Chapter 115: The Tranquility After the War

In the main building of the Helis family, Meilu, who had fainted in the cabinet, was finally found by the guards, and at this time, the artillery fire outside the city had stopped, and the two sides in the city gradually stopped and retreated to their own headquarters.

In the distance, the sky gradually revealed a patch of white, then a light blue, and 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 Hopeland were littered with sawdust, debris, bloodstains, broken gun shafts, broken sword hilts, and a few braziers that still burned quietly, but there was no one around to watch over them.

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

After the fierce fighting of the night, as soon as the nerves relaxed, a strong exhaustion began to set up. 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, snoring one after another.

Large iron pots were set up, with firewood burning underneath, and someone was fanning the wind on one side to let the smoke roll to the other side, and then pouring in clean water, turning some food, including meat and vegetables, and cooking wheat porridge in another pot next to it, and attendants constantly stirring it to prevent the bottom of the pot from sticking and becoming paste. The smell of food fills the square with the smoke of firewood, making people particularly appetizing after a night of exercise.

It was only after the commotion outside had faded away that some figures slowly appeared on the streets, but tonight's morning in Hopland was quieter than usual. Even if there were scattered acquaintances on the road, they only nodded to each other, not daring to speak loudly, for fear of disturbing this rare peace.

The streets are littered with charred ash and littered debris, many shops are not open, and only a few hotels and restaurants are open, revealing a little smoke and fireworks, and it's hard to imagine that before yesterday night's work was a bustling festival city, with tourists and residents alike looking forward to the beautiful festival.

But after just one night, everything changed, and some people never came back in the cold streets, walking past some houses, and even some slight sobs could be heard.

At Helis's house, Meilu squatted in front of a white cloth, tears slowly rolling down her cheeks and dripping to the ground, wetting a little dust. Beneath the white cloth lay a figure, whose face had been obscured, and it was impossible to see it clearly.

Mei Lu naturally knew that the head maid who had taken care of her since she was a child was lying here, and if it weren't for this mother-like existence who sacrificed her life to protect her, I am afraid that she herself would be lying under this layer of white cloth.

And Geerde 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 and stand quietly.

And in the square where the two of them were, looking up, it was white, and the bottom was covered with a cold body, and the Helis family had lost many lives in this battle, and so did the other families.

Lorain Hill walked in the square in the Chamber of Commerce, many people saluted her, thanks to the medicine she prepared before, although there were many people seriously injured in the Karitas Chamber of Commerce, as long as they did not die on the spot, most of them were rescued, plus they were defensive operations, and 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 would have been able to stop it in time without such a big casualty.

But who could have predicted this kind of thing, the Tisiphone family suddenly became troubled. Failure to save the lives of these people, and taking the blame for the killing on oneself is not a kind of self-moral kidnapping.

As she walked into the chamber of commerce, it was already filled with the current high-ranking stewards, captains, and captains of the guard of Calites.

After listening to the casualty report, Lorain Hill's heart was a little heavy. In her previous life, she lived in a stable and stable society, and the country where she is located can also be said to be the most secure country in the world.

Some of the stewards below are still admiring the alchemy potion given by the head of the family, and only this number of casualties seems to be something very remarkable.

But she couldn't be happy, maybe the values of the two worlds are different. The world of Ivar is like in ancient times, most people are still struggling with food and clothing, hunger, disease, injury, natural disasters, and demonic beast invasion will lead to death, even if the church of the angelic sequence was established in various parts of the continent thousands of years ago, it is only possible to increase the average life expectancy to 40-50 years old, which is still the data obtained by excluding children who die before the age of age.

Newborns are even more miserable, with an average of one out of three children dying. It's no wonder that the Helis family is flourishing, there are only two descendants of the main family, and there is only one of the Anemiyi family, it is said that Feng Nai also had an older brother in his early years, but unfortunately he disappeared when he was 5 years old, which is why Noyce dotes on Feng Nai so much.

"Lord Lacey, a messenger from outside has come to report that Tisiphone is inviting you and the other heads of the Great Chamber of Commerce to make peace."

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

"I see, but the peace talks are scheduled for three days, and we in Karitas now have to settle the wounded and take care of other matters."

"Yes, Miss." The two stewards followed the attendants out and talked with the messengers outside.

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

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

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

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

"Well, let's have a good rest, and then send someone to unload the cargo in the afternoon."

Loren Hill blinked his blue pupils, looked at the progress bar on the system that was gradually full, and made a decision in his heart, and a faint brilliance began to flow in his pupils.

As dusk approached, on the hill outside Hopeland, a convoy of several hundred men slowly approached, some of which were laden with various goods, and some of which were so beautifully decorated that you could see faint figures inside.

Looking at the ruins and wreckage of the city on the hillside, the riders in front were very surprised, and after a quick report to the person in charge of the carriage, several riders began to ride their horses close to the city, wanting to go in first to find out the situation, while the rest of the personnel quietly stopped in place.

As the sun sets, the setting sun shines on the carriage with the signs of olives and shells.

Thank you all for your support, and work hard tonight to >.<
