Release that Witch Chapter 1262: Conflict in New Town
"Queue up and disembark, don't push!" Greycastle people in black uniforms shouted as they shuttled through the crowd. "Look at your number plate and find the corresponding checkpoint after disembarking. Don't go in the wrong direction! "
Manfred, who has not yet recovered from the shock, was pushed by the crowd and boarded the long-lost deck.
A panoramic view of the busy port is in front of him.
That is definitely the largest harbour he has ever seen. The long dock extends along the coast without seeing the end. Unlike the wet and decaying impression port in the past, the ground here is covered with a layer of white brick and stone, looking neat and clean in the past. Boats of all sizes continue to flow, even the busiest harbour of Kingdom of Dawn cannot be compared with it.
This should be a very spectacular sight, which can also be seen in the amazing tone of the people around, but for him, it is only in the confused mind, and add a less important one. Nothing more.
Manfred is almost looking at the direction when the ship came in three steps, hoping to see the figure of the iron bird -- again. This is almost a physical instinct reaction, as if seeking evidence and comfort to show that It's not that he's caught in imagination.
Unfortunately, those strange things didn't appear again until I stepped on the trestle.
He felt a little lost in his heart.
"Please take out your number plate and compare the first three digits to the respective checkpoints!" Many people on the dock shouted holding strange metal links, that thing seems to have the ability to amplify the sound, its The words were clear even in the noisy flow of people. "Then follow the instructions of the followers and complete the immigration check. Welcome to Greycastle Kingdom Capital and welcome to be one of us!"
Manfred shook his head vigorously, forcibly setting aside the thoughts of bottom of heart, and focused his attention.
It ’s a strange way to greet --. He could n’t help thinking. People here know that they did n’t take the initiative to move to Greycastle, and what Greycastle did in Wolf Heart was also mandatory. That said, it still made him feel a little at ease.
The original towering rock wall suddenly subsided here, forming a natural checkpoint. A dense line of migrants formed a long line, and the scores slowly passed the checkpoint. The number of people gathered on dock alone has exceeded 10,000, and the migrants apparently come from more than Wolf Heart ... can mobilize so many hands in a short time and project the will of the ruler to the remaining three kingdoms. I am afraid it is the best portrayal of Greycastle strength.
Suddenly, the team stopped moving forward, and Manfred heard a restlessness behind him.
It's not just outsiders, but even those in black who maintain order are astonished.
He turned back and found that a huge sailless sea ship was slowly sailing into the port. -- has a slender body, which is made of metal as a whole. There are no exposed paddle wheels on both sides. The straight dry strings seemed extremely powerful. Wherever such a ship is, it must be the focus of much attention. But it is clear that what really surprised Greycastle people was not the ship itself, but its state ...
"Are these people crazy? Take iron to build a ship!" Someone whispered, "Don't they know that iron will rust when it meets water?"
"Maybe King of Greycastle just wants to show off their own house ... but iron ship is really powerful. I never knew that such a heavy thing could float on the water before I saw a stone boat."
"What's the use of prestige for ten days and a half months? I've run much at sea before. What situation hasn't seen before. The erosion capacity of salt water is much more serious than you think. General paint can't protect for long. You see, this is the end of chaos. "
It is true that black and brown rust spots are everywhere on the steel ship. The surface should be bright and pitted, and the damage marks are very dazzling, which is in sharp contrast to the white dock. The mast above his head even folded into several sections and scattered weakly on the foredeck. Coupled with its slow movement when it docks, it is like a sea beast that has entered the twilight year.
But is the purpose of Roland Wimbledon Your Majesty in making this ship really just to show off?
Looking at the group of black guards quickly opening a passage from the crowd for the sailors on the boat to pass first, Manfred vaguely felt that things would not be so simple.
The commotion soon subsided, and the team resumed flow.
When it was his turn, the inspector simply checked his name and number and let him pass the checkpoint.
A man did n’t come forward until he was over 30 people, "I am the clerk of the Neverwinter Administration Office, Matt, who is temporarily responsible for your resettlement work. I believe you must have many questions. Do n’t worry, go On the way to the residential area, I will explain to you in detail. Now, please drink the purified water placed on the table here. It can cure the evil epidemic -- on your body. If not, it is also a sweet drink. "
"Does it have to follow you?" Someone questioned, "We are now a member of Greycastle's, we should go wherever we want to go?"
"Only after you have obtained your ID card, will it be Your Majesty's real citizen." Matt shook his head. "For the average person, it will take one to two years of hard work, and you must not violate the Greycastle law during this period .But you are all special talents with a skill, you can immediately become a formal resident of the city as long as you pass the examination of the heart. But the adults responsible for the examination are not always available, plus the number of applicants, so you have to wait two more Three days. "
"Ask? Isn't it censorship?"
"You will know when you have experienced it yourself," Matt smiled. "The audit is more important than your past. It is your present and future. I also passed this audit before I became the clerk of the Executive Office. . Now, please follow me after drinking water -- "
Nine times this is what the driver called "exception review of impossible lying," Manfred thought to himself.
Along the way, Matt did say that many migrants are most concerned about, such as what kind of work they can do in the future, what kind of treatment they can get, etc ... At least from the policy announced by King of Greycastle, they have achieved Migrants and locals in official status will not be treated differently.
The other person also used himself as an example to vividly tell the mental journey from the initial uneasiness to the gradual adaptation later, which made everyone's emotions more stable.
Just as a group of people entered the temporary residential area in the suburbs, a harsh laughter suddenly caught everyone's attention.
Manfred looked around, and saw a group of refugee-dressed men surrounding a woman and approaching her continuously. Many people around have noticed this scene, but none came forward to stop it. Some people are still coaxing and even showing a eager look.
Damn, you can run into this everywhere ...
He thought Neverwinter City would be different.
Manfred frowned, "Who will notify the black guard?"
From the previous introduction of Matt, it is known that the black men called police have replaced the original patrols. Although it is unknown whether they can be trusted, there seems to be no better way now.
However, no one moves. "I advise you not to worry about it, young people, we have to live here for a few days before moving to the inner city."
"Yes, if you are hated by this dregs, you will end up losing yourself."
"You guys --" he said endlessly, and finally looked at Matt, "I'll delay for a while, you quickly call the person in charge of public order!"
I didn't expect Matt grabbed his hand and shook his head slightly.
Manfred suddenly felt disappointed.
He shakes away the other side, saying, "I thought you and the other kingdoms are different. -- is my fault." Then he rolled up his sleeves and ran towards the crowd without looking back.
