MTL - Weird Wizarding World-Chapter 423 wandering serf
Kingdom of Loen, golden ears of wheat.
Today's weather is not good. Although there is no rain, the blue sky is covered by continuous dark clouds, which is a bit cloudy.
However, the weather has no emotions, whether it is bright or dark, it is all given by people.
At least the weather is not good today, but the members of the Loen family all look joyful.
A grand celebration is being held at the Loen Palace.
"Your Majesty, it's time to prepare to ascend the throne." Wearing a gorgeous white witch robe, Joe said to Jennifer beside him.
The young girl is dressed up today, and the custom-made complex platinum robe adds a bit of majesty and charm to her immature face, like a rose in full bloom in spring.
In the golden palace, all the officials stood with their heads bowed, and the guard of honor clenched the spears in their hands.
Jennifer took a breath, and walked towards the golden throne.
boom!
Bang bang bang!
Witchcraft salutes roared, and under the starry golden light belt, Colin put a triangular laurel crown symbolizing royal power on Jennifer in front of the throne.
Establishing Jennifer as king is what he meant.
He needs someone to manage the Loen Kingdom, or the mortal affairs of the entire Tilemei Plain.
This is an important position that requires a trustworthy and capable person.
After much deliberation, Jennifer is the best candidate.
This girl left a good impression on him, and if she becomes queen, the Loen family behind her will naturally assist her in management.
As a family that has ruled this land for thousands of years, Colin doesn't think anyone else is more suitable for this position than them.
As for Mentor Atbold and Senior Lilian, he has more important things for them.
…
After the celebration.
Colin finally had time to count the gifts he received during this period.
Managing the Tilaimei Plain is important, but in this world where great power belongs to itself, strength is the top priority.
Not to mention that it is now a time of war, no one knows what the future holds, and there is no room for relaxation.
Although there are many gifts, it is a pity that after counting them, there are only two things that are useful to him who is currently a third-order person.
One is the knowledge crystal presented by Leopold, the leader of the Tin Holy School, which contains a third-order combined witchcraft called "Lava".
The other was the last gift that Noyce gave him when he left. It was a flying witch named Silver Stream. It consumed very low mana while cruising, but its speed could reach 1.5 times the speed of sound—about three orders faster than ordinary Junior wizards fly faster, and can explode at a speed of about Mach 3 in a short period of time, which is very useful whether they are rushing or escaping.
Silver stream is a group of silver streamers with an indeterminate shape. It can be stored as a silver pendant at ordinary times. When in use, it will directly cover Colin's body, and then elongate into a shuttle shape like a spaceship, leading the user forward.
After a brief trial, Colin thanked Noyce again in his heart, then put away Yinliu, and checked the combined witchcraft-lava sent by Leopold.
This witchcraft has a simple name, but it is a combined offensive and defensive witchcraft.
When attacking, it can erupt like a volcano, ejecting hot red streams, and when defending, it can condense a layer of flowing lava defense around the body, which has a strong defense ability against elemental attacks, especially flame attacks.
I don't know if Leopold was handpicked, but this witchcraft is obviously very suitable for Colin today.
For Colin, who is now a member of parliament, there is no need to worry about the knowledge related to meditation, but witchcraft and the like still need council points to exchange.
The way to obtain Supreme Council points is not much different from the way to obtain contribution points in schools. It can be by completing council tasks or handing in knowledge.
Of course, the premise must be a member of the Supreme Council.
It is very difficult for non-members of parliament to obtain parliamentary points, and it is only in this war period that they can obtain some by killing gods and believers.
If Colin had been a member of parliament from the beginning, there would be no shortage of points for his contribution now.
But he was just a half-blood wizard, and all his previous contributions were exhausted after he was exchanged for the status of a supreme council member.
So after the badge awarding ceremony, Colin suddenly found that he didn't have enough points to exchange for the third-level witchcraft.
In fact, on the island of Gupil a long time ago, he actually snatched the emblems of many **** believers from Margaret.
That can be exchanged for points of the Supreme Council, but because of Margaret's death, those divine emblems have already been destroyed by him.
