Chapter 142: The Flood?

"Given that Mr. Eisen has already been traumatized, for humanitarian reasons, there is no need to add to his mental burden." Sigma announced this, graciously sparing the Eisen scholar from a flying disaster, but then he said to the driver who was driving the train outside the carriage, "Don't throw away the things you have prepared, maybe you will need them later." ”

Although he worked in vain, the coachman did not show the slightest dissatisfaction, and nodded naturally, as for whether he was scolding his mother in his heart, I don't know.

"You......" Ji Li shook her head, pushed open the wooden window of the carriage, a cool wind blew in her face, with a trace of moisture, she was stunned, looking at the faint dark clouds on the horizon, "Is it going to rain?" ”

"Well, it's coming. At this time of year, there would usually be heavy rains that would last for a long time, and the Imperial Engineers and Mercenary Guild would go to the Lake District to reinforce the embankment, and we would sometimes help. The coachman drove the carriage and replied casually, "There are floods of greater or lesser proportions at this time of year, and it is impossible to prevent them, but it is better to make the levees a little higher." ”

Sigma grew up in the Frontier Lands, where the average precipitation was not very low, and in some places there was a terrible lack of water, and later in Atlas, where a dark canopy hung over the city all year round, and all weather changes were under the control of the legends. Only a certain unnamed Sargeras Majesty occasionally gets interested, maybe a rainstorm will fall, and at this time look out from the hazy window, if you are lucky. You will see a majestic figure holding an oil-paper umbrella, wandering alone in a long, lonely alley. Sensing your gaze, he might turn around and smile proudly......

So, even in his previous life, he was a northerner, so Sigma never experienced what the real rainy season was, and he had no idea about floods and heavy rains. However, he suddenly remembered that when Atlas was selling airplane cups to the priests, he casually cited a case where it was better to control water and block the water, and that random example seemed to resonate with the paladins, so he asked, "Floods?" Don't the mercenary unions and the people of the Holy See care? ”

"Of course it will, but far water can't quench your thirst." The coachman sighed. "The terrain of Chenguang Town is not bad, and it will basically not be affected by disasters, but the villages below may not be affected. Because they don't know where the levee will burst, the official and non-governmental forces can only form a mobile patrol team, and where the levee will burst, they will go to contain and provide disaster relief, but how can it be so easy to fight natural disasters? The levee will not collapse in just one place, if it blooms on all sides. You can only save the strictest one, and that's how casualties usually come......"

He sighed softly, as if remembering some bad past, gently flicked the leather whip, and said melancholy: "No way, I heard that the Holy Sword Province is in good weather every year." There have been no floods in a hundred years, and that's because not only is Cloud City, the headquarters of the Holy See, located here, but even the embankments along the Munao Mother River, which runs through the Holy Sword Province, are repaired and strengthened by earth magicians and alchemists every year, but unfortunately this is a small place, and they can't afford to hire a mage......"

The coachman, who was almost over thirty years old, complained. Only then did he realize what he had just done, and a layer of cold sweat oozed from his back. Haha laughed dryly: "It's really rude, let my uncle hear my boring complaints." In fact, the people here are already very content, even if there is a disaster, there are paladins and mercenaries who carry it in front, the government and the Holy See will put free food and supplies, so that they will not starve to death and freeze to death, and the food at home will also be stored in the Chamber of Commerce early, so you don't have to worry about being flooded, even if you are unlucky enough to encounter a flood, so that the house at home is washed away, there are also people to help you rebuild ......"

He repeated again: "So everyone is very content, and in this case they can still lose their lives, it can only be said that it is fate, and no one else can be blamed...... Who allowed himself to be born here? ”

Sigma and Gilly glanced at each other, and the paladin seemed to be infected by the coachman's desolate and inexplicable optimism, and began to sympathize with the people here, and shot a pleading gaze at the powerful Uncle Sigma.

The necromancer couldn't stand Ji Li's gaze, and waved his hand helplessly: "Okay, okay, who let us encounter this kind of thing." I will write a letter to say a few soft words, and ask her to allocate more materials to satisfy your vanity and so-called kindness. There are too many people in need of help in the world, and our strength is limited to help everyone, but we can still do what we can to help...... Cut, you can imagine that she is going to taunt me again. ”

He thought for a moment and added, "As for the realm of the dead, don't think about it. I asked my future wife for help and asked for something, just an internal family affair and a few bites of soft rice, but the academy is not so simple. First of all, I don't have the authority to send necromancers to serve my personal requirements, secondly, I don't want them to come here to risk for a group of people I don't know, and thirdly, they can't come if they want to, a large number of necromancers have entered, and their purpose is to fight floods and provide disaster relief, do you believe it or not? It's almost ...... to say that they came to take advantage of the fire to loot, collect corpses, and spread the plague."

"I know, I know." Ji Li expressed understanding and nodded, "Then we ...... Staying here for a while? ”

"If I said I'd go out when I finished the mission, would you say yes?" Sigma rolled her eyes, "It's just a drag bottle, always making some decisions without authorization, causing me to run around......"

Ji Li stuck out her tongue: "I'm sorry for causing you trouble again, do you want me to compensate you a little?" ”

"Excuse me, don't take advantage of the chaos to satisfy your delusions**, if you are really grateful to me, don't fool me casually in the future." The necromancer waved his hand, "Then let's stay here for now and see if we can do what we can." Moreover, you must know that the more disasters are faced, the more the beautiful bonds of mutual help in human nature will shine, and perhaps Athena will learn something when she sees a group of stupid people desperately guarding the people she doesn't know......

"It's for Athena again......" Gilly pouted, pretendingly, "I'm going to be jealous." ”

Sigma is almost immune to this kind of Cheng DΓΉ's fake selling, and he has also gained insight into some of Ji Li's weaknesses in his continuous in-depth understanding, and he already has a very practical plan to deal with such Ji Li - the necromancer glanced at the paladin and said lightly: "The reason why she is so good to Athena is because she likes me, and I like her, and it is right to do something for the person I like." If you are envious, Jili, you can also like me, and then let me like you too, and in this case, I will be good to you. Come, if you are interested, you can rehearse it, look me in the eyes, and if you can seriously and honestly say the words 'I like you', I will promise you one thing, whether it is to build a dream for you or anything else, you can ......"

After finishing speaking, the necromancer slowly approached Ji Li, looked directly into the girl's eyes, and urged softly, "Come, don't I like these four words of yours?" If you don't have discipline, you can say it, these four words should be very simple, right? ”

Jili opened her mouth, but as soon as she touched Sigma's gaze, her eyes began to wander, and finally, she turned her head away with a blushing face and said angrily, "You are not ashamed! Someone is listening! ”

Sure enough...... When it comes to some innocent topics, this product is a little unbearable.

The coachman drove the car in silence, and just said softly: "Thank you for the kindness and decision of the two highnesses, I will not say a word about today's matter, if you are not at ease, you can cut off my tongue and hands." ”

Sigma exclaimed, "Kiri, you're so cruel! If you hear a few words, you're going to cut off his hands and tongue! ”

Jiri ignored his babbling, because she had just shown her frustration that Sigma seemed to show her weakness, which meant that she would not be able to lash out at Sigma in the future......

The girl was a little annoyed, and a little inexplicably happy and shy, and squirmed: "How did you show my weakness?" ”

"That's it." Sigma casually said arrogantly, "Just pay the tavern owner a handsome tip, and he will whisper to you." ”
