The Doctor In the Steampunk World

Chapter 768: Heartbreaking casualties

Chapter 768

A semi-circular line of fire appeared in the middle of the outer city, dividing the outer city.

This is the previous arrangement of the nine innings. If there is a crisis situation, the outer city will be divided by arson to block the snow demon.

There are several similar line of fire defenses, all of which are located in the outer city close to the inner city. These line of fire defenses are actually to prevent the snow monsters from invading the inner city.

A battle steam car drove out of the line of fire defense and began to hunt Xuenu.

However, this kind of line of fire defense can at most prevent some low-level snow slaves under this extreme cold wind and snow, and those high-level snow slaves or knight snow slaves can't be protected at all.

However, in the chaos in the outer city, no high-level snow monsters intervened, and at most a few snow monsters were in charge of the command, so they were also doing things in the outer city.

Until dawn, most of the snow slaves who attacked the outer city were hunted and killed, and the fighting subsided.

Simon didn't know the situation in the outer city last night until he woke up at noon.

Simon went to Stellan, but was stopped by the knight outside the door, telling him that Stellan was resting in the office at this time. Last night, he was busy with hosting work in the outer city all night, and he just lay down for less than four hours.

Simon didn't bother Stellan either. He found a knight who knew the situation of the battle last night to understand the situation.

Although no high-level snow demons intervened last night, the casualties were very large. In addition to the large number of casualties among the knights and military police in the nine rounds, the casualties in the outer city were even more serious.

According to incomplete statistics, at least six or seven thousand people died in outer urban areas last night.

Of course, most of them were not killed by Xuenu, but were frozen to death by the extremely cold weather.

When Simon heard this number, his heart trembled, and his expression was extremely heavy. Six or seven thousand people, what kind of concept is this, accounting for almost one-tenth of the population in the outer city.

One tenth of the ordinary residents of the outer city died overnight.

Simon took out the disintegrating sword without stopping and set off for the outer city, but this time he brought the old cat with him.

He should have brought the old cat with him yesterday. With the cooperation of the old cat, yesterday's battle would never have been so tragic.

Heavy troops were deployed at the gate of the inner city to guard against it, and Simon was able to enter and exit after showing the certificate of the nine innings.

The entire outer city was covered with ice and snow, and it was really icy and snowy. This should have been a spectacular snow scene.

But when he thought that there were six or seven thousand corpses buried under this spectacular snow scene, the spectacular snow scene at this time was no different from purgatory in his eyes.

He first went to his manor to take a look. A large number of residents on the street were braving the cold to clear the snow.

On the road, they encountered trucks filled with corpses. These are the corpses of residents in the outer city who died last night. At this time, they were transported to the steam tower in the inner city for destruction.

It shouldn't have done this originally, but there are too many dead residents, if it is too troublesome to deal with one by one, and Fossa City is also worried that the snow demon or the evil people in Fossa City will use these corpses to make trouble, so directly Burn all the corpses.

The more you go out, the more houses collapse, especially in the area close to the Xiacheng District, where the quality of the construction itself is poor. In addition to the heavy snow last night, there are more collapsed houses. I don’t know how many people there are. homeless.

Looking at the tragic images on both sides of the street, Simon's heart became heavier.

The steam car drove into the gate of the manor. At the gate of the manor, he saw a group of people huddled in the corner. Simon looked over and saw a familiar face in the crowd.

It was Faro and the others. He was still worried about their safety, but he didn't expect them to find their manor.

As for why they didn't go in, it must be the punk housekeeper who didn't know Faro's relationship with him.

Simon got out of the carriage, and in fact, when the carriage came to the gate of the manor, it caught the attention of Faro and the others.

After Simon came out, Faro and the others were immediately excited. Little Faro ran over to the crowd, and one fell to the ground without paying attention. He just knelt on the ground and saluted Simon.

"Mr. Big."

Others followed suit and knelt down in a large area.

"Faro, you'll be fine."

"Mr. Big, last night Baolai, Xiaobai and the others died." Little Faru cried immediately, and the children who followed him also cried bitterly.

The few people mentioned by Little Faru were the first little kids who followed him, and the relationship between them was the deepest.

Simon sighed.

Before he could speak, Little Faru hurriedly shouted at the back. An adult came over with a little girl in his arms, and Little Faru hurriedly said, "Mr. Big, save Mia."

Simon hurriedly got out of the car and walked over, touching her forehead, which was hot.

It's a fever, and it's burning badly.

Simon hurriedly injected her life magic energy to stabilize her condition.

"Come in with me." He hugged the little girl and got into the carriage. The gate of the manor was already open.

Simon said to his maid, "Take them to the villa."

"Yes, sir."

In the manor, the punk housekeeper was cleaning up the snow with his servants. After the carriage arrived at the villa first, Simon carried the little girl and went straight to the hall, and the punk housekeeper hurried over.

"A group of people are rushing over, and immediately prepare hot water and anti-cold medicine." Simon said quickly.

"Understood." The punk housekeeper nodded quickly. After Simon entered the hall, there was a beautiful woman drinking afternoon tea leisurely on the sofa.

She is the Scarlet Witch wearing the Pampers mask~lightnovelpub.net~ She saw the little girl Simon was holding and asked curiously, "Who is this little girl."

"A friend you know." Simon put the little girl next to the fireplace to relieve her cold, and then injected her life magic energy.

The life magic energy is almost a panacea, and it can help the little girl to reduce the fever. Simon was relieved when he found that it had indeed retreated a little.

Let the maid take some fever-reducing medicines to assist in the treatment.

"Did anything happen to the manor last night?" Simon asked the Scarlet Witch.

"No." Scarlet Witch shrugged.

"It's alright."

"But the outer city was not as lively last night. What happened?" asked the Scarlet Witch.

"Yesterday, the ninth round killed a powerful snow slave in the snow demon clan. Last night should be the revenge action against the snow demon."

"You killed it?"

"I can't kill it alone."

"Can't even kill you?" The Scarlet Witch widened her eyes. She knew better than the average person how powerful Simon was. She became curious about people who even Simon couldn't kill.

"An old monster from the last century, who claims to be the strongest in the Snow Demon Clan after the Snow Demon King. It's terrifying. I almost got killed by him." Simon said helplessly.

"Second only to the Snow Demon King, what kind of powerhouse has you killed?"

"No matter how strong you are, you can still be one hundred percent." Simon snorted coldly.

At this time, there were a lot of footsteps outside, and the two immediately ended their conversation. It was Little Faro who came.

However, Little Faro did not enter the hall, they were afraid of dirtying the hall.
