The Beginning of the Avalanche-The Number of Infected Soars in Siergrag! / All You Think About Is Siergrag, Isn't It?

Doli floated in the air. "Girls, we will naturally take care of everything for you. Texas and Lappland were both born into noble families in Siracusa. Although they are not experts, they have the most basic musical knowledge. They may not be proficient in any instrument, but they are versatile."

Zaro nodded from the sky. "That's right, especially because there's one girl I watched grow up. Whether it's dancing or singing, she can be considered one of the best among most people."

Perhaps Lappland is the best dancer among them, Texas plays the violin... and as for Xiao Le... maybe she can play the drums?

In short, let's get used to it for a while first. We'll find out what it's like once we put it to the test.

Singer Aya asked her teammates for their opinions, and they all said they could accept it, since they were already there.

Although the girls I've never met have had somewhat strange pasts, as long as they love music, they can be artistic even without artistic talent.

Doli said, "Master Huang, is your dormitory room big enough? Eight people, and they're all girls. Once you put the instruments and clothes in, there probably won't be much room left for sleeping."

"Do you think I'd be so clueless? I'm already married, so the room I arranged for them is the second largest after mine, with a net area of over 100 square meters. Besides, after this adjustment period, they'll be performing in Utopia."

Let your people listen to some good music and inspire the social atmosphere.

Of course, this doesn't rule out the possibility that Master Huang also wants to hear it.

Huang Cao said, "By the way, you guys have been staying in Rhodes Island these past few days, right? After all, you're their manager. After the performance in Utopia, this newly formed band will be starting their Earth Tour."

The Great Emperor: "Alright, but... Zaro, Doli, among us beings, I interact with humans the most frequently, so I need to set a few rules for you."

The giant penguin cleared his throat and said, "You're used to living a carefree life outside, but once you enter human society, you have to abide by human rules, especially you, Zaro."

A question mark appeared above Zaro's head. "What's wrong with me now?"

The Great Emperor: "Don't bring your wilderness habits here. We're all the same. These girls are our partners, not our vassals. Therefore, we don't have the right to order them around. Everything must be done according to the rules."

"The girls get up at 9:00 a. m. to work and finish at 4:00 p. m. Their performances are also during their work hours. At all other times, unless there are special reasons, we cannot disturb their lives."

"And if you need to talk to them, you can't just walk through walls! Remember to knock! Regardless of whether these members are male or female, you have to show them basic respect. I don't think you have any objections to that, right?"

These two Beast Lords are used to being wild outside, and they can even pass through walls.

Both men and women need their own private space, and since the relationship is a partnership, neither party should disturb the other's life.

If Beast Lord could simply pass through walls without regard to gender, then it wouldn't matter. But these girls, they might be different. So, to avoid awkwardness, it's best to be clear about some things.

The Great Emperor can run around in the streets without clothes because he is a penguin with lots of feathers.

Zaro and Doli are essentially a cloud of smoke; they just use more masculine voices.

The wolf and the sheep exchanged a glance and nodded in agreement.

Without the concept of the Great Emperor, they might have done many embarrassing things based on their previous habits, after all, they are not human.

The Great Emperor: "That's all. It's getting late, and Master Huang also has work to do. Let's go back to the office and think about how to perfect this band's debut song."

Since Huang Cao has little artistic talent, he only contributed money and went to the concerts.

Chapter 699 The Beginning of the Avalanche: The Surge of Infections in Siergrag!

After some time.

Siergrag.

In one house, a middle-aged man was bowing his head in front of the graves of his wife and children.

His wife died a few days ago due to complications during childbirth. He wanted to go to the hospital, but the local hospital in Siergrag couldn't perform a cesarean section; the only option was to go to the hospital in Utopia.

When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor gave them a very disheartening message: you don't have any Utopian currency on you, and the hospital won't accept it.

The man immediately roared, "Didn't you have this surgery available six months ago? My neighbor had it done!"

But to everyone's surprise, the doctor said, "Our teacher is from Utopia; he performed all the surgeries. We were just observing."

This surgery isn't particularly difficult, but what kind of environment is Siergrag?

