Chapter 18: Ambush in the Snow (Part 3)
Yesterday there was a heavy snowfall.
Flipping through the dates, winter has arrived for a month.
Gongsun Murong and Narasa have been busy since they entered school.
They learn words.
Listen to the teachers talk about history and geography.
Go to the magician's class to borrow notes, and go to the place where the battle spirit is taught to observe.
Go to the magic supply store to increase your knowledge, and buy a few small things to study.
After dinner, rest for half an hour.
The two of them then brought the food that had been made to a certain teacher to give gifts.
It's good to ask questions alone.
Most of the gifts given now are the claws of the monsters in the Soul Lake.
It was cut into slices and baked by Gongsun Murong as a snack.
The body parts of the monster had already been divided into countless parts by the butler, and the body parts were taken out for the other nobles who lived or stayed in the royal city to taste.
So in the past month, Gongsun Murong and Nalasha's days have been very peaceful.
No one came to trouble them.
I don't see a student provoking you.
Nalasha likes her current life, she always has a sweet smile on her face, and she feels kind to everyone she sees.
Instead, Princess Lucia was bored.
She returned to the palace when it snowed yesterday and came to find her early in the morning.
Marquis Hilary Francis, who had always been at odds with her grandfather, joined forces with some other nobles to give bread and porridge in various squares in the royal city.
Help for those who come to the royal city and can't eat.
"The two sons of the family are preaching everywhere, hypocritical, contemptible, and there are merchants in the square who advertise their goods giving away food. ”
Lucia said huffingly.
He pouted again: "If they really want to do good deeds, they should go outside the city, and there are people outside the city who are in various troubles and cannot enter the city and need help." ”
Nalasha nodded, looked at the still sunny sky, and said, "The snow is still falling, and the civilians outside the city are cold, and they will lack food. ”
She glanced at Lucia.
The two men said at the same time, "Let's go outside the city." ”
Lucia mobilized her staff to buy the fat meat that the rich and noble did not like to eat at a low price.
Gongsun Murong set up a few large pots and stewed them with seasonings.
Then I found a large iron box cart that carried water, and poured a pot of meat into it.
plus a large number of hot cakes that Gongsun Murong took the time to bake.
The group drove before noon and headed towards the west gate where they had entered the city.
Snow, there is no intention of stopping.
The snow in the uncleared places along the way has reached the knees of adults.
On the main street, the hard-working city sanitation staff is watching, and every time snow falls a centimeter high, it is swept to keep the main road clear.
By the time the procession reached the West City Gate, an hour and a half had passed, and many people in the city had already had lunch.
Outside the city, there were quite a few people waiting in line.
Some are caravans, and after coming to Wangcheng, the buyers cannot be contacted for a while, and the goods cannot be stacked in the city.
Some are people visiting relatives, but they can't get their identity documents and entrance fees to the city.
There are also some refugees who have fled the famine, which is difficult to determine for a while, and needs to be reviewed by people from relevant departments.
Even thieves, beggars, brokers, and laborers who are looking for business at the door all year round.
Among these people, there are people who are really desperate, and they will be very grateful if they give them a little help.
There are also those who do not need mercy and are willing to exchange their hard work for living expenses.
There is also no shortage of bad people with dark psychology who make people kill them a hundred times and not understand their hatred.
Narasha and Lucia are confused, who should the stewed flatbread go to?
"Good Samaritan, please help us, we will praise you, you who are kind deserve God's protection, who will help us. ”
An old, hoarse voice came.
Narasha and Lucia looked over together.
I saw an old man in a single shirt, with a wrinkled face, and trembling when he walked.
He walked slowly, begging for help from everyone on the side of the road or on the road.
Lucia, believing that she had found someone in need, ran over with Nalasha and asked, "Are there many people who are cold and hungry in the snow?"
"Yes, kind young lady, will you give us a little help? The old man's cloudy eyes shone with a hint of hope.
"That's right. Nalasha then admitted, "We brought a lot of food, and you let them come and eat." ”
"Oh, thank you so much, thank you so much, but, you know, we have come from a far away place, and we have no strength left, and they are waiting there. The old man was grateful, and then looked embarrassed.
"Okay, okay, where? Let's go over and believe that everything will be fine. Lucia said excitedly.
She also ordered the old man to be helped to sit on the wheel, and the procession followed the direction of the old man's guidance.
After about forty minutes of walking, a group of people could be seen gathering in the snow on the side of the road.
"Is that them?" asked Lucia.
The old man nodded excitedly: "Yes, it's them, we finally waited for help, praise the gods, and you, kind young lady." ”
After the old man finished speaking, he asked the people to continue walking that way.
But Nalasha suddenly spoke up and asked, "Why are so many people lying in the snow?" Wow, there are also on this side of the road, aren't they cold?"
"Prepare for battle. Moses reacted the fastest, and while wielding his weapons, he released his battle spirit and adjusted his position.
Lucia's bodyguards were a second slower, and they watched around in panic with their weapons in hand.
Then I remembered the old man beside the princess.
It's just that when they looked at the old man, the battle aura on the old man's body flickered for a moment and there was no movement, and his head was pierced by a sword.
