The Medallion novel Chapter 1400

In an abandoned city in a small country, countless homeless people swarmed up as the help and ration from the Holy Dragon Empire had arrived and were being facilitated by the army.

"Don't push. Everyone will receive their share. Just line up properly so that we can distribute them faster." In an open area among the ruins, several wooden tables were placed accordingly, where large pots full of hot porridge rested on them. At the same time, three beautiful women were serving the porridge to the civilians that formed a long line. The people were delighted that on top of the hot meal that they could eat, they were being served by gorgeous and kind-hearted ladies.

"Sabina, look at all these people. They're wearing such shabby clothes when the winter is around the corner. They might get sick later on. Shouldn't we prepare some warm clothes for them?" a woman in blue, who looked so dignified and graceful, asked the woman in white.

"Oh, right! I almost forgot. Thanks for reminding me, Lucilla. I was about to ask Commander Li about it, but it slipped off my mind after we got busy preparing for the food. We really need to request the Holy Dragon Empire to bring some warm clothes for the people here," the woman in white replied.

These two women were none other than Sabina and Lucilla. They were part of the group that was sent for the operation in this remote area.

At that moment, a woman in red complained to the other two as she pursed her lips, "God! I'm so tired and my waist is so sore. If I had known that it would be this boring, I wouldn't have come with you."

"Oh, come on, Shirley. No one asked you to be here. Aren't you the one who insisted on coming with us? So, if you have complaints, blame yourself for that," Sabina retorted in an annoyed tone.

"Hey, you! Watch your language! I've been tolerating you for a long time now. Don't judge me or goad me as long as you have the opportunity," Shirley retorted at once.

"Oh, yeah? If my words are so displeasing to your ears, then just cover your ears! Or better yet, you can go back to the Holy Dragon Empire and enjoy your bright and graceful life there." Sabina wasn't the type to back down, especially when it was against Shirley.

"What? There's something wrong with your tongue. Do you know that? I won't be disgraced by you. I'm going to teach you a lesson today!" Then, Shirley suddenly waved a spoon and pointed it at Sabina's face as she glared at her with her elegant eyes.

"Really now? I disgraced you? You're the one who's embarrassing yourself!" Sabina answered sharply.

Upon hearing this, Shirley wasn't able to control herself anymore. She immediately dashed towards Sabina.

On the other hand, Sabina didn't show any weakness and put on a posture that was also ready to battle it out.

Seeing that the members of the army were about to start a fight, the people in front of the table started retreating in fear that they might get caught up in the women's fight.

"You two! Stop this right away. You're scaring the civilians! Ugh. I don't know what to do with you." Lucilla didn't know if she was going to cry or laugh. However, since it wasn't the first time that this happened, she didn't find this incident too surprising.

Out of nowhere, an old man in ragged clothes and a bamboo hat appeared in the crowd. He seemed to be carrying various medicinal materials on his back as he passed by the area. As he slightly raised his bamboo hat, his eyes fell on the three women. There was something in his eyes that showed a nostalgic expression but also faded away soon after.

When the old man was about to leave, a commotion suddenly rose from the crowd. The people started dispersing as if they had seen a terrifying monster. It turned out that a child between the ages of five or six collapsed to the ground, and when they saw him, he was trembling while his skin had already darkened.

"Oh no. It's the plague…

The plague is coming for us again!"

"Hurry up! Get away from him or all of us will be infected!"

The crowd began to panic, running as far as they could. The once peaceful area was instantly filled with screams and total chaos.

Seeing this, Sabina and Shirley, who were fighting, immediately looked at each other and agreed to put their squabble off even without uttering a word. Then, they rushed into the crowd and shouted, "Everyone, don't panic! Maintain a distance of about ten meters and wait for further instructions."

Hearing their clear order, the people seemed to have calmed down a bit and did as they were ordered.

At the same time, Lucilla also led another group of soldiers and soon blocked off the surroundings.

After securing the civilians, Sabina and Shirley cautiously walked towards the child and examined him carefully.
