Chapter 124 Taking Dove in
"In just two years, nearly half of the people in my country of Il died. The Black Death swept the entire city like a demon. The streets were filled with the smell of death, and people's faces were filled with fear and despair. White cloth strips were hung in front of the doors of the houses, which was a mourning for the deceased. The streets were full of dead bodies, and no one dared to collect them. Painful wails were heard from the corners of the city from time to time. The city bells kept ringing, which were for the dead. Every day, countless coffins were carried out of the city and buried in large cemeteries. The land was dug up, and deep pits became people's final resting place. The funeral procession walked by silently and sadly, and their footsteps echoed in the silent streets. I still remember the scene when my father cried to me!" Dove cried.
"What about the people from the Vatican? Won't they help you?" I asked.
"Don't even mention those damned people. They preach peace, friendship, freedom and kindness, but when faced with difficulties, they just hide away. The priests of the Holy See are completely helpless. Only the archbishop can use advanced recovery spells to cure them. But at that time, the archbishop only cured the rich and powerful. The poor people could only wait to die!"
Another person who is at odds with the Vatican. I like him.
"They should not be your friends but your subordinates!" I asked, pointing at the rest of them.
"Well! After my father's death, those generals also died one after another, and they are all orphans! I know that Zhao State had been at war with Qin State before. Although there is a short truce now, Dracula will definitely make a comeback with his temper. I only hope that the general can uphold justice for the dead people of my Il State! If the general does not despise Dove, I am willing to work like a slave to repay your kindness!" Dove nodded.
I helped Dove up and said, "Miss, you are too polite. If you don't mind, you can go to Plato to show your skills. Uncle Roger has been complaining to me about the heavy political affairs. Miss, you can help him solve his problems in the future. It will be even better if you can become the city lord for him! As for Dracula, I can only say that the heaven and earth will see that he will get his retribution!"
"Thank you, General. Dove will give it a try! By the way, it's time to call you Young Master now!" Dove said with a smile.
"Well, just call me Master! I can come and go freely. Just tell me when you want to leave!"
"Okay, young master, this is the scabbard of the Jumping Dagger. I originally planned to get the Jumping Dagger and then exchange it with you, young master. Now that my goal has been achieved, I will give this thing to you, young master!" Dove said with a smile.
"Haha, it seems like you finally said something true! Let's go and try our luck to see if we can get the legendary jumping knife!"
Dove blushed when she heard this.
In this way, we walked slowly towards the Holy City. When we arrived in the town, I spent money to buy horses for several people, otherwise I would have to walk all the way to the Holy City. I also bought some handy weapons for several people. I have to admire the roughness of these people. They didn't even have enough money to buy a horse, but they were confident enough to say that they wanted revenge. I even doubted if I didn't take them in, would they end up on the streets. I felt more like a boy who gave away money and the people he took in were all poor. The only consolation was that Dove seemed to be really smart and capable, and she put forward many constructive suggestions. She was also well-informed and knew a lot about the Vatican. I thought Uncle Roger would be able to escape from the sea of suffering soon!
