Although Princess Gina was not convinced, she still had a trace of admiration for Duke's brave act in her heart.

Perhaps even Duke dared to approach the civilians This behavior stimulated her, Princess Jina, after hesitating for a moment, gritted her teeth and caught up with Duke and said, "Hey, I'll go with you!"

Hearing Princess Gina say this, it was Duke's turn to be surprised, because he was not a person of this era, and the medical technology of later generations was developed, and he was not too afraid of any infectious diseases, let alone the terrible scene of the Black Death in the Middle Ages.

But Gina is different, she knows far more than Duke the horror of the epidemic, and the annual outbreak of the epidemic in the French Empire is the most tense time. Even the royal family had many children who died in terrible plagues, including Jina's brothers and sisters.

"Aren't you afraid?" said this sentence, Duke returned it to Kina.

"You're not afraid, am I still afraid as an imperial princess, and I'm a vindictive existence, how can I be like you!"

Gina held her neck high, her snow-white neck looked at Duke like a proud white swan, no matter how scared she was in her heart at the moment, she didn't want to be embarrassed in front of Duke's recognized straw bag!

When he heard this, Duke had a sudden sense of enlightenment, and at the same time, the content of his memory also emerged. The existence of magic and fighting spirit in this world is just like the internal force in martial arts novels, which can greatly strengthen physical fitness and resist the invasion of diseases.

And Jina has the strength close to that of a high-level swordsman, so it is naturally difficult to be infected with the epidemic under normal circumstances. So Duke didn't block it too much, if the imperial princess appeared in the eyes of the people at this moment, it would undoubtedly be a shot in the arm for the low morale, which was much stronger than appearing alone.

Taking a step back, if there is really a problem, Jina, as the princess of the empire, can also urgently go to the imperial capital to be baptized by a high-ranking priest of the Holy See. Although Duke did not know how this kind of magic drove away diseases, in his previous memory, many diseases were indeed recovered by priest baptism, which was also the most powerful treatment in the world.

So it's not for nothing that the theocracy in this world is so strong, it is strange that it is not strong because it has military power, controls medical resources, and has a belief bonus.

Leaving the fortress, Duke and Princess Gina led their escort to the valley behind the castle, the first time Duke had traveled to the valley inside the castle since he crossed into this world. Even Duke, who had been here for more than a month, hadn't even visited the valley to take a look, because it was a completely civilian area.

The closer you get to the valley, the first thing you notice is that the houses have changed from a masonry structure to a simple civil structure, and the garbage on the ground has become more and more cluttered.

When some of the people saw Gina and Duke appear, they looked at them with fear and blankness, and they only dared to bow and salute from a distance, not to cheer and salute like the inhabitants of the castle. Because most of the people living around the valley are peasants who temporarily enter the city in winter, they are basically the lowest people in the world, and they are slightly better than slaves, so they are naturally afraid.

When he walked into the mouth of the valley, Duke really felt the bottom side of this world. Because most of the tents in the valley are makeshift tents, and the sewage in them is chaotic. Copernicus was leading the soldiers of the city's main guard, one by one, to check for the presence of sick people so that they could take quarantine measures.

But the situation is not as Duke thought before, the people of this world do not know the meaning of quarantine at all, and think that the soldiers are going to take the sick away and put them to death. So all kinds of cries and wails in the whole valley, Copernicus came and went, and explained to the people with a dry mouth.

When Gina saw this scene, she was also surprised, didn't Duke take measures to control the epidemic, why is it even more chaotic than before?

"Duke, what the hell is this doing?"

When Duke heard Jina's questioning, his head was also full of black lines, remembering that there were many family members blocking the SARS quarantine in later generations, let alone the world. These people must have feared that the soldiers would take the sick away and destroy them humanely. But don't really say it, Duke remembered that the Fran Empire had indeed done this kind of thing.

The appearance of Jina and Duke instantly attracted the attention of the people in the valley, and they shouted to Duke one after another: "Lord Lord, please don't take my family away, he only coughed slightly." ”

"Lord Lord, I don't have an epidemic, I really don't have an epidemic, don't take me away!"

"Your Royal Highness Princess, save us, we don't want to be taken away and die!"

In the face of this shout, Duke's heart was simply turbulent, he had no experience in dealing with this situation at all, and he never expected this situation to happen!

No, the people must be convinced of themselves, and the quarantine must be done, otherwise all the efforts will be in vain, and it will also undermine their credibility in Stormcastle.

Thinking of this, Duke gritted his teeth and took a step forward and shouted, "People, this epidemic isolation is not to leave the patients to fend for themselves, but to concentrate on receiving better treatment, and at the same time to avoid the possible spread of the disease. Are you willing to let your parents, husbands, wives and children get sick, or do you want them to live healthy lives?"

As soon as Duke's words came out, the shouting voice became quieter in an instant, most of the people living here were dragging their families, and Duke's words hit the weakness in their hearts.

But with such words alone, there was no way to completely dispel the doubts and fears in the hearts of the people, and soon someone took the lead and shouted: "Your lordship, there is no cure for the epidemic except for the priest of the Holy See!"

"That's right, there's no priest here!"

"Your Lord, you're deceiving us!"

This time it was like igniting a powder keg, and the people in the entire valley instantly boiled, with the medical technology of this world, there is no streptomycin and other antibiotics, and the treatment is almost dependent on their own immune system to resist, and the people do not believe that Duke has a way to treat it.

It is also true that as the people say, Duke does not have any treatment, and what he is doing now is to minimize the harm of the epidemic, which is the only thing that can be done.

In the face of the angry opposition, Princess Gina was also shocked, she has always been a high-ranking existence as a royal princess, and she has never faced the angry people so directly, she doesn't know how to appease, she can only look at Duke with helpless eyes.

At this time, I saw Duke's serious expression, and he approached those people step by step, Duke's whole action made the guards very nervous, and they subconsciously approached to protect and prevent the people from getting out of control.

But Duke stretched out his hand to stop him, he walked directly to the group of people who were "suspected" of being infected with the epidemic, looked at them and said, "I am not the lord of the past, I only care about my own safety. I appear here today, standing in front of you, to say that you are all the people of my territory, and it is my duty and mission as a lord to protect your lives and safety! Believe me, Storm Castle will overcome all difficulties!"

After Duke said this, he even put his hand directly on the head of one of the children and gently soothed it. Duke's move directly made everyone present look at him with disbelief, isn't the lord really afraid of contracting the epidemic?

In the same way, Duke's actual actions brought far more effects than words, and all the people, including the soldiers, looked at Duke with a kind of high respect, which was something that the Lord of Stormcastle had never done in hundreds of years, and Duke proved his courage and glory with his actions!
