Just when Angus set off for the Jieshui Peak in the north, almost the entire poor people in the port area were moved by the news.

Not everyone is as neurotic as Angus's thief mentor.

From their point of view, it is not so difficult to understand that the Magic Academy of Kishui City made such a move... with the weird Hog Workshop as a reference.

After all, it is also the centenary anniversary of the establishment of the Magic Academy. Isn't it normal to spend a little "stingy" food and materials to invite names?

Therefore, there is no restriction on the children under his control from going there, and they even have a mentality of taking advantage of the welfare and picking up some advantages.

Due to the disgusting 'Evil Detection' circle in the Magic Academy, many thieves guild leaders would even take the initiative to organize children who were originally too timid to go to collect supplies, but would ask them to do so after returning.

When you arrive at the port area, hand over most of it.

"But we have also stolen a lot of things and deceived people into giving alms... Will we all be arrested by the guards?"

A skinny child timidly asked the leader of the neighborhood gang.

But the leader kicked him in the butt: "Go if you are told! You know nothing! This is detecting evil! Do you understand evil? It is not a selection of little angels! Just you? Are you still evil? Bah!

Those guards think you are wasting your jail time by arresting you!"

Scenes like this happened in many places in the port city.

Many children and poor people who are secretly controlled by gray forces in the port city are afraid that they have failed to maintain their good intentions, which may lead to them being turned away or even arrested, but many people do not know this common sense.

That is, if we only talk about the camp determination of good and evil, there are three types, namely good, neutral and evil.

The hard and difficult years may have caused them to do many things that were against their true intentions, but at most it made them deflect from kindness to neutrality. If they want to reach the standard of evil, most people are far from satisfied.

Man is a herd-like creature. Seeing this mighty army of spectators flocking to the Jishui Peak in the north, many hesitant poor people followed suit.

For them, those five pounds of meat alone were enough to make them excited. As long as they ate sparingly and cut off a small piece every day, it would be enough for them to survive this 'Dead Winter Day'.

The reason why the "Day of Dead Winter" is called "The Day of Dead Winter" is that every year, the "Day of Dead Winter" will literally take away many fragile lives that are poorly prepared and unexpected.

As long as they can really get those five pounds of meat, even if they think there is a risk of being arrested, it is better than starving to death and freezing to death this winter.

Sometimes, as long as people can continue to live, their requirements for other aspects will become very low...very low...

This incident done by these evil forces saved Li Wei a lot of effort. Originally, he was worried that the 'sitters' he hired were not enough, but now he can reduce his expenses in this area.

Even because of the abominable rule of distributing supplies on a per-person basis, almost all the old, sick and disabled people in the entire port area were dispatched, and even those who could not move had to be carried on their backs. For this reason, many "enthusiastic volunteers" riding tricycles appeared in the port area.

It's like moving piggies around for free for those with mobility impairments.

Originally, some people were worried that the so-called holiday benefit distribution would have many restrictive requirements, such as showing a 'resident identity certificate' and so on. Many people in the port area don't even have houses. Where can I get the certificate? There may be people who are responsible.

The guards who responded to this matter said, "Distribution has been completed."

As a result, when people arrived at the square on the mountainside, they discovered that as long as they lined up in order and passed an 'inspection checkpoint', as long as a blood-red light did not suddenly appear above their heads, they could receive a real five pounds of meat and a scarf.

.

Some children were worried that they would dirty their beautiful and warm scarves and annoy the neighborhood bosses. They were trembling and rubbing their dirty little hands on their tattered cotton pants when they were stopped by the pretty girl who called herself a "volunteer"

The eldest sister put the scarf around his cold and red neck, revealing only a pair of slightly red eyes.

He sniffed and almost cried on the spot.

Half of it was touching. No stranger had ever been so 'nice' to him.

The other half was afraid...this furry scarf must have been handed over originally...but now...it was stained by him, and the leader would definitely beat him.

When the heavy five pounds of meat fell behind his hands, the child stopped trembling instantly and felt that his whole body was red and in a trance.

Born in the port area, perhaps he has never had such a large piece of meat since his birth.

'It's a pity...it will no longer be mine soon.'

The child received the supplies and turned around to rush to the port area, but was stopped.

"Children, after receiving the supplies, you have to watch the fireworks on the mountain before going down the mountain!" explained the volunteer senior.

"Why? But I just want to receive food, not watch any fireworks."

The senior sister rolled her eyes and said, "Look, if you turn around and hide something, then turn around and continue to receive it, how can we tell the difference?"

"...Okay then." Not to mention, he was really planning to do this, and then he would be able to hand over one share and keep the other for free.

Unfortunately...

Plan collapsed!

This kind of situation of getting ready to run away after receiving the things was something that Li Wei and others had anticipated, so they also prepared this set of rhetoric for the Jishui City students who were "volunteers".

If everyone is detained forcefully, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of some of the "eyes" and inform the port area in advance.

But such a 'reasonable' reason is enough to make those guys who are already 'taking advantage of others' stay honestly out of a certain guilty conscience.

...

Just as the entrance to the ceremony and distribution of supplies on the mountainside were in full swing, a long queue also formed in front of the Lord's Mansion in the castle area.

However, these people are not poor people, but guards, soldiers and knights in Jishui City who have taken off their armor and weapons, numbering eight thousand in total.

This number is naturally a very exaggerated ratio for the city of Jishui with a population of 120,000. This is a military establishment that had to be formulated in the face of the threat of trolls and orcs from the north.

They are somewhat similar to the military system of Levi Blue Star. They usually engage in their own trades. Once they face the threat of invasion from the north, they will join the battle. At that time, the militia will be recruited in large numbers according to the situation.

I don’t know what the wind is blowing this year. Not only did the Magic Academy give out benefits to everyone, but their Kelburn masked lord also stated that in order to reward them for their hard work and silent protection this year, he decided to use black

In the name of the Stick Workshop, each of them will be given a 'Midwinter Festival' mysterious gift package.

However, when they receive it, the person responsible for distributing it will tell them not to open the 'gift package' for the time being, and to wait together while the lord will give a speech.

Although this rule makes the sergeants a little confused, but because of the "soft-tongued" nature, it is difficult to say bad words with such a "thick" gift package in hand.

After everyone had collected the money, the entire lawn in front of the Lord's Mansion had been trampled beyond recognition, and it was completely black and filled with human figures.

Along with the sound of breaking wind, Kelben, the lord of Jishui City, finally arrived.

He looked around the audience and said with an elegant smile: "I am very happy that you are able to gather here at this time of year, because my private thoughts are gathered here. I think many people are already guessing what I have prepared for you, right?

"

There was a smile of goodwill in the audience.

"Now, open the packages in your hands."

Accompanied by dense tearing sounds.

The contents of the gift bag finally appeared in front of them.

At the top is a sparkling disaster coin!

Seeing that gold coin, everyone's breath stopped.

Even for them, it would take more than half a year of hard work and frugality to save a disaster coin.

By this time, some people were already feeling uneasy.

Because... there is a truth that is common to most of the world.

That is under heavy remuneration...

You must ask for something!

really.

Being pressed under that heavy gold coin.

It's a brand new leather armor...

A sharp sword!

Many people instantly thought of... based on today's various weird situations...

That cruel and bloody battle more than forty years ago...
Chapter completed!
