Chapter 176 Timber

This winter passed unusually slowly, and although the Ninth Duchy was located in the south, it could not avoid the invasion of winter.

In the usual cold winters, civilians would use firewood for warmth, which was cheaper than expensive magic arrays.

Just when the duke of the Seventh Duchy was waiting to be transferred to the Third Duchy, the western mountains ushered in the first snowstorm since the beginning of winter.

The goblin tribes of Goblin City, like ordinary civilians, are reluctant to use expensive flint for heating, and most of them also burn wood.

The Third Duchy of the United States, which is the largest exporter of timber, had a fire in the spring, and the timber that had been prepared for the winter was burned.

The United Duchy, the other principalities of the Nine Duchies, had only enough timber for their own use.

There was simply no ability to support the Seventh Duchy, and at the same time, the blizzard moved to the southeast.

The real cold winter is very terrible, have you ever seen the scene of people being killed by the fire in winter, there must not be.

Violet Ka, a citizen of the Seventh Duchy who had seen the blizzard continue to erupt, would never forget that his father had frozen to death by the fire on a bitter winter day.

To this day, Violet-Ka still has a deep hatred for the cold winter.

Therefore, since she became a duty officer, she took the initiative to apply for the transfer of the neighboring Seven Duchyes, and in the days to come, she rarely set foot in the land of her hometown.

Full of snow, led by the cold wind, constantly invaded the entire territory of the Seventh Duchy.

A short figure, standing on the streets of the town.

She is Violet Ka, a snowstorm is coming, all the shops are closed, all the houses are burning.

The old knight with the stump is a comrade-in-arms of Violet Ka's father, who is Violet Ka's uncle.

In the wooden house, it is not wood that burns, but dry thatch.

Pushing open the wooden house and looking at his one-armed uncle, Violet Ka's face was full of distress.

Thatch fills a room, but when it is burned, it will soon be consumed.

The one-armed uncle smiled when he saw Violet-Ka and hurriedly invited her into the house.

"Kid, you're finally back, come in, come in and bake the fire!"

Sitting by the fire, Violet-Ka looked at the thatch that filled the room and asked, "Uncle, how long do these burn?"

The one-armed uncle kept adding thatch to the fire, and was silent for a while before he spoke, "Don't look at so many, these can't burn for a few days!"

Violet Ka nodded silently and asked again, "Duke's Palace of the Seventh Duchy, didn't the wood be issued?"

The one-armed uncle let out a long sigh and said, "The Seventh Duchy consumes a huge amount of wood, and a goblin city alone is a literary number.

According to the third principality, since the timber of the third principality can no longer be supplied, the seventh principality can only eat the old capital.

You don't have to worry about this, usually, our seventh principality is all burned thatch.

Although it is not as good as wood, it can still be heated. ”

Violet-Ka thought to herself, she had scavenged the underground ore of the Empty Lin Essence City, and had a little reserve.

Leaving her uncle's cabin, Violet Ka went to the Chamber of Commerce of the Noble Alliance of the Neighboring Seven Duchies.

At this moment, the head of the Seventh Duchy, the Chamber of Commerce of the League of Nobles, has been replaced by Byzantium.

The deputy head of the Alliance, in order to avoid James Bond's pursuit, is to change places every two times.

Today, I happened to come to the neighboring Seven Duchy, and Byzantium looked at the black and oppressive snowstorm outside, and couldn't stop frowning.

asked the steward beside him, "With this kind of gas, will people freeze to death?"

The steward nodded, "You don't know anything about the alliance's vice president, every time after a snowstorm, many people die!"

It's something that can't be avoided. ”

Byzantium's expression moved, and he asked, "Then is the price of the wood we have in reserve going to rise?"

The steward shook his head and said, "The United Principality stipulates that once a snowstorm comes, all timber must be sold at cost price, and no price increase shall be allowed, otherwise all timber will be confiscated according to the price hike." ”

Byzantium looked at the empty reception hall, frowned, shook his head, and asked, "Why don't there be any guests?"

