Chapter 390 Medical treatment, faith
Although Roland had been constantly exploiting Julius during this period, he had been forced to do so.
After all, Roland needs to concentrate on dealing with some matters that need to be dealt with as a priority, such as obtaining funds for the committee's operations. These matters can only be handled by Roland himself.
Although Roland could crack open various treasure houses and collect wealth easily, it would not be so easy if it were replaced by other members of the committee.
Unlike Roland and Hela who can go into battle lightly, it is not so easy to send people from the committee. If there are too few people, the cracking speed will be slow, and if there are too many people, it will be easy to fight with the green tide.
Moreover, the various defense measures of the treasure house can send countless people back to the Fountain of Life for resurrection. Moreover, most of these treasure houses have backup plans. If you are not careful, the treasure house may self-destruct just after the crack is completed.
By then, you may have spent countless manpower and material resources, but in the end you may not have earned a penny.
Therefore, instead of sending people to dig, it would be better for Roland and Hela to do it themselves.
As for the Dragon's Back Mountains, that is an exception. The heritage of the clan countries was meant to be left to future generations, so generally they would not set up a mutual destruction trap, and even if it failed, there would not be any particularly serious consequences.
Therefore, in this situation, Roland had no choice but to put the political pressure of the War Council on Julius to make things difficult for him.
However, after dealing with all the matters, big and small, Roland returned to Apocalypse and resumed his daily administrative work.
Of course, Roland still had some conscience. After seeing and examining Julius's almost dried-up body and soul, Roland took over her administrative work and ordered Julius to rest well.
After all, Roland has nothing to do now, so it would be great if he could share the burden with her. He can't continue to exploit her, that would be too cruel.
Therefore, after Roland took on the work, Julius became relaxed and had nothing to do.
Julius had never been so relaxed in his life.
Before Roland arrived in Old Qi and brought them food, shelter and security, Julius was the most common refugee in the turbulent times of Donnar. Under the protection of the monks, he was chased and driven by the green tide like other children in the monastery, fleeing everywhere.
On the way of escape, they not only have to face the threat from the Green Tide, but also the malice from all sides. These malices include not only refugees who are also fleeing, but also increasingly rampant bandits, as well as the various knight kingdoms and noble territories they pass by.
Fortunately, their team is pretty good. There are more than a dozen monks with extraordinary powers and dozens of boys and girls who have received sword training. Although they have been embarrassed along the way, they have not encountered any particularly difficult situations in the past few years.
It was not until Julius was seven years old that the knights of Donnar gave an order and their team completely fell apart.
Faced with the knights' malice, the knights reluctantly let them go at the cost of sending all ten monks and children over ten years old into exile.
So Julius watched helplessly as they were used as cannon fodder to delay the Green Tide. In less than a month, he received the news that they had been killed in battle.
If the remaining monks had not seized the opportunity and escaped with them, they might have been forcibly conscripted to serve as cannon fodder.
After that, as the eldest of the remaining children, Julius took on the task of taking care of the other children. In the end, as the monks sacrificed themselves for them one by one, Julius, who had taken up weapons early on, even became the core combat force of their small team against the external malice.
When they fled to Old Kai, Julius became the team's only fighting force after the last surviving monk was infected with a disease.
With only a rusty sword and desperate madness, Julius, who was only ten years old, was able to protect the last people in the refugee camp full of hostility and hold on until Roland's arrival.
After Roland occupied Old Qi, even though Roland offered work as relief, Julius was still very uneasy.
After all, Julius couldn't even think about the possibility of having enough food just by picking up trash, running and delivering food.
In Julius's opinion, anyone could do this kind of thing, so fear was replaced and the abandoned Julius turned his attention to the administrative team that the old Qi had just established.
By rolling continuously and madly, Julius beat all the children of the same period.
She gave up the swordsmanship she had practiced since childhood, gave up her dream of being a knight, and chose the path of a spellcaster that was not welcomed by the people of Donnar. She worked diligently and continuously.
Even after becoming the Archon of the Old Kingdom, Julius continued to work diligently and did not dare to slack off at all.
After the War Committee was established and he was promoted to Archon of the Administrative Department, Julius did not relax.
Whether it was the war preparedness plan, going to the front line after the war with the Green Tide, the core formation of the coalition army, or the ten-year economic plan, Julius worked diligently.
It can be said that Julius has never had a peaceful and leisurely life. Before the age of ten, he suffered the pain of fleeing. Every day when he woke up, he thought about how to survive. After the age of ten, he worked diligently for Roland for several years, struggling internally and constantly under pressure.
Julius, who was used to being busy, became somewhat restless after being forced to rest by Roland.
She lay on the bed, staring at the unfamiliar ceiling, turned her head, looked at the doctor beside her, and said.
"I think I can be discharged from the hospital. Please let me go back to the department. I still have work to do in the department."
In response to Julius' words, the doctor in the room smiled at her and said.
"No."
"Then you can't go back to the Ministry. Can you just return the communication device to me?"
Julius pursed his lips and said with some reluctance.
The doctor retracted the magic circle, ended today's treatment, and said with a smile.
"Ms. Julius, the chairman's order is for you to rest well. Even if we let you go back, the administrative department will not let you in."
"As for the communication device, if you want it, I can give it to you. However, according to the chairman's order, your communication device has been forcibly shut down and cannot be used."
Hearing the doctor's words, Julius looked up at the ceiling with weak eyes and said.
"Forget it, that's fine."
"Although according to the chairman's order, you will not return to your post, but considering that your body has recovered well, you can leave the hospital and move around freely. Of course, you can continue to stay if you want."
The doctor continued speaking as he packed up his things.
