Chapter 230: The Absolute Authority of the Lords (1/4)
Link appeared on a giant tiger with a height of more than 4 meters, which was really a bit terrifying, and the ordinary people on the road were discouraged, some were timid, and when they retreated, they cried. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Luckily, Doras was very gentle, walking all the way, behaving in a proper manner, and shaking his head honestly, so the crowd slowly calmed down their fears.
All sorts of voices rang out.
"Oh my God, such a big tiger! It can definitely swallow a cow in one bite. ”
"Is sitting on the back of a tiger a lord?"
"Oh my God, you see, he's surrounded by flames, it's terrifying!"
"He's not going to expel us, is he?"
Link listened to the words of these ordinary people, and his eyes were also looking left and right.
He found that many of the people on the road, with shabby clothes and vegetable-colored faces, were dragging their families, not like the freedmen of Gwent Forest, who had come to look for work, but like their families fleeing.
Is it a refugee from the North? Isn't it, doesn't the North always win wars? Even if there is a stalemate recently, it is a stalemate in the Black Forest, how can there be refugees? And the clothes these people wear are not like those from the north. Link was a little puzzled.
Besides, even if there were refugees in the north, it was the Gwent Forest to the north that appeared first, so why did they come to his field wilderness first?
At this time, Gridan arrived, and he was now the Scout Leader of the Territory, responsible for finding out all the news related to the Territory.
Link flipped off the tiger's back, walked over and asked, "What's going on?" Where did they come from? ”
Gridan hurriedly said, "My lord, I was about to report this to you. ”
"You say." Link listened as he walked into the territory.
Gridan followed him and said, "These refugees are all from the kingdom of Delonga in the south, and the kingdom of Delonga and the kingdom of Nanyue in the west are at war. As a result, Delonga suffered a defeat and lost hundreds of miles of land, and these people ran out of the occupied land. ”
The two countries of the South at war? Link's heart tightened, and he said secretly, "It's coming! ’
In the previous life game, during this time period, because the Norton Kingdom was at war with the dark elves, it was unable to look south, and the pressure on the southern countries dropped sharply.
The situation in this life is better, but the general trend is about the same, and I am afraid that history will repeat itself.
With a long sigh in his heart, Link remembered Ilindore's words, "The sun is about to set." ’
He was powerless to take care of the affairs of the south, but he was still puzzled in his heart: "Even if you want to run, it is to run to the interior of the Delonga Kingdom, why did you come to us?" ”
His territory is a barren wilderness known all over the world, and he came to eat the soil. Moreover, the kingdom of Delonga is probably not happy that the people of his kingdom have sneaked away to the kingdom of Norton, right?
Gridan had already inquired clearly, and he smiled, "This should have something to do with White." White had been buying slaves in the South, and he had spread the news that our territory was very short of people, and that the territory was very rich, and that the news of the discovery of large clay mines had spread to the whole South. For these refugees, since they are fleeing from the war, they are not fleeing, and a large part of them are smuggling across the Heishui River and coming all the way to us. ”
The territory is indeed very short of people, so in Gridan's opinion, it is a great thing that these refugees can come.
Link also thinks that this is a good thing, but as a lord, there are many things to consider, and you must also look at things from the perspective of development, which is good now, and if you don't get one right, it will become a big bad thing in the future.
He looked around at the refugees on both sides of the road, silent, thinking.
These refugees also knew that Link was the magician lord of the land, and they all bowed their heads and bowed their bodies humbly, and when Link looked over, they all rubbed their hands uneasily, waiting for their fate.
The children around them were basically very thin, with dirty little faces, wearing rag clothes, and their little hands were tightly holding the corners of their parents' clothes, they were scared and curious, and occasionally glanced at Link with timid eyes, and then quickly turned away, like a little rabbit.
Seeing that Link had not spoken, Gridan also felt a pressure, although he had been a follower of Link for a short time, Link's prestige was getting higher and higher, and the invisible majesty on his body was getting stronger and stronger, so strong that he didn't even dare to have the slightest casualness when the people around him stood beside him.
Suddenly, Link moved.
He raised his hand and pointed to a scruffyly dressed young man not far away, and said to the two soldiers beside him, "Catch him and bring him here!" ”
"My lord, this is ......" Gridan was a little puzzled.
Link interrupted him with a raised hand, motioning for the soldiers to carry out his orders.
Now, the mercenary regiment has been transformed into a guard of the wilderness, and Link, as the rightful lord and master of magic, has absolute authority over the soldiers. Without hesitation, the two soldiers rushed out and pressed in front of the young man to seize him.
The young man panicked, turned and ran, but where was it useful, another soldier next to him who was maintaining order was very close to him, and he rushed forward with an arrow and kicked the man to the ground.
