The night is as cool as water.

Green and Pipsqueak had made a tour of the Colosseum and were about to go back when they suddenly saw a glimmer of light in a cave.

He lifted the curtain and stepped inside.

A woman with long white and blond hair was lying on the wooden table with her head buried and writing something, and the candle flame like a bean swayed with the cold wind, and she suddenly raised her beautiful face.

Green was amazed.

He was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Why don't you rest?"

"There are hundreds of extra slaves, and I have to recount the supplies for the winter. ”

Mary put her loose hair behind her ears and lowered her head again.

In the quiet of the cave, there was only the rustling sound of pencil strokes.

Looking at Mary, who frowned from time to time and thought seriously, Green was a little distracted.

It was hard for him to imagine that such an indifferent girl would throw thousands of people into the fire and burn them alive at the age of thirteen or fourteen.

"Bloody Mary".

It's not a good memory.

......

Putting down the pencil in her hand, Mary yawned with her mouth slightly open, and then she raised her arm, and was about to stretch her body when she remembered that there was another person in the room.

Green touched his nose and turned his head away.

Even in a loose nightgown, the curvature just now was extremely amazing.

"Huh, what is this?"

In the corner of the cave, Green suddenly found a small body curled up on a small bed.

Red hair, fair skin, long eyelashes, and a face the size of a palm was slightly flushed from sleep, but he didn't seem to have seen such a slender girl on the island.

"She's the female dwarf, and it's been getting colder lately, and it's obviously not suitable to live in a tent outside, so I put everyone in the cave. ”

Mary glanced back, then stood up and placed a blanket over the sleeping dwarf girl.

"And the gnomes are generally smarter, so I took her with me and trained her to be my assistant. After all, there have been more and more things going on lately!"

Mary said, glancing at Green.

"Uh... Most of the facilities on the site have been completed, and the sewer is being built recently, so it should be time before everyone can move in. ”

Green rubbed his hands together in embarrassment.

Ever since he handed over these things to Mary, he has become a hands-off shopkeeper, and he has not bothered at all except the occasional visit to the construction site.

There was silence in the room for a while.

Green felt that the atmosphere at the moment was a little strange, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly heard Mary whisper, "Have you Vikings ever thought about leaving this sea?"

"Huh?" Greene froze.

"There is an astrological master in the Demon Realm Continent who once predicted that the weather may get colder and colder in the next ten years, and the winter during this period of time is extremely cold, and if his predictions come true, the life situation of the Vikings may become more and more difficult. ”

Mary noticed Green's shocked expression, she thought for a moment and said seriously, "This is not an ethereal legend! Some of the scholars of Dragon Heart have found through records and comparisons that the winter has indeed come earlier and colder in recent years. ”

Is it the time of the Xiaoice River?" Green thought as he lifted his chin.

This year's weather is indeed a little colder than usual, with leaves falling, seabirds flying south, and even forest animals stockpiling food for the winter.

All signs indicate that winter is coming.

It's just that it's hard to leave the homeland, and if you choose to leave, everything has to start from scratch. Moreover, this is still a large-scale migration involving more than 100,000 people, and many things are not something that he can decide alone.

"Where are you going to leave here?" Although Green felt that this idea was unrealistic, he couldn't help but ask, "Demon Continent?"

Mary shook her head and said, "The Demon Realm Continent can't do it, with our current strength, we can't gain a foothold there at all...... Actually, I want to talk about the Orc Continent. ”

The New World?Green couldn't help but nod, it was indeed a place full of opportunities now.

......

The candles on the menorah were about to burn out, and Mary was making her bed. Green patted his cold legs, stood up and was about to leave, when he accidentally saw something shiny roll out from under the pillow.

It was the metal cube he gave out in the first place.

Hearing footsteps behind her, Mary paused, and then she noticed the exposed metal cube.

Grimm rubbed the ring on his finger and couldn't help but think of when they first met.

He was silent for a while, and then whispered, "Why don't you move me first...... It's not warm inside the cave right now. ”

"Yes, good. Mary was stunned for a moment, then said in a nasal voice.

＊＊＊＊＊＊

As the leader of Tequita, Green's house, a small three-story building, was not located in the residential area under construction on Tequita, so his house was built relatively early, and the renovation of the house was completed early.

Early the next morning, when Green helped Mary move things in, Anne was washing the faces of a few little fairy dragons, although the little ones looked reluctant, but they could not resist Anne and they could only obediently line up.

Seeing that a beautiful young lady had come again, Anne hurriedly said hello, "Sister Mary, are you going to move in too?"

Mary nodded confusedly, then turned her head.

"Two days before this...... I let Helen already move in. Green was inexplicably a little weak-hearted, and immediately explained.

Mary stomped on Grimm with a blank face, and then walked upstairs without looking back.

Sweat...... Green smiled wryly and scratched his head, I didn't mean that.

If there's one happiest person with a new resident in the house, it's Pippi.

When it saw that the Furious Wind was following Mary, it rushed over in high spirits.

Top one, scratch it, rub it.

Then he burrowed around under the wide wings of the furious wind.

The proud Wind Slayer clearly didn't like such a noisy guy, and it stepped aside with its head held high.

Pipsqueak, the guy was surprisingly thick-skinned, and with a roll of its eyes, it leaned towards the Wind Slashing Dragon again, only this time it didn't succeed so easily.

Fury Wind suddenly pressed its head as it tried to rub it.

Pipsqueak stretched out his claws to scratch at Fury's body, but for a tall, long-legged Wind Slasher, it was a small short leg.

The black front paws scratched at the air weakly, but it didn't work.

Really touch the head to kill.
