Chapter 174: Central Town
Chapter 174: Central Town
The sky was gray, with the occasional small snowflake, and the wind swept away the white fields with a chilling cold.......
There were twenty-seven people in total, twenty-seven knights and swordsmen of the clan whose strength was above the silver rank, and they were in three rows in front of Lorist, each wearing chain mail and leather robes, and holding poles and skis in their hands. After more than ten days of crawling and falling in the snow behind the manor, everyone here finally mastered the basic skills of using skis.
Lorist checked their equipment and skis one by one, everyone knew how much risk it meant to leave the warm mountain villa in such a cold winter, but they had no choice, in order to protect the lives of more than 300,000 people in Fengle Yuanwodong from being threatened by the tide of demonic beasts, these twenty-seven family knights and silver swordsmen all chose to follow Lorist to Fengle Plain.
Joske, Bélunek, El, Yuri, Pat, Jim, Pete, Packo, as well as five Silver Knights and twelve Silver Swordsmen serving in the family armies, with the last two in line being Tiger Ross and Miss Bertha.
Tiger Rose looked at Lorist with a dead face, but Miss Baisha next to her was a little shy and lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Lorist.
Lorist was speechless......
God knows how these two goods looked at each other, and then hooked up together without shame. No wonder Lorist wanted to go back to Maple Grove Villa for the winter, and said that he wanted to see the beautiful scenery of Maple Grove Villa, and left all the management of the ironclad lancers to his deputy, Knight Vasimma.
Return to Maple Grove Lodge. The thing is gone. And Lorist was busy with his baby son for the first two days. When I was free, I realized that Rose was gone. So everyone searched for it, only to find that this guy was busy rolling the quilt with Miss Baisha, and he hadn't come out of the bedroom for several days, and he didn't know that he was out of trouble......
Lorist guessed that she should have ordered Miss Baisha to lead the women's battalion garrison to escort the teams that handled the corpses of the monsters to the wasteland, so that she and Rose, who led the troops to sweep the monsters, met her, and then hooked up. No wonder Rose wanted to come to Maple Grove Villa with him for the winter, and he wondered, what kind of scenery did Maple Grove Villa have to see in winter? It turned out that the scenery to be seen was on Miss Baisha's bed......
Lorist does not like Miss Baisha, in terms of name, Miss Baisha is the fiancée of his deceased eldest brother in this life. Respect must be maintained. But the memories of the former owner of this body, Little Locke, did not bring him any family affection, but memories of being bullied as a child. Moreover, after Lorist returned to the family territory and became the new Norton family, several contacts with Miss Baisha were not very pleasant, and even hated this woman with a rude personality and thought she had little knowledge.
Miss Baisha is indeed a big beauty, not only has beautiful red hair, but also has a ******** figure and a good face. It's a pity that Lorist is not weak, nor is he one of those hanging dead houses who kneel down when they see beautiful women. He has his own aesthetic concept. Like when he gave Ingjerek's granddaughter Jasmine to Shi Fatzi, he has no love for the female Wenqing. Like a tsundere beauty like Miss Baisha, he is even more respectful.
Lorist likes a little jasper like his little maid, Irina. Or maybe it's an intellectual beauty like Miss Theresty. So when Lorist heard that Rose had been found under Miss Bertha's bed, he was relieved. The heart said that there could finally be one less trouble at home......
If there is no such thing, Miss Baisha can be regarded as Lorlist's sister-in-law no matter how she says, and Lorist has to treat her well in the face of the dead eldest brother anyway, which is why she has not been punished much for provoking Lorist several times. Now hooking up with Rose, she has only two choices, either marry Rose, or she can only be an ordinary family knight, and she can no longer call herself the fiancée of Lorlist's deceased eldest brother.
Lorist tapped Rose on the shoulder twice, didn't say anything more, and turned back to the front of the line.
"Jim, Pete, Wilson, Manjes. ”
Jim, Pete, and two other silver swordsmen walked out.
"The four of you go all the way to the Rock Castle, whether you can get in there or not is related to the lives of more than 300,000 new residents in the entire Fengle Plain, you must ensure that the news of the arrival of the Warcraft Tide is reported, and let Knight Schrader and Knight Bodfinger send people to help defend those villages and towns before the Warcraft Tide arrives. Please......" Lorist gave a knightly salute to the four.
"Please rest assured, we will get the news to Rock Castle as soon as possible. The four of them saluted in the same way.
