The elite mercenary group, which was so powerful that it seemed invincible, was destroyed in such a way that it had never seen before, fell down continuously like harvested wheat.

A group of fully armed soldiers walked out of the woods, began to clean the battlefield and count the bodies.

The refugees were all poor people living in the lowest class of society. The best situation was that they were just free people who lived a difficult life. Those who were uneducated and had not seen much could not see the difference between the soldiers' equipment and other noble armies. They all looked like they were equally expensive steel armor, and they all held swords (although they did not use them at all), and were equally vicious and terrible.

The refugees who had escaped deep into the camp due to the explosion had no way out. They were soon found out from caves and ragged tents by these unknown soldiers and brought them to the square where they gathered before. The soldiers did not exert violence against the civilians, but these frightened people were still trembling, no less at ease than when they were put on by the mercenaries with swords before.

For most people in this era, robbers, mercenaries and soldiers are the same. In fact, these three roles can be exchanged at any time.

Joan shrank beside the crowd, carefully reducing her presence. She didn't know where these soldiers came from, but they were equipped with unified equipment and had orderly actions. It was obviously the army of a noble master. Why did a noble master suddenly come to wipe out a mercenary group? This is really hard to say, but no matter what, it was definitely not for the rescue of a group of "unpreience".

Maybe what they had to do was to catch some slaves like the mercenaries before. Although the orthodox nobles rarely did these things themselves, for the barbaric and chaotic southern border, the rebellious nobles also existed.

The extremely tall man should be the leader of these people. He commanded another knight and a girl with elf blood. All the soldiers around him were in awe of him. After assigning the mission, the tall man walked towards him.

The refugees gathered together in fear, and many of them were bruised after being pushed and fell. Gao Wen couldn't tell from these people which was the "leader" of this refugee team, so he stood beside the crowd and said loudly: "I am the lord of this land, don't be afraid, are you all here to protect you?! Are there anyone missing or injured and unable to move?"

These refugees were startled by Gao Wen's loud voice, and then were startled by his identity as a lord. As a result, the first reaction was to retreat in unison, then look at me and I look at you, and no one dared to answer.

Gao Wen frowned, and at this time the priest Wright had wiped away the blood stained by the "silence technique" on his hands and came to Gao Wen.

"The Holy Light is above! Look at the physical condition of these poor people!" The strong priest exclaimed, drew a sacred symbol in his chest, and then opened his hands and muttered words. A hazy and holy light appeared in the air in all directions. As Wright recited the specific sentences in the Holy Light Prayer, these glimmers gradually formed a divine technique that could restore energy on a large scale and heal tiny injuries. "May the Holy Light heal you."

Except when they are punished, poor lower-class people rarely have the opportunity to get close to real magic or magic. A large-scale "Mini-effect Holy Light" is only the most basic first-level magic, but it still makes these people feel awe and even slightly turbulent.

After Wright used this basic magic, he discovered that the refugees were seriously injured. The magic trick with weak effects had no effect on them, so he pulled these people out of the team and treated them separately.

A thin and black girl was injured more than others, and her injuries had worsened for more than a day. One of her arms and shoulders was bitten by some beast with sharp teeth, and she had already injured her muscles and bones, and had an infection in this harsh environment. Compared to this injury, the bloody and new wound on her face was insignificant.

"You're lucky," Wright purified the infected wound on Joan's arm with the holy light. "Look, look, this has begun to suppurate in a few days. You will have a high fever, and you may not even be able to save your life!"

Joan could feel that her injuries were getting better at an incredible speed, and the noble master who was standing next to her who claimed to be a lord had turned his attention to her. She heard the other party speak: "Didn't the wound on your arm be fucked by those mercenaries?"

"...It was bitten by a wild beast." Jon suppressed the tension in his heart and replied in fear.

"What about the face?"

"It was whipped by their whip."

"...Don't be afraid, these mercenaries will no longer hurt you," Gao Wen comforted the scarred girl, "How many people do you have in total? Are they all here?"

Tom's figure flashed through Joan's mind for a moment. She bit her lip, not knowing whether she should speak.

"Don't worry, I have said that I am the Lord here. This land belongs to the Cecil family. You have placed it under the protection of our army and smiled. "The Cecil family is committed to restoring the order of this land. We are looking for and gathering the homeless people scattered in this area."

Speaking of this, he raised his head and raised his voice: "Not only do you know other refugee settlements, but you can also tell me that as long as you comply with the laws set by Cecil, I will allow every homeless person to live on this land, and those who provide refugee intelligence can receive additional rewards!"

The crowd was slightly turbulent. This kind of "noble opened the door and accepted the homeless people to live in the territory" was something they had never heard of. Most people's first reaction was surprise and unbelievable. Some people even doubted whether this was a trap, but the "extra reward" attracted their attention. Qiong could feel the crowd behind her was shaking. These "companions" who were hungry until today did not have much willpower. She heard someone speak.

"Master, Lord, we mostly escaped from the vulture leader," said a man with dark skin and thin skin, "There was a flood there, the land and houses were destroyed, and all the food was destroyed. Lord, Lord, closed the gate of the castle and let us wait for death outside, and some of us escaped... Do you really let us escapers live on your land?"

"As long as you follow the laws of this land and act according to my rules," said Gowen affirmingly, "and you can rest assured that Cecil's laws are definitely much more merciful than those you would have to obey."

"That……"

The shriveled and thin man was about to say something, but a sudden sound came from the woods. Knight Philip came back from the woods with a dozen soldiers, and two soldiers were also escorting a limping and a red-nose young man.

"Sir!" Knight Philip yelled and reported that a man was found in the woods, who might have been a refugee who had run away. He attacked us with a bow and arrow, but he did not hurt anyone and was caught by us."

Joan's heart tightened and looked up in horror. Sure enough, when he saw Tom, he was held by two soldiers on his shoulders by the woods.

One of the soldiers also had the familiar hunting bow that his father passed down on the buckle around his waist.

In an instant, she figured out what was going on: Tom said he was looking for mushrooms, but he secretly took the bow and arrow, probably preparing to take the risk of hunting deep in the forest. He neither caught his prey nor was eaten by the hungry beasts in the forest, but fell into a worse situation: this rash fool, he attacked the lord's knights and soldiers with the bow and arrow!

Qiong felt dizzy and his body was about to fall down as soon as he softened. This scared Wright, who had just finished her treatment, and said: "Holy Light! Is there something wrong with my healing technique?!"

The young man next to the woods also saw his sister and the situation inside and outside the camp. He didn't know what was going on here, so he exclaimed: "Sister?! What's wrong here?!"

"You know?" Gao Wen waved his hand and signaled Knight Philip to let the thin young man come over, "Why did he attack my people?"

"Tom! You've caused a big disaster!" Joan grabbed Tom's arm and almost pinched his flesh, "You attacked the lord's soldiers!"

"I...I thought they were robbers..." Tom looked horrified, "I heard them talking about what to do with the corpse..."

Gao Wen's mouth trembled, and he understood the situation.

"That seems like a misunderstanding," he looked at the confiscated hunting bow. Such a poor-quality bow can only be used against beasts in the woods. For enchanted armored Cecil combat soldiers or knights like Philip, "Phillip, who was attacked?"

A magic infantry stood up: "Report to me, it's me, but I'm fine!"

"Sir, this seems to be a misunderstanding," Philip said proactively. "The Knight should be tolerant. I don't think it's necessary to over-take the young man's responsibility as long as he can remember the lessons and don't be so impulsive again in the future."

Gao Wen is more and more fond of Philip's character of supporting the role and not knowing it...
