Master Tongtian

Chapter 237 The First Wave of Brotherhood Deserters (23)

A night of silence.

When he got up as usual the next day, and thinking back to his dream last night, Rosen felt that he had to quickly build the Crescent Town Temple to facilitate real-time communication between himself and God.

After thinking about it, I wrote a letter to the chief priest of Faao.

The letter states that the Crescent Town Temple will be completed within half a month at most, and it is hoped that the temple can send priests with various functions to preside over the temple.

Finally, I added, considering that Crescent Town is located on the edge of the Golden Land, adjacent to the Falling Snow Mountains, there are many battle injuries.

I hope there will be a permanent healing priest, if it is Vina, that would be the best.

After writing the letter, he handed it to the courier to be sent to Silver Moon Castle, and then started to have breakfast.

While eating, Harik ran in panting.

"Rosen, a large number of young people, both men and women, numbering more than 400, have arrived. They say they are here to work and earn money."

Rosen's eyes lit up: "Ah ha~~ I came just in time!"

There is no shortage of supplies now, there is no shortage of food for the time being, and wages can last for two weeks. The biggest shortage is manpower.

Although this group of young people is not many, it is a signal that there are deserters from the Brotherhood hiding in the mountains.

This also means that the propaganda work is effective. As long as the first wave of people accept it, it will only be a matter of time before the subsequent brotherhood collapses.

However, Rosen did not let down his guard.

He went out to the tent to find Shapolai and released lucky shields on each of them.

"Uncle, let's go, take two teams of Silver Moon Rangers, and let's go over and have a look."

"okay."

Xia Bolay called Hamiya and Watson, brought 20 fully armed Silver Moon Rangers, and followed Harik all the way down the high ground.

Soon, Rosen and others stood on the temporary city wall and saw the young people standing outside the wall who came to seek refuge.

They are indeed very young, with the average age in their mid-twenties and the oldest in their mid-thirties. There are men and women, with men accounting for about 70%.

Both men and women have strong temperaments, and most of them are quite honest, but some people have a coldness that is hard to hide in their eyes, and they don't look like they will work honestly at first glance.

At the same time, we can also find that every young man's face is full of vigilance, and his body is tense, as if he is ready to run away at any time.

Rosen can understand this mentality, because there have been many bad things in this world where lords lured robbers out of the mountain with good words, and then turned around and turned all the robbers into slaves.

If you do this kind of unscrupulous bad thing too often, everyone will become smarter, and it will also greatly damage the credibility of the lord class.

On the other side, Xia Bolai frowned and said softly to Rosen: "A few guys have blood on their hands, and there's a lot of it."

It is very possible that these few people with blood on their hands are the main force of the rebels who attacked Crescent Town and burned down the town administration building.

Rosen nodded to express his understanding and was mentally prepared for this, but he was ready to continue to fulfill his promise.

After that, as long as the other party truly repented, he would really forget the past.

But if you are not honest after coming to seek refuge, you should not pay much attention to it for the time being. Wait until the other party shows it on his own and makes people angry, and then you can deal with it in accordance with public opinion.

In this way, it not only followed the original promise, gained credibility, but also greatly enhanced the reputation of the people in the territory.

So, he took a step forward, pointed at Chabolai, and began to introduce step by step.

"This is the new lord of Crescent Town, the nephew of Count Omicia, Chabolai Omicia."

"I am Rosen. I am an intermediate divine grace mage and the mayor of Crescent Town. I will rebuild Crescent Town for Lord Shabolai."

After introducing himself, he looked around at the group of young people in front of him, closely observing the reactions of the young people in the city.

"The lord said that as long as you are willing to work honestly and abide by the laws of Silver Moon Castle and Crescent Town, forget about what happened before."

"Not only will we not pursue the case, we will also distribute fields, tools, seeds and enough food to you to survive this cold winter, so that you can resettle in the Crescent Territory."

The young people were silent, and the tense expressions on their faces relaxed slightly.

Rosen continued: "I know you must be murmuring in your hearts, fearing that we will amend the content of the law at any time. But I want to say that this will never happen easily."

"Next, I will read out the content of the Crescent Town ordinance. It will not be revised for a long time. Even if it needs to be revised, a town meeting will be held, and everyone will discuss and decide on the specific content of the revision."

Afterwards, Rosen took out a beautifully bound scroll and began to read out the Crescent Town decrees one by one.

The content of the law is not much, and the language is straightforward and easy to understand. For example, killing is punished with life, robbery is punished by hanging, and theft is punished with hard labor.

After finishing reading, Rosen looked around at the young people who came to seek refuge.

"So, everyone, tell me your choice?"

The young people looked at me and I looked at you, and they began to discuss in whispers.

After a while, a man in his early thirties walked out.

This man was very strong, with a stout body that was cultivated by working frequently in the fields, and there were thick calluses on his fingers. He had regular features, a gentle expression, and his eyes were shrewd but not cold.

He said angrily: "It's as good as what the previous lord said, but I don't know if you will be as cheating as the previous lord. So, why should we believe you?"

Chabolai became proficient this time and immediately swore an oath in the name of the Golden God.

But just as he finished speaking, a strange voice sounded from the crowd.

"The Golden God is not a benevolent God, nor is he an honest God. What is the difference between swearing in his name and farting?"

This is too inflammatory.

Xia Bolai frowned and shouted coldly.

"Who is blaspheming the Golden God?!"

The strong man from before also frowned, turned his head angrily and shouted to the crowd.

"Who is hiding in there talking nonsense? If you have something to say, come out and say it to your face!"

The crowd was silent, no one responded.

This detail moved Rosen's heart.

‘Since these are the first batch of people to escape from the Brotherhood, most of them must really want to live a stable life, and they must be careful when escaping, and will try their best to avoid the eyes and ears of the Brotherhood’s top brass.'

