They got off the carriage when they were some distance away from the East District, and the three people who started walking finally arrived at this place where countless low-class people lived.
If other areas of Backlund give people the impression of being spacious, clean, and prosperous, then the impression given by the East District is probably not a good word except that it is dirty and messy.
"They, why are they sleeping on the ground like this?" Standing next to a house in the East District, Audrey looked at the homeless man huddled on the ground in the corner not far away in astonishment. She saw that there were men and women among those people.
Women, old and young, all huddled together.
It's already November, and although November in Backlund isn't particularly cold, it's still normal to sleep outside in this weather and not wake up.
"Because they have no choice. They have no other place to sleep. Even being able to sleep here for a while is considered lucky for them." Lin Ruo also looked at these people, his eyes were deep and he said softly.
Of course, Lin Ruo has taken corresponding measures to deal with the problem of housing these homeless people in the East District. Unfortunately, just like distributing food, it is still a drop in the bucket for the people in the entire East District.
He can help some people, but he can only help some people.
"Lucky? What's so lucky about this?" Viscount Graylingt asked in surprise.
Audrey seemed to have thought of something, bit her lower lip and fell silent.
"The laws of the Kingdom do not allow homeless people to sleep outside, but they do not have their own place to live. They can only find a corner to sleep for a while when others are not paying attention. But many times they often cannot sleep for long before they are driven away...
Lin Ruo looked at Viscount Gray Lint and replied.
At this moment, an East District police officer wearing a black-and-white checkered uniform, carrying a short stick, and a pistol walked over. He obviously spotted the homeless people lying on the ground, and shouted from a distance: "
Hey, you guys, get up..."
While shouting, the other party came closer waving the short stick in his hand.
Some of the homeless people in the corner got up quickly when they heard the sound, and some were still lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were asleep or didn't want to get up.
And the result for those who didn't get up was, of course, beatings with short sticks.
"How could this be like this..." Viscount Graylingt had obviously never seen such a thing. With a sense of justice, he immediately rolled up his sleeves and rushed over, but was grabbed by Lin Ruo.
"Roldy, why are you dragging me? He's beating people. Don't you usually sympathize with those people the most?" Viscount Graylingt asked doubtfully.
"He didn't really use any force, and he was just doing his duty." Lin Ruo shook his head and said.
Are homeless people wrong? They just want to rest.
But was the East District police officer wrong? He was just doing his duty.
Lin Ruo knew this very well, so he just watched this scene quietly. After all the homeless people dispersed, he turned around and said, "Let's go, let's go somewhere else."
See the other side of the world.
Look at all this deformity.
…
The Land Abandoned by the Gods is still shrouded in deep darkness, and is still the outskirts of the abandoned Temple of the True Creator.
The exploration team from Silver City seems to have just arrived here. Everyone is carrying animal skin lanterns and is wary of walking in this dangerous area.
Derrick held the Darkless Cross and walked next to Colin Iliad. He looked left and right. Although he didn't notice anything wrong, he still prayed to the Fool in his heart.
This is what Mr. Chariot told him. Regardless of whether he noticed something was wrong or not, he must remember to pray to Mr. Fool in time after arriving at the outside of the Temple of the Fallen Creator.
Gu Zhi
Above the gray fog, he sensed the prayer of the little sun again. This was the second time that Klein came to check the situation. He glanced at the crimson star representing the little sun and fell into silence.
Although his vision was blurry, Klein could still tell that the position of the little sun seemed to be the same as before?
But haven’t they all entered the temple? Are they coming out now?
Although he only paid attention to it for a short time because of spiritual issues, he was still very sure that Little Sun had followed others into the temple before and Klein the Fool was lost in thought.
He decided to watch a little longer this time to see what was going on.
In the Land Abandoned by the Gods, Derrick, who was holding the Darkless Cross and the animal skin lantern, had joined the half-collapsed temple with Colin Iliad, the chief of Silver City.
After entering the temple, the first thing that came into everyone's sight was naturally the statue of the true Creator. However, before Derrick could raise his head to take a closer look, he heard the voice of the chief next to him:
"Don't look at the face of the statue, it may cause some bad things."
Derrick quickly stopped moving.
Because the temple is very large, we naturally have to explore in groups. Derrick was not assigned to a group with the chief, but started exploring the temple with another teammate. Derrick soon arrived.
We arrived in front of a wall covered with murals.
Derrick looked at the mural and saw that at the top of the mural was a huge dark cross with a vague shadow hanging on it.
Below is a plain, with a long procession on the plain. This seems to be a procession composed of believers of the Fallen Creator, because Derrick saw some people kneeling in the murals and some praying devoutly.
However, the faces of these believers are all blurred, and the only one who can be clearly drawn is the person at the front of the line.
It was a tall and thin man with silver hair that reached down to his vest.
This man has soft facial features, his head is lowered, his eyes are closed, and there are layers of wings of light behind him.
Angel of Destiny!
The Angel of Destiny mentioned by Mr. Chariot!
Derrick was inevitably a little excited when he looked at the man on the mural. At this moment, he heard the chief's voice coming from the side:
"What did you find?"
"Angel, this seems to be the Angel of Destiny in the records. Well, I have seen a description of him in an ancient book." Derrick glanced at the chief who came to him at an unknown time and replied.
"The Angel of Destiny..." Colin Iliad paused. He glanced at Derrick and said nothing. He just didn't know what he thought of. Then he also looked at the mural and his eyes fell on the end of the mural.
below.
That is a river, a river stepped on by the angel of fate, a river connected end to end.
"...The Tail-Eater, Ourolius."
He seemed to have thought of something and frowned fiercely.
"Chief, what's wrong?" Derrick asked curiously.
"I suspect that we may have stepped into a river that is connected end to end and cannot be left." Colin Iliad said solemnly.
