This plan sounds good. Although it is conceivable that Mr. Matthew will squeeze out the fruits of his labor, it is a great kindness to be able to survive and have the opportunity to return to his hometown in the future.

The crowd even burst out with words such as "Master is kind" and "Master Matthew is a good man".

Matthew didn't care. It didn't matter what he said, but what mattered was what he did.

He raised his right hand to signal everyone to be silent.

He quickly proposed a second option.

"The second option is that you stay here, I will provide you with fields and farming tools, and you will become my subjects."

Chapter 073 Mr. Matthew’s performance

After hearing the second option, the refugees instantly realized that this was probably Master Matthew's true purpose.

No one wants to make wedding clothes for others. Master Matthew has prepared so many things not for charity. He wants to let these poor people who have left their homes stay here and be his cannon fodder.

Although they don't say it, many people are not willing to accept this arrangement.

The Clare Empire has been established for thousands of years. Many people have taken root in their hometowns and live in more than a few hundred people. Their relatives and friends are all in their hometowns.If there is no special reason, I will definitely not want to leave my hometown.

Seeing that most people were silent, Matthew didn't care. He smiled and said, "I can understand your desire to return to your hometown. My family has lived in Lundebel for more than 1000 years, and I don't want to leave here either."

This sentence narrowed the distance between Matthew and the refugees, and some people even laughed along with Matthew.But they only laughed for a moment before reacting, and quickly covered their mouths to silence themselves.

Matthew didn't care about the attitudes of these people. He took out a magic crystal ball, condensed the magic power, and let the crystal ball float in the air.

The crystal ball records what happened in the camp just now.

The refugees watched Matthew's performance with bated breath.

The magician master has a noble status and powerful strength. He can fly without touching the ground when he walks. He is not the same person as these mud-legged people. It is difficult to meet him even if he wants to meet him.

They have opened their eyes today.

But as they looked, they realized something was wrong.

While the county staff were organizing the boiling of water, there were people walking around, whispering and fanning the flames.

Ordinary people are sometimes easily deceived, but they are not fools.

Even a fool can tell that someone is causing trouble.

Normal people may be curious or scared when they see someone setting fire to a meeting, but they will never rush to several camps to fan the flames in order to prevent chaos in the world.

The refugees woke up and the magician was reminding them that there were bad people among the masses.

The crowd was angry.

They quickly picked out the person who appeared in the video just now.The angry crowd opened their eyes and discovered that these bad elements were not the only ones.Soon someone took the initiative to expose it and uncovered more rumormongers.

Some of the rumormongers were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and kowtowed, while others tried to escape.

Unfortunately, they only gave Matthew a chance to show off his magic.

Matthew raised his hand and a bolt of lightning hit the rumormonger who ran dozens of meters away.

Following a burst of screams, the escaped man lay on the ground, his whole body twitching, and the outside was burnt and the inside was tender.After the troublemaker was found out, the people's anger was vented and their mood became much better.

When people are unhappy in their lives, they always blame external factors for their misfortunes.

These troublemakers just gave them this opportunity.

It's because of these thieves that they are in such pain!This is the true voice of the masses.

While the officials under Matthew were interrogating the group, an angry crowd shouted: "Cook them!"

This statement resonated.The crowd all felt that since these guys had spread the rumor that Matthew was going to boil water to boil the refugees, let them jump in and demonstrate to everyone.

It was indeed a good way to retaliate with an eye, and Matthew really wanted to throw these people into the pot and cook them.

Unfortunately not.

This is a good opportunity for him to establish his prestige. If lynching is abused, what will the people think after the anger is over?

Would anyone think that the lord who cooked people for no apparent reason was a good person?of course not.

The masses don't care that they came up with such bad ideas, they will just push the problem to the executors.

Matthew had seen too much of this.

He wanted to establish a concept for these people. The Earldom of Lundebel was a place ruled by law, and the will of the lord here would not be higher than the law.

(Although the law is set by the lord himself)

Matthew looked around the audience seriously and said loudly: "Everyone, I know you are angry, and I also know that these bastards are hateful, but whether they deserve to die or not, I don't have any say."

The crowd is very excited. Doesn't it count even if you are the lord?

Amid their clamor, Matthew put his hands down and said loudly: "You ask me who has the final say? Of course the judge has the final say!"

"The Earldom of Lundebel is a place that respects the law."

"Soldiers, send these criminal suspects to the judge and give them the fairest trial."

Watching the soldiers escorting the prisoners away, the crowd was a little confused. What did the suspect mean?

They have done bad things and everyone has seen it, so what kind of procedures do they have to go through?

Of course, not every common person is ignorant, and some people have good taste.This Master Matthew seems to be different from the previous masters. Before the judge pronounced the sentence, he did not even call these people criminals.

Recalling that Mr. Matthew actually publicly promised to allow them to return to their homes after the disaster, the refugees were inevitably a little touched.

After a dozen bad elements lurking among the crowd were captured, Matthew comforted everyone and ordered everyone to be given a piece of white bread.

It was the first time for many people to eat white bread, and they all asked where such delicious bread came from.

The soldiers and staff who maintained order at the scene told them that this was the flagship product of Matthew Laoye Food Factory.

It is said that as long as the wheat is delivered to the master's workshop, it can be directly exchanged for bread.

Many refugees were reluctant to eat bread and wanted to preserve it, but the kind staff had to remind them that this bread could only be stored for a few days and they had to eat it quickly.

