Chapter 170 Opinions
The high priest and Reinhardt left, but Fari on the other side had no plans to leave for the time being.

The matter at hand is not over yet.

The priest had already woken up under the treatment of the resistance fighters and knew his new job. Lisabel's non-commissioned officers were transforming the entire resistance team into small teams that would not arouse suspicion. These teams would pass through the blockade of the Duchy soldiers as missionaries.

Those pursuers will not be a problem at least in the short term. Even if the Principality discovers the problem, they must first confirm what the Cult of the Sun God means, which gives Lisabel a lot of time.

This time is basically enough for these scattered teams to reach any place in the principality.

Lisabel was discussing with her men where the next gathering point would be.

"We need the cover of the forest."

A sergeant drew a large area on the map, where there were patches of forests. The resistance fighters could conceal their presence in these forests, and even if they were discovered, they could quickly move between different forests.

"But this place is too far from the densely populated core area of ​​the principality."

Even in the Windwhispering Principality, where there are many deists, the forest is still not a place suitable for large populations to live.

In the area designated by the non-commissioned officers, there were only a few small villages, and those villages had a small population, and they could only barely survive by relying on the special products of the forest.

These villages could not provide more soldiers for the resistance fighters. Although using this place as a base was safe, it also blocked the resistance fighters' possibility of future development.

“Then we can choose here too.”

The sergeants re-delineated a range on the map. It was a huge forest, not far from the magical forest of the elves. Even without the network of underground roots, it would be more convenient to receive the elves' assistance.

If they continue to provide assistance.

The specialties produced by that huge forest are much more than those of the smaller forests, enough to support the existence of a town and its affiliated villages in the surrounding area. But the only problem is that that territory now belongs to a new noble in the principality. These new nobles have obtained their titles through military merit and have not been influenced by the decadent atmosphere of those nobles. They are still working hard to govern the territory in their hands.

The new nobles at least treated their subjects as human beings and tried to improve their living standards. The ordinary people under the new nobles could at least survive. It was difficult for the resistance to convince them to join them.

After all, as long as people can survive, they will not have much desire to take up arms and fight against the Principality's troops for an illusory slogan like "Recover the Kingdom of Wind Whispering".

But it seemed that the soldiers didn't care much about it. Even Lisabel seemed optimistic about the prospects of this base.

"Can we really recruit new soldiers in a place like this?"

Only one very young sergeant had some doubts about this.

"After all, I heard that the nobles there are quite nice. Since the new noble took office, no one has starved to death there."

Even these resisters had heard rumors about the new nobles.

"Those are just rumors. You don't even know what those nobles are like."

The older resistance fighters on the side did not take these so-called crew members seriously.

They have seen too many nobles. Some nobles care more about their reputation and will spread rumors like this, but in fact, the behavior of those nobles is not fundamentally different from that of other nobles.

They may occasionally grant themselves some small favors, but in the end, their exploitation will be even more severe in the future, and those so-called small favors will eventually return to the warehouses of those nobles. "There are no good nobles in this world. Even if there are one or two good people who become nobles, they will soon be assimilated under the siege of those stinking nobles."

Hearing the words of the resistance fighters around him, Lisabel's face turned a little ugly. His parents, brother, and other family members were once members of these nobles, even the top class of these nobles.

They were also one of these oppressors, although their governance level was slightly higher. Compared with those capitulation nobles, the number of people who starved to death every winter in the areas under their jurisdiction would not exceed 5% of the territory's population.

This was enough for Lisabel to organize today's resistance forces under the slogan of "Recovering the Whispering Wind Kingdom".

As far as the nobles knew about Lisabel, it was impossible for people not to starve to death in the territory during the winter.

"Those rumors can't be true."

She thinks so.

"Then it's settled here."

They are about to decide on the next gathering place.

"I suggest you not to set up your base there."

Fari's voice sounded behind them.

Although no one knows what the ultimate goal of the big hand behind the scenes is, judging from the fact that it guided Lysabel to become a servant of Farri, it is obvious that it will not be happy to see Lysabel and her resistance fighters destroyed.

Farry still doesn't know what the big hand behind the scenes will do if he sits back and does nothing.

Judging from its previous actions, it will not show up on its own initiative, and it is even unlikely to take any retaliatory action against France. However, it will probably still influence the situation on the mainland behind the scenes through various indirect means to achieve its goals.

Now, Fari can at least keep Lisabel and her group under his nose and understand their movements. If any changes occur, he will at least be the first to know.

Just because of this, he couldn't let Lisabel and his resistance fighters be easily destroyed.

In Fary's view, the actions of those resisters to establish their base in the territories of the new nobles were tantamount to self-destruction.

"Those new nobles from the Kingdom of Valandi are probably not what you imagine."

In fact, Farui didn't know much about the new nobles, but he only needed to know one thing: these new nobles were personally selected and enthroned by Lania.

Fary still has some understanding of Lannia. He will not grant these territories to those traditional corrupt nobles or wastes.

If Lysabel established their base there, they might have a difficult time.

It would probably be difficult for them to get enough support from ordinary people there.

What followed would be continuous encirclement and blockade. Although they could probably hold out for a long time under the cover of the huge forest, they would eventually be completely destroyed under the continuous consumption.
