Release that Witch Chapter 39: Turn the winter

Roland stands on the city wall and looks at north. This month, he has repeated the three-point, one-line loop of the castle, mining site, and city walls, checking every detail that may be forgotten.

The stabbing action of the militia team is becoming more and more proficient. After repeated training by Carter, they have been able to stabilize gun. They did not send out long guns until the hunter in charge of the observation screamed the attack slogan.

Behind them is the hunter team. Any hunters who stay in the Border Town and are good at using bows and crossbows are included in this team. These experienced hunters were the main force in killing Evil Beast's. They shot at the corner of the wall on the twelve-foot-high wall, and there was almost no possibility of being missed.

Finally, there is a make-up team consisting of Iron Axe, Carter and two other elite hunters. The four front-mounted spearguns made by the smithy and the Anna welded assembly have been delivered for use. Only when they encounter a thorny monster or Evil Beast Hybrid(s) that can not penetrate the skin with the crossbow, they will be killed by the make-up team. Their position was very free, and they traveled a distance of about two hundred meters and appeared wherever they needed it.

As for dynamite, it is stored in a closely guarded warehouse under the city wall. When it is time to save the field, transport it to the city wall -- alone. After all, this thing is an accident. The damage to itself may be greater than Evil Beast. Evil Beast's teeth can not bite the cement stone, but the explosive can send the entire wall to the sky.

So far, Roland has organized two practical exercises, including the use of dynamite. Thanks to these two drills, the embarrassment of throwing weapon out of the militias during the formal defensive warfare with the explosive roar of explosives was avoided. Another benefit is that when everyone found out that the prince still has such a powerful weapon, the team's morale suddenly rose.

"His Royal Highness," Barov tightened the collar, "The income from the ore trade has spent most of it. If Months of Demons is really as long as astrologer said, I don't think it will end the winter."

"Fill in my vault," Roland said without hesitation. "Also don't stop the transaction with Willow Town. The first steam machine has been transported to the mine, and the cleanup of the collapsed rubble is also done. Basically completed, we can still get a little output throughout the winter. Especially for raw gems, we don't need to emphasize the price, we can quickly sell it as soon as takes action. It is always right to store more grain and jerky. "

Barov nodded, "I'll do it, Your Highness. It's just ..."

Seeing Assistant Minister's eloquence, of course, Roland understands what he wants to say, "Rest assured, I have arranged a boat. If the situation collapses across the board, I will leave small town." >

"Then I'll rest assured," Barov breathed a sigh of relief.

Roland smiled at him, "Go and do your work, I'll see it alone."

When Barov leaves, the prince slowly climbs to the watchtower. This is the highest point in the middle of the city wall, from which you can overlook the vast jungle and rolling hills ahead. The cold wind roared towards him, but he didn't care. Only on this empty platform can he calm down when facing the war.

"You're lying to him," someone said, "you didn't plan to leave at all."

"Life is already so difficult, there are some things you should not take apart."

"I don't understand what you are talking about. If the identity of the prince is difficult, then what are we?" Nightingale Appeared in shape, "Even if not King Just live struggle for the throne In these five years, you are also the leader of one party. Rather than worrying about this, you are more with us Anna Better, I'm afraid ... she doesn't have much time. "

Roland was silent for a moment, "I don't think she can survive Months of Demons."

"Why?"

"She said she would not lose to demonic bite," he paused, "I believe in her."

"You actually believe a witch," Nightingale shook his head, "we are cursed by Devil."

"Really? I believe you too."

"..."

Brian is wearing casual clothes, standing in front of Greyhound's tombstone.

He stroked the brand-new stone monument lightly, and the plain white tablet engraved with a line: "Nameless but enduring. Hero sacrificed for Border Town."

"Greyhound."

"I realized my dream. When the Months of Demons is over, the four His Highness the Prince will hold a booklet ceremony for me."

"But I don't want to wait on the bed."

"My wound has healed, and the wall is where I should be."

"Months of Demons is coming, Evil Beast may be scary, but they will hit the line of defense that everyone has worked together to build and cannot move forward."

"I will join your share to guard the small town and wield a sword."

"It doesn't end there."

"The one who framed you is still alive ... but he won't live forever, this is His Highness' promise to me."

"I will bring good news next time I meet again."

Brian bends down and places a bouquet of flowers in front of the tombstone.

"Goodbye, my friend."

"Sister Anna, aren't you afraid?" Nana asked lying on the bed with her legs lowered.

"What are you afraid of?"

"demonic bite. Nightingale said it was winter. I only became witch in autumn. This is the first time this year ..."

"First time," Anna thought about it, "it will hurt, sometimes you even want to die immediately."

"Ah! "Nana exclaimed, and immediately covered his mouth.

"But you will survive, just like me."

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

"I'm not that strong," Anna closed her eyes, and the first time she met with Roland came to her mind. In that dark and cold dungeon, he put his clothes on himself and said softly to hire himself --. Until now, she still feels incredible, "You will also encounter something that makes you want to live, even if you are struggling Keep going. "

"Like ...?"

"Such a steak with sauce," she sighed. "How do I know what -- Yeah you want?"

Looking at Nana, Anna wiped his face with his hands, "Is there anything dirty on my face?"

"No ..." The latter shook his head. "I was just a bit surprised. You never said so much to me before ... Anna sister, you just closed your eyes and thought, it's beautiful." /

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

Nana followed, "What are you looking at, Hidden Forest?"

"The forest is to the west," Anna said, "I can only see Scarlet Water River here."

"Sister Anna, look!" The girl pointed at the sky.

Anna startled, then opened the window, a cold wind mixed with a little snowflakes poured into the room.

She stretched takes action, grasped 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 laughed, "I rarely said panic."

Nightingale didn't speak any more. She tilted her head and had an unclear look in her eyes.

Suddenly, she felt a cold around her neck and could not help shrinking her neck. raised head only found out that I do n’t know when the snow was falling on the wall. There are countless white elves in the grey sky, dancing in the north wind, flying around with the slogan of the militia team training.

... Months of Demons started.
