hell under construction

Damon was hugged by the frost giant at the peak, but the humans and demons in Windsmoke Fortress were in a dilemma.

Snowing.

Before Damon left, he had warned Gareth and Achilles to be extra careful when it snowed.

Because snowing means that winter is coming, those races without food are likely to launch an attack at this time.

When the first snowflakes began to fall, the people in Windsmoke Fortress fell into a state of anxiety. Garris immediately made a decision and arranged for the soldiers to go out to harvest the last batch of grain.

After the snow falls, the road outside Windsmoke Fortress will be very difficult to travel. It will take a long time to go back and forth, and it will be difficult for the crops covered by snow to grow. Therefore, only when the grain is harvested at this time can the grain be harvested. Avoid being wasted and rotten on the farm.

Originally, Garris only sent human soldiers there, and the demons were already troublesome for them to help with training, and the demons obeyed Daemon, and Garris was not qualified to drive them.

But Achilles took the initiative to join the food delivery team. He was worried about the safety of these humans. After all, it was snowing. Who knows if the bulls and snake people who are at the end of their strength will secretly attack.

On the way there, the snow fell more and more. At first it was just a shallow layer, but by the time they finished harvesting the grain, a layer of snow nearly as thick as the feet had accumulated on the ground.

It was at this time that the barbarians launched their attack.

Recently, the Bull Clan has been paying attention to the situation of Windsmoke Fortress, and they noticed that humans will suddenly appear near the farm at a certain period of time.The barbarians thought that humans had taken away the last batch of food, but their frequent appearance near the farm obviously aroused their suspicion.

But the fact that they were of the same family whose life and death were unknown made them cautious and did not dare to attack without authorization.

Finally, when it started to snow, the barbarian tribe took advantage of the snowflakes all over the sky to attack those humans.

"Sure enough! Humans still have food!" A tall tauren in the barbarian tribe shook the two thick horns on his head and attacked them.

Seeing the food, all the barbarians turned red-eyed and rushed towards the humans.

After this period of training, the combat effectiveness of human fighters has improved a lot. If they were to fight one-on-one, they would be able to draw with the barbarians.

But unfortunately, the bull tribe sent nearly a hundred strong warriors, and there were only 20 humans including Achilles.

Originally, Achilles wanted to make a quick decision and quickly transport the food back, so the cake did not bring many people, but now it has become a weak point for them.

Under the suppression of the number of bulls, the 20-person team composed of humans and demons was soon surrounded by the bulls.

Soldiers and Achilles guard their provisions, fighting and retreating.

But two fists can't beat four hands, twenty of them can't beat these one hundred barbarians at all.

Seeing that the situation was urgent, Achilles immediately made a decision: "Throw away the food! Let's retreat!"

If they persisted, they would not only lose food, but also their lives.

Therefore, it is better to use grain as bait and let them open a way!

Achilles led the 20-member team, broke through a gap in the siege of the bull tribe, and finally returned to the Wind Mist Fortress with them safe and sound.

The hungry barbarians got a lot of food, so they didn't catch up again. Pushing the food cart that belonged to them, they disappeared in the wind and snow.

Although there was no loss of personnel, they still suffered a lot of injuries, and the wounded were taken in by Collier and Du Wen for treatment.

Garris waited in the Wind and Smoke Fortress, seeing the soldiers fleeing back in a panic, his expression was a little heavy.

Achilles' arm was cut off, but he was strong and strong, so he bandaged it casually, chewed a pill in his mouth, and came back.

Garris asked worriedly, "How many enemies are there?"

"One hundred. All bulls."

There was a gap in Achilles' clothes, and he was mending it with a needle and thread with some distress, answering Garris while mending.

He has only one piece of clothing. If it breaks, he has to go back and ask the demons in the weaving spinning to help him make a new one, but all those demons love the clothes they made. If the clothes are tattered, you must first scold yourself.

Achilles sewed carefully, but he did not forget to report the situation to Garris: "They seem to be just an advance team. Their goal is not to kill us, but our food. This attack did not It may be just to test our strength."

"Our number is too small. If we fight recklessly, we may be folded outside, so I had to throw the food down to lure the enemy, and then took the opportunity to withdraw into the Wind and Smoke Fortress. Fortunately, they didn't try it out. The soldiers have been trained We already have a force that can rival them, but the only pity is that those few carts of food fell into the hands of the bull tribe."

Achilles gritted his teeth fiercely. If he was given more manpower, he would surely be able to kill all those barbarians!