However, even if it is kept until now, I am afraid that it cannot be exchanged rashly... Colin knows that his current position is hard-won, and he does not want to leave the pure-blood families with a handle to attack.
So after searching his guts and handing in all the knowledge of witchcraft and witchcraft that could be handed in, Colin could barely get enough contribution points to exchange for a third-order witchcraft.
After careful consideration, he exchanged for a spiritual witchcraft called Radiance Fortified Wall, which also took into account both defense and attack.
However, the main reason why Colin chose it is that it can enhance the resistance to filthy raving.
And this is crucial to future plans.
After checking his own situation, Colin did not delay and came to Loen Palace again.
The celebration of Jennifer's accession to the throne swept away the sadness brought by yesterday's funeral, and the palace was decorated with lights and festoons, showing a joyful look.
However, the outside of the palace, which was separated by a wall, was bleak. Colin saw at least five serfs kneeling on the street begging during the distance he flew from the wizard tower to the palace.
The impact of farmland pollution has gradually appeared throughout the Tilaimei Plain.
…
"The Sidney family is going to leave the Tilemei Plain?" Colin frowned.
Came to the queen's study, Jennifer first reported a piece of news to him.
"Yes, just now Harris asked me to tell you about it." Jennifer continued.
After pondering for a moment, Colin thought about it: "The Sidney family can leave if they want.
But tell him that all the property and all the wealth of the family must stay, otherwise he will continue to be prosecuted for the crime of usurping the throne. "
The place managed by the councilor is not a real territory after all, so nobles and even ordinary people living in the management area have the right to leave and move to other places at any time. This is the rule set by the Supreme Council, and Colin can't change it naturally.
But for the Sidney family who tried to usurp the throne yesterday, he has reasons to restrict its departure.
But it is meaningless to do that. Even if all the Sidney family are locked up, it is just a waste of manpower and food.
As for forcing him to stay and do things... Colin is more worried about them getting in the way.
His next plan is not to use these traditional wizard nobles, it is better to use this to clean up the wealth of the Sidney family.
What's more, although the councilor has great power, it doesn't mean he can do whatever he wants, and he can't turn Harris, a second-tier wizard, into his slave.
"All the wealth?" Jennifer was stunned.
"When I want them to leave, among the things they carry with them, there are only a week's rations at most, and necessities such as clothing."
Colin doesn't think this is a harsh condition.
As long as Harris is a smart person, he should know that he is kind enough. Compared with the Sidney family and him as a second-order wizard, those wealth are really nothing to mention.
"Okay, get ready. I'll take you to inspect the entire Tilaimei Plain while it's still early."
The matter of the Sidney family is dealt with here for the time being, Colin continued.
"Okay." Jennifer was taken aback for a moment, but quickly nodded without any hesitation.
Wearing a black robe, Qiao stood quietly behind her like a silent shadow. Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
This visit to the Tilemei Plain may take half a day to return, but it may also take several days. Before coming, Colin had already told Atbold and Lilian that after Joe finished notifying the Ruen family, the three of them would Immediately set off.
Among the long silver shuttle, Colin's complexion was as serious as a sculpture, and Jennifer and Joe sat quietly behind him.
No matter what you do, understanding is the first step, and the management of the Tilaimei Plain is no exception. He urgently needs to grasp the current situation of the entire plain.
About five minutes later, they arrived at the first destination of the trip - the Kingdom of Burley.
There are seven kingdoms in the entire Tilaimei Plain, the Loen Kingdom is located in the center, and the remaining six smaller kingdoms are evenly distributed around.
Borley is a kingdom located in the southeast of Loen Kingdom, and it is also the closest kingdom.
It was still afternoon, and the weather was a bit muggy.
The stone brick square in the center of Xinnan City, the capital of Bolai King, was crowded with people in ragged clothes. It was black and dense, and the smell of sweat mixed with foot odor and fermented excrement and urine came to the face, which made people feel sick.
Borley King Matt stood on the high platform at the front of the square, facing the stench, loudly comforting the serf in front of him, and the sweat soon fell from his forehead.
