Chapter 282 Grand Duke Desiree

"We have antibiotics, and some topical anti-inflammatory drugs." Wolf took a medicine bottle from his pocket.

Mills stared at the medicine bottle for a long time and said, "Great, the princess is ill, these medicines may save her..."

"Princess?"

"Yes, the Grand Duke's youngest daughter is also his only surviving child." Mills lowered his voice, "She is in very poor health and has been sick. I am very worried about her condition."

"Can I go and see her?"

"Of course, if you know medicine."

"I'm not a doctor, but I'm a friend with a doctor and I understand a little bit."

"That's great! Please come with me!" Mills finished speaking and hurriedly got up and brought Wolfe and the others into the inner room.

There are many rooms in the same square shape as the outside. The walls are all engraved with words, some have been converted into living areas, and some are full of debris.

After walking through large and small houses for a while, Mills brought Wolfe to a bedroom with a door curtain, motioned for others to stay outside, and then went in to make an announcement. After obtaining consent, he took Wolfe Bring it in.

Wolf opened the curtain made of lizard skin, walked in and saw that the furnishings inside were very simple, with only a stone bed, a stone table and two stools.

A platform was cut out of the stone against the wall, and personal items such as clothes and jewelry were placed on it. It was not covered, and it looked very shabby.

"This is Princess Shilin." Mills pointed to a noble woman on the bed and said.

"Hello, Your Royal Highness." Wolfe saluted the princess.

The princess was about the same age as Mills, and equally skinny.

Although she was lying ill on the bed with her eyes closed, her hair was combed meticulously, her face was clean, and the damaged parts of her yellow dress were carefully repaired. Obviously, in such an embarrassing situation, the princess still maintained her beauty. With their own dignity.

"Did he really treat Princess Neng?" Countess Duff, the princess' nurse, asked in a low voice.

"They came from Xinghai, and they have medicine on them, which will definitely help the princess." Mills replied.

Wolfe carefully checked the princess's face, asked about Princess Mills' symptoms, and said, "Princess should be suffering from pneumonia. I don't know if the medicine I brought is effective, but you can give her a try. "

After speaking, Wolf handed the medicine bottle to Mills.

Mills took the medicine bottle and held it in his hand like a treasure, then carefully poured out a pill and swallowed it without hesitation.

The countess looked at him worriedly, for fear that he would suddenly yell and then vomit blood and die suddenly.

A few minutes later, Mills was safe and sound, so he handed the medicine bottle to the countess, and asked the lady to give the princess the medicine to try.

"If it's really effective, then you will be of great help." Mills took Wolfe out, "It's really a big help."

"You're welcome. Willing to help you."

"Captain Wolfe, the Grand Duke wants to see you." At this moment, Rich came out from the aisle next to the princess.

Wolf motioned for everyone to follow, and then led by Rich to the Grand Duke's office and living room.

It is said to be an office, but it is actually a bigger cave. There are no tables or seats in it, and everyone can only stand.

The Grand Duke with long silver hair in a long robe is sitting on a rock, and the shimmering light of fluorite is projected from above and shines on the top of his head, making it look as if he is glowing.

"Grand Duke, I brought the visitor." Rich finished speaking and turned to introduce Wolff: "Everyone, this is His Majesty the Grand Duke of Santa Dia: Desiree Gabriel Hammels."

The emaciated Grand Duke Desiré opened his eyes, scanned them slowly, and then said in a low voice, "I never expected to see visitors from Xinghai in this life."

"Nice to meet you, Your Majesty the Grand Duke." Wolf saluted.All the team members followed suit.

"I'm sorry. You've come a long way, and I can't even give you a seat, and I can't hold a banquet for you."

"You are very kind. It is a great honor that you are willing to see us."

"It's also my honor to meet you. I thought God had abandoned me, but now it seems that God finally gave me the last chance, so that I don't have to carry a secret to the grave."

secret?

Hearing this word, Wolfe immediately focused.

"Everyone, please drink tea." At this time, Rich ordered the attendants to pour tea.

Everyone took the teacups one after another, and looked down to see that the teacups were all made of stone, with different shapes, and filled with clear cold water.

"This is the dripping water collected from the rock wall. It has already settled. Although it is a bit cold, it should be clean." Rich said with a smile.

"Thank you." Wolf took a sip from his teacup.

"As you can see." Grand Duke Desiree said in a hoarse voice, "Since we were driven here by the rebels, we have cut off all sources of livelihood, and even food can only be collected from moss and moss on the rocks. Catch the occasional lizard. If you'd come a few years later, there might be no one alive here."

"May I ask what happened in Sandia? Why did the war break out?" Wolff asked.

"Why did the war break out? Heh... it's all about food." Grand Duke Desiré sighed helplessly, "In the first few years, the underground life was still able to maintain, but soon it was not enough. The food production was greatly reduced. The number of rats and lizards everywhere has decreased due to frantic hunting. People began to fight over a square meter of land and a pot of food (measurement unit, about half a bucket), and the ground became chaotic.”

"From 1423 to 1569, in this short period of more than 100 years, three plagues and six wars broke out in Sandia, and the population dropped sharply from 3 to less than 6, almost destroying the country."

"Later, fortunately, a very capable leader came out: Grand Duke Compton. He ended the chaos, rebuilt Sundia, and sent special forces to search for food, soil and seeds on the ground. Under his leadership Now, Sandia, which was nearly extinct, survived again, and restarted the weapon research and development that had been interrupted for decades. The place where you are standing now is one of the laboratories of the research institute."

Hearing this, everyone looked around curiously.

"Did you build this place, or did it already exist?" Wolfe asked.

"To be precise, we should have discovered it." Grand Duke Desiré replied, "This place was once prosperous and produced countless new weapons. It is precisely because of these weapons that we have continued to survive, and the population has gradually recovered. Up to a hundred thousand."

　Another secret is about to be revealed, I'm really excited to think about it~!
