Tanya started the car and drove toward the Green Dragon City Gate.
Darryl took a deep breath when they approached the city gate; he felt heavy-hearted when he saw the scene before him.
He saw thousands of civilians had gathered outside the city gate. Most of those people had fled from the World Universe. Some of them carried packages, and some helped the old and young in their families. All of them looked exhausted.
A checkpoint had been set up at the city gate where the fully armed Green Dragon City garrison soldiers were interrogating those refugees.
The refugees pushed and shoved each other because there were too many people. The city gate was in a frenzy.
“Shut up!”
A captain yelled solemnly, “What’s with the noise? Get in line and come one by one. Don’t blame me for being harsh if you don’t follow the rules.”
He was loud and intimidating. The noisy crowd suddenly became a lot quieter.
At that moment, Darryl and the others got out of the car.
“Why are there so many people?” Jonas Dokko muttered; he looked distraught.
Jonas thought it was not suitable for him—the aloof young master of an affluent family—to stand with those filthy refugees.
Tanya also frowned slightly.
However, Tanya did not dislike those people. Instead, she was anxious because she wanted to enter the city quickly.
‘How long do we have to queue with so many people around?’
Darryl was solemn.
There were so many refugees, so one could only imagine the tense situation in the World Universe.
Darryl thought about it; he was about to walk forward to try to enter the city.
The situation in the World Universe could not be delayed any longer, so Darryl had to summon the Westrington Army quickly.
“Darren!”
Tanya turned to Darryl and said gently, “I’ll go and ask if these soldiers can let us through. You won’t have to wait in line if they let us go first.”