This is a typical period of direct transition from a semi-primitive society to an industrial society.

Silver Ash's investment in Utopia has been less than ten years; the hospital was built two years ago, and the staff were brought in the previous year.

The knowledge gaps in the middle cannot be bridged in a year or two, so even the simplest surgery requires a complete knowledge chain to be performed.

In the past, when faced with this situation, both men and women in Siergrag would have fallen into despair.

But now, for this man, hope is right in front of him, yet it remains elusive.

Because of the benevolence of Master Huang in the past, the Ideal Coin of Utopia even needed to be exchanged for the local currency of Siergrag in this small country, so the Ideal Coin did not circulate much among the people, or rather, it did not exist at all.

Previously, all Siergrag needed to do was print money and then use that money to exchange for utopian Ideal Coin to buy resources outside, without ever considering the day when the credit would collapse.

The snow continued to fall, and the man's body grew colder and colder until it was finally buried in the snow along with the tombstone.

This is a microcosm of the lives of countless people in Siergrag.

After all, people still had to make a living, and as time went on, most of the industrial products in the hands of the Siergrag people gradually became unusable due to lack of energy.

Although Master Huang sold them to them at a low price before, it was still higher than the cost, so the price wasn't particularly cheap.

In addition, Siergrag was already poor...

A few more days passed.

The Miss Doctor lay on the soft sofa, drinking beer, and slowly scanned the death toll on the data list.

"Yesterday's death toll was around 150, and the number of births was 2. This is a very bad sign, but it has nothing to do with me. It's just that the death toll is gradually returning to what it used to be in Siergrag. Besides, it's winter now, and the number of births should be higher in the spring."

Modern industry and technology have brought unimaginable convenience to humankind, making seasonal changes no longer a difficulty in reproduction.

But once all that fades away, everything will return to its most primitive state.

Now it's simply a matter of letting Siergrag return to where it belongs.

Do you really think that high birth rates and high survival rates are a given?

When Utopia shut down the hospital, everyone was brought back to reality.

As for condemnation? Miss Doctor isn't afraid of condemnation, because every brick in Utopia's hospital, except for the land, was laid by the Utopians themselves.

Because building a hospital is no small matter, and every step can have far-reaching consequences, it must be built by the Utopians themselves to ensure the quality of the project.

Medical equipment, and even every single tile, has nothing to do with Siergrag except for its floor space.

The medicines were all transported from Utopia, which shows just how much Master Huang has invested in this land.

"Yesterday's new infections numbered 300. How many people are there in the entire country of Siergrag? Just over a million. How come so many have been infected all of a sudden? Silver Ash, have you become a heartless capitalist too?"

Miss Doctor was slightly drunk, but her mind was perfectly clear.

Since Silver Ash decided to excavate the Originium beneath Holy Mountain, the number of people involved has suddenly increased from one or two to several hundred.

Perhaps it won't be long before the number of infected people surges in this once peaceful land.

Only a few paths lay before the major families.

They concealed it and then watched as Originium Infection broke out in their own country.

Public disclosure damages the official credibility, leaving only repeated apologies, but offering no real cure, or an option to downplay the impact of Originium Infection in a literal sense?

Yelagond cannot cure those infected with Originium Infection. While the Originium Catastrophe can be blocked by Mighty Bricks, the disease cannot. Ordinary Siergrag do not possess any noble bloodline.

However, the sudden increase of several hundred people was indeed unexpected; in the past, the daily increase was only in the single digits...

After a brief investigation, the Miss Doctor learned that an explosion had occurred at the Originium mine, causing dust to erupt and infecting the miners who were unable to evacuate in time.

Yelagond probably didn't expect this situation either; even she couldn't possibly keep an eye on every part of the country at all times.

To be honest, it was a bit of a surprise. The Miss Doctor thought it was Originium engine explosion, but it turns out that the safety of Siergrag's self-developed engine is actually quite good.

Forget it, I won't keep cursing this country. Let's watch our mouths.

Meanwhile, at Siergrag Hospital...

The Saintess personally led people and supplies to comfort the infected Siergrag people, but miraculously, almost all of the infected people thought it was just a minor accident.

