Since Princess Shannon won the first battle in Haiyue City, she subsequently conquered several provinces, each time ending in victory.
Facing Hailan's disadvantage, Jinque instantly reversed his position.
The positive situation gave the leaders of the major provinces hope. They felt that they would be able to regain their lost ground in the end and victory was in sight. Therefore, after the factors that troubled foreign enemies were reduced, each province began to focus on solving the internal problem-the refugee problem.
Among them, Waterford is more inclined to Konya's approach to solving the refugee problem.
Refugees are encouraged to solve their own problems.
During the day, refugees can enter the city to work after being registered. At night, the refugees rest in resettlement areas outside the city.
Although running around like this every day is very tiring, at least most of the refugees have a hope.
Daluk is one of these refugees, but what is special about him is that he not only has to support himself, but also his grandfather.
In the process of fleeing, refugees rarely think about older people. Many older people are either eliminated halfway due to physical strength, or simply stay in the original village without causing trouble to their families.
Therefore, it is rare to see very old people in refugee areas.
Daluk's grandfather is an exception. He is now over seventy years old, but he has traveled nearly a thousand miles from the fallen province next door to Waterford, all thanks to Daluk's care.
The grandfather and grandson relied on each other and finally got through the difficult stage. Now Daluk could go to the city to help work during the day and improve his life. But at this moment, a thunderbolt fell from the sky.
Daluk's grandfather suffered from a strange disease. It felt like there were insects crawling all over his body, with a large number of red sores and edema, and pus leaking non-stop every day. This excruciating disease made Daluk's grandfather almost unable to
Live a normal life.
Daluk worked part-time every day to earn money, and finally managed to collect enough money to pay for a doctor.
But the doctor was unwilling to visit the doctor, so Daluk could only carry his grandfather into the city. However, he was stopped by the guards at the city gate.
Although refugees can enter the city to work, the condition of Daluk's grandfather is too frightening. It looks like a skin infection. In order to protect the safety of the people in the city, the guards are naturally unwilling to let Daluk's grandfather enter.
"My grandfather's illness is not contagious. I am by his side every day. Look, I am fine now." Daluk begged.
The refugee on the side also helped to speak: "Yes, he has been sick for more than a month, and he was already infected if he was going to be infected. Daluk finally collected enough medical expenses, so let him go in."
After all, the guards at the city gate were just pawns, and those who took advantage of the situation were mostly upper-level people. Seeing so many people begging for mercy, they were a little embarrassed. They couldn't help but look at the city defense captain, and saw that the captain was shaking his head, so they could only make up their mind to continue.
Refuse Daluk's request.
Even if Daluk knelt on the ground and begged, he could not be let into the city gate.
Instantly, he felt sad. He only had his grandfather as a relative. If he couldn't save his grandfather, he... Daluk felt so tight in his chest that he couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"Oh, I was so angry that I vomited blood." The surrounding refugees shook their heads and left. They didn't dare to really tell the guards anything, they just gave a few words of help. What's more, it was the time to go to work during the day.
When Angel came to the city gate, he saw a boy younger than him, kneeling next to an old man and sobbing. There was a pool of blood on the ground.
Angel's arrival, from his dress to his aura, was incompatible with the surrounding refugees.
When Angel showed his family emblem, the guards did not dare to stop him, and even the city defense captain came to express his respect.
Daluk learned from the guards that the young man in front of him, not much older than him, was actually a nobleman. He looked at his unconscious grandfather lying on the ground, gritted his teeth, and rushed towards the noble young man...
Angel looked at the boy kneeling on the ground, holding his shoes, and was speechless.
From the mouth of this young man named Daluk, Angel roughly understood his request. He wanted to enter the city to take his grandfather to see a doctor, but the guards refused him because they were worried about infection.
When the guards on the side saw the refugees rushing against the nobles, they immediately stepped forward to arrest Daluk.
Angel glanced at Daluk's grandfather and waved to the guard: "Let him in, his grandfather's illness is not contagious."
The guards were stunned and looked at each other for a moment, not knowing whether to arrest or release the person at this moment.
After a while, the city defense captain came over and looked at Daluk: "Since the nobles have given you the opportunity, then you can go in. However, if your grandfather's exposed skin is wrapped, even if there is no infectious disease, if
If you scare the public and someone complains against you, then I will have no choice but to act in accordance with the law."
Daluk did not expect that things would take a turn for the worse. He even thought that he would be beaten to death for rushing into the nobles, because there had been precedents of refugees being killed after staring at the nobles.
He quickly kowtowed to Angel and at the same time took off his coat to cover his grandfather's exposed skin.
