Chapter Seventy-Eight: A Quiet Change of Fate (5)

"Exile?" Qi Tianci smiled gloomily and repeated what Ethan said, looking at Ethan who was kneeling on the ground with a complicated expression. "You're saying they're exiles? No, no, they've been part of Magellan's kingdom for a long time. “

Ethan was overjoyed, thinking that Qi Tianci did not intend to pursue the sins committed by these exiles. Just as Ethan was about to thank Qi Tianci, Qi Tianci immediately changed his tone and said sharply: "But these new members of Magellan, who were accepted by me and Sters not long ago and thought they had been accommodated in our camp, killed so many of our compatriots tonight! Do you think I will just let them go?"

Ethan knew that no matter what, he couldn't escape this catastrophe. Doing nothing now will only make Qi Tianci's anger grow stronger and stronger, so it is better to close your eyes and wait for the final fate to come.

Since the orc camp was near the camp, as the matter became more and more noisy, basically all the armed forces of the camp had gathered on this square. However, the orcs temporarily took on the duty of guarding the camp, and the War Sword Saint and the leader of the wolf cavalry also came to this square to watch the progress of the incident. Now, for these exiles who have committed grave sins, any resistance is futile. Many of the exiled civilians also came to the square spontaneously and stood with the exiles who had committed their sins. But he was stopped by Qi Tianci's angry shout. "Those who haven't done anything, get out!"

Hearing Qi Tianci's fierce roar, those exile civilians who wanted to live and die together immediately withdrew from the square. Keep your head down and be silent.

Qi Tianci stood up from the corpse in the chair, looked at the new Magellan members gathered in the square, and sneered: "Don't worry, since you are accepted by us, then you are all a member of my Magellan Kingdom no matter what." This is true even when mistakes are made. “

The new members of Magellan who were waiting for punishment had not had time to relax, and were about to thank Qi Tianci for not pursuing it, but Qi Tianci sneered: "But do you think that I will not investigate your mistakes after you have committed such a thing?

Prior to this, Magellan's royal guard was replenished to a certain extent, and now its number has reached seventy or eighty people. Except for a few members who had been left behind to carry out the necessary garrison, there were almost fifty guards who came to the square. Although the strength of each Guards is uneven at present, it is believed that with the further increase of training. All the Guards will end up above the same level. After Qi Tianci shouted, these fifty guards consciously stood up. Qi Tianci looked at these guards composed of new and old members, Qi Tianci nodded reluctantly, and ordered: "From now on, you will come to take the position of gendarme." Until this mission is lifted!"

Before these Guards soldiers who had temporarily made cameo appearances in the gendarmes came back to their senses, Qi Tianci continued to order: "Give you two days to find out which of these 'new members' of Magellan standing in this square were involved in the evil deeds just now. Death for all these sinners!"

"Execution?" As soon as Qi Tianci's words fell, both the new members of Magellan and the remnants of Magellan were deeply shocked. However, the difference is that these new members of the Magellan kingdom finally know that they are not the privileged people in this camp, and the reason why Qi Tianci and Sterns provide them with such a good place to live is not because they need them, and the new members of Magellan are only treated very ordinarily. They make mistakes, they kill people, and they will be punished. Immediately, some of the exiles who had participated in the previous evil deeds fell to their knees with weak legs. For them, their fate is over. Looking at the man in front of them, they didn't dare to resist.

But there are still those who are not afraid of death, although now all the weapons carried by the new Magellan members have been confiscated. But some unarmed villains still had the courage to shout at their companions who had committed the same crimes as themselves: "I'm afraid of a fart, no matter what, it's a death, it's better to kill it!"

As he roared, his companions gathered up the courage to attack the people next to him. Whether they came from the Vault Dweller's Hill like them, or just an ordinary citizen of Magellan's remnants who watched them be punished, anyone was targeted. But after all, they no longer had weapons in their hands, and under Qi Tianci's cold attention, this small-scale riot was quickly quelled by Magellan's royal guards.

After all the rebellious exiles were exterminated in the square, Qi Tianci looked coldly at the other exiles who did not participate in this uprising, and then looked at Anne and Ethan who were kneeling on the ground, and reluctantly smiled: "Annie, the exiles under your command are really not afraid of death." Do you have any grievances when I punish them like this?"

"No, no!" Anne repeated on her knees.

Then Qi Tianci looked at Ethan, who was also kneeling on the ground: "What about you?"

Ethan also hurriedly shook his head, trembling and replied: "No, these people have committed crimes, and they are innocent of death!"

Qi Tianci was slightly satisfied and smiled. Looking at the exiles who did not participate in the riot just now but also committed the same crime, he said coldly: "Originally, you all deserved to die, but in the end you chose a good path. Therefore, I will not kill you. But, from now on, you will be completely expelled from the camp, and you will never be allowed to set foot in the camp again, and if we find you, you will all die!