Gongsun Murong's hand was on the hilt of the sword, his eyes were calm and his expression was indifferent.
Countless figures stood in the snow on both sides of the road, each with a crossbow in their hands.
"Miss is in the middle, and the reverse double line is swimming. Moses shouted again, and the adventurers from the desert instantly formed two circles, the outer circle moving clockwise, and the inner circle moving counterclockwise, protecting Nalassa and Lucia in the middle.
At this moment, the combat quality was revealed, and the adventurers knew how to interfere with the view of the ranged attacker.
The visual impact is constantly transposed.
Lucia's face turned pale.
Narasha's long hair fluttered, and all kinds of light flickered on her own guard.
Immediately after that, with the team as the center, a whirlwind blew and snow howled.
Then the sound of the crossbow strings sounded, but the bolts could no longer fall on the people, and they were swept into them by a thick whirlwind, and chased after them with the snow.
"Lucia, don't be stunned, let's fight together. Nalasha made more than thirty ice shields as she reminded the frightened Lucia.
"Oh, oh. Lucia agreed, she didn't know how to be stunned for a moment, if she had been left in the desert, she would have died a long time ago.
When fighting adventurers in the desert, people will not say that they want to fight first, or they must show a fierce expression, but they will smile with you one second ago, and then attack in an instant.
Nalasha and Gongsun Murong were not comfortable at first, but under the threat of death, they had to learn how to fight.
Moses and they were still going round and round and talking to each other as they went round and round.
"Six knives on the left side of the road. ”
"On the left side of the road, four crossbows are wound. ”
"Lu left two-handed sword, fourth class quality, three. ”
"Lu Zuo, one-handed sword, fourth class, nine. ”
"Road right, black hammer, two, quality unknown. ”
"Three pairs of daggers on the right side of the road, pay attention to getting close. ”
"Right ......"
"Watch your head, throw ...... high"
"Change the bow. ”
"I'll come. ”
"I cooperate. ”
"Resolved. ”
"Sure. ”
An unknown object that had just been thrown in from a high altitude was deflected by an arrow from an adventurer and entered the whirlpool.
Nalasha immediately raised the height of the vortex.
Lucia's bodyguards could only stand by the young lady's side, while listening to the adventurer's words, pondering how to fight back for a while.
In normal times, they don't really look down on Narasha's guards, thinking that they don't have a high fighting class.
But now they realized that none of the adventurers who could crawl out of the pile of dead people were given for nothing.
"In ...... Again, under the guidance of the god of magic, the water spirits who are everywhere in the heavens and the earth, please listen to my call - ice picks shoot indiscriminately. ”
Lucia calmed down a little, and hurriedly cooperated with the attack, she was about to make dozens of icicles outside the vortex to attack the enemy.
As a result, when dozens of ice picks were just formed, hundreds of ice blades like dagger blades appeared, flying in all directions with the ice picks, and they could also adjust their direction.
This is another water system evolution technique...... Ice blades fly.
When these attacks appeared, countless ice picks and ice blades were generated, and at the same time, countless people with flashes of battle aura rushed in the direction of the city.
"Reinforcements are coming, and Miss Nalasha is holding on. The leader of the guards shouted.
Lucia's personal bodyguards knew who had sent out the attack, which was the team protecting the Nine Princesses, and they usually followed from a distance.
Generally enough to protect the princess.
But no one expected the attack to come so quickly, and it was less than fifteen seconds from the beginning of the attack to now.
He was afraid that Nalasha would not have enough mental power, this was an instantaneous large-scale spell, and the requirements for the sorcerer were very high.
Nalasha controlled the ice blade to attack, and comforted the leader of the guards, "Don't worry, it's okay. ”
The situation of the battle on the field has changed.
The ambushers changed from slaughtering to slaughtering, first by a group of ice blades and icicles, then by sorcerers and warriors who rushed at them.
But even so, they didn't flinch, and took out their own melee weapons to fight.
Seeing that they were about to be killed, Nalasha looked up at the sky and said, "A spaceship is coming." ”
As her voice fell, a small black dot appeared in the sky in the distance, and then gradually grew larger.
"Oh my God, how did the Mitchell Empire's ship come here?" shouted the leader of the guard in horror.
"Narasha Run, it's a combat ship with large assault weapons on it. Lucia shouted.
The guards were desperate, how could they run, could they still run past the spaceship?
Especially now that there are wheat fields all around, and there are spell cannons on the battle spaceship, and the cannonballs fired explode one by one.
They regretted it, not that they were going to die, but that the genius Nine Princesses of the Principality would fall, and that there was an even more genius Nalasha.
The loss of the principality is too great, the ship is worth money, but there is money to build, and geniuses cannot be bought with money.
Desperation manifested itself on almost everyone's face.
In the future, as long as there is no accident, there will be three changes every day, and they will be more than 3,000 words per shift, and today's second update is actually 4,000 words.
I don't have to collect and recommend every chapter, I mention it again every few days, that's all I can do, Xie Lu Xie has always supported my brothers and sisters.