Two strong soldiers rushed over like wolves, escorted the young man to Link, and then kicked the young man on his knees, forcing him to kneel on the ground.
The atmosphere of the scene was extremely depressing, the refugees were silent, and the baby in swaddling clothes seemed to feel the atmosphere, crying 'wow', but only half of it, and the second half of the voice was covered by his mother.
Link didn't say why, took out his wand, two meters away, and cast the mage's hand, lifting the clothes on the young man's chest, revealing his chest. The muscles in his chest are very strong and tight, which is not a muscle that a refugee can have, and in the place of the heart, there is a dark blue blood-dripping dagger tattooed.
The young man's face suddenly changed greatly, the muscles of his whole body tensed, and a faint brilliance of battle appeared, and a dagger appeared in his hand at some point, and with a kick on his hind legs, the whole person rushed towards Link, and he was actually going to commit murder!
This change was so fast that there was a burst of exclamation from the audience, and Gridan on the side had his eyelids jumping, drew his sword, and was about to rush forward to block it, but he was an archer, and his skills were inferior to this assassin, so he had no time to stop it.
At this moment, there was a faint white light on Link's body, a level 4 edelweiss, and after the white light, the air in front of him suddenly blurred, and a radial air ripple appeared, vector resisting the force field.
'Bang~' The assassin just rushed forward, his body was unbalanced, he was knocked back a few steps at once, and then he heard a 'whirring' sound, and a terrifying flame giant hand appeared in the air out of thin air, grabbing the assassin at once, and then the fire flashed, and the assassin let out a terrible scream.
A second later, Link let go of the giant hand, and he kept it, so the assassin was not dead, and the burns on his body were not serious, but the battle qi had been completely exhausted.
He fell to the ground, gasping for air, looking at Link with fear in his eyes.
The surrounding refugees watched this scene, swallowing their saliva and looking at Link with an extremely frightened gaze, and some of the children had already begun to cry.
With that flash of lightning just now, the power of this mage lord has deeply engraved in everyone's hearts, such as 'invincible', 'as powerful as a demon god', and 'terrifying'.
This is what Link wanted, and he blessed himself with a macro sound spell, then took a few steps forward and asked the young man in a voice that everyone could hear, "The spy of the Syndicate?" ”
The young man's face turned pale, but he didn't say a word, he acquiesced.
The surrounding refugees were also stunned, no wonder the lord suddenly attacked, it turned out to be a notorious syndicate thief, so thinking about it, the fear in everyone's hearts was reduced a lot.
Link observed the reaction of the refugees, and was very satisfied with the scene, if he was shocked, it was not to make people think that he was brutal, he turned to the soldiers on the side and said, "Drag him out, hang him on the torture rack at the north gate!" ”
The soldier immediately complied, and in a short time there was a short scream from the north gate of the Scorched Earth Ridge, and the syndicate spy had died.
During the whole process, Scorched Earth Ridge was silent.
Link's series of actions left a deep impression on the refugees, in their eyes, this magician lord has a torch in his eyes, can do terrible magic, and his methods are also very decisive, he will kill when he says, and he is extremely powerful.
So, at this point, the refugees are as tame as the sheep.
When Link saw the crowd's reaction, he knew that his goal had been achieved, and his face began to slow down.
There are many reasons why he just did that.
Executing that syndicate and eradicating a spy is just incidental.
The biggest reason is that these refugees have just arrived, their hearts have not yet been settled, order has not yet been formed, and his territory has just been established, everything is not perfect, there are huge deficiencies in management, and then with the influx of a large number of refugees, with the rapid increase of the number of people, there will inevitably be a lot of chaos in the territory.
These are objective situations, and it is difficult to improve them for a while, and we can only wait for time to improve. The best way now is to establish the absolute majesty of the lord in order to play the role of fixing the sea god needle, so that no matter how chaotic it is, there will be a bottom limit.
So, as soon as Link came, he put on a live performance, and smacked everyone in the hearts with a magic rod to tell everyone who was the master of this land.
After the stick, it is naturally a small sweet date.
After dealing with the syndicate, Link walked to a high ground, looked around at the refugees, and said in a loud voice, "I, Lord of the Wilderness, Link. Baron Moleni, welcome all to the Field Wilderness. Here, as long as you follow my decrees, you will remain free people. ”
As soon as these words came out, the refugees were relieved, the tight string in their hearts was also loosened, and people began to whisper.
"This lord is so young."
"The rumors are true, his magic is truly powerful!"
"He is so majestic and wise that he can recognize the thief of the syndicate at a glance!"
After listening to a few words, Link knew that what he had just done had a good effect, so he didn't stay any longer, turned to Gridan, and said, "Go and gather the officials, I have important things to arrange." (To be continued.) )
