Nausicaa.

The arrival of Lin Ke and his party made the town extremely lively, and people left their stone houses and came to the side of the main road to observe the "huge" convoy curiously, knowing that it was probably the big man in the family who had descended, which made their curiosity even stronger.

The closer he got here, Lin Ke found that this place can be called a valley of windmills, windmills of different sizes can be seen everywhere, as small as the side wall of a stone house, as large as the edge of a shuttle castle, windmills have become the most mainstream power source here, hurricanes have brought a difficult living environment here, but also give the people here the most natural resources available.

Mechanization seems to have been developed here, and the power of the windmill was used in a variety of places, such as drawing water from rivers or powering hammers to hammer fine iron in blacksmiths.

After passing the checkpoint at the head of the bridge, it took a long time for the convoy to come to the stone house group, and the good-eyed people could already see that Lin Ke was at the center of the whole team, and they looked at the young and handsome blonde boy riding a black horse and wearing a new leather armor, and they all showed amazement!

Lin Ke didn't care about the scene at this time, being watched by hundreds of people was really nothing to him, he was just engrossed in *doing* the steed, so as not to make a fool of himself in front of everyone.

The castle's heavy stone gate was located at the other tip of the shuttle-shaped castle opposite the huge windmill, facing the direction of the stone bridge and the arrow tower, and now the gate was already open, and a middle-aged man in a simple gray robe greeted him, and Brooke had already driven forward to make a brief exchange with the visitor, and then led him to Linko.

The middle-aged man saluted solemnly, "Hello Dear Young Master Cohen, Greetings to Burton, the faithful servant of the Mutes family, welcome to your family's territory, Fort Aitter is your safest home." ”

"Uncle Burton doesn't have to be so polite," Lin Ke quickly dismounted and came to the middle-aged man to give him a warm hug, although this did not conform to the reserved demeanor of a nobleman, "In the eyes of a passer-by like me, this place is really beautiful, but for you, who hold things here for the family, this place is a little desolate after all, and I must thank you on behalf of my grandfather and father, for your hard work." ”

In Cher's story, Burton is a thrifty and law-abiding person, but at this moment he is obviously a little stunned, and his hands are slightly trembling and he doesn't know where to put it.

"Let's go, Uncle Burton, take me to see this Aitburg, I'm a little impatient," Linko patted Burton's arm and walked towards the gate first, behind him was Brooke and several guards who handed over the horses to the servants, Daisy and the three did not show up, this kind of occasion is not suitable for them to appear, and the seventh elder Eller stayed in the carriage throughout the journey, this determination to endure loneliness made Linko sigh secretly.

"Hey, old Burton, what are you doing?" Brooke slapped Burton on the shoulder.

"Damn Brooke, can't you just be light?" Burton grinned and dodged Brooke's clutches, ignoring him, just trotting all the way to catch up with Linko, obviously the two had known each other for a long time and had a very good relationship.

From time to time, Lin Ke smiled and waved to the civilians around him who were obviously extremely curious but timid, and did not dare to approach, perhaps it was the handsome face that made people feel cordial, and the atmosphere that seemed to be a little tense because of the arrival of a large number of armor-wearing guards was relieved, and several children even ran towards Lin Ke while the adults were not paying attention.

Lin Ke raised his hand to stop a few guards who were standing in front of him to prevent the children from approaching, walked a few steps to a little boy who stood a few steps in front of the guards and did not dare to approach, picked him up, kneaded his fleshy face a few times, and smiled kindly at a woman who was already nervous but helpless.

"Like the leather armor on my brother's body?"

The little boy who was taking advantage of Lin Ke's inattention to put his little hand on his leather armor and rubbed it carefully suddenly felt uneasy that his small movements were being peeped at, and his face turned red.

"Hahaha, I'll leave this leather armor at Fort Aitte when I'm gone, and when you're old enough to capture a beast on your own, come to Butler Burton and exchange the head of your prey for this leather armor. ”

There were exclamations all around, but Lin Ke didn't care.

"Really?" the little boy's eyes lit up instantly, and he asked with some uncertainty, but his eyes were full of hope.

"Of course it's true, don't you believe we pull the hook?" Lin Ke affirmed.

The little boy really stretched out his fleshy little hand and tried to put his little thumb in front of Lin Ke.

Linko laughed, and the little fingers of * and the soft little fingers hooked together, and hundreds of civilians and guards around witnessed the moment.

This is a simple and ordinary scene that happened in a corner of the mainland.

Hundreds of years later, it has not been forgotten.

――――――――――――――――――――

The night in Aitburg is accompanied by the whirring of the wind.

Brooke, who had finally come to visit, did not let Burton go, but broke into the latter's house and sat down, fortunately he brought good wine, otherwise Burton would have driven him out, the arrival of this guy broke his good habit of going to bed early and getting up early.

