"A total of 265 children have been sent back to their homes."
"All the medicines and supplies that we brought have been distributed, and the rest of the supplies that you asked us to collect have also been deployed and are on their way."
At a street intersection near the border, Flying Squirrel saluted with a military salute and reported the report with a solemn expression.
"well done."
Nuo Xia was busy and had no time to look up, so she just replied casually.
In the middle of winter, he only wore a white vest and was repairing the hut in front of him. His body was covered with blackened charcoal marks, muddy with sweat, and looked slovenly. If you ignore that face, his whole body looked sloppy.
Just like a mason, there is no difference.
The god-like figure who single-handedly pushed back hundreds of thousands of troops last night seemed to be two different people from him.
The flying squirrel was about to come up to help, but Nuo Xia waved his hand, nailed the last piece of wood beside the window lattice, wiped his sweat and stood up with a long breath.
"It's done."
Nuo Xia clapped his hands, picked up the coat hanging aside with a smile, and put it on his shoulders, "Let's go and walk around the city to see if there is anyone else who needs help."
"Yes, Lieutenant General."
The flying squirrel nodded subconsciously and followed closely.
"Thank you, Uncle Navy!"
A childish voice suddenly sounded behind him. The flying squirrel turned his head and looked around, only to see a little girl of eight or nine years old, waving goodbye.
It wasn't until Nuo Xia smiled and waved to her that the little girl returned to the wooden house, jumping up and down, spinning around the restored house, looking left and right, her pale little face full of joy.
"Is that child the only one?"
The flying squirrel turned his head and asked hesitantly, "Where are her parents?"
"They are all dead."
Although he had expected it, when Nuo Xia opened his mouth to answer, the flying squirrel couldn't help but trembled in his heart, "A week ago, I couldn't hold on and died of platinum lead disease on the same day. I relied on the help of my neighbors to bury him hastily.
.”
"This situation is just an insignificant microcosm of the tragic experiences this city has suffered in the past month."
Nuo Xia kept looking straight ahead and said calmly, "A month ago, the total population of Freifans was a full 200,000, but now, there are only less than 80,000 people alive in the city."
"That is to say, more than 60%, a total of 120,000 people died..."
The flying squirrel murmured. He felt a tightness in his chest and couldn't say the second half of the sentence.
"There's no need to react so loudly, right?"
Nuo Xia said calmly, "I have been in the navy for so many years, and I have never seen any scene. I have encountered many scenes where entire villages and entire islands are dead."
"That's what I said..."
The flying squirrel's voice was bitter, "But Lieutenant General, this time is different after all..."
The kind of human tragedy he encountered in the past was basically caused by pirates committing evil acts, burning, killing, and looting;
But this time, the nightmare that the people of Frevanth have had for the past month is completely the result of the bad consequences caused by the manipulation of the World Government and people from the CP department.
This was really hard for him to accept, and he was even in a state of mind similar to that of Aoki after experiencing the Demon-Slaying Order incident. He began to have violent shakes and doubts about the white cloak he wore and the so-called justice and order he protected...
Although the lieutenant general looked calm and indifferent in his words, the anger and aggrievedness in his heart was no less than his own, right?
The flying squirrel subconsciously looked up at Nuo Xia in front of him, trying to find clues of suppressed anger in the expression on the latter's face.
However.
He didn't find what he guessed from Nuo Xia's expression. Nuo Xia's expression was colder than his tone, but his gaze... seemed a little different from the past, as if he was firm in something, and looked particularly deep.
It's so profound that it's a little heart-stopping...
"What are you looking at?"
Nuo Xia's voice suddenly brought his thoughts back to reality. The flying squirrel was startled and found that the latter had turned his head and looked at him strangely, "Why, the dust on my face hasn't been wiped clean yet?"
"without……"
The flying squirrel shook his head hurriedly, and just as he was about to explain something, Nuo Xia had already stopped, as if something suddenly occurred to him, and ordered:
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention it. When the sailors who escorted the children come back later, we will arrange for them to go door-to-door to announce that everyone will gather in the central square tonight. Remember, no one can be missed."
"Eh?"
The flying squirrel was stunned and asked in astonishment: "Do you have something to announce?"
"Then there's no need to go through such a big battle."
Nuo Xia shook his head and squinted at the rising sun in the sky: "There are just some things I need to try...perhaps, we can cure everyone in White Town once and for all."
————————
After the navy soldiers went door-to-door to publicize it, and the enthusiastic children rushed to help, all the people in Freifans had received such a message before evening.
——Lieutenant General Bai Longnuoxia, has found a solution to the platinum lead disease, and will treat all of them in the square tonight.
This undoubtedly sounds like nonsense. If it had been anyone else, even the marshal of the Navy Headquarters, he would have been scolded by the sick people long ago.
But the one who sent out this announcement was Nuo Xia, who saved the entire white town just last night.
Therefore, when night fell that day, most people set off to the central square without hesitation.
The remaining residents who were dubious, either finally chose to believe in Nuo Xia, or could not stand the persuasion of neighbors and friends, so they also rushed over in twos and threes.
Around eight o'clock in the evening.
The central square, usually used for grand celebrations, was already packed with people. Most of the people were sitting on the floor, and some of them were seriously ill. They were carried on stretchers and were given intravenous drips and were still in a coma.
Nuo Xia stood on a high place in front of the fountain, looking at the surviving people through the night.
"More than 80,000 people..."
Nuo Xia murmured to himself, "The square is not too big, right? I don't know if it can be covered all at once..."
The reason why he dared to guarantee his reputation and mobilized all the people to gather in the square was naturally based on his credentials, and this credibility came from the fact that he purchased a high-priced item from the system mall two months ago.
