554. Before the Harvest Festival
Surdak took away these extremely enthusiastic knights of the guard battalion at the gates of the city.
After a moment's delay, he rode his horse back to the city of Hylandsa.
When they were in the city of Voljmara on the maca plane, this group of guards battalion knights did not say anything grateful, but after a few months, they ran to Constantinople, and these guards battalion knights in Constantinople showed their gratitude to themselves.
Declining the enthusiasm of the Baron Jude, Surdak's heart became warm at this moment.
On both sides of the avenue is a dense woodland, and there are some pear trees all over the roadside, and some green pears have grown on the trees, only a few pears hang on the top of the trees that are out of reach, and a gust of wind blows through the woodland, and the heavy pears shake vigorously at the top of the trees.
The afternoon sun was still a little hot, and Surdak patted the horse on the stock vigorously, and the Gubolai horse spread its hooves on the forest road and ran forward with all its might.
……
Constantinople has only half of the moat, and the other half is a small cliff outside the walls.
In order to divert the river from a distance of several kilometers, the residents of Constantinople spent several months digging a canal, which is one of the most important sources of water for Constantinople, and almost half of the inhabitants rely on it for their daily life.
Lady Annabella's handmaidens returned to the castle in a magical caravan.
Iman. Owen and Jude stood by the moat at the gate of the city and chatted.
"Hey, Iman, how did you come to know Baron Surdak?" Jude leaned against the drawbridge railing by the moat and bowed to Iman. Owen asked.
The suspension bridge overhangs the river and is made of oak wood with hemp ropes attached to the handrails of each railing.
Above the city gate is a line of Constantinople writing, and below the text is the Owen family crest made of one-meter-diameter magical red copper.
"He was going to sell some sulphur mines, and it is said that he found a sulphur mine in the territory, so he came to me and planned to sell it to the workshop." Iman. Owen glanced at Jude, he had known Jude for a long time, and knew how proud this knight was that he was about to touch the threshold of the second turn.
He paused and asked Jude, "By the way, Jude, is this Baron Surdak famous?" ”
Jude reached out and touched the thick stubble on his chin and nodded slightly.
He had to admit that the light of this knight from the city of Hylanza in the city of Vožmara had overshadowed the excellent performance of all the knights of the guard battalion.
Jude lowered his head and glanced at his right rib, he was wearing the standard armor of the guard battalion, but he could still feel the scar, and every time it rained, the scar would ache faintly.
He remembered the battles in Walmart City, the madness of those giant hellhounds taller than calves.
Jude said, "At least in the city of Vozhmara, you don't know what he did in the city of Vozhmara...... At that time, our Constantinople Guard Battalion, the Pleos City Guard Battalion, and the Hylanza Guard Battalion were combined into one battle group, and when fighting against the Hellhounds, their combat squad was always the most eye-catching existence of the war group, of course, there was no shortage of such brave knights on the battlefield, and the other squads performed very well, which alone did not deserve everyone's admiration. ”
"But he is also a knight with holy light skills, as long as someone is injured, you can come to him - everyone, minor injuries do not need any reward, serious injuries need to pay a hellhound head, his holy light skills are very effective, as long as it is not a particularly serious injury, he can almost treat it."
"He didn't care if the wounded were native natives or reinforced knights, he only saw the difference between serious and minor injuries."
"Now, if you mention the name of this Baron Surdak in the guard barracks, there must be many people who remember him, but how do I think he used to be a civilian knight, when did he become a noble baron? Could it be that he concealed his identity before? Jude was puzzled.
The bootleggies of the battle in the city of Vłřímara, at the end of each battle, there is always a tent in the Haylanza guard camp that is lit to the end.
Iman. Owen seemed to remember some information at once, and hurriedly said: "I know him, he is the most meritorious knight in the Pena Provincial Guard Battalion?" When my uncle returned, he was full of praise for the knight in the city of Highlandza, it turned out to be him! But I don't think there's anything special about him! ”
"Maybe, maybe we'll have a chance to meet on the battlefield in the future." Jude said lightly.
"What? Is there another war? "Iman. Owen asked, somewhat surprised.
Years of conquest have led to a large imbalance in the ratio of men and women in the population of the Grimm Empire, and now there are dimensional wars breaking out all over the country, and most of the legions of the archdukes with heavy troops are stuck in the quagmire, and the main force of the Bena legion owned by the Duke of Newman in Bena Province is trapped in the Warsaw plane.
"It's not so fast, but there have been frequent plane wars recently, and the Green Empire will definitely make some moves, at least it will blow the horn of counterattack in the most critical planes, just watch." Jude's eyes lit up with war and he said categorically.
……
Surdak rushed back to the village of Wall, just in time for the harvest festival.
