From pioneer lord to king

Chapter 216 Gray Moth and Mouse【4K】

The space under the tiankeng is much larger than it appears on the surface. The ground is probably hundreds of meters away from the edge of the tiankeng, and the environment is gray.

Sterling avoided being chased and intercepted by the "cannon fodder" while observing the surrounding environment. There were many large taupe mushrooms growing in patches on the ground.

He knew that those were the devil's food.

Although the devils came to this world with the "Sky Fire", they were bloodthirsty and crazy, but after dealing with them for a long time, people discovered that they were actually a smart race, not the kind of "devils" who had no self-awareness and only knew destruction as mentioned in the "Bible".

They have their own language, a strict social structure, and agricultural and industrial systems, although they are very backward in the eyes of humans today.

On the land that had been eroded by the fog, no native plants could survive. Only this kind of mushroom could survive and grow rapidly.

For the devil, food is everything. As long as they have enough food, they can continuously produce weapons of war. For example, these "cannon fodder" who are now chasing and killing Sterling are the most basic types of arms.

They are also stronger than ordinary human soldiers. In the barren land, they are no different from "cannon fodder".Those who are stronger than them are their soldiers, and the weakest are comparable to apprentice knights.

These are all manufactured war weapons without self-awareness. They are officially called "demon species", and they can only reach the standard of high-level knights.

The "devil" in the official name is actually a real intelligent creature. They are rare in number, but they are born extraordinary and powerful. Every adult devil has at least the strength comparable to that of a great human knight.

Knowing the effects of these mushrooms, Sterling would naturally not allow them to grow freely. He took out a leather bag containing some purple powder.

He took out a small handful and sprinkled it in the mushroom field, and then left quickly. These powders are all "poisons" developed for these mushrooms. It only takes less than a day, and the mushrooms just now will be finished.

Sterling's figure was swift, and with a series of afterimages, he ran wildly for about a quarter of an hour, and a group of buildings appeared in front of him.

Most of the devil's architectural style is somewhat similar to the "Aztec pyramid", but it is shorter and occupies a smaller area.

The only exception is a six-sided tower located in the central area, with a height of more than 200 meters. Its top resembles a well, and it is spraying gray mist continuously.

Sterling carefully hid himself behind a boulder, only exposing his eyes to look ahead. This building complex is not too big, and judging from his experience, the number of "devils" living inside will not be too many.

This is good news. After all, these devils are too powerful individually, and they are good at making biological weapons like "demon seeds".

If there are too many of them, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for Kanarling.

Even so, Sterling still needs to determine the general strength of this small group of devils and prepare for future wars. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle.

It's just that there are many monsters wandering around the periphery of the building complex at this moment, not only the strange monsters he encountered before, but also all kinds of powerful troops. The kind of cannon fodder that chased and blocked him has no right to approach here.

"It seems that we have to force our way in." Sterling said silently in his heart, then he clenched the long sword in his hand and rushed out...

At the same time, Xiu Lun, who has settled down in Karnaland, also ushered in his first job - "special education teacher".

Why is it special education, because his students are not children in the compulsory education stage, nor are they adults who attend night schools, but a group of criminals.

That's right, his teaching position is in the prison. If Ryan hadn't talked to him alone, he would have wondered if Ryan had discovered his true identity.

"Even the prisoners in the prison need to be educated. Your Excellency the Viscount really surprises and amazes me again and again." Xiu Lun looked at the syllabus in his hand, and the corner of his mouth curved slightly.

He has only been in Karna for a few days, but the strong learning atmosphere here has deeply infected him. Anyone, regardless of status, can learn basic knowledge for free on an equal footing.

It might have looked like silly bubbling to other nobles, but to him it was an astonishing feat, knowledge was precious but it shouldn't be that expensive.

He has walked the road full of thorns and thorns, so he knows how difficult it is for a commoner to receive knowledge.

Therefore, he opened a school in the refugee area of ​​Huo Leicheng, and used the wealth he earned from his secret identity to teach those refugee children for free.

However, the more he went on, the more powerless and hopeless he felt. He originally thought that the tuition fee was the biggest obstacle, as long as he solved it by himself.

However, he soon discovered that he was wrong. The biggest obstacle for common people to seek knowledge was not money, but their own cognition.

Most civilians don't think these things are useful. If you have time to study, it's better to feed a pig and cut a basket of grass.

Therefore, his students eventually became fewer and fewer, until now only Flumia was left.

Originally, he had already given up, but Ryan's appearance changed him, but he knew that when Ryan was engaged in "Education for All", his first thought was disbelief.

But the ubiquitous rats provided him with accurate information, so his idea became unworkable again. After all, in his opinion, those civilians did not realize the importance of knowledge, and unless forced by force, it would be impossible to succeed.

In the end, he was wrong again. Ryan never forced anyone, it was all voluntary by the public, and that happened to be the case, but most people started to study seriously and achieved the real "education for all".

All of this aroused Xiu Lun's incomparably strong curiosity, this person, how could he do this?
With such doubts in mind, he agreed to come to this land with Ryan, hearing is believing, seeing is believing, and he wants to verify all of this for himself.

Facts have proved that these are all true, and he has done much better than him, at least he has no idea of ​​educating prisoners.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Xiu Lun dressed neatly and went out with a few textbooks. It is worth mentioning that he likes this kind of books that are judged by "paper" very much. The heavy animal skin books are really inconvenient to carry.

Although he has not been here for two days, he knows the route in Dorman City better than some locals. After all, he has been paying attention to this city for more than a day or two.

After walking for half an hour from his residence and passing through a small alley, he finally arrived at his workplace - "Kanaling Prison No. [-]."

