In the past few days, the second treasure at home has a cold and a fever, and he is very busy, so he didn't see everyone's encouragement for the first time. This year's cold wave is strong enough, everyone should pay attention to keep warm, don't catch a cold! ]
As it turned out, Unter was still a big kid. Unable to bear Fei Lin's begging several times, he gasped and scratched it three or two times before throwing away his helmet and armor. He completely forgot the position he said just now, and after a while, he and Fei Lin had already built a crooked snowman. The two used the dead branches they picked up as their hands, and Fei Lin found two red fruits from somewhere and put them on the snowman's head, which turned into eyes.
I don't know who started it, but after the two of them built the snowman, they played snowballs. It was very lively.
Allen sat by the carriage door, his legs swaying left and right, so leisurely. He bit a yellow grass root, looked at the two people who were fighting and said: "I remember when I was a child, there was a heavy snowfall on a winter night. I was very excited. I finally looked forward to the dawn and ran away without thinking about eating. I went outside to try to build a snowman like this, but I didn’t make the snowman, and my mother beat me up instead.”
"Oh?" Belmode chuckled and said, "Ms. Lanny was right. The radiation on the surface was quite serious ten years ago. Especially the radiation snow, which is a deadly substance. If it were me, I would beat you up too." .”
"I was young at the time, so I didn't know so much, so I thought the snow was so beautiful. Why did so much snow fall in the sky, and where did they come from. I was angry and annoyed that the snowman was not made that day. I This person is sometimes very stubborn, and he doesn't cry when his mother beats him, but just holds his breath. Later, my mother had no choice but to say that she would build a snowman with me next year, and I cried."
Allen looked up at the white sky: "In the second year, before we even made a snowman, the predators came. Then, everything changed."
Belmode looked at him and slowly lowered his gaze.
"Let's not talk about this." Allen looked at himself, the first follower: "Have you read the news from Dark Blade?"
"I know everything I need to know." Belmode nodded.
Allen laughed and said, "I know as much as you do."
Belmode spread his hands, as if I didn't say anything. Allen restrained his smile, and said seriously: "Rekord is recruiting."
This is a well-known fact, but the news from Dark Blade is not the 3,000 soldiers that Zaofeng has spread outside. According to Dark Blade's news, Shancheng currently has 5,000 troops, or even more. For an earl, building an army of 5,000 men has exceeded his authority and ability. In terms of the jazz's private army, the empire has strict restrictions to prevent the lord from supporting himself.
Five thousand private troops, that is already the establishment of the Marquis' army. Furthermore, although the mountain city is not poor, it is far from being utterly rich. Even though Reckerd could support this 5,000-man army in a short period of time, it would definitely consume all the wealth of the mountain city within half a year.
But now, Reckerd is obviously able to hold on. Not only did they buy food in large quantities, but also the weapon workshops in the mountain city rushed to work day and night to make equipment for the army. The Dark Blade arranged by Edward in the mountain city found out a shocking piece of news. Through some secret means, Reckert purchased a batch of war horses, enough to equip a cavalry army of 2,000 men.
Such an army, if high-end combat power is not included, then the mountain city army is enough to sweep several territories including Allen.
"The old earl is very ambitious." Belmode had a calm smile on his face: "He can bear it, he just endured it for half a year. And I heard that not long ago, that son of Hoy went to the mountain city to torment him. It’s also fortunate that Reckerd still smiled and sent a sum of late compensation to Ark Port.”
"Can you be less ambitious? You've seen it too. The Dark Blade news said that the troops in the barracks are not limited to human beings. Rekord has specially designated an independent camp and prohibits outsiders from appearing within 100 meters of the camp. The violators were immediately killed on the spot, and it took Dark Blade a lot of work to find out that there were aliens in that independent camp." Allen squinted his eyes and said, "Of course they are aliens from Paradise Star."
"The Principality of Shadows?" Belmode frowned: "Does Reckerd still want to turn against the Empire? No matter how ambitious he is, cooperating with Shadow Park is tantamount to turning against the Empire. He is a small Southern Earl. Can you afford the thunderous wrath of the emperor?"
"Who knows. Maybe he's bold. Maybe he didn't do it voluntarily, or maybe it's a combination of both?" Allen laughed: "But if there are traces of alien activities, it's hard to guarantee that there will be no masters from the Shadow Principality in the mountain city Sit down."
"Then it won't be so easy to kill Reckerd." Belmode tried to ask, "Why don't you call Hubble and Lola?"
