Chapter 179 The Lord Arrives 8
The brothers Ike and Erhu worked hard and finally submitted all the time-limited tasks the day before the flood. The points they had quadrupled, and they were able to live in the detached house as they wished.
The two sides still live side by side. Although people have moved in, the furnishing of the house cannot be completed all at once for the time being, and they can only wait until after the disaster.
The top priority is to stockpile enough food and some supplies to prevent floods.
Early in the morning, Uncle Wang, wearing a red armband and holding a loudspeaker, led several newly appointed employees to go door to door to announce: Tomorrow, residents are prohibited from entering or leaving the territory at will, and they must stay in the territory!
After all the materials are collected, you can choose whether to create a primary protective shield. Chen Jia quickly created a primary protective shield, pulled the icon, and dropped the newly generated protective shield over the territory, perfectly covering the entire territory.
The function of the primary protective shield is relatively simple, and its range cannot be expanded as the territory expands. It also has a usage time of exactly one week.
If the rain lasts for more than a week, Chen Jia will have to consider using the excess materials to make another one.
In the evening, the sky suddenly darkened, a muffled thunder exploded, and then a strong wind blew. Sand and rocks rolled outside the territory, and the trees at the edge of the forest were uprooted and fell on the roadside.
"hiss--"
The residents who had gathered at the gate of the territory to watch the excitement all gasped. They had originally been hiding at home and dared not come out, but Erhu was so brave that he just stood at the gate of the territory and watched.
They saw through the window that Erhu was fine, and couldn't help but get restless, so they squeezed to the door to watch.
There was no room to squeeze in at the door, so some of the residents brought stools from home, stood on them, and looked outside over the territory's wall.
The bustle disappeared in an instant, and when the strong wind passed through the territory, it lost all its power and turned into a cool breeze.
This is the result of the territory's original protective barrier working, but it can't do more than that. After all, it is still an immature "baby".
"Eh..." Ike frowned and looked into the distance. There seemed to be a few small dots moving there. "Erhu, you have good eyesight. Come and see what's over there..."
"Let me see..." Erhu looked in the direction Ike pointed, "It looks like a group of people..."
"I'll go up and take a look--" The newly upgraded territory had two tall lookout towers added, one on the left and one on the right of the gate.
These are good things. The people in the territory know their importance and usually do not use them casually.
But at this moment, we have to take emergency measures.
Ike quickly ran up to get a clear view, and through the telescope on the observation deck, he could easily see what was happening several kilometers away.
Erhu was not mistaken. It was indeed a group of people and horses who had lost their way in the strong wind. There were fallen trees across the road leading to the territory. The horses were also frightened and were running around with the people.
After Ike went down, he told everyone what had happened.
Hannah didn't want her husband to take risks, but she also understood how fragile human power was at this time after having experienced the disaster. If no one helped, the team would probably be lost in the strong wind and get farther and farther away from their territory...
This is the nearest territory nearby.
Ike patted her hands and said, "The Lord has notified us that there will be a rainstorm tomorrow. There are still a few hours before the disaster. Don't you believe the Lord? I will be fine!"
In fact, there are only less than two hours left.
Hannah didn't dare to waste time and let her husband go. Erhu and Erniu called some strong laborers and left the territory.
Once you leave the territory, you will realize how terrible the wind outside is!
It is no exaggeration to say that if it was Hannah who came out, she would have been blown away by the wind.
Fortunately, they brought flashlights with extremely strong penetrating power, so they could see the road ahead clearly and successfully find a group of people who had gone astray.
“Who are you——”
"Don't waste time, come with us!" Ike interrupted them and helped his companions to calm the frightened horses and grab the people who fell to the ground to prevent them from being accidentally trampled.
Erhu put his arms around the two people, turned around and ran towards the territory, shouting, "Come on if you can still walk!"
The leaders who came out, who were unable to walk or were injured, took the initiative to carry them and followed Erhu's footsteps.
No one said anything and everyone tried to follow the team.
Erhu was the first to arrive at the territory. He put the people inside, gritted his teeth and ran out again.
A pair of siblings lagged far behind the group. They were dishevelled and looked distressed, and it was obvious that they were refugees.
Erhu didn't think much about it. Seeing how thin the two men were and how they were moving with difficulty against the strong wind, he picked up one with each hand and quickly ran towards the territory.
The woman he caught froze up like a piece of wood, not daring to breathe. The young man on the other side rolled his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Under Chen Jia's instruction, Uncle Wang stood guard at the gate of the territory to receive this group of lucky people.
"You must be the lord, nice to meet you!" Willent came out with the help of the guards, excitedly shook Uncle Wang's hand and thanked him.
Uncle Wang quickly explained, "You've got the wrong person. I'm not the lord. The lord sent me to receive you!"
Willent's expression remained unchanged. He smiled and thanked them, "Let me introduce myself first. I am Willent, a traveling merchant. Thank you very much for your enthusiasm. You have helped me recover a lot of losses!"
The so-called traveling merchants are businessmen who travel around various territories to do business. They have no fixed place to stay and the forces behind them are complex and intertwined.
They know clearly what specialties each territory has and what supplies are lacking, and are a type of people welcomed by many territories.
Among the traveling merchants, there are both honest businessmen and black-hearted profiteers.
The Elan Territory is lucky that Willent happens to be the former.
Every time he met refugees on his way to do business, he would allow them to reach the next territory under the protection of his team, and would not scold and drive them away like other people did.
Whether in the impression of the subjects or the refugees, Willent has always had a good reputation.
Hannah and the canteen staff cooked a full bucket of thick multi-grain porridge to entertain the hungry and thirsty guests.
Willent held the bowl of incredibly thick porridge and felt relieved.
It seems that this territory has abundant supplies, and the food provided to strangers is so good that they don’t have to worry about starving or freezing during the days of being trapped.
For this group of refugees who have been migrating with the team, staying in this territory is a wise choice.
Willent thought to himself, and after finishing a bowl of porridge, this idea became more certain.
Uncle Wang arranged for people to live in tents that had been set up in advance, and the elderly and children in poor health were placed in temporary houses for the duration, and no one had any objections.
Willent often slept in the wild. He had all the equipment for camping, but he didn't want to live together with the refugees, so he still set up his own tent.
"Have you found out everything?" He asked the guard who had just returned from a walk. The guard answered truthfully, "Sir, this is a new territory called Alan Territory. Their lord is very mysterious and possesses magical means..."
"I understand." Willente thought, it seems that he will have to find a way to meet this mysterious lord tomorrow...
Hopefully, the other party lives up to the reputation.
