our family is gone

Chapter 77
These days, it is common for mobs to resist their lords, and it is normal to just make excuses, not to mention that all the townspeople were killed for a round at that time.

Those knights found out that it was just a banditry, and the prophet himself had been tied up by the ancestors, so everything was over.

But there are some things that Lance can't really say, so he can only turn his gun on the captain.

"You are also pure and brainless. If she is really the heir, will you still let you attack the town? Obviously, as long as you destroy the bandits, you will be everyone's heroes. As long as you protect the town, you will be accepted by everyone even if you are a deserter. It is a waste of opportunity. Help the bandits slaughter the townspeople and completely push the soldiers to the bandits' dead end."

The captain was severely puaed by Lance, and he was scolded for being autistic just after a little reaction.

"It's almost enough. If you really want to count it, you are just a pawn. The real culprit is the cult. You have been bewitched by a woman for so long but you don't even know the truth of the matter. You have ruined so many people who are willing to follow you." The soldiers are really pitiful and hateful."

Lance was also indisputable. If he had so many fully armed soldiers and guns and artillery equipment at the beginning of the game, he would have directly flattened those mayors, farmers, and bandits, and he still needed to plan carefully for a long time?
Hearing this, the captain caught the "cult" that Lance kept mentioning and couldn't help asking.

"What cult?"

Lance glanced at the others, but he didn't mean to say anything, he just spoke slowly.

"Compared to this, I think you should first understand what you have done to this town."

After Lance left a word, he led the people out of the room, leaving the captain alone to face the dangling lights.

As soon as he went outside, Leonard talked about what he hadn't finished just now.

"My lord, the selection of those holy light knights is very strict, and those who can join are terrifyingly strong, and wear the best equipment, and some of them are good at magic. Usually there are six battle priests in a team.

These people are also very small in number, and only churches in big cities can support them, so they will only be stationed in a few key places to be responsible for the safety of the church's top leaders.

If it was an ordinary mission, it would be impossible to dispatch them, but this time the two teams came directly to explain that the situation must not be as simple as he said. "

"I know~" Lance nodded. He also knew that this matter was not that simple, but no matter how he taught him, he couldn't be provoked, and these people saved Hamlet in disguise to buy him time.

But Lance didn't like these people at all.

Because they also have to collect taxes. It was mentioned in the tax book left by the mayor that it was a donation, but it was actually a tax.

And it is very complicated. It is said that all income is divided into ten, but in fact, when it is collected, it is often greater than this amount. It can be said that these religious taxes are like a mountain to those ordinary people.

Otherwise, why do you think the church can still build a church in such a remote place?
That's my money!
my money!
What's even more annoying is that it should be done after receiving money, but in reality?
When the bandits came over, they only passively defended the church, and they didn't care about the ordinary people who donated blood for them.

The church and the guild, who are willing to accommodate some fleeing people, will not be slaughtered by the bandits. Five hundred young adults will almost cut off the roots of the entire town.

Afterwards, seeing that the town was in such a mess that it was worthless, he just patted his ass and left~
As long as those nuns and priests are willing to use magic to save those injured townspeople, many people will not die after receiving treatment.

Not everyone is as tough as a veteran. Lance saw the bodies being carried out during the subsequent cleaning of the building.

The guild didn't collect taxes and chose to preserve itself, so it's okay to say, you don't do anything with the money!
Thinking of this Lance makes my teeth itch with hatred~
But there is nothing they can do, because the church really knows magic, maybe there really is a god behind them.

I don't know if I can touch the person behind me.

But in any case, after they left voluntarily, don't think about coming back easily. This is his territory, and he has already arranged for Susan to spread the deeds of the church at that time.

Everyone who survived will remember that those so-called gods abandoned them, and it was the lord who saved them.

He wants to get rid of the influence of religion on the territory, but he can't put it on the surface, he can only do it secretly.

But these are not things that should be thought about now, the captain's words just now made him confirm some things.

None of their routes home was toward Hamlet, only because of that woman.

And that woman is both incense and a curse, so it can be basically determined that she is a member of a cult, so it can also be determined that the reason why the artillery group attacked the town is entirely a conspiracy of the cult.

Originally, when the two bandit groups were wiped out, he should feel a little more relaxed, but now the emergence of the cult has added to his pressure, not to mention the unknown disease found in the camp of the wolf group.

The reason for the infection is probably because they chose a dense forest for their camp.

The things in this wilderness jungle also make Lance quite afraid~
The situation that was opened just now is facing another threat again. Although it has been expected for a long time, Lance still couldn't help showing a dignified look on his face, but it disappeared soon...

…………

"what!"

The captain woke up from his sleep and looked around in fear, feeling even more flustered under the darkness.

At this moment, fear almost filled his heart, and he just waved his hands indiscriminately and shouted in his mouth.

"Don't come here! Don't come here... I didn't kill you... It wasn't me..."

At this moment, the door was opened, and the captain suddenly looked over in surprise. Under the candlelight, a woman was walking in with a candle.

Under the firelight, the illusion in front of him dissipated, and he finally calmed down a little.

"Are you all right?" Susan handed a candle over to illuminate the captain's face, and couldn't help asking when she saw beads of sweat on his forehead.

"fine……"

The captain unconsciously avoided Susan's gaze, and his reaction made Susan sigh.

"Oh~ those bandits really deserve to die, they tortured you like this."

Hearing this, the captain was even more ashamed, but what Susan said next surprised him.

"But don't worry, it's safe to sleep here, and soon the lord will wipe out those bandits, and then you can go back home."

The captain could feel the woman's hatred for the bandits, and remembering what the lord said to him just now, he couldn't help asking, "Can you tell me about the bandits' treatment of this place?"

Susan did not refuse this strange question, her expression immediately turned sad, and she spoke slowly after a few seconds of silence.

"They took everything from me..."
