Human Online Survival [Infrastructure]

At this time, Chi Xian also came out. Seeing the faces of the middle-aged man and the others who were speechless, he asked casually, "What's wrong?"

"grown ups?"

Middle-aged man: "No, cough, nothing."

He quickly withdrew his gaze from Liang Hongjun and the others.

Then he remembered that there was one more important thing they hadn't figured out.

"We're thinking about these beasts."

Chi Xian: "What's wrong?"

The middle-aged man frowned: "These wild beasts are ordinary beasts. Logically speaking, they should not take the initiative to attack human villages in groups."

"What's more, there are all kinds of beasts, even vultures and leopards. They are natural enemies, so how could they join forces to attack our village?"

Hearing this, Chi Xian frowned.

At this time, the tall and thin man seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly said: "I remembered, among the wild beasts that besieged our village today, tigers and wolves seem to be the majority?"

"Tiger wolf beast?"

The middle-aged man suddenly realized: "Could it be that the tiger wolf herd in the Death Valley wanted to take revenge on us, so while you were away, they gathered a group of wild beasts to besiege our village, and wanted to wipe us all out first?"

This can explain why these wild beasts suddenly came to attack their village, because the head wolf of the tiger wolf herd has evolved intelligence, so it is normal for it to have a heart of revenge against them.

The tall and thin man's expression immediately became dignified. He wanted to say that it was probably them, but before he could say anything, a wolf howled suddenly from outside the village.

They turned their heads suddenly, just in time to see a tigress with shiny and meticulously combed hair and scarlet eyes walking slowly towards them.

The face of the thin and tall man changed instantly: "It's it, the leader of that pack of tigers and wolves."

Xia Pengyue and others who were fighting in the internal organs also noticed its existence, and their faces turned pale subconsciously.

But in the next second, they reacted.

Chi Xian was right next to him, so they had nothing to be afraid of.

On the contrary, this tiger wolf——

Xia Pengyue: "Are you so arrogant!"

Knowing that Chi Xian was there, he still dared to come to him.

It even walked directly towards Chi Xian, even grinning as it walked.

It is conceivable what is waiting for it, I saw that Chi Xian stretched out his hand directly: "The Gale Art—"

Chief wolf: "..."

Chief wolf: "..."

Chief wolf: "..."

The alpha wolf was swept into the sky on the spot.

Fortunately, it was smart. Relying on its big size, it stepped on a big rock that was also caught in the tornado, jumped out with its strength, and then fell hard to the ground.

Chi Xian frowned slightly, and immediately shot out a few blasts.

Seeing seven or eight tornadoes rushing towards it.

The hair on its body stood up in an instant, and after glaring at Chi Xian fiercely, it turned around and ran away without hesitation, even those tornadoes couldn't keep up with it.

Seeing this scene, on a pine tree not far away, a cockatoo's eyes widened instantly.

In the next second, it flapped its wings and flew out.

"Boss Long spent a whole day grooming carefully, but he was still disgusted by that human being."

"Boss Long went to find that human to get back together, but was rejected by that human."

"The man ran with the ball again."

"Nine times out of ten this time, it's still septuplets."

……

And almost at the same time, Casta City, the City Lord's Mansion.

The black-haired and blue-eyed city lord was sitting in front of the round table. He was wearing a black cavalry suit. On the neckline and cuffs were gorgeous roses outlined with golden threads. He wore a pair of high military boots on his feet, and his waist The buckled belt was obviously made by the same craftsman, it was bright without a trace of stain, and vividly outlined the curves of his body.

Under his head, there were also a dozen officials of Casta City sitting upright.

"Hall... City Lord, all the taxes and food for Casta City this year have been collected, and there are only less than 20 gold coins and [-] catties of grain."

The tax officer, who was over seventy years old, adjusted his reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, his voice full of worry.

Although Casta City was once the third largest city in the eastern part of the empire, since the orc army pushed the front line under the city of Casta in one fell swoop 50 years ago, Casta City has been forced to become the forefront of the empire's defense against the invasion of orcs.

After 50 years, the residents of Casta City have dropped by [-]%, and [-]% of them died under the fangs and claws of the orcs. In addition, just two months ago, one month before they took office in Casta City, the orc army Just came here to loot once, which led to the withering of today's Casta City.

So the heavy burden on them can be imagined, the people need to appease, the damaged city walls need to be repaired, the city guards need to be recruited again, and the weapons need to be replaced with new ones. By the way, the City Lord’s Mansion still owes those low-level officials and soldiers half a year. salary...

If they couldn't handle these matters within three months, then the civilians in the city would have to wait until the next time the orc army came.

But this pile of piles, which one does not require money.

It can be said that the batch of tax and food they just collected can only last for a month at most.

