From Wild Mage to Wizard King

Chapter 284 The Great Purge (Part 3)

Country families like the Salin family almost all control a large number of serfs and slaves. In addition, a large amount of land in the rural areas also belongs to them.

Even a few free people are under their control in all aspects.

Moreover, during the period of the local faction's rule, taxes and soldiers from all over the country were also collected by them.

It goes without saying that they will definitely make a lot of money for themselves, and most of them will also raise private soldiers to do evil in the countryside, so that they control all aspects of the countryside, like local emperors.

The local faction only wants to exploit the civilians, so they are naturally willing to collude with them.

Taxes are all collected by the tax-farming system. As long as enough taxes are paid, the local faction does not care what these country families do in the countryside.

But the War Committee is different. For future planning, the committee needs a large population and a large amount of land, and needs a lot of resources and wealth.

And these, these country families just have.

So, for the great cause of the War Committee, they can only be sent to death.

The committee's purge was ostensibly a suppression of local factions and local separatist forces, but in reality it was more of a massacre and plunder of rural families under various names.

Perhaps many innocent people who did not deserve death would die at the hands of the rural group.

Even though Roland issued various auxiliary tools to minimize the death of innocent people, he knew that this was bound to happen.

However, Roland also knew that wearing white gloves, not wanting to get anything dirty, and making himself a white lotus, would not save Donnar.

The committee needed population and land, and they just had them.

If there was no green tide, Roland might have been gentler, using coercion and inducement to slowly buy off the land. Unfortunately, given the current situation of the committee, it was impossible to spend such a high price to buy off the land, so they could just use iron-blooded means to rob it.

Whether it was the title deed of the Donnar Knight Kingdom or the title deed of the Locke Rebellion, what did it have to do with our War Committee? We did not inherit these legal principles, so we did not recognize them at all.

In the Salin family manor, Harber led the soldiers along the way, and they also killed along the way.

After realizing that the newcomers were not kind, Harber had no intention of communicating and compromising with them, and only wanted to kill their whole family, the Salin family finally couldn't sit still.

When Harber was moving forward, a large number of slave soldiers were driven to block in front of Harber.

For these slaves who had been completely enslaved, Harber and the soldiers did not show any mercy. They raised their knives and killed all of them as long as they dared to approach.

However, although Harber and the soldiers killed along the way, most of them were completely tamed slaves, and at most there were a few attendants in charge of command. The real private soldiers of the Salin family had never been encountered.

In this regard, Harber was not in a hurry. He estimated that these private soldiers were still gathering, and they would be killed when they met.

A mere country family, no matter how many and how good the private soldiers were, could they still fight against them?

Even if the car turned over, Harber and others could still be resurrected. Can they do it?

However, as he went deeper into the manor, Harber became very cautious. He kept the reconnaissance spell and observed the surrounding environment without any slackness.

After killing all the slaves who rushed over again, Harber raised his head slightly and gestured twice with his left hand behind his back as if nothing had happened.

The soldiers who were paying attention to Harber also saw his gestures, cooperated with each other, pretended to be powerless and fell behind, and quietly adjusted the team.

Then, the group continued to advance and arrived in front of a stone wall.

Harber raised his head slightly and looked at the tall stone wall in front of him.

While Harber was looking, a large number of figures suddenly appeared on the empty stone wall. One by one, the archers drew their bows and fired a wave of rapid shots at Harber.

Just as the arrows were flying towards them, the front-line soldiers who had been prepared immediately smashed their shields on the ground, injected their own energy, and formed a shield covering all members.

While the shield was formed, Harber handed the long sword in his hand to the clerk beside him and carefully took out a magic book from his arms.

This was made by Roland himself as a reward for his good work in the past two years.

This is a growing magic book that can grow stronger with him. It is very precious.

It is said that high-level spells are required to make this kind of magic book, and it is very troublesome. Even in the Tower of Truth, there are not many high-level spellcasters who can do this.

Moreover, as high-level spellcasters, they are not short of money and will not deliberately spend time to make this kind of magic book.

Unless you are the juniors or apprentices of those high-level spellcasters, it is almost impossible to get a growing magic book.

I heard that Roland gave less than ten copies, which is very precious.

Since Harber got it, he has been keeping it close to him 24 hours a day, for fear of losing it.

However, as a magic book, it cannot be kept for a long time. It still needs to be used.

He opened the magic book and began to cast spells.

Under the protection of arrows and shields, he successfully completed the spell.

When all the arrows were blocked, the soldiers in the front row raised their shields, and the shields covering all the soldiers dissipated.

Then, a huge fireball hit the stone wall.

"Bang!"

The fireball hit the stone wall, and after a huge explosion, a big hole was blasted out of the stone wall.

At the same time, groups of fire splashed out, and some archers who were close became the first unlucky ones. They were ignited by the flames, wailing and rolling on the ground, trying to extinguish the flames.

However, the magic flames were not so easy to extinguish. Their rolling accelerated the spread of the fire and their own death.

The flames spread on the stone wall and rushed towards the archers around.

Facing the flames that could not be extinguished and could even burn on the stones, the archers on the stone wall were terrified and fled frantically.

At the gap in the stone wall, countless rubble smashed into the interior of the stone wall, covered by flames, and the burning rubble carried kinetic energy and flames and fell directly on the private army behind the stone wall, ready to go.

Under the double blow of rubble and flames, the private army, who had never thought of being attacked, was in chaos.

Harber would not miss this opportunity. He took the weapon from the clerk beside him, raised it and shouted loudly.

"Soldiers, follow me!"

After saying that, Harber gave himself an elemental shield and rushed to the gap.

Seeing Harber rushing, the remaining soldiers naturally followed him and rushed to the gap.
