Chapter 95 The road ahead is long [2/7]
【ps: Second update! There are five more to come! 】
Rathod is different from Ragnar. Although they are both sons of Ragnar IV, Rathod is an illegitimate son, while Ragnar is a legitimate prince. Moreover, compared with the two, Rathod is too ordinary and is undoubtedly a mediocre person.
“What are all those people doing in front of us?”
Rathod looked at the crowd gathered at the border post in front of him and asked in confusion.
“They should be gathering refugees. After all, the Kingdom of Lot and the Kingdom of Qisi were destroyed by the Orc Empire, so the Kingdom of Los is gathering their people.”
A young nobleman said what he heard along the way.
They have been traveling for more than a month, so their understanding of the Kingdom of Los is just what they heard along the way.
“People from the Lot Kingdom and the Qisi Kingdom, this is a great opportunity!”
“We can blend in with the refugees and enter the Kingdom of Los.”
Lathod was delighted and said
”
This is a good idea. Well, let ‘s disguise ourselves immediately.���They now looked very tired and haggard. They cut their clothes with knives to make them look tattered. Less than ten of them disguised themselves as refugees and walked towards the outpost. After blending into the refugee group, Lathod and his group quietly waited for an opportunity.
Although they”blended in” the refugee group, their pride and extraordinary upbringing as descendants of nobles, as well as the fact that they had learned magic, although only at a half-baked level, made them subconsciously keep some distance from the refugees.
At this time, a Los soldier came over and immediately attracted Lathod’s attention.
“The soldiers are wearing fancy clothes, and what are they holding? Such short spears.”
Lathod snorted softly. No matter what it is from the Los Kingdom, he doesn’t like it.
Especially the soldiers in the army, who are the main targets of hatred of Lathod and others.
“This Los soldier, judging by his appearance, is a Nord.”
The noble young man next to him whispered
“Humph, traitor, shame on the Nords”
“Yes, traitors.”
Everyone else whispered.
They only dared to whisper in this situation.
But at this time, one of them whispered:”Actually, the clothes they wear are quite handsome. The fabric looks so high-quality.”
Then this person was glared at by everyone including Rathod.
The man immediately shut up.
“”Is there anyone among you who is a craftsman?”
The soldier asked as a routine question.
Soon, someone raised his hand, and then they were taken away from the crowd. Then the soldier asked about other skilled trades.
Doctors, merchants, even gardeners and tailors were asked one by one.
The number of refugees gradually decreased, and soon, only Rathod and a group of refugees who were poor farmers and serfs were left.
“Sir.”
At this time an officer came over and the soldier immediately saluted.
“Take them all away. The kingdom has recently expanded a new area of land and established a grain production base. Allocate them to the land for farming.
The officer lit a cigarette and said to the soldier.
“Yes.”
The Los soldier saluted.
“What? You asked us to farm the land. Are you treating us like the untouchables?”
“We are not pariahs……”
Upon hearing this, they immediately became restless.
Rathod said to them,”Although we are not willing to be treated as untouchables, you guys, we need to be patient now, and this is also a good opportunity. As long as we lower ourselves to contact those people at the bottom and win their hearts, we can directly control the food production base, which will be very beneficial for our uprising in the future!”
“Rathod is right. Food is essential for the uprising and the establishment of an army.
Someone nodded in agreement.
Soon, a military vehicle drove over.
This military vehicle was in the form of a truck. The cargo box at the back was wrapped in iron sheets. The back door was open at this moment.
“What is this thing?”
One person said in horror.
“Everyone, get on board.”
Under the command of the soldiers, the refugees boarded the trucks with hesitation and a hint of fear.
“It’s over! These damn guys, they are not going to use us to feed this steel monster!”
“The Los people have such steel monsters. No wonder our army can’t defeat them.”
“Damn the Los people, they actually fed humans to the monsters!”
They all looked terrified, and said in panic
“”Lathod! What should we do? Are we going to be fed to the monsters by the Los people? I don’t want to be eaten when I die!”
A young man almost cried.
They were a group of people who had never seen anything.
They thought they were facing a life-and-death crisis, and they were immediately panicked.
“Don’t panic!”
Lathod looked at the huge steel monster, and he felt his legs go weak.
Such a steel monster would probably not make any noise if hit by fireball.
He regretted in his heart that he should not have come earlier. He had to face such danger as soon as he arrived.
Although he was panicking in his heart, he still pretended to be calm, took a deep breath, and kept reminding himself in his heart:”Lathod, you are the leader of the Nord Restoration Society now, calm down, calm down, there is nothing to be afraid of!”
“Why don’t you get in the car? Get in the car.”
At this time, a Los soldier looked at them strangely and said
“May I ask this soldier what we are going to do?”
Rathod forced himself to calm down and asked the soldier
“Oh, you have never seen a car, so it’s normal to be afraid. This is called a truck, a means of transportation. You will get on it and it will take you to your destination.”
The soldier patted Rathod on the shoulder and said,”Don’t worry, you will not suffer when you arrive in the Kingdom of Los. When you arrive at the food production base, if you perform well, you will be allocated a part of the land, and you will be able to live a prosperous life.”
Finally, the soldier saluted all the refugees, including Rathod, and said,”Welcome to the Kingdom of Los. We will be a family from now on.” When the refugees heard the soldier’s words, they remembered the hardships they had suffered along the way and the separation of life and death from their families. Now they were treated preferentially in the Kingdom of Los. They couldn’t help crying.
Rathod realized in his heart that this truck was not a monster.
However….You call this thing made of steel a car?
Is the Los Kingdom so powerful? Using this precious magical vehicle to transport these untouchables.
Rathod suddenly became alert, and at the same time he felt that his future rebellion would be long and difficult.
