Chapter 813: One form of heroism
After understanding what was said, the queen immediately squinted her eyes and said, "Don't just say nice things to deceive me. While other people may need several years to have a large harvest of cocoa trees, you can grow a large number of cocoa trees in just one day."
Robb said calmly, "Farming is tiring, I won't do it."
"I want to eat chocolate!" the queen exclaimed loudly.
Robb shook his head and replied, "If you want to eat, do I have to go and plant them? I can't be easily persuaded."
The queen insisted, "I'll pay you!"
Robb shook his head again, saying, "Am I short of money?"
The queen stuttered, "I... I... I... I'll let you kiss me!"
"I've already kissed you once, it's not exciting anymore," Robb replied.
The queen fell silent.
The queen's frustration began to build up...
At that moment, an official walked over from the side and stood next to the queen, whispering, "Your Majesty, there is urgent information."
"Oh?" The queen's frustration instantly dissipated as she glanced at Robb in the crystal ball. Without ending the call, she turned to the official and asked, "What is it?"
The official whispered, "We have received intelligence from a scout. Something interesting has happened in an old colony of the Kingdom of Norma in the New Continent."
Curious, the queen listened attentively as the official took out a stack of documents and began reading.
It turned out that about 80 miles south of the port that the queen had seized, there was a colonial settlement of the Kingdom of Norma. This settlement had been established for nearly five years and was considered a well-established colony. The initial group of Norma people who came to this colony had been living there for five years.
Once people have lived in a place for a long time, they develop an attachment to that place.
The Norma people were no exception. They gradually began to develop a shared sense of destiny with the Maya Continent and even felt that they would be residents of the Maya Continent in the future, with no intention of returning to the Kingdom of Norma.
Among them, there was one Norma individual in particular who had an intense fondness for the Maya Continent. Furthermore, his knightly spirit led him to sympathize with the Maya people and he couldn't turn a blind eye to the cruel oppression and persecution of the Maya people by other Norma individuals.
He actually started helping the persecuted Maya people and even went against his fellow Norma people for this cause.
As a result, chaos broke out in the colony, and it turned into a mess.
This information was obtained by the scouts of the Kingdom of Gran and eventually reached the ears of the queen.
The queen couldn't help but laugh and cry upon hearing this intelligence.
Robb was also a little surprised and said, "So quickly?"
He originally thought that it would take a generation or even two for such events to occur in the colony. However, he didn't expect that in this world of swords and magic, the progress of everything seemed to be faster than in his own world.
Upon further thought, it became clear!
In this world of swords and magic, there were many strange forms of magic that facilitated transportation, communication, and other things. Therefore, the development of this world would naturally be faster than his own world. In his world, during the Age of Discovery, there were no crystal balls for communication across the straits, no transmission gates, no self-made televisions, livestreaming systems, and other such things.
And these things often accelerated the spread of ideas and consciousness, facilitated cultural dissemination, and naturally sped up the progress of the world. Just like how the world changed rapidly after the advent of the internet, in this world, after the appearance of the things created by Robb, the development of ideas and consciousness also progressed rapidly.
Although the technology of the Kingdom of Norma was somewhat behind that of the Kingdom of Gran, it was much more advanced than that of Mondra. They had intellectuals who desperately absorbed advanced technology and progressive ideas from the Westwind City. And these technologies and ideas, through advanced communication systems, infected everyone.
So... the progress of the world was faster!
The appearance of a "Saint Mother" in the colony, who sympathized with the weak and stood up against her own people, quickly made Robb delighted. "Hahaha, interesting, interesting! It seems that the Black Hero Zorro will also appear soon."
"What is Black Hero Zorro?" the queen asked curiously.
"Well, simply put, it's a kind of..." Robb thought for a while but couldn't find a good adjective, so he shrugged and said, "It's a form of heroism. Queen, just wait and see. There will be a very exciting drama that is about to start playing out."
In the bushes, a large group of Eagle Warriors, along with a large team of white warriors, and a bunch of Maya refugees, were running frantically towards the north.
These Eagle Warriors did not belong to the Gada Tribe or the Polar Tribe, nor did they belong to any tribe that Robb had already encountered. Each of them had many wounds on their bodies, indicating that they had just experienced a fierce battle.
Surprisingly, the group of white warriors had the emblem of the Kingdom of Norma on them.
Leading them was a knight of the Kingdom of Norma! His armor bore many sword marks, indicating that he had also experienced a great battle. The group of white warriors following him were his subordinates, and they also had numerous injuries.
The group of Maya refugees trailing behind them looked even more miserable. They all had pale faces and emaciated bodies, showing signs of malnutrition and having suffered cruel torture.
It turned out that this group of people had escaped from the Norma people's colony to the south.
The kind-hearted knight couldn't bear to see the Maya people being oppressed, so he made contact with a guerrilla group from a hidden Maya tribe in the jungle. They collaborated and staged a rebellion, successfully rescuing a large group of enslaved Maya people from the colony. However, the rebellion ultimately failed as a large number of Kingdom of Norma soldiers from other colonies surrounded them and defeated them.
They had no choice but to escape the colony with the group of Maya refugees and were currently on the run.
A warrior asked the knight, "Commander, what should we do now? Where should we go?"
"To the north!" the knight whispered. "There are two mithril mines of the Kingdom of Gran in the north. We will seek refuge with them."
"Seek refuge with the Gran people? Goodness!" one warrior exclaimed. "They will kill us."
"If it were ordinary Gran people, they certainly wouldn't be kind to us," the knight said. "But according to my investigation, one of the mines was built by people from Westwind City."
"Westwind City?" the warriors were surprised.
"That's right, the Westwind City you're thinking of," the knight said. "If we go there, we still have a way out. Godfather of Westwind City is inclusive and will accept us."
The warriors nodded silently. At present, going there seemed to be their only option.
At that moment, an Eagle Warrior ran up from behind and shouted, "Run! The pursuers are getting closer!"
Everyone was startled and quickly increased their pace, desperately running forward.
They crossed mountains, traversed jungles, and hurried towards the mithril mine of Westwind City.
Behind them, a large group of pursuers from the Kingdom of Norma chased after them with an aggressive momentum.
