"Another noble lord?"
"Ah? A marquis?"
"Who is greater, the Marquis or the Earl we killed?"
"She won't catch us mining too, will she?"
Hearing these words, the serfs immediately started talking and there was a lot of noise all around.
Xinghuo was immediately frightened and broke out in a cold sweat - knowing that these elite earth elf infantry present were enough to slaughter everyone here, and he didn't want these companions who had accompanied him through life and death to die here in vain.
Starfire stepped forward with gritted teeth.
"Mr. Delena, may I ask what important matter you may have?"
Delena replied, "Of course it is to bring the goodwill of the kingdom. You have done a great job."
"Uh, goodwill?"
Xinghuo was a little confused.
Delena covered her mouth and chuckled, then continued, "Of course, you are the pioneers in resisting the corrupt rule of the North. Even Lord Trump has heard of you."
"He also mentioned you personally at a meeting and gave you verbal commendations, highly affirming your activities."
Xinghuo was a little confused, but still asked nervously: "So, what arrangements does the kingdom have for us?"
Under the dual pressure of the elite army and his status as a marquis, he had unknowingly put himself in a low position.
This also made a hint of pride appear in the depths of Delena's eyes.
"The kingdom has made arrangements."
The highlight is finally here!
Starfire held her breath.
As if she had sensed the other party's uneasiness, Delena smiled and comforted him: "Don't worry, the kingdom will not treat anyone unfairly."
Delena took out a document from her bosom and said calmly, "Warriors of the Fire Seed, you will be granted citizenship of the kingdom and assigned to factories in various cities to have stable and fulfilling jobs."
"So—can we have food?"
A serf raised his hand boldly and asked.
"of course."
"In our Burning Kingdom, everyone has access to sufficient food supplies. No one will die of hunger, and this isn't even a problem."
Delena replied in a relaxed tone, even nodding slightly at the serf.
"how is this possible?"
"Even the free people may not be able to eat enough!"
"No one starved to death? Oh my god, does such a place really exist?"
The serfs were in an uproar again. Everyone had enough to eat. For them who had suffered from hunger since childhood, this was simply an incredible scene that only existed in heaven and dreams.
"Can we have clothes to wear?"
"Will I freeze to death in winter?"
"Can you avoid being beaten?"
"Will we have a place to stay?"
The serfs seemed to have opened their mouths and started to ask questions one after another, fantasizing about the "good life" they would have in the future.
These issues, which seem most basic and even somewhat ridiculous to ordinary people from modern times, are like the Garden of Eden to them.
"The clothes in the Kingdom are good quality and cheap."
"The kingdom's spellcasters can ensure that the city is always warm."
"Intentional injury is against the law. Even if you are a duke, you cannot violate the kingdom's code."
Facing their questions, Delena was not impatient, but answered them patiently one by one, making the serfs feel refreshed.
"This may not be clear enough, so let's show it more intuitively."
"Snapped."
She clapped her hands gently, and the guards on both sides immediately handed her a wooden box containing a magic crystal.
Delena pressed the crystal, and a translucent image suddenly appeared in the air. The serfs looked up in surprise and cried out in surprise.
——In the video, a worker with a serf brand on his neck was working on the assembly line. The surrounding environment was clean and tidy, compared to the shabby and dirty farmhouse. His job was just the simplest checking of product quality and engraving qualified labels with machines. It looked very easy and didn't seem to require much effort at all.
“Is this our future job?”
"This, this can be called work?"
"He eats so much, and this is all he needs to do it?"
The serfs exclaimed in amazement. They had been working like oxen and horses ever since they could remember. Pulling plows and digging ore were common tasks for them. They had never seen such an easy "job".
Looking at the serfs' surprised faces, Delena continued to induce them, "These are the kingdom's workers. They enjoy generous treatment and only have to do the easiest work."
However, she deliberately omitted the clause "at least fifteen hours a day".
"This Marquis is a good man!"
"Yes, it's surprising that such a job can be arranged for us."
“Such good conditions.”
"She even answered me personally. She's totally different from those noble lords in the North!"
The serfs were discussing the matter with great interest, and they were already very fond of the female marquis, but they did not realize and did not care that this was the result of the other party's deliberate guidance.
"I, I want to be a worker of the kingdom."
Chai Gun said stutteringly.
That expression was full of yearning and admiration.
Xinghuo looked around, listening to the serfs' vision for the future, and feeling uncomfortable when she heard them use the title of "master" again and showing great respect for the Marquis Delena.
“This world shouldn’t be like this.”
Xinghuo thought to herself.
He had just led these serfs to break the old and rotten shackles, but they seemed about to be put into invisible and heavy chains.
But is he qualified to stop the serfs from pursuing a "good life"?
Does he have what it takes to lead people in Anzeta to build a world without oppression?
the answer is negative.
This is also a complete conspiracy.
The members of the Spark will be dispersed to various cities and become ordinary workers of the kingdom, and the name "Spark" will disappear with the passage of time.
The fire may have gone out.
After a long silence, Starfire asked them, "Everyone - do you all think so?"
"Yes."
"It's great to be able to eat enough every day and not get beaten."
"Yes, it's like a dream."
"I'm tired of fighting and killing anyway."
The serfs answered in a flurry, discussing their future lives, and had no objection to the kingdom's arrangements.
Delena still maintained that kind smile and nodded slightly to Xinghuo, as if in greeting.
"When these serfs are scattered throughout the North, my reputation among humans will be even higher."
"We must maintain this political image and pretend to be the representative of human interests in the kingdom, so that we can climb to a higher position."
This pure-blooded snake man who always disguised himself as a human thought so in his heart.
The serfs were completely moved by the kingdom's propaganda. They gave up their resistance of several months and began to obey the command of Marquis Delena and cooperate with the hobgoblin army to take over the city of Dena.
Xinghuo stayed away from the excited crowd, thinking silently, no one knew what he was thinking about.
But Nick, who had followed him first, patted his shoulder and whispered.
"The South, there are still many oppressed people in the South, where slavery may not have been abolished, and we can rekindle the fire there."
Finally, Xinghuo clenched his fists, looked toward the distant horizon, and said in a firm tone:
"Okay, then let's go to the south."
“The fire will never go out.”
However, he didn't know that Marquis Delena had just talked with Nick and specifically told them, the core members who did not want to give up the "spark", to go south, to the Fadlan area.
There, they can freely display their ambitions and let the fire burn brightly. (End of this chapter)
