"But what should we do next?"
"We have to find a way to ask for help from the cities of the New Hebrew Empire!"
"Or, ask for help from the Holy Egyptian Alliance!"
As soon as Elisha said this, everyone looked at him with strange and fearful eyes.
It was as if the person in front of him was not a teenager, but some terrifying monster.
"What is he talking about?"
"Ask for help? If we leave here now, we might be killed immediately!"
A man suddenly raised his voice, then quickly lowered it.
Then, a woman in a headscarf beside the man spoke anxiously, "Ask the Holy Egyptian Alliance for help... Don't you know that the Holy Egyptian Alliance just defeated the Hebrew Empire?"
"You want to ask for help...from the enemy?"
The woman was even questioning Elisha.
Obviously, these civilians knew very little about the Holy Egyptian Alliance.
In their view, the Holy Egyptian League was an enemy of the Hebrews.
This was mainly because David had just taken over the city and had not yet officially started publicity and changed the impression of Holy Egypt in these people's minds.
But before he could do so, he was killed and his head chopped off.
Elisha, who had come into contact with the Holy Pharaoh, knew very well that as long as he could convey the news here, the Holy Pharaoh would certainly send his army to suppress it.
Of course, Elisha thought so, but what he didn't know was that many people here had a natural fear and hostility towards Holy Egypt.
"When the people from Holy Egypt come, they should be the same as those in the city, right?"
"For us, the situation hasn't changed at all, it's still just as bad."
"Perhaps, that Holy Pharaoh will also string our heads together..."
As the man spoke, his eyes began to glaze over.
The woman next to her sobbed suddenly and then punched him hard on the back.
She was obviously frightened and angry that the man had brought up those horrific images again.
The old man was silent for a while before he slowly spoke.
"Let's wait until daybreak. It's too dangerous to go out now."
"Furthermore, if you want to ask for help from the New Hebrew Empire, you must first go to the city and get the relevant items from City Lord David. Otherwise, no one will believe us."
"And those people are searching house to house, looking for those who have slipped through the net. It's extremely difficult to enter the city."
"As for the Holy Egyptian Alliance..."
Having said that, the old man swallowed nervously.
"If they come... they should occupy this city, right?"
"No one knows if they will do this, and it's really dangerous."
Elisha only frowned slightly when he heard what they said.
"Why do you say that?"
"His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh's army had already passed through Hebron. He only briefly occupied the city to ensure logistical supplies."
"After conquering Jerusalem, all the Holy Egyptian Alliance warriors in Hebron City withdrew!"
"They didn't kill any civilians in Hebron, and they even left plenty of food in the city!"
"If it weren't for His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, the city of Hebron would still be suffering from famine!"
People listened to Elisha's words in a daze, and stared at him as if he were a monster.
"You call him His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh?"
"Who are you?"
"You are a spy sent by Holy Egypt! Why do you always speak well of Holy Egypt?"
"What exactly are you trying to do? Holy Egypt is our enemy!"
"From now on, he is also an enemy of our New Hebrew Empire!"
"He killed our compatriots. How can you say that?"
"That's right! Get him out!"
"He was sent by Holy Egypt! Who knows what his intentions are!"
"He wants to kill us!"
"Kick him out!"
As soon as Elisha finished speaking, the voices of the people began to become a little noisy.
Although people lowered their voices, to Elisha, those words were more piercing than screams.
"What gives you the right to say that?"
"Could it be that what I said is wrong?"
"Isn't what I said true?"
But at this moment, people didn't care about Elisha's words at all. They just urged the old man to drive Elisha out quickly.
"Get out! Don't stay here!"
"You'll kill us sooner or later!"
"Get out! Holy Egypt's lackeys!"
When Elisha heard their words, he clenched his fists unconsciously.
He wanted to say something else, but the images of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh and David suddenly flashed through his mind.
So he just took a deep breath.
"Listen carefully!"
“I am Elisha, who came to Hebron with David, the Lord of the City!”
"I am the clerk of City Lord David!"
"I'm not some lackey of Holy Egypt! What I said is nothing but the truth!"
As soon as these words were spoken, many people immediately stopped making vulgar noises, and only a few people who didn't understand what was going on continued to curse.
However, the sudden silence also made them slowly shut up.
"Are you Elisha?"
"Are you the boy next to City Lord David?"
At this moment, someone slowly stood up in the corner.
He looked at Elisha and tears welled up in his eyes.
