I led the Goblin Culture to victory.

Chapter 253 Everyone's Here

A new lord?

Walter suddenly realized.

No wonder the soldiers looked embarrassed when they were asked this question before setting off.

They bore no signs of battle, their clothes were spotless, and their weapons...

Oh, they weren't carrying any weapons.

This must have been done by the new lord.

In short, the soldiers probably didn't even participate in the battle before the territory changed hands.

This is indeed hard to explain.

Upholding justice?

Miser stared directly into Zwan's eyes.

Ziwan's current attire is, to put it mildly, questionable.

But those eyes remained bright and resolute.

After careful consideration, he decided to believe that Zwan had not lied to him.

At least Zwan believed that the new lord could uphold justice for them.

Misser nodded slightly.

He might actually be worth a try.

No matter what, snatching someone from their home is still outrageous.

At the same time, he had some doubts in his mind.

The mistake left by Baron Talis?

Old Hanl, along with the people around him, stared intently at Zwan.

He had lived for so many years and had never heard such a term before.

Several years ago, when the current Baron Talis took office, he visited various manors to deal with unresolved conflicts.

In addition to resolving conflicts among the people, some compensation was also provided to those who had been harmed by the previous Baron Talis's subordinates.

This is normal.

He had heard his parents say that the second Baron Talis had done the same thing when he inherited the title.

This allows the people to experience the grace and majesty of the nobility.

They therefore believed that the lord was trustworthy.

But all of that damage was caused by the managers.

As for the mistakes left behind by the Baron?

The Baron is definitely right!

How could the lord be wrong!

These words are an offense against the lord's authority.

Old Han and Zwan looked at each other.

Zivan did not speak further.

Everyone knows that he is Lord Talis's personal bodyguard.

Although I don't know why he turned out this way, his mind should be normal.

At least old Han believed he wouldn't make that mistake.

Old Han found it odd that he used the term "new lord" instead of "new Baron Talis."

Isn't the new lord a child of the Talis family?

he does not know.

Old Han felt as if his throat was blocked.

"suck--"

A sob suddenly broke out among the silent villagers, and everyone turned to look.

Ziwang also looked over.

He saw old Han.

"suck--"

What's wrong with me?

Old Han felt the gazes of those around him and tried to speak to divert attention.

"I am Zwan. Who is the new lord?"

Old Han's eyes were always squinting from years of hard work.

This is true for all elderly farmers.

This meant that Zwan couldn't see old Hanl's eyes in the shadows of the forest, and he couldn't discern anything from his dark, wrinkled face.

I could only sense that his voice sounded choked up.

Even the gasps sounded suppressed.

"Chief, this..."

The nearby soldiers walked up to Zwan, unsure of what to do.

These people were initially just walking slowly, but now they have come to a complete stop.

The forest paths were not wide to begin with.

The people behind them also stopped.

"Shouldn't Baron Taliss's eldest son be out there broadening his horizons?"

"That doesn't make sense, does it?"

"In the past, it was the lord who came to our manor..."

The people behind them were blocked and couldn't help but start discussing it.

Ziwan knew he couldn't continue like this.

He thought for a moment, then spoke.

"The new lord is not a member of the Talis family; he is a true nobleman! He has come to judge the sins of the Talis family!"

Now that things had come to this, he had no chance to follow Baron Taliss anymore.

For Manaka's sake, he must follow the new lords to the death!

As he spoke, he looked at old Han.

"Old Han, tell the new lord what happened to you. He will uphold justice for you."

The soldiers around him were stunned.

Is it okay to say that?

Those around him followed his gaze to old Han.

Old Han remained where he was.

"suck--"

Old Hanl seemed to have been struck by miasma, and took another deep breath.

"So—who is the new lord?"

His voice trembled slightly, causing those around him to frown.

Who is the new lord?

Ziwan didn't know how to answer either.

Should we tell them they're goblins?

Or is it a bear-orc?

The people probably wouldn't believe that.

But the Holy Maiden seems to not want others to know her identity.

The adult who led the goblins and bear-men, dressed like a carpenter, never revealed his identity.

Ziwang could only speak vaguely.

"I cannot tell you, and you cannot know. But the new lord is connected to the Papacy."

With the Holy Maiden present, no one can find fault with this statement.

But the unknown makes people even more uneasy.

The people looked at each other, increasingly puzzled.

They heard Zwan speak again.

"Perhaps you can call him 'Master'. Don't worry, the new lord is the most benevolent adult I have ever met."

'Sass?'

Walter and Bank exchanged a glance, finding the pronunciation somewhat awkward.

Continuing to talk about this would take too much time.

Ziwan glanced at his subjects and offered a reminder.

"Hurry up and go, don't keep the lord waiting too long."

He ignored everyone else and turned to continue westward.

The people instinctively stepped forward to follow.

"Yes."

"OK."

Everyone continued onward.

Misser turned to look at old Han.

"You should try too; at least there's still hope."

"suck--"

Old Han took another deep breath and nodded slightly.

"Um."

Misser felt that old Han, who had been silent like a corpse, had come back to life.

Walter glanced back and continued on his way.

The sun rises.

Around noon, the residents of Donghe Manor once again emerged from the woods.

Their eyes immediately fell on the town of Talis in the northwest.

Most of the residents had never seen Talis Town in their lives, and found the blackness of the town quite striking.

Several craftsmen looked at the town and the roads, and finally matched the location with their memories.

That black building, as black as charcoal, is in Talis Town!

Their bodies were still moving forward with the group, but their eyes were already frozen in shock.

Why did the town turn this color?

Those standing around...

As the procession continued forward, the people could see the soldiers standing around the town.

A soldier pointed north.

"Assemble in the open space between the fortress and the town, north of the town."

"good!"

Ziwan gave a casual reply and led his people northward.

Water and the other citizens focused their attention on the walls of Talis Town.

It does indeed look like charcoal.

Was the entire town burned down?

The main house and the watchtower behind the wall seem to be unharmed...

"Wow! Be quiet!"

"Okay! Okay!"

"Don't crowd together!"

Walter had only taken a few steps north when he heard strange squeaking and awkward voices.

Fortunately, there were quite a few voices he could understand, telling people not to crowd together.

Soon, the charcoal-black walls of Talis Town appeared at a corner, and the scene on the open ground to the north came into view.

Amidst the surging crowd and the walking bushes, he spotted at a glance the wooden platform facing south outside the fortress gate.

Li Mosi, who was standing by the platform, also saw them.

He patted his clap.

"The people have all arrived. Let the tribesmen call all the soldiers."
