Chapter 248: Outside the City, the Gathering Place of the refugees
Translator: 549690339
Not only did Fire Code City strictly restrict entry, but it was also not easy to leave the city. One needed to go through a series of complicated procedures and obtain the approval of the city guards.
Fortunately, Vivian still had a relationship with the Fire God Sect. After a brief greeting, she went to the disaster relief office outside the city through the teleportation circle.
After the silver-gray light that symbolized teleportation flashed, Vivian appeared with the wolf cub in her arms, and beside her was Elina, who was dressed as a maid.
In front of Thorin.
“Ha, I was wondering what kind of big shot would use a teleportation portal to come to our lousy place. So it’s you, Vivian! ”
Thorin waved his hand, signaling the guards in the temporary office, who were shocked by the sudden appearance of the figure and were holding their weapons with nervous and vigilant expressions, to put down their swords. “Little girl, do you remember me, this old thing?”
“Mayor Thorin, it was all thanks to you that everyone was saved in Red Flame Town. How could I forget you? “Vivian replied quickly and sincerely.
This immediately made the haggard middle-aged man, whose hair seemed to have turned much whiter overnight, finally smile.
“Haha, I knew I didn’t choose the wrong person!
Opening his arms, Mayor Thorin and Vivian hugged each other warmly.
“Rip! I almost forgot that there’s still you, little fellow…Ah, that’s not right. After seeing that scene the day before yesterday, I can’t call you little guy anymore!
The middle-aged man’s palm was about to touch the head of the wolf cub in Vivian’s arms.
Unfortunately, he failed.
The wolf cub revealed a very human-like expression of disdain. After twisting its furry head and dodging the palm of the greasy middle-aged man, it was even more afraid that the other party would still be unwilling.
So Liao Zixuan used his hind legs and chose to pull away. He moved directly from Vivian to another wolf tree.
“Ah!” The little maid exclaimed.
The little wolf cubs were so fast that before Elena could react, she felt a weight on her chest.
When she came back to her senses, the little maid quickly used her hands to hold it and adjusted her posture, carefully afraid that the little wolf cub would feel uncomfortable.
This wolf tree was almost done training.
It was also because of this opportunity that Mayor Thorin realized that there was someone following behind the little girl.
” Vivian, the person next to you is…”
“Suppress… Hello, mayor! My name is Elena, a maid from the Sisre family. The Earl has instructed me to take care of Lady Vivian’s daily life in Fire Code City!
“So it’s like this…” I almost forgot, Vivian, you are now considered a big shot in our Fire Code City!
‘ Of course not. Mayor Thorin, please don’t be like this…”
“Sigh, don’t call me Mayor Thorin. There’s no Red Flame Town now. Little girl, if you don’t mind, you can call me uncle.
At the mention of this, the expression on Soran’s face quickly darkened.
The person with the highest status among the refugees outside the city was probably the former mayor of Red Flame Town.
Therefore, the nobles of Fire Code City unanimously agreed that before the official decision on the refugees was made, Thorin would be the director of the temporary disaster relief office outside the city.
However, to put it bluntly, it was just a title. There were not many resources that could be used.
No one was willing to be the sucker to pay for the refugees. Later, it was said that it was Harvey who caused a ruckus in the noble meeting, forcing every noble to squeeze out some money and share it together. Only then did they have a pitiful amount of resources to distribute so that the refugees would not starve to death.
That was why Mayor Thorin looked so haggard when Vivian first saw him.
‘ Uncle Thorin, it’s alright. I came here for this. Now, everyone outside the city… How’s the situation?” After exchanging pleasantries, Vivian soon arrived at the main topic.
He sighed.
Thorin shook his head tiredly.
“Sigh, it’s better for you to see it with your own eyes no matter how much I say…Come with me.”
Solin and Harvey were old acquaintances, so he was naturally a man of action.
In the office, the guards from Red Flame Town immediately got ready to be Thorin’s bodyguards.
There was a reason why they were so nervous. If there was a word to describe the situation outside the city, it would be… Chaos.
Robbery, kidnapping, fighting…
There were also a series of vicious incidents that happened one after another. It was very unsafe.
Therefore, even if he was the most powerful person outside the city, he had to be careful and bring more people with him, or else he might encounter something.
But this time…
“Go, go, go. You guys stay here obediently. How can you inspect the situation with so many people? “Thorin waved his hand.
‘ But, Lord Mayor, the peace won’t be in danger…”
A hotheaded guard was still blocking the mayor from leaving. This made Thorin glare at him and hit him on the head.
“What danger! Can’t you see the little girl beside me? All of you added together aren’t even enough to match one of her fingers.. Could it be that those criminals mixed in with the refugees are more powerful than the demon wave monsters from a few days ago? Alright, alright, brat, get out of the way!