The wheat in the field has been harvested, only the vegetable fields carved out on the other side of the tidal flats are still full of cabbage and cauliflower, and the leaves on the pumpkin vines have gradually turned yellow, revealing orange and yellow pumpkins.
Pumpkins and cabbage are piled up on a platform in the center of the village square, and the women of the village are decorating the village square, and there is a festive atmosphere everywhere.
The wheat straw stacks on the threshing floor are like spires of domes, and this spring, the wheat fields are fully irrigated, so when the autumn harvest comes, these ears are more compact and full, and the grains on the tips of the ears are all sized.
This winter, without thinking about the catastrophe of the blizzard crushing the house, the women of the village have begun to go into the mountains to collect all kinds of mountain goods, and without the pressure of famine, the things they brought back from Oak Ridge are much more beautiful.
Gubo Laima stopped in front of the security station, not far from the reservoir construction site is organizing the main grouting of the fourth-level reservoir, and the plywood is built like a thick city wall. A larger arc is formed on the outside of the cistern.
The busiest in the village were the four-wheeled wagons, which were still driving into the reservoir site one after the other.
Over the course of the year, I don't know how many broken axles were used up just by the engraved magic pattern, but fortunately, this thing was easy to buy in the city of Highlandsa, and although it was a little expensive, Surdak never saved money on it.
Standing on the terrace on the second floor of the police station, Samira greeted Surdak in the courtyard, and it seemed that she was standing there waiting to greet Surdak, and after saying hello, she returned to her room wearing a linen tube skirt to sleep.
Andrew limped out of the police station and smiled at Surdak.
Most of the bandages on his body have been removed, this indigenous warrior is strong, and has the strength of a mid-turn period, his own self-healing power has far surpassed that of ordinary people, only half a month of injury is better, seeing Surdak rushing back from outside, he can't wait to beg Surdak to let him ride a horse to the barren land for a circle, these days he stayed in the police station to eat and sleep, sleep and eat, and his body is about to have an extra layer of thick armor.
Surdak didn't object, looked at the bandages wrapped around his body, easily jumped off his horse, took out a brand new set of guard battalion armor from his magic waist bag, and put it on him one by one.
With a set of heavy full-covered armor, Andrew immediately turned into a big stupid bear, not to mention running and jumping to fight, and even walking in the yard seemed a little difficult, so Andrew's idea of patrolling outside was dispelled by Surdak.
Aphrodi was wearing light gauze pajamas, her elbows resting on the railing, and when she leaned down, her chest appeared in the shape of a clear droplet, and her pajamas swayed gently.
If it weren't for the sheer identity of the succubus hidden between the two large bags bulging out behind her back and the crooked corners between her long messy hair, Surdak would have thought she was more like a noblewoman who had just woken up in the inner courtyard of some noble.
In the spirit of a magical pact of equality and mutual assistance, Aphrodite became less and less concerned about her image in front of Surdak.
Surdak took the plunge and climbed to the second-floor terrace and sat down on the rattan chairs on the terrace, which had a great view and just enough to see the whole of the village of Wall.
The succubus Aphrodite lay on her side on a wicker chair opposite Surdak, her nightdress barely hiding the contours of her body.
So that Surdak can only keep making psychological hints to himself:
She's a succubus!
She's a succubus!
She's a succubus!
"Haven't you been doing anything in the village lately?" Surdak turned his head away and looked at the top of the oak table in front of the wicker chair.
Aphrodite blinked her big purple grape-like eyes and said with a smile on her face: "Fortunately, it's just that the new magician from the Dark Moon Gate is more timid, and he only rode the magic sword around the village of Wall twice in the evening, and then never appeared again." ”
"When?" Surdak asked in surprise.
"About five days ago." Aphrodi said very casually.
"How can you assume that this is a mage from the Darkmoon Gate?" Surdak asked, confused.
"Of course I do! Because in addition to flying around on the magic handle, he also likes to cross portals......" Aphrodite snapped her fingers and told Surdak her reasoning.
Listening to the succubus Aphrodite, the person riding the magic is really likely to be a magician of the Dark Moon Gate.
Finally, Aphrodite told Surdak that the ogre Gulitum was no longer in the mood to herd sheep in the North Ditch Meadows, and was counting the days of the harvest festival with his fingers crossed every day.
Surdak waved his hand to indicate that he understood.
After learning about the situation of the police station in the past few days, he got up and walked down the terrace, and rode the Gubolai horse, which was gnawing grass by the bush wall of the courtyard, intending to rush home.
"Hey, Captain!" Aphrodi stood on the terrace and called Surdak to stop.
The last rays of sunlight came through her at dusk, making her look like a silhouette in the sun.
"Uh, what?" Surda grabbed the reins of the horse and turned to ask.
"Are you discriminating against succubi?" Aphrodite's eyes were filled with a narrow smile.
