Chapter 271 - 270: Durandal Is Very Angry
Bad, extremely bad. Although the villagers found this safe stronghold, with the lack of water, food, and supplies, the situation would only get worse.
Every villager staying here had dull, lifeless eyes, just sitting in a corner with their knees hugged, not saying a word.
Besides those people, there were also those lying down due to weakness in the corner. Their physical condition was quite bad due to the Tatarasuna God and the lack of food.
The only pot used for cooking food in the stronghold had only a little water and grass; other than that, there was nothing edible.
"...Damn it!"
Durandal looked around with an ugly expression and asked, "Is there anyone here who can cook? Come out?"
Durandal, this new face, attracted the attention of some people. Judging from her clothes, she should not be a villager living nearby, but rather someone from Inazuma City.
What did she mean by asking if anyone could cook? What did she want to do?
"Don’t make me say it again. There’s no time for you to think about other things now. If you can, come out quickly!"
"Um... if it’s just cooking, I should be fine."
A woman, ignoring the advice of others, raised her hand and stood up, saying, "Excuse me, you... what do you need someone who can cook for?"
"Go find a few more helpers, find a spacious open area, and cook some porridge for them to eat."
Durandal took out a large pot from her storage space and also took out a bag of rice, handing it to the woman.
"You’ve been hungry for too long. You can’t eat too much at once. First, have some hot porridge to fill your stomach. We’ll discuss other issues once you’ve recovered."
The woman tremblingly took the items from Durandal’s hand. If it weren’t for someone helping her nearby, she probably wouldn’t have been able to lift them.
"You... these..."
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and get things done. Find a trustworthy man to guard nearby and prevent any fighting for food (scramble for food) situations. If such a situation occurs, I will throw him out of here and let him fend for himself."
From the moment she took out the items, Durandal saw the greed in the eyes of some people in the cave. They wanted to rush forward and snatch the food immediately, but they couldn’t because of the guards protecting nearby.
As for Durandal’s threat, they didn’t take it to heart. So what if they did that? What could a little girl like Durandal do to them?
"Yes, I understand."
The woman also understood that the current situation was very bad. She brought a few helpers and the guards responsible for protecting them to an open area in the stronghold to start cooking porridge.
While these people were cooking porridge, Durandal noticed Xiao Qing going to a woman’s side. Xiao Qing frantically called out to her, but the woman did not respond to her calls.
"Sis... Sister, Mama, Mama won’t..."
Tears were already welling up in Xiao Qing’s eyes. She guessed a certain possibility, but she didn’t want to admit it, unwilling to admit it, and could only place her hope in Durandal, this seemingly omnipotent sister.
Durandal silently walked to the woman, took her hand, and felt her physical condition.
"She’s too weak, and her mental state is also quite poor. Besides that, there are no other problems, no need to worry."
Actually, the problem was particularly severe. The power of the Tatarasuna God had corroded her organs, and her worry for Xiao Qing accelerated the corrosion. She was actually on her last breath.
Fortunately, Durandal’s life force injection saved her from her dying state. She took some water from her storage space and gave it to the woman to drink a little, and her condition improved greatly.
A doctor, this girl was actually a doctor!
The villagers, who were originally just watching, saw the woman gradually recover under Durandal’s care and immediately realized that Durandal also knew how to heal.
They couldn’t sit still now and immediately stepped forward, hoping Durandal would check on them or help their relatives.
Durandal ignored those who were shouting particularly fiercely and instead found a weak person nearby to check her physical condition.
Most of the villagers in the stronghold were only physically weak and affected by the aura of the Tatarasuna God. Other problems could be solved once they had some porridge.
