Chapter 19: Trouble Comes to the Door

[The enemy is very strong, and the companion can also be very strong, so it is necessary to know the companion around you, but it may take a long process to get to know each other. ——The 21st day of the 6-toothed dolphin in the 146th year of the Guangming 4th period]

The cold winter of another world is a veritable cold winter, completely unreasonable cold, the exhaled heat freezes directly on your lips, forming layers of ice slag, and the freshly boiled water turns into cold water as soon as it leaves the flame; Even heavy snow can fall from day to night, from night to day, and from the beginning of the moon to the end of the moon; The cold wind also does not talk about martial virtues, it blows from morning to night, from night to morning, and whenever there is a gap, it will bring ice and snow to take advantage of the void.

All the tools in the manor need to be heated before they can be used, otherwise they will break directly, even those made of iron, if you hold the metal with your bare hands, it will be firmly frozen on it, and you will lose a layer of skin.

Such a terrible cold also indicates that the creatures of the continent are facing an unprecedented cold wave, and this cold wave will also give birth to some terrible things, such as plundering and killing!

"Master, Zhuzhu has a message that a pair of unknown visitors are quickly sliding towards us!" The big cat came to report in the yard, and I was laying the floor of the square with Rebecca.

"How many people know?" I stopped what I was doing, and my face was solemn.

He scolded in his heart: Well, if you don't come sooner or later, you just come when our city wall is about to be completed.

"Zhuzhu reported that there are hundreds of people, all of them are well-equipped, and I guess they may be professional slave hunters!"

"Inform Zaffia and Zhuzhu that you must stop them!"

In such a cold winter, only angels and icerodent spiders can move freely in the wild, and I can only count on them now.

It is a pity that our current weapons and equipment are too backward to face these well-equipped professionals, otherwise we will only suffer losses and be beaten.

"My lord, let me go!" Rebecca asked for battle with a serious face.

"No, you can't go! These people are all desperate people, and you have too little combat experience, so it's easy to be a target when you go. "I decisively rejected Rebecca's request.

"You can command them here with peace of mind, and I will handle the rest of the things, rest assured, I won't let you be harmed!"

After that, I also rushed to the city wall, which was still under construction.

As soon as I arrived at the scene, Otam nervously said, "My lord, why did you come down too?" ”

"I have to come down, I can't let you face the danger alone, you command everyone to continue the construction, with Zofia and Zhuzhu, we won't be in danger for the time being, take advantage of this time to hurry up and rush to work, do as much as you can, and we will have one more guarantee without adding a city stone."

"Good! Everyone speed up, believe in the arrangement of adults, don't think too much, work quickly! Otam shouted to the worried crowd.

I stood on the unfinished wall, taking out my silver crossbow and ready to go.

"Master, I'll help you!" Griffons flew out of the horde and came to me.

"Okay, you carry me to the air to be on guard, don't be too high to see the whole city wall, let's be on guard together, in case any fish escapes through the net!"

The appearance of the griffon feather gave me more confidence, I had been dropping it before, and it was also a fierce general, and it was also a powerful creature that was not afraid of cold waves.

We were so engrossed in guarding the entire defensive wall under construction, and sure enough, as I had feared, there were not only fish that slipped through the net, but also enemies who were in the dark.

In addition to the hundred-dozen slave hunters who were still out of nowhere, there was another team of thirty men dressed as hunters sliding from the south, and seventeen disheveled, sneaky bands sliding from the east.

Without saying a word, I shot an arrow at each and shouted, "Stop! One step further, it's shot at you! ”

Both teams were stopped by me, and at the same time I looked up at me in the air, only to realize that there was still me in the air.

"Rush!"

Both sides ignored my presence, shouted at the same time, and both sped up and rushed towards the wall.

In any other season, the steep slope alone would have made them give up the sprint, but now that winter is cold and the snow has almost filled the slope, these people can ignore the height difference and rush at us without fear.

If the enemy does not retreat, I will advance!

I fired a silver crossbow and said to the griffin, "You are in charge of the east, I am in charge of the south, and I am in charge of the death!" ”

There were only ten crossbow arrows in one magazine, and they were quickly lost, so I quickly replaced them with new ones and continued to shoot continuously, but unfortunately my speed was still slow; I killed only eleven of the thirty enemies to the south, and the other 19 slipped through the net and rushed straight to the construction site of the city wall.

As soon as I was in a hurry, I reflexively launched the arcane flame storm, and in an instant, a fire snake spewed out from my palm and touched the snow on the ground, instantly rolling up a burst of fire wind, and then quickly expanded into a ball of flames with a diameter of 100 meters, and then exploded, and the terrifying high temperature instantly vaporized everything within a kilometer, and even affected the city wall that was still under construction, and even the construction personnel were injured.

