"So, that lord wants me to mobilize everyone living in the slums to start a rebellion at the right time, right?" In the basement of his small building, Taran frowned at the fat snow leopard in front of him.

"It's an uprising!" The fat snow leopard is distinguishing and seems to think that this distinction is very important.

Does it make any difference?

Taran still felt that everything was lacking in reality, and the demands made by the other party made this feeling even heavier. God is pitiful, old Taran has been crisscrossing the slums of Elichar for more than 20 years, and he is even called the "King of Gray Worm Alley" by some good deeds, not because he can fight bravely, but because he is enough to judge the situation. Illiterate, he could not talk about political foresight and strategic vision, and could only manage the affairs at hand.

Now, wouldn't it be a massacre to expose the defenseless poor to the well-armed gendarmes, the garrisons, the vigilantes, and the mages who call for the wind and rain to thwart the fire?

"My master did not let you attack the main force of the enemy that was well armed, and he did not even want you to attack the important targets of Elichar. He just wants you to find a way to mobilize the citizens of Elichar to fan the flames and create a situation where the whole city is going to be in turmoil if necessary. ”

"What, what do you mean?" Old Taran thought to himself that this operation sounded very difficult, what does it have to do with me, an ordinary representative of the slum people?

The fat snow leopard was in the fat paws, and drew a map of Elichar's whole city spread on the ground.

"The granary, the armory, the military port, the Palazzo Arcana, the villas of Baiguang Mountain, where most of the official residences of the great nobles are located, as well as the gendarmerie headquarters on the west island on the outskirts of the city, the magic guide workshop on the north island, and the shipyard on the south island......"

"Wait, you want us to attack these places?"

"No, you must not go to any of these places!" Fat Snow Leopard said.

Mom almost scared the forty-year-old man from tears. Taran let out a sigh of relief.

"In contrast, the farms and wineries in the southern city have always used magic to ensure sufficient production and only supply special offerings to the nobles, which is a worthy goal. Also, in addition to the military grain depots, the location of the grain merchants' warehouses is marked, and you can also do things. ”

These warehouses are not large, but they are scattered, and they do have the potential to create a city-wide chaos.

Taran nodded slightly, then reacted and said loudly, "Wait, I didn't say I agreed to make trouble!" I do have a little bit of popularity in the slums, but it's just that we Lesser of the Lower Class hold our heads to keep warm, and we need a bit of a lively person to deal with the old men. The goddess is above, we are obviously just a group of honest and poor people, it is okay to carry bricks and wood, but now we want to fight? What to use, wooden sticks? ”

“…… I can't answer your question. Actually, I'm not in favor of getting you involved. War has always been the business of the transcendents and their followers. Unarmed ordinary people do not belong on the battlefield. However, my master said that precisely because for thousands of years wars did not belong to the defenseless people, the interests of the aftermath were never of their interest. "Fat Snow Leopard Road.

Taran was dumbfounded.

"And you're not unarmed! Aren't the Blacktail Cat Gang, the largest club in Dongcheng District, your subordinates? Several other influential groups will also sell your face. ”

"How do you know this, this, this...... No, it's all rumors! Irresponsible rumors! I'm just a foreman who organizes handymen to do their work! It's a great good citizen! ”

"Well, all the influential and popular people in Elichar have a record with the Academic Alliance, not to mention the 'King of Grey Worm Lane' like you."

"So where did this come from? The child went early, I still have five children to raise, do you understand? ”

"So here are the words that my master, Lucy Berenkast wants to convey to you. He said: Although you are the king of Gray Worm Alley, do you want the children to be in Grey Worm Alley forever? A private school run by a retired priest can indeed teach your children to read and write, but can it really change their fate? Times have changed, even if it's you, when you see this newspaper......" Lao Pa looked at the Elichar Times placed next to him, and continued: "You should also know that the future of the Federation is already in the hands of my master. ”

"Well, then I have to congratulate the master. Our great-great-grandfather's generation lived in the slums of Dongcheng District, and the story of the Merlot Rebellion was also told by the old people. In just three years, the masters of the Azure Palace and the Arcane Law Palace have changed several rounds, but how should everyone live? This ghetto is Elichar's sewer and garbage dump, despised and despised by the abandoned, neglected and forgotten. Everyone here has done their best to stay alive, and they really don't care who is sitting on it......"

