Chapter XXIX: Refugees
Sean stood in the castle room, listening to the sound of the rain dripping outside, looking at the blurred world outside due to the rain, his mind was no longer on Sean Island, this was the first rain he came to this world.
For a world with a low level of technology, the weather can basically control the life and death of the low-level people, and perhaps an extremely bad weather can ruin the hard work of the people for months.
Fortunately, the rain outside will not cause damage to Sean Island, although the work of the people on Sean Island has basically stopped, but for the wheat that is cultivated, it is a timely rain.
At the same time, in the endless sea, several dilapidated ships swayed in the rough sea, and the hazy rain made the sea like a monstrous beast, ready to swallow these ships at any time.
Corey looked at the waves outside, and the regret in his heart was like a poisonous snake coiling around his heart, and it was constantly wrapping around, strangling him breathlessly.
He must have been blinded by lard before he listened to his friend's tricks and set foot on the island and venture out into the endless sea.
"Ambition, perhaps?" said Corey, shaking his head self-deprecatingly.
He was originally a famous master builder in the Initial Continent, and all kinds of castles would be appreciated by employers from the bottom of their hearts as long as they passed through his hands. Maybe it was these praises that made him lose himself, or maybe he was unwilling to live a boring and ordinary life, so he embarked on an adventure at the instigation of his friends.
At first, Corey was full of longing, after all, an island from scratch was about to be built by him, and he was about to venture into this endless sea, which he had never had in the original continent.
But the nightmare soon followed, he did not expect that the lord of the island would die in an invasion of the fish-man kraken, although the fish-man kraken was then killed by all the guards who rushed in, but the death of the lord caused the island to collapse and sink.
Under the command of the island's only silver swordsman, more than 400 lords brought a small amount of food and boarded the island's only few ships, and the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled could only be buried with the sinking of the island. The ships then drifted in this endless sea, and no one knew where their lives would end.
"My lord, another of the people has died. ”
"Throw it down. ”
Listening to the cold voice, Corey knew that another leader couldn't bear it and died, and Corey didn't have too much turmoil in his heart, because he was already numb. After a few days of floating on the sea, death is already commonplace, and it is very simple to deal with, the sea is their final destination, but they don't know when it will be his turn.
Corey looked at the numb-eyed conprietors, and the remorse in his heart came back to him, but he no longer blamed his friend who had fooled him, because his friend had already found his final destination two days earlier.
"My lord, island, island, we have been saved. ”
A large cheer came immediately, and the eyes of the people in the warehouse, including Cory, lit up, after all, no one can look down on life and death, and in a desperate situation, every good news is precious. The people who were full of warehouses ran out of the cabin, looked at the island not far ahead, hugged and wept.
......
"Your Excellency, the patrol team has come to report that there are shipwrecked ships coming to the island, the relevant refugees have been controlled in the beach area, Taylor has taken the swordsman team and the patrol team to guard, if it is not dealt with in time, I am afraid that many refugees will not survive. Outside the door, Sean's thoughts were interrupted by Duru's words.
"Refugees?" a puzzled thought arose in Sean's mind, followed by a burst of surprise. Although I don't know why there are shipwrecked ships in the endless sea, since there are shipwrecked ships, it represents the population that sends their mouths.
Sean cleaned up his mood, walked quickly to the door and opened the room, saw Du Lu bowing at the door, and hurriedly said: "Now take me over immediately, Du Lu, you arrange a place to prepare for the refugees to take shelter from the rain, and prepare enough food and hot water for the refugees to fill their stomachs, so as not to cause the death of the refugees." ”
"Yes, my lord. ”
......
"Lord Lord, these are the refugees who have been killed, all the refugees have been controlled, and they are currently starving, and they have little resistance. The only one who can pose a threat to you is the silver swordsman in front of you. Taylor pointed to a middle-aged man in cloth armor in front of him.
