Is this noble young man in front of me, who is highly regarded on the forum and even called His Highness by some fanatical people, any different from those people?
If the reviews are genuine, that's fine, but what if they're fake reviews created by paid trolls?
If he were like those despicable noble offspring, with that kind of attitude, we would definitely be severely punished by him, and might even be whipped!
Ahhh, he's stopped laughing and talking. He must be thinking about what kind of torture device to use to punish them!
Truth, trembling with fear as she clutched the book, cautiously opened her mouth, just as she was about to remind Winter of something, when Natalia, also known as Early Dew, gracefully stepped out of their ranks.
Her tall figure appeared heroic in Truth's eyes at that moment.
Winter asked, puzzled, "What are you doing?"
Truth quickly grabbed her and explained their current predicament to her.
...
Bai Yue watched as Zao Lu walked towards her, and for a moment she was a little confused. What did this young lady want to do?
Early Dew stopped a few meters in front of Bai Yue, making sure she didn't look down on this 'honorable Earl,' and calmly performed an impeccable ladylike gesture:
"Good day, Your Excellency. I am Natalia, the eldest daughter of the Rostov family. I apologize for my companion's offense. But please believe me, she did not mean it."
"Having experienced the turmoil of Period J, we students are bound to be somewhat...overreacting. She did not intend to offend your dignity."
Bai Yue looked at her with amusement, savoring the almost nauseating tone in her voice, and then deliberately said:
"Do you hate me that much?"
Natalia widened her eyes slightly, then said firmly, "Absolutely not!" Heaven knows, how could she dare!
Bai Yue stroked her chin and said, "So you hate yourself, um... no, to be precise, you hate this pretentious thing you do. Can you tell me why?"
"Do you really hate the feeling of being a nobleman in the past?"
Natalia paused for a moment, and after realizing that he wasn't being malicious but just curious, she nodded slightly: "When I came to my senses, I felt like I had just had a nightmare."
Bai Yue nodded knowingly: "It seems you've been through a lot." Then she chuckled: "There's a sanatorium in the middle of Area A of Rhodes Island that I own. Go visit sometime; it should make you feel better."
"Thank you for your kindness." Natalia's manners remained impeccable.
Bai Yue felt bored and waved her hand: "Go back... Oh, by the way, why aren't you guys staying put on Rhodes Island? What are you doing here?"
Natalia's lips moved slightly, as if she was about to say something, but Winter rushed over and shielded her behind her, saying warily, "It was wrong of me to offend you, but don't take it out on my companions either; they are innocent."
Bai Yue was a little tired. This idiot! The conversation was almost over when he finally came up, just standing there teleporting away. She said calmly, "..."
“I don’t have a habit of taking my anger out on others. I just want to ask, what exactly are you doing in my city? There are construction sites everywhere, and there will be several blasting projects in a few days. Be careful not to get hurt.”
"Ah, oh." Winter was taken aback when she saw his attitude was different from what she had expected, then came to her senses and answered the question somewhat embarrassedly:
"We didn't do anything, we just wanted to ask if there was anything we could do. We're not injured, we have hands and feet, we can't just stay on Rhodes Island and eat and drink for free."
"Oh?" Bai Yue laughed. So eager to work, huh? Fine, I'll grant your wish! She then smiled and said:
"The work here is all planned out, and we won't add people on the spot. But I do have a good place where the workload isn't too heavy and it won't get dirty. Would you like to go?"
Natalia's expression changed.
But Winter wasn't in the mood for it and readily agreed:
"Go, why not go!"
...
Bai Yue led them to a section of road that was under repair.
Here, many Rhodes Island operators operated engineering machinery to load gravel and vehicle wreckage from the road onto engineering vehicles, leaving behind some potholes, but overall making the road much cleaner.
Collapsed buildings line both sides of the road.
The marks from artillery shells were very obvious.
The armored, blond Kuranka knight was prying up the building debris with her bare hands, while the white-horned Sarkaz physician beside her was preparing body bags. A Sarkaz girl in a wheelchair, as pure and innocent as a princess, held a staff that emitted a faint light, illuminating the interior of the building.
Soon, Nearl cleared out a corner of the ruins, revealing dried bloodstains and a gruesome corpse crushed and deformed by the dumped rubble.
