Chapter 73: Barricades

The Bachelors of the Redstone Tower belong to a group of people in the city who are not very popular with women. Every woman in Spire knows that the Bachelor is old-fashioned and boring, always saying things that others don't understand, and is a weird bunch of weird guys who are hard to get along with.

Not only that, but the social status of the bachelor in the city was quite average. After all, there is also a group of knowledgeable magicians in the city, who are also scholars, who are not only smarter, more rebellious, more powerful, but also richer, and they are firmly above the heads of the library masters. Few girls from good families would list bachelors as their first choice for marriage, and the number of bachelors who have lived alone for life is uncountable in the Redstone Tower.

In such an environment, as a scholar of the Redstone Tower Library, Pence has never tasted love in his thirties. I didn't expect that in the rust village today, I tasted everything that should have been tasted and what should not be tasted.

Faced with the embrace of the cute girl in the village, he gave up resistance and fell directly. first became an adulterer, and then was caught raping. If it weren't for the hateful gaze of his fiancée, he would have even felt that he had been deceived by a scam like Immortal Jump. Fortunately, a passing magician saved himself with healing magic, otherwise......

The wound on Penceby's stomach had completely scabbed over and he was free to live. However, his internal organs were still very painful, and he could barely walk on his own. He got out of bed, intending to talk to the alien magician named 'Achen' and say thanks. Before he could get out of the door, he was caught in the courtyard by several soldiers of the Fire Regiment.

The warriors pointed to Silverplate Island in the sky for Penceby to watch.

"Bachelor, come and see, is this Silver Pan Island ready to move?"

Penceby narrowed his eyes, then turned pale.

"I'm already adjusting the angle of travel. In half an hour, half an hour at most, Silverpan Island will move towards the east of Spire City, passing through this village! ”

According to Penceby's knowledge, there are seven empty islands throughout the Spire City, and the last movement event occurred a year ago, caused by 'Eryn Island', a total of ten large cloud creatures fell to the ground, and three survived intact. Disturbing the neighborhood is not peaceful.

Each of the three legions in the spire city is responsible for one, and only the most experienced fire regiment successfully completes the mission. The Legion of Glory and the Legion of Wisdom suffered heavy casualties, with more than half of the 5,000 men lost. I haven't recovered yet.

Penceby looked at Silverplate Island in the sky with a worried expression. All he could do was pray for good luck from the gods and not let the big creatures in the clouds fall into the village. As for the medium-sized and small, the Orion in the village and a squad of Agni Warriors should be able to handle it.

At the door of Eddie's house, Eddie drove away the chattering village girls around him and was talking to Shanti alone.

Shanti wanted him to help treat his swollen pig's trotter hand, but Aichen was holding back a bad idea.

"You said there was a martial arts test, can you tell me about it carefully?"

Shanti didn't think much about it, and said it honestly.

She wanted to be a member of the Fire Regiment, not interested in things like fighting, but just trying to find out about her background.

Seventeen years ago, as a baby, she was picked up by a pair of villagers on the side of the road. Wrapped around her tiny body was the battle flag of the Flame Regiment. Naturally, she thought that her parents should be members of the Flame Regiment.

Aichen thinks the story is old-fashioned. However, considering that there are no household registrations, archives and the like in this world, there should be quite a few orphans with similar experience, and it is not surprising to meet a few.

Shanti had been holding out her hand for a long time, and after answering a few questions, she gradually became a little impatient.

In her opinion, the magician in front of her was still young, and although she was pleasing to the eye, she was weird. I don't know if I have real skills, and I can't listen to all the hunters' nonsense.

Due to the spread of the movement of the empty island, the village has entered a state of turmoil by this time.

Eddie and his big-bellied wife come to find Archen and explain the movement of the Sky Island. They hoped that the passing magician would do the village a favor.

With his skills, he will definitely be able to keep the village safe." ’

"Help? It's not impossible, but don't expect me to do it directly. If there is any danger, you have to learn to save yourself. I'll be there to help. ”

Ai Chenxin said that he didn't come to do good things, he should take advantage of the current chaos to take advantage of people's danger. This is also the life experience he summed up from the last time he traveled through the world of martial arts.

"If you're willing to help." Eddie wasn't very demanding. Most of the magicians are on top, and it's quite lucky to have met someone so easy-going. "I don't know, what kind of assistance will you provide? We are now going to build a fortress in the empty field of the village, which is what Captain Feng Man meant. Don't know what you think? ”

"If you want to, take it." Ai Chen pointed to Shanti on the side, "Just lend me this girl." ”

As soon as these words came out, Shanti and Eddie glanced at each other, not knowing why. However, since it was the magician's order, it was natural to follow it.

The village was empty, and the villagers who had learned the news of the disaster had calmed down from their panic and were building fortifications under the command of the village elders.

The men tore down their fences and took out wooden stakes and nailed them to the clearing. They also brought in heavy items such as wagons, furniture, and stone mills, and piled them together to serve as walls.

This method of stacking was taught by Von Man. A few years ago, there was a riot in the city organized by a handful of liberal magicians, and he was in charge of controlling the scene when he encountered such a barricade. The people built quite strong fortifications with tables, chairs, benches, shoe cabinets, wardrobes, and it was very laborious to dismantle them.

"I didn't expect it...... At that time, the experience would be used at such a time. Feng Man smiled bitterly.

After two hours of busy work, the empty field has been turned into a 'fortress'.

In the center of the fort is a wall made of furniture. It's better than nothing. It protects 700 men, women and children in the village.

The villagers around the fort have also been armed, and hunters, blacksmiths, and veterans with archery experience in the village are stationed in them, just waiting for the monsters to attack and apply cold arrows.

Directly in front of the fortress is an open passage. Guarded by the Agni Squad at the entrance. If a creature from the clouds strikes, they're here to fight it. Those monsters with bloated bodies and a body length of several meters are most afraid of this kind of narrow terrain.

Everything he could do was done now, and Von Man stood in front of the fortress looking at the sky, holding a steel shield heavy enough to knock over horses. His men had just come to report that all the people in the village had arrived except for the passing magician and an orphaned girl named Shanti.

Feng Man's eyes were falling on Yinpan Island, and he didn't have time to listen to his subordinates. The empty island reflected in his pupils was moving towards this direction little by little, and there was a thunderous rumble in the sky.

"Disaster is inevitable."

The Librarian of the Redstone Tower also saw the movement of Silverpan Island, but he didn't pay attention. At this point, something more sinister caught his attention and made him look farther into the sky.

There, Irene Sky Island, which had just been moved once fifteen years ago, seemed to be adjusting its direction......
