Lawrence looked at the corpses on the ground with a heavy expression.

Sixty-two bodies.

"The Holy Light Church, the God of Dawn, will definitely pay the price!"

Lawrence drew his sword and looked at the thousands of people nearby.

"The souls of these sixty-two warriors will be watching me in heaven, waiting for the day when I will avenge them!"

"Sixty-two days later! After I pray for these sixty-two warriors and wish their souls to go to heaven, we will go and destroy the minions of the Church of Holy Light, the abominable Duke of Telangtao City!"

"Build weapons! Plant food! Build ships! Build houses! From now on, everyone's efforts, even if they just catch one more fish or cut down one more tree, will be turned into strength to avenge the dead compatriots!"

Lawrence doesn't want to fight, but blood debt must be paid with blood.

Not only the nobles of Pig Trotter City, but also the people of Dawn Church will have to pay the price for this!

The war mood in the Kingdom of Stars was quickly aroused. So many people died this time, and revenge must be taken!

Lawrence began to lead the crowd to bury the sixty-two people.

After the funeral, Lawrence began to prepare for revenge.

"Cassandra! Your father has seriously violated our cooperative relationship. What do he think of my people?!"

Lawrence did not tell the others about Lundive's surrender, not wanting the others to know that these sixty-two people died in such agony.

Just because he didn't say it didn't mean he would endure it, Lawrence completely ignored the relationship between Catherine and Cassandra.

"I will kill him! Revenge for my people!" Lawrence hated this kind of selfish coward!

But whenever Lentive was willing to take his men to seek refuge or escape together, Lawrence would continue to regard him as his father-in-law.

Surrendering and escaping don't count. The key point is to abandon others and survive alone. We are still a group of fighting warriors!

Cassandra said calmly: "I understand your thoughts and will not stop you. Those wizards are such cold-blooded existences."

Lawrence thought about how to avenge his men, and then thought of the Holy Light Church.

"Why did the people of the Holy Light Church oppose the wizards? Didn't they interfere with each other before?" Lawrence asked about the specific reasons for the war.

Cassandra sat elegantly across from Lawrence, with the dark elf maids Satis and Jade behind her.

Next to Lawrence were Saryl and Sophia, as well as Delenn, Kharan and others.

"The pastors of the Holy Light Church believe that only by gathering those with extraordinary power can a glorious miracle be achieved."

"Wizards in the East like to gather together and build wizard towers and ring towers."

"The wizards in the East have always been more powerful than here. This pope believes that gathering together will make the strong stronger. The scattered wizard families and witches in various cities are like bugs sucking magic power, making people who should gather together The magic is dispersed."

"Now many wizards and witches have fled to the east. Apart from the Church of the Dawn, there are no more than ten scattered wizards in the south. The Ancient Whisperer family is the last wizard family in the Kingdom of Northenri."

Witches are afraid of loneliness, but wizards are not afraid, especially wizards who have pursuits can tolerate loneliness.

He probably wanted to be the wizard emperor and get rid of everyone who could threaten him.

Lawrence narrowed his eyes, "Since the dispute cannot be resolved, and none of us want to resolve it, we can only see who can survive to the end!"

"I need the location of the Holy Light Church, preferably the locations of various churches and kingdoms along the coast!"

Lawrence abandoned his plan to recuperate and instead used his mobility and long-range artillery power to sack the southern coast.

Leave the rest and recuperation to the Western Kingdom and Sidr, and you will attract the population from these places. At the same time, it will be half-cultivated and half-military, giving full play to the barbarian's plundering expertise.

Kassandra quickly listed the eighteen kingdoms in the south based on her memory, combined with the memories of Kohalan and Jade.

Once you have the map, it's time to prepare your weapons.

Lawrence asked people to collect white powder from the toilet wall, and he and Lathander went to collect sulfur from a nearby volcano.

There were more than a basin of nitrate powder naturally produced in more than a dozen public toilets. Lawrence quickly processed it carefully, and after careful production, he developed black gunpowder.

Gunpowder is too dangerous and is mainly used against wizards and large numbers of enemies.

More important than gunpowder are artillery and ships.

Artillery is made by craftsmen and kept strictly confidential, and these people are not allowed to spread the technology.

Lawrence looked at the Oak in the shipyard.

The Oak is equipped with a rudder, iron planks, refined sails, anchors and oar power rooms. Together with a compass, it is the best large ship of this era.

But now Lawrence needs a better ship than the Oak!

"How long will it take for the Oak to be launched?" Lawrence looked at Reese, the shipwright.

Reese was counting the time every day, "Just wait until autumn is almost winter. It will take about seventy days."

Lawrence calculated the time and said, "If I give you another hundred people, how many days can it be faster?"

Reese thought for a moment and did not give a direct answer.

Lawrence waited patiently. Unreliable answers would only cause trouble. What Lawrence needed was an accurate answer.

"It can be shortened by five days." Reese said carefully: "If we make the boat planks and some places after launching it, we can launch it in sixty days."

Lawrence nodded, "Okay, I will come here often to help in the past two months, and I will also arrange for you to have a hundred people who can do the work to help."

"Yes, Prophet!" Reese felt that sixty days would definitely be enough, because the Prophet didn't just watch and urge, he would actually help!

With a prophet here to guide everyone, work will be much faster than usual, and coordination will be smoother.

"From now on, each person will add an egg a day and can go to the pub for a free glass of wine after dark."

Lawrence gave new incentives and mobilized shipbuilding craftsmen from the Wakili people to help and learn.

While he was busy building the "Oak", he also drew new ship designs in his free time.

[Vengeance Flame]!

The new generation of ships will be equipped with artillery and iron plates, and the combat method will also evolve from boarding combat to a combination of long-range artillery shooting and close combat boarding combat.

While busy with R\u0026D and construction work every day, Navia, who went back to her hometown to visit relatives, quickly returned to Dumport.

Not only the nobles of Durila came with them, but also merchants and traveling knights.

Not all children of knight families can become knights, and many people want to follow the nobles but cannot.

So after knowing that there were opportunities to make achievements here in the Kingdom of Stars, some young people, including five men, six men and seven men, began to gather here.

In addition to visitors from Western countries, slaves and farmers from Telland City also began to flee here on a large scale.

Because many people from Telanda City came to work before, and these people returned home safely for several years in a row, and brought back food and wages, which led to a high degree of acceptance by the outside world.

Many people who could only speak southern languages ​​also escaped. They were slaves and farmers in the Kingdom of Northenri.

The reason for coming here is very simple. There is no need to pay taxes here, and it is said that bread is provided.

There are no heavy taxes, and they will not kill and abuse people at will. As long as these two points are met, even man-eating tigers and aliens will still surrender.

It's not just upper-class people like Lundyf who will surrender, people at the bottom will also use their feet to choose where they can survive.

After the short summer, thanks to the large number of newborns and refugees, the population of Lawrence officially exceeded 20,000.

Lawrence and Earl of Stedel began to attack the city of Telanthoof, attacking the territory and manor of the Grand Duke of Pigtrotters. (End of chapter)
