Release that Witch - Chapter 1115

[Chapter 1090 An Unexpected Visitor]

Dawn Kingdom, at the foot of Cage Mountain, Thorn Town.

A group of carriages drove slowly through the streets and stopped in front of the lord’s mansion.

“When you get to the place, get the hell out of here, and be quick!” The well-dressed man in charge waved his whip in his hand, and yelled over one by one, “If you want to survive, get acquainted, and answer any questions your lord will ask later!” What, do you understand me!”

Most of the people who got out of the car were ragged and pale, their hands were tied together by a hemp rope, like a bunch of grasshoppers.

There was no doubt that they were all slaves, and of the lowest kind.

This kind of scene has recently become the norm in Thorn Town – the town that usually no one cares about has gradually become lively since the Graycastle exploration team settled down. Not only is there an endless stream of caravans, but there are also many envoys sent by lords from all over the world. group.

They either stayed, or set up tents and barracks outside the town. In just over a month, this remote town looked completely bigger.

“Master Marl, what do you think of these people?” Flynn Sheffield from Maple Song City was one of them. He rubbed his hands and looked at Mal Tokat, the representative of the great nobleman of Glory City, with a charming smile on his face. He asked earnestly, “Healthy, without defects, are the top-quality products that I personally selected from the prison. Although they look thin and weak, they are actually vicious and evil. As long as you feed them two full meals, they will definitely satisfy your needs.” Require.”

“Okay,” Mal waved his hand impatiently. Although the other party bears the surname of Lord Maple Song, he can tell from his expression that he is not someone who needs to be concerned, and it is not worth talking to him.

“It’s not me who wants to buy prisoners, but this lord next to me—Mr. Sean, the head of the royal guard of the King of Graycastle.”

“So, that’s what happened,” Flynn saluted again, “As soon as the lord heard the Lord of Dawn’s call, he immediately decided to respond and told me to prepare to leave as soon as possible. Such omissions occurred in a hurry. Please excuse me.”

“It’s okay.” Sean walked up to a group of people and swept them away one by one.

Compared with the first batch of prisoners sent by the Lord of Dawn, the quality is obviously much worse. However, the Temple of the Cursed has now entered the stage of full-scale excavation and needs a lot of manpower. He does not intend to fuss over this issue , as long as it works.

Just as he walked to the middle of the line, a prisoner suddenly knelt down towards him, “My lord, I was wronged, please let me go!”

Because his hands were tied to a long rope, the other party just finished halfway through the movement of grabbing the ground with his head, when he was pulled by the wall of people, and he could only kneel on the ground straight and begged.

“You’re courting death!” The steward immediately had an expression of gnawing teeth, if not for the presence of the other two adults, he might have whipped him long ago.

“Where is the injustice?” Sean stopped in his tracks.

“I didn’t kill or rob, I just slaughtered a neighbor’s chicken!” The prisoner replied hastily, “This will only be punished with whipping or exile in Maple Song City, the crime is not to die, my lord!”

“Is that so?” Sean looked at Flynn.

The latter hurriedly said, “Yes and no, Your Excellency. Just the day before receiving the call from the Lord of Dawn, the Earl of Sheffield just made a small adjustment to the laws of the territory – in order to combat the increasingly rampant rats and underground crimes, All penalties go up by one step, even theft.”

“What, what?” The prisoner was stunned, “Is the death penalty for stealing a few chickens?”

“Is this so difficult to understand?” Flynn glanced at him contemptuously, “A war just broke out in the kingdom. In order to eliminate the rebels, Maple Song City was also severely damaged. In addition, the number of refugees has increased rapidly, so don’t take it seriously. Judgment, how can you suppress you scum? Today you stole your neighbor’s chicken, maybe one day the neighbor will starve to death because of it. What is the difference between this and murder! In my opinion, it is just a matter of course That’s all.”

“My lord, I…”

The prisoner still wanted to defend himself, but Xiao En directly interrupted the other party, “Since you are not innocent, let’s treat this hard labor as an atonement.” He paused for a moment, then raised his voice and said, “I think you all already know, as long as After ten years of service, no matter what crimes you commit, you will be pardoned, this is the promise jointly made by Graycastle and the King of Dawn! Don’t try to escape, this is your only chance!”

After signaling his subordinates to take all the prisoners down, Fulin immediately approached with a smile, “I knew you would accept them all. According to the agreement on the call, one person is…”

“A golden dragon, a total of 106 pieces, right?” Sean replied.

“Exactly!” Flynn’s eyes lit up.

“Just go to the lord’s mansion to get it, and someone will receive you inside.”

“Yes, I’ll go right away!” He said with a smile on his face.

“Also,” Sean suddenly said when the other party turned around, “Don’t let this happen again.”

“You mean…” Flynn was slightly taken aback.

“I don’t care if the lord of Maple Song City really just revised the decree the day before. According to the agreement, the trader must inform the prisoners of the purpose and rewards and punishments of the trip before departure. This kind of person didn’t realize that he was sentenced The death penalty is just before leaving, and I will deduct part of the golden dragon next time.” Xiao En said in a deep voice.

He is not interested in serving as a fair judge, nor does he have much sympathy for the plight of these people. For him, the most important thing is to complete the tasks assigned by His Majesty Roland, and at the same time avoid as much as possible the noble merchants who are only interested in profit. Discredit His Majesty.

“I…understood.” Flynn replied with his head bowed, “I will pay attention next time.”

After the other party left, Mal shrugged, “You really worked hard.”

“Working for His Majesty is hard work. UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com”

“Really?” Mal looked at the increasingly crowded town, “Even if it’s the purchase of death-row prisoners, it must be done so meticulously, should His Majesty Wimbledon do this on purpose… or is he sympathetic by nature? I heard from my eldest brother that he is about the same age as me, but he is already the undisputed king of a country. The two should be in opposition to each other. Now even his personal guards are so outstanding, I really want to personally Come and meet him.”

“With the identity of the three major families, it is not difficult to meet the King of Graycastle.” Sean said blankly, “Besides, if I were you, I wouldn’t say these words in front of that personal guard.” .”

“What’s the matter, you don’t like to cover up more than to be honest with each other?” Marr spread his hands.

Sean figured it out. This guy turned out to be an acquaintance. As expected, he was the second son of the Tokat family. He was quite similar to the rumored enthusiastic and loyal Oro Tokert.

The best way to deal with such people is to ignore them.

He turned his back and was about to go to the yard area where the First Army was stationed, when a soldier ran over quickly.

“My lord, there is a stranger who wants to see you. He claims to know the whereabouts of the treasure.”

Xiao En frowned. Ever since the news of the cursed treasure spread, such a person would come to his door every few days, but so far they were all liars who came for the bounty.

“Didn’t you say that you don’t need to notify me before you get specific clues?”

“The man asked for you,” the soldier replied, “and he also said that he is the last group of survivors of Hermes. In addition to the whereabouts of the treasure, he also has the whereabouts of the exiles from the church. We’ve got him under control.”

Hermes… Church?

Sean’s eyes narrowed immediately, “Understood, I’ll go right away.”