Seeing that my own people were hurt, I felt remorseful in my heart, and quickly jumped off the back of the griffin, and threw a saint-level healing magic recovery technique in the air below.

"My lord, we're fine, you don't have to worry about us." Before I could hit the ground, I heard Otam yelling at me from below.

"Master, we're all fine, just minor injuries, don't worry." The affected crowd shouted when they saw me jump.

When they saw my heart jumping, they also released the feather drop technique on me before I landed, relieving the impact of my landing.

"I'm sorry guys, I was careless! Are you sure you're okay? "Even though I heard their shouts, I still didn't feel comfortable reconfirming with them.

"It's all okay master, we can deal with these people, you don't have to do it!"

"We're fine, please don't worry, master."

"Rest assured master, we're fine."

"Master, we can handle them."

Everyone said.

Even the big cat swaggered up to me and said:

"Rest assured, master! There are big cats and brothers, how many of these people are numerous, all of them are rations, and the construction will not be delayed at all, you can play boldly and confidently! ”

I kicked the big cat in the ass and laughed and scolded, "You're good, okay!" ”

Then he congratulated everyone and said, "Everyone is fine, I'll go on patrol again with Ling!" ”

Before leaving, it occurred to me that I could use magic to clear the snow near the city walls, so I said to Otham, "If you have time, Otham, use fire magic to melt the snow on the periphery of the city walls, so that the enemy will not get too close to the city walls." ”

"No way!" The crowd was united and resolute in their opposition.

"My lord, the city wall has not yet been finalized, in such a cold climate, the melting snow water will penetrate into the city wall into ice, and it will only crack the city wall, absolutely not!" Otam hastened to explain.

"Oh oh, oh, I ignored it, you guys are doing it, just when I just farted, don't worry!" I also hurriedly expressed my stance that I would not dare to command blindly.

Then he rode away on the griffon, leaving the crowd laughing on the unfinished walls.

The snow was so heavy that I couldn't see the shadows of the trees in the air, only a large snow cover and piles of sharp snowdrifts, and I didn't find anything after circling for a few weeks, thinking about the Angel and Zhuzhu and their enemies.

"Are Zofia and Zhuzhu back?" As soon as I landed, I asked about Rebecca.

Rebecca also nervously replied: "Not yet!" ”

"Ling, let's go take a look!"

The wind and snow were too strong, and the tracks on the ground had long been obscured by the heavy snow, and we flew in the direction where Zofia and the others had disappeared, hovering in the air, hoping to see some clues.

A figure rose into the air, followed by a large open net, and the figure wanted to speed up the lift-off, and was covered by another large net.

"Master, it's Zofia!" The griffon was anxious to swoop over, but I stopped her: "Don't rush, fly over!" ”

Looking down from the air, Zofia and the hundred angels were being held by large nets, unable to fly, and were struggling in the snow at the moment, and they were also tied up in chains and unable to move.

Seeing this, I really can't figure it out: Are these groups led by Zofia all vases? And the ice-rodent giant spider is also a fancy shelf? Was it worthy of their racial identity to be captured so easily?

Both seemingly powerful races made me feel too speechless at the moment.

More than a dozen black shadows suddenly shot out from below, and suddenly opened up into a large barbed wire fence in the air, pressing towards me and the griffon.

"Ling, dive down!"

I took advantage of the situation and told the griffon feather to swoop down, avoiding the large barbed wire fence that rushed in front of me, and the griffon feather just dived and catapulted more than a dozen large iron nets.

I didn't want to just keep dodging, so I jumped directly from the back of the griffin: "Ling, you find a chance to save Zhuzhu and them, and they will be handed over to me by Zofia." ”

Those people hide well in the snow, and if you don't look carefully or don't have the ability to discern, you can't find their existence at all, and their strategy is also very sophisticated, a typical trapping strategy, using the prey's eagerness to save their companions, the strategy of luring and supporting the enemy.

Seeing this cliché scheme, I chose to do it: if you want me to fall into the trap, then fulfill your wish and see who is the last hunter.

I jumped out and grabbed a net that whizzed above Griffon's head, and then threw the net out of my hand at the dozen or so black shadows that had not yet separated, enveloping most of them.

The unenveloped black shadow continued unabated, and opened up into a large net towards me, and I adjusted my body slightly in the air, and dodged the whistling iron net; I repeated my old trick to grab the edges of the two iron nets that passed by me, left and right, and gave them a big turn in the air, sending them back to the enemy hiding in the snow.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Two iron nets each happily capture one of their own masters.

"Stretch out, stretch out!"

"Fucking launch Lao Tzu, don't let him come down, hurry!"

This group of rats, who can only hide and make shady tricks, finally lose their breath and reveal their location.

The iron fence successfully completed its mission, and I landed on the ground without any problems.

