Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 65:


The so-called poaching means going to hunt in the mountains and forests belonging to the nobles.

According to the tradition of this world, noble lords have the ownership of the entire territory, including the land and the things that grow on it.

As for man-made objects, or things such as crops that someone contributes to during the growth process, those who contribute can get part of the benefits, and the bulk of it still belongs to the lord.

In the mountains and forests, no matter whether plants or animals, they are of course not man-made, and no one contributes to their growth, so they are the lord's, and they are entirely the lord's, and no one can attempt to invade them.

Therefore, with the exception of hunters who have been approved by the lord and paid hunting tax, any act of hunting in the mountains is considered to be the theft of the lord’s wealth. This kind of crime is called "poaching". The minimum punishment is to chop hands or goug the eyes. The most common is hanging. Some cruel lords also use torture such as skinning to severely punish untouchables who dare to invade their own interests.

It is said that some powerful lords will also let the mage use magic to turn those poached farmers into animals, and then start hunting them, in this way let these people who do not live or die "make their own way".

In short, poaching is a very dangerous and deadly thing. People who don’t want to die are best not to do it.

Sui Xiong certainly didn't want to die, but he couldn't just watch others starve to death in front of him.

The hungry people lack food, there is food in the mountains, and he can just borrow a good crossbow.

What should I do, isn’t it a very clear thing?

When he grew up in a democratic society, he never felt that the aristocracy’s possession of everything on the territory was justified. On the contrary, words such as "serving the people" had already soaked his blood and turned into bone marrow. That touch of bright red.

So he persuaded the tavernkeeper to enter the mountain with a crossbow and a few men who were desperate to feed the young and old at home.

The crop failure did not affect the life of the beasts in the mountains, at least from the deer that they shot to death.

"Look, even the deer has oil, but people are so skinny and hungry..." Sui Xiong complained, and sneaked away with everyone carrying the deer.

It was a pretty sturdy stag, probably weighing seven or eight hundred catties. From its body and the belt meat, it finally obtained about four hundred fifty sixty kilograms of edible things, including skin, meat, bones, and some internal organs.

These things, combined with some wild vegetables or something, can probably allow several families to spend about half a month. Although the antlers and some things may be able to sell for a lot of money, Sui Xiong carefully buried them deep underground and did not dare to see the light.

He knew that once this matter was spread out, the lord knew it would be fatal!

But there is no impermeable wall in the world. Two or three days later, other hungry people will learn about this. They are already hungry and cold, where they can care about the law of the lord, so they come to Sui Xiong for help.

Sui Xiong helped, and went to hunt a deer in the forest.

That's it, time and time again, things quickly spread.

About ten days later, at noon, the lord’s captain took a dozen soldiers to the tavern.

Sui Xiong certainly wouldn't catch it all, he tried to escape. With his keen reaction and good strength, he actually rushed out of the encirclement and ran towards the gate of the town.

A feather arrow cut through the air and shot him from behind.

He staggered and continued running.

So he got the second arrow and the third arrow again...

After a while, Sui Xiong’s body was hung from a tree at the entrance of the town. There were six arrows on his body. The blood soaked his clothes. They fell on the ground, dyeing a large area of ​​grass red. .

After another period of time, before dark, several other poachers were hung beside him one after another. Some were hanged alive and hanged, and some were hanged after being killed like him.

The sky is getting dark, and the cold wind is howling on winter nights.

That night, a bolt of lightning struck the tree that was usually used as a gallows. The entire tree was burned to ashes, along with the corpse hanging from the tree.

The big jellyfish that mortals can't see floats in the air, thinking and sighing.

"As a deity, I really lack attention to the mortal world!"

He said to himself: "When I heard that the Church of the Goddess of Harvest and the Church of the God of Wealth had a conflict and suffered a loss, I found it very interesting... I didn't expect this'fun' behind it to be such a heavy tragedy. !"

Then he returned to the playground and ordered the Church of the Void Mask to help the hungry people.

"Food will be a big problem." Rod immediately said, "We can't provide enough food to help a country!"

"I will find a way." Sui Xiong said in a deep voice.

"Moreover...transportation is also a problem." Rod added, "It is beyond our church’s current ability to transport food to all parts of the Gold Coin Federation. As for disaster relief to the Dhaka Merchant League, it’s simply It's impossible!"

"Go and do your best first." Sui Xiong said, "If you encounter practical difficulties that cannot be solved, come to me. I will find a solution."

