Chapter 539: Chapter 343: Top-class Chef, Specializing in Monster Cooking (5K)
Outside the Tianyuan Territory, wave after wave of refugees appeared, their arrival so forceful that even the well-prepared Tian Yuan Division was caught somewhat off guard.
However, unlike before, not even a single roaming wild monster could be seen around the Tianyuan Territory. The newly arrived refugees no longer had to face threats from wild monsters.
Otherwise, with the refugees emerging too rapidly and their positions fairly random, the guiding teams and patrol teams might not have been able to protect them.
"The main locations where refugees are emerging are still in the southern part of the territory," someone said.
"However, perhaps due to the excessive number of refugees, three groups have also appeared in the north. Based on the current situation, we need to send more help to the northern area," another added.
In the past, the vast majority of refugees appeared in the south.
That's because all the Guiding Landmarks of his Tianyuan Territory were erected in the south.
The living and working areas for Territory Citizens were also located in the southern part of the territory. The core area and the eastern, western, and northern regions were restricted zones, accessible only to a very small number of powerful and trusted Territory Citizens.
Now, refugees appearing in the eastern, western, and northern regions of the territory would eventually be guided to the entrance of South City.
Spanning several kilometers from North City to South City, and considering that the vast majority of refugees were ordinary people, some of whom were pale and malnourished, unable to walk such distances, Mu Yuan had long since established 'temporary stations' in various areas.
The vehicles were alchemic creations, designed by Isloa and built by Master Li.
The technical content of these trial-run transport vehicles was not high and they couldn't travel long distances, only operating on the smooth, constructed roads within the territory.
The transport vehicles were not hastily made.

Mu Yuan had always planned to implement a public transport system within the territory. As the Tianyuan Territory continued to expand with new areas being developed, some form of transportation was needed for people's use.
This batch of transport vehicles represented the trial-run public buses. Isloa would make improvements based on trial usage, introducing second and third-generation models.
Time slowly passed.
The surge of refugees began to slow down. The various teams responsible for guiding the refugees were gaining experience and handling things more adeptly.
At the entrance of the South City Gate in Tianyuan Territory.
The place had already gathered an increasing number of people, including refugees from all over the world and old Tianyuan residents bustling about tirelessly.
"Welcome to Tianyuan Territory. From now on, you will all begin a new life here. Here, no one will be oppressed; everyone can have enough food and warm clothing, and you won't have to worry about the threat of monsters.
Of course, this is on the condition that we all adhere to the laws of the territory," a municipal hall official said, repeating the speech over and over to calm some of the refugees' confusion and fear.
"...Let's work together to build a better tomorrow," the official concluded.
When the refugees followed the heavenly guidance and arrived here through the mist, they also heard the mystical hints from heaven and earth. However, not all refugees understood what 'Miracle Territory' or 'guidance' meant. For some, the sudden alterations in their situation caused utter astonishment and helplessness.
But since they had ended up here and were guided by the heavens and earth, it indicated that their circumstances were dire, and in their hearts, they longed for a secure home.
They were confused, bewildered, panicked, but seeing others of their kind and the steamy hot soup and porridge at a distance, the unease in their hearts dissipated a lot.
"Those in need of food, please queue up for your share, one per person. I'll repeat, queue in an orderly fashion. Anyone who disrupts the order will lose certain privileges, be sent to jail, and in severe cases..." the speaker, who was a captain from the Defensive Troops, declared.
His voice was loud, effortlessly reaching hundreds of meters around.
He thrust the heavy halberd in his hand into the ground as if piercing tofu, easily burying it in the soil.
This captain was a Halberd Guard, specifically chosen by Lu Liu for his particularly fierce and intimidating appearance among the mid-tier and senior officers.
Lu Liu initially wanted to invite a Rakshasa to be this 'deterrent.' A Rakshasa was someone whose mere face could make a child burst into tears.
But Lu Liu reconsidered – someone too menacing could easily crush the already unstable spirits of the refugees.
Moreover, using such a strong figure as a gatekeeper was an overuse of talent.
The captain, Li Gui, with his bell-sized eyes, swept his fierce gaze around, causing some of the refugees who had thought about taking advantage in the chaos to stiffen, stricken with fear.
There were simply too many refugees to expect everyone to have lofty morals like Mr. Mu and voluntarily follow the rules.
Especially since many of the refugees were hungry and food was right in front of them.
Once the scene became chaotic, it could become very difficult for the patrol teams to control, and at the very least, incidents of bloodshed would be inevitable.
These were his Paru, and Mu Yuan cherished them deeply.
However, with the base of refugees so large, there were always some who acted foolishly.
"I am a baron! Is this how you treat a noble baron? To think you would make me, a baron, stay with these lowly commoners – outrageous! Where is your lord, hurry up and bring your lord to see me!" a portly man exclaimed.
He was disheveled and his robe was covered in twigs and leaves, but the fabric's fine quality was still discernible. His claim of being a baron was probably not false.

But what of it, if he were a baron?