"If you go out, it's best to come back every three days for a checkup. According to the chairman's order, if you want to return to work, you must first pass our inspection and confirm that you have fully recovered."
After saying that, the doctor pushed the cart out of the room.
After hearing the doctor's words, Julius did not hesitate, got out of bed decisively, changed his clothes in the dressing room, and left the hospital. Although the committee had the Fountain of Life, it was not so extravagant as to commit suicide and rely on resurrection for treatment for a minor illness. Therefore, under Roland's order, the committee still established a basic medical system.
However, although the committee has established a hospital system, many diseases can be cured through very simple low-level spells due to the advanced spell system brought by Roland.
Only a few congenital diseases or physical disabilities are more difficult to treat and require hospitalization.
Even mental illnesses can be treated through positive and negative energy spells, the only thing it will take is a longer treatment time.
However, since the Fountain of Life is realized through the use of necromancy, it is more susceptible to the influence of dark elements and negative energy.
Even though Roland used the Fountain of Life that had been improved countless times, and improved it further based on his own situation, using negative energy spells to absorb the extreme emotions of the dead in battle, the resurrection of the Fountain of Life still caused various mental problems.
Therefore, although a medical system has been established, since the number of spiritual patients in the committee is far greater than that of physical patients, the committee's understanding of spiritual treatment in the medical system far exceeds that of physical treatment.
In short, at Apocalypse Hospital, most of Julius' patients suffer from mental illnesses.
As a spellcaster specializing in positive energy, or holy light, Julius is sensitive to the mind.
If it was before Julius lifted the weights, she wouldn't care, she could even use her holy light to comfort them, but now her own sea of soul is in trouble and she needs treatment. If she encounters them, Julius, who is sensitive, will feel uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the psychic spellcaster at the hospital discovered this problem when he let Julius out for the first time to recuperate in the hospital yard, and immediately adjusted Julius' activity time in the yard so that Julius could go out for exercise at the same time as the physically injured patients.
But among a bunch of wheelchair-bound patients, only Julius could walk freely, and she didn't like this situation very much. Therefore, she seldom went out for a walk and stayed in the room in a daze and slept.
Fortunately, after holding it in for more than ten days, she is finally able to be discharged from the hospital.
Walking out of the hospital, Julius smiled as the breeze blew towards him, and his depressed mood improved a lot.
After relaxing a little, Julius also looked around.
As the head of the Administration Department and Archon of Apocalypse, Julius was quite familiar with the planning of Apocalypse City. Therefore, after confirming the location, she went to the Administration Department of Apocalypse without giving up.
Then, she was turned away.
No one will disobey the chairman's orders.
After realizing this, Julius had no choice but to give up the idea of returning to work.
After being unable to return to the administrative department, Julius lost his direction and once again didn't know what to do.
Should I go back to the hospital and continue to stare blankly and sleep?
Julius shook his head and rejected the idea that popped up in his mind. After thinking about it, she decided to take a look at the current situation of Apocalypse. Maybe she could find some room for improvement?
Come to think of it, she hasn't been patrolling around Tianqi City for a long time.
Julius did what he said and began to walk aimlessly on the streets of Apocalypse City, looking here and there.
Since Julius didn't have a clear goal, as she walked, she came to a church area in Apocalypse.
Julius raised his head slightly and looked at the church area and the believers coming and going.
Faith.
Julius looked at the double sword symbol of the Donnar Knights' faith on the church not far away and narrowed his eyes slightly.
This should be the Church of Glory, one of the traditional knight beliefs registered with the Administration.
Julius looked at the mark thoughtfully.
Although Julius was born an orphan in a monastery, in fact, Julius is now considered to be without faith.
When she followed the monks before, she could barely be considered a pan-believer, but after several years of escape and busyness, Julius had almost completely lost interest in religious beliefs.
There are many people like Julius in the current committee.
The traditional beliefs of knights were almost all shattered by the physical attacks of the Green Tide.
After all, no matter how good Donnar's traditional knightly beliefs were, they were still shattered by the Green Tide.
Especially the duel culture advocated by the traditional knight's belief. After the Green Tide was crushed at the very beginning, some Donar people began to question the duel culture. After being influenced by the duel culture for hundreds and thousands of years, the Donar people had lost the experience of large-scale wars, which was one of the important reasons why Donar was constantly defeated by the Green Tide.
Therefore, following the dueling culture, some Donnar people also began to question the traditional chivalric beliefs.
Originally, this kind of doubt was not very big. After all, most Donnar people did not have the time to think about these issues.
It was not until the War Council repelled and destroyed the Green Tide that the Donnar people, no longer under life and death pressure, had time to think.
With simple ideas, the people of Donnar began to reflect.
The Donnar system was completely inherited. The united army of Donnar beliefs was defeated, while the war committee using the power of order won.
So, duel culture is not okay, but order culture is okay.
If Roland had not passed any faith that was mainly based on worshipping him, otherwise, this situation would still be the case: traditional faith, no, new faith, yes.
It is also because of this that although Donnar's traditional knightly beliefs are not as popular as before, they are not completely forgotten and can still occupy a place in the management department of the committee.
However, due to the religious policies of the Council and the fall of the capital of the Central Kingdom, the traditional knightly faith lost its nominal leader.
Therefore, although it was in decline, the traditional knightly faith of Donnar chose to split up without hesitation and directly split into six independent churches. Who would want to be a subordinate when they can be the boss?
If it weren't for the Pantheon, a foreign faith like the Dawn Faith, they would have been even more divided.
And Glory Church is one of the churches born under such circumstances.
Julius walked into the cathedral while thinking about the information about the Glorious Church in his memory.
