Chapter 126: Cold
Thinking of the letter from the Great Lord, and watching Norris look at him with concern, Locke lowered his head, not daring to meet her gaze. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
He walked over to the table and sat down, grabbed the steaming milk, drank it, and gulped down the pie.
There was a noise as the chair was pulled away and Norris sat down.
Locke looked up and saw that the elf girl was fiddling with the ends of her blonde hair boringly.
Locke was also speechless for a while, so he had to bow his head and eat breakfast.
"Are the soldiers resistant to our plans to go out for training?" Locke struggled for a moment to break the silence in the room.
"There will be some complaints, after all, it is almost the Winter Veil Festival, and the soldiers also want to relax themselves." Norris tossed through her hair and said lightly, "After all, not everyone is like you, who takes Lordaeron's affairs to their heart. ”
Locke shoved a few pieces of pie from the plate into his mouth and drank the cup of hot milk in one gulp. He stood up, wiped his mouth with the towel behind his chair, and said.
"Come with me." He walked to the door and picked up his cloak on the hanger. Norris walked up, took the cloak and brought it to his chest, tying it around his neck.
"Go to Legion Headquarters, we're going to get to an end to it quickly, we can't wait any longer here. Otherwise, the morale of the soldiers will be getting lower and lower, and it will all be a little better as long as they leave the barracks. ”
Locke said as he looked down at Norris, who was busy in his arms.
After a while, the meeting ended. Send scouts out from the legion garrison all the way to the other end of the Haru Canyon to see if there are any gnolls, bandits, and undead. ”
Norris worked deftly under Locke's neck with both hands, she tied a slipknot at both ends of her cloak, pressed the slipknot under the scarf, lifted Locke's collar vigorously and said, "I've already done what you said, so please don't worry." ”
"Alright then, let's go."
Norris didn't rush to leave, she was still standing in front of Locke. She smoothed the folds of Locke's robe, and then placed the hem of the robe, and tucked his scarf tightly into his neck.
Norris sorting out Locke's outfit.
"It's a little cold outside. So," Neveris came to Locke's back and tucked his cloak, "and covered herself as tightly as she could." ”
"Alright, now we can go." Norris sniffed and came up to Locke, who saw that the tip of her nose was already starting to run.
Moved, Locke handed over his hand towel and asked her to wipe her nose.
The elf girl blushed and turned to wipe her nose, then opened the door and walked out.
A cold wind blew in instantly, and Locke couldn't help but shiver.
It's cold!
He hurried out and closed the door.
Outside, Norris was huddled under her cloak and waiting for Locke.
Locke reached out with his left hand and grabbed the cloak behind his back, and stepped forward to wrap Norris between himself and the cloak.
"Let's go!"
At some point, the blizzard had begun to turn into a blizzard, and Locke had to shout loudly in Noris's ear.
The two began to speed towards the Legion headquarters.
Along the way, only scattered soldiers walked quickly, and most of the soldiers did not come out of their barracks.
Locke looked up slightly, and there was a white expanse as far as he could see, and the goose-feathered snow whistled into the distance along the wind.
In just a few minutes, a layer of snow had accumulated on Locke's body.
Locke wrapped his cloak around Norris and began to run at an accelerated pace.
It's not far, less than 10 minutes.
After a dash, Locke and Norris rushed to the door of the Fifth Legion headquarters.
Here, several guards are clearing the snow in front of the door in the face of a blizzard.
Locke asked Norris to advance to the headquarters, and he pulled the captain of the guard and shouted in his ear, "Let the soldiers stop cleaning up and find a place to hide from the wind and snow for a while." The snow is too heavy at this time, so I'm cleaning when it's a little smaller. ”
The captain nodded and began to beckon the soldiers to take shelter from the snow, and Locke looked at it for a moment before turning and walking into the headquarters.
Coming in a smooth room, Locke felt the warmth of spring. He began to shake his body, shaking the snow off his cloak and armor.
Norris took a towel and handed it to him, and he wiped the snow from his head as he walked over to the fireplace, where he stood and roasted the fire.
The headquarters was empty, and the firewood in the fireplace was burning, and it was burning warmly. Locke pulled a chair over and placed it next to the fire, then pulled Norris over and let her sit by the fire and roast her face bruised from the cold.
"Guards! Guardsman! ”
With all this done, Locke walked over to the Legion Commander's seat at Command and sat down.
"Commander, what are your orders?" Outside, a guard walked in and asked.
