Terra Martial God and Merit System

They hesitated, but Luo Chen would not hesitate.

The leading mercenary only felt a bloody shadow rushing towards him, and then he lost consciousness.

Lavinia stared at this scene in amazement. Luo Chen's killing was so fast and cruel that it was beyond her imagination.

Is this really something that the high and mighty Earl can do?

In comparison, Lavinia even felt that Luo Chen was an emotionless killer.

She also truly realized what Tallulah said when she talked to her once - 'The existence of Kamsko is not about us, nor about those capitalists.'

"The real key person... is only one person, and that is Luo Chen."

Lavinia did not quite understand this at the time.

In her eyes, Luo Chen promoted her to the position of the president of the court and then completely ignored her. He even ignored the law and killed people during the trial.

When he went to the city lord's office for something, the people he saw were either Tallulah or Afk. Luo Chen seemed to have disappeared.

Although Lavinia didn't say it explicitly, she always felt that Luo Chen was an irresponsible leader.

Now she saw...

Power.....it's more like 'fist power' than power.

Those who possess real power are truly convincing leaders.

The reason why Luo Chen can become the leader in everyone's hearts is not because of anything else, but because of his power, which can crush all opponents and bring the power of light to everyone.

"Ah..." Unlike Lavinia who was lost in thought, Lin Yuxia sighed slightly and then pressed her temples.

She could never accept the violent method of solving problems.

When a person dies, he is dead. There is no more.

Lin Yuxia had a vague feeling in her heart... maybe there was a way to let the farmers and these landlords survive together.

This is what she had always thought.

When she was in Longmen, Lin Yuxia believed that the slums of Longmen would one day become the "downtown area" where everyone could live happily.

but.....

The longer she stayed in Kamsco, the more confused Lin Yuxia's thoughts became.

This confusion was created on her own, with no one persuading or forcing her to understand.

Lin Yuxia just... just summed up the simplest truth from the copywriting she handled and the production reports -

It's really good for the world when some people die.

Luo Chen killed so many people in Kamsk, and as a result, his prestige reached its peak. People's living standards continued to improve.

Lin Yuxia did a small statistical analysis using the previous data. She found a very unexpected data...

The number of people killed by Luo Chen may not be as many as the number of people who froze to death in Kamsko last year.

This kind of cold data made Lin Yuxia feel the heaviness of the truly objective facts.

If I am right, it means that I believe the lives of nobles and officials are more valuable than the lives of the poor.

But this is obviously wrong.

Since what Luo Chen did was right, then the principles that he had believed in before were wrong.

This is a simple binary problem with no in-between values.

So watching Luo Chen killing everyone, Lin Yuxia just sighed slightly, without stopping him, nor getting angry. She just watched him killing everyone quietly.

The killing finally came to an end.

The private soldiers were so frightened that they fled in all directions and soon disappeared in the hall.

Luo Chen stroked his hair and wrung out a pool of blood.

He walked among the bodies, his shoes leaving a trail of bloody footprints on the floor.

"Let's go." He said calmly. It was as if he was not the one who had just slaughtered people. It was not him who had laughed and blown people's heads off.

"Aren't you...scared?" Lavinia asked as she looked at the messy hall.

"Why are you afraid?"

"You killed so many people. They were alive one second, but the next second..."

"They are not human." Luo Chen interrupted the other party, "Anyone who can be killed by me is not a human."

"They are beasts in human form, bastards who deserve to die."

"Lavinia, you should quickly understand how Kamesco works. Our laws serve the people."

"Aren't they the people?" Lavinia asked.

"What kind of people are those who climb over others' heads and bully others? If you say they are, they will probably jump up and scold you."

"Your next task is very heavy. You have to sort out the crimes of these people and make them public. As for how to sort them out... go ask the surviving villagers."

"Well... I was a little impulsive just now. I should judge them properly."

Luo Chen muttered and walked outside.

At this moment, Hablin outside had already captured a lot of people. These private soldiers who had lost their fighting spirit after being killed by Luo Chen threw away their armor and ran out, and were easily captured.

At this time, a small incident occurred. The townspeople who had welcomed Luo Chen before saw that Hamblin had surrounded the mansion and was still arresting people outside. So they became agitated and tried to attack their defense line.

Luo Chen walked out with a sneer, and after he blew a few heads off these people, they all behaved themselves.

Lavinia couldn't help but ask curiously-"How did you know they were bad people before?"

Luo Chen said before entering the mansion that these people were not normal townspeople, but Lavinia really didn't know how he knew that.

