Chapter 69 The Rebels (Page 2/2)
Even Triss, Dandelion, Shani, and Priscilla, these sorceresses, bards, and scholars and students will all join the camp against Nilfgaard.
Although the nobles of the northern countries were originally a pile of shit and hopeless, the invaders were indeed unforgivable and even more hateful.
Frank's heart was burning with anger, and he entered the city of Sintras with the envoys.
However, when they came to the moat, they saw a very crazy scene.
On the periphery of the moat, hundreds of logs were inserted into the soil and stood tall.
On these logs, hundreds of naked Sintras were hung there, men and women, old and young.
Some people had already been dried into mummies, and from time to time crows and vultures would fly over them and eat the flesh and blood on the corpses.
Some people did not die, groaning in pain while enduring the sun's scorching heat. Needless to say, what awaited them was either being burned to death by the sun or being starved to death because of lack of food.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were looking at those who were hung up, the Nilfgaardian officer who led the way chuckled and said in an arrogant and mocking tone:
"These are the mobs wandering around Cintra, still trying to resist us."
"They are all a mob, a group of lowly farmers, and they call themselves the Cintra Resistance Army. They dare to help the rebels to resist us Nilfgaard."
"They are simply courting death. These people are not even worthy of being slaves."
"Our general has ordered that all members of the Cintra Resistance Army must be hung on stakes and starved to death."
"Let the crows peck at their bodies."
After saying this, the Nilfgaardian officer also swept the people in the delegation with an ambiguous look, probably wanting to establish his authority and thinking that this would scare the sorceress in the delegation.
However, he did not know that the atrocities he saw along the way strengthened the envoys' resistance to Nilfgaard.
When they returned to Temeria and Redania and reported everything they saw to the two kings and major forces, all the northerners would understand that the Nilfgaard Empire would be the enemy of the north.
Facing such a cruel enemy, no one should have forgiveness, but should firmly resist to the end.
………………
At night, the envoys successfully moved into a noble mansion in the city of Cintra.
Because it was late, the talks were scheduled for tomorrow.
After a secret and detailed discussion, several sorceresses had fallen asleep early, while Frank, Roche and other soldiers took on the task of night duty and stayed in the mansion.
Looking at the dark and moonless sky, Frank sat on the roof and sighed deeply.
The tragic scenes he saw during the day are still vivid in his mind. Perhaps because Ciri is the princess of Cintra, he unconsciously felt a little sympathy for the people of Cintra.
Seeing the people here being treated like this, Frank couldn't help but feel a flame rising in his heart.
Although he was just a demon hunter and couldn't do much, Frank decided to help this poor country within his ability. After
all, the original owner of his body was actually a Cintra person.