With one enemy and one hundred, I am not absolutely sure in my current situation, if it is a normal situation, I will choose to deal with them to the end, just like the Wurm tribe; But this kind of blizzard weather, coupled with the snow hindering the movement, I didn't dare to hold it up, so I saw the position before I landed, landed directly next to Zofia, held a big knife to take advantage of the situation to split the big net holding Zofia, and then turned around to split the iron net on the side.

"My lord! The enemy is cunning—" Zofia broke free of the iron net and complained, but was sternly interrupted by me: "Save the enemy!" ”

With a move of Zofia's right hand, the fallen saber was recalled, it was the first time I had seen an angel's weapon, it was a milky white greatsword, it had the feel of being made of ceramic, but it was extremely sharp, and I stared at the approaching enemies, and out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of them slicing through the iron net with their broadswords very easily.

This scene made me even more puzzled how they could be caught so easily.

Suppressing the many doubts in my heart, I reluctantly turned my back to the angels who planned to gather together to fight the enemy, and ordered:

"Spread them all out, don't pile together, go help save the spider!"

"My lord, I'm with you!" Zofia said, leaning her back against me.

"Okay! Everyone else scattered guerrillas, there is no need to be morally righteous with such an insidious enemy, kill by unscrupulous means, and don't let anyone go! "I gave the order to die.

"Yes!" The angels finally understood this, and after the rescue, they all dispersed and quickly disappeared into the snow.

"Don't let them run! I want that man's death—" A burly man with a scarred face pointed at me with a large knife more than two meters long and half a meter wide.

I had already pulled the trigger with the silver crossbow at the stall where he appeared, so before he could finish his sentence, the crossbow arrow had already pierced his head and pierced into the chest of another enemy, and the enemy also fired a hundred arrows at us at the same time, and then the dragon skin frame on my body finally played its role for the first time, and the angel finally played its normal level, blocking all the arrows in one fell swoop.

The battle began in earnest after my bolts, and the enemy hiding in the snow no longer hiding, but lunged at us from all directions.

The hand-to-hand scene was once bloody and chaotic, and from time to time there were traces of magic.

The white snow was stained red with blood, the ground was trampled into mud, swords, guns and halberds were all over the ground, and the corpses of the enemy fell one after another, and they had begun to throw off their armor and want to surrender.

The snow was still howling, the cold wind was still cold, the blood on the ground had frozen, the corpses had been cold, the snowflakes quickly covered the mess of the battlefield, standing in the middle of more than a hundred corpses, everything felt a little unreal.

Yes, I killed someone!

but also by killing people in the form of massacres; But I still didn't feel anything in my heart, just like hunting monsters and killing dragons before, there was no psychological barrier, but I was still a little uneasy.

"My lord, these people are professional slave hunters raised by the great nobles, as well as robbers who hunt in winter." Zofia reported with some gasp.

"None of this matters, as long as we can survive this cold winter safely, nothing else has anything to do with us!" I said with a blank face.

This time, the enemy for a few days gave me a big hint, I can't be so passively beaten, otherwise there may be an accident at any time, and the angel's combat effectiveness doesn't seem to be very high, giving me the feeling of a recruit's egg, more directly it's a group of flowers in a greenhouse, and it's very lacking in combat awareness and cooperation.

And it doesn't matter, I don't expect anything from this group of vases, and I'm already satisfied with being able to put a hand.

Back in the large courtyard that was still being converted into a square, Rebecca, who was leading the children of all ethnic groups to work, was stopped by my hand just as she wanted to catch up.

I looked gloomily at the returning Ice Rodent Spiders and Angels, rearranging them to deal with the enemies that came down.

"Zofia, I am very dissatisfied with the battle of your angels today, and from today you are responsible for training them well; Zhuzhu, you take your family to tighten the thin wire and your spider silk in the forest around us, and use it to kill the fast-gliding enemies, can you see what I mean? ”

"Assign a task to the angels, too, that you should set traps all over the forest around us, and remember the location, so that you don't get into a trap for yourselves; Don't tell me that you can't, if you can't, you will go to someone to learn until you learn! I said sternly to the hundred angels with a serious face.

"Ling, from now on you are responsible for keeping watch in the air, don't let go of any clues, everything that will appear around us at this time is not normal, just kill! It's the same with you, you know? I patted the griffon's neck and gave the order to die again.

After this invasion, the manor's project has not changed in any way, but after the magic energy system has become more and more perfect, everyone has been less and less affected by the winter, so the progress has not decreased but increased; Thanks to Rebecca's care, she suggested that each person wear a regular magic crystal connected to the magic energy system, so that they would not be frozen during the construction site, and the range of movement of the people would be increased, and the consumption of food would be much less.

After that, the estate was attacked on three more small scales, but all of them were easily resolved.