But her target was not the already rotting and smelly corpse.
Her main target was the barely perceptible breathing sounds amidst the ruins.
Following the trajectory of the nightingale's spell, she lifted several more rubble stones, revealing more corpses and finally finding a hardwood wardrobe that remained intact in the ruins.
At this moment, Bai Yue arrived at this section of the road.
His sensitive sense of smell allowed him to immediately detect the stench. He instinctively covered his mouth and nose, using his dream power to block out the unpleasant odor, and then turned his gaze to the three members of the Apostle Squad.
"Liz?"
Bai Yue frowned slightly, quickly walked to Nightingale's wheelchair, and said softly, "Liz, didn't I tell you not to continue using Originium Arts? Before the treatment is complete, your body can hardly withstand the burden of the spells!"
"Ah, Dr. Bai!"
The Nightingale, sitting in her wheelchair, was startled, like a child caught doing something wrong. Her face showed a look of helplessness, and she explained in a soft voice, "But there are still people living here, but they are about to die. Only I can save them."
Shining, who was packing up the corpse, turned around, and her gaze softened when she saw Bai Yue. Although they hadn't known each other for long, his superb Originium Arts skills had left a deep impression on her.
He was the one who treated Nightingale last time; the miraculous rainbow light was able to get Nightingale out of her wheelchair.
Though brief, it is still a glimmer of hope.
Moreover, the promise he made, the promise that almost claimed to give the Sarkaz a place to belong... Ah, how much like her! At that moment, the radiant light emanating from him was almost equal to that of the person he had once followed.
But her light went out.
But his brilliance shone through.
This time, she wanted to continue protecting that light, even at the cost of her life, as long as this hard-won rekindled hope could continue...
bump!
Nearl smashed the wardrobe, which even the collapse of the building couldn't damage, with a single punch, and quickly pulled an Ursus girl out of it. She was barely breathing, and her chest barely rose and fell.
She turned her head and saw Bai Yue standing next to Nightingale. Overjoyed, she shouted, "Dr. Bai, that's wonderful! Please save this child!"
As she called out, she nimbly carried her out of the ruins and gently placed her on the ground.
"Hmm." Bai Yue didn't seem bothered by the strange smell emanating from the girl. After a quick examination, he placed his hand on her neck to check her pulse. He quickly said:
"There are no external injuries, but the long-term lack of nutrition has brought her organs to the brink of failure. Go get the nutrient solution, I'll give it to her."
"Ok!"
Lin Guang nodded quickly and rushed towards the medical vehicle on the side.
The nutrient solution was quickly replenished for the girl, and Bai Yue used her dream power to help her digest the nutrients, preventing her near-death body from being overwhelmed by this sudden surprise.
...
Seeing that he had kept the girl's life hanging by a thread, Lin Guang breathed a sigh of relief. Without lingering, he went straight to Shining and helped her collect the body.
Seeing that they were completely ignoring them, Winter felt a little annoyed.
Without saying a word, she walked straight towards Nearl and Shining, preparing to help them collect the corpses into body bags. The Ursus girls behind her followed in her footsteps.
When Lin Guang saw them come up, she didn't try to stop them. Instead, she asked Lin Dong indifferently, "Why did you bring them here? Have they finished their scheduled lessons?"
"Tsk."
Winter lifted the half-dead corpse with force, showing no discomfort whatsoever, and said, "No, I didn't want to go up. I just wanted to come here and find something to do. What, do you have a problem with that?"
"Problem girl..." Nearl sighed inwardly, but said calmly, "..."
"You're still just students, you can't be of much help. You'd be better off going back and learning more, then you'll be more efficient later."
Winter silently placed the corpse into a body bag and continued doing his work in silence.
Seeing this, Lin Guang stopped arguing with her, handed over the work to her, and then went to the side to lift up the building debris to search for any possible corpses underneath.
Before long, with the help of her companions, Winter, relying on Ursus's strong physique, finished these tasks. Then, slightly out of breath, she prepared to walk up to Nearl and help her remove the building debris.
She's quite competitive... Lin Guang observed her silently, then reached out to stop her: "Alright, these aren't things you should be doing. You could get hurt or even disabled if you're not careful."