Angel looked at the excited Daluk and shook his head gently, "Compared to your grandfather, I think you may need to see a doctor more."
After Angel left these words, he turned around and entered the city.
After Angel entered the city, he seemed to be strolling leisurely along the way, but when he saw some shops selling tools or raw materials, he would stop and move the entire shop into the wilderness of dreams through the dream conch.
Originally, he planned to be the first city in the Wilderness of Dreams, and every building must have its own characteristics. But later he found that he could be aesthetically pleasing to a single building. But after he put in a bunch of beautiful buildings, because
All the inconsistencies make it unattractive.
So now he doesn't have to be picky about the building and just moves the shop in. Even if it doesn't look good, he can renovate it since Flood is inside.
After completing his promise to Froude, Angel walked up to a building that was entirely blue and looked like a surging ocean tide.
This is the Ocean Theater.
Angel used to admire this place very much because the music master Megeve, whom he admired as a child, would perform at the Ocean Theater every time he went on a national tour as long as there was a stop in Waterford.
This is a dream place of his childhood.
In the whole of Waterford, only the Ocean Theater is the most distinctive. Angel plans to move the Ocean Theater into the Field of Dreams. Even if the Ocean Theater is now of no use in the Field of Dreams, it can be regarded as fulfilling a vision he had when he was a child.
.
When Angel was about to take out the Dream Conch, he suddenly saw a young man sitting at the door of the Ocean Theater.
It was the young man named Daluk that he had seen at the door before.
He was shirtless and sitting on the steps in front of the theater with a dull look on his face. His grandfather, who also woke up from a coma, sat next to him.
Daluk's grandfather was weeping silently, while Daluk was leaning against the flower bed, lost in thought.
Neither of them spoke, until Daluk heard footsteps coming from behind, and then he slowly came back to his senses: "Excuse me, I'll leave right away... Hey, is it your noble lord?"
Daluk originally thought it was the guards of the Ocean Theater who came to drive them away, but when he turned around, he saw that it was the noble young man who had helped him enter the city before.
Daluk bowed respectfully.
Angel looked at him quietly: "Looking at you, you don't seem to be satisfied with the doctor's diagnosis?"
"No, the doctor said that there is no big problem with my grandfather..." Daluk didn't expect that a nobleman would care about low-class people like them, and he even trembled when he replied.
"I know your grandpa isn't sick. The person I'm asking about is you." Angel glanced at Grandpa Daluk. Even though his whole body was covered with abscesses and redness, his mental strength swept away and he discovered that Daluk
Grandpa Ke’s body is basically normal.
His symptoms were a bit like mental hallucinations, because he suddenly encountered a change in the environment, from a clean and regular life to a refugee area with shabby shanties. So, when he saw a few insects crawling on his body, he imagined that his whole body was bitten by insects.
After eating, the parasitic illusion finally appeared, and the body actively responded to stress.
Ultimately, it turns out that there is nothing wrong with it, it's just that they think too much. However, patients generally don't think so. They think they must have a physical disease, and they may even end up with unbearable itching and pus leaking to death.
On the contrary, it was Daluk. Angel had felt before that the blood in Daluk's body was floating and his body functions were slowly declining. It was a bit similar to Jon's situation, but Daluk was not eroded by the great will. It should be
He is suffering from some kind of disease.
Daluk smiled sadly: "The doctor said that I have twilight syndrome, a medically terminal disease, and said that I will not live for a week."
Twilight syndrome? Angel had never heard of this symptom. All he knew about medicine was from Jon’s professor when he was a child, and most of it was the names of diseases on Earth.
"Sir, are you a doctor?" The question came from Grandpa Daluk, who was scratching at the side. With tears in his eyes, "Sir, can you tell that something is wrong with Daluk's body because you are a doctor?
Then...can you save Daluk? If you can save Daluk, even if I have to die immediately, I am willing."
Angel paused and looked at Daluk: "I'm not a doctor. I can't save you, but I can let you live in another way. But from now on, you will completely leave the Old Continent. Are you willing?
?”
When Angel felt that Daruk's symptoms were inexplicably similar to Jon's, he decided to include him in the list of experimental samples.
What's more, Daluk himself is indeed suffering from an incurable disease.
Daruk was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Angel meant, but Angel did not continue to explain. He just put the choice in front of him and let him make his own choice.
"If I leave, what will happen to my grandfather..." Daluk looked at his only relative worriedly.
"Don't worry about me, I can take care of myself on my own." Grandpa Daluk expressed quickly, but Daluk didn't believe it at all when he saw the abscesses and redness all over his grandfather's body.
Daluk couldn't worry about his grandfather, but if Angel didn't save him, he would eventually die.