Panarsis contemplated the other with a tone of unprecedented decisiveness, with a slight impudence: "But my master has said that it is because he does not sit on it. ”

Taran couldn't help but be stunned, and then listened to the other party continue: "The subsequent eastern district of Elichar will be planned and rebuilt with a new type of guiding industrial zone. ”

"What's the lead?" Taran thought to himself, you literate people, ah, uncultured cats are starting to despise themselves again, rough people who haven't read books, but this is not what I think. In addition to a far-sighted figure like myself, how many parents in the entire slum area will use their savings to send their children to school?

"Did you see that stove just now? Conductivity is this thing, used for heating, lighting, and even cooling, and there are many, many other uses. The newly planned Dongcheng District is a factory that makes this kind of thing. ”

Taran nodded suddenly, thinking that such a useful thing was indeed good, much more practical than the bells and whistles of the magician master and even the "patterns" on it made people's heads hurt.

"At that time, there will inevitably be a large-scale engineering transformation of the entire urban area, which will inevitably involve all kinds of problems, and it must be helped by a person who is very well-known and familiar with this place in Dongcheng District. So, in the new government in the future, the owner wants you to become a councillor and form a council of Elichar East City to coordinate the relationship between the project and the local people. ”

"Mom, didn't I say I can't read? Councillor, what's the matter? Commission? ”

"There will be a large group of literate people who will come to you as assistants, and if you don't feel at ease, you can let your children be secretaries." They're young, but they're all good......"

"They're still kids!" Taran said loudly: "Also, even a rough person like me who has never read a book knows that the so-called parliamentarians must be elected......"

"That's right, just let everyone in Dongcheng District vote. As for the question of the right to vote, the little master said that the day he arrived at the Palazzo d'Orfa would be the day when all the poor people would get the right to vote! ”

Taran snorted twice, still unmoved, and sneered, "So, that's the price for our lives, isn't it?" ”

"The federal government will plan and design new housing estates that will be provided free of charge to those who have relocated, and in addition, free literacy classes will be given to residents. When our pilot factories are built in the future, we will also give priority to hiring people as industrial workers and providing formal labor contracts. Yes, a contract under the watchful eye of the goddesses Waujin and Utton, protected by the grace and the law! In any case, the odd job handyman who is more deprived of people from time to time than a hungry meal, and the future of being driven away like a mouse in the dark alley, is at least worth looking forward to, right? ”

Taran was really stunned this time, a hint of ruddy flashed on his face, and his expression was complicated. After a long while, he said faintly, "So, this is ...... What did you say earlier? ”

"It's not me who said it, it's my little master." The fat snow leopard took a breath. He knew that the other party was finally moved, and he suddenly felt happy. Anyway, this is the first time she has completed the official task assigned by the little master alone, and if she can do it, it will prove that he is not just a pet, right?

Well, it's a super powerful pet that can be used to send messages!

"I ...... There are also five children. If it fails. The other man snorted.

"It's not for you to start now, without foolproof certainty, my little master will never let you go to death. Woo, he also said that this is not to make you trust his character, but please believe that he really doesn't dare to expect your combat effectiveness. ”

It's not a nice thing to say, but it's much more useful for an old fritter like Taran than a nice phrase like "Trust us." No, the other party nodded as expected.

"Also, when it comes to your children, my master has said this: Ocean University in Neosfia, Red Mountain University, Royal University in Auckland, St. Lily Woman's College, and Calgary University of Technology, which is in the process of being established, he will provide letters of recommendation for any of the above that your children want to go to, and he can also help you connect with reliable preparatory schools for free entrance without examinations."

Before the fat snow leopard finished speaking, Uncle Taran had already jumped in front of him in one step, grabbed his fat paws and shook them a few times: "Say it earlier...... Oh no, for the sake of Elichar and the future of the Federation, my old Taran gave up these 200 pounds. Of the more than 100 brothers of its black-tailed cats, I can still contact at least 2,000 brothers, all of whom are good men who can carry, fight, and do coolies, and are willing to obey the orders of adults! ”

And almost at the same time, a similar conversation was going on in the Xinghui District, which was separated from the small house in Gray Worm Lane in Dongcheng District, which was the tallest tower in the largest campus area and the tallest tower in the College District, which was called the College District by ordinary citizens.