However, he can only evacuate strategically now. Thinking of this, Achilles turned his grief and indignation into motivation, and he stabbed fiercely with the needle and thread in his hand, as if the clothes in his hand were from the bull tribe. looking at those guys.

"You're right. The remaining food in Fengyan Fortress is enough for us to eat until the beginning of spring. It doesn't matter if the food is lost. At least you survived and came back." Garis comforted Achilles.

At this moment, the snow outside the window was getting bigger and bigger, almost to the point where it was difficult to see the surrounding scene.

Garris stood by the window and sighed: "This heavy snow came too suddenly..."

I don't know what happened to Damon and the others...

The next day, Gareth didn't sleep all night, and it was just dawn, looking at the thick snow outside the window, Garris frowned.

Suddenly, Garris felt a tremor in his surroundings, and the protective circle of holy patterns around Fengyan Fortress was shattered!

Garris, who was drowsy, woke up suddenly.

What woke him up was not the cold air outside, but the warning voice of the sentinel of Windsmoke Fortress: "Enemy attack——"

+ + + +

Damon exchanged his body for the chance of the Frost Giants to take them to the Polaris Deadwood.

The Frost Giant opened the way ahead, while Damon and Percy were right behind the Frost Giant, stepping on his footsteps and walking forward step by step.

"I knew that you could solve the problem with a hug, so why would it take so much effort?"

Passi shook the believer's chain on his arm dissatisfiedly as he walked.

But he didn't mean to ask Damon to untie the chains of believers.

The situation on the top of the peak is changing rapidly. If there is another snowstorm and he is blown to an unknown place, and the chains of believers are untied, Damon will have no way to find him.

"Hey! Damon, you have storage bags, right? Come and help me pack them!"

Damon was still immersed in the painful memory of being hugged by those frost giants madly, and he was in a state of ecstasy all the way.

Seeing this, Percy went up and slapped Daemon's waist: "Don't look like you've been tarnished, think about it, you saved [-] gold coins with your hug!"

"The fifty thousand gold coins are not all because of you!"

"Don't be angry! Although the picture of you being hugged by those frost giants is really funny, I definitely won't laugh at you because of it—hahahahaha." Percy couldn't help laughing.

Seeing Damon's sad face, Patsy felt that he could no longer frantically test Damon's anger.

Paxi finally held back his smile, and said seriously: "Okay, okay, I won't laugh at you anymore. If you can help me bring more plants back, I will charge you less gold coins. What do you think of this deal?"

"Really?" Damon wondered if Patsy had taken some wrong medicine.

Patsy swore to the sky: "I keep my word."

Dimon swept away the gloom: "Okay, what do you want?"

"This, this, this..."

Along the way, as long as Passy saw something novel, it would all go into Dimon's pocket without exception.

If Dimon knew that after transporting so many rare treasures back for Passy, ​​all he got was a "30% discount coupon for spending [-] yuan", he would definitely not be so active.

After all, he was still young, and he was not as good at calculating as Passy, ​​a money-losing guy.

Damon and Percy followed the frost giant all the way, and the surrounding temperature gradually increased.

Finally, they stopped on a piece of ground where the snow was about to melt. In front of them was a deep cave. There was no trace of snow at the entrance of the cave. Damon could even feel the heat coming from the cave.

It was the temperature there that melted all the surrounding snow.

Further forward was a piece of land wet by snow, and the frost giant stopped at the very edge of the snow.

"This is the cave where the roots of Polaris' dead wood grow." The frost giant said, just like their crystal clear appearance, their voices were also extremely ethereal.

Their bodies were transparent, and Damon didn't see the existence of vocal cords, so Damon didn't know where their voices came from.

I just felt that the sound fell into my ears lightly, soft and comfortable.

"Going any further, the temperature there is unbearable. I can't go any further, let's say goodbye."

The Frost Giant said slowly.

Although he said goodbye, Damon saw that the guy's feet didn't move a step, and the pair of blue eyes were staring at him.

Damon didn't move, Percy didn't speak, and the frost giant didn't leave.

"Okay, okay," finally Damon gave up struggling, and opened his hands towards the frost giant, "Come, come, to thank you for bringing us to find Polaris Deadwood, I will send you a hug."

"Ow—"

The frost giant couldn't wait to throw himself into Damon's arms.

Satisfied with a parting hug from Damon, the Frost Giant stayed in Damon's arms for a long time, and did not let go of Damon until his arms were melted and broken.

"I will always remember you, fiery friend."