If you still want to eat, you can behave well.

"Here at Lord Count's house, as long as you are willing to work, you will never go hungry."

Although this sounds a bit outrageous, looking at the staff swearing by it, they have to believe it.

So the crowd spent their first night in Rundebel with great anxiety.

Although they felt uneasy, they were so exhausted from the journey that they all fell asleep after a short time.

They can rest, but some are destined to have trouble sleeping.

Matthew didn't have a good face towards the troublemakers who sneaked in.Under his order, the staff of the intelligence system and the police department went into battle with murderous intent.

Any criminal suspects are just performing for the refugees.These people are shameful spies, and what we have to do now is to get the information out of their mouths as soon as possible.

Matthew's request to the interrogating officers was simple.He didn't care how many of these spies died, he wanted accurate information.

Anyway, spies don’t have (harmonious) human rights even in modern society, let alone this ignorant world.

If they do, give them a treat.

If they won't confess, show them what hell is.

Since he is the Demon King of Lost Hearts, it makes sense to do something that only a Demon King would do.

Chapter 074: If you are stubborn to the end, you will die.

The interrogation went smoothly.

After a nightmarish night, most of the captured spies confessed.

The information they provided left Matthew frightened.

The Holy See really didn't want to let him go, but there were people besides the Holy See who reached out to Lundebel, which made him feel a little uneasy.

He vaguely felt a large net slowly spreading out.

The next morning, after breakfast, the intelligence chief came to report on the work. In addition to the latest intelligence obtained, there was also the fact that two spies committed suicide last night, and one spy would rather die than say a word.

Hearing that a spy committed suicide in the cell, Matthew gave the intelligence chief a cold look. Although he didn't speak, he still scared him half to death.

This is a major work mistake. Who knows what important information those two spies carry?

If it were an ordinary spy, there would be no need to be so exaggerated.

Matthew did not directly deal with the intelligence chief, but asked him to write a review and follow the procedures.

He is a dignified earl, and he directly oversteps his rank and punishes subordinate officials, which is really a devaluation.This is also his consistent style of handling affairs. He is determined not to do everything by himself and exhaust himself.

This refugee crisis, because the matter is so important, he will personally take part in the battle. As long as the situation stabilizes, he will definitely continue to be the boss.

If he was allowed to do everything, why would he pay a salary to these losers?

Arriving at the key cell where spies were held, Matthew met the most stubborn spy.

This man looked like a tough guy at first glance. Although he was beaten and bruised all over his body, and there were even marks of a soldering iron on his chest, he still didn't say anything.

Is a man.

Matthew expressed his appreciation for this man in his heart.If it had been him, he really wouldn't have been able to withstand such harsh torture.

It's a pity that he is an enemy and he will never show mercy.

When Matthew appeared opposite the spy, the badly beaten spy slowly raised his head and saw Matthew.

Although his eyes did not change much, his pupils shrank slightly.

Matthew opened the cell door and sat down across from the spy.

He took out a bottle of wine and braised beef wrapped in paper from his pocket and placed them in front of the spy.

"Is this a decapitation meal?" The spy's mouth became more mocking.

"Unless you can come up with enough information to save your own life, that's probably it." Matthew said calmly.

"You are honest, Lord Matthew." The spy looked at Matthew with a little surprise in his eyes.

"No, you are mistaken. I am not honest, but I never tell lies that are completely ineffective."

The spy didn't expect Matthew to be so direct, but he didn't know how to answer the question.

Matthew looked at the spy with burning eyes and said calmly: "I know you want to be hard, but have you forgotten something? Although it is purely slander for you to say that I am the Heartless Demon King, I am indeed good at soul magic. A little research.”

He snapped his fingers, and two jailers dragged a body from the side.

When the die-hard spy saw the corpse, the corner of his mouth trembled slightly, and this little movement did not escape Matthew's observation.

Matthew pointed to the corpse on the ground and said with a smile: "Dead people don't speak, but there are exceptions to everything."

He stared at the corpse and kept mumbling strange spells.

These spells sound particularly sinister, making die-hard spies feel creepy.

Just as his body was trembling slightly, the corpse lying on the ground slowly sat up, but there was no light in his eyes.

Matthew looked at the fake corpse coldly and asked in a weird accent: "Who are you?"

"Andy, Andy Rayson..." The corpse spoke slowly under the control of Matthew's soul, his voice hoarse and a bit cold.

The die-hard spy's hands kept shaking.

His heart was beating violently.

He even regretted not committing suicide with the hidden pills just now.

Someone committed suicide just now, causing the jailer to conduct a thorough investigation and take away the pills hidden under his tongue. He lost the means to commit suicide.

Under Matthew's questioning, [Corpse] answered intermittently.

Seeing this scene, the die-hard spy's psychological defense finally collapsed.

Matthew is indeed the devil.How could humans possibly play with their souls to such an extent?

Seeing [the corpse] being dragged away after explaining everything, the die-hard spy looked at Matthew blankly.

Matthew looked at the spy who was almost mentally broken, and said in a low voice: "Brother, it is not difficult to obtain information from your corpse, but it will consume a lot of mental energy. I hope you can save me this trouble."

"If you make me unhappy, I promise to give you an uneasy death."

This is by no means alarmist.Matthew has shown that he has this ability.The bad reputation of the Heartless Demon King now had a positive effect.
