Chapter 483: CXII. Princess
Inside the hospital at Kelor City.
It’s called a hospital, but it’s more like a place for terminal care.
The various drugs developed by the Northern Prison are very expensive. Back on the Black Sail Ship, the medicines were abundant because Liszt led the way in making lots of money, and public funds were strong. In terms of medical conditions, it reached the standards of the Aran Army.
But here.
From an economic perspective, investing resources in the disabled would be detrimental to the overall situation.
Moreover, in Mulong, education was monopolized by the nobles, and knowledge itself was a resource.
The Great Wetland, also a jewel of Aran, was the opposite.
The sub-dragon people of the Wetland, upon finishing their studies and returning, immediately declared themselves as the Emperor, while the various black societies entrenched in the Wetland madly fed drugs to Aran. The poor had their own ways to fight; if Murphys didn’t pay tribute annually, this jewel would have blinded the Emperor.
In Mulong, those who could study abroad were the second generation, aligned with their fathers upon return. To them, having been tainted by foreign airs, they were incomparable. The domestic tribes were savages that would not obey unless they were entirely wiped out; fortunately, the railroad was coming through, and they hoped to be assimilated by Aran soon, becoming a developed country and saving themselves the trouble of dealing with the savages.
Thus, the medical conditions, sanitary environment, and the skill level of the doctors here were extremely limited.
In any case, it was a cauldron of despair.
