The old man you see with your phone is highly suspicious.

"Okay, okay..."

The coachman no longer doubted that this change in his understanding of the world had completely made him forget the two unlucky little mages from before, replacing them entirely with the current Xue Law and the young general.

He was also complaining that he hadn't expected the two mages to sit so powerfully; just by looking at their posture, one could tell how incredibly strong they were.

The carriage continued forward. In fact, the two were quite nervous during this short time, with the young general ready to pull Xue Dinglu away by spatial jump at any moment.

Although the two believed that they could achieve perfect reality modification through the administrator backdoor of the Avengers and Xue's Law modifier, they had to be extremely careful because their enemy was someone who completely controlled the world's power.

However, there was no reaction, no spatial blockade, no spying from the world's authority, and no anomalies.

The two breathed a slight sigh of relief, and Xue Dinglu made an OK gesture.

Normally, the two of them would have been captured by the world's authority upon their teleportation, but the angel's administrator status prevented the firewall from being triggered.

Back in the capital, the two handed the money to the coachman. Looking at the capital, which seemed grand but was actually desolate, they both felt something was amiss.

The most prosperous capital city in the entire theocracy appears to have half of its buildings empty, looking utterly desolate. What about the other places?

Not far from the entrance of the Divine Capital Magic Academy, as the two passed by, they saw a girl kneeling on the ground, with words written in the language of that world on a wooden board beside her.

"Selling my reproductive ability for ten years, which is currently held by a female student at a magic academy. She will give birth to more than eight children within ten years. The price is around 200 gold coins. Details can be discussed."

Young general: "..."

Xue's Law: "..."

Chapter 265 Les Misérables

The two who had just arrived in the Kingdom of God fell silent. They looked at each other, their pupils filled with question marks.

Although the two had prepared in advance, they still felt their worldviews were shattered when they faced it head-on. This was the most central and luxurious magic university in the theocracy, and right near the school gate, a female mage was openly selling her reproductive rights.

In other words, can you imagine people openly selling their bodies outside Harvard and MIT?

Prices are clearly marked, and there is no deception of the young or old.

Unexpectedly, both of their thoughts went blank for a while, and then they stopped moving forward.

They sized up the female mage; she was petite and adorable. In any other world, with such an appearance, plus being a top student at the Divine Capital Magic Academy and a prospective mage, she would undoubtedly be adored by countless admirers.

But here she puts herself up for sale, right at the school gate, offering 200 gold coins for having 8 children in 10 years.

Hmm, it looks like we can still negotiate the price.

Seeing the two hesitant figures, the female mage seemed intrigued. Noticing they were also dressed in mage robes, she waved and said, "Would you like to take a look, seniors? Let's discuss the price? But there's an extra charge if two people come together."

Xue's Law: "..."

Young general: "..."

For no apparent reason, Xue's Law felt a physiological aversion and anger. Seeing this situation made him feel like he was "tired, let's destroy it, hurry up," and he wanted to make the world feel pain, understand pain, and enjoy pain. He had an impulse to create something out of this world on the spot.

But to the people of this world, this seemed to be commonplace. Occasionally, passersby would see this scene and not even show any surprise, just like any other stall, without revealing any expression.

Xue Luding looked at the young man, and then he was stunned because he found that the young man was even angrier than him.

"Brother, how about we teleport away, and then I'll unleash a Star Destroyer Cannon to wipe out this world?" the young general said using magical telepathy.

Xue's Law: "..."

Bro, you seem to be going a bit too far.

Xue Luding, who was initially furious, suddenly cleared his head and instead comforted the young general: "Don't be impulsive, let's assess the situation. Actually, based on our previous intelligence, this kind of thing is understandable..."

Xue Dinglu closed his eyes.

There are no farmers or workers in this world.

Yes, after those mind flayers take over this world, there will be no more farmers and workers. All means of production and tools will be controlled by the "Divine Pavilion Organization" under the divine realm.

