The brave man opened the coffin and rose

There is only one exit from Sweetleaf Town, which leads to a major highway that winds around the border.

Now, if you walk out of that road for a while, you can see Abes and the others resting there.

And the funny sight of the Davis men, tied up, eating with one hand.

How could the townspeople not know what was happening at the gate of their town?

However, they had no idea about General Paddy's conspiracy to mobilize troops, and they were not even aware of the invasion of the alien lizardmen from the Eastern Wilderness.

Civilians who are fooled by the upper class are the true label of these ordinary town folks.

Only a businessman like Matthew who travels around everywhere would be well-informed about current affairs and be able to infer that a domestic storm is about to come through details such as the news of troop movements everywhere and the issuance of many new decrees in the royal capital.

Therefore, when they discovered a group of soldiers with knives appearing at the entrance of the town and saw a group of guys dressed as "regular soldiers" being captured, they immediately panicked.

A large number of townspeople gathered at the mayor's house. Some of them clamored for the mayor to come out, while others condemned his incompetent leadership.

Everyone looked anxious and frustrated, not only because of the military commander who had appeared from nowhere outside the town, but more importantly, Tianye Town had been plagued by various troubles for many days.

Just a week ago, a series of crimes swept through the town like a plague.

Just listen to the complaints of the townspeople to see how many of these things there are.

"Who smashed my stall? Who did this?" This was a human woman wearing an apron.

"The mine in this town has collapsed, and my friends are still inside!" This is a man dressed in thin miner's clothes.

"My wife has been missing for several days! What are you doing? You fat banker! Spend some money to help hire someone to find her!" and an elf man holding a crude portrait.

"No, Draenei, I can be sure that your wife's disappearance has nothing to do with the riots in the town these days. It is not easy for an orc woman to be with an elf man for such a long time..."

"Do not!!!"

And now, these emotions that had been pent up for a long time finally burst out when they discovered that the town was surrounded by figures riding wolves, and the only exit was blocked.

In the room behind the mayor's hall, a large man also had a sad face.

Mayor Wilford is not a very smart administrator.

The only reason he was able to become the mayor of Sweetleaf Town was because he ran a trade line that exported sweet crops, and thus was in charge of the jobs of a group of people in the town.

A businessman and an investor are his true nature, and he is neither a detective nor an adventurer. All these demands came at him all at once, and he was indeed a little overwhelmed.

At first, he tried to give it a try.

But later on, he clearly realized that he could not follow up on so many accidents by himself.

And most importantly, there were people outside who surrounded the town and blocked the exit of the town.

What on earth is this for?!

Now he was in no mood to continue playing the detective game. All he was thinking about was how to run away safely with his money.

Just as Wilford started packing the second box, the doorman who was responsible for guarding the door rushed in nervously.

"Mayor Wilford, the group outside has sent an envoy to ask for a meeting..."

----------

Although he was not sure whether the person in charge of the town had figured out the situation, at least Abes saw the team coming to greet him.

The man walking in front was a pot-bellied man with a protruding belly that rose and fell violently with his breathing every few steps he took.

After getting closer, Abes saw that the other person seemed to have put the sweater on inside out, and the rough stitches inside were clearly visible.

Walking beside him was Gaviling, who was sent by Abes to act as a messenger.

This guy is a smart kid. Compared to the thinking patterns of Kronos and Anivia, this child who gave himself a surname seems to be closer to ordinary people.

Therefore, Abes felt more at ease sending him to deliver the message.

Behind this "heavyweight" player in the lead, followed several followers who looked somewhat malnourished, wearing gray waiter or maid uniforms.

Further behind were some civilians who were watching the fun and following closely.

As the other party bowed to him and uttered the following words, Abes knew that the other party must have misunderstood their identities.

"Your Majesty, I am late in welcoming you. Please forgive me. Everything about entering the town is easy to deal with, but Sweet Leaf Town is too small to accommodate your noble body!"

"?" Abes raised his head and looked at Jiaweiling beside him, "What did you say?"

"I said we helped them drive away the enemy, and now we hope to get into the town."

That's true, but you also need others to believe it.

Davis did order a massacre of the town after mistaking Kronos and his troops for the residents of Sweetleaf, but now Davis is dead and his remaining men have been captured.

If the prisoners had not been questioned and asked to testify, who would have imagined that someone had just ordered the massacre of the entire town.

During the break, Abes had noticed that at the entrance and exit of the town, some brave people came out and peeked in, trying to get a clear view of the situation on their side.

In the eyes of the townspeople, it seemed that they were a group of guys wearing strange leather armor and riding wolves. They had tied up people wearing regular military uniforms and now wanted to enter the town.

If you don’t understand how to become the king of the mountain, you will be doing a disservice to their lizardman-style equipment.

Helpless, Abes could only roll over and get off the wolf and help up the fat man who was kneeling on the ground.

"Sir, you are wrong. We are not bandits. We are the rebels."

Upon hearing the other party deny his identity as a bandit, Wilford, who had just breathed a sigh of relief and was about to stand up, instantly fell to the ground again, covering his eyes tightly.

"You have caused me so much trouble. Go away now. The king is still young. Although he is a little unruly, he still has a promising future. What rebel army? Where did they come from?"

"I know the rules. Just take whatever you like from the town. I'll pretend I never saw you!"

Abes pursed his lips helplessly, and then looked at the townspeople who were watching the fun behind the mayor.

They were also extremely suspicious of the identities they claimed.

Justice that cannot speak is not justice, but a background board that makes people turn a deaf ear.

Justice that does not concern oneself is not justice, but a painting hanging high on the wall.

Justice delayed is not justice, but a heavy mark on the already mottled paper.

If you want to take over the entire town, you still need to tell them the facts.

Why did everyone in Silver Moon Farm join him? Because they realized that going back to the lord to beg for a new job would not change their future of suffering.

Why did the starving people and the people captured by the Lizardmen join him? Because they didn't want to continue living the cruel life they were living now.

In Sweet Leaf Town, they were still unaware of the turmoil in the kingdom, nor did they know that the great warlord General Paddy had already begun to deploy in the northeast, and they were unaware that war was about to begin.

However, to deal with such a target group, what Abes and his team can do is not just to wait for the disaster to happen and then stand up.

They can also speak and tell others with words.

Moreover, in terms of time, they couldn't possibly wait here for the next wave of people sent by General Paddy to come and torture them before appearing like heroes.

"Being late once or twice is enough!"

Abes strode around the fat man lying on the ground and walked in front of the townspeople.

"I'm Abeth Grande. What I want to say is that we are a force that helps the people. We are a force that is trying to stop the impending storm in the kingdom from getting completely out of control. Please don't be afraid. Give us some time and listen to us about the current situation in the kingdom!"
