The tail of autumn slipped away quietly.

A first snowfall, the dukedom was directly covered in a layer of silver.

Today is Winter Day.

Far north from the central city, there is a small village called 'Silver Pine Village'.

Silver pine is abundant here, hence the name of the village here.

"Hey! Sadie! Happy Winter Day. The guard knight guarding the entrance of Silver Pine Village greeted.

"Yo! Happy Winter's Day, Justin. Hey, hey, hey, this year you won the 'duty' lottery? Saidi, dressed in dark Mithril armor and cloaked in a crimson cloak, greeted his colleagues.

Every year before the Winter Festival, the knights stationed in the local area will hold a 'lottery meeting' in tacit understanding.

The remaining posts of the red lottery were drawn, and the rest of the knights could go to Constantinople for the holiday.

"yes, it's unlucky, last time Chief Balk pushed for the 'All-Signature Initiative', I should have voted for it."

Hearing this, the knight who called Sadie laughed, "I want to be a young man, you haven't lost to Captain Balk yet." ”

"That adult is a 'miracle man' who has won the lottery for 8 consecutive years."

Justin: "...... Please don't curse me, Sadie. ”

But he couldn't help but ask curiously: "So, what broke the curse of Lord Balk's continuous lottery?" ”

Sadie sneered: "Of course it's a promotion." That lord was promoted to the deputy head of the Cold Jade Knights, and he never participated in the duty lottery again. ”

Justin: "......"

"Anyway, I'm leaving, don't worry, I'll taste the delicacies of Constantinople for you, dance with hot girls for you, and ...... for you Shit! What's that?! ”

I saw a huge fireball rushing towards me.

The two knights reacted quickly and threw themselves to the ground cleanly, burying their heads in the falling snow.

When the scorching heat behind them disappeared, they dared to pull their heads out of the snow, "Enemy attack!" It's an enemy attack!! There are spellcasters! ”

Soon, a group of black-clad and masked guys popped out of the silver pine forest at the entrance of the village.

These people have a wide variety of occupations.

"I'm holding on, you go ring the bell!" Justin drew the knight's sword and pulled a flask from his belt.

The caster of the surprise attack on Silver Pine Village quickly chanted the incantation, and after the spell was finished, a long dragon of flame struck Justin's back.

Sadie reacted very quickly and threw the vial out casually.

I saw that the potion bottle filled with ice-blue liquid drew a perfect arc in the air, and was finally devoured by the flame dragon......

The reversal was instantaneous.

I saw that the place where the Flame Dragon disappeared from the potion bottle was frozen, and in the blink of an eye, the Flame Dragon became a 'Frozen Dragon'.

The power of ice touched the caster's staff along the magic, and before the caster could react, he was the melon that followed the vine.

Sadie Knight, who threw out the reagent bottle, didn't expect that this bottle of medicine would be so powerful.

"Shit...... Is this what I threw it?? ”

At this time, Justin had already rushed to the alarm bell, "Knock knock, knock knock, knock knock!" ”

A hurried alarm bell summoned all the knights patrolling the village.

However, the man in black who attacked Silver Pine Village at night sneered, "Heh! Do you think we're here with such a few people? ”

He whistled.

I saw hundreds of people come out of the woods where they were.

Justin exchanged a look with Sadie.

They ripped a necklace from their necks and poured out the black pill contained in the necklace pendant.

"For the glory of the cold jade." They said in unison, then closed their eyes and swallowed the black pill in one gulp.

The black-clothed assassin smirked and said, "We have already investigated, in the Winter Festival, you have at most 7 bronze knights and one silver knight here. What's the use of that? ”

"Do you know how many Mithril-level thorn ...... we've had this time?"

The words came to an abrupt end.

I saw that the two knights guarding the entrance of the village began to grow in size little by little.

2 meters.

3 meters.

Finally, it ends at 4.5 meters.

Attacker: "......"

Don't talk about martial arts and become giants, even if you grow a layer of stone shells on your body, this is a bit excessive, right?!

Think that's the end of it?

Of course not!

The two huge stone men seemed to have drunk fake wine, and first roared in the sky.

The black-clad attackers who rushed to the front were dumbfounded.

Those who are close and slow to react will have their eardrums shattered directly, and two lines of blood flowed out of their ears and eyes.

After roaring, the stone man immediately ran, and was a scud against the nearest deaf man in black.

The leader of the black-clad Night Raiders saw one of their berserkers, like the Fernan's Knight's Ball, being taken to the sky by this kick.

Leader: "............"

The berserker flew 10 meters into the sky, then fell freely, landed on his head with a 'pop', stuck upside down in the snow, and then slowly collapsed like soft noodles.

The charging attackers shuddered in unison.

But the inhumane stone man rushed forward to carry the feet of this unlucky bastard, and directly came to a 'weeping willow'.

He carried one of the Berserker's feet, a 'Meteor Hammer', and smashed it into the black-clad attacker on the left, and another meteor hammer at the black-clad attacker on the right.

Leader: ".................."

Behind him, a follower asked tremblingly, "Toutoutoutou, is this still fighting?" ”

The leader asked with a wooden face: "Those nobles just gave us a few gold coins?" Is it enough to buy coffins for all of us? ”

The attendant breathed a sigh of relief, "That, that, that's great!" Let's run! ”

As the two spoke, another 'petrified giant' had reached out to a thief who had turned around.

"Ahh!!hh Stay back! Don't you come!!! Monster! Help me!!!! ”

"I'm not fighting! We're just, just taking money!! ”

"Ahhh!!h

With a miserable howl, the man had been pinched in the palm of the hand by the Sadie Stone Giant,

I heard the crunching sound of the bones of the 'clatter' and 'clatter', and the thief was 'involuntarily' gathered into a ball.

The knights who arrived saw this inhumane scene.

Knights: "Gan! These two stone men are invaders?! ”

"It's not! Why does this thing look a little familiar?? …… Wait a minute! Isn't this Sadie? ”

"Damn, they took that pill that said, 'If you don't have to, don't take it unless you have to!'"

"Damn! What the hell is going on? ”

"Crazy? Dare to attack the Duke of Leng Jade, aren't you afraid of your Highness's retaliation? ”

"Webb, get on your horse and report to Constantinople!"

"Brothers! For the banner of cold jade! Block the dignity of the knight! Be sure to leave behind all the rats who dare to invade the dukedom! ”

……

In the dukedom, Li Aili sat at the banquet table.

On her right is a handsome duke with a cold look in a red coat, and on her left is a gushing elven royal brother.

"So, I've refined a new elixir, which can make you enter a state of madness after eating it."

"Uh-huh." Li Ellie scooped the honey pumpkin pie in front of her with a spoon.

"However, I'm hitting a bottleneck right now, and obviously, the gray rat can't offer me more...... What is that word called, what is it really ......?"

"Experimental data." Li Ali reminded.

"Oh oh oh, yes, that's the word, so, I'd like to find a group of volunteers and let them try it for me, and then I can improve the elixir."

Ellie Lee: "Wait...... You just said, what are the sequelae of the rats who have tried the medicine? ”

The elven king brother said with a sad face: "After the effect of the medicine has passed, they are still always looking for cats to fight. ”

Ellie Lee: "............" No wonder, the cat in the castle has been very alopecia lately......

Thank you for the reward ~ (づ ̄ 3 ̄)づ
