Chapter 116: Destruction and Rebirth
The alternation of autumn and winter is gradually coming.
In some places, the temperature is gradually approaching freezing, but the climate in the south is still relatively warm, and Ryan glanced at the homeless man curled up in the corner, and the thin linen clothes made him feel a little blue. Ryan didn't pay much sympathy to these people, for he had already seen a lot of displaced people on the way to the South Coast, and only in the richest South would there be fewer such displaced people, because they could go to the city of Mordor and rely on labor in exchange for food.
Ryan couldn't help but quicken his pace, with the arrival of the cold winter, the half-elves of Fallen Leaf City should have a harder time than these people.
By the time he traveled to Mordor to try to visit the Lord, people had already died of hunger and cold in Fallen Leaves, and the phenomenon would probably get worse when winter came.
"I didn't see the Excellency, though."
Thinking of the harvest of this trip, Ryan couldn't help but feel a fire in his heart, and muttered, "But I finally got a good news." When you go back, you can organize your staff to prepare for the migration. ”
It wasn't easy to meet Sauron, as the king of the three seas and the protector of the half-elves, he had too many important things to deal with.
Still, Ryan got what he wanted, and the Lord was willing to accept them half-elves, but they needed to get closer to the coast on their own, and then a warship would take them to the city of Mordor. These people will be placed in the newly established towns near the city of Mordor, and the treatment will certainly not be as good as the first batch of migrated half-elves, but for Ryan, as long as the people do not die of hunger and cold.
Half-elves have inherited the industriousness of humans, and they will use their hands to create wealth.
Humans are the most obsessed race with farming, so the total population of humans is completely crushed by other races, and the half-elves have inherited this advantage, and they also attach great importance to farming.
Three days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Ryan finally returned to Fallen Leaf City, and there was an unknown amount of mass grave outside the city gates, as the climate became colder and colder. The scarcity of material began to bring down the first vulnerable people. For those who are sick, infirm, and young, the atmosphere in the city becomes more and more silent, as if a storm is brewing, and in order to prevent the appearance of the plague, the town hall takes more measures. The aura of darkness spreads, and many half-elf refugees with numb expressions can be seen on the streets, evil smells of despair here, and evil things happen one after another in the dark corners.
"Ryan!"
A young guard saw Ryan. As if he had seen a savior, he excitedly said, "Oh my God! You're finally back! ”
"Do you know what's going on in the city lately!?"
"Devil! ……”
"It's a devilish act! ……”
The young guard recounted a heinous crime, and though the culprit had been tried, something hung over the city, as if waiting for its destruction. Ryan's face was solemn, and what he had heard was not just an evil crime, but something that could really be a devil behind it.
The devil has finally set his sights on this.
Because of the death of Deciduous City, because of the sins of Deciduous City, because of the decay of the Council of Nobles. Because of the desperation of the lower classes of civilians.
These are the nourishments that the devil craves most!
Despair destroys everything, and despair gives them a chance, and the devil is watching from the dark corners, ready to stir hearts and minds to the final destruction of the city.
Ryan's presence gives the lifeless city a lease of life.
Because he represents hope at this moment. A hope from the city of Mordo, from the Lord! People with numb expressions gathered around him, and their eyes showed a look of longing, as if their hearts were so eager to hear the exciting news!
An old man dressed as a businessman appears. He looked at him with an inquiring gaze.
Ryan nodded slightly, a smile on his face.
Cheers!
After receiving the news of Ryan's affirmation, the people around couldn't help but burst into cheers. The breath of despair faded, and the numb expressions became vivid, as if in an instant these people were full of vitality and hope in their hearts was restored.
The hungry refugees stood up.
They gathered around Ryan, and although their stomachs were still empty, there was a burst of power in their increasingly thin bodies.
These people believed that as long as they survived this time, they would be able to say goodbye to their misery and have a new life when they reached the city of Modo.
They are not lazy.
It's not their fault that causes all this, they're just innocent poor people who don't have the power.
Vitality and vitality spread in Fallen Leaf City.
The truly cold winter has not yet arrived, and they still have a chance and a time.
But!