At this moment, Colin fell from the sky, not only startled Matt, but also scared Cook, the second-order wizard who is the real controller of Burley behind Matt.
Although the seven kingdoms are now independent of each other, they were all ruled by the Loen family earlier, and each king had a communication ring tower to communicate with each other.
It’s just that under the attack of the gods, all the communication ring towers have been destroyed and have not been repaired, so there is no sign of Colin coming this time.
Colin didn't talk nonsense, he showed the ring of Tilemie in his hand, and asked in a deep voice:
"How is this going?"
Matt was still a little confused, but Cook behind him had already recognized the ring, and quickly bowed to greet him:
"Honorable Lord Tilamy, good afternoon."
"We are serving porridge to the serfs."
Porridge... Colin turned around, seemed to think of something, then pointed to Jennifer next to him and said:
"This is the queen of the Loen Kingdom. From now on, your six countries will continue to be under the control of the Loen Kingdom."
"…yes."
Cook stared blankly at the girl in front of him, but still lowered his head, and brought Matt next to him to say hello to the future queen.
Jennifer accepted the salute of the two calmly, with an elegant manner, without any embarrassment.
The shadowy Joe behind her was still silent, but with mixed feelings in her heart.
When Uncle Erwin was still there... his greatest wish was to get the six nations to bow down again besides finding the inheritance of the Loen family.
And such a wish is now easily realized.
"These serfs, what exactly is going on?" Colin continued to ask.
It stands to reason that in the face of his arrival, the serfs in the audience would at least look up a few times, but in fact they didn't care about the changes on the high platform at all.
Everyone stared straight ahead, only those knights who were serving porridge in their eyes.
Even the porridge knights with their backs to the high platform have not noticed the changes on the platform.
"The farmland was polluted, and the nobles didn't want to afford the food for these serfs, so they drove them out." Matt answered first, and couldn't help sighing.
"Yes, my lord, these serfs had a few riots a few days ago, and many slaves died." Cook added.
Colin Moran, in fact, similar things happened in Loen Kingdom.
The nobles of the Tilaimei Plain basically lived on farmland, so they kept a large number of serfs in their hands.
In the past, it was easy to say that with a lot of fields and a lot of food, raising these serfs was no more than a trivial matter.
But now the farmland is ruined, and there will be no hope of recovery for a while.
Food became more and more precious, and raising these serfs became a money-losing business, and many nobles were unwilling to do these money-losing "businesses" anymore.
"Are you going to keep giving porridge like this?"
"I don't know, my lord...we just take one step at a time." Matt sighed.
Everyone knows that serving porridge like this is just a stopgap measure, but what can be done?
Could it be that the nobles are forbidden to drive away their serfs?
If such an order is true, news of various accidental deaths of serfs will come the next day.
Of course, there is one more thing Matt didn't say.
In fact, they still have a hope—if they can delay until the arrival of the new Lord of Tilemei, such problems may be solved by him.
Colin continued to look at the audience.
Although most of the serfs were listless and dirty, at least they were not skinny and barely alive.
Colin also keenly noticed that when the porridge delivery knight encountered a serf with a child, he would deliberately get more dry.
"Good job." Colin turned around and praised, but there was a haze in his heart.
Borley Kingdom is such a scene, and the other five countries with similar situation are probably facing the same problem.
While the Burleigh Kingdom chose to give out porridge relief, this may not be the case for other kingdoms.
Through this thought, Colin suddenly felt a sense of urgency. After pondering for a moment, he continued to the two of Jennifer:
"Let's go, let's go to the next kingdom."
'Are you leaving? '
Matt and Matt were taken aback for a moment, feeling inexplicably disappointed.
"Continue to distribute porridge and try to ensure that the serfs do not starve to death."
"Also, the summer is hot, so pay attention to prevent the breeding of diseases among the serfs."
However, in the light of the silver stream, Colin's voice suddenly came.
"Yes!" Matt and Cook nodded quickly.
Looking at each other, there seems to be a faint hope born in the hearts of the two...
