Chapter 235: New Weapons

On January 1, 455 in the New World Calendar, the blizzard continued.....

In the new year, the battle for the Koso wedge continues.

This morning, Caleb specially asked Bai Xue to cook a pot of rice balls.

This is also the first Chinese New Year in fifteen years since Caleb came to another world.

There is no concept of the New Year in another world, and a slightly similar festival should be the Winter Snow Festival.

The so-called Winter Snow Festival is on January 15th, when people pray together.

And the god of prayer is naturally Agrea.

As the goddess of light and the sun, Agrea has some of the power of the seasons.

People will pray on this day for the light to come and let the winter pass as soon as possible.

After that, the families will prepare a sumptuous meal, and there will be a grand celebration in the streets.

This can be regarded as an otherworldly version of the New Year.

With a smile on her face, Bai Xue brought bowls of rice balls to the table, and she was busy with everyone's breakfast.

The sweet aroma quickly attracts everyone's attention.

"What is this? It's so cute. ”

Ena clutched the table with both hands, looking at the rice balls curiously.

Caleb sat on a chair beside him, scooped up a rice ball and ate it, the corners of his mouth hooked.

The taste in the memory is really good, and people can't help but smile.

He looked at the curious crowd and said:

"This is called tangyuan, and eating tangyuan during the New Year has the meaning of reunion and consummation, symbolizing the happiness of family reunion and good luck."

Caleb smiled and introduced the meaning of the rice balls, although in his previous life he had only eaten them in an orphanage.

"There's food like this, I never knew about it."

Betty took the bowl with a curious expression, scooped up the dumplings inside, and took a bite.

The sweet taste burst out of her mouth, and the warmth that welled up from the bottom of her heart made her look of enjoyment.

It's a treat to be able to eat such hot and delicious food on such a cold day.

"It's delicious, it's sweet, it's delicious."

And Ena on the side has already entered the dry rice mode.

"Delicious! Delicious! ”

Ena held the spoon and held the pot without stopping.

In the blink of an eye, a pot of glutinous rice balls was almost eaten.

Betty came back to her senses, turned her head and exclaimed:

"Ahh Ena has been eaten by you! ”

"Hey, hey, don't pay attention....."

Ena touched her head and smiled, and the corners of her mouth were still stained with traces of brown sugar water.

Caleb took out his handkerchief and wiped Ena's mouth dotingly.

"No one is robbing you again, why are you eating so fast?"

"Let's eat as much as you like, Shirayuki has prepared a lot."

Bai Xue brought out another pot of steaming rice balls.

"Oh! All right! ”

Ena raised her hands in the air, cheered and threw herself into the battle to destroy the rice balls.

"Don't be busy, let's eat together."

Betty looked at the busy Snow and grabbed her hand to sit down.

Ena hurriedly picked up the bowl and scooped a full bowl in front of Bai Xue, and said with a smile:

"Yes, yes, yes, it's delicious to eat together!"

"Alright, Lady Betty, Lord Ena."

Bai Xue held the bowl and smiled sweetly.

Caleb sat on the side and watched the people eating rice balls together, and couldn't help but show a warm smile on his face.

He went to the window and looked at the courtyard, where a magic circle had been set up.

More than a dozen Bai Xue set up a huge iron pot in the courtyard and were boiling rice balls.

Xiaolong, who was lying obediently in the yard, wagged his tail and looked at the rice balls in the iron pot expectantly.

On the side were Qian Ming and An Jie, who were chasing each other, and the sound of laughter and slapstick echoed in the courtyard.

The first two patriarchs, Hei and Hotaru, were lying quietly on the trees flashing red and blue light to each other.

"Everyone, you can eat!"

A white snow carried a plate and placed it on a wooden table in the courtyard.

There were several bowls of rice balls of different sizes on it, which were for several small messengers.

The remaining cauldron was brought to Xiaolong by the snowymen.

"Whew-"

The little dragon let out a happy sound, and a pair of paws carefully picked up the iron pot.

And the other demons flew onto the table.

Millet, which has been floating in the air, has also condensed together to become a colorful villain.

"It looks like it's going to be lively over there, too."

Caleb looked at the harmonious demons in the courtyard and smiled slightly.

Betty came to Caleb's side and looked out the window with his arms around him.

The blizzard outside the barrier didn't stop, and hordes of flying ships still lined up above the city walls.

The fighting continued, but the city was deserted.

"There's no one left."

"Yes, the only people who are still in the city are those soldiers and adventurers, and then us."

Caleb nodded, and the kingdom was decisive in this regard.

After Caleb provided information, part of the army began to take the incapable population to nearby cities to settle down.

Although the weather was a heavy snowstorm, it must have been a tough thing to do to move so many people.

But it's better than being swept up in the battle and dying.

"I don't know how many people will die......"

Caleb's whispering to herself was heard by Betty, who held Caleb's hand and rested her head on his shoulder.

"No problem, didn't you provide a lot of warm clothes and supplies?

I have also sent so many bugs to escort me, and enough has been done.

It is impossible for one person to protect them all. ”

Caleb closed his eyes and saw through the spiritual web a procession that stretched to the horizon.

This is the evacuation team of the Corso Wedge, up to 10 million people.

The ability to transfer so quickly was also thanks to Caleb's help.

The long swarms of halberds are advancing steadily in the blizzard.

