After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 763

Alterra Village

While their Lord was digging enemy territory, the final clearing was happening in Alterra.

The enemies were tied and locked, heading towards their prison, while the others were set aside for further interrogations.

Fortunately, the rain had been reduced to trickles. "The rain is finally stopping…" a citizen mumbled, relieved. "Well, sort of."

During this time, they realized the effects of rain during fights. Not only were the fire abilities basically useless, it really affected everyone else as well.

They consumed a lot more energy and people had to be taken to the hospitals even when the war had completely turned one-sided. Why? Because they couldn’t recover the energies fast enough.

Anyway, now that things had calmed, they rounded up the enemies to be placed in the two prisons, with the strong ones in the System Prison.

There were hundreds of prisoners taken in, and they’d definitely have to be squeezed uncomfortably inside.

Another awesome thing about aether prisons was that it self-cleaned.

They couldn’t imagine having to clean after these jerks!

As for the manual prison, there was a proper toilet there, and they’d definitely be beaten up by other prisoners if they dirtied their floor.

Bit by bit, they brought people in, waiting for the official announcement that the war was over before completely relaxing.

Still, it couldn’t be helped that most would let go of some tension. Their hearts and nervousness had calmed to some degree, and most had time to absorb what had happened.

This was especially true for the aborigines who had lived with wars since as far as they could remember.

All their lives, wars were synonymous to death and suffering. If a territory like Guia Village attacked them, if they were in any other village, they’d have assumed they’d have lost early on.

But Alterra came out as a clear winner.

Alterra was only a couple of months old.

One of the most shocked was the aborigines from the Terran mercenary team. For instance, Knauf and Essed.

They had never been in such a war before. They had watched as the leading team did their best to protect the people, even using those bombs—those must’ve been expensive—just to increase people’s rate of survival.

They also saw how the injured were immediately taken to the hospitals by brethren, with designated ’logistics’ people dedicated just to rescue people.

They had also seen how people protected and lifted each other up, rather than what they had been used to.

What made them most in awe was the results of the war.

To their knowledge, no one inside the territory died! There were hundreds of injuries, but no deaths!

Unprecedented!
