Chapter 257 Population

With the death of the orc commander, the orcs who were originally scattered in the sand had no resistance at all. They retreated steadily under the three-way attack of Zhenbei City, and soon fled in all directions. It's just that it's not that easy to escape, and there are four hundred centaur archers and centaur cavalry waiting for them outside the camp.

The battle ended when the east turned white, the orc corpses in the camp were also cleaned up by the human slaves, and the centaurs who were chasing outside the camp also returned to the team.

As for those human slaves, a lot of people took advantage of the war to escape last night, but they were caught by the harpies in the sky. The banshee's reputation is notorious in the human world.

"Lord Lord, all the human slaves are here, except for some who ran out last night and were accidentally injured, the rest are here." A attendant came to Su Lun and said.

"How many people have you counted?"

"Eleven thousand eight hundred and thirty-seven."

Su Lun's eyes lit up, "It seems that this time the harvest is very good!"

Next, Suren gathered these slaves, and then re-divided the team, preparing to leave with these human slaves.

"Master noble, thank you for saving us from the evil orcs." At this moment, a human stepped forward and saluted Su Lun.

"You're welcome, after all, you are my property now!" Su Lun said with a smile.

"Uh, noble gentlemen, we are residents of Winter City, not slaves." The middle-aged man said with a frown.

Su Lun raised his eyebrows: "Residents of Winter City? Hey, I don't have any residents of Winter City here, only slaves rescued from orcs."

Hearing that Su Lun said they were slaves, these humans also became agitated: "Grandpa noble, we are really residents of Winter City, not slaves."

"Yes, let us out, we are citizens of the kingdom, not slaves!"

"We're going home!"

The whole scene instantly became like a bustling city, and the humming was endless.

"Silence!" A loud shout sounded, instantly suppressing all the voices, and the scene was clear. The weapons of the surrounding Zhenbei City soldiers also lit up. Seeing this, these people immediately quieted down.

"It seems that you haven't realized your position yet." Su Lun said with a sneer.

"You don't know yet, the orc army has entered the northern provinces, and is now besieging the city of Carth. There are 100,000 orcs in the entire northern land."

"Not only here, there are orcs in other places as well, do you still want to go home?"

"Without my protection, as long as you leave the camp, it won't take long for you to be caught again by the orcs, and it shouldn't be killed! The army of orcs last night suffered heavy losses, and the orcs will not be kind to you slaves! "

"Don't expect the kingdom to send someone to save you. Now the kingdom's army is fighting fiercely with the orcs, and they don't care about you at all. Now tell me, is anyone leaving?" Su Lun said coldly.

Everyone lowered their heads after meeting Su Lun's gaze.

"Now I'll give you a chance." After looking around, Su Lun continued.

"I am the lord of Zhenbei City, Su Lun, the lord of northern land development. I can promise that as long as you work for me for three years, I can relieve him of his slave status and give him a piece of land!"

"In Zhenbei City, you don't have to worry about the attack of the orcs, and after you get your freedom, I can promise that the tax on the land will be 30%. As long as the law is not violated, the tax will not increase."

After Su Lun finished speaking, the vast majority of these humans no longer objected, and some people who were still unwilling did not dare to make the slightest movement surrounded by the soldiers of Zhenbei City, and soon the two sides completed a pleasant exchange.

Suren separated some soldiers and harpies and asked them to escort these human slaves to the Blackstone Fortress. When they arrived at the Blackstone Fortress, these people would be divided into a team of 100, and then ten teams and ten teams would migrate to Zhenbei City.

After processing these human slaves, Suren opened the system log to check.

"Congratulations, host, under your leadership, your army defeated an orc army, and you won a big victory."

"Victory in the battle, you have gained 3,620 experience points."

"Congratulations, host, you have obtained a golden treasure chest! You have obtained a piece of star iron."

Open the system space freely, and then choose to open the golden treasure chest, and the system prompt will sound.

"Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the item "Mechanical Control"!"

An ordinary book appeared in front of him, Su Lun took the book out and looked at the attributes.

