She Is Not a Witch Chapter 115: The peace after the war
In the main building of the Hellis house, Mei Lu, who had passed out in the cabinet, was finally found by the guards. At this time, the artillery outside the city had stopped, and the two parties in the city had gradually stopped their hands and returned to their own headquarters.
In the distance of the sky, a piece of white gradually appeared, and then gradually turned into a light blue. Occasionally, birds flew in 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 dwarfs, scattered wood chips, debris, blood, broken gun barrels, broken sword hilts, and some braziers still have a little charcoal fire, burning quietly, but there is no surrounding People came to take care of it.
A small number of logistics personnel began to drag the dead bodies, and the two sides silently took away their own personnel without saying a word.
After the fierce battle at night, once the nerves relax, a kind of intense exhaustion begins to surge. Walking in the open space in the chamber of commerce, you can see many people leaning directly on the debris, or in the corner of the wall, falling asleep, snoring one after another.
The large iron pots were set up one by one, with firewood burning underneath. Someone kept fanning the wind to make the smoke roll to the other side, then pour in clean water, cook some food, meat and vegetables, and another The porridge is cooked in a pot, and the attendant constantly stirs it to prevent the bottom of the pot from sticking and becoming mushy. The scent of food filled the square with firewood smoke, which made people especially appetite after a night of exercise.
After the outside movement gradually disappeared, some people slowly appeared on the street, but today's Hoplander's morning was much quieter than it used to be. Even if scattered acquaintances met on the road, they just nodded and did not dare to speak loudly for fear of disturbing the rare peace.
The streets are full of burnt ashes and scattered debris. Many shops are not open. Only a few hotels and restaurants are open, revealing a little smoke. It is hard to imagine that it was still a place before night yesterday. The lively festival city is full of prosperity, and tourists and residents are looking forward to the arrival of the beautiful festival.
But after only one night, everything changed. On the cold streets, some people never came back, walked through some houses, and even heard some slight sobs.
Hellis’s house, Mei Lu squatted before a white cloth, and tears slowly ran across her cheeks, dripping onto the ground, moistening a little dust. There was a body lying under the white cloth, whose face had been hidden, and he couldn't really see it.
Meru naturally knew that lying here was the maid who had taken care of her since she was a child. If this mother-like existence had not sacrificed her life to protect her, she would have been lying under this white cloth.
Jerder stood behind Meilu, 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, so he could only sigh. Stand quietly.
On the square where the two of them were, when they looked up, it was white, covered with cold bodies. The Hollis family lost a lot of lives in this battle, and others The same is true at home.
Lorraine Hill walked on the square in the Chamber of Commerce, and many people paid tribute to her. Thanks to the medicine she prepared before, although many people in the Carrites Chamber of Commerce were seriously injured, as long as they did not die on the spot , Most of them are rescued back, plus they are defensive operations, it is convenient for the wounded to be placed nearby.
But even so, she still feels a little guilty in her heart. If she can get promoted earlier, she can stop it in time without causing such a big casualty.
But who can predict this kind of thing, the Tisifones made a temporary volition, 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 officials of Calites, the captain and the captain of the guard, have gathered here.
After listening to the casualty report, Lorrain Hill felt a little heavy. In her previous life, she lived in a stable and stable society, and the country where she lived can also be said to be the safest country in the world. The loss of any one or two lives will arouse social attention, but in this world it seems to be just an ordinary Number.
Some of the stewards below are still admiring the alchemy potions given by the Patriarch. There are only this number of casualties, which seems to be something very remarkable.
But she couldn't be happy. Perhaps the values of the two worlds are different. The world of Ivar is as old as it used to be. Most people are still struggling with food and clothing. Starvation, illness, injury, natural disasters, and the invasion of monsters will cause death. Even if angelic churches were established in various parts of the mainland thousands of years ago, they are only worth the average per capita. Life expectancy has increased to between 40-50 years old. This is the data obtained after excluding children who died before their age.
Newborn babies are even more miserable. On average, one of three children will die. It’s no wonder that the Helis family is flourishing. There are only two direct descendants in the main family, and there is only one in the Anemi family. It is said that Feng Nai also had an older brother in his early years, but he disappeared when he was 5 years old. Is the reason why he spoils the wind so much.
"Master Lacey, a messenger came to report that it was Tissifone who invited you and the other masters of the Chamber of Commerce to have peace talks."
An attendant came in to report. After listening, everyone in the hall quietly waited for Lacey's instructions.
"I know, but the peace talks will be scheduled for three days. Our Calites will now arrange the wounded and deal with other affairs."
"Yes, eldest lady." The two stewards followed the attendants out to talk to the messenger outside.
After the messenger went out, Lorrain Hill seemed to think of something and asked.
"How is the cargo on the fleet~IndoMTL.com~have it been unloaded?"
The captains and fleet leaders below were a little surprised, why they suddenly cared about this, but they still replied.
"There is not enough manpower at the moment, not yet."
"Well, let everyone have a good rest, and then send someone to unload the goods in the afternoon"
Lorraine Hill blinked his blue eye pupils and looked at the progress bar on the system that was gradually full. He also made a decision in his heart, and a faint brilliance began to flow in the pupils.
As dusk approached, on the hills outside Hopland, a horse-drawn convoy of hundreds of people slowly approached. Some of the horse-drawn carriages were loaded with various goods, and some of the horse-drawn carriages were beautifully decorated, and you could see the faintly inside. Silhouette.
Looking at the city full of ruins and wreckage on the hillside, the rider in front was very surprised. After quickly reporting to the principal in the carriage, several riders began to ride their horses to approach the city, wanting to go in first to find out the situation, and The rest of the staff stopped quietly.
The setting sun goes down, and the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the carriage, which bears the logo of olives and shells.
