Chapter 303: Midnight Shadow

"Bang ~ bang. "The knock wasn't heavy, but it was loud enough for the people in the room to hear.

"Who?" after two knocks, an answer was heard from inside the room.

"I, Thor. Thor rubbed his frozen palms and sighed.

After a few moments, the door opened silently, seemingly under regular maintenance, revealing Stant's resentful lizardman pupils.

There is a kind of person who will fall into madness when his sleep is disturbed, and Stant is clearly that kind of person. The point is that he was busy getting out of bed just now, and he accidentally stepped on his wife's tail, causing him to be kicked twice by his wife.

Seeing Saul return safely, Stant didn't say anything, and a man's friendship is never in nonsense.

The two looked at each other affectionately through the door frame for a moment.

"Ha, it's so cold now, I've gotten some cooked food and I'm going to get you a drink or two. Seeing that Staunt was ready to explode on the spot, Thor felt that it was unlikely that he would be able to drink with him. But now that the door has been knocked, the conversation must be finished.

"Okay, wait until I bring my twin knives. Staunt gave Thor a deep look, then turned and went inside.

Thor took the opportunity to escape, he came to find someone to drink because he couldn't sleep, but he didn't come to find someone to learn from him.

Standing at the crossroads of the streets, Thor shook off the snowflakes from his body.

The street lamp stolen from Byron Bian still shone brightly on the side of the road, but the light turned pale in the snowstorm. There seems to be a week or two left in this cold winter, and when the snow and ice melt, the dark calendar year 719 is about to come to an end.

Tightening his collar, Thor turned and disappeared into the street.

"Bang~Bang" There was another knock on the door somewhere in the territory.

"Who?" the people in the room were clearly sleeping lightly, or rather alert.

"Rose, open the door. Saul pinched his nose and squeezed out a female voice.

There was an instant rush of chickens and dogs jumping in the room, and there seemed to be the sound of the basin being trampled over.

Then the door opened violently, and the moment it opened, Thor caught a glimpse of Diller's deliberate trimming of his short grassy hair.

Adjusting to his best appearance, Diller looked up affectionately.

After seeing Saul, Diller was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously looked behind Thor, but unfortunately there was only the cold wind whistling away with snowflakes on the street, how could there be Rose's graceful figure.

Diller's smile froze instantly, and a bitter feeling appeared in his mouth.

He suddenly remembered that Rose had reached the bottleneck of the second order, and had fallen into a deep sleep and pushed open the door of the promotion, and Beth had arranged for a careful old woman to take care of her, how could she come and knock on her door without sleeping in the middle of the night.

"Come in and say. His cheeks twitched a few times, but Diller shook his head helplessly.

The dwarf was obviously good-tempered, and he was not violent when his sleep was disturbed, and Thor was satisfied.

Everything in the house was ordinary, and it looked like most civilians.

Although he had always known Diller's address, this was the first time Thor had come to the door, and everyone had long been accustomed to discussing anything in the lord's mansion, after all, there was everything from service and food.

"You just live here?" Thor asked casually.

"When you're alone, you can do anything. Diller lit the candle and dragged the table and small round stool to the center of the room.

Diller's words, Saul agreed.

Put steaming food and drinks on the table, which Thor had just made himself in the kitchen of the Lord's Mansion.

"Bang~bang" Soon the door was slammed again, and Stint squeezed in amid Diller's curses.

"Shorty, you can't even afford a fireplace, is it any wonder that no woman looks up to you?" Stant habitually stabbed first, then crouched down by a random stone pit in the room, lit the fire, and threw a few pieces of wood into it.

The three of them sat down at the table and raised their glasses first.

"I may have fallen under the curse of not being able to sleep, so after tossing my own shiitake mushrooms, I will toss you by the way. Saul talked about the reason for the night's drink, and told his comrades at the table that it was just a small talk, not a job.

"Is it a big deal?" Staunt and Diller were a little speechless after listening to Thor's words, but what else could they do if everyone was woken up? Can't sleep? This curse may sound dangerous.

"I don't know for the time being, but let's wait tomorrow to see how much it affects my body and energy. Thor waved his hand.

Although I don't talk about work, I will inevitably come back to the topic when we talk about it.

The situation in the territory is similar to Thor's prediction, the cold winter will make people become lazy and stiff, and keeping warm is the focus of life, so the territory is calm all winter.

In addition to their respective fields, in their spare time in winter, Stant and Diller have never stopped entering the secret realm to experience themselves. Now the two of them have touched the threshold of the fourth order and are standing in front of the gate of the promotion level.

"That's a good thing, leave your business to me then, but when are you going to go?" I suggest you go to bed after the spring war, and pull out the Hollowell nail first. Thor raised his glass and touched the two of them.

