Not long after Painter escaped, D 'Darion also left on his donkey, followed by the town's Guard. Niax didn't have a large population and didn't have many professionals, so the town's garrison only had a dozen or so people. Most of their work was dealing with neighborhood disputes. When they received a report from a bar full of drinkers that there was a murderer, they didn't dare to be negligent. They hurriedly took out their weapons and equipment and rushed to the scene with their captain. By the time they arrived at the small wooden house, the fight was already over.
The Guard dutifully searched the area, but they didn't find the so-called murderer. After confirming that Rob didn't need help, they retreated and brought the unlucky bastard that Painter had brought back to the police station to record.
By the time Luo Luo came back at dusk, the storm of this matter had almost passed. The girl carried a fat fish that weighed more than two kilograms and happily ran home to make dinner for Luo Bu. That meal warmed both their stomachs. After that, the days went back to normal as if nothing had happened.
Eight months later, tens of thousands of foreigners suddenly poured into Niax. This small isolated town was in an uproar. The total population of the town was only about twenty thousand, which meant that half of the total population was strangers. Everyone in the town was at a loss as to what to do.
The largest migration in Niax's history happened 50 years ago. A declining noble family had to sell their ancestral house and move to Niax to save money. At that time, there were about 40 people in his family, which was a big deal for Niax.
This time, there were more than 10,000 people moving in, and they had a very sensitive label on them — refugees.
According to the leader of the group, they fled from the southern part of Moron Principality. Most people in Niax had never left their homeland, so they were unfamiliar with the name Moron Principality.
It wasn't until someone took out a map of the Sacred Alliance that they found the small country in the southwest, which was two thousand miles away from Niax.
The leader of the group looked helpless as well. When they decided to flee, their first choice wasn't Niakos, but a neighboring country that was less than a hundred miles away. They didn't expect that before they could settle down there, the neighboring country had declared a state of emergency. They had no choice but to start their migration again.
Because they were worried that something similar would happen again, someone suggested that they travel a little further. In the end, they arrived in the north, filled with fear and hope.
Angus was very tolerant of these refugees. Four years ago, the north lost a lot of people in the war. If they relied on natural reproduction, it would take at least two generations to recover. These refugees were the perfect supplement. So, he settled them in Niax, which had the most land and the least population.
Three months ago, Niax received the news in advance and started to prepare to accept them. However, when they saw the dusty refugees, they were still shocked.
After a year of wandering and trekking, these people looked very haggard. Not only were they commoners, but there were also some minor nobles among them. However, their situation was not much better. Although they were still trying to maintain the etiquette of nobles, the horses they were riding on looked weak and listless.
Some soft-hearted people immediately went home to get food for them. Some people who were of marriageable age could not wait to find their other half.
During this period of time, Luo Luo had also been helping out outside. Together with Luo Bu, they had built a few empty houses nearby for the refugees to stay in. Other than that, they had also treated the children in the group for free. Luo Luo did not use the mimicry magic that Luo Bu had taught her. Instead, she used the Force. A certain someone's previous speculation was right. She had not deliberately practiced for the past four years, but the virus in her body had allowed her to easily grasp the Force that only gods could possess. It was as simple as breathing and drinking water.
However, she ran into trouble when it came to using it. This was a brand new power system for humans, so she could only rely on herself to figure it out. Fortunately, she had her teacher, Luo Bu, by her side. For the past few years, the two of them had been studying the power in Luo Luo's body and had found many ways to use it, such as healing. The healing effect of the origin power was slightly inferior to the church's holy power, but it was more efficient. If one unit of holy power could heal two patients, then the same amount of origin power could heal twenty people. Luo Bu had also gradually deepened his understanding of the origin power during this process.
Unlike Lolo, Rob's body did not have the natural Force. On the contrary, he had mastered magic, secret arts, and divine arts. Although these three powers were not perfect compared to the Force, they had actually broken away from the initial expectations of the gods after hundreds or even thousands of years of self-development.
Using the gold coin as an example, the gods used a gold coin to lead the humans to the wrong path to prevent them from finding the treasure trove of the Force. However, this gold coin also increased in value over the long period of time. In the end, the four-eyed "man" could use secret arts to kill the gods. This was the best proof that the gold coin was increasing in value.
From this point, it could be seen that the secret arts were not without merit. The same was true for magic. There was a clear gap between the human civilization and the four-eyed "man" civilization at its peak. In terms of rules, magic was half a level lower than the secret arts. However, this did not mean that magic had no advantages. In terms of destructive power, magic was the strongest of all the power systems. Even the Force could not compare.
Therefore, Rob did not want to walk the path of pure Force. This would undoubtedly waste the three powers in his body. The ambition of the future Supreme Magus Your Honor was even greater. He wanted to use the Force as a blueprint to perfect and fuse the three flawed powers in his body.
For ordinary people, this might be an inconceivable thing.
Ordinary people would not be able to resist the temptation of the Force. Guarding a treasure trove like Lolo, with Rob's talent and intelligence, it was completely possible for him to cultivate the power that only the gods could use in a very short period of time.
And the path he chose now had never been taken by anyone before. Whether it would work was also unknown. However, this was Rob. His previous research on mimicry magic and the mechanism of mana sharing were also fields that no one had ever set foot in. This might be the reason why when Steins saw him for the first time, he felt that he had met Roland.
