After the smuggled cargo ship arrived at Nolan last night, many people besides Dad received the news. For some reason, those benefactors from other places fought fiercely for a bottle of triangular beef spinal cord grinding that they didn't cherish very much, but no one expected that the cargo used for ballast on the smuggling ship was actually a cabin of Military steam bomb.
It is always unknown who ignited the cabin, and then caused the amazing explosion last night. Jenkins arrived on the scene on the unicorn just in time to see Dad dragging the two badly injured hapless men out of the cabin through the flames.
The clothes on Dad's body were blown to pieces, and his hair was a little scorched. He looked like he had escaped from the center of the explosion, but Dad was fine.
The worried Jenkins returned to his original form, pretending to be attracted by the explosion and came to the dock area. He wanted to heal his father, but there was no wound on his body at all.
In the end, he could only follow his father's instructions to rescue those foreign gifters who were about to be blown to death, and then wait for the team from the Church of Ocean and Exploration to arrive and hand over those unlucky ghosts to them.
This is the truth of last night, and the truth has not been covered up. Today's morning newspaper reported this incident in a large space, and directly named the "arms smuggling cargo ship" that caused the explosion.
As for the source of this batch of arms, all newspapers unanimously pushed it to the Cheslan Kingdom. It is almost 100% that the two countries will go to war. Even if the disaster is pushed to them, no one will feel wrong or feel guilty.
"Are your windows okay?"
Britney asked.
"It's all right, my house was just renovated when we went on a winter trip, and the glass is the best quality. Oh, I'm so sleepy, sorry."
He yawned, and the chocolate followed suit, as if infected. The cat is not sleepy at all, on the contrary, it looks very excited, as if it can't wait to go out and play in the countryside.
"I just heard that the wharf suffered disaster. I read from the newspaper that the wharf where the ship was docked was completely blown up, and nearby houses and trestles were also damaged to varying degrees. But I didn't see the number of casualties. May I The sages bless them..."
The man drew the holy emblem on his chest. He felt that this action made him wake up a lot, so he changed from leaning to sitting upright.
Glancing out of the window, he hasn't left the city yet. Because it was early Saturday morning, there were no pedestrians on the road, and even most of the shops on the street were still closed.
"Have you heard that there is also a plague in the mines in the east of Nolan."
This is a new topic brought up by Hathaway.
Nolan City is located on the west coast of the mainland, and the northeast of the city is close to the Seebeck Mountains that lie across the west of the mainland and block the north-south traffic. The hilly area adjacent to the mountainous area is a rich mining area for the entire Norland and even the entire continent. Not only coal, iron ore, and copper ore are produced here, but most of the minerals that humans can use can be found here.
Norland's ability to become a well-known industrial city in the mainland has a lot to do with its rich mineral resources in addition to convenient water and land transportation and a suitable climate.
"I've heard that too."
Britney echoed, "I heard that the miners who returned home on vacation were infected with the plague in the city, and then brought it back to the mining area. The living conditions there are very poor, so they infected hundreds of people at once. The city's epidemic prevention department found that At that time, the epidemic was already very serious."
"Later, the Church of the Sages resolved this matter. The priests of the church conducted blessing activities in the mining area for a week. Later, most of the people who were infected with the plague were cured."
In fact, three drops of the [universal potion] diluted a thousand times were added to the water tanks of the miners. Although the corpse plague was powerful, it was no match for the panacea that appeared because of Jenkins.
"Does the Church of the Sages really have a way to control the plague? I heard from my family that as long as the patients are still alive, the Church of the Sages can cure all those infected by the plague."
"Yes, that's true, but this approach cannot be generalized."
Jenkins nodded, but actually five of Nolan's churches had similar methods. But apart from allowing Jenkins to use his ability to heal, other means need to consume precious ritual items or numbered items.
Jenkins never worried about his friends being infected with the plague, anyway, as long as he didn't die, he could cure it. Even if he is dead, he still has the resurrection feather to use. In this respect, Jenkins has no problem calling himself a god on earth.
In fact, he is really a god on earth.
The carriage carrying the girls and Jenkins went all the way out of the city, and the girls' maids and guards were already waiting outside the city.
Their departure time was just right, so when they arrived at the assembly point outside the city, they were ten minutes earlier than originally scheduled. This is the intersection leading to Nolan's countryside. Going to the left is the town, and going to the right is the goal of everyone's outing, Helen's Grassland.
That pasture belonged to a nobleman from Beldylan, and the organizer of the outing, Miss Wanda, was his relative, so she was allowed to use it.
As for the young people who took part in this outing, there are a total of more than 20 people. If including guards and servants, there will be more than 100 people in the honest team. A large number of carriages were parked at the intersection. When Jenkins looked out the window, he saw the familiar Miss Lindsay and Miss Lawrence.
The former was the organizer of the psychic game last year. After being punished by the church, he was confined at home by his parents and was unable to meet his friends until recently; the latter was a friend he met on vacation in the snowy mountains and a survivor of the villa murder case. one.
Jenkins also knows more or less other people. He has also participated in some salons, parties and dances in the past six months. Although Nolan City is big, there are countless young people of similar age and status. If you know someone, you may know others through this person.
After the carriage stopped, the girls and Jenkins got out of the carriage to greet everyone. No one was surprised that two women and one man came in the same carriage.
The duel on the night of the opera is well known, and so is Britney's relationship with the young writer. As for the relationship between Hathaway and Britney, this is a tacit secret.
Everyone was very enthusiastic about the appearance of Jenkins. In fact, some were even a little too enthusiastic. The first words of most people's mouths were to congratulate Jenkins on his upcoming knighthood, and a few invited Jenkins to ride in the same carriage with them.
