Necromancer: Becoming a God from a Lord
Chapter 500: The Slave's Mark
Bang!
Young City Hall official held a seal in his hand and put a crimson stamp on the half-palm card.
"Okay, please pack up this temporary ID card and don't lose it. If you really can't find it, you should go to the city hall to report the loss and reissue it immediately. Otherwise, you will be regarded as an unknown foreigner by the patrolman and be arrested directly in the detention center , even sent back to the southern border! ”
The young official kept talking, raised his hand and stuffed the card into the dazed Hick's hand. He turned to look at his colleague near the window and smiled bitterly: "You don't know how many times I repeated this sentence today, my wife said this I kept muttering it in my sleep for several days.”
The colleague also shook his sore arms in anger and complained in a low voice: "There's no way! The problem that can be solved by hanging a signboard, who told these new immigrants to be illiterate..."
When Shikh heard this, his face turned slightly red. He subconsciously pulled the linen scarf around his neck upwards, covering most of his face.
A municipal official, who is also in his early twenties, happened to pass by with documents, turned his head and glanced, frowned and reminded him: "Sir, it is best not to cover his face in the city, as this will be the police department. Patrolmen mistakenly think you are a suspicious person and cause unnecessary trouble."
He spoke loudly, and as soon as he spoke, he immediately attracted the attention of many people around him. When the registry officials saw it, they immediately greeted with a smile: "Ah! Supervisor Dave, are you here to work in the registry office today?"
"Deputy Supervisor, I'm the Deputy Supervisor, and I'm just taking a break today, just passing by..." Dave also blushed and quickly corrected the other party's name, "What's going on with these new immigrants? Why are everyone half-masked? Either scarf or scarf.”
The subordinate officials looked embarrassed and quickly explained in a low voice: "They are slaves sent from the Principality of Barkley..."
Before he could finish his words, Sick had raised his hand and gently pulled the mask off, revealing a huge burning mark below his cheek - which means that they were slave marks belonging to Duke Carlo's private property.
The others present immediately whispered, and looked at Shik and others with surprise and sympathy. Most of the people in the Principality of St. Valen have never really seen slaves, especially this group that has a lifelong imprint on their faces.
Dave opened his mouth slightly and watched as the group followed his advice one after another, and took off the scarf and face towels with bitter faces. Even the child, who was only six or seven years old, had his dirty and thin faces. It has left an ugly mark.
"I'm so hateful!" Dave couldn't help but curse himself in his heart. No wonder his boss taught him not to be too "official" and "formalist". The eyes of these children looking at him were like whipping and rinking chi.
The condemnation of conscience made him hesitate for a moment before he spoke hard: "No... don't worry, even if you reveal... the scars, you will never be discriminated against or treated unfairly in Xinghuo City. I can... ensure."
However, Shik and others did not show any relief... They followed the returning army thousands of miles north, passing Yinsong City, Jinhui City, Fengyuan City and Grizzly Castle along the way, and finally boarded the miraculous mountain train Arriving here, although he was not driven away by the people of various cities due to the protection of the army along the way, the naked and unconcealed rejection and contempt were real.
He did not think that there would be any changes when he came to Starfire City. Although it was revealed everywhere here, all kinds of magical creations made the city look like a kingdom on earth... But the dual identities of slaves and foreigners were still enough to make them The status is as low as the soil.
Seeing this, Dave hurriedly came to his colleagues in the registration office and asked in a low voice: "What are the arrangements for these slaves... what are the foreign immigrants? Are they temporarily placed in the shelter area outside the city? Where are the work places in the future?"
"In order to avoid conflict, they temporarily did not live with the immigrants in China and arranged it separately in the newly built South Gate shelter area." The subordinate replied honestly, "I can't read and have no other skills, so I can only do it for the time being for the time being Arrangements will be made to the mining area and forest farm, but the Dongtuo Base will hold a new round of personnel recruitment in a few days. Perhaps these people will have a good future when they go there."
Dave nodded, thinking that this arrangement was reasonable, but from the corner of his eyes he saw these people's thin and worn outfits - almost no one carries any luggage packages, many children and half-aged teenagers were even barefoot, and they were two more. It’s winter months, and I’m afraid my toes will be frozen directly.
"The military department is too careless to transport these immigrants. Why don't even distribute the most basic relief materials to them?"
The subordinate quickly reached out to cover his mouth, "Speak quietly! Don't offend those guys from the military department at will. They don't know any pity and care. The task is to transport immigrants, so they will only be responsible for transporting... they don't care about the extra things."
The population management department responsible for receiving these slaves has arranged relief supplies, but now is a special period when refugees from all over the country are pouring into the city. The entire municipal department is completely overloaded, and everyone is so busy that they are not touching the ground. The procedures for applying for materials must be approved layer by layer, which leads to delayed issuance.
Dave sighed, always feeling a little sad, "Forget it, I won't take a vacation today. I'll go back later, take the relief application procedures in person, and stamp the approval of relevant departments one by one... As soon as tomorrow They got warm clothes and shoes.”
Hick hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and thanked sincerely: "Sir, thank you for your kindness and goodwill..."
He paused and stammered: "Compared to the reward of food and clothing, we...we would rather go and see where we will settle down in the future. Along the way, we heard from those soldiers that what we were given was...a solid house built of stone."
A child with a scar on his face asked timidly: "Respected sir, are we also being detained here? I don't want to be separated from my parents..."
Dave's heart tightened, and he quickly explained in a gentle voice: "First of all, I am not a sir, I am an ordinary person like you, but my position is the deputy director of the archives department. Secondly, we will not detain you. The place we will take you to later...should be called a temporary new home!"
No mistake in one song, one post, one content, one content, one book, one forum, one 6, one 9!
"A temporary new home?"
"Yes, after you have adapted to the city for a month, if no illegal or criminal behavior is recorded, you can replace the temporary ID card in your hand with a resident ID card and become a formal resident protected by the city lord!"
After that, he pointed to the ugly mark on the child's face and suggested uncertainly: "I heard that the spellcasters in the medical hospital have magical and superb methods. They can even replant the limbs of the injured with broken hands and feet. When you are completely settled, I will help you ask... see if they have a way to remove these artificial scars."
Hike's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he trembled with excitement: "Really...really?"