These divine organizations call themselves "divine beings," act as a bridge between the human and divine realms, and occupy all fields, mountains, rivers, and cities.

In this world, ordinary people are not allowed to farm, hunt, or engage in any productive work.

If that's the case, how are people supposed to survive in this world?

The answer is, have children.

By having children and continuously having more children, and by giving the excess children to the gods, they can obtain a continuous stream of wealth.

Because all wealth, food, and even resources are controlled by the gods, this is a common phenomenon in this world.

Here, children can be put on a price tag, and similarly, the right to breed can also be put on a price tag.

“Let’s go ask them,” Xue Dinglu said.

To everyone's surprise, the young man stopped him, saying, "Brother, it's dirty, don't touch it. If you really feel oppressed, many of my friends' and teachers' daughters can become part of your harem. Don't underestimate me. If I send you your requirements, I can probably assemble a harem of several hundred people for you in just a few days."

Xue's Law: "..."

Dude, what are you thinking? Do I look like that kind of person?

“Our previous intelligence was merely a hazy glimpse into the memories of the angels. This is actually a great opportunity for us to gain some common knowledge about this world,” Xue Dinglu said, reaching out and pulling out a large bag of this world's gold coins.

For him, as long as he knows the design of the world's gold coins, he can quickly create a perfect one-to-one replica, just like a 3D printer.

The two mages who were knocked unconscious earlier were rich guys with a lot of gold coins. Xue Lude took the opportunity to copy these gold coins thousands of times, and could easily copy thousands or tens of thousands of times depending on the situation.

At the time, the two even considered launching a financial war, a plan to cripple the original economy by replicating gold coins, but they realized that doing so wouldn't actually help their plans much.

So, despite their initial strong resistance, the two of them went to inquire together with dark expressions.

“Would you be interested in going to the nearest hotel to chat? We can discuss the specific price,” Xue Dinglu said.

The female mage's eyes lit up, and she immediately said, "Sure, you can pay for the nearest inn, senior. You can inspect the goods for free first, and then we can discuss the price later."

The two men's faces darkened further. The sunlight shone brightly on the ground, but their faces were covered with dense, line-like shadows.

The girl, completely unsuspecting, followed the two into a nearby inn, where the young man had set up a magical barrier in the room.

The girl was completely at ease, treating the hotel like home. She immediately sprawled out on the bed and asked, "When do you guys start? Should we take a shower?"

Without saying a word, Xue Dinglu flicked a gold coin at her head, making her cover her head and cry out "Ouch!" But upon seeing that it was a gold coin, she swallowed back all the complaints she was about to make and immediately excitedly put the gold coin into her pocket.

"I want to ask you some questions. If you answer truthfully, we can consider adding more money," Xue Dinglu said directly, while the young general once again deployed an even stronger magical barrier, sealing off the area completely.

"Alright, senior, go ahead and ask."

Is your situation common throughout the school?

When Xue asked the question, the child paused for a moment, then looked at the two of them with strange expressions. After a long while, he excitedly realized something.

Oh, I see. There was a mistake. The two of them are probably juniors, not seniors, and they just arrived at the school. They seem to be extraordinary people, or perhaps they have the blood of extraordinary people and are young masters who know nothing of the hardships of the world.

Hey, I've hooked a sucker!

She secretly rubbed her hands together, then automatically placed Xue Dinglu and the other man into her imagined identities, replying, "Young masters of the gods, you may not know, but for us commoner magicians, this isn't exactly a common phenomenon, it's just..."

She smiled, revealing her little tiger teeth: "Everyone has done it!"

Xue Dinglu and the young general were momentarily speechless. This was still the most noble, richest, and most prosperous capital city in the entire world, and the lofty magic academy within it.

And she was also a magician.

What about the ordinary people in the capital city outside of the magic academy?

What about people in other, more remote places outside of the capital?

They couldn't even imagine it.

