Abyss Knight

Chapter 117



"Well, everybody, since the knight kukas neither robbed the money and goods nor killed the people, he should be acquitted." an officer shouted from the high platform, "does anyone have any opinion?"

"Those who have opinions raise their hands and talk. OK, if no one raises their hands, it\'s over." the officer looked around the officers present and made the final decision.

No one said anything. They actually allowed kukas to speak after the argument was over. If kukas admitted any of them, the result would be different. If he did not admit it, even if there was sufficient evidence, the officers who had already made a deal would not take out the evidence and accuse kukas.

The officers in the military court left one after another, and kukas wanted to leave, but was stopped by a middle-aged officer before leaving. "I heard you handed in all the minerals to exchange for military merit?"

"Yes." looking at the officer in front of him, kukas nodded and answered.

"When you walk in the fortress in the future, you must be careful. Some people will never let you go. Although some people in the military headquarters want to protect you, they won\'t pay too much attention. Everything depends on you." the officer said softly.

"Well!" kukas nodded, not grateful for the officer\'s reminder. He believes that this is what the other party should do. After all, his behavior has brought great benefits to these senior officers.

After leaving the military court, kukas returned to the mine under the protection of some heavily armored soldiers. In the following days, he did not step out of the mine at all, and if his soldiers wanted to leave, they must leave with a few ten people to prevent someone from sneaking attack and plotting against them. Of course, he didn\'t find the missing soldiers, but with the passage of time, everyone gradually forgot them, just as they died.

As time went by, this day was the time for the military to collect ore, and at this time, the military came here to collect more than twice as many ore trucks as before. And this time, there were a large number of prisoners among those who followed the members of the military headquarters.

"More than 1000 prisoners are all political prisoners." the black robed Officer explained helplessly to kukas: "what you did before has suffered retribution. They are very difficult to deal with. Be careful."

Kukas frowned tightly at the prisoners who didn\'t look like prisoners at all. These prisoners are both men and women, old and young. According to the information provided by black robed officers, these people include not only officials who have held important positions in the imperial capital, but also women of nobles such as earls, members of some large families and even people of great power in the Empire.

The prisoners were well dressed, and even when they came to this place, they still looked high. Of course, there are only a few such people. Although most prisoners still seem to be living in dignity, they still look very flat in front of kukas and have no momentum to bully others.

"These prisoners are actually transferred from other places. As for the reason, I\'m just a small soldier, so I don\'t know. However, I heard from my boss that each of them political prisoners may turn over and leave here again, so it\'s really a thankless thing to detain them." the black robed officer rubbed his hands and said helplessly: "I wanted to win you thousands of strong prisoners, but the person in charge of this matter refused my request."

"I know how to deal with it. Prisoners who look very difficult for others are nothing to me. By the way, did the officer say whether these miners have special care?" Kukas touched his bald head, tilted his head and stared at the more than a thousand political prisoners. In his opinion, the more than a thousand political prisoners were not as real as a hundred strong slaves. Of course, this was his idea now.

"No, but I still suggest you take good care of them. After they return, they will trouble you." the black robed officer said reluctantly. When he saw these political prisoners, he knew that kukas would have a difficult life in the future.

After the two talked again, the ore was loaded, and the black robed officer led his men away, while kukas asked the soldiers to bring food to the miners as usual.

The bread mixed with meat pieces and a small cup of medicine bone soup developed by doctors were the food of the miners. Some political prisoners were angry before and after these food were distributed to more than 1000 political prisoners.

"Let\'s eat these things? Is there any other food?" a prisoner in noble costume waved the food in his hand and shouted. He hoped kukas could change the food for them.

"A thousand pounds of iron ore is worth a little military merit. A little military merit can be exchanged for a rich food. If you want more abundant food, you must provide a thousand pounds of ore. if you don\'t have ore, you can pay money. Well, a hundred gold coins is a little military merit. What do you think? Of course, there are better food here, even according to your requirements It\'s just that you have to pay more money or ore to get the customized food alone. "Kukas sat down in his chair and grinned with the standing political prisoners.

"What is the food for a little military service? Can we have a look in advance?" a woman asked softly.

"Of course." kukas laughed. He motioned the soldiers to bring some food to him, and got a table to put the food on it.

One plate of ordinary meat, one cup of the most common Baijiu, a small pot of soup, two pound pound of meat pie.

"A little military merit or a hundred gold coins, you can only get these food." while talking, kukas grabbed a meat pie, rolled some meat pieces and began to wolf down. "This kind of food is actually quite good, eh! But there is no restaurant here, so you have to squat on the ground to eat like them. If you add a table and a chair, you also need a hundred gold coins or a little military merit. Of course, if someone is willing to sleep with me or my soldiers, I can reduce some expenses for you."

Kukas\'s words made most political prisoners angry. They abused kukas with various words, but kukas ignored them. After receiving kukas\'s order, the soldiers on one side, except some soldiers guarding the passage to the outside world, all the others took out their own food and began to eat. Of course, the most food here is meat cake and herbal bone soup, because the former is the easiest to store and is the food of many miners, while the latter is cooked by several weak miners after doctors provided prescriptions.
