Waking up from a vague dream, Thor suddenly felt like he didn't know where he was.

Subconsciously turned his head and looked left and right, and his intermittent thinking gradually converged.

The little shiitake mushroom seems to have a nightmare, no wonder she was strangled by her and faintly breathless. Breaking the arm that hugged her neck and smoothing her slightly furrowed brow, Thor put his head back on the pillow.

There was silence all around, and the cold wind and snow of winter outside seemed to have stopped for a while, leaving only an ethereal silence.

It's winter again, and I'm seventeen years old before I know it, Saul thought with some emotion in the dark.

After wrapping Beth tightly in a silkworm chrysalis back and forth with a blanket, Thor got up and dressed, pushed open the door and walked out, bypassing the cold fire that had long since been extinguished.

It's not quiet outside, white snow is falling silently from the sky, like sand in an hourglass.

Thor took two hot breaths with his hands in his hands, then tightened his collar and walked through the snow towards the night watchman.

The snow on the roads is cleared every day, so it doesn't pile up, and you can't leave it on the roofs to prevent the roof from crushing. Even if Thor doesn't talk about these ordinary little things, the leaders will do it themselves, after all, it is their own life.

Tonight's vigil is Sean, the former first-order hunter of Tide Village, who has now become a squad leader and has officially entered the management of the territory. For such a small thing as the vigil, Stant and Diller have rarely participated in and interrogated, and have completely withdrawn from the matter.

"Lord Lord!" suddenly saw Thor, and the two night watchmen standing by the campfire and stomping their feet were a little excited.

"What's the matter?" Thor waved his hand, then patted them on the shoulder.

"Not for the time being, the recent wind and snow have been big and small, and I feel like the whole world is asleep, and it is calm. Sean replied.

Thor looked back to the left and right, then went back to the distribution point to get an iron pot and set it up on the campfire for the vigil. Soon some steaming simple cooked food was ready, and Thor found a tray to divide the food into portions and serve it to the brothers who were on the night watch.

"This ...... How dare you bother the lord, and this drink, I'm afraid it's not suitable for me to be in my post now, right?" Sean stared at the food and drinks on the tray, subconsciously thinking that the lord was testing himself.

"It's okay, I just can't sleep, I'll accompany you to finish this shift in a while. I'll take the lead in making an exception tonight, but I can't make a rule in the future, so come on, drink some warmth. Have a glass of good wine, and take a few sips if it doesn't work. Thor smiled.

Now the settlement has expanded a lot, and soon the circle is over, and the brothers who are keeping vigil are flattered and grateful, and no one dares to get drunk, not even slightly drunk. But for the easy-going style of the lord, there is a closer understanding.

Thor leaned against the guardrail with the vat, asking Sean if he had any appeals.

"There are no adults, life is already very good now, this is the most down-to-earth and peaceful winter I have ever had, and it is also the most stable period of time in my memory for more than 20 years. Sean's answer was unpretentious.

After a rough conversation, Thor went to the goblin to have a look.

They had moved out of the barn, and then the territory provided the timber to make these little things home on the left side of the territory, and they were pretty disciplined in all respects.

However, Thor really didn't appreciate their architectural style, and the small wooden thatched huts, although neatly arranged according to the requirements, looked like some ...... Slightly larger kennels.

It may be that they have suffered too much in previous years, and now in the territory, the work enthusiasm of the goblins is far more fanatical than that of the people, but their small bodies can't do much.

Ostensibly, the goblins are currently slaves in the territory, and some work can be forced if necessary. However, in terms of life, Thor did not treat them too badly.

They also have meritorious deeds, and they are very respectful of the meritorious system, although they can only obtain half or even a fraction of the merits of the official subjects for doing the same thing, but they are still enthusiastic.

Originally, Thor was not prepared to include the alien race in the merit system, because it was unnecessary, and it would increase the workload on Beth's side. Even if they take off their slave hats one day because of their performance, it is impossible to absorb them into real lords, and it is enough to give a superficial name.

But Beth still meticulously entered each goblin into the merit list, claiming that this would be beneficial to management after all.

Since his own woman is so supportive, Thor can only work with Beth to simply enter the information of each goblin without being too cumbersome, and he also understands a lot of strange names such as "roots" and "hair balls" of the goblins.

All in all, the territory is now quite stable in all aspects and is developing in an orderly manner.

Thor stayed with him from midnight until the next morning, and then carefully prepared a breakfast.

After getting up and Beth, she washed up, Saul pulled her to the table and hugged her in his arms, and the two of them shared a meal one bite at a time.

"Today you are optimistic about your home, I will go out to get a batch of food and come back. Thor gave one last instruction.

"Then be careful, do you need me to come with you?" Beth wiped Thor's mouth with a napkin.

