Capítulo 221: The Great Rebuilding

The water supply itself was another issue.

The city's water was simply drawn from the lake, which was never particularly clean. It was naturally prone to carrying waterborne diseases.

To address this, Abel decided to build a water treatment facility north of Perias.

Instead of adding chemicals, the new plant would use a sand filtration system to purify the water. Along with encouraging the populace to boil water for more than 30 minutes before drinking, this setup would prevent most illnesses.

Additionally, it would act as a safeguard against attempts to poison the city's water.

"Alright," Abel said aloud, his mind resolute. "Let's get to work."

Abel passed through the north gate of Perias alongside the laborers, his gaze drawn to the long aqueduct stretching from the lake at the mountain's base.

It must have been a magnificent sight when it was first built, yet now, years of wear had taken their toll.