There was no prison in Karnaland originally. Before Ryan came, the law and order environment in Karna was very poor. No one cared about trivial matters, and he was directly hanged or paid for ransom for major matters. There was no need for a prison at all.

Until Ryan came, he ordered people to build this prison in Doman City, appointed his old subordinate Jack as the warden, and formulated a rough and simple code.

Then, the city defense force formed a public security patrol team, arrested a large number of unscrupulous elements that affected social stability, and tried them according to the code of law.

At its peak, the population of Khanna was less than 1000, but there were less than [-] people in the prison. Most of them were arrested for theft, fraud, fighting and other incidents, and most of them have been released after serving their sentences.

There are now more than 6 people in the territory, but there are less than 500 prisoners in the prison, which also reflects Ryan's effectiveness in security management.

Because today was his first day at work, the prison elder Jack was waiting in front of the door early.

"Ah, I guess you are Mr. Huron, I am the warden of this prison, you can call me Old Jack, and then please let me lead you the way."

Old Jack looked like an honest farmer with a lame leg. Only those who were familiar with him knew how brutal this guy's methods were.

"I'm Xiu Lun, please excuse me, Lord Prisoner." Xiu Lun nodded slightly, and then followed Old Jack into the prison.

Compared with most prisons, it is not much different, but the environment is a little bit cleaner.

Old Jack introduced as he walked: "We have a lot of prisoners here, and their composition is also very complicated. There are murderers, rapists, and bandits...

But you don't have to worry, your students are all minor criminals, most of them are petty thefts and gang fights. Generally, there is no danger. Their prison terms are coming soon, otherwise they would not have the opportunity to receive education.

We have dozens of jailers on duty around the clock. If you have anything to do, you can order them at will. The lord has already explained it clearly to me. "

After walking through the winding alley, they finally came to the classroom that had been set up. The space here is very large, and it can accommodate about a hundred people to attend class together.

"This is your classroom. Your students will be here soon. You can take a rest now. I'm sorry I can't accompany you. There are still some official duties to deal with. Just call the jailer if you have something to do."

Watching old Jack limping away, Xiu Lun sat at the desk on the podium and began to prepare lessons. After all, it was the first time to teach a mortal in prison, so he had to plan carefully.

As Jack said, it didn't take long for a group of prisoners to come to the classroom under the supervision of heavily armed jailers, and Gray Moth Sablin was among them.

Gray Moth found a corner to sit down with a depressed face, and muttered, "Damn, I really have you looking for a teacher for the prisoner."

Since he ran away during the last rebellion and was finally rescued by Xiyue, Gray Moth completely extinguished the idea of ​​running away. Anyway, Ryan gave him a good treatment, and it was not bad to stay.

But after returning to the territory, Ryan never arranged formal work for him. He just went to a place and gave a few lessons to a group of little kids, which were lockpicking skills, stealing skills, etc., and he was free after the lecture.

He doesn't live at leisure. After saving a few slips/girls, he committed the problem of stealing again. But he still thinks that stealing ordinary people is not a challenge, so he stole it from our Lord Ryan.

During the implementation, Ryan caught him straight away. Speaking of which, this was the first time Gray Moth was caught in theft.

Seeing that his nature was hard to change, Ryan let Xiyue beat him up and threw him into prison. He was sentenced to half a year, and he still has more than one month to serve.

With Gray Moth's ability, it's not too difficult to escape from prison, but he can't resist Jack sending a few people to watch him all day, and he has no chance to do anything he wants.

So he has been serving his sentence "honestly" until now. He was depressed at first, but when he heard that he had to study, he even wanted to die.

He looked at Xiu Lun on the podium, his teeth were gnashing, and he wanted to go up and bite him directly.

Originally, the matter of studying had been settled long ago, but when I heard that I was in prison, the teachers were unwilling to come, so I kept procrastinating.

He originally thought that he could escape the catastrophe just like this, but he didn't expect this guy to come. The resentment in his heart is enough to support ten evil sword immortals.

Xiu Lun on the stage suddenly felt uncomfortable gazes. He glanced over the crowd, and saw the gray moth with a bitter face and a deep hatred at a glance.

He suddenly remembered that the object of the focus of care that Ryan said was called the gray moth. He didn't know which one it was at first, but now it seems obvious.

He secretly memorized Gray Moth's face, and then began to introduce himself and start the day's lecture.

What made him feel relieved was that although they were all prisoners, most of them still had a good attitude towards learning, except for that Gray Moth Sablin, who sat there and moved like a wild monkey going down the mountain, digging his nose for a while, picking his feet for a while, his blood pressure was almost up.

He immediately understood that there was a reason for the emphasis on care. All those present were studying voluntarily, but only this guy was mandatory and had to learn, and Ryan would personally ask about the progress.

"I don't care about other people, but you don't have to think about it." Xiu Lun smiled coldly, and immediately had a specific plan in his mind.

For no reason, Gray Moth, who was flicking his booger, shivered all over his body.

After the day's class was over, Xiu Lun returned to his residence, and immediately began to mobilize his helpers. As a result, overnight, the number of mice in Gray Moth's cell increased several times...

In the following time, Gray Moth suffered various attacks from Xiu Lun, and he was given a study plan every day, and he would be punished if he failed to complete it.

He protested angrily, but the result was that the protest was invalid, and the authorized old Jack tortured him until he was in ecstasy, and the two were fighting.

No way, after a few days of struggle and a few days of falls, he finally accepted the reality and started to study.

But a scumbag is a scumbag, and a person can do anything when he is pushed to the ground, except study.

Gray Moth feels like he is being tortured every day, his head is almost bald, but the progress is still slow.

This made Gray Moth immediately hate Xiu Lun, and secretly vowed to make him look good when he went out.

Little did they know that all of this was heard clearly by the mouse in the corner...