Everyone looked at each other, wondering why he suddenly gave such a ridiculous order. But whether it is out of kindness or loyalty, they cannot refuse such an order.

This order was quickly implemented, and the food stored by the entire church was continuously transported to the south and sent to the gold coin federation for disaster relief.

At the same time, Sui Xiong will fully open the portal to the Gold Coin Federation and Dhaka Merchant League, so that more food can be transported as soon as possible.

"In this case, your food storage will only take a few days at most." Morani came to him, "Where are you going to find food?"

"The Beast World." Sui Xiong said.

"I guess so." Morani smiled, "Let me help you."

In fact, Morani is much more than willing to help him. It is far more than just the family of the Masked Void Church who are willing to vigorously provide relief.

In that chaotic world where countless beasts were multiplied, Sui Xiong saw many gods who came here to hunt. These deities are mainly the patron saints of various places. Their priesthood determines that they must prevent large-scale disasters and famines in the areas they guard, so even if they know that they will be ripped off, they can't control that much.

Of course, he also saw the master of this world, a powerful deity called the "Beast King".

The Beast World is a wild world, about one-third the size of the main plane continent. There are inexplicable beasts living here, from wild beasts to monsters. This world is ruled by a powerful god, who is the supreme ruler of this world.

In order to get his approval and hunt for enough food, all the gods paid a heavy price.

But they have no choice, because if they want to get enough food, hunting here is relatively the least expensive way.

Of course, they can also go to the natural gods to borrow food. In the natural gods, there are large tracts of golden wheat fields and trees full of fruits, which are enough to feed the victims.

But the natural gods have always disliked human beings. Most of them felt that the excessive expansion of the intelligent race, including humans, had already disrupted the balance of nature. If people can have a few ******s and kill more than half of the population, they will only applaud.

It's probably okay for them to use food for banquets. Borrowing food for disaster relief? Then stop dreaming!

Other food-producing worlds are either too small to supply such a large amount of food; or it takes too much time, and it takes too much time; or they are entrenched with fierce and powerful monsters, even the gods dare not easily Get involved.

After all... these local guardian gods are probably just the lowest level "weak divine power" in the gods. Their power is simply not enough to travel to those dangerous worlds and hunt in them.

Even in the Beast Realm, it is necessary to obtain the permission of the Beast King to be able to hunt safely.

In order to gain the right to hunt in the animal world, Sui Xiong also paid a considerable price to the Beastmaster, losing a lot of the divinity that is as important as blood to the deity.

But he successfully hunted enough food and found many valuable species.

Winter passes, spring comes, then summer, autumn.

When the long famine finally passed, the entire Masked Void Church was exhausted, including their gods.

And their hard work has been rewarded. The influence of the church has been greatly enhanced, and the number of believers has also increased a lot. Even in many places in the Gold Coin Federation and Dhaka Commercial League, some small-scale churches have appeared.

These churches often only have dozens, a dozen or even a few people, but their beliefs are extremely pious. For the **** who selflessly reached out to them in the critical moment, even if it was just a big jellyfish, they responded with deep gratitude and pious belief.

Sui Xiong's gain is not only that, in this disaster relief, he met many gods, and he also gained the approval of many kind gods.

The name "Masked Void" is not just a "fighting but not good brain jellyfish~IndoMTL.com~" but it has become a "playable, not good brain but very kind-hearted jellyfish." Jellyfish".

Even more than one powerful and good deity has privately sought out the Lord of Mysteries, hoping to be a peacemaker and mediate between the two.

These gods came out individually or it was nothing, but after they came out one after another, the attitude of the mystery master also fluctuated.

"It seems that things have turned for the better!" Morani told Sui Xiong happily, "I think maybe this battle can be avoided!"

Sui Xiong is very happy.

So when he made "Passer Sui Xiong mk5", he added a little extra ability to this clone.

"Surviving is the number one priority." He said, "Whether it's making mistakes or insisting on justice, you must be able to live. Therefore, a traverser needs the ability to escape even in the face of danger."

"He doesn't need to be very strong, but he needs to be very keen, able to sense danger, and be able to make the right response in time."

"Also, when he needs to escape, he must be able to run fast."

So, the "traverser" became an athlete who is proficient in sprints and long runs.

Sui Xiong feels that such a person will definitely be able to live very well in this world and live a long time.