[Mechanical Control: This is a book that records advanced mechanical knowledge. It is difficult for people without basic knowledge to understand it. After learning it, you can master more advanced mechanical knowledge. Learning conditions: You need to master and learn "Mechanical Control"]

It is actually an advanced book on mechanical manipulation. After seeing the introduction of this book, Su Lun's eyes lit up. This book on mechanical manipulation is very helpful to Su Lun. Now that he has advanced knowledge, he is very helpful to this book. The knowledge in books is more expected.

Directly choose to study, a flash of light flashed, the book disappeared immediately, and a large amount of knowledge appeared in his mind in the next second. At the same time, the system prompt sounded in his ear again.

"The host uses mechanical control, and the mechanical control ability is upgraded to mechanical control."

In addition to the mechanical control, there is an advanced option in Su Lun's skill bar, you can choose to advance the mechanical control to magic technology, but the advanced option is still gray, and there is still a lack of advanced conditions.

For magic technology, Su Lun is very interested, because the construction of the wizard tower and the floating city requires magic technology.

"Lord Lord!" A soldier with a scar on his face and wearing armor came to Su Lun, bowed and saluted: "Your Excellency, when we patrolled again, we found some people in that forest."

"They call themselves the nobles of Winterfell, who escaped when the orcs broke through the city."

"Noble? Hehe, according to the laws of Florence, the nobles who abandoned their territories and fled in the war will be expelled from the title of nobles, and they will also take back their fiefs." Su Lun said with a chuckle.

This is also the reason why those nobles have already escaped, but they dare not go to Carter City or the Royal City, because they are likely to bleed heavily when they get there. With most of the losses, the current king has always wanted to weaken the power of the nobles.

"Bring them here." Su Lun ordered.

Soon a group of people came here, led by several soldiers. The leader was a middle-aged man who was over two meters tall. He was wearing a knight's armor with many pits and pits. Several people were still wearing bandages. Obviously, these people had experienced a hard fight.

The middle-aged man at the head had a resolute face and a somewhat indifferent expression. He should have the blood of the northern barbarians, and he also carried an imposing manner, which can only be obtained by fighting. This knight is likely to be a general.

When Su Lun had a large number of these people, these nobles were also in large numbers of him, but Su Lun should have felt too many of them.

The first impression is that he is handsome! Extraordinarily handsome!

Ah, the damn immersion!

Although black-haired and black-eyed humans are rare in Florence, they are not rare, but this young man gave them a feeling like facing a mountain, which made them involuntarily restrain themselves.

The second feeling is youth. Although they don't know how old Suren is, they can be sure that they will never be older than twenty. Such a young man actually possesses such a strong aura, and he is also the controller of this powerful army. These nobles have been pondering over and over in their hearts which descendant of a big family has come out to experience.

It's just that they thought about it, but they didn't find a corresponding candidate.

There were fifteen nobles who came here, and one of them was seriously injured. Su Lun glanced at it. If there was no treatment, this guy would not be able to survive today. Then he snapped his fingers, and a pale green light flashed.

- Physiotherapy!

Green life energy appeared, and then merged into the body of the injured person. The serious injury began to recover quickly, and soon the seriously injured person recovered from a near-death state to a moderate injury. This kind of injury only takes a period of cultivation. will recover.

The people in front of them all had some wounds on their bodies. Only a thin figure in a gray cloak was not injured, which naturally attracted Su Lun's attention.

"My esteemed Excellency, thank you for your help!" The middle-aged knight headed towards Su Lun with a standard knightly salute.

"No thanks, it's just a gesture of help." Su Lun waved his hand.

"Can I ask your name? We will come to thank you later." The thin figure who had been under the protection of the knights came to Su Lun. Judging from the voice, it should be a young woman, and the imposing middle-aged knight took a step back and stood behind her.

"I am the lord of Zhenbei City, Su Lun." Su Lun said with a smile.

"Zhenbei City? Su Lun?" Hearing Su Lun's words, the man was slightly taken aback, but after thinking for a while, he didn't remember the location of Zhenbei City in the northern provinces. And Su Lun's name also made her a little confused. She didn't have a surname, how could she tell which noble family it was?

In fact, Su Lun did not have a surname. This name was his previous life's name, and Su was his surname, but according to the habits of this world, Su Lun did not have a surname.

"Zhenbeicheng!" The middle-aged knight next to him exclaimed, and after looking at Su Lun a few times, he explained to the nobleman.

"Zhenbei City is the pioneering territory on the northern wasteland!"