In the past, it took six or seven hours to ride a fast horse from Rock Castle to Maple Grove Villa, a distance of nearly 100 miles. It's winter, the snow is closing the road, relying on manpower to use skis and snowboards to get on the road, plus the sky is dark, the four fields are vast, and it is very likely to lose their way or have an accident, you can imagine how dangerous this trip is, but these four people have no way back.
"Ross, Bertha, Pachko......"
The three of them walked to the front.
"The three of you will take five silver swordsmen to the side of Kitano Town in District 7, and you should pay attention to the three newly established cantonment villages in the east, which are the places most likely to encounter the tide of demonic beasts, and leave them to you. Lorist said.
"Yes, sir. ”
Rose clapped his fists in the chest: "Please rest assured, with my Tiger Ross here, the village will be safe." ”
Loris nodded and looked at the rest of the queue again: "For the rest, follow me and go to the central town of the sixth district first, and then to the easternmost village......"
"Adult ......"
"Locke......"
It was the maid Irina, who held the child and bowed deeply to Lorist: "I wish you a smooth journey and a safe ......
Locke is Miss Theresty: "Take care of yourself......"
Lorist waved at them and ordered, "Put on your skis and let's go!"
......
The wind whined in the ears like a bone-scraping steel knife.
Even if it's wrapped in a thick scarf. Put on a mask and a black veil. But his face was still numb from the cold. My eyes were also a little painful from the stimulation of the white sky......
Lorist pointed to a snow-covered hill in the distance, ready to lead the team to see what was going on around him.
"Woo ......" The wolf howl sounded on the high post, and dozens of cyan winter wolves the size of calves appeared on the high post.
Day, Lorist cursed, but he didn't expect that these carnivorous beasts that were hunting around the herbivorous demonic beasts had already used this high post as a base for hunting and observing food dynamics, so they could only avoid it at present.
With a wave of his hand, Lorist limped his skis and changed direction. Prepare to pass over the edge of the woods below the high hill, so as not to conflict with these winter wolves and affect everyone's speed. Lorist knew in his heart, since he met the winter wolf here, then the end of the Warcraft tide was naturally not far ahead, and he and the others had to make a big detour to get to the front of the Warcraft tide.
People do not hurt wolves, wolves harm people's hearts. Lorist wanted to avoid the wolves, but unexpectedly, with a few wolf howls on the high hill, one or twenty winter wolves came out of the woods below and surrounded them, and thirty or so winter wolves also came down from the high hill, and they rushed down very lightly on the snow. Although the body is large, there is a strange sense of rhythm between the movements. The paws sank less than an inch into the soft snow, and he was clearly experienced in snowwalking.
Lorist pulled down his mask and gathered his breath: "Joe, I'll give it to you in front, Yuri, Pat, give me the gun you are backing, Baker, continue to charge ......"
Joske took off his green longbow from his back and began to aim and fire, and as green lightning flashed by, a dozen winter wolves sprang out of the woods and fell head on the snow......
Bérunek pressed the pole the snow and the skis shot away, and the last three winter wolves leaped up and pounced on Berunek, and Josk fired the last arrow, piercing the head of a winter wolf in the air and sending it a meter away. But there was nothing he could do about the remaining two winter wolves, because they were being blocked by Bérunek's figure.
Unhurried, Bérunek handed the pole of his right hand to his left, and then drew his sword, and in a flash of golden swords, the two winter wolves that pounced turned into four sections, and fell to the snow with dirty blood.
The howl of the wolf on the high post became more and more terrible, and the winter wolf that rushed down from under the high post had already quickly approached the three of Lorist who were standing still......
When the first winter wolf was less than forty meters away from Lorlist, Lorist also launched, and one after another spears shot out of his hand, and the howls of the winter wolf were continuous......
Thirty-four throwing guns, thirty-four winter wolves, and the last throwing spear inserted into the head of the winter wolf was less than seven meters away from the three people......
The wolf howl on Takaoka continued, but it had turned into a whimper.
Picking up his pouch with two throwing guns left, Lorist said to Pat and Yuri, "Let's go." ”
Pat asked, "Won't those winter wolves above chase after them again?"
Yuri replied: "No, the demon wolf is a very smart demonic beast, just now these winter wolves who were ambushed in the woods and pursued have all been ambushed, and the winter wolves on the high hill have realized that we are powerful and cannot be defeated by them, so they will not come to die again." If you hear the wolf howl as if it is crying, it means that they will not pursue us anymore, otherwise the wolf howl will be a very short and urgent howl, which means urging all the wolves to speed up their actions and not let the prey escape. ”
Yuri was a steppe herder from the Khanate of Havestan and knew the habits of wolves. Although one is a steppe demon wolf and the other is a northland winter wolf, the wolf nature is the same, and the two are not far from there.
