Chapter 686: Curry Favor (Supplemental Update)
"But do we really want to listen to the civilians?" Old Penros completely ignored Peter's choking words, and they thought of a bad outcome, that is, the other party would come and kill people, as long as the leading city lord was pushed out......
The other nobles seemed to agree with Penros's words, and those who did not go to battle, and even if they did, they were all fanatical believers in Eros, and it was impossible for them to come back to give the good news.
So they didn't believe the words of the civilians outside at all, not to mention that the nobles who could still live in Sunset City were all brainwashed by the god of love.
If Peter hadn't been young enough, he would have been brainwashed by Eros, and as a rebellious teenager, he didn't believe in Eros's words at all.
This is also the reason why he was elected by everyone to become the lord of the city.
"You're still too young, do you have to trust those civilians, they can't wait to ......" Susie was halfway through his words before Peter interrupted, "Then you can be the lord of the city, at least that's what I want to say, you can't let them wait outside the city gate all the time!" We don't have any troops anymore, and even the police in the city are less than thirty! ”
The crowd was completely silent, and some of the nobles were ready to flee and had already left the venue.
"Even if you run away, where can you flee to?" Old Penrose sat down, his face bloodless, "You're right, we can't do anything but accept each other's demands. ”
"We can also give them the land of the Earth Goddess, anyway, even if we don't have these lands, we won't starve to death, and the Earth Goddess is not the only one in this world who can grow things." A nobleman sitting at the bottom of the seat said with a complaint, "Actually, we all know that Sunset City has not been invaded by demonic beasts yet, in fact, because it is located in the southernmost place. ”
"Okay, there's no point in us complaining, let's let the elves and those messengers come in first, we can't stop them." Penros said with relief, and everyone began to complain again, but everyone knew that there was no room for it.
Some people continue to choose to flee, of course, they all know that this is the last place they can escape.
The nobles who were able to come in had already gone through the last struggle.
Penros even sighed, "It's good that the Duke didn't take those things from the vault, this is the key, if those people want it later, you can leave it to them." ”
"Isn't that what you're trying to save your life?" Peter muttered, "Actually, you also know that if I am the lord of this city, you may not be able to escape the fate of death." ”
In fact, the most irritating thing in his heart was, since these people were so afraid of death, why couldn't they trust those civilians?
In their hearts, are civilians such despicable creatures?
"It's been two hours, and I knew we didn't need to come so early." Looking at the slum not far away, Linda frowned a little worriedly, she still had a lot of purification potions in her hand, if it weren't for the fact that there were still many people trembling and watching, she would definitely give these people a shot.
But once there is movement, these people are likely to stampede.
What is reassuring is that there are already some natives who have been reborn and resurrected, and are persuading everyone to believe in Goddess Gesia. Some of the commoners thought of the cruelty of the god of love to the infidels, and kowtowed and obediently believed in Gesia.
The tide is moving very quickly, after all, these poor people do not want to die.
Peter, who ran errands, sweated profusely, ran to the gate of the city and let a few elves open the door.
"The city lord has agreed to let you enter the city, but ...... There's no need to wait at the door, there are no defenders left. The elf bowed a little and bent down to Linda and said, "Would you like to rest and let them arrange for you to pick up the wind and wash the dust?" ”
"No need." Linda looked at the numb paupers who were busy believing in Gesia.
These people obviously don't see the guards anymore, and they still live in the slums.
The skinny, withered children, and the young women who looked dirty...... Don't you even know what to resist?
Or is it numb?
The carriage soon began to move, and the paupers seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, of course the speed of their belief in Gesia had quickened a lot, although there was an element of showmanship, not necessarily sincerely, but there were still many people, for fear of being regarded as infidels, and hurriedly bowed down.
Once these people have taken Harvest City, they will really have to worship the goddess Gesia.
The paupers didn't even think it was a mission full of goods.
For them, a few people from Kisind City may be able to occupy Harvest City.
"It's horribly clean inside the city." Looking at the bleak streets, the retreating pedestrians, and the closed doors and windows, Lena also sighed. This is really a huge contrast to the city of Kissinde, in the middle of the city, the half-built statue of Eros looks so dilapidated, and the remnants of faith on it are still bubbling with demonic breath.
"Well, we wanted to tear down this statue, but time is tight, and the poor people don't want to come in now, for fear that we will cause them a burden." Peter said with some embarrassment, "I see that there is a statue of the goddess in the city of Kisinde, and I think we can push this statue and rebuild the statue of the goddess Gesia." I'm sure the lord won't refuse this decision. ”
"There's no need, Goddess Gesia doesn't need this, it's better for you to feed the poor outside first." Even Lena couldn't stand it anymore, "The goddess can guarantee that you won't die, but after believing in the goddess, if your body is too weak, you can only be in a state of resurrection for the rest of your life, so life is better than death." ”
I don't know if Peter understands it, since this elf believes in the goddess Gesia, it seems that he has become a divine messenger, and he is completely all-round to please Gesia.
"Of course what you said makes sense, you can ask the nobles to give food to the commoners, I mean, Eros has done the same, and it has worked very well, and it has gained quite a lot of believers." Peter suggests, "We can also have those who seek out die-hard believers who love God......
"It's not necessary at all." Shen Lin interrupted the elf Peter with some impatience, "Goddess Gesia doesn't need to cleanse the pagans in this way, the true gods don't care about this. ”
"You, you're right." Peter was a little surprised, but held back, because the other party's rank was very high, even if he was not respectful enough, he couldn't complain anything in front of the other party.
"The First Evolution"
He quickened his pace, and led the crowd through the square, bypassing the bloody execution bench, to the door of the council hall.
