Lords of the Warp Beginning with Violet

Chapter 59 Nobles, Bureaucrats, and Common People

"I thought that when I brought you out this time, I would be lucky enough not to encounter such a thing. Now it seems that my luck is not so good. It finally chose to let you look directly at these low-level evils." Li Sheng said.

His voice was cold, calm, but powerful, like the baton that those tax collectors would not hesitate to hit on the fugitives.

Some elderly people even vomited blood from their mouths due to the blows with batons.

Ivan wanted to rush out and do something, but Li Sheng held his shoulders firmly. Violet silently turned her head to the side, but the psychic energy in her hands was flickering slightly.

But after all, she is not a saint, and she will not think about saving all the suffering in the world, nor can she save all the suffering in the world.

"You have to watch everything that's going on in front of you and keep everything they did in your mind."

Li Sheng continued: "You have to think about the reasons why these things happened. Why are they so violent towards others despite being members of the same race?"

Following Li Sheng's words, Ivan no longer rushed out in a hurry, but quietly watched everything in front of him.

The fugitives soon succumbed to the strong tax collector's stick. There was no point in continuing to flee. After all, dozens of miles around were the baron's territory. Once they were discovered, they could no longer escape.

"Separate the people, men and old people in one team, women and children in another team. Since you can't pay the taxes, go dig in the mines. Someone must dig the iron ore that is traded with the Violet Leader." The head tax collector commanded his subordinates. Separate the crowd.

The cries of the children who were separated from their families seemed to be nothing in their ears, the cries of the women, and the regretful expressions of the men. If they had known such a result, it would be better to just hand them over to the mines to serve as taxes.

"Sir, I found something beautiful."

A tax collector with a sly eyebrow came to the leader and pointed at a Liboli man in the women's team who was panicking after being separated from her husband.

"Send me to the house when you take a break."

Faced with their unabashed discussions, Ivan naturally heard them all, these scum.

"teacher!"

Ivan turned to look at Li Sheng, the anger in his eyes ready to come out, while Li Sheng calmly released the palm holding his shoulders.

The spell was terminated, and the three of them were suddenly exposed in front of the tax collector who tortured the fugitives wantonly.

"You Ursus worms!!! Why does the empire support you, the scum of society!!!"

The abuse in Ivan's mouth was unconcealed. Unfortunately, his upbringing as a prince made him seem so weak even in cursing.

"There are actually a few fish that have slipped through the net here!" A tax collector looked at the three of them in surprise, then raised his baton and prepared to step forward.

Unfortunately, he wanted to attack the wrong target.

Ever since Violet became the Duke of Ursus, Li Sheng has never bowed his head to anyone. The graves of those who dared to offend him are already two feet high.

What's more, he still has the fragments in his hands. Except for those giant beasts with authority to personally take action, or the four major natural disasters of Terra breaking out, he can't think of any other way to kill him.

Without explanation, Li Sheng raised his hand, and the black chains formed a cage. After surrounding everyone present, the tax collector who was holding a baton and wanted to attack Violet did not even have time to scream in front of everyone. The soul was extracted.

Before his soul was extracted, his body first experienced what Lingchi's punishment was. His flesh and blood were peeled off piece by piece in an instant, and then turned into pieces and fell to the ground.

Until the end, only the white bones were left. Under his intentional control, the pain of being stripped of flesh and blood poured into the brain of the person involved and penetrated deep into the soul without concealment.

"Eat it."

Under Ivan's horrified gaze, Li Sheng threw the already stupid soul behind him. Brosko reached out to grab the soul, then stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it.

But looking at his frown, it was obvious that this tortured stupid soul did not meet his requirements for eating, but that was not Li Sheng's problem.

"Gudu."

Ivan swallowed, as if he was meeting his teacher for the first time.

"I've never been a good person, but I don't like to take the initiative to make trouble, so it seems normal."

"Of course, I don't mind playing around if he dares to take the initiative to cause trouble, but if he wants to touch my wife, even if he just has this idea, then he must die."

They were still calm words, but the horror in them was deeply implanted in the hearts of every normal person present.

"You can take care of the rest yourself, and Brausco will obey your orders."

After experiencing what just happened, Li Sheng suddenly lost the idea of ​​continuing to educate Ivan.

Seeing this, Violet waved her hand and unleashed a large-scale healing spell on the escapees, and then quickly helped Li Sheng and followed him back to the beast of burden carriage.

After the two left, Brosko slowly came behind Ivan, silently acting as a personal guard.

inside the carriage.

"I know you are unhappy, but there is absolutely no need for you to break your body because of this kind of popularity. On the contrary, you make me worry more." Violet sat in Li Sheng's arms, holding his cheeks with her hands, and comforted him.

