Abyss Sequence-Chapter 439 - 14: The Great Migration

As time passed, more and more elves from Mayin City were thawed, and the parasites within them were deactivated, allowing them to control their bodies.

After gaining control of their bodies, the elves all started bawling without exception.

They were very aware of what ’they’ had done previously.

They watched helplessly as their friends and family died right in front of them, unable to do anything.

This left them in unbearable pain, difficult to resolve.

Mayin City gradually recovered from silence, but cries echoed throughout the city.

Some elves who were not controlled by parasites woke up after undergoing deactivation surgery and empathized with those who lost loved ones.

If they had encountered similar circumstances, they surely would have felt heartbroken too, feeling like the world was collapsing.

But now is not the time to waste!

Transporting over a million elves to Blue Star at once is impossible; they can only be moved in batches, with those who wake first being transferred first.

Yan Luo made several trips between Blue Star and Alfheim, coordinating manpower, before starting the migration of Mayin City’s elves.

Wu Zechuan mobilized all the hunters from No. 2 Crimson, gathering thousands of hunters to open the path between the portal location and the Abyss entrance, ensuring no demon could attack Mayin City’s elves along the way.

Large buses, each capable of carrying a hundred passengers, entered the Crimson Abyss, escorted by hunters to the vicinity of the open portal location, and set off as soon as they were filled.

To transport over a million elves, at least 12,000 bus trips are required, and the buses will wear out from use, making constant operation impossible. Therefore, Wu Zechuan not only had to coordinate with Lingquan City to send some buses over, but also had to have local factories at No. 2 Crimson modify vehicles, ensuring swift relocation of Mayin City’s elves.

Over on Blue Star, the United Government launched an initiative.

They called on society to donate supplies to build a city for the Mayin City elves.

In this donation campaign, the United Government refused money, only accepting supplies, solemnly declaring that all donated materials would go toward constructing a city for the Mayin City elves, with no one profiting from it.

No money accepted, only supplies.

Upon hearing this news, the people’s enthusiasm was immediately ignited.

Due to the United Government’s publicity, people on Blue Star generally knew why the Mayin City elves were relocating to Blue Star, understanding their need for assistance.

If it were money donations, people might not be as enthusiastic.

Though willing to aid those in need — and given that elves tend to be quite attractive, fitting the public’s aesthetic — the thought of donations being misappropriated diminishes their motivation.

This time is different; the United Government only collects supplies, signaling their stance.

The public was satisfied and naturally participated eagerly in this donation campaign.

Whether out of goodwill or vanity, the vast majority donated something.

Even children, guided by teachers, wrote letters or donated their favorite toys.

A wave of kindness and enthusiasm surged through Blue Star’s human society, and as everyone watched the exponentially growing list of donated items, all felt a sense of satisfaction.

Meanwhile, Lingquan City was mobilizing residents to prepare for the arrival of Mayin City’s elves.

Being the nearest city to No. 2 Crimson, Lingquan City was the only place capable of accommodating over a million elves.

Simultaneously, Lingquan City Government organized a construction team.

That large-scale team, escorted by soldiers, headed to the wilderness to build a new city between Lingquan City and No. 2 Crimson.

After all, the elves from Mayin can’t stay in Lingquan City indefinitely; they need space to move freely.

A city capable of housing fifty thousand elves is Blue Star’s gift to Mayin City’s elves.

The subsequent expansion of the city would be up to the elves themselves; until then, they’d need to learn how to operate construction machinery and city planning, a process taking a considerable amount of time.

During this time, Lingquan City would absorb and digest all the benefits brought by the elves from Mayin City.

No. 2 Crimson’s buses had gone one round but only transported a thousand-plus elves from Alfheim.

Calculating at this pace, eight to ten days are required to relocate all the Mayin City elves to Blue Star.

Due to the Mayin City incident, Helena no longer needed to escort caravans, so she returned to No. 2 Crimson to console the elves transferred without understanding what had transpired.

Helena interacts the most with elves; Sasa generally engages only with high-ranking officials of Elf City, but Helena is different; she knows elves in each Elf City.

As a brigade leader, Helena seeks ways to earn money for her brigade.

The materials dropped by demons hunted during caravan escorts can be directly traded with elves, bypassing the Lord’s Mansion.

Some demon materials are low-priced on Blue Star, yet can be traded for high-value goods produced by the elves, which are considered high-value commodities on Blue Star. Using low-priced demon materials to obtain high-value goods for resale is what Helena consistently does.

Consequently, she knows some elves from Mayin City.

The elves hadn’t realized what was happening when their lord ushered them onto buses, transporting them to the human world, panic being inevitable.

At that moment, familiar human Helena stepped up to calm their emotions.

Through Helena’s explanation and comforting, the elves gradually understood what had happened to them and the deals made between the lord and humans.

However, exchanging ’complete integration into Blue Star’ for human aid wasn’t an unreasonable trade-off.

All elves in Mayin City were parasitized, and without killing the parasites, they would certainly be controlled, brutalizing their friends nearby.

Once parasites are killed, their spines were hollowed out, needing treatment to avoid paralysis or death.

Essentially, humans were rescuing them.

From the moment their bodies were parasitized, their fate of death was irreversible because once parasites hatched, targeting their spines would follow. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

All elves in Mayin City had hollow sections within their spines, more or less.

Once parasites left, paralysis was certain, with a small chance of death.

Some elves parasitized not long ago could still be saved with their technology, but those whose spines were hollowed could only be saved with human medical technology.

Upon learning this, the elves accepted joining Blue Star.

Elves were successively transferred from Alfheim to Blue Star, but Helena alone couldn’t operate continuously, even with her brigade members.

Luckily, the elves from No. 2 Crimson weren’t all moved immediately upon hearing Helena’s explanations; some were left behind, awaiting the next batch transfer.

Hence, those elves informed incoming elves about the happenings in Mayin City, significantly reducing Helena’s workload.

Not only hunters, but even ordinary residents of No. 2 Crimson were mobilized to distribute water and food to the elves.

No. 2 Crimson Hunter’s Guild temporarily opened the elf language translation plugin, available for download to all volunteers, enabling communication with the elves.

Elf exchange students from Alfheim were particularly busy, considering these were their kin.

Some students were simply from Mayin City; upon learning about the parasite incident in their hometown, it felt like the sky was collapsing.

They suffered internally, wanting to find their family and friends, hoping they were alright, but at that moment, they could do nothing but pray.

Pray that their loved ones weren’t hurt or dead.
