Chapter 39: Bad News

In the next half month, all the residents of the town took action. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info Under Randolph's leadership, the town has stocked up on enough fish for the winter. Briss and Arlene learned a series of processes of iron-making under Snow's special training, and commanded everyone to smelt a lot of iron. The iron will be sent to the blacksmith shop as soon as possible, and handed over to Gerosan and others to make all kinds of weapons, and then armed patrols and convoys.

And under Snow's leadership, the residents of the whole town have joined the fitness bandwagon, exercising every morning and evening. Of course, there are also various ways to exercise. There are switchbacks, push-ups, and sit-ups.

Snow also set aside a field with simple barbells made of wooden poles and stones, as well as dumbbells of various weights made of pig iron. Even older people like Randolph do radio gymnastics several times a day.

While training for speed, endurance, and explosiveness. The patrols and convoys also practice swordsmanship every day under the leadership of Abra. Twenty new members of the archery team practice archery with Mandasen every day.

In the past, the big guys didn't dare to waste their physical strength, because there was not enough food, and consuming physical strength would undoubtedly increase the amount of food. But now you don't have to be afraid, the big fish you have caught have been hung all over the house, and everyone can eat every meal with confidence and boldness.

After more than half a month of training, the combat effectiveness of the residents of Luke Town has been greatly improved.

However, Snow is feeling the pressure increasing, and over this time, more and more beasts have traveled to and from Rook Town. Although some of the small beasts were driven back by the four big beasts in front of the town, as the number increased, the deterrent power of the four large beasts was obviously decreasing.

Just the day before yesterday, a group of extremely hungry small beasts dared to openly challenge the Wild Wolf King and the Deep Forest Tiger. As the saying goes, two fists are hard to beat four hands, and a good man can't stand a lot of people. These small beasts, if they were really desperate, were also fierce and terrifying. At that time, if it wasn't for Elena controlling the black panther and the man-bear to drive over, it was really unknown who would win and who would lose.

The worst thing is that the time when the beast appears now tends to be more and more daylight. And Elena can't control the panther all day, she also needs to rest and recover her mana. So during the day, when the panthers are not there, they can only rely on the inhabitants themselves to resist the beasts. The wall to the north of the town has not had time to be strengthened and heightened, which is very dangerous. Now, the low-lying sandy soil is almost completely frozen, and it would be a waste of time to dig again to build a wall.

Snow sat at the wooden table in his first-floor living room, frowning and thinking about what to do.

There was a knock on the door, and Snow looked up and said, "Please come in." ”

The wooden door was pushed open, and a shadow appeared outside the door, it was Yalian. At this time, Yalian had already changed into a civilian costume similar to Briss, and compared to the depressed black robe, she looked much more sunny and cheerful, "Mayor Town, did you hear Briss say that you are looking for me?" ”

"Didn't I say it, it's better for you to call me Snow in private, I'm not used to hearing the mayor." Snow said with a smile.

"I'm sorry, I'm used to it." Yalian stuck out her tongue cutely, and in order not to arouse the suspicion of others in the town, she always followed everyone and called Snow the mayor of the town.

"It's not a good habit for me." Snow smiled evilly and said, "Actually, you can also call me Brother Snow like Briss." I'll be happy that way. ”

"That's not good, I'm about the same age as you." Arrene entered the house and closed the door, because Snow and Arlene were from the same year, but he couldn't remember what his birthday was. So Yalene has always refused to admit that she is younger than Snow, and sometimes jokes, and she often asks Snow to call her sister.

"I can also see from the looks of the two of us, I must be older than you." Snow touched his face and pretended to be old.

Arlene smiled, and without arguing with Snowdo, came to the table and sat down, and asked, "Do you have anything to do with me?" ”

"It's okay, I can't look for you." Snow took something from his waist and put it in front of Yalian, "Oh, let's see if you like it?" ”

Yalian looked down and saw that it was a fine dagger. The shell is delicately carved with patterns, and the handle is inlaid with a red oval stone.

"It's beautiful." Yalian's eyes lit up, picked up the dagger and slowly pulled it out, it turned out to be made of gold and iron stone, the bright white blade presented a perfect streamline, reflecting a dazzling white light, looking carefully, you could even see the appearance of herself reflected in the blade. Moreover, there was a moderately shallow blood groove on the knife body, and Ya Lian noticed that under the reverse side of the handle, there were several small words engraved with her name.

"Is this for me?" Yalian asked in surprise.

"Of course, do you like it?" Snow leaned back and asked with a smile on his face, even though he had designed the dagger with beauty. But I have to say that Gerosan's forging technology is quite okay.

"I like it so much, this is the most precious gift I have ever received, thank you Snow." Yalian said happily, not to mention the perfect shape of the dagger, just because it is made of gold, iron and stone, it is precious enough.

"If you like it, it's fine." Snow nodded, "By the way, there is another one here, you help me give it to Elena, which is a welcome gift from Rook Town." ”

Snow took out a dagger from his waist as he spoke, although this dagger did not have many patterns, but the shape was more flamboyant, which was very in line with Elena's wild temperament.

"Why don't you give it to Sister Elena yourself? She'll be happy. Arrene asked curiously.

"Come on, you still don't know Elena's attitude towards me." Snow smiled bitterly and said, "If I give it to her personally, she will definitely say that I am playing some kind of ghost again." For some reason, Elena got along well with all the townspeople, but she was always on guard and suspicious when it came to Snow.

"Okay, then I'll thank you for Sister Elena." Looking at Snow's wry smile, the corners of Yalian's mouth couldn't help but rise upward.

At this moment, the wooden door was pushed open, and another shadow walked in.

Snow didn't need to look to know that it must be Elena. There is only one person in the entire Rook Town who dares to break in directly without knocking.

"Huh? Yalian, why are you here? Elena asked, confused.

"Sister Elena, what do you think this is?" Arlene stood up and handed the dagger to Elena with a smile on her face.

"What a beautiful dagger, where did you get it?" Elena took the dagger and asked happily.

"Snow gave it to us, do you like it?" Yalian gestured to her dagger and asked with a smile.

"Oh, you sent it?" Elena's expression instantly turned cold, and she looked at Snow and said, "Giving us such a valuable gift for no reason, are you playing with some kind of ghost idea?" ”

"I knew it." Snow muttered in his heart and shook his head helplessly.

"Sister Elena, Snow was kind enough to give us a gift, how can you say that about him." Yalene fought for Snow.

"You little girl, why do you keep talking to him." Elena glanced at Yalian, looked at the dagger in her hand, and said to Snow, "Okay, for Yalian's sake, I will reluctantly accept this dagger." ”

Snow rolled his eyes depressedly, he gave her a gift, and he had to dip it in Yalian's light, what kind of thing is this.

Elena took the dagger to her waist and said, "Since I have received your gift, I will tell you one...... Bad news. ”

Snow almost fell out of his chair, accepted his gift, and told himself the bad news, which is typical of revenge.
