Accompanied by the sword energy that seemed to be able to destroy everything, a building in a slum collapsed with a loud bang.
However, the person who unleashed this blow obviously failed to achieve his goal.
"One day, I will cut open the stomachs of everyone present. Until then, you must take good care of your intestines."
After using the last short blade to restrain Reinhardt, Elsa, who left her heroic words behind, used the abandoned building as a foothold, and finally bought time to jump onto the roof. She was as light as a swallow.
She easily crossed the building and disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.
Guthunter is undoubtedly a very good assassin, so good that when she decides to escape, even Reinhardt has a hard time catching up.
After weighing between "spending a lot of time chasing down the hunter who has been seriously injured and the threat has been greatly reduced" and "giving up the pursuit and letting the guards continue to hunt down the hunter, he will return to His Highness as soon as possible", Reinha
Root finally decided not to pursue him.
After all, the Sausage Hunter has been seriously injured by him, and now she basically has to lie down when she encounters the guards. It can be said that there is no threat in a short time, and there is no need for him to hunt her down personally.
So after watching Elsa disappear, Reinhardt, who ordered the guards to pursue her, had the energy to care about the innocent people affected by this incident.
They were an old man who seemed to be a giant, and a little blond girl who was about fourteen or fifteen years old.
The old man's injuries were not too serious. After the magic treatment, he was out of danger, but he was still in a coma. But the little girl's injuries were much more serious - her stomach was opened widely by Elsa.
A hole.
——It's his fault!
Reinhardt closed his eyes in self-blame, his heart filled with guilt and regret.
He was always like this, blaming himself for everyone's injuries, even if strictly speaking, the little girl and the old man's injuries were completely not his fault.
"Okay, it has been temporarily stabilized." The blue light belonging to the water magic faded away. The knight responsible for treating the injured raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and said to Reinhardt: "This old man
I can cure it, but this little girl is too seriously injured, so I can only temporarily stabilize her injury."
"I'll take her to seek help from Felice," Reinhardt said without any hesitation.
This is his fault, and he must be responsible for healing the other person.
…
Crusch Karustan was never a person who only felt sorry for himself.
So after understanding how much she had neglected in the past because of her arrogance, she began to actively make amends.
And the reason why she is so busy these days is because she is busy with these things.
"I have posted notices in my territory, looking for those with talents..." Crusch Karustan rubbed his eyebrows and described his decision to Lin Ling, "But the effect does not seem to be very good...
…”
She paused here and smiled bitterly, "My subjects don't seem to believe me..."
Hearing this, Lin Ling raised her eyebrows and was not surprised. Class is not something that can be easily broken. The common people of Lugnika Kingdom have been regarded as ignorant by the nobles for too long. The gap caused by this is definitely not limited to the nobles.
Unilaterally looking down on the common people, even the common people themselves have developed the illusion that they are inherently inferior, and it is even less likely that they will believe that nobles will reuse them because of some of their "unremarkable" craftsmanship.
To put it bluntly, the common people no longer have trust in the promises made by the nobles, even if they face a lord like Crusch Karustan.
So he said, "Maybe you need a role model."
"Role model?" Crusch was stunned for a moment. As smart as she was, she had already vaguely realized something, but she still looked at Lin Ling doubtfully and motioned for him to explain.
"Yes, a role model." Lin Ling nodded and said unhurriedly, "I have seen a story in an ancient book, called Thousands of Gold to Buy Bones. It is said that in an ancient empire, there was a courtier who bought bones for a thousand dollars.
The king bought a thousand-mile earth dragon, but only bought the bones of a dead earth dragon. The king was very angry about this, and at the same time he was puzzled."
"Facing the furious king, the courtier explained that if everyone saw that the king was willing to buy back the bones of Qianli Earth Dragon with a lot of money, they would think that the king really wanted to buy Qianli Earth Dragon at a high price, and they would naturally give Qianli Earth Dragon away
Come to your door. It turned out that it was true as the courtiers said, within a year several thousand-mile earth dragons were presented to the king."
Because there are no such creatures as horses in other worlds, Lin Ling simply changed the horse in Qianjin Buying Bones into an earth dragon.
"What is the Thousand Mile Earth Dragon? Meow?" Phyllis asked in confusion.
"It's that earth dragon that runs a thousand miles a day." Lin Ling explained it literally, without changing his expression.
"Can you run a thousand miles in a day? So amazing!" Phyllis marveled, but her eyes were also thoughtful. Obviously, our Lord Knight is not stupid, and he also understood the meaning of Lin Ling's story.
"So what you mean is that I take the initiative to find a person, give a heavy reward, and make everyone aware of it?" Crusch said, his eyes lit up, and he had obviously thought of the meaning of doing this.
"Yes..." Lin Ling nodded and reminded again, "And this example must be real, so that the effect will be best."
"I understand..." Crusch nodded, and had already begun to think about what would be the best way to do this, when he heard Lin Ling say:
"By the way, Crusch, what do you think about serfs?"
"Serf?" Cruxiu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lin Ling, and found that the latter was looking at her very seriously at this moment.
…
The royal capital of Lugnika is not too big, but due to the speed limit of the dragon carriage, it still took a not too short period of time from getting on the dragon carriage to arriving at Karustan's mansion.
And when Natsuki Subaru jumped off the dragon carriage and looked at the building in front of him that was definitely not comparable to ordinary houses in civilian areas, he was also slightly amazed.
"Crusch, this is your home? It's so big!" Natsuki Subaru couldn't help but said when he caught a glimpse of Crusch getting off the dragon cart next to him.
Facing this compliment that was not a compliment, Crusch smiled and said: "Please forgive me for not being able to entertain you personally. There are some things that I need to handle personally... Felice, I will leave the guests to you.
!”
"Don't worry, leave it to me, meow!" Phyllis waved her hand, signaling Crusch not to worry.
Cruxiu took another look at Lin Ling, who had an innocent face, rubbed his brows, and walked to the study.
She had just received some relatively advanced ideas from Lin Ling. For example, the labor force generated after the emancipation of serfs into civilians would be far greater than before. For example, a suitable supervision system and competition system could better mobilize people's enthusiasm for work...
These ideas undoubtedly had an impact on Crusch Karustan's outlook on life, but with such a broad mind, she could vaguely feel that Lin Ling was right.
So she needs to take a moment and think carefully now!
