Pirates: From the Planet to the Starry Sky

Chapter 48 Nobles
On the way, after two supplies, Ricky arrived at the target country, the island where the Skrull Kingdom and the Black Iron Kingdom are located.

The island where the two countries are located is one huge island.Except for the Kingdom of Skrull and the Kingdom of Black Iron, half of the island is occupied.

But the other half is forest, with mountains all over it.None of these wilderness areas have been developed. This kind of landform is also a good thing for Rich.

On a barren mountain not far from Skrull and the Dark Iron Kingdom, there is a half-moon-shaped bay at the foot of the mountain.

After Rich's transformation, the bay became a deep-water port, where ships were moored, and several outposts were built to station soldiers and prevent artillery.

And on the road leading to the top of the mountain, there are also some outposts for guarding soldiers.

On top of the hill, Richie leveled the hill and built a castle and a huge airfield for airships.

After stabilizing here, three days later, with the return of the investigation team, the situation here was generally clear, and Rich also set off with a team of people.

The first stop was a small remote town near the Kingdom of Skrull.

This small city is called Lite City, and it is the fiefdom of the Baron Lite family of the Kingdom of Skrull.

Before, Rich's envoy had already handed over gifts and invitations.

This time, Richie wanted to meet with Baron Lite to discuss matters related to Richie.

When the wagon team passed through the forest and walked on the country road, on both sides of the road, there were sallow and emaciated farmers plowing the fields.

On both sides of the road, there are scattered corpses. From the appearance of the corpses, they are all civilians. Moreover, the clothes on their bodies are tattered, and it seems that they have not been changed for a long time.

"This is just a remote area of ​​the Skrull Kingdom, and there are refugees' bones, so what will happen to those big cities?"

Guessing in my heart, Richie's motorcade did not stop.However, among the team, a small group of soldiers went to various villages and towns with food to look for those refugees.

As the environment on both sides changes, the village turns into a town.The number of people has increased, but the number of refugees has also increased a lot.

Among them, Rich still saw some town guards driving these refugees away.

Therefore, among the team, a small team was divided again.

At the same time, Hela notified the rear, opened up a simple camp in the outskirts of the forest, and began to boil water and cook.

The carriage kept moving forward, and the scenery on both sides of the road was constantly changing. About an hour later, a wooden city wall appeared in front of it.

In the carriage, Richie, Hella and the disguised Nicole Robin are sitting here.

Looking at the refugees along the way, Hela frowned.

"Your Highness, how does such a country survive?"

"In this sea, there are virtuous kings who are supported by the people, and there are also tyrants, but such an environment is the norm in this world."

Rich sat across from Hella and Nicole Robin, explaining.

"The situation of our Rock Mountain Kingdom, I dare not say it is the only one, but it is also one of the few countries."

Then, Rich chuckled, looking at the environment outside the car window, with a hint of thought in his eyes, he said casually. "However, isn't this environment just right for us to recruit refugees?"

On the side, Nicole Robin was also thoughtful.

Knowing Nicole Robin's identity and situation, Rich didn't hide anything from Nicole Robin.

These days, apart from exercising and learning knowledge, Nicole Robin also saw some trivial matters handled by Hela, and began to try to deal with them.

Just from these affairs, Nicole Robin saw Rich and the general situation of the Rock Mountain Kingdom, and knew what kind of person Rich was.

Rich also did not hide the purpose of going to sea.Nicole Robin was also very surprised when she learned that Rich was here to recruit refugees.

However, Rich recruited refugees and developed national power. The appearance of such a future virtuous king actually made Nicole Robin have a good impression of Rich.

"So, such a world needs to change." Rich said.

The carriage entered the city, and in the center of the city was a rock castle built against a mountain, where was the castle of Baron Leete.

Entering the city, on the streets on both sides, you can also see groups of refugees hiding in the corners of the city, or picking up garbage, or begging.

It seemed that there were too many of these refugees. The soldiers patrolling along the way didn't raise their chins, yelled, kicked the refugees who blocked the way, and stepped on them.

"call--."

Looking at this scene, the kind-hearted Li Qi held back the excitement in his heart and thought to himself.

"Why doesn't such a country die, and the world government is nothing more than that."

Coming from Blue Star, Liqi, who grew up in a peaceful era, has a little bit of kindness in his heart.If it wasn't for a peaceful country like the Rock Mountain Kingdom, then Rich would probably have gone out to sea to become a pirate, or rebelled.

They walked unhurriedly all the way to the gate of the castle. Since they had already handed over the greeting card before, the carriage entered the castle under the leadership of the soldiers.

Inside the castle, Richie, Hella, and Nicole Robin got out of the carriage.Here is an open space inside the castle.

In the middle of the open space is a road paved with carved stone bricks.On both sides of the road, there are all kinds of gorgeous flowers, many of which are valuable varieties.

Following a butler in the castle, Richie walked into the castle.

Inside the castle, the floor was covered with blankets, and there was no sound when walking up.The tall oil paintings on both sides, as well as the treasures placed in the glass boxes, all show the identity of the owner of the castle.

In a drawing room of the castle, Rich met this generation of Baron Leete.

Baron Li Te, who was sitting on the sofa, was only about 1.7 meters tall, but he was sitting on the sofa like a ball, with the flesh on his body spread out to both sides.

On the greasy face, a pair of almost invisible small eyes flickered with a trace of light, looking at Richie.

When he saw Hella following Richie, his eyes stopped for a while, but after changing his appearance, the ordinary-looking Nicole Robin didn't attract Baron Lite's attention.

"Hello."

Seeing Rich, the baron smiled and stretched out his hand, motioning for Rich to sit down.

"Hello."

Richie saw the lord of this small town, Baron Leete, with a smile on his face.After Rich sat down, Hella and Nicole Robin stood behind Rich.

"I heard that you are nobles from other kingdoms."

According to the situation of the Kingdom of Skrull and the Kingdom of Black Iron, if it is an ordinary caravan, it will easily arouse the greed of these nobles.

At that time, it will be very troublesome. Although Richie is not afraid of these troubles, it will be difficult to deal with the attention of the world government or the navy. Crack your wrist and reappear.

Therefore, in the face of nobles in these countries, the status of nobles is also needed, so the status of Prince Rich is useful.
