"No way!" Wan'er said fearfully, realizing that the two of them could be taken away at any time, based on Junjue's words.
"Wan'er, it's alright. This way we won't have to rack our brains trying to find a way out."
"As long as they lead us out, I can make sure they die in their graves," the Duke said gently.
"Okay! Then let's wait patiently for the right time to take them all down." Thinking of her boyfriend's powerful abilities, her fear slowly disappeared.
Seeing that the two girls were so badly injured, they might get infected if they didn't take some anti-inflammatory medicine.
He whispered, "Lord, those two girls are injured. If they don't take medicine, it might take them a long time to recover under these difficult conditions."
Seeing that his girlfriend was still so kind-hearted, what could he do? With so many resources in his virtual space, he could only spoil her rotten!
I need to keep a close eye on this kind-hearted girlfriend to prevent her from being taken advantage of by some people.
"Okay! I'll get the anti-inflammatory medicine out."
He understood that the two girls were not only covered in injuries, but if the beasts who treated them were particularly cruel, even their private parts would have been badly injured.
After all, he had experienced hundreds of years in the apocalypse in his previous life, and he understood many things even though he hadn't done them himself. He quickly took out two anti-inflammatory pills and gave them to Wan'er, asking her to feed them to the two girls.
Wan'er held the medicine in her hand, her eyes filled with anger and endless sorrow.
She could not tolerate such cruel treatment, especially towards those innocent girls.
People around were already used to this scene. Every few days, one or two girls would be kidnapped and brought back covered in blood.
The environment is so harsh that wounds are difficult to heal, and without proper medical care and medication, their wounds will only worsen.
They could only whisper among themselves, "Sigh! Two more girls have been murdered. They're so pitiful."
"Judging from the extent of their injuries this time, they're even worse than the two last time. They must have suffered a lot!"
"How did the world become like this? When will it return to what it used to be? If it doesn't return to the way it was before, how will humanity live?"
"Yes! Order is collapsing everywhere, the ugliness of human nature is slowly emerging, and the evil in many people's hearts is no longer suppressed."
"Now that there are no laws, those evil people are even more unscrupulous and can do whatever they want."
...
She heard the murmurs of the crowd around her and turned to look at the calm and collected Duke beside her.
She felt that her boyfriend was frighteningly calm about everything! It was probably related to his family background!
Although he lived in a wealthy family, he had never encountered any darkness before, and he couldn't stay calm when faced with something like this for the first time.
She was filled with anger and helplessness. Wan'er knew that the world was cruel and indifferent, but she could not accept that innocent people were treated this way.
Ignoring the crowd's comments, Wan'er went over and fed medicine to the girl who was lying on the ground, barely alive.
Without hesitation, Junjue immediately followed with his two dogs. Suddenly, when he saw that the two girls' pants were still bleeding, his eyes widened in shock.
She said apologetically, "Wan'er, I'll go to the side first. You stay here and take care of them for a while!"
Shangguan Wan'er also witnessed the scene just now. The other person was wearing two white outfits, making it hard not to notice them. She said awkwardly:
"Hey, you should go right away!"
Seeing the Duke leave with his two dogs, and looking at the two weak and powerless girls on the ground, his eyes were red and swollen like walnuts.
Wan'er knelt down with a heavy heart and gently placed the anti-inflammatory medicine near the girl's lips.
The two girls were exhausted and had almost no strength left. Although swallowing the pills was difficult for them, they did not hesitate at all.
The pills tasted extremely bitter, but the two girls seemed completely unaffected.
Wan'er looked at the pills they had in their mouths, her heart filled with endless heartache and sorrow.
She knew that no matter how bitter the medicine was, it couldn't compare to the suffering they had endured.
"Thank you for the medicine." Ivy's voice was weak and trembling, but full of gratitude.
She knew that her injuries would take a very long time to heal without medicine. What would they do if those beasts came again with all their wounds?
Lina wanted to cry, but she had cried all her tears last night, and her eyes were terribly swollen. Her voice was hoarse and weak as she thanked them:
"Thanks!"
Wan'er burst into tears, feeling her anger and helplessness transform into a tremendous heartache.
Wan'er gripped the girls' hands tightly, her voice trembling as she said:
"We will help you, and we will never let you get hurt again, no matter what."
"You two get some rest, I won't bother you any longer," Wan'er said before leaving.
She knew that the two of them must be in a lot of pain from their injuries, so after they took the medicine, she told them to rest and recover quickly.
Junjue stood aside, silently watching Wan'er and the girls' conversation.
He knew that the world was not perfect, but he believed that as long as there were people who were unwilling to give up, there would be hope.
After the incident involving the two girls, one girl was taken away every day for the next few days, and she always returned covered in blood.
The more than one hundred people imprisoned in the hall were filled with fear, while the other girls who were not arrested hid in a corner and cried every day.
"How could this be? There have been so many arrests these past few days, yet there have been so many transactions lately?" an elderly man asked, puzzled.
"Alas! More than four months have passed since the various natural disasters, and food has been consumed in large quantities everywhere, and it is becoming increasingly scarce."
Those people, seeing the current food shortage, figured they'd trade resources for supplies regardless of the girls' lives, and would work hard to exchange them for provisions.
"I heard that because of the corrosive acid rain, the outside world is now barren, and all the plants are not yet able to regenerate."
Where would the food come from then?
Moreover, all the factories have shut down, and all the buildings are in ruins; there is simply no possibility of rebuilding in the short term.
"Oh! Those young girls are really suffering! They're dragged out to make deals every day."
"There's nothing we can do! We can't save them either. If we dare to lay a hand on them, we'll become corpses."
When Shangguan Wan'er saw the girl, covered in blood, being carried back again, a pang of heartache spread through her. She angrily asked:
"Those people are worse than animals. How could they be so cruel, trading young girls for supplies?"
Every day, young girls are being murdered. Are we just going to keep waiting?
Junjue didn't care about any of that. As long as his girl wasn't hurt, what did it matter to him whether other people lived or died?
