Transcendent Noble
Chapter 67
Three kilometers below the hill camp, there is a large camp, which is the temporary free people camp ordered by Victor to receive the free people who come to take refuge in him.
The area of the temporary residence is OK, with a look of 1 square kilometer. It has a residential area, a square and a reservoir. But the facilities in the camp are a little crude. The residential area on the right is full of low shacks, crowded together. The fence of the camp is a fence made of clay and red pine branches. This kind of fence is very fragile. Ordinary farmers can easily dig it with tools, so it only has the function of dividing areas.
On the left of the temporary residence is the square area, where the ground is flat and clean. There are rows of tables and chairs in one corner of the square, which is the place for free people to eat.
Paul is eating his breakfast in the dining area, which is the root of a plant called sweet potato. Paul carefully peeled off the roasted and blackened potato skin, and the white flesh suddenly exposed. It was steaming and smelling. He smiled and ate.
Paul likes the taste of sweet potato very much. The most important thing is that it can fill his stomach. A half-aged boy like him is always very hungry.
In fact, Paul has dug up this kind of sweet potato before, but the mountain people told him that only wild boars can eat it. People will have diarrhea and even die of poisoning.
Therefore, when the temporary camp provided such food to them, it was resisted by everyone. Finally, it was the distinguished leader of the villagers who took the lead in eating before they dared to try.
Later, the managers in the station told them that the sweet potato was indeed poisonous. Eating it raw or stewing would make people have diarrhea, but as long as it was dried for three days, the toxicity of the sweet potato would disappear, and it tasted very sweet after being roasted.
Paul thought it was good to live in this camp. At least he could often eat wild boar meat here. When he was in the free camp, the meat was enjoyed by the leader and his men first.
"Paul, don''t eat too much. You''ll have to go out to work later."
It was wood, Paul''s father, who was also an honest farmer.
"Oh." Paul promised, but he didn''t put down the sweet potato in his hand.
Wood shook his head, but a smile came out of his mouth. He was also very satisfied with the life here. He could not only eat enough, but also didn''t have to be beaten often. Therefore, father and son work very hard. The villager''s leader has also told him that he will recommend their father and son to become the leader of the Lord, so that they can move to the hill camp.
"I hope there will be no change."
Yesterday''s turmoil made wood a little worried. In the past, the village leaders had sent people to ask them to work, but there was no news today.
"Dang" "Dang" "Dang" three gentle and distant bells rang in the square.
Wood and Paul raised their heads in surprise. It was different from the rapid alarm bell yesterday. It was a collective bell. As former leaders, they were familiar with the difference.
"Everyone gather in the square! Lord, summon everyone!"
Several heavily armed guards announced loudly in the camp.
Under the environmental protection of the guard, Victor stood on the high platform of the square and looked down at the dark crowd below. He looked cold. Today, he came to kill!
"My Lord, everyone has arrived." Sheriff Linda, wearing leather armor and a long sword, whispered to victor.
Victor nodded, took a step forward and raised his voice to the free people below.
"Villagers! I am Baron Victor Wimbledon, the Lord of the kingdom of Gambis and the owner of this land."
Hearing the Lord''s voice, the free people below held their breath and looked in awe.
"Although most of you are free people, as the Lord here, I also provide you with shelter and food, shelter and order." Victor continued.
"But just yesterday, a small group of people openly killed people in this camp, which caused riots in the whole camp and finally killed and injured more than a dozen people."
"This kind of behavior endangers the safety of all of you and violates my will. This is a provocation to me. According to the law of the kingdom of Gambis, killing innocent people should be hanged! Come on! Bring those murderers up!"
With Victor''s order, several guards came with three bound men.
Victor noticed that although the three men were dragged by the guard, they were still struggling back and forth. They didn''t refuse to go, but they didn''t want to be caught by the guard, so they were pushed and pushed in front of victor.
