Chapter Eighty-Five: Kurland's First Sight of Cancer Island

Blair walked the ship with two escorts, and the sailors hired by Theodore had some fresh faces, but most of them had been to Cancer Island before.

The sailors who came to Cancer Island for the first time looked at the guards of the Liberation Regiment with a smile of surprise.

The refugees were all crammed into the cabins, each carrying one hundred and fifty of them, which was already seriously overloaded according to the loading capacity of the seagoing vessels.

Three hundred refugees huddled like piglets in the cramped, dimly lit cabin, causing a commotion at the sight of a sword-armed escort stepping into the cabin.

The refugees looked timidly and frightened at Blair, who was the leader, and their eyes showed a hint of panic.

Blair covered his nose, the smell in the cabin was so unpleasant, there was a nasty smell of rot.

Blair tried to keep a gentle smile as much as possible: "You have arrived at your destination, now come down with me one by one, hot water and food are prepared on the dock." ”

Hearing the hot water and food, the group of refugees couldn't help but swallow.

Blair motioned to the guards around him and asked them to guide the refugees out of the cabin one by one.

The escort team is the sixth team, and the captain is none other than the old man of Crescent Island, Gerry. Gerry is timid, but he does things in a decent manner, and he can meticulously complete the orders of his superiors.

Gerry gave the order for the team to arrange for the refugees to walk slowly and orderly onto the deck.

Many of these refugees dragged their families with their families, carried tattered linen burdens, led children, and carefully moved forward under the guidance of the guards.

These pirates have been rigorously trained to become the guards of the liberation regiment, and they usually have serious expressions, but in order to obey the orders of their superiors, they have to wear stiff smiles at this time.

Refugees who are hungry and weak when they encounter walking difficulties can be supported from the bottom of their hearts, which shows that the ideological education in ordinary times is quite good and has some results.

This small gesture by the guards made the hearts of many refugees warm.

Coolland was one of them, and he hurriedly bent down to thank the guard who had given him a helping hand, and the guard smiled stiffly back.

Then he took his wife and children by the hand, carried a tattered bag containing several sets of rotten clothes, and slowly followed behind his predecessors, and walked up the wooden staircase to the deck.

The glare of the sun made Kurander squint his eyes and couldn't help but reach out to cover it.

They had been adrift on the ship for ten days and had never been allowed to go up to deck, so they had stayed in the dimly lit cabin and had not seen the sun for too long.

"Be careful. Kurland instructed his wife and children behind him to slowly walk down the ship with the long line.

There were two neat lines at the dock station, each holding an iron rod in their hands, which looked like they should be weapons, but this ...... The weapon is also too strange, how can anyone use a burning stick as a weapon.

There are two cauldrons on the other side, and the steamed buns of Baihuahua are stacked on the steamer, and the wafting fragrance makes everyone sniff.

Seeing the hot food, there was a slight commotion in the team, and Kurland couldn't help but slide his throat, glancing at his poor son who wanted to rush out, Kurland whispered sternly: "Don't move." ”

Then, he sighed unconsciously.

Kurland's family of three lives well in the Northland, with their own one-third of an acre of land, they can do some carpentry skills, and they live a good life all year round, at least they are not hungry, and they can make new clothes for their wives and children every Christmas Day.

But then, war broke out.

It is rumored that the princess of the enemy country killed her father and brother and led an army to invade the kingdom.

Kurland had seen the majestic Hurricane Fort, which he once thought was the strongest castle on the continent that no one could breach.

But unexpectedly, in less than a month, the kingdom's army suffered defeats one after another, and the Hurricane Castle was soon trampled by the Frostwolf Iron Horse of the Queen of Eternal Winter.

Kurander didn't know why the kingdom's army was so vulnerable, he only knew that war was coming.

The inhabitants, merchants, and nobles of the castle fled south for their lives, and there were many scattered armies in the village, who burned and looted and raped women in the village.

But later, he learned that these soldiers were the army's broken kingdom, and they were like hungry wolves, ravaging their kingdom and persecuting the inhabitants of their own country.

He couldn't figure it out, why was this happening?

After the scattered soldiers had eaten and looked for another place, Kurland returned to the ruined village, where nearly half of the village, which had a few hundred people, had died.

There was no time to grieve, and the army came to the village again, this time the army of the Kingdom of Eternal Winter, and Kurander had to take refuge in the mountains once again.

Later, I heard that the Marquis of Mesfield had recaptured Fort Hurricane, and was reorganizing the army, demanding that all residents around Fort Hurricane and north of the Onyx River be evacuated.

He said that he wanted to clear the wilderness and cut off the supply of the enemy army that was ravaging the kingdom.

Hey, he didn't understand any of this, but he knew that he couldn't stay in his hometown anymore, and as for the land...... Or is my wife right, it is important to save my life.

Besides, General Mesfil promised to settle them in the south.

So Kurander took his wife and children and followed the large army all the way south, and the number of fleeing troops grew, but after crossing the Onyx River, the noble lords closed the gates of the castle and sent guards to expel them.

At that time he had a lot of dry food on him, so he did not go hungry, so he continued south, and it was rumored that the south was rich, and that the king would not leave his people behind, and would surely settle them properly.

But then, they were disappointed again and again, and almost all the territories refused to allow the refugees to cross the border, sending a large number of guards to stop them.

The food ran out, but the destination was unknown, and it seemed that the whole kingdom had abandoned them.

The refugees are desperate.

Everyone began to starve, and they went all the way south, eating everything they could, and he had seen many people exchange children to cook food, which was disgusting.

Is it really a sin, so that you will not go to hell?

Kurander prayed every day, but he was disappointed that the Goddess of Light never appeared.

Later, when he heard that a lord would take in a certain number of refugees, Kurland rushed into a frenzy and scrambled, and then they were taken onto the ships without anyone telling them where they were going to be settled.

Kurland sighed, and pulled his wife and children tightly, he looked around, and finally knew where he was.

This is supposed to be an island? But he doesn't know, who are the people on the island?

It's not like saying it's the territory of a noble, and it's saying it's a pirate, but I don't think it's like this, where are pirates like this.

Standing neatly one by one, without squinting, the body is clean, although the smile is not good-looking, but it makes people feel warm.

The commotion in the ranks of the refugees slowly grew louder, and then Kurland saw a young man in the center of the procession on the opposite side, frowned, and turned to say something to the people around him.

Kurland looked at the young man curiously, no more than twenty years old, hey, there was a slave mark on his face, but ...... He looks, like the leader of these people?