The sound of heavy footsteps could not even be drowned out by the wind.

Each halberd sat dozens of people.

Each of them was covered in thick clothing except for a pair of eyes.

And among the clothes on these people's chests, there was a faint red light.

That's the bug that Caleb sent to escort them, the glowworm.

Glowworms that have a persistent fever are able to maintain their body temperature.

"At least it looks good for now."

................

On January 3, 455 A.D., in a blacksmith's shop at Corsowedge.......

Dingβ€”β€”! Dingβ€”β€”! When β€”β€”!

The scattered sparks reflected Caleb's face red, and the hammer in his hand fell again and again.

There was a heavy sound of striking iron.

The metal block on the anvil was wrecklessly deformed under Caleb's thumping, and was soon folded out of the runes he needed.

Ding Ding Ding –

Whoop –

With the built gloves completely finalized.

α›αš’αš±αš³α›žα›ƒα›‡α›αš±αš³α›ƒα›‡

A line of shimmering runic text appeared on top of the gloves.

The all-black gloves look very low-key, with a slight dark golden glow.

Dingβ€”β€”

"Congratulations on completing the achievement mission: Forge Expert; Successfully forge an heirloom weapon; Bonus XP +1,000,000;Marketplace Points +1,000,000"

"Your level has been increased, and your current level is lv45"

"Did it work?"

Caleb gasped and smiled as he looked at the gloves fished out of the water.

"Heirloom... It's really forged. ”

Caleb caught the fist gloves in the air and put them directly on his hand.

The glove shrank to the size of Caleb's palm, as if it were alive.

Caleb clenched his fists, feeling the power surging through his body.

"I see, multiple runes will reduce the power of a single rune."

With a few flicks of his fist, a transparent barrier appeared in front of Caleb.

Caleb nodded, a hint of disappointment on his face.

The runes did not live up to expectations, with slight cuts in all aspects.

However, it is also a hand-me-down weapon, and its power is still stronger than that of ordinary weapons.

"At present, we can only go so far, and it should be enough.

If it's a name, it's called 'Shattered Star Martial Arts'. ”

Caleb took off the gloves in his hand, which were the new gloves for Ena.

After attaching the runes, the gloves are also blessed with several special abilities.

In the words of the game, it is the attribute bonus and attack effect.

If you have a properties panel, it's pretty much .....

"Shattered Star Martial Arts

Heirloom weapons

Attack: 500

Defense: 500

Strength Attribute +30%

+40% CON

+50% Strike Speed

Ignore Defense +20%

Energy Regen +40%

Spawn shields when attacking"

Although the bonuses are very miscellaneous and not particularly strong, it is also a good weapon.

In addition to this, Caleb also prepared new weapons for Shirayuki.

Caleb looked at the weapon lying on the table next to him, it turned out to be a pair of pistols!

The black and red color scheme fits Bai Xue's military uniform.

A fiery red rose is skillfully spread over the entire body of the spear, which looks very artistic.

He picked up the pistol and played with it a few times with satisfaction.

"I didn't expect to really create a pistol, and the power of the runes is really amazing."

It is said to be a pistol, but in fact, the internal structure is completely different.

Inside, except for the barrel and trigger, most of it is actually solid.

If Andrew had been there at the scene, he might have exclaimed.

Because it's almost exactly the same as the latest runic weapon forged by the dwarves.

Except that one is a rifle and the other is a pistol.

No, maybe Caleb's was superior, because his two pistols could fire in bursts.

In previous tests, Caleb was very satisfied with the power of this pistol.

As Caleb admired the two weapons he had built, Ena pulled Snow open the door of the blacksmith's shop.

As soon as she entered the door, Ena couldn't wait to ask:

"Brother, how are my gloves?"

The new weapon is as exciting to her as a child is about to get a new toy!

"It's just in time, let's try it."

Caleb laughed and picked up his gloves and threw them directly at Ena.

Ena hurriedly reached out and fished it out, and the gloves were successfully caught.

As soon as he started his hand, a heavy weight suddenly came from the gloves.

Ena couldn't help but shrink her eyes, and her hand hurriedly clenched into her fist.

"It's heavy! Brother? ”

Ena couldn't help but glance up at Caleb, wondering why she was doing it so hard.

Although this weight she was able to pick up and wield it with ease.

But with such a heavy glove, the speed of the punch will be slower.

"Hahaha..... The name is 'Shattered Star Martial Arts' with a total weight of 300kg, and it is made of pure Olija steel.

Put it on and try it, I think you'll love it. ”

Ena did not doubt that she had him, and wore it directly on her hand.

As the gloves shrank, they quickly became the right size.

Suddenly, a shocked expression appeared on Ena's face.

Strength poured out of the gloves and blessed.

And the originally heavy boxing gloves were as light as cotton, as light as nothing.

"It's so strong, my strength has strengthened by at least three percent......"

Ena hugged Caleb with excitement on her face and kissed him on the cheek.

"Thank you, brother!"

With that, Ena ran out to try out the power of the new gloves.

"Really..... If you want to test weapons, you don't have to be in such a hurry. ”

Caleb shook his head with a smile and turned to look at the snow.

"My lord, is this the weapon of the white snow?"

Bai Xue's eyes were fixed on the pistol, and she asked without raising her head.

Apparently, Bai Xue was attracted by the pistol on the table.

"That's right, this is your new weapon, the Scarlet Rose."