Ignoring all advice, Winter silently walked to the ruins and tried to lift the boulder.
but...
Her face turned bright red, but she still couldn't move it. Helpless, she had no choice but to give up and awkwardly walked over to Lin Guang: "Can you tell me how you did it?"
"Eat well, train well, and read well."
Lin Guang lifted the last stone, found it 'clean' underneath, nodded, and then turned to look at Lin Dong: "Doing this is enough for you now."
"not enough!"
Winter was excited, waving her hands: "How can I just watch others rebuild our homes? That's not fair! The Chernobog people should do it themselves!"
"Whose home is Chernobog?" Nearl asked rhetorically.
"Huh?" Winter looked confused, patted his chest, and said confidently, "Of course it's us!"
Lin Guang shook his head slightly: "I'm sorry, I would also like to agree with you, but in Ursus, Chernobog probably doesn't belong to you, nor to any commoner."
Winter froze, her face contorted with obvious anger: "*Ursus profanity*, does that mean those noble lords who abandon their cities and flee at the first sign of disaster?!"
Truth's eyes darkened; based on what she knew, it was indeed true. It was just that it used to belong to a group of nobles, but now... She turned her gaze to Bai Yue, who was still treating the girl.
It now belongs only to this Earl.
Natalia gritted her teeth, hugged her arms, and almost cowered, overwhelmed by a strong sense of guilt, because she had once been one of these exploiters.
But Lin Guang nodded honestly: "I'm afraid so. Under the current Ursus system, apart from those cities directly under the emperor's control, all other cities, including Chernobog, are the land of nobles."
"That's the truth, and that's the legal principle."
"And if I may be so bold, the old Chernobog is destroyed. Now it has a new master, and until he acknowledges you, this is no longer your home."
"..."
"Why?"
Winter's lips trembled with anger as she turned to look at Bai Yue, who had already received first aid. Her eyes blazed with fury: "Just because he is now the Earl of Chernobog, does that give us the right to strip us of our former identities?"
Bai Yue felt a bit numb when the fire reached her, and glared resentfully at Lin Guang. "Why are you saying all this to this hot-blooded girl? You're just asking for trouble!"
Lin Guang turned his head away guiltily, even wanting to whistle.
She did it on purpose.
Ursus and Kazimierz have fought ten wars, with the Nearl family always on the front lines resisting the Ursus army. While they may not be considered blood enemies, they are certainly irreconcilable sworn enemies.
I certainly can't miss the chance to mess with Ursus.
Besides, this isn't slander; Ursus is just like that, she's just stating the facts. The Radiant Knight of Kazimir didn't lie!
Bai Yue first used her dreamlike power to remove the slight dirt from her hands, then nodded slowly:
"Lingguang is not wrong. As it stands, there are other people besides me whom I respect."
“I cannot lump all the other people standing on this land into the concept of Chernobog people. Even former Chernobog citizens will not be accepted by the city if they do not contribute now and want to gain without working.”
Winter's eyes lit up: "So, as long as we do things, we'll still be Chernobog people?"
"of course."
Bai Yue smiled and said, "As long as someone is willing to contribute to this city, I will not hesitate to accept the status of a citizen."
"Alright, we've finished here. I'll take you to your workplace. As long as you do a good job, consider it your contribution to this city."
"go!"
"Ningguang, you guys come too. Perfect timing. There's something for you to do over there. They've built a new greenhouse over there. I'll come and treat Liz so she can rest for a while."
"Ah."
Chapter 130 Ursus Student Renovation Team
The core city of West City, formerly an aristocratic community, is now the Earl of Chernobog's mansion.
The tall walls were torn down, leaving only charred remains in the woodland area. The once elaborate and magnificent buildings collapsed, leaving only ruins and a scene of apocalypse.
Through the magnificent gate adorned with everlasting flowers, this is the same scene that winter sees.
Then she looked at the empty, black, scorched earth next to the gate, which was completely devoid of any fence or wall. Even with her fiery temper, she couldn't help but feel the urge to complain.
Looking at Bai Yue, who was walking at the front, she couldn't help but complain, "Hey, this place is already so dilapidated, why are you still putting up a broken door here?"