"I've heard of Talan, although he is a member of the black (meow) gang, but he still has some limits in handling things, and he has also rescued some helpless orphans, the old and the weak. Dongcheng District, especially the slums, has been almost forgotten by the federal government, and even the patrolling vigilantes have been eliminated for almost 50 years, and such people exist, at least to maintain the balance there. Paloon Avalam, the headmaster of the Federal National Academy of Magic, one of the three remaining archmages of the Learned Alliance, and the eldest, nodded.

He's a legend standing above the clouds, but he also knows a thing or two about a little guy like Taran who struggles to survive in the mud, which is a bit of a surprise to Nicole.

"He should still be able to collect some weapons, probably a few hundred people. However, this is the case with the people of the Black (Meow) Dao, and there are nearly 10,000 gendarmerie troops in this city, a garrison of 10,000 people, and a security garrison of 20,000 after expansion, all of which are under the control of Halda Dandillane. In the eyes of Lu Xi and you, it is naturally a rabble that is about to collapse at the touch of a button, but it is not something that the thugs and porters of the Taran gang can deal with. ”

"Yes, that's why you can't hold them accountable for important goals. It's as much a responsibility for them as it is for us. ”

"That's not as good as ......"

"But, old man, what Lu Lu said, even if it is for the future, we must let them participate, even if it is just standing on the street and shouting slogans or something." The elf girl shook her head.

“…… Is that so? Hey, I'm so old, I still don't know what the hell the guys from Rainbow Rose Island are thinking, what they're going to do. The old green skin didn't understand it when he was there, and the little fox still doesn't understand it now. The old mage smiled complicatedly, with a little nostalgia, with a little relief, but also a little bit of unexplained depression.

"So, at the end of the day, you should be prepared to wait until Lu Xi's army enters the Orso Heavenly Zone, after all, Elichar, and wait until the guys from the Emergency Committee are doing everything they can to meet the attack, right?"

Nicole nodded, it wasn't hard to guess. Old man Palong can guess, and the people of the Gate Valve Sect can actually guess it.

"They will not empty Elichar of its power and let you fan the flames. What's more, until now, Dugu Fort is still like a nail in their hearts. ”

"However, if Lu Lu's army does arrive in the Orso Heavenly Region, they have no other choice, right? In any case, the power of the city will be further weakened. This gives us the opportunity to cooperate with Lu Lu to quickly liberate Elichar. This is also the task he gave us. After all, you don't want a protracted street fight in the city of Elichar, do you? ”

"However, your strength is still insufficient...... "The old mage said bluntly.

"Yes! At least that Marshal Mencius is a legendary man who has crossed the realm. The people who have crossed that door and those who have not entered are completely two levels, and even if we all go up together, the damage that will be caused is uncontrollable. So, if necessary, will you be able to counterbalance his power? ”

"Don't look at it, it's only been a few years since he crossed that realm, but I'm no match for him......" The old man sighed, and before the elf girl's expression of anticipation could completely stiffen, he added, "Moreover, I can't help you now. ”

"Ever since that messy state of emergency committee came to power, I've sent a messy inspector team to the academy, and the smell of blood is a foreign spellcaster that I can smell from 800 meters away. They divided the students into aristocratic and plebeian factions. The former is the former who has had magicians in the first three generations, and the rest are the latter, separating everyone's accommodation and classes. Civilian school buildings and dormitories are patrolled and monitored by these guys every day...... Here, the so-called commoner students are in the minority, probably less than fifty. But because of this, it is easy to control. I know they're not coming for the kids, they're coming for me. ”

"If there's any trouble, the gang will do it to the kids, right?"

"It's obvious! I am the principal here, and the parents of the children have entrusted them to me, they are the hope of their own family and even their hometown, and they have come here to study, and I have to take responsibility for their lives. The guys at the Emergency Committee knew my temperament, and as long as I didn't hurt my students, I and the teachers at the college wouldn't do anything. ”

Nivea Lin Ge bowed slightly: "However, if there is, they will definitely hurt the students...... Well, that's good! ”

"Good?" Paron looked blankly at the elf girl with a bright smile full of interest, and couldn't help but shudder.

"yes, I know what to do next. Originally, after communicating with you, Lu Lu's explanation was completed, and he asked me to decide the rest. Then it's up to you now......" The little girl clenched her fists and waved twice at the sky: "It's up to me, Miss Nivea Lin Ge, to rescue those lovely children!" ”8)
