Zongman: About my reincarnation as a slime

Chapter 68: The Rebuilt City

"No, Saili, you are the one who worked hard."

Theros raised his hand and touched the long hair of the girl in front of him like a big brother. The smile on his face became gentler and looked at her. Looking at the handsome and gentle Theros in front of him, there was a trace of shyness on the girl's delicate face. When other people saw this scene, they also smiled with blessings.

Half a month ago, due to wars, disasters and various reasons, a large number of refugees fled their homes and began to go to the legendary peaceful, powerful and beautiful Eastern Empire. During the process of fleeing, a large number of refugees met and formed A huge contingent of refugees fled together into the territory of the Eastern Empire.

Later, they met Lord Irezia and Lord Theros who were training at the time. After the two adults learned about the situation of these refugees, they not only did not expel them from the Eastern Empire, but accepted them.

And led them here. Lord Irezia led all the men among the refugees to start building their city, while the gentle and powerful Lord Theros led the soldiers to protect their safety and for them. Hunt for food.

"We are really lucky to meet these two adults."

"Yes, yes! Whether it is Lord Irezia or Lord Theros, each of them is doing the most difficult and arduous work, but they never say anything. Not only are they powerful, but they are also so gentle, even when facing I don’t have any disdain for a useless old guy like me.”

An old man with an old face and snow-white hair looked at Theros not far away and the city under construction that could be vaguely seen in the distance. His eyes were full of respect and admiration, and the little girl beside her also agreed. He nodded, the fervent admiration in his eyes almost overflowing.

On the way to escape, they all experienced various things, including food being robbed and being bullied, and this was all from fellow escapees. In addition to the ubiquitous dangers on the road besides human beings, how could they survive the escape along the way? People who come here.

They were all right, and they were full of respect for Theros and Irezia, who had given them safety, food, and led them to build their own home, including those Eastern Empire soldiers who had been protecting them.

For these refugees, Theros and Irezia are their lights of hope!

"By the way, I heard that the name of the city has been decided. It is said to be named after Lady Irezia. Our future home will be called Irezia."

At this time, a young man with dust all over his body came over, his tired face full of smile. When he mentioned the name of the city, his eyes were full of excitement, excitement and hope.

"Arizia. What a good name."

A smile appeared on the old man's old face, and he slowly turned his head to look at the people coming and going in the camp. The refugees who had suffered so much and were wary of everyone were all smiling now. Everyone was like a family. At the edge of the camp, soldiers wearing black armor and holding weapons were training. Their strong bodies, iron-blooded temperament, and weapons that shone with cold light made everyone feel safe.

At this moment, the old man who once fled the war and lost his home and relatives, but whose instinct was to live, was once again filled with kindness and hope. His cloudy eyes were full of kindness and hope. He who had lost everything once again had a home and family.

As night falls, the sound of singing and dancing can be heard in the camp illuminated by fire, and everyone has a smile on their face. Many young men and women who have lost their families due to the flight have found a brand new family tonight, and they are in the center surrounded by everyone. , Erizia and Theros looked at everything in front of them with gentle smiles.

In the early morning, when the sun gradually rises in the sky and brings light to the earth, Erezia, which is under construction, becomes in full swing again. A large number of young people are cleaning up the ruins and transporting usable materials to the building under construction. place.

"Elite, come and see what I found."

At this time, a blond boy emerged from the ruins of a half-collapsed building, holding a dagger in his hand and laughing, with unconcealable excitement on his face. "Is this? A magic weapon?"

A young man named Elit stepped forward and looked at the dagger in his companion's hand. The silver-white blade was outlined with golden mysterious lines. He only needed to hold the handle lightly and the lines on the handle would light up and the entire dagger would become transparent. , disappeared from sight.

And the only ones that can do this are magic weapons.

"Hey, this is from a box I just found in the ruins."

"Shull, what are you going to do?"

Elit returned the dagger in his hand to his companion, and then looked at him curiously, his eyes full of envy. You must know that magic weapons can only be owned by powerful adventurers, magicians, and nobles. As a civilian, he had only heard of it.

"I plan to dedicate it to Lord Theros. I believe that with this, Lord Theros will definitely be able to hunt much more easily."

After saying that, Shure carefully put the dagger back into the sheath, waved goodbye to his companions and ran towards the camp. The other companions looked at Shure like this and smiled. If they had found this magic weapon, Weapons, although they can do the same, will never be able to part with them like Shure.

"By the way, there are magic weapons here. How did this city become ruins before?"

A few seconds later, a middle-aged man walked to the ruins where Shure found the magic weapon and said with a sigh. Then he raised his head and looked into the distance and saw a large number of ruins. Judging from the remaining buildings in the ruins, I know that the city here used to be very prosperous.

"I heard that it was due to the attack of monsters that everyone in the entire city died and even the city was turned into ruins."

On the side, Elit raised his head and said casually, and then continued to clean up the ruins. He also knew a little bit about the past of this city from the exchanges between soldiers, but Elit didn't care about it at all, anyway. They are protected by two adults, Theros and Irizia.

Coupled with those powerful soldiers, their city will never be destroyed by monsters.

"So it is."

After hearing Elit's explanation, the middle-aged man nodded and stopped paying attention. Instead, he started cleaning up the ruins harder, hoping to see if he could be lucky enough to find a magic weapon.

Just when this city built on ruins was in full swing, on the road not far from here, a figure was moving forward silently, wearing a pair of black leather shoes on its tall, slender legs, and a black battle skirt. The figure is outlined.

The delicate face was filled with an indifferent expression, and the long black hair kept flying in the strong wind, like a black flame about to burn everything.
