Phew… Whoosh..
She took off her maid outfit and changed back into her original clothes.
After finally coming out of the castle, Chris found an empty corner of the alley and deactivated Stealth. He panted heavily.
Logically speaking, it should have been a very simple operation.
But…
He recalled the experience in the bathroom just now.
Even now, Chris’s hands were still trembling, and cold sweat was dripping down his forehead.
He…
He seemed to have unintentionally discovered some shocking secret!
Chris had originally planned to go to the bathroom to tidy up his maid’s luggage. However, Count Sisre’s sudden intrusion, coupled with his own curiosity, led to everything that happened after that.
So… So that was the true side of Count Sisre?
Chris couldn’t help but recall what he had overheard.
“What exactly does the Earl want to do to Liz? From the tone of his voice, it sounded as if he was a contender. Was he going to use his own daughter to perform some evil ritual?”
Hiss! No! No!
How could he care about this now?
Chris quickly shook his head. The secret about Lissy was only a small part of the truth. What shocked him the most was that the earl mentioned another thing.
“What is a true god? Could it be that the Earl still believed in gods other than the Fire God? The Earl also mentioned that…The Northern Forest. If I remember correctly, the tens of thousands of refugees outside the city were also the reason for the construction of the Teleportation Gate.
“But the Earl said they were moving? Who were they? What was the count talking about our compatriots, and… Also…”
‘What do you mean, they are coming to Fire Code City!? “Chris frowned even more.
Why was it that everything had been fine, but Count Sisre had almost discovered it? It was because of this sentence that Chris could not help but breathe in disorder.
After all…
The refugees had already passed through the portal and arrived at Fire Code City. This clearly did not match the arrival of the Earl’s compatriots.
Except for the refugees…
Could it be…Would there be anything else coming out of that portal?
Just as Chris was about to grasp onto something, a commotion from outside the alley interrupted him.
“Hmm?”
“What happened?” Chris immediately became alert. At this juncture, every abnormal phenomenon made him tense.
When he quickly ran out of the alley, Chris realized that many of the people on the street had stopped in their tracks. They were pointing at the sky in the direction of the Fire God Square, as if they were discussing something.
When Chris followed the crowd’s gaze and looked up at the sky above the Fire God Square, he could not help but exclaim in surprise.
“This… What is this?” “Magic projection?”
Hiss…
Which force was this? Why did he do this?
But soon, Chris began to understand when he heard the discussions of the residents on the streets.
“How pitiful these refugees are…”
“Mom, why are they all sleeping on the ground?”
“Look over there! A few more people fainted and fell to the ground. Sigh! ”
“Damn it! Even if they aren’t residents of our Fire Code City, they are still citizens of our Flame Region who are protected by the Fire God. What are the city guards doing? Where are the rescue supplies?”
I heard that it’s because this disaster came too suddenly. No one was prepared for it…
“Forget it, forget it. I happen to have some spare money recently. I’ll donate it to help them.
‘ Sigh, my heart is also too soft. I can’t see others suffering, so add me a heart.
“And me!”
At first, it was just one or two voices, but people’s feelings could resonate.
More and more people joined the donation line. They walked towards the Fire God Square, which was the direction of the magic projection.
It was said that the sponsor of the magic projection had set up a donation office there.
Chris touched his left pocket, then his right pocket. He rummaged through his entire body and finally collected a dozen silver coins.
“Damn it, I’ve suffered a loss. I’ve really suffered a huge loss this time!” While cursing, Chris followed the donation crowd to Vulcan Square.
He knew that once the officials received a large amount of donations and had the ability to buy supplies for the disaster relief outside the city, then his idea of letting Little Seven and the others sell supplies in advance would definitely be ruined.
Although he was about to cry, Chris still felt a warm current flowing through his body when he saw everyone around him, including some beggars, join the donation team.
He seemed to recall the Fire Code City from more than ten years ago when he was young.
This was the real Fire Code City!
This was how the Flame Domain people should be!
At this moment, Chris was not only going to donate money to the refugees outside the city, but he also wanted to see for himself which force could come up with a perfect way to make up for it at such a critical moment. It was even the opposite. He wanted to use this as an opportunity to revitalize the atmosphere of the entire Fire Law City.
Finally!
When they arrived at the Fire God Square, as expected, there was a long queue for donations. Chris would never have believed that the people of Fire Code City could line up to give money to others.
Fortunately, the person in charge of collecting donations looked very experienced and efficient. One look and one could tell that he must have been trained by some big force.
After a while, it was Chris’s turn. He reluctantly took out his money pouch, opened it, and poured it into the donation box with the words ‘Silver Coin’.
Chris instinctively glanced at the box and was surprised to find that it had only been a short while, and the entire box was almost full.
“Thank you for your kindness.”
“We will definitely exchange all the donations for materials of equivalent value, and then the City Defense Army will hand them over to the refugees outside the city.
The servant girl at the reception said the same lines to everyone who donated money and showed the same smile.
Chris nodded. He wasn’t worried about his donations being misused.
After all, he didn’t believe that someone would make such a big fuss just to profit from it and cheat them of their money. Secondly, there was a magic projection here, so everyone could see at a glance whether everyone’s money had been converted into supplies.
What a brilliant plan!
The more Chris thought about it, the more he couldn’t help but slap his thigh. He was eager to know who exactly was the mastermind behind Fire Code City.
Hiss…
Speaking of which, the maid’s clothes…Why does it look so familiar?
Wait… Wait a minute!
It was as if a bolt of lightning had struck his mind.
Chris was stunned.
“Yes… Can I ask, your family…Who is the master of the family?
“Count Sisre, sir..”
