A few days later.

Through the joint efforts of the military and civilians of Reston Village, the nearby defense works have been initially improved.

In particular, the high walls of the walled village made the surrounding environment completely different.

If you pass by, you may mistakenly think that this is a military fortress rather than an ordinary village!

But the question is, why was Reston able to perfect these defenses so quickly?

One of them is the cooperation between the soldiers and the villagers, but no matter how hard they try, they can't build a wall in a few days, right?

It's not scientific!

But it's magical.

Because the captain of the garrison camp in Reston, Sir John Thomas Liszt, was a knight who knew magic!

He's not Xavier's senior sister, but he can do magic!

When Xavier asked him, the captain simply replied:

"Isn't it reasonable for a knight to know magic?"

For a moment, Xavier had a sense of absurdity, even if he already knew that magic did exist, and the three views still had a feeling of being reshaped.

However, considering the presence of melee mages, it seems that the magic knight is not a big deal?

It's just that the magic here seems to be different from what he heard in his previous life, magicians (or knights) don't need to chant spells at all, they don't need to make any gestures, they don't need to use magic wands, they only need to drive magic to use all kinds of magic!

Throw this configuration to another world.,It's estimated that all magicians are the protagonist template.。

However, although the magic of this world only needs magic power to drive, most people's magic power and spiritual power are simply not enough to communicate the elements, and with magic, naturally a magical civilization cannot be born.

Even the captain herself can only use the lowest level of magic, and Miss Hannah's talent is even worse, she can only activate the inferior magic seal, the so-called 'Alder', or 'Arden'.

Of course, they are still better than Xavier, at least their magic will not be 0/0......

Anyway, under the captain's magic, the brick wall has become stronger and stronger, and unless the barbarians come out with a 'cannon to bombard the damn thing', it is probably impossible to physically break the wall.

Not to mention the refugees, unless all the soldiers stood still and let them fight, they would not have succeeded in attacking the village, and looting was nonsense.

As for the grain, there is no need to bother, because it is the autumn harvest recently, and all kinds of grain girls in the field have been harvested by the farmer's uncle.

The grain in the warehouse can also feed the whole village for three months, and the nearby water source is also protected accordingly, at least for a short time, even if the village is besieged, it can last for at least a few weeks.

In other words, as long as they don't get breached by the wall, the food and water in the village can keep all the soldiers and villagers alive for at least a month.

And a month's time was enough for reinforcements from the south to come to support.

In a state of optimism, the village of Reston faced their first challenges, not by enemy troops, but by a group of refugees.

~~~~~~

Not far outside the village of Reston.

The crowd was surging, the refugees were dressed plainly or in tatters, some dragged their families with them, and some walked alone, their eyes were blank, like leeks, and the peasants cut them all away.

Among them, a blonde teenager with a scar on his face is dragging his sister tightly to prevent her from getting lost in the refugee pile.

At the same time, he was also very vigilant, as if he was in a dark forest, and he was suspicious of everyone around him.

From his memory, we know that his name is Schuyler and his sister is named Natalie, the two are from a small town in the north of Gournia, and his parents died when he was young, and the older man had to take on the responsibility of raising the whole family alone.

Later, after a period of struggle, he finally broke through some eyes and opened a bakery in the town, where he was able to earn enough money to send his sister to school.

And then it all went ruined.

The First Legion led by General Humphrey was completely wiped out by the barbarians, and Skyler had no choice but to give up everything, take his sword and some money, and flee with his sister all the way to the south.

Along the way, they met many refugees like themselves, and also met some men who relied on their own force to dominate the refugee group, although Skyler had enough strength to fight them, but he did not do so, but chose to cling to them.

He was not afraid of fighting, but he was afraid that if he died, his sister would be bullied by others.

Today, they saw a village in the distance, and although the towering walls let the refugees know that it was not to be provoked, the hunger in their stomachs still forced them to go for help, hoping that the good Samaritans inside would give them some food.

As a result, it may be that the gods blessed, and the good Samaritans inside really gave them a little food, but according to their methods.

Groups of well-armed soldiers brought large vats containing a mixture of millet, millet and beans, and although the appearance was not impressive, how could a person who was already hungry endure it?

So in an instant, the refugees who had been huddled together rushed to the front, running faster than the students after school, and the virtue of humility no longer existed at this moment, only the greed of the heart and the thirst for food.

Skyler wanted to join in and bring some food for his sister, who had been hungry for a few days, but the crowd was so crazy that he was still pushed aside even though he had been trying to move forward.

Even, there are some impulsive people who push them away at once, so that they can grab food smoothly.

"Damn! Natalie is hungry again!"

Instantly, his concern for his sister became Skyler's motivation, and he was ready to push others away to fulfill himself like the people he hated.

However, at this time, the surrounding bystanders dispatched, and the black-haired and brown-eyed soldiers led by him pulled out their steel swords and shouted at everyone with their sharp blades:

"Line up well, or you will be killed!"

Along with his words, dozens of soldiers behind him also drew their steel swords, and the sharp light pierced the eyes of the refugees, calming their thoughts.

Originally, a few people planned to resist and argue for their rights, but when they saw such a neat sword, the greed in their hearts immediately vanished.

"We're in line! We're in line!"

Under the compulsory supervision of the soldiers, the refugees were forced to line up, among which the elderly, weak, women and children were given priority distribution, and Skyler's sister Natalie finally received enough food to eat.

Looking at his sister's happy smile, Skyler couldn't help but look at the black-haired soldier who took the lead.