The steward said, "After the snowstorm comes, few people go out!"

However, listening to the Magician Guild next door, there are a lot of people. I don't know what they're doing. ”

Byzantium was curious and wanted to take a look, and just as he was about to walk to the door, he saw Violet Ka wearing the uniform of the Southeast Academy of Magic, swaggering in.

After waiting for the first guest for a while, Byzantium was full of loss.

Stopped the steward and said, "I'm here to entertain, you go and get busy!"

In the hall, there is only one steward, not even a waiter, and the only guest is Violet Ka, who has just stepped into the living room, what can the gentleman in charge do.

The Byzantines came up to Violet Ka and asked with a smile, "What do you want to buy, do you want candy?"

The Byzantine greasy hand reached into his arms and pulled out the candy wrapped in colored oiled paper.

This scene made Violet Ka laugh in her heart, this person actually regarded her as a child.

"I'm here to buy wood!" Violet Cadao.

Byzantium turned back to the steward and shouted, "Go, bring a bundle of wood, don't add water!"

Violet-Ka's heart trembled, this wood can still be added with water, "Can the wood with water be burned?"

Byzantium bent over and said like a child, "You don't know, this wood with water is burned." ”

"Then, I'll add water too!" Violet Kadow.

Byzantium looked stunned for a moment, and he explained, "Although it is boiled with water, it is not easy, and it is heavy and expensive, mainly!"

Byzantium continued, "Where do you live?"

Violet-Ka shook her head, not knowing how to answer.

The Templar can't, the Southeast Academy of Magic is too far away from here, no one believes it, the Seventh Duchy?

At this time, the steward brought over a bundle of wood, looked at Violet Ka's thin appearance, and frowned.

"You can't hold it!"

Seeing this, the Byzantines took the wood and said, "Tell me, where is your home, and I'll send it to you!"

Violet Ka is funny, this fat man has a heart.

"How much wood do you have, I want a lot!" Violet snapped, pulling a golden card from her bosom.

The Byzantines took the card and threw the wood to the ground. Asked.

"How much do you need?"

Violet Kadao, "How much you have, how much I want!"

Byzantium took Violet-Ka and went to the timber storehouse of the Seven Duchyes of the nobility.

In the huge underground storage space, there is only a small corner where it is placed.

Violet Ka pointed to a pile of lumber and said, "That's it, where can you hold out until the blizzard is over?"

Is there only such a little bit of wood left in your entire noble alliance?"

Byzantium turned to look at the steward, and the steward also sighed and said, "The Seventh Duchy has long been in winter, and it will not provide wood, these are the last!"

This warehouse, which covers an area of 110,000 fair, is now left with so much!"

Violet-Ka asked incredulously, "So, what about the timber from the other principalities?"

The steward shook his head and said, "The other principalities don't have a treasury for timber storage at all!"

Only the Seventh Duchy has it, that is, here, the entire United Duchy, the last bastion against this blizzard!"

fortress, Violet Ka looked at the wood in front of him and shook her head.

This is a sign that half of the citizens of the Seventh Duchy have froze to death!

"Are you just watching them die?" said Violet Ka, grimacing

Seeing this, Byzantium smiled slightly, "Child, what do you know?"

There's also the Magicians Association next door, and their heating magic array can also cope with the cold winter!"

The steward couldn't bear to puncture the ignorance of Byzantium, if the common people could use the magic array, then how could they come to buy wood, and how could they freeze to death at home.

Violet-Ka leaves the League of Nobles and heads for the Mage's Guild.

That's where she just came out, selling all the ore in exchange for wood, who knows, that's how it would be.

The Byzantines followed her closely, which made Violet Ka puzzled, "What are you doing with me?"

Byzantium said, "It's okay, just go to the Magicians' Guild and have a look!"

Stepping into the Wizards' Guild, the president personally received Violet-Ka.

And although Byzantium has only come to the alliance of the nobility of the Seven Duchyes for a while, it has already made several trips here.

"Lord, long time no see!" said Byzantium.

