Standing at the top of the wizard's tower, overlooking the entire Coldwind City, a sense of power came to life.
A city is a settlement settlement with administrative functions including residential areas, commercial areas, and industrial areas. Owning a city is equivalent to having strong human and material resources.
The lord who owns the city can truly be called the superior, and at least tens of thousands of people obey his orders. This is a platform for flexing their muscles. With the help of the ruling institutions, it is possible to accomplish unimaginable causes.
"It's no wonder that nobles like the power in their hands, and the feeling of mastering the destiny of themselves and others is really unpleasant. Standing on a high place, it seems that they have transcended the shackles of the world, and even changed the world."
On the top of the tower tens of meters high, Zhou Qingfeng felt the slight humiliation brought by power, and also felt the distance from the bottom layer has become estranged. "It's no wonder that some people will become'why not eat meat."
With an abnormally bitter smile, he asked Sophia uncontrollably: "Do I look like a fool now? The kind of dizzying kind."
The population of Coldwind City is more than ten times that of the "rich and strong collar", and the area is hundreds of times more. This step was beyond the plan, and Zhou Qingfeng felt beyond his control.
The ruling institutions cannot adapt to this drastic expansion and are prone to problems. Both internal corruption and external threats are disturbing.
"Master, you need a process of adaptation. Our management ability is always stronger than those old-style nobles. They can rule safely for hundreds of years, and we will get worse without reason."
Shumei has lived for a thousand years, has experienced more, and is always calmer, "You don't need to restrain yourself too much. There are no outsiders here, so just relax."
The soul slave pushed over the recliner, Irene delivered the fruit plate, and the little fairies were singing and dancing.
Zhou Qingfeng leaned on the recliner and slightly closed his eyes and muttered to himself: "It's not that simple, but I can finally transform the city according to my wishes."
In the Coldwind City after dawn, one post with three steps and one post with five steps. At the intersections of all streets stood the city management of the inspection office, the infantry regiments stationed at the city gates, the cavalry units searched house-to-house, and the whole city was under martial law.
The backbone of the Allard family died in the Wintery Hall, and the big family disappeared in an instant. The remnants of nobles such as Lehman and Minos escaped a lot, but most of the family's servants and assets remained.
In addition, the wizarding group almost escaped, leaving only the newly promoted Necromancer Mondino and some helpless low-level wizards and apprentices.
The eight major factions are no longer functioning properly.
Xili came forward to take charge of all the chores in the city, first arrested the remaining nobles and screened them one by one. People who were angry were hanged directly, and the rest were under residential surveillance and were not allowed to walk around.
No matter how the nobles fought in the past, the lives of ordinary people have not changed. But now the sky changed overnight, and hundreds of gallows were erected on the square outside the Wizard's Tower in one go, extending all the way to the City Lord's Mansion.
Every few minutes, someone yelled, cried and begged, or struggled and was hanged. The "Harmonious Chamber of Commerce" has been operating in the city for half a year, and it has long been clear who and who has what black background.
Many aristocratic slave foxes faked their powers, and they were more fierce than their masters on weekdays, and their consequences were extremely serious.
It's like Kent, the old butler of Minos who was hit to death by'Shi Ying', who opposes good and abuses civilians, but he is good at it.
Kent died, but many Kent-like noble accomplices could not escape. God knows what these guys think, and they ran out one by one after dawn in an attempt to take refuge in the new owner and continue to be in power.
Zhou Qingfeng's ruling system cannot tolerate the old-style lackeys and executioners, and it happens to take the lives of these people to appease people. When they were sent to the gallows with their hands tied behind their backs, they still couldn't understand why Your Excellency Hugo didn't accept themselves
When the corpse on the gallows was blown like a swing by the wind, the residents of the city were dumbfounded at first to clap their hands and cheer later. People don't understand what happened, but the new lord is obviously different from the nobles of the past.
The noble area was the focus of the inventory, and both Johnson and Powell hid in the illusion hut and dared not go out. Dudu was released by them to investigate, and the owl flew to a gallows.
Under the gallows, an aristocratic attendant's clothes were broken and his body was covered with weed marks. He was tied up with his hands, his face pale and he looked at the same kind who was being hanged one by one, trembling like a chaff.
Dudu cautiously leaned over, landed on this person's shoulder, and asked, "Hey, man, what happened? Are you going to die?"
The noble attendant turned his head, his eyes were staring and speechless, his expression was clearly full of doubts, and he was about to have a nervous breakdown.
Owl's eyes were big and sunken, and he waited for a long time without getting an answer. It continued to ask: "Man, say a few words.
I actually want to make friends before you die, don’t you leave some last words? If you don't talk about it, there will be no chance. "
It's okay if you don't ask. After asking, the noble attendant who was about to be executed stood still, with a pale face, and pissed urine in his trouser legs.
Dudu strange yelled'It's disgusting', flapped its wings and landed on the shoulders of another person waiting to die, and asked the same question, "Hey, my friend, how about a few words? How did you get caught?"
The goal this time is a thin middle-aged man with an unhealthy sallow face. He wore a linen jacket, and his face was violently retaliated. Not only did he have blood stains, but he was also swollen.
"What do you want to say?" The thin middle-aged man is a low-level servant, the kind who usually stays at home. He vomited a lot of blood in one mouth, "Masters either died or fled, leaving us behind.
The poor ghosts gained power and rushed in and arrested people. They hate us, how we hanged them in the past, now they are going to hang us. "
Many residents were surrounded by the gallows, and many seven or eight-year-old children dared to run over and spit on the executed prisoners with their mouths open.
Upon seeing this, the residents yelled out loudly, and there were even more scolding people who were doing the same. The stones on the ground were picked up and thrown until the soldiers from the inspection office in charge of the execution came over and shouted a few times before they would retreat.
Most of those who were hanged were men, and occasionally women. Before the execution, the soldiers would take off their coats and throw them to the lively residents.
Every time it is lost, it will cause scramble and riots, and the residents who watch the lively will tear their faces to grab a piece of clothing, and they will be able to fight themselves.
But the soldiers of the patrol office are still happy, first to humiliate the executed prisoners, and secondly to deliberately show the residents their new powers.
Every scene in the city, including everything under the gallows, can be clearly seen on the real sand table of the Witch’s Tower. At this moment when the new and the old alternate, the chaos is particularly noticeable.
Zhou Qingfeng took a deep breath and pointed to the execution scene that was noisier than the vegetable market, "Look, this is a farce. No one is noble, this is my leader."
Sophia floated aside and said calmly: "I think this is good. You can teach them and spur them. They must obey.
In fact, you are very effective in transforming the lower-level people. This is true of Harmony Village, and so is the rich and powerful collar. I believe Coldwind City is no exception. "
Zhou Qingfeng nodded and shook his head first, smiling bitterly.
At the execution scene, the noble attendant who was peeing on his pants was dragged onto the gallows. When the noose was wrapped around his neck, he shouted in a tearing voice: "Poor ghosts, don't be too happy, the masters will come back.
One day, your house will be burnt down, your children will be thrown into the fire, and your wife will be snatched away.
Either you are driven into the black hole mine to death, or you are thrown into the water and soaked into rotten flesh. Wait, you won’t be happy for long. "
The cheering residents under the gallows became silent in an instant, as if frightened.
The execution soldier pulled the handle, and the trap under the torture frame opened. The noble attendant froze in the air, twitching vigorously, and his neck was stretched.
The residents cheered again and threw the picked stones at the hanged corpse.
A few rocks flew around, smashing the owl to dodge. It cooed: "The poor ghosts have become more courageous, which has never been seen in the past."