"Young masters, the male-to-female ratio among us commoner magicians is 1 to 100." She continued, stating a shocking ratio. "My classmates have all had quite a few children. It's thanks to this subsidy that they can maintain their high-class magician life at school. Otherwise, who would pay our exorbitant tuition fees?"

"Besides, we're not like the degenerated people of the lowest class. We're healthy and clean. Many of us don't sell ourselves; it's because we've entered into long-term contracts with some noble family." She shrugged.

"I was just unlucky and couldn't reach a long-term contract with a noble family because I was malnourished as a child. If it weren't for my talent as a magician, I probably would have been sent to the gods by my family when I was young."

She patted her chest, making a loud thud.

Xue and the other man fell into an even deeper silence.

"But don't underestimate me just because I don't have a talent for this. I'm confident that my fertility will improve after I have children. Also, don't worry about my reproductive ability. My mother had 45 children, so I have plenty of talent." She smiled as she promoted her advantages.

They have absolutely no sense of propriety, righteousness, or shame.

"What is a degenerate human?" Xue Law didn't care about the rambling nonsense in her words, or the 404 error message she used that would be posted on Earth.

But for the people of this world, this seems to be the norm.

"Sigh, young master, degenerate people, you know, those lowly commoners who have started to grow downy hair, like they've degenerated into half-beasts." The girl seemed even more puzzled.

Are these two young masters nobles who have never left the castle in their lives? How come they don't even know about degenerate humans?

But she instantly realized that she might have really hooked a big spender. These two young masters might be pure-blooded gods. Judging from the magic arrays they casually set up and their attitude of not treating gold coins as money, they were probably nobles among pure-blooded gods.

Wow! Can I become a long-term 'wife' in this god's household to achieve upward social mobility?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but hum softly. She hurriedly started talking about things that the young masters were interested in, her face full of flattery: "Young masters, degenerate people are the lowly commoners who have only been able to reproduce for generations and then degenerate into what they are now."

"It is said that in the slums, the most severely degenerated people are not much different from the monsters in the Monster Forest. We call them 'half-orcs'."

"If someone truly degenerates to the level of a half-orc, they will completely lose their right to reproduce and be hunted down. Of course, even in the family of a degenerated person, it is possible for their children to revert to their ancestral form and become pure-blooded humans."

"By the way, from what I understand, the subsidy for handing over a degenerated human child is only one-third of that for a normal human child, while the subsidy for handing over a child with magic aptitude is 1.5 times that of a normal human child."

She chattered on and on, providing Xue and the other with the information she knew about the lower classes. It was clear that she was a girl who had climbed up from the bottom, otherwise she wouldn't have been so knowledgeable about the lower classes.

It's even possible that her parents were degenerates, and that she only managed to mutate and gain magician aptitude through a combination of reversion to her ancestral form and she was able to survive.

However, she always referred to the lower classes as "the lowest of the low."

Chapter 266 Local Specialties: A Seven-Day Genesis - There's Always One That Suits You

"Oh, I'm so sorry, the young masters probably don't know the specific subsidy system," she said immediately.

“If an ordinary human child hands over one, they will receive one gold coin every month for the next five years. A degenerated person will receive one gold coin every three months, while a child who hands over a magician's child will receive one gold coin and 50 silver coins every month,” she said. “One gold coin is enough for a family to live on for more than a month.”

"So you see, my price is actually very profitable. I guarantee you'll have at least eight children in ten years. If you hand them all over, you'll have at least 360 gold coins after fifteen years. If you're lucky enough to have a few children with magic talent, you'll receive even more subsidies." She started doing math for Xue Dinglu and the young general, counting on her fingers.

She wasn't wrong; a year in this world is about nine months long.

"I can also sign long-term employment contracts. I can become the young masters' long-term toy and breeding mother. The price is negotiable. Don't let my thin appearance fool you, I'm in great shape, and I guarantee there won't be any problems." She started promoting herself again.

It felt like I'd be missing out if I didn't promote myself today.
