Chapter Twenty-Six: Snowing? It's snowing!

"It's snowing in town!" The little nobleman had forgotten what he had wanted to do, and all he knew was to run all the way, shouting "It's snowing in the city" and rushing back to the hall.

"It's snowing in town?" Although the hall was noisy, echoing with the sound of the orchestra playing in the orchestra pit, the howl of the little nobleman was so penetrating that when he got a little closer to the hall, he could already hear the nobleman with a keen sense of hearing.

"I said Bob, did you see a few beautiful ladies and ladies today, and then drank too much and hallucinated?" A man who was more familiar with the little nobleman named Bob stopped Bob at the door of the hall.

Because the little nobleman named Bob howled "It's snowing in the city", the realization of the whole hall turned to him, and even the musicians in the orchestra pit stopped playing themselves.

They all knew that because of the magic array for constant temperature in Far Winter City, even if there was snowfall, it would slowly turn into a drizzle when it fell into the city. In the minds of these nobles, it is impossible for snowflakes to appear in Winterfell.

"Pree, I'm serious. I, Bob, swear in the name of Evendra the Great Changemaker, that I really saw a layer of snowflakes falling on the street outside. Bob's eyes widened as he looked at the nobleman named Pres who questioned him.

Press was speechless when Bob said this. Bob earned the title of knight for life through business, so Evangela, the changer in charge of the business world, was the god of his faith.

Now that Bob had sworn in the name of the gods he believed in, Press decided to find out for himself.

I didn't feel much in the hall at first, but by the time I walked into the hallway, Presie already felt a chill.

"Could it be ......" Pree's heart already believed Bob's words seventy percent. Because the city hall is a more effective area for the thermostatic array, even if it is affected by that kind of cold weather, the temperature will not drop so much.

When Prey walked to a window, he realized that the ground had really begun to white, and the sky was covered with dense snowflakes.

"This ......" Press couldn't say a word, he hadn't seen snowflakes in Far Winter for as long as he could remember. Every time even if he wants to enjoy the snow scene in winter, he can only see it in his enclosed territory.

The hall had become very quiet because of Bob's howl before, and Prese almost walked out to verify it under the eyes of everyone, and now he was so stunned and speechless that the people in the hall were very anxious.

"What's wrong?" The nobles, who were not very familiar with Presy, whispered to each other and the people around them.

And the nobles who are more familiar with Pres have already begun to joke with Presie: "Presie, you coward, you won't faint when you see anything, hahahaha." ”

Even some nobles, like Ain's father, received either hereditary or lifelong titles of nobility after gaining enough military merit in the June War, so they spoke with a hint of non-aristocratic impulse: "But to say something, down or not?" ”

"Outside the city, it's really snowing......" Pree's voice trembled a little, and his voice seemed very unclear, but then he opened his voice and shouted, "It's really snowing in the city!" ”

"It turns out that it's snowing in the city......" The nobles in the hall didn't have the excitement and anticipation just now, and many people hoped that there was no snow outside, and when the time came, this nobleman named Bob could bring some jokes to the aristocratic circle of Winterfell because he swore an oath to the gods he believed in.

Soon, the discussion quieted down, and the orchestra in the orchestra pit quickly continued to play as if nothing had happened. The nobles in the hall continued what they had done before—and of course, some of them may have chosen other entertainment at the banquet.

Those who had only risen to the rank of nobility during the June War were also a little worried about their estates. After all, even a big city like Far Winter City, which is protected by a magic circle for heat preservation, has already appeared with snow, not to mention those manors outside the city.

However, seeing that those nobles who have been in this land for several generations have no worries about their own territory, these new nobles' worries about their estates have been revealed. Because there were only a few serfs on the estate who took care of them, these serfs were really not worth mentioning compared to the nobles who had a territory and the people in their territory. And it's winter, and there are no crops on the estate, so naturally there will be no problems that affect your purse.

As for the coachmen who were waiting outside, they were even more out of the thinking of these noble lords, just a house slave. What's more, in their impression, those coachmen generally wear thicker clothes.

After a while, Brady, as the highest nobleman in Winterfell and the lord of Winterfell, made an appearance at the banquet.

The band in the orchestra pit came to an abrupt end.

"Everyone." Brady's voice is very loud, unlike many nobles who have been passed down for generations, Brady is somewhat similar to those new nobles after the June War, and has very good personal strength. And those nobles who have been inherited, many of them have directly become that kind of gentleman because they don't have any talent, or even if they have some talent, they will be hastily trained.

The nobles and nobles in the hall naturally heard Brady's voice, and slowly stopped what they were doing.

"There's been a serious snowstorm around Winterfell, and it's cold outside, so if you don't have the magic items you need to keep your temperature around you after the banquet is over, the town hall can temporarily stay overnight. Although the environment is certainly not as good as your house, the way home should be a big challenge for you. Brady downplayed what was supposed to be a terrible snowstorm, because he didn't want to tell the nobles the truth. If these nobles, especially the old nobles, get the truth, it is estimated that within three days, these nobles will find an excuse to take refuge in the south, and the excuse is also easy to find - Far Winter City is too cold, just go to the south for a vacation.

There were a few nobles who were a little skeptical of the cold described by Brady, but the banquet was not over yet, and they were ready to wait until the banquet was over to experience it for themselves and make a decision.

After all, this kind of banquet can only bring his wife at most, and as for the maids who accompany him at night or other people who have any other relationship, it is impossible to bring them to this kind of aristocratic banquet.

……

At the beginning of every month, as well as at the time of the New Year, the bell towers in cities around the country will ring melodious bells, and this bell is the end signal of the spring feast tonight. Although the nobles who were interested in talking could still communicate in the hall, a large number of the nobles chose to go home and experience their own gentleness.

It was only after leaving the town hall that the nobles who had left felt the real cold. Because in addition to insulation, there is also a magic array responsible for heating in the town hall to provide heating. And there is only a magic array for heat preservation on the street, and there is no way to counteract the cold brought by the magic energy in the snowflakes.

Even some nobles found that the quasi-magical items they bought to maintain the temperature around them in order to be cheap were already in this cold, and there was a tendency to lose their effect slightly.

"The cursed profiteer, you must buy a real magic item in the future." Many nobles cursed like this in their hearts, and then retreated, and directly chose to return to the town hall and live in the town hall temporarily. A small number of nobles who are more wealthy choose to return to their mansions because their carriages carry various magic arrays for thermal insulation and heating.

However, there are still some nobles with a certain strength who have discovered the anomalies of Far Winter City.

……

Thousands of miles of snow drifted, and the Northwest Fortress, which was still a long way from Far Winter City, was now also snowing heavily. The commanders of the various fortresses didn't take it seriously after receiving the news from Brady, after all, these skeletons would come to harass every once in a while. So the commanders of several fortresses simply passed the news and went back to rest themselves.

I didn't expect that dozens of miles away, I could already feel the strong breath of the dead.