The tax officer added: "But Bishop Ryan just sent someone to say that next month will be the [-]th birthday of His Majesty the Pope, and other cities are planning to hold grand celebrations on that day, and Casta City is no exception. Otherwise, it would be disrespectful to His Majesty the Pope."

"However, in the battle two months ago, the Knights of the Church suffered heavy losses in order to help Casta City resist the orc army, so the Church is unable to bear such a large amount of expenses on its own right now, otherwise, wait until the next time the orc army invades Cass In Tacheng, the Knights of the Church may not be of much help."

"Now the church needs the City Lord's Mansion to bear two-thirds of the expenses, which is [-] gold coins and [-] catties of grain."

"What? Twenty thousand gold coins and one hundred thousand catties of grain?"

"Why don't they just come and grab it?"

Hearing this, all the people present were angry.

"And what do you mean, otherwise, when the orc army invades Casta City next time, the Church Knights may not be able to help?"

"He is clearly threatening us. If we don't give money, we won't help Casta City resist the orc army."

"Did they forget that the faith tax collected by the Holy See from the common people is no less than the agricultural tax collected by us, which means that their current basic necessities are also provided by the common people of Casta City."

"Also, what is the Church Knights? In order to help Casta City resist the orc army, they suffered heavy losses? Obviously, the city guards were at the forefront of the defense at that time. The so-called Church Knights hid in the city until the orc army was exhausted. When it's time, they strike."

"The wine bag and rice bag, a group of wine bags and rice bags."

"If this is still in Guangming City, I have to take people directly to cut off their heads and hang them on street lamps."

Having said that, everyone fell silent.

Because this is no longer Bright City.

This is Casta City.

The city lord stopped turning the ring on his left index finger.

He lowered his eyebrows slightly: "I will discuss this matter with Bishop Ryan in person."

"Anything else?"

The tax official sighed: "No more."

City Lord: "Then come here today."

"Yes."

The tax official and others quickly withdrew.

However, the commander of the city guard stayed behind.

City Lord: "What's wrong?"

Commander: "Do you still remember yesterday morning, after you heard what happened to Tahe Village, you asked me to secretly send a batch of food and medicine there?"

"When I delivered the things there last night, I happened to hear a few patrolling villagers in their village discussing whether a foreigner who just arrived in their village a few days ago is the Son of God..."

"I suspect that the so-called outsider is also an explorer from Earth, and the people in Tahe Village have obviously been successfully brainwashed by him."

"City Master, do you need me to send someone to arrest him now?"

It was really that what the explorers from the earth who pretended to be sons of gods who had been arrested by the Holy See had done was so shocking that he had to be vigilant.

Probably feeling a little stuffy in the room, the city lord stood up and opened the window: "What did he do, why did the people in Tahe village choose to believe that he is really the son of God?"

Commander: "I heard that when the villagers in Tahe Village couldn't afford the money to buy medicines, he helped the villagers in Tahe Village hunt and kill a batch of prey... Later, he healed more than 20 seriously injured people in Tahe Village."

But this does not rule out his suspicion of ulterior motives. Maybe he did this just to gain the trust of the villagers in Tahe Village, and those arrested explorers did the same thing before revealing their true colors.

"The most important thing is that when he helped the villagers of Tahe Village hunt their prey, he used wind magic. When he treated the seriously injured in Tahe Village, he used light magic."

On Oscontinent, no one has ever been able to awaken two types of magic.

Even the Popes of all ages.

The city lord raised his eyebrows: "If you think about it this way, that person really looks like a son of God."

Just the next second, looking at the towering and magnificent church outside the window, and the low, dilapidated slums just across the street from the church, as if thinking of something, he suddenly sneered, his strong and tall eyebrows and eyes full of Sarcasm: "But Oscontinia no longer needs gods!"

Not to mention the Son of God.

Then he just said: "Don't worry about him, as long as he doesn't violate the laws of Casta City."

The commander frowned: "The city lord?"

The city lord turned to ask: "How is Huiman City now?"

Two months ago, a plague broke out in Huiman City.

Originally, the city lord of Huiman City had reached a cooperation with the earthlings, but after the earthlings researched the antidote for the plague, he went back on his word and sent people to kill those earthlings, and destroyed most of the antidote. Keep some of them and sell them to nobles in the city at a high price.

The commander was silent for a while, and only said: "Because those people on earth secretly sent several batches of antidote to Huiman City, most of the civilians in Huiman City survived, and the actions of the city lord, Earl Schuster, were also condemned." The other nobles in the city noticed, half a month later, he was sentenced to hang, and all his family members were sold into slaves."

The meaning of the city lord is actually very obvious.

That is to tell him that not all earthlings are bad.

So he didn't say anything, just saluted respectfully: "Yes."