The frost giant left such a reluctant farewell, then slowly picked up his arm, and walked back in the direction he came from.

Damon and Percy looked at each other until the figure of the frost giant disappeared in the snow.

"Laugh as much as you want, it's not good for your health if you hold it back." Damon looked at Percy who was holding back his laughter, and gave up on himself.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……"

With Percy's unscrupulous laughter, Damon and Percy walked into the cave.

"Is this the root system of Polaris Deadwood—"

When they saw the purple root system winding in the entire cave, Damon and Percy both let out exclamations of surprise.

"It's spectacular—"

It can be said that the entire cave is a space surrounded by the purple root system of the Polaris dead wood. The cave they are in is just a hollow under the root system. The root system is thick and spreads to the top of the cave, and then heads north.

It was thousands of times more spectacular than the bare Polaris dead tree branches that Passy saw in the snow that time.

Under the influence of the dead wood of Polaris, the magic power contained in the air made Damon and Patsy instantly feel clear sight and enhanced sense of direction.

"There are so many Polaris dead wood, even if I use them next year, I won't be able to use them up!"

Passi lamented the sweet troubles, opened his small package, took out the tweezers and small ax specially used for collecting Polaris dead wood, and seriously started to collect the Polaris dead wood he needed.

The directional elements on the dead wood of Polaris will enhance the sense of direction when it is located around, but if you directly touch the unprocessed directional elements on it, it will cause directional imbalance and hallucinations.Percy almost caught fire with this thing last time, but later he regained his sobriety by relying on his willpower.

This time, Paxi was very cautious when he used the Polaris dead wood again. The small ax was handled as delicately as a scalpel in his hand. He used the ax to separate the dead wood from the body, and then carefully removed it with tweezers. Put it in the box specially designed to store Polaris deadwood.

Step by step, Patsy's movements were quick and precise.

Percy, who was in a serious state, almost forgot that there was a Damon around him, and he only had the Polaris dead tree in front of him.

It took a lot of work for Passy to remove 49 and Polaris dead wood.

However, Parsi's fineness is also reflected in his finishing process. The 49 pieces of Polaris dead wood he took down were all processed by him once during the process of taking them, and they can be directly installed in the star image without any further processing. instrument above.

Seeing it, Damon was secretly satisfied. Sure enough, he was right, and the title of blacksmith master was not in vain.

"Done! Here!"

Brazil couldn't wait to put the completed planetarium into Dimon's hands, then took out their contract, and said happily: "Okay, from now on we will be able to calculate interest!"

... No wonder Patsy was so serious just now, it turned out he was for this.

Damon shrugged helplessly. It seemed that he didn't have an accurate understanding of Passy's love for money.

Taking the planetarium in Percy's hand, Damon sighed: "Sure enough...you are doing it for money. How can you be so serious? Don't worry, I won't give you any less gold coins." of."

Patsy clapped his hands and sent away the imprint left by the ax and tweezers on his hands, put back his small ax and tweezers, sat aside with the contract in his hand, suddenly looked at the words on it seriously, and fell into thought.

After finishing the part he should complete, Percy's head calmed down at this time. He looked at the words on the contract [Employer Damon commissioned Passy to make a planetarium, the total price is 30 gold coins, and the deposit is 30 gold coins. After the production of Passy is completed, if Damon is unable to pay the remaining gold coins, he will increase the interest by [-]% every month...] Passi looked at the [-] gold coins and the [-]% interest, and then thought about how Damon started from the beginning. The fact that he has only given himself [-] gold coins so far.

Paxi woke up suddenly, held the contract, and looked at Damon with scrutiny: "Actually, you don't have that many gold coins, do you?"

Damon paused, and quickly installed the planetarium in his hand: "How is it possible...Of course I have it!"

Patsy stared at Damon with piercing eyes.

Dimon was very guilty: "Ahem, really, don't worry, I will definitely give you all the money, including interest."

"..."

The two remained silent for a minute. Percy's green eyes were full of suspicion, and Daemon's eyes covered by the fence ran around, but he didn't dare to look at Percy.

In the end, Dimon was defeated silently.

"...Well, actually, I don't have that many gold coins right now."

The author has something to say: a small brain pumping theater hhh

Patsy (holds out hand): Give me money

Dimon (poorly picking out his pocket): no money

Passy (grinning): Then pay it back with your body!

Urga (appeared suddenly and stretched out a finger to press Percy's little head): Hehe, if you want to stage a robbery, please take a look at the physical conditions!little man!
