Chapter 67: Sudden Autumn

Time flies. In a blink of an eye, half a month has passed since that night's operation.

Xiu arrived at the camp at the end of September, and it was already mid-October. There is still half a month left before the exams that Gerald said will start at the end of each month.

Xiu has been preparing for this. He trained his body desperately and reviewed his textbooks desperately in order to have a better score at the end of the month.

His goal was to be number one from the start, but he knew he wasn't there... The gap between himself and Anthony and Carlos is still too big. So he gave himself the task of moving forward by ten places.

He knew he still had time. But although it has been decreasing.

It's still hot.

While much of the Holy Roman Empire was in the crisp autumn days, the heat in this black forest was still unbearable. Autumn seems to have nothing to do with this forest at all.

The Knights of Destiny thought that it might be so hot all the time, some happy, others sad. Happily, of course, the Valkyries, who wore energetic miniskirts and stockings and short leather boots that kept the little boys looking away only when it was hot. Once winter comes, the cold is enough to daunt anyone.

God knows why they are so keen to show their beauty to the world, as if they were finally free after being bound all their lives, and they will defend that freedom to the extreme.

Naturally, the male knights don't like it. Or not quite.

They also had to be wrapped in thick armor and wear neat uniforms on hot days, although nominally these armors were light armor, and only the joints and throats were armored in the vital parts for light combat, but the armor of the Mandate of Heaven was specially made. The official Celestial Knight light armor was far from being as light as the ordinary armor worn by the trainees. Those seemingly light outfits were actually deadly heavy, no lighter than the heavy armor of an ordinary kingdom's heavy knights.

These armors are armor that is meant to block the attacks of the dead, and it is absolutely impossible not to make it hard, and besides, the harder the metal, the heavier it is.

So if you think about it, the knights carried nearly dozens of kilograms of iron to bask in the sun for a day, and in the summer sun, the iron pieces would be hot, and how painful it was to stand guard with those hot pieces of iron.

As for the reason why they are not completely annoying, it is because at this time there are Valkyries who can wear bold and explicit hot clothes.

It's an eye-catcher.

Although there are Valkyries' hot bodies dangling in front of them, it is so hot that there is really a fire burning from the inside out.

I can only say that I am in pain and happy.

Everyone thought the heat would last, and no one knew how long the hell would last.

So when autumn really hit, it was really like an attack, and suddenly it exceeded everyone's expectations. Almost without warning, the temperature dropped several levels overnight. Obviously, the day before, they hated to have to hide in the shade and blow the warm wind—because the wind was hot, and it couldn't cool down—but the next morning everyone was awakened by a chill, and they all sneezed in the shiver.

Xiu shuddered as he stood up.

Although he didn't have the habit of sleeping naked, the clothes on his body were just a small short-sleeved shirt, which was as thin as silk in order to be cold.

Why does this autumn seem to be getting a little cold... Didn't the impression that the coolness came little by little? Why did it mutate in one night this time!

He wrapped his blanket tightly and glanced in Otto's direction.

This guy has been covered with a thin quilt and looks like he is sleeping comfortably.

He remembered that before he went to bed last night, he saw that Otto had a thin blanket on his bed, and now Otto was covered with a thick quilt.

This is not like the uniform black and white quilt of the Mandate of Heaven military camp, but the appearance of gold on a white background with gold edges. This should have been brought by yourself?

This guy was either woken up in the middle of the night, or he hadn't slept when the weather got cold. Xiu thought so. Anyway, no matter which one it was, he must have slept very late at night.

Xiu shuddered again. He hurriedly endured the chill that was only a little bit, but kept drilling into his bones, and hurriedly put on his clothes and armor.

It was still very early, and because of the sudden cooling, he woke up much earlier than usual today. He pushed open the door of the dormitory and ran to the quartermaster's office.

I'm going to feed the dark today. Xiu thought so.

Yesterday Instructor Suzanne said that after a month of basic training, the foundation is already a little bit, so the next step is to teach them to ride a horse.

Strictly speaking, most people know a little bit about horseback riding. But as a knight of destiny, he is embarrassed to go out and say that he is an elite legionnaire who fights and saves the world without being proficient in equestrianism?

Therefore, the requirements of Destiny for equestrianism are actually very high.

Of course, the real reason is that the warriors of Destiny need such a high equestrian requirement for Honkai's battle.

In the eyes of the dead, horses are as much a target as people. Therefore, when the Knights of Destiny launched a charge against the dead soldiers, many of the dead Knights of Destiny died after their mounts were killed and could not keep up with the large army, and finally died of exhaustion.

Xiu is still looking forward to the equestrian class. Because it also meant that he could vent his excess energy with the darkness.

Since that night passed, Dark had returned to the days of recuperation. Three meals a day of horse grass, and occasionally a few white breads brought to it by Xiu and fruit once a week.

Repair eats half, secretly eats half.

I guess I've had enough of the darkness on days like this! Xiu couldn't help but smile when he thought of this.

It's hard to worry about it.

But from today onwards, Dark can be regarded as able to run out openly!

Thinking so, Xiu walked to the quartermaster's office.

To his surprise, Mia didn't doze off outside.

Or rather, Mia didn't come out to look at the stars. This surprised him. But if you think about it, you can find a reason.

I guess it's cold at night. He couldn't help but laugh again.

Gently pushed the wooden door open, and the door did not make any unusual noise. He cautiously walked over to Mia, who was asleep.

Today, Mia is actually wrapped tightly, and it looks like she doesn't need to do anything by herself at all, it seems that she is cold.

Xiu gently picked up the notebook and registered, then carefully put it back. Because writing on the table, the person sleeping on the table will hear the sound of writing very clearly, so he picks it up and writes.

He left without making a sound, quietly taking a bag of horse grass and wheat and leaving.

I got up early today, repaired the horses, and went to breakfast. When I came back, I felt that there was still some time, so I brushed the dark brush by the way.

Since today is to practice equestrianism, it is also good to give it a bath to make it feel refreshed. However, when Xiu touched the cold water, he couldn't help but shiver.

I hope Dark won't get cold from this.

When Xiu finished the dark brush, the horn of the assembly sounded.

Today's training begins. Xiu patted the dark neck.

"You can indulge in a run today!"
