Mechanical Doctor
Chapter 271
...
Half a month later, Erde New Town.
"Kind sir, please give us something to eat."
"Kind lady, please..."
27-year-old Karen led her two children to beg from the passers-by.
If 27 years old was in Manolin's previous life, she could still call herself a fairy, but in this world, Karen looked like a middle-aged woman in her forties or fifties because of the heavy agricultural labor she had experienced for many years.
Seeing that the passers-by had no intention of giving alms, she dragged her body, which was a little weak due to injury and hunger, back to the wall and sat with her fellow villagers.
"How is it?"
"Alas..."
Faced with the inquiries of the fellow villagers, Karen showed them the empty pottery bowl in her hand.
"Alas..."
The sighs seemed to be contagious, and one sigh after another spread throughout the area.
"We have to live."
Karen murmured to herself, as if she was comforting others and herself.
...
Originally, Karen was a subject of a knight's territory not far from the new city of Erde.
Although the knight master was very greedy and the subjects under his rule had to pay very heavy taxes, fortunately, Karen and her husband could still barely survive after hard work.
Although the knight master was greedy, he still had some "foresight". At least he knew that he could not kill the "sheep" in his hand and eat meat at once, so if there was a natural disaster or man-made disaster, so Karen's family could not pay the taxes, the knight master could still be more "tolerant".
If nothing unexpected happened, Karen's family would live a peaceful life in busy labor like their ancestors.
But an accident happened-a mid-level demon and five low-level demons broke into the knight's territory where Karen was.
The master of the Knight Territory, the Knight Master, barely managed to resist the middle-level demon with the weapons and armor in his hands, but he had no way to deal with the five low-level demons.
The low-level demons rushed into the village and killed the "army" temporarily formed by the Knight Master - male residents holding a series of weapons such as old-fashioned rifles, spears, and dung forks.
If it were a world without extraordinary abilities, these teams composed of farmers who had not received any military training would have a slim chance of stabbing the high-ranking knights to death with dung forks.
But in this world, the gap between extraordinary people and ordinary people is too big. Without advanced weapons and strict training, ordinary people have no chance to kill extraordinary people.
When the five low-level demons rushed into the crowd, the result was actually doomed.
Screams, curses, and pleas for mercy resounded throughout the Knight Territory.
Fortunately, a team of soldiers passed by here.
This team of soldiers carried long guns and short guns and quickly repelled the attacks of the demons and saved some people.
Unfortunately, the ruler and protector of this territory, the knight master, had been killed by the devil before the army arrived.
After the army left, the people of the knight territory woke up from the panic. In addition to the corpses of their relatives, they had to think about their future lives.
The death of the knight master meant that this place was no longer protected by the extraordinary. Although the remaining people did not have much knowledge, they still knew that staying here was a dead end under such circumstances.
In fact, human settlements without the protection of extraordinary people could not last long. This is common sense in this world.
Otherwise, the landless farmers in this world would not have desperately moved to the city, because if they did not enter the city, these landless farmers without protection would really die.
Finally, after the prestigious people in the three villages of the knight territory discussed, they decided that everyone would go to the city of Erde New City, which is closest to the Knight Ridge.
The reason they went to Eerde New City was not only to seek refuge, but also to find the two sons of the knight who were in college, hoping that they could lead them back home.
In this way, the villagers of the three villages packed up all their valuable belongings, left their villages, left the unripe wheat fields, and left their homes to Eerde New City.
But the journey was not peaceful, although the bandits along the way were also affected by the invasion of demons and had no time to plunder.
But the extraordinary creatures and demons that occasionally passed by on the road also caused them great trouble.
Fortunately, because there were more than one village in distress, a steady stream of refugees joined the fleeing team.Five.
With so many people gathered, plus the occasional passing army vehicles, although they injured many people on the road, most of them successfully arrived at the new city of Erde.
But after entering the new city of Erde, they faced the problem of survival.
The prestigious people in their three villages finally stood up. They decided that all the healthy adults in the villagers would go to find jobs and work hard to make money, while the rest would beg and look for the two sons of the knight master.
Although it was very difficult to find a job and beg, fortunately, the relief station opened by the government of the Elliot Federation gave them some support, barely allowing them to survive.
…
"I'll try again."
After a rest, Karen stood up again as if she had recovered some spirit. She raised her arm - a piece of rag was wrapped around her arm, and the rag was stained with black blood stains, as if to say, you see, I will definitely arouse the pity of those passing by, and let them be kind.
"Forget it. We haven't begged for anything these two days. You are injured. You should keep your strength so that you can hold on longer."
An old man from Karen's village weakly stopped him.
With more and more refugees entering the city, it is very difficult for them to get some food by begging.
"Alas... Why is it so difficult to survive?"
Due to the increasing number of refugees in the past two days, even the porridge in the relief station has become thinner.
At this time, a box truck painted with a red scalpel and a hammer intersecting emblem slowly drove over.
Before everyone could be curious about the purpose of this car.
A young boy in his teens and several fierce guards got off the car. The boy climbed up the truck's cargo box along the ladder swiftly.
He took off the loudspeaker hanging around his waist and started shouting.
"Everyone, please be quiet. I am Mr. Manolin's secretary."
"I am here to announce something. Mr. Manolin is going to hold a free medical consultation."
"Anyone who is injured or sick can receive free treatment from Mr. Manolin and get a portion of food after the treatment!"
"Do you see the two huge monsters in the suburbs? Just go there and you can get free treatment and food!"
The boy pointed to the two huge monsters that can be seen even in the city.
After saying these words, the boy immediately returned to the cab in a hurry and prepared to go to the next location.
"Fodelo, drink some water and take a rest. Your throat is hoarse."
The security team member driving the vehicle handed Fordlo a kettle.
"Thank you."
After thanking him, Fordlo gulped down most of the water in the kettle.
After wiping his mouth, he said:
"Let's continue to look for the next gathering place for refugees."
