Passing through Guò Waibao is equivalent to officially leaving Snow Lotus City.

But don't think it's going to be a barren mountain range. In fact, there are a lot of fields, and although it is winter and few people can be seen, there is still a field covered with snow.

"Why don't people just build their villages near farmland?"

Noticing that there were only fields and no people, Leona felt a little strange.

"People live in Snow Lotus City, and when the planting season comes, they go out of the city during the day to farm and come back at night. Well...... I understand you, but you see, Leona-no one likes to be woken up at night when she goes to bed and wakes up to find a circle of orc axemen standing next to her. But if you dare to build a house outside the city to rest, you will encounter such a thing, because it is not protected by the walls of the outer fort. ”

Eden patted the girl on the shoulder, then explained.

"Hey, then why don't you just build the outer fort here?"

According to Leona's idea, it would be nice to enlarge the walls of the outer fortress and enclose these fields as well.

"That's because it can't be drawn, you see, how vast the fields are, but unfortunately the yield is not high, and if you expand the outer fort to guard these fields, the cost is obviously not proportional to the income you can get. ”

Expanding the outer fort is a big project, so in the face of Leona's question, Lea is thinking about what Leona's expression will be if Isabella asks the other party to open a list of the money needed to expand the outer fort.

"But then again, how do you deal with the orcs? If I'm not mistaken, their annual massive raids are for this food, right?"

However, there is also something that makes Leah wonder here, you must know that a large part of the reason why the orcs will attack is to grab things, and the outer fort obviously can't stop them from grabbing food, because the fields are just like what you see now outside the outer fort.

"Well, we're going to build a lot of defensive posts in the fields, you see, there's one right there, and in the months leading up to the harvest season, these fortifications will become more numerous, and there will be barricades and traps, densely packed into a makeshift line. ”

In response to Leah's question, Georgie pointed to a tower-shaped object in the distance. In the fields, you can see many such buildings.

These towers usually provide protection for farmers working in the fields, and if an orc attack is encountered, it is a good idea to hide inside, with bows and arrows and beacons on them to send a distress signal while defending. When it comes to war, it's a great place for formally trained archers to show their skills.

In addition to military facilities, there are several chapels where people can rest and receive simple healing if someone is injured.

And at this moment, the destination of Leah and the others is such a small church, because it is winter, so there is no pastor here, far away, Alec can stand alone against the wall.

Seeing Leah and the others coming, Alec straightened up and bowed to this side.

"Hey, I didn't expect you to duel with a warrior apprentice, maybe you got knocked on the head by an orc that day, Alec?"

"I feel the same way, and to be honest, this duel is not wise, but you are a wounded now, and the wounded love to do stupid things, so I forgive you. ”

The relationship between the several people seems to be very good, and seeing Alec, Eden and Georgie walk up and joke.

"Ah...... I didn't intend to do this, but I thought my words at the time must have hurt this lady, so she wanted to duel me in turn...... I have to say that you are a brave man, miss, and it is indeed a bit inappropriate to say those things in front of a brave man, so I beg your pardon for my faux pas. ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Alec bent over Leona in apology.

"Huh...... No, no, no, and please forgive me, Mr. Alec. I didn't pay attention to you and hit you, that's why I ......."

Just like Ka#Sex Novelhttp://wWw./class12/1.html Lian said, Alec seems to blame himself for hurting Leona's self-esteem, but for Alex's apology, Leona seems a little helpless, in her opinion, it is obvious that she bumped into Alec to cause such an ending, so the two of them personally apologized to each other dramatically and said non-stop.

"Okay, although it seems that the conflict between us has been resolved, but unfortunately the duel continues, and I can't tell anyone that I went to the dueling arena and apologized to a first-class warrior apprentice and came back. Although I was hurt, to be honest, it hurt really badly, so even if it was to this point, it wouldn't damage my reputation. But unfortunately, as long as this fact goes around the city, it will be spread into a slanderous rumor, intentionally or unintentionally. ”

In the end, Alec was the first to draw the sword at his waist.

"Originally, I also used a two-handed sword, but you see, now the slightest movement of my right shoulder will make my heart hurt, but it doesn't matter, I am not bad at using a one-handed sword with my left hand, so you have to pay attention. ”

After Alec finished speaking, Leona also drew her sword and put on a posture, it stands to reason that the two-handed sword tactics are quite offensive, but Leona's posture is a defensive posture.

"Ah...... This must be a smart lady......"

Seeing the other party's actions, Alec immediately understood Leona's intentions, so he whispered to himself. But unfortunately, he guessed wrong, Leona is a 9, note that it was Karen who came out.

The witness to the duel, Leah, nodded, and the two began a formal confrontation, the sound of swords clashing in the endless field.

Regardless, it was a battle that knew the outcome in advance, and it was so tedious that it almost dozed off for Georgie and Eden. Leona has basically been defending, it stands to reason that it is stupid to use a bulky two-handed sword to defend against a one-handed sword, but Alec has no intention of breaking through the opponent's defense, the two have been ping pong for a long time, and the battle situation still seems unremarkable, and Alec even found time to point out a few mistakes in Leona's steps during the period.

"Alright, Miss Leona, if you think you're satisfied, we'd better stop, hell, I think the wound on my shoulder seems to be cracked. ”

There are usually three outcomes of a duel, we have already said. One of them is a draw, and the decision of a tie is also very simple, after a certain amount of time, the challenger thinks that he is "satisfied", and he can propose a draw.

"Of course, Mr. Alec, I agree with your proposal. ”

As soon as Alec finished speaking, Leona swung her sword and forced Alec back, and then jumped backwards herself.

Pulling away, Leona pointed the tip of her sword at the ground, signaling to stop.

And just like that, both nodded at each other, and a duel that barely counted as a duel was over.
