Chapter 823 Adele’s missionary journey
"What, you said you planned to stay?" Ilea was a little surprised.
Adele nodded, "Servants Columbus, Servants Ivan, and most of the soldiers and trainee soldiers will continue to follow your army and treat the wounded for you."
Miss Rabbit frowned, "Then what can you do with only a few of you left?"
"I know I can't save everyone, but I can save as many people as I can."
"The problem is that it's not safe around here." The female lord frowned even more tightly. "I just asked a villager. He said he was robbed a week ago, and then again three days ago. This morning He also encountered another group of robbers, and this was the seventh time he had been robbed during this period.”
"It's okay for you to follow the army, but as soon as we leave, those robbers and bandits will definitely come back."
"I know that I left a hundred Black Dog Guard soldiers to protect me and these villagers, and I also contacted the Order. Lady Mary said that she would summon the nearby warriors to come and help."< br>
Ilea's brows relaxed a little. She knew very well about the combat effectiveness of the Black Dog Guards. The soldiers of Shuangxiujiao were equipped with the best equipment, and after being trained by Duren, their skills had also improved a lot. Big progress.
Even if the regular army faced them, they had little chance of winning, let alone those bandits and robbers.
With these one hundred people here, at least Adele's safety can be guaranteed.
Miss Rabbit thought for a while and said, "How about I leave another three hundred people for you."
Adele quickly waved her hand and said, "No, no, one hundred black dog guards are enough. I am saving people, not fighting, and..."
"And what?"
"And your guards might scare these villagers."
Ilea was convinced. Solomon had summoned many nobles to come over and buy them for zero dollars. These people were probably robbed.
So she nodded, "Okay, then protect yourselves. If you encounter any danger, you can come to me for help in front."
When Adele agreed, she took the people away and left twenty carts of bread and water behind.
Adele and the dozen or so knights who stayed behind stopped loading people into the carriage and started distributing food on the spot.
However, after a while, I noticed a commotion behind me. It was discovered that someone had finished eating the small piece of bread, grabbed someone else's, and even hit the person's head with a stone to bleed.
Adele immediately rushed over with her men, and a Black Dog Guard warrior easily subdued the assailant without even pulling out his sword.
But then Adele was in trouble. This person's behavior just now was very bad and almost killed someone.
But he committed the murder just out of hunger. When he saw Adele and others coming, he didn't have the strength to run away. He just stuffed the bread into his mouth desperately.
Adele sighed and said, "Find a place to lock the person up first. Don't give it to him when you give out food later. Let him know that robbing is wrong."
After saying this, she asked someone to bandage the injured man and brought him another piece of bread.
Adele and a group of monks continued to distribute food. Gradually, even the villagers in the distance were not so afraid and gathered around little by little.
After learning that they were both retired from teaching, many people showed surprise on their faces.
Obviously people here have also heard of the name of Shuangxiujiao.
Knowing that the god behind this church had just unleashed his divine power, he defeated the Wing tribesmen and their allies.
For the people in this land that has been poisoned by the invaders, their original beliefs have collapsed, and they are eager to find new beliefs to help them resist the suffering they are facing.
There is no doubt that teaching on weekends is the best choice, and the female nurse in the lead seems to be particularly kind.
So before Adele could give her sermon, people around her were rushing to ask how they could join the Shuangxiu Cult.
They also hope that Adele can take them out of here.
Adele reassured, "You can wait a little longer. Sir Ilea has just led an army to attack the Cornucopia."
"Lord Wilder is also a Saturday believer now. When he takes back the Cornucopia, everyone can go back to the old days. Oh, no, it will be better than before."
However, as soon as she finished speaking, someone said, "It's impossible."
"Why do you say that?" Adele asked.
"There are robbers everywhere here now, and we can no longer survive." The man's words were agreed by many people.
Before Adele could say anything, she heard another burst of crying, and someone was stumbling towards this side.
It was a farmer in ragged clothes, crying and saying, "Where are the adults who are on vacation? Please save my wife and daughter!"
"Uncle, where are your wife and daughter, and what's wrong with you?" Adele asked.
"They are not sick, they were just kidnapped by robbers."
"Huh?" Adele was stunned.
"Those bandits came to our village again this morning and asked for money. We had no money to pay them. As a result, many people's family members were kidnapped by them."
"Is it morning? How many people are there?"
"About twenty or so, all armed with weapons, and some wearing leather armor." The villagers chattered.
Adele bit her lip lightly, knowing that if these bandits were not eliminated, even if they left food for the villagers, they would be taken away later.
The leader of the Black Dog Guard was a lizardman named Gunn, and he was also one of the rare lizardmen who was willing to learn. It took him a year to learn the common language of the mainland.
So he naturally became the general of this army.
After hearing this, Gunn said, "I'll lead some people to chase them. Since they often come to this village to rob, they must not be too far away."
Adele also knew that if this group of bandits were not eliminated, the life of these villagers would not be better, so she nodded and said, "Then you should bring more people."
Gunn smiled and said, "No, it's just a group of bandits. I'll just lead a small team there. The rest should stay to protect you."
After saying that, without waiting for Adele to say anything else, he took the people away.
He set off at noon and came back at dusk. Many of the people in the group had blood stains on their bodies, which made Adele and others worried.
Fortunately, Gunn said that these blood stains were left by the robbers, and no one was injured.
The lizard people living in the Great Swamp of Gaigu have been bandits for thousands of years. They are far beyond the ability of those guys who have become monks halfway. Gunn can deal with these people very easily.
Their group of twelve people not only defeated nearly thirty enemies on the opposite side, but also rescued ten prisoners, most of whom had just been kidnapped this morning.
The women and their families hugged each other and cried with joy.
But before Gunn could take a breath, another group of people gathered around him, hoping that Adele could help them find their relatives.
It was also at this time that Adele realized that there was not just a group of robbers nearby.
She looked at Gunn, who shrugged, "Rescuing people is more important. Let me lead people to sweep the area first and kill all the robbers and bandits we can find, so that we can stay safer here.
"Please Adele Hughes, please help us write down the extended working hours, and we will adjust the rest when we go back."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Adele said.
Gunn added, "You can also look to see if there are any young men in this village. We also found some weapons and armor from the bandits this afternoon. If these villagers can be armed, even if we leave, they will I will have the strength to protect myself in the future.”(End of Chapter)