These prisoners were tied up, their mouths were strangled by knotted hemp ropes, their bodies were stained with blood and their faces were blue and swollen. It seemed that they had been severely taught, but their eyes were still fierce. They glanced at the crowd from time to time. They had no fear of being executed, but showed a kind of defiance and wildness. This is the mountain people.
Physique 10, spirit 8, perception 9, life 10. This is the data collected by Victor from a mountain man headed by him.
This element attribute surprised Victor, which has reached the data standard of elite soldiers.
Victor looked again. The data of the other two mountain people were basically the same, which made Victor''s heart move. He ordered the guard below: "untie the hemp rope on their mouths."
The rope in their mouth was untied, and a trace of joy appeared in the eyes of the three mountain people. At least they had the right to defend themselves.
"You three killed people for no reason. I''ll hang you. Do you have anything to say?" Victor asked coldly.
"Lord, we didn''t kill for no reason. It was those people who robbed my woman that we killed them." The mountain people headed by shouted loudly.
"My Lord, this man is talking nonsense. His woman is the wife of other free people and was occupied by him. After taking refuge in our camp, the woman returned to her husband. The mountain man was very unconvinced. He beat the couple many times and was beaten severely by our people before he became honest. Unexpectedly, this time he took someone and stabbed the husband to death, And killed a free man who fought against them. " Linda whispered to victor.
For women again! Victor sighed in his heart that the male to female ratio of his villagers was seriously unbalanced, reaching 8:2. Don''t say that these free people who had just joined him, even the first leaders who followed him, also had frequent conflicts because of jealousy, so Victor asked Nelson to find a way to recruit some women.
"The woman you robbed can also be your woman? Even if it''s your woman, why don''t you ask the sheriff to deal with it? Instead, take the opportunity to kill?"
Victor looked at the mountain people coldly. He was sure to kill the three people, but he also had to find out the difference between the mountain people and other free people, as well as the management of the free people''s residence.
"My Lord, that woman followed me, it''s mine. I gave her the best food and the best fur. Why should that weak guy compete with me? We have been like this for generations. Whoever is the strongest will choose a woman first."
"When we arrived at this camp, the sheriff ignored the demands of our mountain people and asked those women to choose men again. There are so many of them and they will please the group elders. How can we fight? We kill in a hurry!"
The mountain people leader shouted loudly, which aroused the echo of some mountain people in the crowd. Victor then found that these free people were clearly divided into two groups. Although the number of people on the left is small, they are obviously strong and wild. They are all mountain people among the free people.
"Let''s fart! You wild people are lazy when you work, rob meat when you eat, and bully people whenever you like! You deserve our praise?" A village leader couldn''t help scolding.
"Captain, we don''t work as well as you, but we are all good hunters. Don''t we drive away every time wild animals attack? We are strong and naturally eat more. Besides, the station is meant to feed everyone." Another mountain man loudly defended.
"Fart! Even wild wolves have been killed around. What wild animals are there? Even some wild boars have been driven away by the militia! Can you drive them away?"
Victor had understood that these mountain people were the leaders of the free people. After taking refuge, he wanted to climb over the heads of ordinary farmers as before. The free people who were born as farmers hated these overbearing guys very much, which naturally caused confrontation and exclusion.
"Sir, we obey your will and take our men to you. We thought we could get at least one villager leader to do it. As a result, we have to do farm work like those refugees, but we really don''t do farm work. We are all first-class hunters, so they excluded us. This time, the guy scolded me first and I did it."
"Sir, we are better than those farmers. We should be soldiers, not farmers. Please make the decision!"
Hearing what the mountain people leader said, the mountain people in the crowd immediately shouted. They seemed to have been wronged. In fact, they just wanted to strive for more interests.
The farmers on the other side were quiet, not just because of cowardice. They knew that they should be in awe in front of the Lord, or they would be driven out.
"Enough!" Victor let out a loud drink and suddenly quieted down.
