Release that Witch Chapter 124: Return to small town


"This is probably the day I've seen you lie the most," said Taylor after Nightingale emerged from the mist.

"Who made the visitor Church's High Priest," Roland spread his hand, "How about, can you tell the other's lie?"

"No, the scene around him is God Punishment Stone absorb, I can only see a dark mass."

Unfortunately, High Priest cannot be treated like noble, Roland thought regretfully. He put those two **** on the table, "You say, this thing is as magical as they say?"

If the pain is relieved, morphine can do it. As for making soldiers endless, it sounds like the effect of adrenal hormones. The question is how to extract these two substances into pills? Church should have conquered the world with this technical level.

Wait ... Roland suddenly thought of a possibility, could it be related to magic power?

"Can you see the flow of magic power?" He looked at Nightingale, "Is there magic power on these two balls?"

Nightingale carefully observed the meeting, "magic power is not visible, but it is a bit like God Punishment Stone."

"God Punishment Stone?" Roland froze.

"Yeah," she nodded, "You have also seen the world under the fog. There are only black and white, but the darkness formed by black and God Punishment Stone is different. The latter is more like an empty hole. The world swallowed in. I don't know how to describe that feeling ... "Nightingale hesitated," rather than saying that there is nothing in the hole, it's better to say there is nothing inside. "

"Nothingness?"

"Yes, nothingness," she nodded. "These two **** also have traces of nothingness, but they are extremely subtle, and ... they are not circular, but they look like flowing black. Filament. "

"Can these nothingness affect your ability?"

Nightingale grabbed the balls, spread out the fog, and quickly retreated, "It seems to have no effect."

"It seems necessary to find a prisoner of death to try these two pills to try the effect," Roland wrapped the pills carefully with paper and drew them into his arms.

"I didn't expect Church to be so optimistic about you," Nightingale sat back to the prince, a little depressed.

"If High Priest does not wear God Punishment Stone, I bet nine out of ten are lies." Roland said, "The most important thing about important is that what they do and what they ask for is not at all right."

"Why?"

"Look at what they want: more churches, more believers, a prince or King supported by themselves, and from the monarchy propaganda. A stable country is more conducive to their development, Development forces. Otherwise, churches and monasteries would be reduced to the target of looting by refugees and noble in the midst of war.

"But don't they think you can bring a stable life for the people?"

"Not so," Roland shook his head. "Stability comes from unity or balance. Even if the king eats, drinks and plays every day, the people of the unified kingdom live better than refugees in the war. So it is not surprising that they support Second Prince. Third Princess is not strange, it ’s weird to come and support me, especially when Garcia wins. "

If Church fully supports Garcia at this time, I am afraid that Kingdom Capital and the eastern line will be swallowed by her in less than half a year. At that time, 70% of the land of Kingdom of Greycastle will belong to Queen of Clear Water. Roland thinks that the pressure they will face will also increase greatly. Do not help the strong, but choose the weakest self at present, it seems that the decision Church is in your favor. It can be assumed that if they accept their support, the situation of the Greycastle battle between the two kings will become even more chaotic. The direct consequence of the staged Three Kingdoms is that the population will drastically decrease, wealth will rapidly drain, and the war will spread to the whole country. drag.

What benefits does this have for Church? Not to mention the expansion of believers, I am afraid that churches built in various places will be demolished.

"I don't understand your noble thoughts, always winding around," Nightingale sighed.

"Yeah," Roland responded with a smile, "except me."

"..." witch narrowed his eyes and stared at the prince for a long time. "Strange, why is this sentence true?"

After three days, Roland finally evacuated the castle and stronghold library, and set off on the H.M.S. Little Town with satisfaction.

When Scarlet Water River approaches Border Town, the scene on both sides of the river has changed. On the open space burned out by Anna across the town, many people are busy watching and dressing. They should be the serfs who first shipped to small town. On the side close to Impassable Mountain Range, a number of simple wooden sheds have been set up, and there are some activities in the wooden shed. Roland guesses that these people are the family members of serfs.

These people have been tied to the land for generations. The children born are also serfs. Because they ca n’t see hope, most people live a numb life. The trend is that they are not working from the heart ’s desire, but the slave owners. Leather whip and noose in hands. The low productivity is a huge waste of manpower natural resource.

There is no doubt that slavery is the enemy of industrial production and belongs to a system that must be abolished. However, Roland does not intend to make them all freemen with a wave of their hands, but to provide a channel for them to see the hope of being promoted to freemen. There is a precedent for the masters to show their kindness to let the slaves out of slavery This kind of compromise will not have much impact even if it is passed out. At the very least, other nobles feel that they are just good people.

When the time comes, he will fully implement the abolition of slavery law, and the resistance will be much smaller.

dock nearby is full of sailing boats. Obviously this little dock can't afford such heavy transportation pressure. Fortunately, the H.M.S. Little Town has a shallow draft and can be directly docked without dock. It seems that the expansion of dock also needs to be listed on the schedule, Roland thought.

After the group returned to the castle, he didn't care about the rest. When he returned to the office, he immediately called Barov and asked him to report the situation receiving the supplies.

And Assistant Minister has been prepared for a long time, and pulled out a roll of parchment paper from its pocket and spread it out on a large wooden table.

"Her Royal Highness, what for several days transported you back to the castle really scared me," though that said, the folds overflowing from his face betrayed his mood. "The twelve apprentices tossed all night, Counting all kinds of coins, a total of more than 14,000 gold royal! Your Highness, this is equivalent to the annual income of ordinary towns! "

Duke has accumulated these gold royal. I'm afraid it took more than 20 years. Roland thought that it came from the sacking, plundering and exploitation of the Western Region people. You need to turn them into food, steel and machinery as soon as possible. "What about gem, jewelry and crafts?"

"It hasn't been converted yet, but it is conservatively estimated to be around 10,000 gold royal. If you send it to Kingdom Capital for auction, the price will be higher. Now they are all stored in your castle basement," Barov paused, "but such a Now, the room originally used to store food is not enough. I suggest you expand the castle area and add a warehouse to store other supplies. "(To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to start investing, you Support is my biggest motivation.