"Go and inform the Wing Commander, Deputy Wing Commander, Inspector, and Commander of each directly subordinate wing of all the wings to come to the military meeting." Locke instructed the guards who came in, and the guards took the order and turned and walked out.
Then he got up and walked over to Norris by the fireplace, crouched down beside Noris, pulled up her sleeves despite the elf's objections, and examined what she was wearing.
There is only a thin inner lining inside the plate armor, and there is no other clothing to protect against the cold and warmth.
Locke couldn't help but sigh, no wonder you're cold.
This is the same as those girls in the previous life, the more winter and colder, the more they want to show the perfection of their figure. Dare to wear any stockings, miniskirts, and pants, and sometimes don't wear warm clothes for the sake of body perfection, and you can freeze your nose and mouth when you go home at night.
Obviously, the elf girl may also be because of this, so she didn't add other clothes.
It seems that the nature of women is indeed like this.
Locke then grabbed Noris's little feet again, took off her boots, and looked through the gap between the calf plate pants.
There are only layers of gauze underpants made of silk.
Locke looked up, and the elf girl was already blushing. She tilted her head and strained her mouth, not daring to look at Locke's expression.
"After the meeting is over, go back and get dressed! I don't want to see you sick about it! Locke said solemnly, and then put boots on her.
"We elves wear clothes like this in winter, we have been here for thousands of years, why change!" Norris turned her head a little unconvinced, quibbling.
"Besides! We don't have that kind of weather either. ”
"Now!" Locke stood up and pointed his finger at himself, "You have to listen to me." ”
"Humph! Arrogance, arrogance. The elf girl twisted her head to the side and looked at the fire and said, but her heart was warm, and she couldn't help but smile at the corner of her mouth.
"Hello Major Bridget."
"Hello, hard work, soldiers." Bridget was heard in the doorway slapping the snow on her body, and then the door opened.
Bridget stood in the doorway, gasping for breath, and when she came back to her senses, she saw Noris's eyes narrow, and her mouth began to let out an inexplicable hey laugh.
"Laugh at what, get ready to work." Locke stood at the top and called out to her in displeasure.
Bridget ignored Locke's words, looked at Noris's back, and walked all the way to the fire.
She also pulled a chair and lit a fire opposite the elf.
At the same time, he was looking at Norris wantonly with aggressive eyes, repeating from top to bottom, back and forth.
There was another noise at the door, and Locke ignored her, and soon Major Hudson and Fran entered.
"Hey, Noris." Bridget whispered to Noris, "How did you hook Locke into your hands?" ”
Hearing Bridget say this, Norris, who was reluctant to deal with her, couldn't help but turn her head to look at her.
"Charm knows? Yes, you don't even know what charm is. Norris looked up to her face and said proudly, "Do you know what it means to be attractive to a woman?" ”
Bridget was speechless for a moment, about fighting and charging into battle, she understands this, and she can still say a set of things, but this.
I don't know.
No one has taught her, and her mother is also long gone, and she has been raised by her father, and she has been treated as a boy since she was a child.
Over there, the elf put on that haughty face again. Looking at this cold face, Bridget suddenly began to grit his teeth.
The two of them slapped the snow at the door, complaining to Locke.
"Commander, are you sure that in such weather, you should also let the soldiers go out for training?"
"I think we can wait"
Locke didn't speak, but motioned for them to come to the fire and roast them for a while.
Seeing the two coming, Bridget had to keep her mouth shut, and could only suppress the depression in her heart.
Soon, Inspector Shiloh, Major Paul, Major Saul and other commanders of various wings walked in, and for a while, the headquarters was also lively.
Locke held an enlarged meeting this time, he used to be only the chief officer of each wing, but now even the adjutant has been called, and dozens of people have crowded the command headquarters.
For a while, everyone was discussing the snowstorm and the Winter Veil Festival.
Bridget was depressed, but her priorities were clear. She walked behind Locke to check the numbers, and then she nodded to Locke.
Locke stood up from his chair, and the rest of the hall stopped talking as they looked at Locke.
"The training plan is the same, we still have to go out to train."
Locke's words immediately caused the officers in the hall to explode, and everyone began to make a loud noise.
"It's such a big wind and snow outside, what are we going out to train?"
"Now that it's like this outside, and the beasts are finding a place to hide for the winter, what are we going out for?"
"Well, the Legion Commander might have something else in mind, right?"
"It's just over a month before the Winter Veil Festival, can't we go out after the Winter Veil Festival?"
For a time, many words reached Locke's ears.
