Chapter 695 Refugees
In the jungle, several people were walking through it.
The sun slowly sets in the west.
It will probably get dark in an hour or two.
One of them looked up at the sky, and after observing, spoke.
"Let's find a place to rest first."
Lin Xi who spoke looked at the others.
"By the way, sort out the situation and then consider what to do next."
"That's right." Julia agreed. "It's getting dark and it will be more dangerous to continue on the road. It's necessary to find a place to hide and take a good rest."
"Then so be it." Mona also agreed.
Seeing that most people agreed, the rest didn't speak and just nodded.
So the group set off immediately.
I quickened my pace, and after walking for ten minutes, I found a small cave.
After careful inspection, I found that the animal feces inside had turned into ash.
It is estimated that no living thing has lived here for a long time.
Even the smell in the cave was just that of decay, without the stench of biological excrement.
Several people immediately decided to spend the night here.
There is no need to allocate carefully, just consciously find work for each of you.
Those who clean, those who collect firewood, those who look for clean water, and those who look for food.
After a busy meal, I finished my chores before dark.
Then they gathered in front of a fire and grilled fish quietly.
Probably because it was too quiet, so when someone spoke, it seemed extremely abrupt.
"Saril won't be finished, right?"
Lin Xin was stunned for a moment. She was actually thinking about this matter and thought she had expressed her thoughts.
Turning around, I saw it was Mona.
“With so many living dead, ordinary soldiers alone cannot resist them.
All members are the escorts of the Awakened. It seems that they are gone, right?
The most powerful Duke has been held back again and is unable to exert his full strength..."
Mona stopped as she spoke, obviously frightened by the facts described in her words.
"What you said makes sense. The possibility is extremely high." Julia agreed.
"Then... what should we do in the future?" Mona looked sad.
This wasn't just her question.
In fact, it is also a question for everyone.
In fact, they are all noble daughters. Their family, with the Salil family as the core, lived a life of superiority to others in Salil City.
However, all this was ruined.
The living dead appeared out of nowhere and rapidly proliferated in Saril City. Even the absolute core of their small group of noble daughters, the eldest lady of the Saril family, became a living dead. , got entangled with Duke Saril, and had a big fight.
If they weren't smart enough, they would have run away when they saw something was wrong.
I am afraid that I will also be trapped in the army of the living dead.
"I don't know." Julia shook her head in response to Mona's question.
She is a noble daughter and not a military advisor, so she doesn't know what to do.
To be fair, before today, she only needed to say loudly such words as 'Yes, yes, yes' and 'Miss is right' after the eldest daughter of the Salil family expressed her opinion.
No need to think too much at all.
Now she is challenging the limits of her brain.
"Then...are we becoming refugees now?" Ma Qi was a little confused. "What should we do next? Should we find the escort first? Or should we find our family first?"
It happened suddenly.
Everything is disrupted.
The girls have no clue about the future.
"There's no need to be so pessimistic, right?"
Lin Fei tried to ease the pessimistic atmosphere.
"It shouldn't be a problem for refugees, right? Maybe only part of Saril's city has fallen?"
The girls remained silent at her words.
After a while, Mona said coldly: "Do you believe this?"
She looked a little irritated.
I picked up the grilled fish and started to bite into it.
It seems that he vents all his emotions on the food.
Lin Xin picked up the grilled fish and looked at it.
Eight mature look.
He glanced at Mona again.
With a smile, he put the grilled fish next to the fire and continued to grill it.
She could somewhat understand Mona's mood.
Salil City is a new type of city.
The so-called new cities are the kind of cities that have been built in recent decades.
There is no tall, castle-like mansion, nor thick, old city walls.
Although some urban areas were renovated after the emergence of mutant beasts, they were used to prevent the invasion of mutant beasts, not to fight against the living dead.
All in all, the connectivity of the entire city is actually very high, while the protection is inversely proportional to it and is very low.
Prior to this, Salil City relied on a large and very powerful guard team for protection.
Now, when the members of the escort team may become the living dead, the protective power that Salil is most proud of is immediately equivalent to nothing.
Not as good as those old-fashioned cities.
"I hope the Duke is not dead."
Lin Xin suddenly began to pray.
It's not that the Duke is her father, so she hopes nothing happens to the Duke.
A wave of rational analysis.
Suppose the Duke dies.
Without the manager of Salil City, the possibility of regrouping and retaking the city was lost.
Correspondingly, there is no such thing as gathering subordinates and collecting resources.
People like them are very likely to become real refugees.
After all, their value is very low, and they have no use except for establishing a relationship with the Salil family and for marriage.
In times of chaos, it's not worth investing a lot of manpower and material resources to find them.
If no family members come to rescue them, they will become refugees.
What's even more terrifying is that they are all beautiful noble girls.
If you live outside, you will encounter dangers that are many times greater than those of ordinary people.
and so……
The current situation is that they are basically refugees among refugees.
Even if they escape safely to other cities, no one will necessarily recognize their noble status.
When the time comes, really, let alone the life that can only be enjoyed by the aristocratic class, I am afraid it will not be as good as even ordinary people.
Maybe if you betray your lust, there will be some drama?
If that were to happen, it would be a disaster.
Therefore, I still hope that the Duke is fine.
As long as he's not dead.
Climb high and wave, gather your subordinates, and launch a counterattack on the occupied area.
Then she would have a chance to live a good life again.
After all, if there is a choice.
Who would choose to be a refugee?
Are you sick?
"I can't tell you are so caring."
Mona looked at Lin Xi in surprise.
Lin Xin was a little confused by her expression.
"Really?" Ma Qi had a different view, "Then why doesn't she want her family to be okay? She just doesn't want to become a refugee completely. Don't you understand this kind of thing?"
"If the Duke dies...is it really troublesome?" Mona scratched her head.
She actually didn't think much about it, she just felt it after seeing Lin Xi's speech.
"Well, it's very troublesome." Lin Xin nodded.
"Why bother?" Mona still didn't understand.
"That's naturally because..."
Lin Xi, who wanted to answer, looked at the grilled fish.
ripe.
can eat.
Picked up the grilled fish and blew on it.
Take a small bite.
The fresh and tender fish meat has a special sweet aroma.
The taste is very good.
It's a pity that there is no salt and cannot be seasoned.