The exiles who had been granted amnesty finally breathed a sigh of relief. For them, as long as they can save their lives, nothing matters, and they are very glad that they didn't fight to the death just now. In their eyes, being branded was not worth mentioning, and although they could no longer set foot in the camp, once they returned to the Vault Dweller's Hill, they would be as free as if they had descended into the sea. Originally, the reason why they committed such a thing was just because they couldn't stand the rules of the camp and wanted to get a lot of money in the camp and then leave here quietly. Now, although they didn't get any benefits, at least they saved their lives and managed to get out. Therefore, they did not put up any resistance, and after the soldiers of the Guards put a brand similar to a six-pointed star on their foreheads, although it hurt a little, they were still grateful to Qi Tianci. However, neither Qi Tianci nor these branded exiles thought that they would meet again at an important moment in the future, and at that time, these branded clans who were still grateful for Qi Tianci's life-sparing grace repaid Qi Tianci at the most critical moment and once again changed the fate of this continent. Of course, that's all for later.

After all the nearly sixty exiles who had been expelled were branded with six-pointed stars, the Branded Clan, who were grateful to Qi Tianci, immediately left the camp, for fear that Qi Tianci would regret it temporarily. After waiting for them all to leave, Qi Tianci looked at all the new Magellan members present, sighed, and turned to leave. Only Ethan and Anne were left on their knees, still shivering.

In the aftermath of this chaos, Qi Tianci agreed to the requests of the exiles who wanted to leave the place, in addition to killing some of the Evil Immortals and expelling the Branded Clan. All the weapons that were collected were then destroyed. Qi Tianci didn't know if these weapons would be stained with the blood of his compatriots in the future, so he simply disposed of them all. At this point, the riot that took place during the night was completely over. After such a riot, Qi Tianci and Sters' plan to completely merge the humans and exiles of the two races, who are both human beings but are actually different, has been temporarily aborted. The wariness of the Magellan immigrants against these new recruits has risen to an unprecedented level. Even the two elite units that best represented the camp, the Magellan Guards and the Magellan Knights of the Faith, were divided into two factions, fighting openly and secretly. And Qi Tianci's idea of selecting the best from among these exiles to organize a new army had to be temporarily dispelled.

This two-sided rivalry lasted all winter. Throughout the harsh winter of more than 200 days, the two sides have been incompatible, but neither Qi Tianci nor Sterls can do anything about it. They cannot take sides over the other. This also made Qi Tianci's idea of improving the military strength of the camp helplessly delayed. After waiting for a full year after the incident, Qi Tianci completely fused these two forces again, and missed the largest counterattack of the Continental Alliance against the Apostles after the harsh winter, which indirectly led to the defeat of the Continental Alliance. Of course, that's all for later. But no matter what, the fate of the mainland has been inadvertently changed.

Waiting for Qi Tianci to finish everything, he realized that Ai Ze, who had been following him before, was long gone. However, Qi Tianci didn't have the heart to take care of Ai Ze at all now. He knew that his treatment of these exiles was too light, and that it was destined to set the stage for the future between the two sides. And, in fact, he was right. But Qi Tianci had to do this, if he didn't do it, the two sides would not be as simple as fighting openly and secretly, but would break out into a large-scale conflict. The current camp was built by all the hard work, and many people died for it. So no matter what, Qi Tianci will not allow infighting in the camp. And now it's the best he can do.

After the matter was over, Qi Tianci realized that when dealing with this matter, neither Stels, Hill, McGregor, nor Azer who was with him before appeared. Instead, they gathered together and waited for Qi Tianci to return. When he returned to his residence, he found that the most important people in the camp had gathered in his house.

It was already very cold, but with McGregory there, the people in the house weren't worried about the cold. After opening the door, Qi Tianci moved a chair and sat down with a wry smile.

"Needless to say, Azer has told us everything. Qi Tianci was about to open his mouth, and McGregor, who was the most prestigious, smiled: "I know your heart is very uncomfortable right now, but this is the first step you must take." ”

Qi Tianci was a little puzzled: "What do you mean?"

"You and Sylveron have always been the hope of Magellan's kingdom, even now. But now that Viren's fate is uncertain, the only people who can lead the camp forward are you and Ciel. However, Hill is not very good at management, so you are the only hope for the kingdom of Magellan. ”

"The only hope?" Qi Tianci was a little surprised, isn't there still Uncle Si now?"

Aize shook his head with a wry smile: "I told Mr. Steles everything. “

"I'll it!" Qi Tianci didn't know what to say now. However, Stelts just smiled: "Thank you for changing my fate." But in a way, I'm really old enough to retire. I'm not too old, but what I want to do now is to spend my days in the camp. When I can, I'll do my best to help you. I've always believed that you can do it alone, and now's the time. ”

Qi Tianci was a little sluggish, and asked in a wooden voice: "Uncle Si, what are you... “

"It's not that I feel that way, it's us. The camp can only be better developed in your hands. Manage this camp like you would manage the Xiangyun Society, we believe in you. ”

Qi Tianci smiled a little embarrassedly, now except for himself, the other original members of Xiangyun Club have disappeared. Realizing this, Stearns smiled awkwardly as well, but his meaning was clear, that is, he was too old to manage the camp.

Only then did Qi Tianci understand that the reason why they were all here was to let Qi Tianci deal with this matter alone. And although there are some flaws in the end, it is still handled quite well. This is also the reason why everyone present supports Qi Tianci. Qi Tianci did not choose to refuse, he knew how heavy the burden was on his shoulders, but he had to bear it.