"Saintess Holiness, I can still work. I'll continue working tomorrow!"

A miner accepted the gift from the Saintess and was about to leave when he was quickly stopped by a soldier.

Amidst the puzzled gazes of the many miners, Enia walked to a high place.

She had been pondering how to explain it since she arrived, but ultimately chose to keep it a secret because it was a huge trap.

If we were to be completely honest, the miners would definitely riot, since the major families hadn't explicitly stated this beforehand. Were we supposed to have the soldiers kill them all?

And even if she confessed, what could she do? Apart from Utopia, no country on this land could control Originium Infection.

The only remedy now is to allow these people to rest well before the onset of symptoms, and to provide them with three meals a day and full subsidies, in order to slow down the onset of Originium Infection as much as possible.

This is the only thing we can do now; all we can do is continue to improve the miners' working conditions to prevent further accidents.

"Citizens of Yelagond, you are now infected with a peculiar disease. If you come into contact with the wrong people, you may infect your loved ones. Therefore, you cannot leave your home. But rest assured, the three great families will take care of all your expenses and daily necessities here..."

Enia spoke vaguely, but those below all believed their Saintess.

After lying with a heavy heart, Enia didn't linger. She almost ran back to the car and rushed into Ya'er's arms, crying loudly.

"I can't do it, I really can't... How could I lie to them..."

Hearing the girl cry, Ya'er also felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

How did things turn out this way?

Mr. Huang... I was wrong, a deep sense of regret welled up in Ya'er's heart.

Faced with the current dire situation, she couldn't even feel hatred towards Utopia, because Utopia had neither invaded nor deliberately suppressed it; it was simply taking back what it was rightfully entitled to take back, without even plundering its resources.

They simply closed the factory and recouped all the foreign exchange they had invested.

There were almost no international sanctions, except that Siergrag's reputation was ruined and there was no currency available for purchase.

What can you say if you don't have the money to buy it?

Master Huang never charged Siergrag a single penny of interest on his previous investments, and even the resources were all transported from outside.

There was no plundering, no exploitation, and they even provided generous employee benefits, respecting the local people's lifestyle and dignity.

These are all things of the distant past now, and the weather is getting colder and colder.

"Enia, I'd like to speak with the Miss Doctor alone..."

Enia tried to lift her head, but as soon as she did, she fell into a deep sleep.

"Please forgive my little act of capriciousness this time... Saintess Majesty..."

Surely, there are other ways to achieve a good outcome for both parties.

Ya'er's body transformed into a white light and instantly arrived at the foot of the Utopia Trading Company.

Kou Jun:

Upon seeing Ya'er's sudden appearance, the soldiers did not immediately raise their weapons. A captain, who was leading the group, stepped forward and said:

"Miss Ya'er, the Doctor does not wish to see you. Please return quickly to avoid causing any misunderstanding among the Siergrag people."

Chapter 700 is really filled with thoughts of Siergrag ~

"Please, sir, inform her that I really need to see Miss Doctor," Ya'er said to the guard.

For some reason, she couldn't teleport into any of the facilities in Utopia, even though she used to be able to.

But as the god of Siergrag, if he were to let the two countries continue to fight, Siergrag would surely lose.

The major families are determined to fight Utopia to the bitter end, because nothing they do now poses a threat to their rule.

The children of noble families continued to eat and drink as they pleased; although their living environment changed drastically, it wasn't a world of difference.

But those at the bottom are in a much worse situation; their ability to withstand risks is completely incomparable to that of other families.

Moreover, the national economy is almost entirely tied to the military, making it even more difficult for people at the bottom to survive than ever before. It's all about national strength, but national strength can't compete with utopia.

If this triggers a domestic crisis, Utopia can then truly use the banner of humanitarianism to provide aid.

The final result will not change.

But if the outcome remains unchanged, what suffering did the people of Siergrag endure along the way? Were they praying that Siergrag would produce an extraordinary, powerful individual?

Based on the current trend, it will collapse in five years, let alone ten.

The number of people infected with Originium Infection is surging, in particular. Do these people deserve to die?
