Online: I Can See Health Bars-Chapter 1225 - 541: Foothold

Fang Yu, driving the carriage, looked straight ahead.

At Thunder City’s gate, a long queue was forming.

Among the queue, some were dressed rather poorly, while others had both guards and servants, either wealthy or noble.

However, without exception, they all had to honestly queue and wait at the city gate.

Fang Yu observed slightly and found the queue’s progression was actually not slow, the guards responsible for inspections were quite efficient, but there were too many people wanting to enter Thunder City, so it seemed like the queue was hardly moving.

Fang Yu first turned to look at Ding Hui, and at the latter’s slight nod, he drove the carriage to join the end of the queue.

Jumping the queue isn’t impossible; with Fang Yu’s current strength and wealth, he has the capital to do something forceful.

However, considering Thunder City is a large city, being new here, it’s better for the two to keep a low profile to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Under the scorching sun, the long queue was slowly advancing, the tedious wait inevitably made people feel bored, so when Fang Yu, such a ’newcomer’, joined the end of the queue, some people’s eyes had already turned over.

"This newcomer doesn’t seem to be doing well."

"Judging from the carriage and goods, compared to the previous caravans, it looks like small business."

"Really daring, in this current time, daring to be in the wild... Oh! Another team is coming!"

Fang Yu also turned back to look, and far behind, a caravan was approaching, approximately a team of seven or eight, all women.

But fully armed, with longswords at their waists and longbows on their backs, they looked difficult to deal with.

[Ye Danshan: 52/500.]

[Fu Yansi: 721/1500.]

[Xue Yunting: 1681/2000.]

[...]

Looking closely, it can be seen that everyone in this team carried some injuries, faintly keeping a woman named Ye Danshan protected in the center position.

That Ye Danshan, looking pale, her wrist bandaged with seeping blood, seemed ready to collapse anytime.

Perhaps because they were nearing Thunder City, the people in this group relaxed their tight expressions a bit, but still hurried with Ye Danshan to the back of Fang Yu’s spot, becoming part of the queue.

Fang Yu, not thinking much about it, was about to withdraw his gaze when he suddenly noticed a ’-1!’ damage number emerging from Ye Danshan’s head, slightly startled, Fang Yu reacted.

This one is seriously injured.

However, since it was none of his business, Fang Yu didn’t interfere much, unexpectedly someone from the rear team suddenly approached him quickly.

"What’s the matter?"

Fang Yu calmly looked at the person coming.

[Xue Yunting: 1681/2000.]

Despite having an injured hand, Xue Yunting politely cupped her hand toward Fang Yu and asked, "Brother, are you a medicine merchant?"

Ah?

Fang Yu turned back to Ding Hui, realizing they had a lot of leftover medicinal materials piled onto the carriage, despite having used up most of them.

He nodded slightly after thinking about it, and Xue Yunting immediately showed delight, asked eagerly.

"Could it be this brother has [Condensed Smoke Grass] or [Sun Essence Pill]? We urgently need them!"

What a good question.

Fang Yu turned to look at Ding Hui, but the latter was too lazy to even lift her eyelids.

Alright then.

The meaning was clear.

Fang Yu shook his head at the approaching person again.

Still unwilling to give up, Xue Yunting asked.

"Then is there any medicine pill for coagulating blood, stopping bleeding, or antidote for snake poison?"

Saying this, she glanced at Fang Yu’s carriage, with scattered goods and a woman sitting, it looked like they had been robbed, with not much remaining.

She probably asked with the tiniest sliver of hope.

And with Ding Hui not speaking, Fang Yu naturally continued shaking his head.

"No."

Disappointed, Xue Yunting said.

"Is that so... then, sorry for bothering."

She returned to her group to take care of Ye Danshan, wiping sweat, vaguely hearing ’miss’ and ’hold on a bit longer’, but Fang Yu didn’t care much and didn’t listen closely.

With Ye Danshan’s slow bleeding rate, she would definitely make it into the city, wouldn’t die from it.

At this time, more people joined the tail end of the long queue, all waiting patiently.

Just as Fang Yu advanced to a median point in the queue... suddenly there was commotion ahead.

"... What’s going on! What’s going on! Get back there!"

"Anyone who steps forward will be beheaded!"

"Foolish Underworld, obey orders, catch them all, no one is allowed to escape!"

As the commotion broke out suddenly, by the time Fang Yu realized, several people were already rushing out from the city gate.

Yes, rushing out.

About five or six people, injured, burst through the city gate guard’s surrounds, and bolted outside.

"Escaped! Escaped!"

"Run, run, run! Leave this cursed place!!"

"Scatter and escape! Save yourselves!"

"Don’t enter the city! Don’t..."

Sizzle!!

The last person kindly shouting towards the queue had his head chopped off firsthand.

Headless body fell, causing a wave of panic and screams among those queuing.

As for the remaining escapees, they had already scattered, each running away.

"Captain Yi, stop sleeping! Someone has fled outside the city!"

"Captain Yi, wake up, something happened!!"

"Captain Yi, someone unauthorized left the city, shall we pursue?"

The guards shouted, and the direction of the shout was towards a guy sleeping soundly with a drawing book covering his face, leaning back against a chair, feet on the table.
