She Is Not a Witch

Chapter 115: Post-war peace

Views:

In the main building of Helis's house, Mei Lu, who had fainted in the cabinet, was finally found by the guards. At this time, the artillery fire outside the city had stopped, and the two sides in the city gradually stopped and returned to their own headquarters.

In the distance of the sky, a piece of white gradually appeared, and then gradually turned into light blue. Occasionally, birds flew from the cliffs and forests outside the city, and the chirping of birds could be heard from time to time.

The streets of Hopelander are full of desolation, scattered sawdust, debris, blood, broken gun barrels, broken sword hilts, and some charcoal fires still remain in some braziers, burning quietly, but there is no one around to look after them. .

A small number of logistics personnel began to drag the dead body, and both sides silently took their own personnel away without saying a word.

After the fierce battle at night, as soon as the nerves loosened, a strong exhaustion began to rise. Walking in the open space in the chamber of commerce, you can see many people leaning directly on the sundries, or in the corner of the wall, falling asleep, and purring one after another.

One by one large iron pots were set up, with firewood burning underneath. Someone kept fanning the wind on one side, causing the smoke to roll to the other side, and then poured in water to cook some food, including meat and vegetables, while the other pot beside it was While the wheat porridge was being boiled, there were attendants stirring constantly to prevent the bottom of the pot from sticking and becoming mushy. The smell of food fills the square with the smoke of the firewood, which makes people particularly appetizing after a night of exercise.

After the movement outside gradually disappeared, some figures slowly appeared on the street, but today's morning in Hopelander was extraordinarily quieter than usual. Even if there are scattered acquaintances on the road, they just nod each other and dare not speak loudly, lest they disturb the rare peace.

The streets are full of scorched ashes and scattered debris. Many shops are not open. Only a few hotels and restaurants are open, revealing a little firework. It is hard to imagine that it was still a lively festival before nightfall last night. The city is prosperous, and tourists and residents are looking forward to the arrival of a beautiful festival.

But after just one night, everything changed. On the cold streets, some people never came back. They walked past some houses and even heard some slight sobbing.

At the Helis family, Mei Lu squatted in front of the white cloth, tears slowly swept across her cheeks, dripped onto the ground, and wet a little dust. There was a body lying under the white cloth, and his face had been covered, so he couldn't see it clearly.

Mei Lu naturally knew that the one lying here was the head maid who had taken care of her since childhood. If it wasn't for this mother-like being who sacrificed her life to protect her, she would probably be lying under this white cloth herself.

Gerd was standing behind Mei Lu, looking at his cousin. He wanted to comfort him, but he felt that his identity was not suitable, and he didn't know what to say. He could only sigh and stand quietly. .

On the square where the two of them were, looking up, it was white, covered by a cold body. The Helis family lost a lot of lives in this battle, and so did the other families. .

Loren Hill walked on the square in the chamber of commerce, and many people paid tribute to her and said hello. Thanks to the potions she prepared before, although many people were seriously injured in the Karites Chamber of Commerce, as long as they did not die on the spot, most of them were still injured. After being rescued, coupled with the fact that they were fighting defensively, it was convenient for the wounded to be placed nearby.

But even so, she still felt a little guilty in her heart. If only she could be promoted earlier, she could stop it in time without causing such heavy casualties.

But who could have predicted such a thing, the Tisifone family got up on a whim and suddenly attacked. Because they failed to save the lives of these people, and took the crime of killing on themselves, this is not a kind of self-moral kidnapping.

As she walked into the chamber of the chamber of commerce, the current senior managers, captains and captains of the guards of Karites were gathered here.

After listening to the casualty report, Roland Hill felt a little heavy. In her previous life, she lived in a stable and stable society, and the country where she lives can be said to be the safest country in the world. The disappearance of any one or two lives will attract the attention of the society, but in this world, she seems to be just an ordinary person. numbers.

Some of the stewards below are still admiring the alchemy potion given by the Patriarch. Only this number of casualties seems to be something very remarkable.

But she couldn't be happy, maybe the values of the two worlds were different. The world of Ivar is like the ancient times. Most people are still struggling with food and clothing. Starvation, illness, injury, natural disasters, and monster attacks will all lead to death. Even if the churches of the angel sequence were established thousands of years ago in various parts of the continent, they are only worthy of the average per capita. The life expectancy is raised to between 40 and 50 years old, and this is the data obtained after excluding children who died before the age.

Newborns are even worse. On average, one out of three children dies. It's no wonder that the Helis family is prosperous. There are only two in this generation of the main family's direct line, and there is only one in the Anemiyi family. It is said that Feng Nai also had a brother in his early years, but unfortunately he died when he was 5 years old. This is why Nuo The reason why Iss doted on Feng Nao so much.

"Lord Lacey, a messenger came to report that it was Tisifone who invited you and other big chamber of commerce masters to have peace talks."

An attendant came in to report, and after everyone in the hall listened, they quietly waited for Lacey's instructions.

"I understand, but the peace talks will be scheduled in three days, and we, Carites, will now settle the wounded and deal with other affairs."

"Yes, Miss." The two stewards followed the attendants out to chat with the messengers outside.

After the messenger went out, Roland Hill seemed to remember something and asked.

"How is the cargo on the fleet now, has it been unloaded?"

The following captains and fleet leaders were a little surprised, why did they suddenly care about this, but they still answered.

"There are not enough people at the moment, not yet."

"Well, let everyone have a good rest first, and then send someone to unload the goods in the afternoon."

Roland Hill blinked his blue pupils, watching the progress bar on the system gradually filling up, he also made a decision in his heart, and a faint brilliance began to flow in his pupils.

As dusk approached, on the hills outside Hopelander, a carriage convoy of several hundred people slowly approached. Some carriages were loaded with various goods, and some carriages were beautifully decorated, and vague figures could be seen inside.

Looking at the city full of ruins and wreckage on the hillside, the riders in front were very surprised, and after quickly reporting to the person in charge in the carriage, several riders began to approach the city on horseback, wanting to go first to inquire about the situation, while the rest of the staff Quietly stopped in place.

The sun was setting, and the afterglow of the setting sun was reflected on the carriage with the logo of olives and shells.
