Autumnfall.
When the first batch of believers was safely sent away, the priests of the half-elf church returned to Autumnfall with a lot of food. There was a new atmosphere brewing in the city that had been trapped for a long time. The food brought back by the priests was very rich. In addition to high-quality wheat from the south, there was also a lot of bacon, bacon, and salted fish. Most of them were meat. The number of salted fish was very abundant. Many civilians were given some fish. This was the first time they had tasted meat in a long time.
Søren estimated that the last thing they lacked was fish.
The location of Modor was on the fish migration route. If anyone had seen the migration of fish, they would know what a spectacular scene it was. As for salt, it was not a problem. This simple thing could not stop Søren. If there was no salt in the sea, it would be a joke. Originally, Søren wanted to make food similar to fish floss, but because he was too busy and had no energy to craft, he could only put it aside for the time being.
As time passed, the direction of Autumnfall was also changing. More and more civilians wanted to leave this dangerous place.
Because there was not much food in the city.
If the orcs did not retreat, they would not be able to produce and work. It was difficult for an ordinary civilian to resist natural disasters. Once they were affected by the war, they would be completely destroyed.
The number of believers was increasing.
The priests actively mobilized civilians to leave here. More and more people were affected, and the situation in the city was becoming more and more strange.
…
In the splendid hall.
Many people in noble clothes gathered here. There were already many people outside who could not fill their stomachs, but there was plenty of food and even good wine here.
Nobles and civilians were always in two different worlds. The power they held was too convenient.
"Did they really defeat the orcs?"
There was a man with a cold face at the top of the hall. He looked at the others in front of him and slowly said, "I didn't expect them to be able to defeat Eugene! If this goes on, I'm afraid that group of untouchables will be easily bewitched! … "
An old man looked at him and slowly said, "I don't know if we can ask them to help us deal with the orc army?"
One of the middle-aged men shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's difficult."
"Since they intend to migrate their believers, it is obvious that they intend to give up here. Otherwise, they would not give up the church's property. I don't think it's possible to persuade them to fight against the orcs. "
Naturally, the Church also had its own assets.
The half elf church decisively gave up on farmland, temple, real estate, and so on. They had no plans to stay here at all.
"Should we stop them?" One of them asked in a deep voice.
The old man turned around and glared at him. "Idiot! Are you trying to split the city and start a war? Moreover, most of the people they took away were civilians. Many of them were old, weak, women, and children. They had no fighting power at all. "
"The army is still in our hands."
"As long as the army doesn't leave, we won't lose any of our strength. Those civilians are just a burden to us, a waste of food for no reason."
"The army must remain stable!"
"We can't let any of the warriors leave. If they want to take away the old, the weak, the women and the children, then let them."
Everyone fell silent.
They could not go to war with the church, nor could they stop them blatantly. After all, there was a god behind the other side. The situation in Luoye City absolutely did not allow them to anger the god and make things worse. In this case, they were bound to do anything. They could only secretly make some small moves. Although the priests of the church still couldn't use magic, they were also high-grade warriors without magic. They had a high influence in Luoye City. If they were directly targeted, the situation in Luoye City would collapse.
At this moment.
A middle-aged man who was obviously dressed as Druil stood up and slowly said, "If it's just sending the civilians to a safe place, it may not be a bad thing. After all, it's difficult for us to defeat the orcs in a short time. It's going to be autumn soon. We've lost a lot of fields. These civilians will increase our burden if they stay here. "
"If they leave, the food will be left for our warriors!"
"His Excellency [Earth Walker] has given us a response. As long as we can hold on until June, his Excellency will come to support us! "
Earth Walker?
Hearing the middle-aged Druil's words, the nobles present could not help but stand up in surprise.
"Really?"
"His Excellency is really willing to help us?"
"This is great!"
There was a sound of surprise.
The middle-aged Druil glanced at the others present and nodded. "Some time ago, his Excellency led the Druil Order to look for something important. Now he's coming back. This Excellency is a kind and generous elder. He will certainly not sit back and watch the orcs ravage our land. As long as his Excellency is willing to help, we will definitely defeat Eugene's orc army. "
Earth Walker.
One of the most knowledgeable and powerful Druil!
It was impossible to determine how high his profession level was, but he had been in the legendary realm for hundreds of years.