"Hey, Brooke," Burton drank a little too much, and he began to talk a lot, "What kind of bastard is slandering Young Master Cohen's reputation, and actually saying that he is just a nerd who only knows how to cultivate in the family greenhouse, damn it, Brooke, you must find out who it is, punish him severely, and then drive him out of the family." ”

Brooke looked at the old friend with amusement and said, "Young Master Cohen was really a cultivator freak originally, but no one knew that he was just unwilling to express it, he knew it very well in his heart," he raised his glass and drank a large sip of fine wine and sighed with satisfaction, "After the family lost seven second generations one after another, who doesn't expect the third generation to have a pillar-like figure? The original complaints can also be understood." ”

"Yes," Burton smiled, "Lord Rhein has worked hard all these years, and Young Master Jason doesn't want to come back, the family needs a new generation of centripetal force too much, and I, Burton, have seen a lot of young masters and ladies of the second and third generations of the Mutes family," he looked up and drank a large sip of wine like Brooke, "Only today, Brooke, only today, I am willing to get drunk for this meeting!"

"Dangdangdang......" The alarm bell rang for a long time!

"What's going on?" Brooke immediately got up and walked out.

The quicker to react than him was Burton, who ran out the door as soon as the alarm bell sounded, and he was also a master!

――――――――――――――――――――

Linko has not yet fallen asleep.

He was very interested in this shuttle-shaped castle, as early as the previous life he had a great interest in medieval Western-style castles, but it was a pity that he did not have time to visit due to his busy work, but in this life, his wish was not difficult to come true, and compared to the sparse population of medieval Europe and the glory of the short castle era, the castle civilization that lasted for countless years in this world made the castle architecture here more complete and magical.

"Aitburg has been the best defensive terrain for the people of Nausicaa to defend against the invasion of Warcraft since its founding, and it has also given the nobles a relatively peaceful living environment in the Valley of the Winds," Cher was pulled by Lincor, who couldn't sleep, to act as a temporary interpreter, and Lilith followed, only Daisy fell asleep after a day of playing," The streets of the castle are winding and winding, and there is hardly a straight road, so that if one day the castle is breached as a last resistance, of course, it has not been breached by monsters or others so far, so all the facilities in the castle are well preserved......"

"Dangdangdang......" At this moment, the alarm bell suddenly rang!

Lin Ke was stunned for a moment, and then without the slightest hesitation, he ran in the direction of the city wall where the alarm bell came, followed by Cher, who was running lightly but without any difficulty, and Neil, the black boy who had been following him like a shadow, and Lilith had already crossed Lin Ke at the first time, and she was like a night elf in a black tight suit, and a few dodges had disappeared into the crooked path of the castle.

"It's a beast tide dominated by the high-level zerg," Lilith unknowingly returned to him and followed him easily when Lin Ke was only halfway away, "When I went to the city wall, they had already crossed the river and the arrow tower, and came to the castle, most of the residents outside the castle were sleeping, and some of them had not yet reacted, and they were entering the castle one after another, but the time may be a little tight, and some civilians may not have time to enter the castle to hide!"

"Beast tide?" Lin Ke frowned fiercely, "How can there be a beast tide in this season, and how big is the beast herd?"

"It's not too big a beast tide, and Fort Ait's defense is enough," replied him in a voice that came from several people, but it was Eller who had come to them at some point, which made Lilith, who was not familiar with the situation, feel creepy.

"Don't worry about Lilith, that's not an enemy," Lilith soothed her as soon as Lin Ke grabbed it, "This is the Seventh Grandfather, the seventh elder of the family, who came here with the convoy. ”

"Don't run around, I'll go out of town to see what's going on," Eller ignored Lilith's reaction, and then disappeared strangely after admonishing Linko.

By the time Linko arrived at the tip of the shuttle castle's ramparts facing the stone bridge and arrow tower, most of the elite guards of the Mutes family, including Brooke and Burton, and most of the elite guards of the Mutes family who had followed the convoy were already here.

Linko hurriedly walked in front of Brooke and Burton to look out, waved his hand to stop Burton from wanting to salute and asked, "How is the situation now?"

Brooke said with a serious face, "It's not optimistic, the vanguard of the beast tide has crossed the river, and now the river in this season is too shallow to hinder them, it was the arrow tower on the stone bridge that was the first to sound the alarm, at this moment the guards in the arrow tower have removed the ladder at the bottom to cut off the way for the beasts to climb up, but they themselves are trapped there, and the current vanguard are still ordinary beasts, I am worried that once the demon beast leader appears, the arrow tower will not be able to stop their attack, especially this beast tide is ten likely** It is dominated by the higher zergs. ”

Lin Ke stared at the population crossing the river, and the light in his eyes flickered!