"If you kill someone, you will be executed! Since you think you have been treated unfairly, I will give you a chance. I will send a guard to compete with you barehanded. If you can kill him, I will forgive your death. Renault, go!"
Victor''s eyes showed a trace of hostility. He whispered to Renault, "don''t keep alive!"
Although these mountain people took refuge in the hill camp because they were afraid of Nelson''s iron and blood means, they were rebellious and aggressive, and even claimed their own rules. This is to die!
The ropes of the three mountain people were untied. The mountain people leader determined that the big man opposite was not Nelson. He cautiously asked Victor, "Sir, can we be pardoned if we kill him?"
"Don''t you think you are strong? Then prove to me that you are really brave and good at fighting. As long as you can kill him, you can become a soldier of the family and obtain the status of vassal."
"Good!" The leader of the mountain people showed a cruel look.
"Let''s go!" With a roar from the mountain people leader, these fierce mountain people immediately rushed up. They don''t believe that three people can''t kill a guard!
With a bow, Renault rushed to the mountain people who rushed towards him, hit them directly and made a loud noise. The mountain people''s leader immediately flew backward at a faster speed. His sternum was broken and vomited black blood on the ground. He was no longer alive.
All this happened so fast that the other two mountain people didn''t find that their companions had been killed. Instead, they threw down Renault''s side, and their big fists fell on Renault''s head like raindrops. With their physique, they could kill even cattle!
But Renault is not a cow. His 17 point physique gives him strong strength and incomparably tough body. Moreover, his strength soars after loading the secret shape of Fu Niu!
Renault ignored the fist that fell on him. When his body moved, there was a "click" sound of broken bones. The two fierce mountain people also fell a few meters away, with their chest concave and seven orifices bleeding, and were killed on the spot.
With just one touch, the battle is over.
This scene of devastation was no accident to victor, but it was extremely shocking to the free people in the surrounding areas, especially the mountain people who had just been noisy.
"Carry them out and bury them." Said Victor faintly.
Several guards immediately dragged the three bodies down, and Victor shouted to the stunned crowd.
"You are all free people, but as long as you are in my territory, you must obey my will. This is the power given to the LORD by the glorious code. Anyone who is unwilling to obey me must leave this territory."
"Today, I executed three criminals. If one of you is not satisfied with this, you can leave this camp freely now, which is also your right. However, as long as you leave this camp, don''t dream of becoming my leader!"
"Make your choice!"
With Victor''s voice, the gate of the camp was opened, and the mountain people looked at each other. After a while, several mountain people left the team first and walked outside the gate. Then more and more mountain people left. Before long, more than half of the mountain people chose to leave the camp.
In the end, only a small half of the mountain people chose to stay. Most of them were old and weak, and those young and strong basically chose to leave.
"Well, those who choose to stay, you should be glad! Just two days ago, my guards found traces of ferocious wolves. Now, they have been rushed to the periphery of the camp by the guards."
Victor''s intimidation caused a commotion in the camp. At this time, the free people realized why the guards of the camp left yesterday. It turned out that they were all going to encircle and suppress the fierce wolves.
"You don''t have to worry about the safety of the camp. As long as you stay here, the guards of the camp will ensure everyone''s safety. At the same time, I have ordered to suspend the construction of the village and strengthen the temporary camp first. For those who choose to leave, I can only wish them good luck!"
The Liberals were quiet, and Renault''s arrogance made everyone think he was a knight. There are knights guarding it. The fierce wolf certainly doesn''t dare to move around.
"For the mountain people who choose to stay, I promise you as the Lord that you will be treated fairly. If you are excluded and bullied, you can respond to the sheriff. As long as you work hard, I will give you the status of leading the people."
"Next, I will promote the 20 most outstanding free citizens and give them the status of leader. They can move to the hill camp and accept the protection of the family. They are..."
When Victor read the names of wood and Paul, the father and son couldn''t help holding together. Tears filled their eyes. The life of the free people was like a nightmare for them, and now the nightmare is over.
