Although there is snow and fog, the view is really good...... Looking at the cavalry patrolling the avenue, the knight turned and looked at the dragon hunting crossbow again: it was about two meters long, and the part of the crossbow body attached to the base could be moved in all directions to aim.

Despite the similar structure, the arrows on the crossbow string are distinctly different from the dragon hunting arrows - the former is black, the latter is perceived to be white. Around the crossbow machine is a rack of dragon hunting bolts for backup. Unlike winding, the operator can easily fire by simply pressing the trigger firmly.

...... Although it is not known how much recoil there is. Judging from the uncomfortable position that the user has to squat in, it should not be too small.

"That's right, Hall. Looking down at the inner city from the city wall, the knight suddenly thought of something: "The current guards of Eternal Winter City should be relatively short of manpower, right?

"We only have the North Gate, the South Gate, and the East Gate. After thinking about it, the soldier added: "The east gate is connected to the hot spring farm, which is considered a suburb. The gate and the road in front of it were narrow, and it was unrealistic for the enemy to attack. So it's good to spread the forces in front of the two gates. As for the other sections of the wall, they are just a bit of a sentinel. ”

"Before you said ...... In ancient times, this section of the city wall was connected to the periphery of the Cold Snow Castle, right?" Looking carefully at the north, the knight was still a little puzzled: "I haven't been to the north gate. If the north side is also the old city wall, then when there was no new city, wouldn't this area be too large?"

"That's it. Therefore, we expanded the new city by the wall. The tone was quite proud, and the guard said proudly: "It can be seen how far-sighted our ancestors are?"

"Definitely. But they may have been used to grow vegetables before, right?" Remembering the place where the hot springs were all there, the knight shook his white robe: "There are also a lot of woods, and you can be self-sufficient without leaving the city in an emergency." ”

"I don't know, and no one has mentioned it. Asked by the knight, the soldier pondered for a while: "Until now, no one has figured out how this wall was built...... It is only known that its material is an enchanted snow stone. ”

"Snow stones?" After being stunned for a moment, the knight looked at the steaming ground under his feet: "I thought it was just a snow stone on the wall to prevent slipping, but I didn't expect it to be all." Isn't the color of the snowstone a pale ice blue? ”

"That's why it's enchanted. Having found a topic that he was good at, the guards hurriedly began to popularize science for the knights: "You may not know, right? Dongcheng District, that is, the suburbs, has not only hot springs and vegetable gardens, but also large mines. It's a pity that unlike the metals abundant in Ice Rock City, our ores are rarely able to forge weapons except for black iron ore, and they are basically snow stones. ”

"Turning Snow Stones...... The principle of this thing is really inexplicable. Surprised, the knight smiled and whispered, "However, black steel is enough for weapons, isn't it? ”

"That's right, but how can this little bit of ore be enough? As soon as the war starts, there will be a shortage, and we still have to rely on Beihai to import. After arranging his collar, the guard suddenly asked, "Do you know what we are going to trade with Beihaiwang?"

I'm not interested...... Not wanting to disturb his interest, the knight just smiled and said nothing. The man sorted out his words well, and after clearing his throat, he said with interest: "Hehe, I guessed you're interested! ”

No, I'm not interested...... Feeling that it was rude to refuse now, Anusen had to listen in embarrassment: although I was not averse to trade or anything, I wanted to talk about something else now.

"We mainly export black steel, specialty timber and herbs. In addition, there are also wild animals such as snow deer and snow hare. Puffing up his chest, he was quite proud: "That's what I used to do." Reselling snow stones. But outsiders don't seem to like it, and few people buy it. Maybe it's because there are fewer snow days? Only the port on the other side of the river has been paved on a large scale. ”

"Although it's a specialty, it's mainly of relatively small use, isn't it? That is, the lord or the chamber of commerce has bought a batch of paving and it's over. Without giving the knight a chance to speak, the man began to mutter, "But I've heard from Master Nadia before that from time to time, the Mage Academy and the Alchemy Guild will send people to buy snow stones as spellcasting materials. But why didn't I come across such a good thing? I heard that that kid from Derno used these to mortgage the entrance fees of the Mage Academy. ”

Spellcasting materials...... Lucina is a powerful mage, and she basically doesn't need spellcasting materials. Perhaps because it was inconvenient to carry the materials, she always relied on a large amount of mana to release it with her bare hands.

I don't even use a staff, so I guess I feel troublesome. Let's go back and ask her what's going on. The mages in Anusen's impression basically didn't have the ability to release the Frost Nova with their bare hands.

Of course, there is no guy like Nairavos who freezes people into ice cubes without looking back.

"That's right, Hall. Remembering what he had just wanted to ask, the knight looked at the guard who was wiping the snowflakes from the dragon hunting crossbow with a dry cloth and wanted to show them to the knight, "Do you know anything about Namedia?"

"Oh, yes. Carelessly wiping the crossbow arrow, the chatty guard was busy polishing it: "But I'm only in my twenties, and I don't remember the events of more than ten years ago very well." I only heard that Captain Eders was obsessed with her to death. As for the relationship between them, it's really hard to say - it's quite ambiguous, but the relationship between the lovers has never been clear. There are even rumors that what she really likes is the demon who follows her. This kind of thing is common, right? Contractors and demons of the opposite sex have been in love for a long time, and most of them will fall in love. ”

Sinnoen...... But how did he become a demon? The humanoid demon will always be by his side to summon it all over again. Once the summon is canceled, the summoner's mana will be greatly damaged. When you go out into the wilderness, you often encounter situations where you need to sleep together and camp, so ......

"Well, that's true. Nodding, the knight suddenly felt a little funny: "I don't know what the reason is, when summoning a humanoid contract demon, it basically summons the opposite sex." Therefore, if you summon a same-sex demon, you will always be considered by the layman that there is a problem with your sexual orientation. ”

After saying this, and seeing that the man was busy with maintenance again, the knight turned and looked into the sky in contemplation. However, the sound of the crossbow machine winding suddenly came from behind him.

(Molu PS: A book friend told me that he read my novel on the starting point reading app and found that the previous chapters had not changed at all.) I said it couldn't be, so I landed at the starting point that I hadn't climbed for a long time. So I found out that it really hasn't changed, it's still a list four or five months ago. And I made a particularly big change in the first dozen chapters, and it didn't automatically sync at all, so I had to manually refresh the list two or three times. If you find that the Prologue of Section A of Volume 1 is still "Blood Moon Sanctuary" instead of "The Forgotten Journey", I hope to refresh the list.)