Li Sheng leaned against the inner wall of the carriage and quietly watched Violet's eyes looking at him. Her sky-blue eyes were full of worry. His parents used to look at him like this when he was sick.

"Oh~ It's such annoying and longing care." Li Sheng murmured in a low and contradictory voice. Violet's eyes clearly showed a trace of panic, but the next second she was pulled out of the panic by Li Sheng. .

"Well!!!"

The sudden kiss made Violet a little overwhelmed. There were so many people present outside! He wouldn't... wouldn't be like that, right?

"It's so endearing. You should be the only one who can give me this feeling now." Holding Violet in his arms, Li Sheng buried his head in her arms.

The pull between divinity and humanity, 'Fragment' hopes that he will become a god like Guixu who can be ascended by all people, and that he can revive the grand scene of Guixu civilization where all people are gods, but he himself hopes to become a person with divinity. .

Family love is probably his only anchor now, right? Time has passed, and now he no longer has the fantasy of recreating the ruined civilization that he had when he was in Leiden. He wants to be an ordinary person who travels to various worlds with Violet.

outside the carriage.

Without the pressure caused by Li Sheng standing here, Ivan's originally nervous heart calmed down.

The chains still trap everyone here, and the tax collectors still surround the Ursus fugitives in front of them.

"My noble lord, we are only completing our work according to the Baron's arrangements. I don't know if you can let us leave here." The leading tax collector bent down and said with a smile.

After Li Sheng's killing, his tense mind noticed Ivan's clothes.

Although it is a bit messy, you can still see the fine workmanship, which is many times higher than the baron's clothes.

At the same time, it seems that he saw Ivan's young age and wanted to use this to deceive his trust. After all, what can such an eleven or twelve year old know?

"Rubbish!"

Without hesitation, he slapped the opponent to the ground, and at the same time, Ivan's gloved palm was sore from the shock.

"Who do you think you are deceiving? I am the son of His Majesty Alexander, the future prince of Ursus! Do you really think of me as an ignorant child of a commoner?"

The animal skin boots kicked the opponent's head, chest and abdomen mercilessly. Any kind of mercy towards this kind of garbage would be irresponsible to the civilians.

"Continue to linger on the ground, and the laws of Ursus will judge you." He kicked the opponent in the abdomen again as if to vent his anger, and then Ivan turned around and came to the many civilians behind him.

"Tell me, I need a reason to evade taxes. Tell me why you are evading taxes."

"Sir, it's really not that we want to evade taxes. We really can't survive." A peasant woman cried and knelt down in front of Ivan.

Her husband was one of the people who had just been severely beaten by the tax collector. If it hadn't been for Violet's spell, he would have taken in more air and lost less air.

“Originally, we have just moved from other places where natural disasters occurred, and the newly cultivated land is already barren, so normally we can still pay some taxes.

As a result, who would have thought that the wheat seeds that were finally planted a month ago would be destroyed by a small natural disaster, resulting in almost no harvest.

We really couldn't pay the taxes. In order to prevent the young and strong laborers in the village from being dragged into mining, the village chief proposed that we escape before the tax collector came. "

"But where can we escape? It's just that we don't want to go mining. Anyone who has gone mining knows that it is basically impossible to come back intact. If you are unlucky, you may even lose your life."

At this point, the woman couldn't hold back anymore, and tears couldn't stop streaming down her face. They just wanted to live, what was wrong with them?

"I remember that Ursus should have a tax exemption policy for post-disaster reconstruction, so now the question is, how did you receive the tax collection task?" After reacting, Ivan looked at the tax collectors around him and asked.

"Forehead……"

Seeing that Ivan had forgotten to come over, the tax collectors turned their attention to other places. Such unflattering words must never come out of their own mouths.

"Okay! Okay! Okay! Don't say yes."

"Stop pretending, get up." Ivan came to the front of the tax collector who was pretending to be stunned, and kicked the opponent in the stomach with his right foot.

"Your Highness, stop kicking, stop kicking, you are already awake."

Getting up from the ground, he was about to reach out to block the toes coming from Yifan, but his feet were accidentally pushed out of the way. With a cracking sound, he could no longer pretend to sleep at all.

"what!"

"Ah! Haha~ah! Ah——"

Shouts of pain continued to come from his mouth, and the severe pain made him almost ignore Ivan's words.

Seeing Ivan's face getting darker and darker, the tax collectors no longer felt tight in their crotches. They only felt that they were getting closer and closer to death.

"A group of scum of the empire, worms of Ursus." He said, but he continued to move at his feet. He had already guessed two versions in his mind.

Since they were unwilling to tell, he would go directly to the baron and ask to see if it was the corruption of the nobles, the tax collector's pretentiousness, or a den of snakes and rats.

After a final kick, Ivan rubbed the tips of his blood-stained leather boots on the sand. Li Sheng and Violet also happened to come out of the carriage at this time.