Nick: Terran, age 35, refugee, strength: Silver Swordsman. Favorability towards the host: 62. Note: Due to the exhaustion of many days of travel, I am currently in a state of exhaustion.
Nick saw Taylor pointing at him, and then saw Sean beside him, so he hurriedly stepped forward to make a greeting and said, "Lord Lord, my name is Nick, may the stars bless you." ”
"Lord Lord, as you can see, we are all a group of people who have suffered misfortune, we have been floating in the sea for several days, hunger and illness continue to take away our companions, the stars willing, to meet you Lord in times of despair, I hope Lord Lord You will take us in. Nick said to Sean breathlessly, as if the exhaustion of several days on a run had made him weaker than ever.
Nick then explains their situation. It's a bloody plot, when a lord was actually swimming in the sea, he was attacked and killed by the invading fish-man little sea monster, causing the island to collapse, and the lord could only drift in this endless sea.
Sean didn't reply immediately, but kept looking at Nick, and finally pointed to the dense refugees in front of him and said, "Can you replace their will, what can you give, or what can I get." ”
Nick hesitated for a moment, then finally beckoned to the refugees in front of him. After a while, a ragged man ran out of the crowd, and under Nick's nod, the man took out a token, a gourd, and a bag from his arms, the token was the black iron level island token that Sean got before leaving the island, the bag contained gold coins, and the gourd also got the information he wanted under Sean's gaze.
Nazang gourd: Treasure, a treasure that grows through Nazang rattan, contains a space of 10 meters * 10 meters * 10 meters, and the space can store liquids. Note: Simply pull open the spout to store or pour out the liquid, and there is no weight in the liquid inside.
Sean looked at the treasure in front of him with a surprised expression, he didn't expect the treasure to exist in this form. The effect of this Nazang gourd is not big, but it is not small. It's just that he didn't expect that there would be this kind of treasure, just like the kind of precept in the immortal cultivation novel in his previous life, but unfortunately he could only collect liquid, if there was no restriction on liquid, then the effect of this Nazang gourd would rise sharply.
"My lord, I hope that this island token, treasure, and gold will make us free lords of my lord's island instead of serfs. Holding the token, the gourd, and the bag, Nick knelt on the ground and said to Sean.
Sean took the island token, Nazang gourd and bag held by Nick and said: "I am very satisfied with your gift, I agreed to your request, I hope you will integrate into the initial collar as soon as possible, build Sean Island with new hope, and create legends with Sean Island." ”
Sean also did not dare to set up a new collar to accommodate these refugees, and now the loyalty of these refugees has yet to be considered, and he can only split and integrate into the initial collar in order to better monitor these refugees.
"Your Lord is merciful, may the stars bless you. ”
Seeing Nick's favorability increase to 72, Sean nodded in satisfaction.
"Why don't you just transmogrify a new island?" asked Sean, asking the question in his mind.
Nick lowered his head and said, "Lord Hui, the island token that has been transmogrified cannot continue to transmogrify the island. ”
Sean looked embarrassed, his predecessor, as the heir of a nobleman in the initial continent, basically had zero knowledge reserve in this area, so it led to this embarrassing scene now.
Sean quickly put away his embarrassed expression, helped Nick who was kneeling on the ground, walked to the refugees, and said loudly: "I believe that after these few days of wandering, everyone has suffered enough. Now I can tell you that your hard days are over, and you will be the second group of lords of Shaun Island, and I am your lord: Shaun. ”
"You don't have to worry about your identity, I am here to promise you: you are all lords of Sean Island, I have commanded that bread and hot water will appear in front of you immediately, and I hope you will be grateful for everything in front of you. ”
"Thank you, Your Lord, for your kindness. ”
Looking at the crowd of people who were crying with joy as they fell to their knees, Sean gave a few words to Duru, Joyce, and Taylor to arrange the refugees properly, and then returned to the castle with the gourd, island tokens, and gold coins, which was indeed not a good experience on a rainy day on the beach.