The president frowned, just this morning, I have seen him three times, and this is the fourth time.

"Lord Byzantium, the deputy head of the alliance, you are so idle!

You're okay, I'm okay. I'm going to entertain VIPs, but I don't have the time to take care of you!"

The president pushed Byzantium out of the door of his office, and pushed Byzantium directly out of the door.

Only then did he tidy up his clothes and said respectfully to Violet Ka, "You are looking for me, what do you need, just ask, as long as I can do it, I will definitely not shirk it!"

Violet Ka asked, "Is there a magic array for heating! I need a large magic array, the kind that can cover the entire main city!"

The elder was stunned for a moment, and his expression froze, "If you have that magic array, you can also give me a set, are you kidding?"

This type of heating magic array, it can only be activated by consuming top-grade ore!

The large ones, covering the entire main city, I'm afraid that even if they consume elemental crystals, they can't bring them up!"

Violet-Ka asked, "Elder Shwiitus, do you know him, and where is he now?"

The president said with a serious face, "Elder Xu Weitus, he should be in the Ninth Duchy, anyway, he hasn't been back to the headquarters recently!"

Do you know Elder Shweits?"

Violet-Ka's serious, resolute eyes revealed a sense of war.

"I don't believe it, I can't help it!"

One step out, blending into the golden light, made the president of the Magician Association stunned.

After a while, he came back to his senses, and the door of the office was opened by Byzantium, and he showed his big head and asked, "Where did that girl go just now?"

The chairman looked at the fat oily head, shook his head and said, "You better take care of it, that girl's identity is not ordinary, just like you, it's better to make less trouble!"

The Byzantines pushed the door open and walked over with their heads held high, "What's wrong with me like this?

The Ninth Duchy is also now snowing heavily, and there are also signs of a blizzard.

At this moment, Elder Xu Weitus was in the headquarters building of the Ninth Duchy, drinking and chatting with the dwarven patriarch Oak.

Looking at Violet Ka, who suddenly broke in, both of them were slightly stunned.

After asking what he meant, Elder Xu Weitus shook his head and said, "It's impossible, covering the entire main city, that consumption, even if you use elemental crystals, you can't withstand it!"

I'll give you an analogy, take a sacred-level magician, his magic core, can unleash magic spells, covering the magic of the entire main city.

However, how long can it last? At most, the core of the magic array will collapse, and although the sacred-level core will not be damaged, it will only be the activation key.

That is to say, unless the sacred-level core is used as the core of the magic array, otherwise, what kind of magic array cannot cover the entire main city!

And the sacred-level core follows the will of the sacred-level magician, which means that there is no such magic array!"

"Then there is no way? The blizzard in the Seventh Duchy has been going on for a while, and the wood for heating has been exhausted.

Could it be that you just watched them freeze to death?"

Oak looked serious and said, "This is the meaning, before winter, a fire broke out in the Third Duchy, and after winter, wood is in short supply."

There is no way around it, and all we can do is wait for the snowstorm to pass, go to each of the cabins, and collect their bodies.

Gently wipe those who don't close their eyes with the palm of your hand and cover him!"

Violet Ka's heart trembled, "Don't talk nonsense, I'll find a way!"

After Violet Ka left, Oak shook his head and said, "Three, as long as the blizzard lasts for three, those civilians won't be able to hold on!"

Three, where to find a way to go, unless she is God, God, or make it!"

Monton interjected at this time, "In the biblical records, the nuns of the Holy Seven Magic Sisters of their temple are both envoys and gods!"

Oak shook his head in disbelief, "I don't believe in the Bible!"

He took out his hammer and continued, "I only trust my hammer!"

Elder Xu Wittes looked at the back of Violet Ka leaving, got up and said, "The two of you sit slowly, I have to try it too, although the possibility is not high, but what if it succeeds!"

To study the magic circle, in the entire United Principality, the Wizards Association, Elder Xu Weitus, that is an absolute master.

Compared to Elder Klado of the Academy of Magic, it can be said that they are equal.