"It looks like," Luo Chen explained, "their faces are ruddy and a little greasy... According to the exploitation methods of these landlords, normal townspeople can't be like this."

".....I see."

Hamblin interrogated the captured person and obtained some information.

For example, most of these welcoming people were the landlords’ lackeys, and some were related to the landlords by blood.

In short, the welcome ceremony was a complete show.

For example, normal townspeople were ordered not to go out.

The last piece of news that interested Luo Chen the most was——

There is a small prison in Brown Snow Town, which holds slaves who were originally to be sold to the mines in the north.

Luo Chen immediately ordered Hamblin to lead the team to occupy the granary in Brown Snow Town, and then divided the troops.

Some guarded the granary and slaves, while others carried food to the prison.

The prison was not far from the town center, and Luo Chen and his friends arrived there in a short while.

It was a simple civil engineering structure with only a few guards. They all looked lazy and were completely unaware of Luo Chen's arrival.

There was no need for Luo Chen to take action. Hamblin led the team and took down these people with very skilled sneak attacks.

Under Hellagur's training, his military ability was very stable.

When they entered the prison, they found that the facilities were extremely dilapidated. The iron fences could even be broken with a little force.

And the reason why the guards were lazy also emerged.

Partly because they were confident that no one would attack the prison, but another major reason was...

The prisoners had no power to resist them.

Luo Chen looked around.

The prisoners were all in rags, lying in the straw pile, shivering, and their bodies were just skin and bones.

Prisoners like these are not in a physical condition to escape from prison.

"Lord, we have to give them food!" Hamblin said hurriedly.

They took out some food from the granary, which was enough to save the dying prisoners.

Even without Hamblin's order, some soldiers had already tried to take out the food they carried with them.

These soldiers had simple ideas, but Luo Chen's face changed and he stepped forward to take back the food they had sent out.

A woman whose dried meat was stolen started screaming and even wanted to pounce on Luo Chen.

"The city lord..."

"People who have been hungry for so long cannot eat these. Go and cook the porridge quickly." Luo Chen frowned and ordered.

“Haven’t you learned it?”

"No..." Hamblin was a little ashamed, "No one taught us this..."

“You really are…” Luo Chen sighed.

He suddenly realized that the training of these city defense troops was in the charge of Heragh, and the target of their training was the regular army of Ursus.

In other words, it is the kind of army that only knows how to fight and nothing else.

"No...what merit can I gain if my army can't even save the victims? I must have a good talk with Hellagur." Luo Chen made up his mind.

At the same time, the pot stood up straight.

The food was put into the pot, and the aroma of the food awakened the prisoners who were originally in a daze.

Luo Chen walked along the corridor, passing the cells one by one, and stretched out his hands to unlock the doors.

Without his request, the prisoners came out and began to distribute the porridge with the help of the soldiers.

"He is quite gentle..." Lavinia whispered.

"Gentle..." Lin Yuxia muttered the word.

She suddenly realized that this word that seemed completely inappropriate could actually be applied to Luo Chen.

Lin Yuxia saw Luo Chen carefully carrying a prisoner who couldn't walk out, and then carefully fed him porridge.

It is hard to imagine that Luo Chen just killed everyone in the room without blinking an eye.

"Gentle...really gentle." Lin Yuxia finally said, "Let's go and help."

Luo Chen required that each person only drink a small bowl of porridge and wait for a few hours before eating.

Although some prisoners were starving, under the control of the soldiers, not much chaos broke out.

With the help of food, the prisoners finally woke up gradually.

There was also some more spirit on their numb faces.

And one of the prisoners even walked straight to Luo Chen. He could see that Luo Chen was the leader here.

Although these prisoners were dressed in rags like everyone else, their backs were straight and they wore glasses on their faces.

He looked at Luo Chen and knelt down on the ground, "Thank you, benefactor."

"....." When the other prisoners saw him doing this, they followed suit. Even those who had fallen down due to hunger tried to struggle to stand up.

"Don't move." Luo Chen snorted, then lowered his head to look at the person in front of him, "Your accent is not right, it's not from Ursus, right?"

"Well, I'm from Colombia." When he mentioned 'Colombia', his eyes had a different color, but soon fell silent, "I... was infected because of something, and then I was caught here..."

"Hmm..." Luo Chen didn't seem to care about his identity and just nodded casually. "You guys rest here for a while, we will take you away for recuperation later."

"Where?"

"Kamsky."

"Excuse me....you are..."

"I am the mayor of Kamsko."

"City Lord?"

The other party looked Luo Chen up and down again.
