"A large number of native tribes!"
"Very good!"
Liszt was very satisfied with the mission reward. If the native tribes were at the level of this small tribe, then the more the better. They were the most suitable sources of serfs.
In a flash, the Serpentines formed by the smoke changed into a new Serpentine.
"Mission: The discovery of the native tribes is undoubtedly good news. The natives with magic power are mysterious. Why not investigate the native tribes carefully, find out the origin of the native tribes' cultivation system, and figure out the current development of the native tribes? Reward: treasure of the native tribes. "
"The native tribes actually have treasures. It seems that these native tribes really have an extraordinary origin."
At that moment, he planned to rush over and capture the natives who seemed to be the leaders of the native tribes, then slowly interrogate them about the native tribes. But he quickly dismissed the idea. The reason was very simple. The natives were speaking in bird language that he couldn't understand.
And he didn't have the patience to translate the native language word by word.
"It's more appropriate to mobilize a few Orders of Chivalry and a few Mages to study the current situation of the native tribes." He suddenly rode on the invisible dragon Bard and left the native tribe.
He flew directly toward the pioneering team.
Duerte Red Apricot's pioneering team not only had a large number of Knights, but also many Mages dispatched by the Guild of Magic. It was convenient for them to carry out this mission.
Find Duerte's location.
Liszt jumped off the back of the invisible dragon and released his Firebird as he descended. The surging Firebird swept through the entire pioneering team. The Knight who was close to him clutched their throats as if they were being strangled by an invisible hand. Their chests were heavy and they couldn't breathe smoothly.
"Enemy attack!" A Knight endured the discomfort and roared loudly.
A Knight even drew out the long sword of the Knight he carried with him, ready to line up to meet the enemy.
Bang!
While the Orders of Chivalry panicked, Liszt landed steadily on the ground. When he stood up, he slowly withdrew his Firebird and walked out of the dust.
Duerte, who was on high alert, saw a familiar figure slowly appear in the direction of the sound. It was a deep memory that he couldn't erase.
The Fire Dragon Knight.
Liszt Tulip!
"Your Highness!" Duarte could not believe it.
"I was the one who made Orders of Chivalry quiet down." Liszt always liked this kind of sudden and flashy appearance, no matter how big of a commotion he caused.
Since he was a Dragon Knight, he had to maintain the dignity of a Dragon Knight at all times.
Duarte heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Liszt's appearance. He immediately asked the Knight beside him to calm the commotion. Then, he got off his horse and bowed. "I didn't know Your Highness was coming. I couldn't welcome you."
"I just came over to greet you." Liszt gestured for Duterte to follow him to the tent.
After entering the tent, he first asked the pioneering team about what happened during their voyage. It was nothing major. Even if there was a storm, the fleet could still safely pass through the storm and reach the mouth of the whirlpool river because of the Wind-calming Divine Pearl and the Water-calming Divine Pearl provided by the territory.
However, after arriving at the dense forest of the whirlpool river, there were more problems. First of all, some serfs were not acclimatized to the climate, which made them sick and even die. Then, there were more mosquitoes in the forest, which killed many serfs after being bitten by mosquitoes. Finally, the hot weather caused many serfs to suffer from heatstroke.
The fleet brought a total of 2,000 serfs. After going back and forth, more than 500 serfs died.
As for the Knight, the Knight with qi was very adaptable. Except for a few who died due to the World of Warcraft, the other Knight still maintained their full fighting strength.
"It seems that I was a bit too hasty. The Knight can adapt to the environment of Blazing Island, but the serfs can't." Liszt shook his head.
He felt somewhat uncomfortable.
The serfs of the pioneering team lived and ate in the wild, which was full of dangers. They couldn't be compared to the serfs of Firewood Town.
"Your Highness, death is inevitable in pioneering. They came for the gold coins, so naturally, they have to be prepared to die for the gold coins." Duarte didn't care at all. "The dead serfs can be slowly replenished later. The priority is to develop Blazing Island and open up the living area of the whirlpool river as soon as possible."
The Knight in this world was compassionate. However, there were almost no Knight who truly had compassion for the serfs.
The huge class gap made the nobles basically look down on the commoners. Their compassion was only directed towards the Knight of the same class – unless they were killed in a charge, the Knight would not be killed under normal circumstances. After paying the ransom, they could still go back to being nobles.
Hearing this.
Liszt said seriously: "Duarte, serfs are also people. You need to change your previous attitude. The Blazing Islands are in urgent need of development. Every serf is an important resource. In the future, the Knight of the Fire Nation will be born from the descendants of these serfs. "
Duarte nodded and said: "Your Highness, I understand. I will protect the serfs seriously." Although he said so, his expression still revealed his disapproval of the serfs.
This was a deeply ingrained idea. It was difficult to change it without going through a revolution of blood and fire.
Liszt understood Duarte's mentality very well. In fact, he was also an aristocrat. If he really came up with the idea of "everyone is equal", he was afraid that even he himself would not be willing. "No, Duarte, you still don't understand … The serfs we brought from outside will breed enough Knight to protect the Fire Nation in the future."
Duarte didn't reply.
Liszt continued: "All serfs who come to the Blazing Islands to develop the wasteland will be granted the status of free people after the founding of the country. They will be given land to farm so that in the near future, they can strive to become Knight families and become the backbone of the Fire Nation."
"Your Highness, aren't you being too generous to the serfs?" Duarte asked carefully.
"No, you will understand my plan after listening to me." Liszt smiled slightly. "The reason why I have such an idea is very simple. Not long ago, I discovered a large number of aboriginal tribes on Blazing Island. Their civilization is very backward and their skin is darker than ours."
"Aboriginal tribes?" Duarte's eyes widened.
"These aboriginal tribes can be used as serfs to develop the Blazing Islands, can't they?"
Duarte said excitedly: "Since there are a large number of aboriginal tribes, it is obviously more cost-effective to capture them as serfs. Although the serfs we brought are of low status, after all, they have the same bloodline as us. They should not continue to be serfs … I finally understand Your Highness' foresight."
"It's good that you understand."
Liszt said faintly: "Immediately organize a Orders of chivalry and bring a few magicians to investigate the nearby aboriginal tribes. I need to figure out the origin and development of these aboriginal tribes. It would be best if I can master their language … But before figuring out the origin of the aboriginal tribes, pay attention to secrecy. "
