Chapter 241 Liberation

Even though it was only a square with more than 2,000 people gathered, the momentum was not much worse than the large gatherings of tens of thousands of people in later generations. Roland secretly felt that the ability of echoing was really useful. { ＜[Eight? One? Shuowang ]>?]?>

The purpose of choosing these few people is mainly to set an example for the people—none of them is a nobleman, and Iron Ax is a deserter in the southern border; Apprentices climbed up step by step; and Nana is a witch.

There are aliens, there are civilians, and there are witches. It is simply impeccable political correctness to replace it with later generations.

Roland hoped that through such a ceremony, he could instill his ideas into all the citizens - Border Town only cares about merit, not about background.

The first person to receive the honor was Iron Axe. Roland personally handed him the gold medal with the emblem of the Greycastle Tower, the gear and the ear ring, and the soldiers of the First Army in the audience raised their hands and applauded. Many people whistled.

"You all should know his name, the commander of the First Army Musketeers, Iron Axe!" Roland turned to face everyone, "Before the arrival of the Demon Moon, he was just an ordinary hunter in the town. Border Town has so far Iron Ax did not miss any of the explosive battles, and just a month ago, he led the soldiers of the First Army to the capital to rescue the fugitives from the east who were besieged by the evil plague! More than a thousand leaders were brought back by him!"

Most of the people in the square were aborigines and soldiers of the First Army, and the serfs and refugees only accounted for a few hundred people. However, under the mobilization of Echo, the atmosphere was not at all cold. Roland paused, and the applause and voices of the fugitives immediately sounded at the scene, and the intensity was no less than the applause of the First Army.

Iron Ax also seemed very excited, probably never thought that as a member of the Mojin clan, he could also be favored by the prince. He first performed the military salute stipulated by Roland, and then knelt down on one knee to give the knight salute of the kingdom. If Roland hadn't supported him, he might have to use the five-body throw salute of the sand people next.

"Get up, as a soldier, all you need is a military salute." Roland smiled.

"Thank you...Your Highness," his voice trembled slightly, as if trying to suppress his emotions.

The prince patted Iron Ax on the shoulder reassuringly, handed over a hundred golden dragons to him, and then asked Kaimo Stree to stand in front of the stage.

"This one, you may be seeing this for the first time, he is from the central part of the kingdom, the head alchemist of the Alchemy Workshop in Chishui City, Mr. Kemo Struer!"

As soon as these words came out, the leaders took a deep breath.

"Senior alchemist? Isn't that a sage who will be respected and treated in front of the king?"

"Just like the royal astrologer?"

"No, the status of an alchemist is higher than that of an astrologer. After all, no one can be sure whether the latter's prophecy will come true, but at least the things made by an alchemist are real."

"And he is from the Alchemy Workshop of Chishui City. I heard that only the Royal Alchemy Association can be compared!"

"..."

In the Four Kingdoms, alchemists and astrologers have a certain status. For common people, alchemists who are known as sages are more worthy of preaching than nobles and lords. Roland was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. He stretched out his hand and pressed down, and then said: "Although Mr. Struer did not personally participate in the previous battles, the several improvements of the musket, from single to company, are all separated from his chemical laboratory. It doesn't matter, this is also an important guarantee for the victory of the First Army. Without these alchemy-chemical products, Border Town can't really win peace and tranquility." The prince paused for a moment, "By the way, the chemistry laboratory is currently recruiting Apprentice alchemists, those who have received the town's primary education and passed the assessment can all be recruited. Those who pass can not only get generous rewards, but also have the opportunity to become an outstanding alchemist like Mr. Struer! "

There was a commotion in the crowd again, and Kaimo himself looked impatient. He took the medal and said unhappily, "That's why you called me here? What a waste of time, I might as well do a few more What about the experiment?"

"This is a great opportunity for publicity. Don't you often complain about the lack of manpower?" Roland shrugged. "When the laboratory doubles in size, I plan to write "Intermediate Chemistry" and give it to you to teach."

"Medium...Chemistry?" Kaimo bowed immediately, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

Although focus is very important, it is also imperative to cultivate successors. The larger the mass base, the easier it is for the project to achieve results, and the same is true for scientific research. Roland didn't intend to put all his eggs in one basket, and of course he wouldn't let go of such a perfect commercial timing.

The last one was Nana Hua.

Looking at the little girl who walked towards him with a nervous expression, Roland couldn't help feeling deeply moved.

Compared with Xie Yue's hiding and hiding, now, he finally plans to push the witch in front of everyone - after nearly half a year of preparation, the town has ushered in the best situation, and choosing Nana as the representative is also after careful consideration. The choice made: In the First Army, she was called an angel by the soldiers, and her reputation was higher than that of Iron Axe, second only to herself. Many town residents have also received her treatment. Whether it is a mine accident or a mechanical injury, everyone has developed the habit of going to the little angel for treatment when they are injured.

The serfs no longer resisted witches as before after repeatedly watching the performance of the play "The Witch Story".

The fugitives also survived because of Lily's ability. Even if some people hated witches in their hearts, they would not speak harshly to each other after being rescued, not to mention that they were not weak individuals who were chased by the church and hid in hiding—at least in the In Border Town, these women with extraordinary abilities are under the protection of the lord.

And the most important point is: even if there are church believers who want to expose it, it will be difficult to cause any disturbance in the western region. The town was completely under his own rule. The church in Longsong Fortress was razed to the ground by Timfek, and the church lost its stronghold to monitor the western border. Unless they went further to Zhuolongling and Chishui City, they couldn't even find a priest who was accused.

"This is—" Before Roland had time to introduce, thunderous cheers erupted in the square.

"Miss Nana! Miss Nana is here!"

"Miss Angel, thank you for curing my husband!"

"Little girl, you must eat at my house when you have time. I have specially raised two chickens, whether it is steamed egg custard or stewed chicken soup!"

"Nanava looked at me!"

"No, you're looking at me!"

Nana couldn't help covering her mouth, her eyes became moist. Roland believed that other witches felt the same as her at this moment—they finally got rid of the evil status imposed on them by the church, and they could walk in the sun like ordinary people in the future. Roland smiled and patted her on the head, "Don't be afraid, just simply respond to everyone's enthusiasm. Don't forget, you are now the representative of the Witch Union."

"Hmm..." She sniffed, wiped away the tears that were about to burst into her eyes, bowed down and saluted, "Thank you... thank you!" (To be continued.)