What Lorist didn't expect was that the circle he circled would take two days to reach the central town of the Sixth District, mainly because the tide of demonic beasts began to stop maintaining formation after the Maple Grove Villa, but spread around, stopping and looking for lichen moss covered by snow to eat.
When Lorist and the others eliminated a lone golden-veined snow leopard and climbed a high cliff to look into the distance, what appeared in front of them was no longer the white mangmang world, but a herd of herbivorous monsters that stretched to the edge of the sky and foraged for food......
The Silver Knight stationed in the central town of the Sixth District is named North, he and Josque are old acquaintances, originally the captain of the garrison of Josque's adoptive father, Baron Umado, who was seriously wounded and captured, and was thrown into the hard labor camp of Count Cobilly along with his family, until Lorist took Josk to pretend to be a messenger and attacked Earl Kobilly's stronghold of Gerdos City. After witnessing the death of Count Corbilly, he took his family to join the convoy and went north, and was promoted to the rank of family knight by Lorist in the convoy camp in Nadgas City for his meritorious service.
He was amazed that Lorist had led people to come in the snowstorm, and when Lorist briefly explained that the Monster Tide was coming, he hurriedly found a detailed map of the terrain of the Reclamation Village in District 6.
"My lord, because there are many hills and hills on our side in the east, we only arrange four tunken villages, according to what you said, if the monster tide is eaten while walking, it will take a few days to cross the hills and hills, and we can also notify the four tunken villages in front of us......" Before Noth finished speaking, he heard the sound of a horn warning from the city wall in the distance....
A panting garrison rushed in: "My lord, the horde of demonic beasts is coming, here ......"
Lorist sighed helplessly, the four villages in front of him were finished......
Seeing the overwhelming tide of monsters again is completely different from what you see at Maple Grove Villa, where you are standing on top of a high castle. But now it was on the mud wall of the central town, which was no more than seven meters high, and watching the hordes of demonic beasts approaching the central town step by step, Lorist could clearly hear the teeth of many garrison soldiers making a "clucking" sound......
"Something must be done to strengthen the walls immediately!" said Lorlist.
"But my lord, it's freezing cold, it's hard for us to dig for soil, and besides, we haven't reinforced...... materials" North's eyes as he looked at the tide of demonic beasts in the distance already revealed despair.
Lorist looked around, and finally fixed his eyes on the ice cubes hanging from the eaves of the row of wooden houses not far away.
"Splash the city wall with water, quickly, mobilize the people of the whole town, splash it with water outside the city wall, and if it freezes, it will become an ice city, and then the monster will be helpless against us" Lorist ordered eagerly.
The people around were in good spirits, and it was indeed a good idea, and the town was saved......
There were more than 13,000 people in the whole central town, in addition to the old man and children, two squadrons of family soldiers and one squadron of garrisons, and five or six thousand young men and women who could help. With the sound of the alarm horn, all the water was mobilized, and the buckets of water were carried to the city wall by the ladder, and then carefully poured down......
"Brother Baker, Joe, Yuri, and El, the four of you and the rest of you will immediately notify the remaining eight villages in the sixth district, and then notify the central towns and tunken villages in the fifth district, so that those towns and villages can immediately organize manpower to water the city like here, strengthen the city walls, and build all the towns and villages into ice cities, so as to ensure the safety of all the people's lives. Lorist commanded.
"What about you, my lord?"
"I'm going to stay here, I can't go, I'm going to leave here, and the hearts of people here will be scattered. Lorist replied in a low voice.
"Then I'm not leaving, I'll stay with the adults. Joske said.
"Locke, I'm the commander of the guard battalion, how can I leave your side as a family member......" El interjected.
"Then I'll keep ...... too"
"Nonsense, now is the critical moment to hurry up and inform those towns and villages to prepare, what is there to shirk. It was enough for me to keep Joe, El and Pat by my side. The rest of the people are led by Big Brother Baker, with Yuri as the deputy, and you discuss how to arrange to notify those places. You have to remember that you are the only one who has the skills to ski and can move in such a snowy day, and it is up to you to be able to notify everyone. Leave as soon as the Warcraft tide is not yet besieged, don't be alone on the road, pay attention to safety, please!"
Béruñek and Yuri, along with the team members who came out of Maple Grove Villa, stood up and saluted Lorist with the same solemnity: "Take care, sir......
