Chapter 53: Mission
That night, many people in Hajar saw the fire on the opposite hill.
Wang Chu couldn't imagine how big the open fire was from such a distance, he only heard the agitation outside the wall overnight, but he didn't know what he was doing.
The next morning, the heavy rain still did not stop, the classes of Hajar College still had to continue, the two sisters still got up every morning, and after breakfast, they got into the carriage, and the road to the college was full of stagnant water, Wang Chu complained about the architectural pattern of the city many times, especially these potholed roads, look at the rainstorm, the whole city has to roll up its pants and walk.
The two sisters of Lias put on a layer of raincoats, which can be regarded as a rain shelter tool in this world, the outside is oily and the inside is plush, Wang Chu is held in the coat, and it feels quite comfortable.
When I came to the academy classroom, the most discussed was of course last night's fire, which was seen by almost the entire city, and even if the fire was not visible today, there was still smoke in the distance.
"I've heard that the lord of the castle has sent troops over, and it is said that the village chief over there is on fire. One student said.
On rainy days, the temperature is relatively low.
So Lias didn't put herself in the beast summoning lounge, but took herself to the classroom, which was relatively warmer.
"You just talk about it, how can it catch fire on a rainy day, and it's such a heavy rain, I can raise fish in front of my house." ”
Poof~ The girls around couldn't help but laugh.
Even Lias and Wang Chu could feel the tremors coming from her body, and they really couldn't understand if they wanted to laugh and had to endure it.
"I've heard this from the Adventurers' Guild. The boy retorted vigorously. However, after arguing for a long time, the cause of the fire was still not clarified, probably in the hearts of these students, they did not take this matter to heart, no matter what happened, the army and the Magicians Association would settle it.
It wasn't until the instructor walked in that the discussion stopped.
Wang Chu got his head out of Lias's arms and lay on the table.
"Cam, go down, it's bad to be seen by the mentor. Lias pressed her head and whispered.
It's not like I haven't seen her......
There were two people in the sound of cool footsteps, and many students realized that the person who came in with the tutor was actually a person who looked like a soldier, although the armor was removed, it could still be distinguished from the body shape and soft armor, and the surrounding students began to discuss.
"Quiet, gentlemen, let me introduce you to this Captain Quinlan from the city's garrison. The mentor pointed to the people around him.
He stepped forward, then sniffed and said in a loud voice.
"Today I received an order from my superiors, and I think everyone knows about the fire in the east yesterday, which was the burning of Felder Farm...... Due to the fact that the canal on the west side of the city defense also broke its bank, and there was too much water in the city, the garrison was overwhelmed, so after the deliberation of the head of Hajar House, it was decided to send some students to join the hired adventurers to help in Felder Farm. His words were sonorous and powerful, and he made everything clear.
However, Wang Chu, who leaned over under the table, couldn't help but complain.
The next rainstorm flooded the city and flooded the moat.
"It was a great opportunity and the Head of House secured it for us. The instructor on one side did not forget to cheer up the students.
In this kind of weather, it is raining heavily, and you have to go out of the mountains.
I won't go to death.
Don't go, don't go......
"But the mountain roads are rugged, and there are often fierce beasts, so we selected excellent students to go this time. ”
Wang Chu distinctly heard a lax voice around him.
Salted fish also have a time of pride?
"Now I'm going to announce the list of cadets who have come to Deld Farm. ”
"Lias Lucifergus......"
Wang Chu always felt that no matter what she was, she had her name. On this rainy day, I have to run up the mountain. In addition to Lias, there were three people called behind, but Wang Chu didn't pay attention, only thinking that the days when he could take a hot bath at night would be a long time later.
..............................
After a day of classes, the rain still kept falling.
In some low-lying places, a stream of water has been formed, why is this hellish weather endless, it was obviously fine a few days ago.
Back at home, Lias told Julian and her sister about going to Field Farm...... Although the weather was not good, this task was also directly ordered from the military, and as a veteran soldier, Julian of course agreed, only emphasizing that the terrain should be paid attention to during this kind of heavy rain field march, especially the mudslides that are prone to occur on mountain roads.
"Grandpa, we're here to help on the farm, not on a quick march. Lias emphasized.
Julian laughed dryly.
"All the same, all the same......"
However, the emir was a little reluctant to say: "Sister, it is raining all day now, and the weather is cold, it will be difficult for you to go to the mountain, and it will be difficult for Hui to get sick." ”
"Your sister and I are so weak. Lias retorted.
Wang Chu even felt that Lias seemed to be a little impatient, and it felt like a child waiting for an outing.
"Yes, yes, how can the children of our Lucifergus family be so unable to withstand the wind and rain, although you can go with confidence, if there is any need from the military department, I will arrange it for you. "As a veteran general, Julian's words still carry a little weight in the army.
"Huh...... Cam, why don't you look happy? ”
Happy, how could I not be happy.
Can you already read my expression, he wept and mourned.
Emir picked himself up.
"When I'm away, you have to protect your sister. ”
Wang Chuzhen hopes that his travel form can be opened, and when the time comes, an eagle will go up the mountain, and the one behind you will slowly follow.
......
The next morning, Lias didn't wait for her sister to get up and called a carriage alone and rushed to the academy, the rain seemed to be a little lighter today, it had been raining for two days and two nights, and there was still no sign of stopping.
She seems to remember that last year's rainy season didn't seem to have such a heavy rain, and if it didn't stop, it was estimated that the canal would be too busy, and the canal was the most troublesome place in the rainy season every year.
For this mission, Lias deliberately changed into light armor, and the tool bag in her waist bag was full of many props, and she was still wearing a big raincoat outside.
"Cam, the mountain road is not easy to walk, there are dense forests everywhere, if you can't stand for a while, come to my arms. She spread out her clothes, and there was a wide bag tied to her chest, like the kind of cloth bag that women carry children, Wang Chu had seen on the street before.
The agreed place is at the entrance of the college, and in order not to cause trouble to others, the time should be earlier than the normal class.
"We arrived at Miss. The servant outside the carriage said.
Lias walked out of the bag on Wang Chu's chest.
An icy cold wind blew on his face......
There were already people waiting there in front, and several of them Wang Chu had also seen, with fiery red raincoats followed by black shadows in armor, and of course the paladin brother was also in the ranks, and even Lucia was in the team this time.
Next to the three of them was a man he had never seen before, wrapped himself tightly in a gray-black raincoat, followed by an animal the size of a hound.