"Time does not allow it, and there is no need to say it. This time we are doing the killer business, not confronting the enemy head-on. It is easier for the two of us to move. If there are too many people, the target will be too obvious." Allen patted the side The Red King said: "I don't have anything to worry about when dealing with Reckerd. The Empire is not a vegetarian. Even if the Shadow Principality cooperates with Reckerd, it would not dare to blatantly transfer over a strong player with too high a level. Otherwise, the Empire would have already I found out, so I bet that the strong aliens in the mountain city will not exceed level 25. The earl's combat power is not the earl of strength. To be honest, he is really not my opponent. "
"What's more, I don't think Reckerd is that powerful. He dared to force a twenty-five-level alien strongman into his own territory. That is no longer cooperation, but lures into the house."
"Earl Reckerd has three sons. The ending must be two lives and one death, which two live and which one dies?" Allen seemed to be asking himself.
Suddenly there was a whisper.
The conversation between the two was interrupted, and they raised their heads at the same time. It turned out that Feline threw a snowball at Unter, who shrank his neck, and the snowball hit Daran in the face as he walked towards them. Snow powder puffed down, and Dalang remained expressionless. He seemed to bump into Angt by accident, and Angt immediately fell to the ground in the snow. Fortunately, the snow is soft, and there is no problem falling. Ke Ante looked annoyed, propped up his body and glanced at Allen first. The latter had a smile on his face and did not express his opinion. Angte frowned and walked away without saying a word.
There was a hint of a smile in Da Lang's eyes.
"He did it on purpose." Belmode said softly, slightly raising his right hand.
Allen stretched out a finger and tapped the back of Belmode's hand without a trace, and a black flame in the latter's palm quietly dissipated.
At this time, Dalang made a gesture to help Angte, and the boy withdrew his hands with a muffled grunt. Dalang was not angry, and smiled and said: "I didn't pay attention just now. But I was a little surprised to knock you down with a light touch. Little guy, you should practice sword or exercise when you have time. with girls
What kind of man is Zixiu? "
Although he was talking to Unter, he looked at Allen.
Allen clapped his hands and said, "Mr. Dalan is right, Ante, did you hear that? It would be good to play less with Miss Feline in the future and practice swords more."
Dalang scolded "the rice bucket" softly in a voice he could hear, but he didn't know who he was referring to. With an impeccable smile, he waved to Felin and said, "Uncle Wach is looking for you."
Feline vomited and said "I know". Then he waved to Unter, and took another sneak peek at the flame-like red hair, but unfortunately the man looked back. The girl immediately jumped up like a cat, then lowered her head and ran away, her heart beating uncontrollably.
Dalang squinted his eyes, seeing everything in his eyes, but didn't say anything. Just nodded to Allen, and chased Feline away.
Angte came back angrily, kicked Allen and said, "Why don't you help me?"
"Why should I help you?" Allen gave him a blank look: "People make trouble for you, if you have the ability, you can get it back yourself."
Angte snorted: "He is using me to taunt you, you can't hear it, can you?"
Allen laughed: "Even you little guy can hear it, unless I'm deaf, otherwise I wouldn't be able to hear his little thoughts."
"Then you can still laugh!"
"Why can't you laugh?" Alan poked out his ears, looked at the snowy scenery in the distance and said, "An ant bites you, do you have to crush it to death? If so, how small is your size? Like This kind of little thing, if you want to trample one of them to death with one foot, why bother to be angry about one of them. Even if that ant thinks he is unique. But it is still an ant.”
Angte seemed to understand but half understood.
At the other end of the camp, Dalang met Hunter, and there were four or five young mercenaries accompanying Hunter. As if they knew what Dalang was going to do, Hunter deliberately bumped into Dalang and said, "How, those two young masters didn't turn against you?"
Dalang smiled and shook his head, Hunter and a few mercenaries were his retreat. If the two nobles are offended, if their guards want to do something, let Hunter and the others smooth things over. Moreover, Feline was right next to her. If something really happened, Wach would have to intervene if he wanted to, because he cared about his daughter. And the result is that there will be nothing wrong with Dalang, at most Chidori Mercenary Corps or Woqi will suffer.
But the result was beyond his expectation.
The red-haired nobleman neither became angry, nor did he act bravely. But that kind of self-seeking approach seems to be timid and shrinking no matter how you look at it.
"It's just two idiots, don't worry about it." Dalan said casually, and glanced in the direction of Alan's carriage. Dalang smiled coldly, and greeted Hunter and the others to leave.
After a short rest, the caravan continued its journey. This walk took an entire afternoon, and the caravan did not find a small forest to rest until the sun was setting. Several open spaces were cleared in the forest for the caravan and mercenary group to rest. Night fell quickly, and looking through the campfire, the world was dark. It's so dark that I haven't even seen a single star. This kind of weather is always depressing.
Dalan assigned the night watchman according to Wach's order. He was responsible for the late night watch, so he went back to the tent to rest first. Unexpectedly, as soon as the person lay down, he felt the ground tremble.
Regular vibrations!
Horseshoes on the ground!
