Chapter 379

"Thanks."

Saying thanks in a hurry, Gepard jumped in.

And at this time, Bronya, who was shopping with Seele.

Was shocked by the miserable state of the Underworld.

Several miners, who seemed to be injured and pale, gathered at a doorway.

Sighing.

"What are they doing?"

"That is the former residence of Natasha's brother, Doctor 'Vah'."

Vah?

Hearing many people shouting the name 'Vah'.

"He must be a good person, right?"

Bronya smiled.

A good person?

"Perhaps, for 'ordinary people', Vah is indeed a 'good person'."

"Natasha's treatment takes a long time, conversely Doctor Vah's medicine works fast, as long as you bear 'a little' risk."

Seele shook her head.

"Risk?"

Duck Duck didn't understand.

"A little risk means death!"

"Ah?"

"Why, why don't they wait until their injuries heal?"

Bronya was shocked, covering her small mouth in confusion.

"Heh, heal?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Doctor Vah is the 'doctor for the poor', he always distributes free medicine to the poor."

"And Natasha?"

"In the eyes of the poor, she is just a 'useless person who wants to save everyone'."

"Miners like them can't afford any 'long treatment'. If they can't return to work and earn money after taking medicine, it's not much different from waiting to die."

"And Natasha's medicine is all scavenged, extremely scarce, and naturally quite expensive."

"And the curative effect is slow."

"So!"

"Whether for themselves, for their wives, or for their children, they have to gamble on this 'risk'."

Seele sneered.

She had been taken into Wildfire by Oleg since she was small, which was why she could enjoy Wildfire's treatment.

Otherwise?

Maybe she would be like those poor people, using Vah's medicine.

Or maybe, she would have kicked the bucket long ago?

Bronya's brain went 【buzz】, covering her small mouth tightly.

She never imagined that people in the Underworld lived so hard.

"Hmph!"

"Are you wondering why they do this?"

"Hmph, that's because a young lady like you from the upper level, bright and beautiful, has never experienced such poverty."

"People forced to that point by life will not let go of any opportunity in front of them."

"Even if they have to gamble their lives."

"For those injured miners, slow and painful treatment is no different from a death sentence."

"Instead of persuading them to suffer Natasha's torture, it's better to have a quick and decisive one."

Seele snorted coldly.

She probably guessed Lu Shu's meaning.

So, she cut Bronya's heart hard.

As deep as she could cut!

Let her remember this pain.

Although Lu Shu brought a lot of medicine this time, most of it was for colds, trauma, and chilblains.

Natasha had tested it, except for the one brought by Nami, which was fast-acting.

The ones from Makima, Miku, and Mieko's side all needed at least five times the dose to see some effect.

Medicine was still scarce.

And these injuries were internal.

The kind where cold evil and cold air enter the lungs.

Bronya didn't know what kind of mindset she was in.

Along the way, she saw many more sufferings in Boulder Town.

Many, many orphans.

Fighters wearing monster armor, fighting desperately to earn money.

The people of Boulder Town who were short of supplies.

"Let's go back, their meeting should have results by now."

"Hmm."

"Seele, believe me!"

"I will definitely make life in the Underworld better."

Bronya promised solemnly.

"Wait until you do it before saying that."

The plan to counterattack 'Everwinter Hill' had been set.

Oleg and Luka had gone to mobilize.

Only Wildfire members who had stepped on the power of the "Path" could join the team to attack Everwinter Hill.

"Old witch!"

"You are going to fight that bad guy called 'Stellaron', right?"

"I want to go too."

Just as everyone walked out, they saw that big shot in the Underworld again.

The pitch-black Hook.

And her right-hand man, 'Thousand-Face' Julian.

And Alina.

"Old... old witch? Little friend, that's very impolite, you know? Also, what is your name?"

After all, Hook was shouting at a bunch of them, and they didn't know who she was shouting at?

March 7th liked cute little children.

She was teasing her just now.

It's a pity, before she could ask, she was interrupted by Bronya.

"Bold!"

"You pink-haired one, how dare you call 'Boss Hook' a little child."

Julian put his hands on his hips and scolded sternly.

"Rude big guy, you are really impolite, you should call Hook 'Pitch-Black Hook'."

Beside her, Alina also had an angry little face.