It took nearly eight months to promote the third-order to the fourth-order Thor, but this could not be used as a reference. After all, everyone's path to promotion may not be the same, so the time required to advance will inevitably be different, in short, the two of them will still need a few months.

"We also think so, we must sweep away the surrounding crisis before we leave. Stant and Diller replied.

Advancement has always been a heavy topic, and even if it is occasionally mentioned at the wine table, the three of them can only try not to think about what has failed. If it fails, there is no after.

"By the way, where is your beloved Rose?" Thor smiled and looked at Diller, asking where Rose was doing.

She had fallen asleep early and pushed open the door to the third order. Diller scratched his head, a look of worry and irritation.

"Actually, I don't think you women need to let them fight to the death. If it's obviously not worth losing anyone because of promotion, there's just something a man can do. Thor spoke his mind, and he did the same with his shiitake mushrooms.

"I don't want her to go either! But she seems to want to compete with me in terms of strength, and I can't help it. Diller looked helpless.

"It's not that complicated on my side, the lizardmen race has always been martial, and it has been engraved in the blood and bones. If the two of them die in the ranks, then I'll change to another one. Staunt waved his hand domineeringly.

At present, Stant's two ladies have second-order strength, and they will be driven to the dungeon by Stint to fend for themselves if they have nothing to do.

In the face of Stante's very manly emotional attitude, Saul and Diller could only look up speechlessly.

On this cold winter night, many people were persecuted by the 'sleepless' Thor, who was called up to play in the middle of the night.

After that, Thor's sleep seemed to be restored, and everyone gradually stopped worrying.

But Thor didn't tell anyone, it turned out that it was really a curse, and it was always there. Every two or three days, this inability to sleep would pop up, or it would be the case for two days in a row, keeping him awake at night.

So every sleepless night comes, Thor can only silently hide in his room to read and study, or run to the secret realm to collect demon souls.

When he got used to it, Thor still thought it was a good curse.

Because he counted all year round, it seems that he has invisibly lived a few months longer than others, which is undoubtedly very worthwhile. If you live a hundred years, you will actually be sleeping, and this third is held by Saul.

What really worries Thor is that sleep is strictly a biological need, like eating and drinking.

If you don't get enough sleep, you are likely to be mentally depressed and eventually overwhelmed. But at the moment Thor did not notice the drawbacks of this, and the next day he was still awake, as if he did not need to sleep by nature.

Thor never believed in anything good in the world, so he suspected that he was probably overdrawing his life for the rest of his life. Although there is no basis for this statement for the time being, who can tell?

After spending the night at the wine table with Staunt and Diller, he finally made it to the next day.

Early in the morning, Thor hurried back to the Lord's Mansion to prepare a loving breakfast for a nest of shiitake mushrooms.

The main thing is that Ygrete has just joined Thor's evil camp, and this Queen Majesty must be served. The thought of an endless array of fly spells and random teleportation scrolls in front of him in the future made Thor's eyes as bright as fireflies.

The first to get up were the two little maids, Andor and Fenki, who were very happy to see Thor come back safely, but seeing that the lord had snatched his errand again, the two sprouts launched a thousand duck skills around Thor again.

Thor was so noisy that all he could do was the quacking of ducks, so he had to take care of the mushrooms. Of course, Saul did not forget to remind them that Iglit in the second room should focus on taking care of them, so that they can show the best etiquette and service.

By the time Thor came to the table with the food, everyone was there, but the atmosphere was a little weird.

Beth and Petty sat on one side of the table, and Ygrit and the two sprouts sat on the other.

The three shiitake mushrooms were silly at each other, and they all had unnatural smiles on their faces. After all, it was the first time everyone had met, and they were not familiar with each other for the time being, and they didn't know what to say for a while after the greeting they should have, so they could only maintain a polite smile.

Thor's arrival diluted the atmosphere.

"Maybe you can wait until your face stiffens before you eat, I don't mind. Thor said to the three shiitake mushrooms who were still giggling.

He handed two sandwiches to the two sprouts, pulled Andor and Fincki into his camp to avoid being attacked by the mushrooms at the table, and then began to pour milk for the crowd.

The bread hasn't changed much, but Thor has replaced the filling with a special honey roast today.

At present, the mushrooms have taken off their disguises and started to compete. Ygrete was a little restrained, after all, she hadn't really experienced this kind of family atmosphere, but Saul didn't think it was a big problem, and she would soon get used to it.

It's a pity that Thor still underestimated the integration of the shiitake mushrooms, and by the time they were talking with hot milk, the three shiitake mushrooms had already chatted in a bunch, and the battle line unanimously began to denounce Thor for not sleeping last night, and gave him the nickname 'Midnight Shadow'.

Even Beth is no longer caring, apparently she was spoiled by Petty's stinky shiitake mushrooms.