Klado is currently in the secret research laboratory of the Third Duchy, delving into the research of large warships, and he has no time to study any magic arrays for heating.

The headquarters of the Wizards' Guild, the private castle of the Sylvites family, in an underground laboratory.

Elder Xu Weitus sat in the underground palace, the white countless magic arrays were entwined with each other, and their complexity was comparable to that of the stars.

The core flowed, the white light shone brightly, and Elder Xu Weitus was in this shining front, constantly walking, carefully observing the flickering of every core, the flow of every trace of mana.

The Temple, Violet-Ka, in the name of the Sacred Seven, convenes the Council of the Sacred Seven.

In the chamber, ask for help from all the Divine Sevens.

However, the holy seven of the temple are invincible in battle, and for this thing, it is not at school at all

Among them, Violet-Ka looked at the Half Moon and Tangyuan-Tumin, and her eyes went straight to Mars.

"Both of you are fire attribute magic nuns, you should be able to cast a sacred-level magic spell and cover the entire main city, right?" Violet Ka asked expectantly.

Tang Yuan-Tu Min and Half Moon glanced at each other, and Half Moon spoke, "It's no problem to cover it, but with the power of sacred-level magic, once it is cast, it will destroy the entire main city in an instant."

That's not to warm them, it's to burn them to death!"

Tang Yuan-Tumin also said, "We understand your feelings, but we can't do anything about the Seventh Duchy!"

With the power of sacred-level magic, take the Nine Yang Split Sky, and under the red light, steel will turn into water, not to mention people!

It's not going to work!"

Violet Ka's face was lost, and among the Divine Seven, Martin Paruru's confused face had a hint of a smile.

"Isn't the southern mountainous region of the Ninth Duchy full of jungles?

Chop it all, and the wood will be gone!"

Martin Paluru's smile made all the Divine Seven tremble, if they dared to cut down the jungle that the elves had worked so hard to cultivate, the elves would not dare to fight for them.

Violet Ka slapped the table, got up and said, "Just do it, there's no better way now!"

The two Divine Sevens, Martin Paluru and Violet Ka, left their seats.

The corners of Half Moon's mouth twitched, looking at the many Divine Sevens, she couldn't stop shaking her head, and said, "If others ask, we can only deny it!"

The Ninth Duchy, the Duke's Palace, the Duke of the Ninth Duchy, has long been in love with the jungles in the southern mountains.

The jungle is dense and grows unusually thick under the irrigation of the fountain of life.

To the secret forces of the Ninth Duchy, which has to be mentioned, the werewolf god figure once held the position.

He used to be the leader of the guards of criminals who had been exiled to the Jungle of Warcraft in the Ninth Duchy.

There are countless such leaders on the border of the Warcraft Jungle in the Ninth Duchy.

Gather such a group of people, go to the southern mountains, and cut down trees.

This is what the Duke of the Ninth Duchy did secretly when the heavy snow invaded the Ninth Duchy.

You have to ask, why does the Ninth Duchy rely on the Warcraft Jungle and don't go there to cut down trees.

You must know that the jungle of monsters, monsters are everywhere, any bed bug can kill people, and no one dares to go there, it can only be a place where famous magicians can set foot.

Once the duke of a country makes a move, it is ruthless.

When Violet Ka and Martin Paluru stepped into the southern mountains, they saw that half of the southern mountains had become bare.

Pandora, the elder of the elven clan, sat alone on the top of the mountain, looking at Martin Paruru and Violet Ka, his face full of resentment.

"What are you doing here?" asked Pandora, a frown.

Violet-Ka looked out at the dense jungle of the southern mountains, and on the other side of the dividing line in the middle, there was not a single cherry tree

"What's going on? It's like this, it's like this!"

Pandora snorted coldly, "Don't pretend to be confused here, it's not your Terran who did it!"

Do you know how much effort I put into some flowers and trees, and I didn't look at it!

You've cut it down like this! You give me back my tree!"

Pandora actually got up, pounced, and held a cane, and was about to hit someone.