Therefore, there is a high probability that this instigator was not arranged by the top brass of the Brotherhood, so there is only one answer.

This guy is probably a lackey arranged hastily by the master behind the scenes, and his working ability is very average.

Rosen opened the adventure diary and played it back, and then he found the troublemaker in the crowd. He was a man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. His eyes were cold and stern. At first glance, it seemed that he was not a guy who could live a quiet life.

He stared at the man from a distance and said with a faint smile: "Man, don't hide, stand up and tell us why you blasphemed the Golden God in front of everyone."

The man's eyes suddenly showed a trace of panic, and he shrank a few times. Seeing that he could not escape Rosen's gaze, he knew that he had been exposed, so he gritted his teeth and shouted.

"Brothers, none of the gentlemen in Silver Moon Castle is a good person. You must not believe what they say!"

As soon as Rosen thought, a super-high polarity gravitational ball flew past silently.

The man immediately floated six meters high in the crowd.

It was obvious that he was panicked, but not desperate.

His body immediately glowed red, and at the same time he reached out and took out the rune stone and pinched it hard.

‘Buzz~’

The rune stone exploded, and his body immediately dropped from five meters to three meters, but he was still floating in the air.

The rune stone is not powerful enough to dispel Rosen's gravity spell.

And his action directly proved Rosen's guess. The mastermind behind it was indeed the high-level mage who controlled Lava Diego the night before.

There is reason to believe that the other party must arrange more than one.

Rosen didn't take action and just said loudly: "Guys, as you can see, this guy is a warrior and he is not the same as you at all."

The strong man hurriedly explained: "This is a stranger. I don't know him. I don't know when he got into the team."

Rosen nodded: "I believe you."

The strong man suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you mayor for your trust."

He led everyone to escape from the mountain this time and was under tremendous psychological pressure.

He was afraid of bringing these fellow villagers who trusted him into a new fire pit.

But now it seems that the new lord is doing well.

On the other side, having easily suppressed the secret instigator, Rosen asked loudly: "So, do you accept the conditions of Crescent Town?"

The strong man was the first to nod: "I accept."

Rosen asked: "Very good. What's your name?"

"My name is Akun, the reckless Akun, and that is my mother-in-law, Lisa. We all want to live a good life, but the former lord really doesn't give people a way to survive."

"The Brotherhood said they wanted everyone to live a good life, but they actually followed them into the mountains to become robbers. None of us want to be robbers."

As he was speaking, a sturdy woman walked out of the crowd, stood next to Akun, and took his arm.

Rosen then said to the magistrate Grimman: "Register them all."

He also gave orders to the clerk Quintus, the land officer Gaius, and the warehouse officer Vera one by one. After completing a complete set of procedures, the rough man Akun and Lisa became the free owners of land property in the Crescent Territory. civil.

Immediately afterwards, the divided land contract, farm tools for reclamation, winter food and cold clothing were all distributed to Akun.

The couple was very excited. They took the newly received hoe and sickle and inspected it carefully. After inspecting it, they turned to the other young people and shouted.

"The lord did not lie. These guys are very good at what they do. The blades are made of good steel and can be used for many years."

Immediately, the young man who came to seek refuge felt completely relaxed and began to actively sign up with Griman.

Rosen also took the opportunity to shout: "These supplies are free. They are not only to make up for the mistakes of the previous lord, but also the grace of the current lord Charbolai."

"As the new lord, Lord Chabolai is kind, generous and generous. He sincerely hopes that the people in the territory can live a stable and prosperous life."

Rosen preached loudly and put gold on Xia Bolai's face, which made Xia Bolai's face feel a little hot.

But real things were distributed, especially food and clothing, without any pretense, and all the young people immediately felt the sincerity of the new lord.

"I, Joe, often feel sleepy. People call me Sleepy Joe, but I am very strong. I will join Crescent Town too!"

"And me, Larry, Bachelor Larry."

Young people began to join Crescent Town quickly.

There is no need for Rosen to give orders for the rest of the matter. Deputy Mayor Harrick will be responsible for it.

He watched carefully for a while and realized that most of them should be honest and responsible, but there were also a few who were honest on the surface, but had twinkling eyes, and they must have some bad intentions inside.

‘I guess the mage wants to explore the secret of petrification. Just watch it if you want. If you can crack it, you are considered great. ’

If he dares to use it, he is not afraid to look at it.

He doesn't criticize these people, but focuses on supervision.

More than 400 young people, as the registration work progresses, materials are distributed one by one. .

During this time, the others were not idle.

According to the Rosen plan, the first thing to be built was the town wall.

With the cooperation of the citizens and mages, the terrifying 15-meter-high and 15-meter-thick wall has been built in half a day, covering a total length of 400 meters. The progress is astonishingly fast.

It is obvious that the young people who have recently joined us are greatly shocked by the terrifying construction speed.

As for those guys with ulterior motives, their eyes were filled with confusion and uncertainty, and they found various reasons to frequently observe the construction site.

All this was seen by the Silver Moon Rangers.

As for Rosen, he naturally wouldn't pay attention to such trivial matters all day long. He had already returned to the mayor's tent to work on magic.

At noon, someone came to Silver Moon Castle, it was Lilith who was responsible for doing business with Candela.

She disguised herself as a man and took a detour all the way north from Maple Leaf Town in Bielgu.

After meeting Rosen, she got straight to the point.

"Master, there is a request for a custom painting from Raging Waves City in the East. The person who made the request is very high-profile, the bid is very high, and the requirements are also very high!"

After three hits in a row, Rosen guessed: "It can't be the Storm Duke, right?"

But without thinking, Lilith shook her head: "Half of it is right."