"No, it's fast, it's just a day back and forth, and it's not fun to be cold everywhere in the cold. Thor hugged Beth and kissed him, then returned to his bedroom to open the door to the secret realm of the reincarnation dungeon.

After a warm break in the dungeon, Thor casually found someone else's door and came to a new place.

The door to this secret realm opened in an empty civilian building.

Leaving the dwelling, Thor judged from the surrounding buildings and the density of lights that this should be the main city of a certain territory, and it was quite prosperous. That's enough, I'm just here to buy some food.

Scott's hands tucked into his burlap robe, he was standing under the low eaves and stamping his feet back and forth, his slightly bulging eyes scurrying through the sparse pedestrians on the street, and he might not have gained much today.

Looking up at the snowstorm, he licked the two slightly sharp fangs on the side of his lips, and then subconsciously rubbed his stomach under the long cloth robe. Thinking about the few copper coins in his hand, where to go for a cheap lunch in a while.

Inadvertently looking up, he saw a figure in a black coat coming out of a cold alleyway.

"Hello, my lord, you don't seem to be from this city, do you?" Scott cautiously approached the past, bowing his head slightly respectfully, not daring to walk too fast, lest he leave a bad impression on the other party.

Obviously, the focus is not on whether it is or not, but just to create an opportunity for conversation.

"I'm not from this city, what's the matter with you?" Thor nodded cooperatively as he looked at the greenskin, which was slightly taller than the goblin.

In fact, Thor saw him when he walked out of the alleyway, after all, he was covered in dark green complexion, with a smooth head, and two very long pointed ears on both sides of his head, and it was not easy to see him on the sparsely populated street.

This is a dwarf goblin of the first order.

"My lord, I don't know if there's anything you need a villain to do for you?" whether it's delivering letters, running errands, guiding, or providing some scattered news......" Perhaps sensing that Thor's tone was not too harsh, Scott began to whisper about his business.

Thor instantly realized that it was still a goblin in the middle of winter, begging for a living on the streets.

"I'm passing through here, maybe buying a batch of grain. Saul said flatly.

"There are two markets in the city, but they are not very lively in winter. If it's a bulk of food, the price and stock in Dongcheng should be more suitable, can you allow Xia to lead the way?" asked Scott, a little humblely.

Thor didn't refuse, and raised his chin into the street.

"Come, my lord, please follow me. Scott's eyes flashed with delight, then he held out a hand to invite, and when Thor moved, he trotted two steps to the distance slightly ahead of Thor to his left.

You can't walk in front of the guests, it's too overstepping, and it's not okay to walk side by side. Not to mention not walking behind the guests, it will make the guests feel uncomfortable because of the psychological security, Scott obviously has his own business principles.

Thor silently experienced all the tiny details, and found this goblin very interesting.

Along the way, Scott was in a respectful tone, introducing Sol to the local attractions, food, gold caves, and even the division of local forces, obviously familiar with the city.

As long as you bring enough money to buy food, it is actually a simple matter.

Soon the price was negotiated, and Thor waved his hand to collect the grain into the ring, not avoiding the eyes of Scott and the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper was slightly shocked and then calmed, apparently having seen some of the world, and Scott may have had some guesses, but just kept silent.

After wandering around the sober bazaar and finding nothing interesting, Thor prepares to leave.

"Are you alone?" Thor suddenly asked a strange question at the corner of the street.

"Originally, I had two companions, and I left my hometown to find something specific to do. Later, he resold some groceries in the secret realm, and was repaired by a few adventurers, and the two companions failed to survive. ”

Scott's tone didn't show much resentment, just pulling open his burlap robe to show the scars on the back of his shoulder blades to corroborate what he said.

"Those adventurers...... Is it human?" asked Thor.

"Yes, oh, my lord, I'm sorry, I'm not slandering humanity. Scott replied subconsciously, and then hurriedly added with some panic.

"How do you usually charge?" Thor changed the question, serving Scott's lead in the way.

"It's okay, my lord, just give me some copper coins. Or you don't have to break the bank at all, I'm honored to serve you, and I just hope that the next time you pass through the city, you will remember the villain and choose the villain's service. Scott bowed politely.

Thor twisted a silver coin out of his two fingers and handed it to Scott, then deliberately loosened his fingertips, and the silver coin rolled into the snow.

"Sorry, my hand slipped. Saul explained.

"No, my lord, thank you for your reward, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Scott saluted, without the slightest resentment in his eyes, and then turned and carefully picked up the coin and blew the snow foam and dust on the surface.

Before he could turn around, Scott suddenly heard a word behind him that would later change the fate of his life.

"Boy, I think you're good, come with me, I'll take you to a free place. ”