Martin Paruru frowned, disappeared in place in an instant, appeared behind Pandora, slapped her, and knocked her unconscious.

Pointing to the dense half of the jungle, he said, "Use magic to send them all to the Seventh Duchy!"

The entire southern mountainous area, hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land, most of which are hills, for Violet Kalai, she does not have the right of the duke, she can mobilize so many people.

"Teacher, how long will this go?"

Martin Paluru threw Pandora to the ground.

"Let you usually practice magic more, you don't listen, when it's time to use it, you're dumbfounded!

Look at me!"

A red figure, straight into the sky, above the sky, layer upon layer of clouds.

Martin Paluru stood with his hands in his hands, looking out at the southern mountains underground, constantly raising his heights.

It was not until he was able to take the whole southern mountainous area, looking at the whole of the country, that he stopped the colonel

Stretching out his fingers, he gestured to the size of the southern mountains.

The black dark element, from high in the sky, directly covered half of the southern mountainous area.

Half of the sky was dark, and the earth shook, and it trembled, trembled, and suddenly there was a loud pop.

He farted to the ground, and Violet-Ka could feel the air vibrate as far as she went.

Martin Paluru, who was high in the sky, sent out a magic array covering half of the southern mountains in his palm, and pressed it down directly with his head down.

The magic array, swirling down from the headspace, covering half of the southern mountainous area, slowly faded.

Revealing a dense jungle, every tree was wrapped in dark elements, and other things, including the hills of Gao Song, those that were not protected by dark elements.

All exposed to the attack of the magic array, there was a loud boom, and I couldn't stop trembling.

Half of the southern mountainous area was directly flattened by Martin Paluru with one palm.

At a glance, the trees wrapped in dark elements disappeared.

The hills of the southern mountains, gone!

The dust and fog dissipated, and the land of more than 100,000 miles was filled with black smoke.

Flat, vast, this land, turned into a plain.

If your eyesight is good enough, you may be able to see the South China Sea hundreds of thousands of miles away.

However, the darkness is enchanting, full of dark elements, and the scorched black land is afraid that nothing will grow in the future.

At this time, Pandora in Violet Ka's arms woke up slowly, looking at the plain in front of her, the land with black smoke, Pandora's eyes widened.

Rubbing his eyes vigorously, he looked incredulous, "This, what about my jungle, where did you get my jungle?"

Martin Paluru stood in the midst of the charred earth, covered in black ash and dust, with a confused face smiling, looking at the flat earth and nodding incessantly.

"Well, yes, it looks much more pleasing to the eye!"

Pandora ran up to Martin Paluru, threw herself on her knees on the black earth, and wept bitterly, "My jungle, where have you been!"

You demon girl, return me the jungle, return my hills!"

Holding Martin Paluru's legs with both hands, Martin Paluru slapped a palm on the top of Pandora's head.

This time Pandora learned wisely, and her cane stopped Martin Paruru's palm.

"Hehe, do you think that if you knock you unconscious once, I will give you a chance?

You two don't want to leave today!"

Martin Paluru's palm pressed against Pandora's cane, and his palm became a grasp and grabbed the cane.

Take it in front of you and look at it carefully, "This stick is good!"

Poor Pandora, kicked away by Martin Paluru and lost her cane.

Martin Paruru stepped out and walked up to Violet Ka and pulled her into the black formation.

Pandora was in a hurry, grabbed the corner of Violet Ka's coat, and tore off a piece of the back badge of the Southeast Academy of Magic.

The Seventh Duchy, near each of the main cities, was filled with countless pieces of wood, all of which had been sent by Martin Paluru.

Civilians, you can finally have a warm winter.

This allowed Violet-Ka to finally put her mind at ease and return to the temple to thank her teacher again.

"Thank you, teacher!"

As soon as Violet-Ka finished, he felt the earth tremble, and the epicenter seemed to come from the first main city, the Holy Pump Fort.

The First Duchy, the First Main City, the Holy Pump Fort, and the ancient castle of the Xuwittes family all collapsed, and a palm stretched out from the ruins.
