Chapter 116: The Field of Travel
The next day, at six o'clock in the morning, Lu Bin's biological clock woke him up naturally, and in the fireplace near the bed, only the dark red embers flickered brightly and faintly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
He found that the warmth that had been lingering in his room was gone, but fortunately he was close to the fireplace, and did not feel the bitter cold of winter.
Due to Lu Bin's movements, Nina Wilde in his arms was also awakened by alarm, and her long pale blonde hair, which was originally a little fluffy, was now like a chicken nest because she was sleeping on Lu Bin's arm.
The aristocratic girl is no longer the sick appearance of last night, her high fever has been successfully eliminated after careful treatment, and her brain is no longer dizzy and unable to distinguish the direction, and she immediately sat up directly, revealing her somewhat dazzling chest and graceful body curves.
Lu Bin was worried that her body had just healed, and she was still weak and couldn't stand the wind and cold, so she immediately reached out and pulled a woolen blanket and put it on the noble girl.
Nina Wild was not used to being taken care of, and was still a little struggling to resist, but when he saw the undeniable and determined eyes of "Lord Rez", he suddenly became weak and weak, and let his gentleness encircle him.
Lu Bin got out of bed barefoot, picked up a few pieces of dry firewood from the firewood pile next to the fireplace and put them on top of the embers, inserted them with an iron drill and played with them a few times, and the tiny tongue of fire came out again, greedily licking the food to his mouth.
Later, the orange-red flames permeated the dry wood, and the scorching heat of the eyebrows, like rising tides, came in waves, dissipating the cold that permeated the fireplace, and taking over the small room once more.
Lu Bin took a few steps tentatively, and felt good, so he nodded lightly to the aristocratic girl on the bed: "It's okay!"
Nina Wild's nose was sore at the moment, and she wanted to cry, but it was the first time she felt such intimate care from others, and she couldn't help but cover her face with her hands.
"Wait a minute, I'll go to the next room and bring you all your winter coats. ”
After speaking, Lu Bin got up and walked to the door, gently pushed open the door, the deserted hall downstairs had not moved, and now that the breath was like white smoke, he didn't want to waste time.
In the aristocratic girl's room, Lu Bin quickly found her backpack for clothes, and he didn't know which one Nina Wild liked to wear, so he simply picked up the backpack, went directly back to his room, and took the door with him.
Lu Bin took advantage of the aristocratic girl's change of clothes, clamped the black copper pot with iron tongs, put it on the fire of the fireplace, and poured it into the cold well water, about half full.
"The snow is so thick outside, and the streets in the center of town are sealed off that we can't count on breakfast in the tavern, and now we have a little to eat, and I'll have to go to the guild later...... Well, the road construction work in the wasteland should be stopped completely, and in order to prevent frostbite, I have to bring back all the guild members who have been placed there. ”
Nina Wild had no opinion, just quietly listened to the man with his back to him, "His broad shoulders are so solid, it is rare that he is willing to take on the burden of responsibility in this bad situation, he is really a trustworthy person who can be trusted for life." ”
The dry food distributed to the porter, such as scones and cured meat, had a little stock left by Lu Bin's side, and now he put them into a boiling copper pot and boiled them into a pot of salty and fragrant dough batter with a few stirrings.
Taking advantage of the heat of the freshly baked oven, the two of them had a simple breakfast at the speed of the storm, and Nina Wild felt much better, and it is estimated that she has completely recovered.
Lu Bin also noticed the noble girl's healthy face, but he still opened the book of traveling mages that only he could view, and nodded with satisfaction after confirming the status of the "entourage".
As for Nina Wild, all she could see was this: "Lord Rez" opened his spell book, and seemed to be memorizing the spell used today, and it was over in just ten breaths.
"That's amazing! This is his true strength, even if it takes less than one-tenth of the time of an ordinary spellcaster to memorize a spell. There are rumors outside that His Excellency Reze is a legend in the world, is it all true?"
The aristocratic girl had expectations and yearning for a better life in the future before, but no matter how hard she imagined it, she definitely didn't expect that her impulsive decision had already allowed her to get in touch with "Mage Rez" so closely, a spellcaster with unfathomable strength, and definitely a big dark horse that had never been seen before in her life.
While Nina Wild was still imagining, her hero and lifelong soul mate was stirring her mind over the waist-deep snow on the streets outside.
The water ring Lanya, a kind of artifact hole card, must not be used unless it is a last resort, so Lu Bin spent four points of mana to summon the fortress-level tree man from the "Elven Waste Capital Elondell".
