1887 'Faith' (ask monthly pass)
Mountainous area.
As the name suggests, this is an area with only mountains.
It is different from the land that is eroded by fire and burned by the moon, leaving only the holy land area of the city of the Holy Capital, and is different from the desert area where yellow sand and sandstorms are everywhere all year round. There are really only continuous veins formed by mountains, making the hills and peaks stand and sit, looking quite majestic.
However, the environment here is not superior at all compared to the holy land area and desert areas.
Because there are food shortages here all year round.
The soil is not suitable for cultivation, and the vegetation is unique. The terrain is undulating and bumpy, and the wild beasts and even beasts in the mountains are rampant. Compared with the holy land areas and desert areas, the environment here is not good at all. At most, it is not as dangerous as these two. There are holy land knights, sanctions falling from the sky, as well as sandstorms and threats from monsters.
Compared with these, mountainous areas are really much safer.
Raised wild beasts and beasts in mountainous areas have given the mountain people a little chance to survive.
Only by hunting them can the people of the mountain survive.
Otherwise, all the people here would have starved to death.
Of course, this is just to be able to survive, and there is no question of food and clothing.
After all, the beasts and beasts of this era are no more modern than those of modern times.
Since it was only the thirteenth century, the mysterious subsidence was not too serious. Even ordinary beasts and beasts were quite scary in their ferociousness. From time to time, some monsters and fantasy species that remained in this era may appear. If ordinary humans faced each other, they would definitely be alive.
If it is in a place where humans often live, that would be fine, but the deep mountains are originally the habitat of these monsters that avoid humans. In addition, this era has become a special point, and the distortion is quite serious. The difficulty of surviving such mountains is completely conceivable.
Therefore, the food that the mountain people can obtain every day is quite limited, and sometimes they even need to live by relying on some water and salt for several days. The harsh living environment is no wonder that so many refugees are discouraged and eventually choose to go to the Sanctuary to seek shelter and live a peaceful and prosperous life there.
In this era, in today's Middle East, the only one who can make people live carefree is the Saint Capital.
Gao Wen is right, the Holy Capital is already the only thousand-year-old royal city and ideal place in this era, and there is no doubt about this.
Unfortunately, the conditions for becoming a resident of the Holy Capital are too harsh.
Among the thousands of refugees, there were only two or three who could meet the conditions for Saint Ba. Even there was one in the round table, Mordred had no right to residency. It is conceivable how difficult it would be to enter the Saint Capital.
Now, under the leadership of Artoria, Luo Zhen and Mashu followed the large army of mountain people and refugees to enter the mountainous areas, and finally arrived at the territory of mountain people.
However, as soon as they arrived at the territory of the mountain people, everyone was silent one after another.
Especially Luo Zhen and Mashu, and everyone in Chaldes.
"Is this the territory of the people of the mountain?"
Roman made such a speechless voice.
There is no reason.
I saw that in front of everyone, in the back of the mountains, buildings were located sparsely.
They were stone houses, mud houses and even thatched houses.
The stone houses, mud houses and thatched houses are not only sparse, but also look quite dilapidated. There are mountain people who are moving back and forth, but they are all thin and hungry. Although they are all doing their own work, some are repairing dilapidated houses, some are paving uneven roads, and some are carefully riding water with bowls, holding them like they are treating some precious treasures, so that even a drop of water in the bowl will not spill out. Some even mix some grass in wild vegetables. You can tell at a glance that it is to mix together and make it satisfy your hunger.
How can such a scene be silent?
If that's all, it's fine.
Let’s not mention others, neither Luo Zhen nor Maxiu have seen scenes that are more cruel than this.
Looking back at the time when the fifth special point, the residents on the North American continent almost died under the threat of the Celtic Legion. They could only stay in the basin and live in a slack life, but they didn't even have a single bit of food, didn't even drink a drop of water, and even had to rely on some broken tents to settle down. Some even lay down in the open air. If Karna hadn't protected them, they would have all died long ago.
At that time, all the people were just waiting to die, with only their despair for the future and their acceptance of the status quo. They all looked as despair as walking corpses.
Compared with them, the mountain people here are already considered good.
However, even though it was such harsh conditions, the people of the mountain not only did not complain at all, but also lived with smiles one by one, as if they had not given up hope. Even if the conditions were difficult, they were sincerely grateful for their ability to continue to live, and gathered in the central square to pray, extremely pious.
This scene is just something that shocked everyone's hearts.
Artoria spoke.
"This place is located on the back of the mountain, cleverly hiding the location and vision. If we don't come directly like us, we will not be able to see this village at all. The other villages distributed in the mountainous areas are also like this. Only in this way can we avoid the killing of wild beasts and even the holy knights who have always regarded the mountain people as threats. But as you see, it is just a state of barely survival. Food is often lacking, and even water has to be saved. The houses we live in are left by the mountain people in the past. Most of them are dilapidated. Later, many refugees were accepted and they could only build them one by one again, which was very simple."
As he said that, Artoria [alter] looked at everyone.
"Even so, the humans here have not given up hope, because they still have faith and have always believed that God's favor will fall on them sooner or later, and now it is just the darkness before dawn. If you persist, they will sooner or later usher in light."
This is the biggest difference between humans who have always lived in the area where the holy land is located and others.
"So, even if refugees always come, the mountain people will accept them with a smile."
"Even if they know that there is one more person, the less food they are distributed here, they will still feel satisfied and even be happy to have one more partner."
"They think this is the gift of the Lord, and every extra person survives, it proves that the Lord is protecting His children and allowing more devoted believers to survive in this cruel era."
"They hope that one day they will return to the Holy Land and welcome back to the Holy Capital, just because it is where their faith is."
Artoria's voice sounded slowly.
"Under such circumstances, the Lion King ravaged the earth with the power of the holy gun, and also established a brand new holy capital called Camelo on the holy capital. It trampled on this faith, trampled on the self-esteem of believers and even the lives of their lives. Do you think it is possible for the people of the mountain to live in harmony with the knights of the Holy Land?"
One sentence made everyone silent.
