Chapter 845: Someone is up to something.

*Shock* The raws I used to use were for some reason quite difficult to access No idea why either . But I hope I didnt have you guys waiting too long!

Robb turned to the soldier next to him and asked, Arent there too many people? Have you counted how many refugees are outside? I feel like this is more than what an oasis can accommodate.

The soldier whispered, We sent people out of the city to inquire. These are indeed not only refugees from the Oasis city but also many commoners from other oases who managed to escape.

At this point, a peculiar expression appeared on his face. When the Black Dragon attacked the Oasis city, the entire palace was instantly razed to the ground. The Pharaoh didnt even have time to escape and met his demise. With the loss of the Pharaoh, the desert kingdom immediately plunged into severe internal turmoil. Several lords from different oases proclaimed themselves as the next Pharaoh and sent troops to neighboring oases. In just a few days, the desert kingdom turned into chaos.

Robb:

Well, isnt this the same thing that happened to the Kingdom of Gran over twenty years ago? Mondras successful usurpation became a terrible example for the noble families of the desert kingdom, and they began to imitate it.

Moreover, when it comes to seizing power, the faster, the better. After the incumbent king dies, the one who raises an army quickly and employs cunning strategies has the greatest chance of success. Thats why, shortly after the Black Dragon attacked the capital oasis, things turned out like this.

Robb felt annoyed and furrowed his brow, asking, How long have these people been here?

Five days, replied the soldier.

Do they have food?

Some people brought dry rations, but most of them have very little to eat, whispered a soldier. The attack on the capital oasis by the Black Dragon was so sudden that they were completely unprepared. Many people simply fled from their homes without even having time to gather their valuables. They ran across the desert, and many collapsed as soon as they reached the city outskirts. They rely on their companions to take care of them. As for those who came from other oases, they were slightly better prepared because they escaped due to internal conflicts. At least they had time to gather their valuables.

Robb:

Suofa next to him had a sad expression, but she didnt immediately cling to Robbs leg and cry for help to save the people like an ordinary woman would. Such foolish actions were not fitting for an assassin. She silently suppressed her impulsive thoughts, holding back the tears from flowing out of her eyes and letting them fall back into her stomach.

Motra ran to the edge of the city wall and shouted loudly, Does anyone recognize me? I am Motra Kali of the Kali family. Does anyone know what the Kali family is doing now? (TL: Its been too long, I dont remember if it was the Kali family or the Kari family)

He used the battle cry skill of the soldiers, and his voice was incredibly loud. Even the refugees outside, who were far away, could hear it clearly. One daring person ran to the bottom of the city wall and looked up, saying, Lord Motra, so youre here. I escaped from the Kali Oasis. The Kali family didnt rise up in rebellion, but the rebels forced them to recognize their leader as the new Pharaoh. The Kali family refused, and as a result, they are being attacked by the rebels. They are currently defending their oasis.

Motra exclaimed, Oh, f***! I need to go back and help.

As he finished speaking, he was about to jump down from the city wall, but Robb pulled him back, saying, Dont panic, lets wait a moment. Ill ask for my teachers advice.

When Motra heard the phrase my teacher, he hesitated for a moment and immediately stood still.

Robb furrowed his brow. Though he was kind-hearted and wanted to open the city gates to let the refugees in, the thought flashed in his mind but he quickly extinguished it himself. It was clear that things couldnt be handled that way.

Turning to Suofa, he said, Give Elsie a call and tell him to go to my chapel and transport food. Bring all the potatoes stored in the warehouse and give these refugees two hearty meals.

Suofa took out her phone and called Elsie.

Robb pondered for a moment, then shifted his consciousness back to the lazy godfather, and dialed the phone number of the queen.

Soon, the Queen appeared in the crystal ball. It was daytime, and the Queen was busy with state affairs. She seemed a bit surprised by the sudden call from Robb. Huh? Why are you calling at this time?

Robb went straight to the point and said, Your intelligence is always faster than mine. You already know about the refugees from the desert kingdom outside Crystal Canyon, right?

Hmm! The Queen pointed to a stack of papers on her desk. Its all written here, all about the refugees.

Robb said, Well, since you already know, lets skip the pleasantries. What are your plans for these refugees?

The Queen calmly replied, I have no intention of letting them in.

This answer didnt surprise Robb. In fact, although Robb often acted like a good-hearted person, he couldnt be bothered to suggest letting so many refugees into the Kingdom of Gran all at once. He knew that it would bring more harm than good to the kingdom, so the Queen would never agree to it.

The queen, who usually disdained wasting words, surprisingly explained to Robb, There are too many refugees. Our Kingdom of Gran cannot accept such a large number of people from the desert kingdom all at once. Moreover, these people have a different culture and way of life. If a large number of them enter our kingdom, it will cause many problems, as you should understand. I have already arranged for internal affairs officials to gather as many resources as possible to provide humanitarian aid to the refugees, but I cannot go any further.

Robb nodded, By doing so, you have already shown great statesmanship.

The queen hummed, Although I am poor, I still know how to be a decent person.

At this point, she paused and then said dissatisfiedly, Did you call me just to see if I am a cold-hearted woman?

Hahaha, of course not, Robb replied, I just wanted to give you a special reminder that the northern border may become restless again because someone is causing trouble.

Hmm? Are you implying that the Kingdom of Norma will take the opportunity to annex the desert kingdom and then attack our kingdom? The queen became alert. Her political acumen was very high. However, as soon as this idea arose, she extinguished it and shook her head, saying, You may be overthinking it. I have many spies operating within the Kingdom of Norma, and so far, we havent detected any unusual activities. The desert kingdom holds no value for annexation; even the Kingdom of Norma cant be bothered to conquer such a broken kingdom.

No! Robb shook his head, Im not saying that the Kingdom of Norma will cause trouble. Im saying

He chuckled and pointed at himself, saying, Im the one causing trouble!

The queen:

Robb continued, Im about to transform into an evil aggressor, invading the desert kingdom and ruthlessly suppressing anyone who opposes me. I will hang them from ceiling fans because I am officially a citizen of the Kingdom of Gran, and my army plans to board a train and embark on a desert expedition from Crystal Canyon. Therefore, your Kingdom of Gran will inevitably be drawn into this war.
