1887 "Faith"

mountainous area.

As the name suggests, this is an area with only mountains.

It is different from the holy land that has been eroded and burned by the fire, leaving the moon-like land with only the holy capital and a city, and it is different from the desert area that is full of yellow sand and shrouded in sandstorms all year round. There are only continuous veins formed by the mountains, which make the hills and peaks stand and sit, looking quite majestic.

It's just that the environment here is not superior at all compared to the holy land domain and the desert area.

Because there is a shortage of food here all the year round.

The soil is not suitable for farming, and the vegetation is unique. The terrain is undulating and bumpy, and the wild beasts and even wild beasts in the mountains are rampant. Compared with the Holy Land and the desert, the environment here is not good at all. At most, it is not as good as the two. Dangerous, there are holy land knights raging, there are sanctions from the sky, and there are threats of sandstorms and monsters.

Compared with these, mountain areas are really much safer.

Rather, the rampant wild beasts and ferocious beasts in the mountain area gave the people of the mountain a chance to survive.

By hunting them, the Mountain People barely survive.

Otherwise, the people here would have starved to death long ago.

Of course, this is only enough to make people barely survive, not even food and clothing.

After all, the beasts and ferocious beasts of this era are nothing compared to modern times.

Since it was only the thirteenth century, the disappearance of the mystery was not too serious. Even ordinary wild beasts and ferocious beasts were quite scary, and even some monsters and fantasy species that remained in this era may appear from time to time. Ordinary human beings will definitely die if they meet each other.

If it is in an area where humans often live, then that’s fine, but the deep mountains are originally the habitats of these monsters that avoid humans, and this era has become a singularity, and the distortion is quite serious. The difficulty of surviving in the mountains is completely conceivable.

Therefore, the daily food available to the mountain people is quite limited, and sometimes they even need to live on some water and extracted salt for several days in a row. It is no wonder that so many refugees are discouraged by the harsh living environment. In the end, he chose to go to the holy capital to seek asylum, where he lived and worked in peace and contentment.

In this era, in today's Middle East, the only place where people can live carefreely is the holy capital.

Gao Wen was right, the holy capital is already the only thousand-year-old royal city and ideal place in this era, there is no doubt about it.

Unfortunately, the conditions for becoming a resident of the Holy Capital are too harsh.

Among the thousands of refugees, only two or three people can meet the conditions of the holy city. There is even a Mordred in the round table who does not have the right of residence. It is conceivable how difficult it is to enter the holy capital.

And now, under the leadership of Artoria (Alter), Rozen and Matthew entered the mountain area with the large army of mountain people and refugees, and finally arrived at the territory of the mountain people.

However, as soon as they arrived at the territory of the people of the mountain, everyone fell silent one after another.

Especially Luo Zhen and Matthew, and everyone in Chaldea.

"This... is this the territory of the people of the mountain?"

Roman made such a speechless voice.

There is no other reason.

I saw that in front of everyone's eyes, in the mountains and behind the mountains, buildings were scattered one after another.

It was a series of stone huts, mud huts and even thatched huts.

The stone huts, mud huts, and thatched huts are not only sparse, but also look quite dilapidated. There are people from the mountains moving back and forth, but they are all thin and yellow, although they are all doing their own things. However, some are repairing dilapidated houses, some are paving uneven roads, and some are carefully holding water in a bowl, holding it like a precious treasure, not letting even a drop in the bowl The water spilled out, and some mixed some green grass in the wild vegetables,

You can tell at a glance that they are going to be mixed together for cooking to satisfy your hunger.

How can such a scene not make people dumb?

If only this is the case.

Leaving aside others, it's not that Luo Zhen and Matthew have never seen a crueler scene than this.

Back then, at the Fifth Singularity, on the North American continent, the residents there were almost extinct under the threat of the Celtic Legion, and they could only nest in the basin, surviving without even a single bit of food. They didn't even have a drop of water to drink, and they could only rely on some dilapidated tents for shelter, and some of them lay directly in the open air. If Karna hadn't been protecting them, they might have all died. dead.

At that time, people were all just waiting to die, with only despair for the future and resignation to the status quo in their eyes, all of them looked ashen, like walking corpses.

Compared with them, the people of the mountains here are considered good.

However, despite such harsh conditions, the people of the mountain not only did not complain at all, but also lived with smiles, as if they had not given up hope. No matter how difficult the conditions were, they all sincerely wanted to continue their lives. Live and be grateful, and gather in the central square to pray, very devout.

This scene was the one that directly shocked everyone's hearts.

Arturia (Alter) spoke.

"It's located on the back of the mountain. It cleverly hides the location and view. If you don't come close like us, you can't see this village at all. The rest of the villages in the mountain area are also like this. Only in this way can you avoid wild beasts. Even the slaughter of the holy land knights who have always regarded the people of the mountain as a threat, but as you can see, they are just barely surviving. Food is often lacking, and even water has to be used sparingly. The houses they live in are former mountain Most of the people left behind by the people are very dilapidated, and after accepting many refugees, they can only be rebuilt one by one, which is very simple."

Saying that, Arturia (Alter) looked at everyone.

"Even so, the human beings here still haven't given up hope, because they still have faith and have always believed that God's favor will fall on them sooner or later. Now it's just the darkness before dawn. If you persevere, they will usher in sooner or later." bright."

This is the biggest difference between humans who have always lived in the area where the Holy Land is located.

"So, even if there are always refugees coming, the people of the mountain will accept them with a smile."

"Even if they know that there is one more person, the food here will be less, they will still feel satisfied, and even happy to have one more partner."

"They think it's a gift from the Lord. Every extra person who survives proves that the Lord is protecting his children, allowing more pious believers to survive in this cruel era."

"They always hope that one day they can return to the Holy Land and welcome back to the Holy Capital, just because that is where their faith lies."

Arturia (Alter)'s voice resounded slowly.

"Under such circumstances, the Lion King ravaged the earth with the power of the holy spear, and built a brand new holy city called Camelot on top of the holy city. Trampling on this belief, trampling on the self-esteem and even the lives of believers, you Do you think it is possible for the people of the mountain and the Knights of the Holy Land to live in harmony?"

In one sentence, everyone was silent.
