Chapter 1096, Sorcerer Town

“About how many people are there in the Sorcerer Kingdom,” Ren Xiaosu asked Meigo.

Mei Ge was in a difficult position, “If you want to ask me about sorcerers, I can still answer you, but if you want to ask me about this, I can’t answer.”

“You’re too ungrounded for a sorcerer,” Ren Xiaosu spat.

“Why do I care about this as a sorcerer,” Meiguo countered, “I’m not the only sorcerer who is like this, all sorcerers are like this, it’s fine to leave things in the secular society to be handled by the royal family, we just need to sit back and enjoy the benefits.”

Ren Xiaosu inwardly lamented, probably it was also such a thought that led to the Sorcerer Kingdom having been gradually left behind by Fortress 178.

What’s the point of a Sorcerer Heavenly Kingdom without a foundation, you guys aren’t true gods! You guys also need down-to-earth basic livelihoods in order to support your pyramid ah!

However, it was useless for Ren Xiaosu to say this to this silly white girl, Meggo.

He turned his head to the Knight Commander: “How many dependents are there in Yorkshire?”

The Knight Commander humbly replied, “Reporting back to Lord Prince, there are around 900,000, this is the number counted the year before last.”

“Are all living so miserably,” asked Ren Xiaosu.

“Almost all of them,” the Knight Commander replied, “But Yorkshire is just a relatively small county in the kingdom, with a small population, it can still barely support itself.”

Now Ren Xiaosu was relieved, he didn’t need to care how many people there were in the entire Wizard Kingdom, abducting this Yorkshire’s dependents would be enough to greatly prosper the Northwest.

Of course, he could abduct more, but just like what Wang Yuexiu said, the population that each barrier holds is limited, there is no need to pursue quantity.

Gradually, Ren Xiaosu was able to see towns in the distance.

Unlike the Central Plains, Ren Xiaosu looked down from a hill and realized that the highest houses in the town were only four stories high, except for the cathedral in the center of the town which was a bit taller, followed by a “relatively grandiose” tower-like building.

Said tower, in fact, the base of this tower is not too different from the church, if you let Ren Xiaosu describe it, it may be more like an old castle that you have read about in books.

This place was full of exotic flavors, so Ren Xiaosu couldn’t help but feel that this style of town was actually quite beautiful.

However, he was also well aware of the backward construction techniques and the poor carrying capacity of the population that this town also represented.

Ren Xiaosu doubted that this Wizard Kingdom’s city had a complete underground sewage system or running water system, and if it didn’t, it meant that when he got close to it, the stench would probably permeate the area.

“What about the usual water in the town?” Ren Xiaosu asked.

Mei Ge proudly said, “You did ask a question that I’m more concerned about, after I came to York Town I used my first year’s tax revenue to drill 180 water wells for the town dependents, solving the water problem that had plagued them for many years.”

Ren Xiaosu looked at Meigo dumbfounded, thinking to himself that you have something to be proud of ah big brother.

The difference between drilling 180 water wells and Ren Xiaosu’s previous means of greatly prospering the Northwest was just too far. The sorcerer kingdom may not have been in contact with the outside world for too long, or the sorcerer organization originally did not want them to be in contact with the outside world, so all of these people simply do not know what the rest of the world has become like.

Now that I think about it, 178 Fortress previously took the Sorcerer Kingdom as a great enemy, purely because one side had supernatural power and the other didn’t, so 178 Fortress suffered a lot of losses, including the earliest times when 178 Fortress didn’t actually have too strong a military base.

But now look at this sorcerer country again, this place is nothing if you throw away those sorcerers ……

At this time, Meiguo distantly pointed to the cathedral in the center of the town and said, “There is the Church of the Eye of True Sight, all the belongers as believers need to go there every week-end to worship, and the other magnificent building next to it is my Sorcerer’s Tower, how is it, is it spectacular?”

Ren Xiaosu didn’t have the good sense to say, “I don’t interrupt you because I don’t want to be angry with you anymore, but you can’t continue to show off ah, let me ask you, have you never seen the 178 fortress before, in terms of grandeur you’re not even close to that.”

Mego was choked for a moment, “That is a defense type fortress, I this is where I live, can it be the same?”

“Alright hurry up, I’m in a hurry to go read,” Ren Xiaosu urged.

After saying that he clipped the horse’s stomach and urged the horse to quickly march up, Meigo who was left behind had a helpless face but couldn’t say anything.

In a way, Mei Ge was actually treating Ren Xiaosu as a friend.

Only, the Li family knights at the back looked at each other with blank faces, it was the first time they had seen a sorcerer’s personal attendant dare to talk to a sorcerer like this.

The knights looked at Li Chengrui with puzzled faces, “Young master, why is he talking to Lord Meiguo like this ……”

Li Chengrui was expressionless and didn’t answer the question.

He only hoped that in the near future Ren Xiaosu wouldn’t talk to himself first, otherwise he would lose face in front of his own knights.

However, this world really thinks what it wants, only to see Ren Xiaosu suddenly turn around and shout at him, “Sheepman, what are you two doing, keep up!”

Knights: “……”

The corners of the eyes of Li Fruit and Liu Ting kept twitching, they felt that it was time to have a good talk with Ren Xiaosu, as long as the other party didn’t call them Sheep People, let them shell out whatever they wanted!

A group of people slowly entered the town, only at this point did Mei Ge completely breathe a sigh of relief, because the people who wanted to kill him were afraid that they wouldn’t dare to do it.

However, right at this time, Ren Xiaosu suddenly said, “Be careful, there are suspicious characters.”

Mei Ge’s heart and mind flinched, as he swept his eyes, the roadside was filled with subordinates who were half-kneeling and bowing to him, there was nothing out of the ordinary.

“Don’t look around,” Ren Xiaosu whispered, “Be careful of spooking the snakes.”

The towns of Yorkshire didn’t even have walls, as if they didn’t have the slightest notion of an invading war.

When they entered the place Ren Xiaosu noticed that although the belongers bowed their heads and saluted one by one, there was one person whose gaze was fixed on Meigo.

Ren Xiaosu didn’t want to strike in public, but he also didn’t want to startle the other person away, in case he did, where would he go to harvest the Eye of True Sight?

And although Meiguo didn’t find anything, he still sat upright on the horse, before if Ren Xiaosu wasn’t alert, he would have died in the Fire Pillar Technique, so Meiguo believed in Ren Xiaosu’s judgment.

Just that he couldn’t figure it out, the other party was going to do it in the town?

Mei Ge muttered in a low voice, ”Which one has a problem? You can tell me, I will directly order the knights to capture him, I have the power to command everyone in Yorkshire.”

“There’s no need to make a noise, the other party has already left quietly,” Ren Xiaosu suddenly asked, “If I kill a bounty hunter in public and take his Eye of True Sight, how will the wizard organization treat me?”

“Of course, it will recover the Eye of True Sight back from you,” said Mego, “Don’t get this idea, you can’t beat a bounty hunter, even I may not be able to.”
