Chapter 39 Wan Dong

8days ago Xuanhuan Novels 9
Roland stood on the city wall, looking north.For the past month, he has repeated the cycle of three points and one line between the castle, mining area, and city walls, checking every possible forgotten detail.

The militia's stabbing movements became more and more skillful. With Carter's repeated practice, they were able to stabilize the barrel of the gun until the hunter in charge of observation shouted the attack slogan.

Standing behind them was the Hunter Team, and all hunters who stayed in the border town and were good at using bows and crossbows were incorporated into this team.

These experienced hunters are the main force in killing evil beasts, shooting towards the corners of the walls at a twelve-foot-high city wall, with almost no chance of missing.

Finally, there is a final strike team composed of Iron Axe, Carter and two other elite hunters.

The four front flintlock guns created by the Blacksmith shop and assembled by Anna have been delivered for use. They will only be killed by the final team if they encounter a tricky monster or mixed evil beast that cannot penetrate the outer skin without even crossbows.

Their location is very free, wandering around this distance of about two hundred meters long, and appearing wherever there is a need.

As for explosives, they are stored in a tightly guarded warehouse under the city wall.

When you need to rescue the ground, you will transport it to the city wall alone. After all, if something happens to this thing, the damage it causes may be greater than that of the evil beast. The evil beast's teeth cannot bite the cement stone, but the explosives can send the entire section of the city wall to the sky.

So far, Roland has organized two practical drills, including the use of explosive packs.

Thanks to these two drills, the embarrassment of the militia being frightened by the loud roar of explosives during formal defensive warfare and throwing away weapons.

Another advantage is that when everyone discovered that the prince still had such an amazing weapon in his hand, the morale of the team suddenly rose.

Your Highness, Barov tightened his collar, and most of the income from ore trading had been spent. If the Demon Moon was as long as the astrologer said, I probably wouldn't have ended in winter.

Then fill in all the things in my vault. Roland said without hesitation, and don’t stop the transaction with Liuye Town.The steam first machine has been transported to the mine cave, and the collapsed gravel cleaning work has been basically completed. We can still get a little output throughout the winter.Especially for gemstones, no need to emphasize the price. If you can sell them as soon as possible, you can sell them as soon as possible.It is always right to store more grain and jerky.

Barov nodded, I will do it, Your Highness.only……

Seeing the assistant minister looking reluctant to speak, Roland certainly understood what he wanted to say. Don't worry, I arranged a small boat. If the situation really collapsed, I would leave the town.

Then I'll feel relieved.Barov breathed a sigh of relief.

Roland smiled at him, "Go and do your business, I'll take a look."

After Barov left, the prince slowly climbed up to the tower.

This is the highest point in the center of the city wall, from which you can overlook the vast jungle and rolling mountains ahead.

The cold wind whistled in his face, but he didn't care at all.

Only on this empty platform can he calm down when facing a war.

You were lying to him, someone around you said, "You have no intention of leaving at all."

Life is already so difficult, it is better not to expose some things.

I don’t understand what you are talking nonsense. If the prince’s identity is difficult, then what are we?The nightingale appears in shape. Even if you can't become a king, as long as you live for the five years of fighting for the king's order, you will be the lord of the same place.It's better to be with Anna more than worrying about this, but I'm afraid... she doesn't have much time left.

Roland was silent for a moment, I didn't think she could not live in the Demon Moon.

Why?

She said she would not lose to the evil demon body-eating body, and he paused, and I believed her.

You will actually believe a witch, the Nightingale shook her head, we are the ones cursed by the devil.

Is that true?I believe in you, too.

……

……

Brian was wearing casual clothes and stood in front of the greyhound's tombstone.

He gently stroked the brand new stone tablet, and a line of words was engraved on the pure white monument: It is unknown but has always been in the hearts of the people.A hero who sacrificed for the border town.

Greyhound.

I realized my dream and when the moon of the Demon is over, His Highness the Fourth Prince will hold a licensing ceremony for me.

But I don't want to sit in the hospital bed and wait.

My wounds have healed, and the walls are where I should stay.

The Demon Moon is coming soon, and the evil beasts may be terrible, but they will hit the defense line that everyone has worked together to build, and they can't take a step forward.

I will wield your sword to guard this town.

All this is not finished.

The person who framed you is still alive... but he will not live forever. This is His Highness’s promise to me.

I will bring good news next time I see you.

Brian bent down and placed a bouquet of bouquets in front of the tombstone.

So goodbye, my friend.

……

Sister Anna, aren’t you afraid?Nanava asked with her calf raised on the bed.

What are you afraid of?

The evil demon body-eating Ah.The Nightingale said it was winter, I became a witch in autumn, this year is the first time...

The first time Ah, Anna thought about it, it would hurt, and sometimes you even want to die immediately.

Ah!Nanava exclaimed, and immediately covered her mouth.

But you will survive, just like me.

I don't know... Nanava whispered, I'm not as strong as you.

I wasn't very strong, Anna closed her eyes and saw the scene of the first meeting with Roland.

In the dark and cold dungeon, he draped his clothes on himself and whispered to hire him until now, she still felt incredible. You will also encounter some things that make you want to live, even if you are struggling to live.

for example……?

For example, the meat steak covered in sauce, she sighed, how do I know what you want, huh?

Looking at Nanava who was staring at her, Anna wiped her face with her hands. Is there anything dirty on my face?

No... The latter shook his head and said, I was just a little surprised. You never said so much to me before... Sister Anna, you just closed your eyes and thought, so beautiful.

Anna rolled her eyes, jumped out of bed, and walked to the window.

Nanava followed, what are you looking at, are you in the hide-and-see forest?

The forest is in the west, and Anna said angrily, only Chishui River can be seen here.

Sister Anna, look!The girl pointed to the sky.

Anna was stunned for a moment, then opened the window, and a cold wind mixed with snowflakes poured into the room.

She stretched out her hand and pinched the crystal clear snowflake, and a coolness came from her fingers.

It's snowing.

……

……

After a long silence, Nightingale said: You didn't lie.

Of course, Roland smiled, I rarely say panic.

Nightingale didn't say anything anymore, she turned her head, with an unidentified look in her eyes.

Suddenly, she felt a chill around her neck and couldn't help but shrink her neck.

I looked up and found that at some point, snowflakes had already floated above the city wall.

There seemed to be countless white elves in the gray sky. They danced in the north wind and flew everywhere with the slogans of militia training.

...The Demon Moon has begun.