At this moment, suddenly a team of law enforcement teams with cold expressions appeared, and they violently dispersed the nearby crowd, and even smashed some poor women and children to the ground. The men directly surrounded Ryan, and then a middle-aged man with an indifferent expression appeared, dressed as an aristocratic person, holding a sealed dossier in his hand, and two half-elf wizards next to him. The middle-aged man looked at Ryan with a cold disgusted gaze, raised the file in his hand, and said in a deep voice, "This is the council's arrest warrant!" ”
"Ryan."
"Lay down your arms! You've been arrested for collaborating with the enemy. ”
Collaboration?
A hint of anger appeared on Ryan's face, and this irrepressible anger even made him want to kill the man in front of him.
There were commotions all around, and the dispersed people seemed to hear the voice of a middle-aged man, and some even angrily rushed into the law enforcement team that surrounded him, but these poor low-class civilians had no strength at all, and they were easily knocked to the top, and streams of blood appeared, and some even fell down and never got up again.
Ryan's eyes were red at the sight, and anger made him clench his fists, and veins appeared in his arms.
Ultimately.
He slowly threw away his weapon, and waved his hand to stop his companions who were pressing their hands on the hilt of their swords and wanted to fight, it was very unwise to confront the Council of Nobles now, although he had cultivated his own team in Fallen Leaf City, it was impossible to fight against the traditional forces of these rulers. The middle-aged man in front of him showed a look of satisfaction and contempt, and even a faint hint of disappointment, because the ideal outcome was that Ryan would confront the law enforcement team, and then force all his accomplices out, and finally kill them all.
This saves them a lot of trouble.
The upper echelons of the noble council kept an eye on these people, and their rule could not withstand another wavering.
"Take him!"
The middle-aged man coldly ordered, and the law enforcement team next to him smashed his fist on Ryan's stomach, then locked his arm as he bent over, and then directly shackled him to his body.
What awaits him will be a trial, as he is one of the leaders of the underground forces of Fallen Leaf City!
Deciduous City hasn't fallen yet.
The councils of the nobility were convinced that if they survived this winter, they would have a chance to survive this time, and that a little death and sacrifice was necessary. Although the lower classes of the civilians in Fallen Leaf City have been miserable, the noble council still maintains the support of the army, and as long as there is an army, there is still a chance to turn the tables, and they firmly believe that there will be a chance to breathe through the winter. However, Ryan's actions undoubtedly pushed them to the brink of destruction, and what awaited this man would be the judgment of death, as he fought against the ruling order that had lasted for thousands of years in Fallen Leaf City.
If he succeeds, the rule of Fallen Leaf City will truly end.
The prestige of the Council of Nobles could no longer withstand the second blow, and they were terrified, frightened, desperate, mad, and even began to accept the help of some dark forces.
Despair is always easy to fall into darkness!
The atmosphere of riot is spreading further, and a riot clash seems imminent, as the law enforcement team robs them of hope, which is tantamount to pushing them to the brink of madness.
Negative emotions are nourishing the forces of evil, and desperate people seem intent on storming the law enforcement team again.
Ryan put a stop to this.
He ended it all in just two words, giving hope to the people who were becoming desperate and giving up the plan to break the net for the time being.
- "Pray! ”
Ryan said those two words, and then many fell silent.
Then, he strotted to let the law enforcement team take him away, knowing that the Council of Nobles could no longer stop this.
The power of prayer will bring their faith and supplication to His Excellency!
One person's prayers may not tell that Excellency everything that is happening here, but the prayers of thousands of people will eventually convey everything to His Excellency.
He will never sit idly by and ignore all this!
For He is the master of the half-elf, the protector of the half-elf, the deity served by the half-elf!
Deciduous Leaf City is shrouded in a dark force with evil purposes, nourishing sin with despair, and then quietly waiting for the destruction of the city, and finally sharing a feast in the destruction.
This is the fruit of sin!
Whether it is for the devil, the devil, or the evil gods, this evil feast can bring them great satisfaction.
Ryan doesn't know what his fate will be.
He could only pin all his hopes on the city of Mordor, on the great Excellency, because only he could save the city of Fallen Leaves, and only he could save the half-elves here.
Chaos is the nourishment that breeds evil, and the evil forces that roam the material plane have finally set their sights on Deciduous City.
Winter.
The arrival of winter will be an opportunity for hunger and death to bloom in the most beautiful and cruel flowers of sin. (To be continued......)
