Hunter starting from Hunter World

Chapter 1,345 The meaning of learning is to better understand the world

fear!

confusion!

despair!

As the expeditionary force officially set foot on this continent, almost all villages and small towns within a radius of 100 kilometers from the fortress city were devastated.

Soldiers filled with hatred and hatred for this country broke into ordinary people's homes in extremely brutal ways, gathering everyone, men, women, old and young, and systematically robbed all valuable items and the most important food.

Before leaving, he did not forget to set a fire to burn all the growing crops and houses in the fields.

If they encounter a little resistance on the way, they will immediately and mercilessly kill the whole family of those who dare to resist.

With fierce and brutal suppression, thousands of ordinary people were forced to transport their own belongings and food, dragging their families with them to this port city that had been turned into ruins.

After seeing the tragic situation of the huge port fortress under the ravages of artillery, their last bit of resistance disappeared.

Because among the large number of mutilated corpses, they saw the transformed warriors used to resist the enemy's secret weapon - the Dragon's Descendants.

Even these powerful transformation warriors were massacred. Ordinary people like me with little power would have been given away as much as they came.

What's more, when they were plundered and driven away, some translators, under Allen's instruction, had explained to these people the origin of the expeditionary force, as well as the organization and the crazy experiments the country behind the organization had done on the island.

Therefore, most ordinary people who have lost everything overnight understand that the current situation is actually a naked and undisguised act of revenge.

If there is a large-scale resistance, this group of heavily armed soldiers will be very happy to raise their butcher knives and carry out an indiscriminate killing.

In order not to give the enemy any excuse to kill them, most of the prisoners were extremely obedient. Even if they were beaten and insulted, they would silently endure it, for fear of accidentally irritating the other party and causing the death of themselves and their families.

Seeing the fear that occasionally showed in the eyes of these ordinary people, Allen's face showed a trace of playfulness that was not easy to detect, and asked without looking back: Is this all?

Well! Yes! Because it is a border, the population is relatively small. Within a radius of 100 kilometers, we only caught these. In addition, according to your request, those families who originally held positions such as village chiefs are still People who are literate and have knowledge and history will clean them up immediately. A middle-aged man with an unshaven face pursed his lips and smiled cruelly.

As a member of the Knights, his young daughter and wife died in the battle ten years ago when the Silver-Eyed Lion King Ricarudo led many awakened people to invade the city.

Therefore, this guy is full of strong hatred for the organization that created demons and awakened people, and all he can think about is how to destroy the country behind the organization, even if he becomes a demon for this.

In fact, ninety-nine percent of the members of the Knights, as well as the sailors and soldiers recruited, had family members or friends die tragically at the hands of demons and awakened ones.

As victims, they never thought about returning alive this time. They just hoped to cause as much killing and destruction as possible before dying.

no doubt!

This is a group of Avengers!

In their eyes, there is no such thing as innocence. The entire country, from the ruling class to the civilians, are all enemies.

Allen nodded with satisfaction: Well done! Remember to throw the spoils to the merchants and keep the grain, poultry, livestock and various meats, eggs, and vegetables.

Don't worry, I have made all the arrangements. According to the businessmen, they accidentally discovered a small island when they came. It is less than two days' voyage from the mainland and can be used to store supplies. A transfer station. Later, we can transport some of the grain, poultry and livestock that cannot be loaded there and use it as an advance base. The middle-aged man said while winking at his soldiers.

moment!

Hundreds of soldiers waved their weapons and gathered the prisoners scattered around the ruins into the cleared square in the center.

All of a sudden, all kinds of pleas and screams of fear could be heard.

These civilians were obviously very frightened and thought they were going to kill them all.

fortunately!

When the crowd was densely gathered together, the soldiers took no further action and just stared at these enemies with cold and hostile eyes.

Now as long as you give an order, they will immediately swarm forward, covering the entire square with blood and corpses.

Unfortunately, the soldiers filled with hatred did not receive the expected killing order in the end.

Sir, I think these captives can make good slaves. As you know, we are currently very short of healthy and strong labor force. We merchants have just discussed and are willing to purchase twelve-year-olds from the expeditionary force at the price of ten silver coins per person. Men and women between the ages of forty and forty.”

A fat businessman took the opportunity to come up and put forward a suggestion about the slave trade.

As he said, under the organization's control for a hundred years, the island's declining population could not satisfy the Western land that had already stepped into the first industrial revolution.

As the saying goes, if there is demand, there will be a market, and if there is a market, there will be huge benefits.

In addition, most businessmen have no moral bottom line at all. As long as it is profitable, let alone buying and selling people from enemy countries as slaves, even their own biological parents and children can clearly mark the price.

Noticing the fiery gleam in the eyes of the businessmen accompanying the army, Allen sneered and shook his head: You want slavery? You are really brave! You know that with the scale of this continent, if slavery is implemented, Will the entire country face a terrible situation in the future? Believe me! It won’t be long before you or your descendants will be exterminated in the slave uprisings one after another. Slavery is too backward. You should seriously consider using another method. A way to make up for the lack of labor. Plus, I have other uses for these people.

After saying this, Allen ignored the astonished expressions of the businessmen, walked straight up to the high platform, coughed lightly, and then added a magic spell to himself to amplify his speaking volume.

The next second...

His voice echoed throughout the square.