The twelve-meter-tall friend of the forest, with its two-story alfalfa tavern just down to his waist, is a conspicuous benchmark in the snow-covered town of Blackwater.
Lu Bin didn't bother others, he directly kicked the treeman's knee and jumped on his shoulder, the surrounding terrain was no longer a reference, and he conveyed instructions to the treeman according to his memory.
Located two streets away from the bustling town of Blackwater, the porter's guild is adjacent to the renovated and elevated city walls, and the terrain and traffic are very eye-catching, and if it weren't for the channels and connections of the buyer Derek, it might not be possible to get it at a ridiculously cheap price.
The fortress-level tree man did not directly cross the houses between the streets, but walked forward on the street according to Lu Bin's instructions, walking with three people hugging each other and wrapping their stems and roots like stone piers.
"This scene is like the obstacle removal truck I saw before the crossing to shovel snow along the street, although the machine is more professional, but the tree man I summoned is more shocking!"
The development of events was exactly what Lu Bin expected, but one thing that he did not expect was that the tree man walked on the street and created a snow-free passage, which caused the people along the street to follow suit.
"Even though the snow fell overnight and covered the north, life still went on. The people's active shoveling of snow to open the way is definitely a good thing for others and themselves. Of course, if the official directly intervenes to organize, maybe the effect will be better...... Oh! The tribune gathered all the guards and police in front of the town hall, and he was ready to do it...... It is not a loss that the new pioneer territory, and the mobilization measures to deal with natural disasters are not only very mature, but also very efficient. I need to jot down these experiences so that I can use them in the future. ”
Lu Bin's current mind is very simple, which is to accumulate strength, learn from the successful experience of others, and wait for the right opportunity to apply to the Northern Council for a new pioneer territory in the name of reviving the Wild family.
Therefore, every bit of strength at his disposal is very valuable, especially the indispensable human resources part, those subordinates who work hard every day in the porters' guild with gratitude.
A more secret thought, hidden in Lu Bin's heart, never said it to others, he found that the soul bound "burial boneland" inadvertently harvested the power of faith, and extracted a gold-level god card.
Although it was only the theocratic weapon of the "messenger of the gods", it had already given him a new ability, which was like a red-hot iron in the middle of his chest, without the mark of a winged staff intertwined with two snakes.
Travel Realm: Turning back and jumping, it takes three points of mana to activate this sigil, and it can instantly enter the three transitional planes of the Shadow Realm, the Star Realm, and the Aether Realm, and naturally break away from the real world within ten breaths.
"I mastered the power of the realm in advance, and it all relied on this god card. The reentry jump plays a very critical role in both dimensional worlds for fighting and disengagement, and at least the survival aspect has been further strengthened and improved. If the enemy is forced into a corner, I can use this trick to get out. However, this involves the hole cards of the realm, and I would rather use them sparingly. ”
The porter's guild was a little far away, and even now, when the snow was all over the streets, it took a quarter of an hour for Lu Bin to have a fortress-level tree man open the way.
After Lu Bin arrived at the guild, he found that the situation was slightly better than he expected, especially the winter clothes prepared in advance, which did not make a single guild member fall ill from the cold.
The warehouse was converted into a guild quarter, with all the ventilation windows closed with thick sacks. As for grain reserves, there is still a lot of wheat that has not been hulled, flour is almost at the bottom, and vegetables are even more scarce.
The only thing that satisfied everyone was the beginning of the Frostfall Moon, when adventurers and mercenaries hunted a large number of beasts and stored a lot of dried meat. Although there were no spices to hide the smell and smell of the meat, the oily roasting of the fireplace over the campfire pleased the guild members, who did not eat meat regularly.
In order to appease their emotions, Lu Bin deliberately allowed the members of the guild to add one pound of meat to each meal, which was equivalent to exempting them from the fault of using the jerky reserve without authorization.
Of course, the punishment will inevitably be carried out, in order to ensure the fairness of the reward and punishment, Lu Bin personally issued instructions for the guild members to take the animal meat without permission, and bring the necessary tools to shovel snow in the streets outside.
"This is good for others and good for yourself, so I won't supervise you! Later, I'll take the Treants to the wasteland and bring back all the guild members who stayed there. ”
The huge porter guild, with more than a hundred members, was in a great mood, and his eyes were all on Lu Bin, after all, the respected "Lord Rez" was able to not give up even a single member when the weather became bad today.
They also began to have some confidence in their future, rather than using the porters' guild as a temporary stop to pass by.
At the same time, Lu Bin felt the faint vibration of the Book of the Traveling Mage, presumably because of his words and deeds just now, and let the buried bones reap a wave of pure faith power.
