 28 steel swords, 85 knives, 80 shields, 80 bows, and 150 slings.

There are also 90 sets of intact mail armor and 3 sets of leather armor re-kneaded by the tanner, 20 iron helmets, 1600 bows and arrows in stock, and 1000 crossbow arrows.

This kind of armament can be said to be abundant in martial arts. Coupled with the repairs by blacksmiths and carpenters, Ickert estimates that the initial consumption of the territory is absolutely sufficient.

It was his military director who really stretched his hips a bit.

In fact, Ikert can recruit a down-and-out knight to rule the Ratmen, but in the final analysis, his golden fingers are still the Rats.

There is no such reason in the world to let other people rule over one's golden finger.

But it is difficult for Jenier to take on the big job at present, and there is a lack of cultural rats in the next step. It is also a troublesome thing to summon cultural rats. In the short term, Ickert has no expectations for this.

Therefore, letting the mice learn and become cultural mice is the only solution. For this reason, Ickert hopes that Genil can give other mice a good head.

"Jenil, I am very dissatisfied with your ability."

Ickert said mercilessly, which caused an uproar in Jeniel's heart.

Since he was promoted to Stormrat, this is the first time the clan leader has denied him!

how come!how so!
Genil's fragile heart as a Skaven was shattered just like that.

After finally climbing up from the slave mouse, if the clan chief is not satisfied, he will fall from his current position!
Genelle knew very well what the life of a slave rat was like, so he never wanted to experience it again!
In the cruel Skaven underground society, there is no such thing as a wounded slave rat, because once a slave rat becomes weak, its only fate is to be eaten by its companions.

Genil suddenly realized that he was born as a light-colored squirrel with brown fur, and he was not born as strong as the black-furred stormrat, nor did he have the talent for casting spells like the gray prophet.

The reason why he can have today's status is all because of the clan chief's promotion of him!
He is not as good as those Ratmen who were born with golden keys in their mouths. His class position is not stable and may be taken away at any time!
Not to mention whether the clan chief will summon the real Stormrat in the future, this human named Yarrow is always threatening his status!

Genie felt an unprecedented crisis when his own job required others to do it!
So he began to look for the reason. According to the consistent thinking of the skaven, every skaven thinks that he is the most intelligent individual in the group.

Therefore, it must be Yarrow's fault. It is this human being who instilled wrong concepts into the clan leader. He, Genil, is not some useless rat man!

In order to deal with his own status crisis, the first thing Genil thought of was assassination, or planting, in short, he wanted to kill this stumbling block called Yarrow!

But he also thought of the first commandment of the loving clan set by the chief of the Yiket clan.

To frame others is to frame yourself!

This made Genil have to consider the consequences of assassinating Yarrow. According to the temper of the clan leader, he should be killed by a sword.

As for framing, Genil felt that although he was very smart, he would inevitably overturn in Yarrow's hands.

Not to mention that the lord is still a noble mage!Nothing can be hidden from him!

Since you can't assassinate or frame someone, how can you win the competition?

Jenny was completely clueless.

In fact, Ickert probably knew what his rat man leader was thinking.

After all, the setting is as stubborn as a mind imprint, which can help him accurately analyze the Ratman's thinking.

And after seeing Genil froze after being nervous, Ickert also realized that his precepts probably worked.

Rat people have a special way of achieving class transition. They do not rely on ability more, but rely on means to ascend to a high position, and then start to learn more advanced knowledge in a higher position.

But in the Love Clan, all this will be reversed.

"Jenil, you need to learn."

"Learning? Sniff, Sir Clan Chief, what is learning?"

Genil lived up to expectations and asked this stupid question, not because he didn't know the meaning of the word study, but because he didn't know what study was for.

In Genil's view, studying is just to get a more advanced job for the clan leaders.

So in the Love Clan of Eckert, learning must mean more, and he must point out a new direction for promotion for the rat people under him.

"Learn, and then gain more knowledge. In our loving clan, only educated cultural rats can be qualified for high positions, and only cultural rats can be promoted!"

Ickert said unhurriedly that starting the wave of learning is only his first step in cultivating rat people. In his future plans, he will also let the rat people develop their morality, intelligence, physique, art and labor in an all-round way.

"Learn! Promote! Learn! Yes! Yes! Clan Chief! Please let me learn knowledge!"

Genil, who was thinking hard, finally got a new promotion path from Ickert, and then began to plan in his heart how to get promoted through learning.

The Stormrat is not the end of the Ratman class, and there will be a Skaven warlord who will lead one side in the future. In order to become a real rat on rat, Genil can't stop.

Ickert expressed his satisfaction at Genil's willingness to learn. With a wave of his hand, he immediately decided that Aris and Yarrow, who could read and write, would temporarily take on the task of educating the Ratmen.

He discussed with the two of them, and decided to take a night shift in his spare time to teach the Ratmen to read, write and count.

The location is chosen in the living room of the castle, and anyone who is interested is allowed to listen, no matter who you are, ratman or human, as long as you are willing to learn, you can come and listen.

In order to better stimulate the enthusiasm for learning in the territory, Ickert also formulated a corresponding material reward plan, including obtaining small wooden cards by actively answering learning questions, and receiving some delicious non-staple food with the wooden cards.

As for the rats and people who are successful in their studies and have passed the Ickert assessment, he naturally promised to give priority to promotion, and the most important thing is to raise their salary.

In addition, Ickert also predicted some Ratman operations.

The exchange of knowledge in Skaven society is extremely rare, and every skaven wants to take knowledge to the grave, and would rather die than share knowledge with others!

Ickert was determined to change this situation, so he decided to crack down on the monopoly of knowledge among ratmen while holding regular exchange meetings to encourage knowledge exchange.

Those who are light will be fined with rations and taxes will be increased, while those who are serious will be reduced to slave rats.

If you don't repent, then just die!

The effect of this set of measures against the Ratmen is absolutely good. At the beginning of the night shift, he decided to force all the Stormrats and some clan rats to participate in the study, and added two Stormrats and a Stormrat leader to the establishment, and at the same time implemented The promotion system of survival of the fittest.

Let the rat people become his excellent leeks in the endless introversion.

After getting this done, Ickert can finally come up with his ultimate plan.