The prisoners, who were originally frightened, also realized that this was the enemy's leader who was going to give a speech, so they closed their mouths and remained quiet.

Everyone, I think you have all heard about who we are and what we are here for on the way here. That's right! All this is to blame on the upper-level rulers of your country. It is their inhumane behavior that has led to Today's retaliatory war... Allen used the unique language of this continent and began to explain to the captives in the audience.

You don't need to ask to know that he did this to divert the conflict and change the object of hatred of these civilians from the expeditionary force to the ruling class of his own country, thereby reducing the mental burden of robbing other villages next.

But we don't know anything! We are just a group of innocent farmers! If you want to take revenge, you should also take revenge on the nobles who live in big cities! A woman who looked about thirty years old mustered up the courage to shout loudly.

Allen glanced at the other party and immediately smiled and asked: Innocent? Then let me ask, are the countries on the island that were destroyed by your country innocent? Are the children who were treated as consumables and made into man-eating monsters innocent? Are the civilians who were killed and eaten innocent? So don’t tell me anything about innocence. No one in this world is innocent. The taxes you pay for farming are the greatest support for this country.

Those damn bastards! the woman cursed through gritted teeth.

Not only her, but other captives around her also began to curse the rulers living in the city and manors with all kinds of obscene words.

After all, class contradiction is always the biggest contradiction in society.

These people at the bottom, who have been exploited and oppressed for a long time, are full of dissatisfaction and resentment towards the upper ruling class.

Coupled with the fact that Allen deliberately used words to amplify and intensify the original contradiction, he naturally got the result he wanted.

After scolding for a while, the woman who took the lead just now stood up again and continued to ask in a slightly trembling voice: What are you going to do with us? Kill us? Or treat us as slaves?

Don't worry, I won't kill you, nor will I demote you as slaves. After all, compared to your country, we still have the most basic benefits and bottom line as human beings. Later, I will let the soldiers stay with you. Save enough food for ten days, as well as some weapons and armor. As for what you are going to do with these ten days of food and weapons, that is not my concern. Allen deliberately pretended to be I am a good person. look like.

What? Ten days of food rations? We can't survive on this little food!

Yes! You burned down our houses and farmland. Even if there are seeds, we won't be able to get enough food to feed everyone until next autumn.

Please, please, please give us more food.

Faced with the possibility of starving to death, all the civilians present fell into a state of hysteria.

Some of them knelt on the ground, some tried to squeeze to the front, and some tried to sell their daughters or sons in exchange for some food rations to survive.

In response to the pleadings of these people, the hard-hearted Allen was not moved at all. He just shouted expressionlessly: Quiet! Who gave you the courage to go further and make demands on me? I haven't killed all of you. That's quite merciful. Don't forget, in addition to ten days of rations, I also gave you weapons and equipment. Since you don't have enough food to eat, why don't you grab it? Have you forgotten that where the nobles live? Are there a lot of food stored in manors and cities? Even if you can’t defeat well-defended manors and cities, can’t you also defeat villages that also have no defenses?”

moment!

Everyone present was stunned.

Yes!

With weapons and equipment, you can rob if you don’t have food!

Especially those honest farmers seemed to have suddenly opened the door to a new world.

In just a few minutes, the eyes that were originally filled with fear and fear became dangerous.

Even each other began to have a strong sense of mutual defense.

Quiet!

Terrible quiet!

The weird atmosphere spread at an extremely fast speed, and eventually all the tens of thousands of captives completed their ideological changes.

After Allen noticed this, he immediately showed a satisfied smile, turned around and ordered: Go and distribute ten days' rations to each of them, as well as a sword and an armor.

As you wish.

The middle-aged knight with a full beard patted his chest hard, and immediately led hundreds of soldiers to distribute food and weapons one by one in order.

Normally, these ordinary people who get rations and weapons should run away as soon as possible.

But they did the opposite and quickly gathered in the wilderness outside the ruins, using family, blood and region as ties.

When the sky darkened, an expected attack and killing began.

The party with a larger number of people began to kill the party with a smaller number of people.

They took away food and weapons and equipment from them, and forced adult men into their ranks to serve as cannon fodder.

Gradually, each small group grew like a snowball.

After two days of waiting, there were already several teams of more than a thousand people.

After the leaders of these teams confirmed that each other was not a good robbery target, they quickly led their men to attack villages and small towns a hundred kilometers away.

Since they already have ready experience, these rebels will kill all the old people and children mercilessly every time they capture a place, leaving only young women as tools to vent their beastly desires.

As for the adult men, they were all incorporated into the army and thrown into the front line during the next battle.

After several robberies and showing off their animalistic desires, they naturally become members of the group.

Appreciating the riot provoked by Allen himself, Galadia couldn't help but take a deep breath and sighed slightly: It's really terrifying. Just a few words can cause a country to be in chaos from within. Look, It won’t be long before the promise of blood flowing across this continent can be fulfilled.”

Scary? Allen shook his head indifferently. No, it's not that I'm terrible, but that I have a little more knowledge. Do you know what learning is for?

For what? Galadia asked in an uncertain tone.

Allen smiled and replied: It is to have a better, deeper and more objective understanding of the world and what is happening. Only when you truly understand the world will you not be swayed by the messy information, remarks and thoughts. .Similarly, when you truly understand the world, you will find that most of the people around you are very stupid and ignorant, and are easily influenced and persuaded. And I just took advantage of this...