He was the leader of the [Earth Doctrine] in the Druil Order. He had been living in seclusion in the depths of the Elven Forest and rarely intervened in the affairs of ordinary people. However, the current situation in Luoye City seemed to make this Excellency intend to help. There were many Druil among the half-elves. They also had their own voice in the Druil Order. The elves did not seem to intend to send troops to help, but if the Druil Order was willing to help them, it would be more useful than the elven reinforcements!
…
Time passed by day by day.
The first batch of believers was quickly sent away, and the pirate fleet returned to the vicinity of Luoye City again.
Søren's plan was carried out in an orderly manner. He only cared about his believers and did not intend to intervene in other things. The first batch of believers sent away more than five thousand people. The second batch of believers was much more. According to the recent statistics of the church, about twenty thousand civilians were willing to follow them. These were the civilians who originally believed in the church. They easily accepted the will of God. Those who chose to stay were those who did not want to leave their homes. Most of them were rich people who owned land.
Civilians had nothing in the war.
However, these people were not willing to give up their land. Even if it was now occupied by the orcs, as long as they repelled the orcs, they would regain everything.
The Noble Council asked Søren for a batch of food through the church. Søren thought about it and agreed to their request.
Nearly a month had passed.
The arrival of the Time of Troubles was getting closer and closer. He now had only seven months left, and then the Avatar Crisis would break out. Søren did not want to waste too much time here. The believers of the church were sent away in three batches. Søren's fleet was enough, and with Raging Sand Island as a transit station, there was no problem in transporting so many people back.
…
A gentle sea breeze blew in his face.
A warship docked at the dock of Raging Sand Island, and a crowd of people came out of the ship. Next to them was an army responsible for maintaining the situation.
"Sister! Slow down! "
Idu helped a young woman down from the deck. She was holding a half-grown baby in her arms. The little guy was very brave. He looked around with his big black eyes and was not afraid at all.
Finally, they set foot on the ground again.
Many people around revealed happy smiles. The priest's voice came into their ears, instructing them to stay here and rest for a while before continuing their journey. They did not know where they were going, but they did not panic about the future. It was as if there was an invisible force comforting their hearts and making them hopeful for the future. Some priests of the church also left with them. Although there was still no way to use divine spells, the healing ability of the priests could solve a lot of problems.
Along the way, they saw many ferocious pirates, but these pirates did not disturb them at all.
Order was brilliant.
The two sides were like two boundaries. They were just a group of travelers and would not stay here for too long. Along the way, they saw many law enforcement teams maintaining order. They were a group of very fierce guys. Occasionally, some daring guys wanted to take liberties with them, but they were directly hung up and whipped more than ten times.
There was a prepared camp on Raging Sand Island.
Many people were temporarily settled here. After resting for about two days, groups of people were sent away one after another.
At this time.
They saw not only pirates, but also merchant ships that were responsible for sending them to their destination.
It was really the fleet of the Chamber of Commerce.
George tried to chat with the guards of the fleet and easily inquired about their origin. The Chamber of Commerce from Shipwreck Bay was responsible for sending them away. They usually ran the ocean trade of the outer islands. This time, they were recruited by Sir Søren to be responsible for transporting these refugees to the city of Mordor. As long as these Chambers of Commerce sent away a group of people, they could be exempted from a year's' tribute '. Now, many Chambers of Commerce from the south coast were mobilizing fleets, and some planned to exempt themselves from three years of tribute in one breath.
Sir Søren always kept his word!
Since this sir made a promise, naturally, he would not go back on his word. It was just a trip back and forth to send people over. It would only take a little time, but the benefits were tempting.
Along the way.
The guards of the Chamber of Commerce took care of them. Occasionally, when someone was sick, there would be doctors to treat them. These people who were sent away were counted. In case of an accident, the Chamber of Commerce would be responsible.
George asked some information about the city of Mordor.
When the guards of the Chamber of Commerce mentioned this place, their faces were full of envy. It was said that it was a very rich place. There was an endless stream of merchant ships coming and going. The security was also much better than other places. There was a lot of news about that place. For example, there was a magical fertilizer there. Even the priests of the Temple of Agriculture were attracted there. For example, even slaves could get freedom as long as they worked hard. It was said that some slaves had been given land because of their hard work and so on.
Time passed like this.
There were many curious people like George, and they were getting closer and closer to the city of Mordor!
