Chapter 79: Snow is coming
Three days later, the weather gradually changed. The sky was covered with black and low clouds, and even a little snow fell.
Seeing this, Xia Duo decisively decided to return to town. It was about to snow. He didn't know if the orcs would continue to attack in snowy days, but going out on a snowy day was obviously not a good choice.
In addition, they have been outside for three days, and the supplies are also a little insufficient. It is time to return at this time.
Xia Duo is an activist, and when he had an idea, he immediately notified Gibb and asked him to prepare to pack his things. Later, Xia Duo found Sami.
"It's snowing soon, I am going back to town, how about you?"
"This--" Sammy hesitated, "What if the orcs take the opportunity to get out of the forest?"
The tragedy of the village passing by three days ago still lingered in Sami's heart, making it difficult for him to decide for a while. And Chateau had thought that Sami should be very persuasive, but he didn't expect to get stuck here.
Does he still want to fight in the snow?
"The orcs also want to eat, and they are also afraid of the cold. The snow is probably not small. If they don't run for their lives, will they come to die?" Xia Duo persuaded.
The fact that the orc’s lair was taken away is not a secret thing in the territory. Even if you didn’t deliberately ask about it, you will hear other players say it in the past few days.
Like Xia Duo, I heard Gibb say it.
A trace of struggle appeared on Sami's face. This is when Devine heard the two talking and came over, "Sami, I agree to go back now, even if there are orcs coming, are we going to fight in the snow?"
is also an apprentice to a mage. Devine is more sensible than Sami. Sensibility is a good thing, but it is not necessarily a good thing to let sensibility overwhelm rationality, especially for mage.
"Ok!"
Although he was still a little unhappy, Sammy finally agreed to Chateau's proposal. As for Dean, he is only looking forward to Chateau. Basically, he does what Chateau says, and he is highly obedient.
Just like that, the teams on both sides packed up their things and returned before the snow became too big.
When returned, Xia Duo deliberately detoured a little more and left a warning to some villages where there were still people-pay attention to the direction of the forest, and hide as soon as the orcs were found.
With this move, Xia Duo immediately gained the respect of everyone including Sami. The master said that rationality is true, but if it is too rational, it will lose human touch and the road will become narrower and narrower.
Appropriately showing warmth is not another rational choice!
Xia Duo learned not only some common sense in the field of magic, the customs of Netheril, and the wisdom of the wizard from the "Biography of the Archmage Dasriel".
This wisdom is not only embodied in the insight and analysis of objective things, but also in the insight into human feelings and hearts.
Of course, there is no such thing as absolute reason in the mage, but that kind of situation is very rare, and this kind of person is almost invisible by everyone.
As far as Chateau is concerned, he never wants to have anything to do with this kind of person. It may be useful to him if you are alive this second, and the two are smiling. The next second he thinks that your death is useful to him, and he may have to immediately The war started.
In essence, this is an extreme egoist. Maybe many mages are like this, but they will not show it.
……
After a few detours, Xia Duo and others returned to Savile Town at about noon. In addition to their original more than forty people, they also had more leaders from outside the town.
For various reasons, they voluntarily chose to join the territory army, and Xia Duo also brought them and their families back along the way.
It’s just that when everyone returned to the barracks and prepared to end the mission and spend the winter well, they learned a bad news. All the teams that returned in the past two days were told—
The heavy snow will not fall for at least a week. This is the news from the Mage Tower.
In other words, Xia Duo and the others have to continue for at least another week, so the originally planned holiday has become a temporary repair, and they will continue to work tomorrow.
……
Old Neil Hotel, guest room on the second floor. Necromancer Kenny is holding a heavy book and reading it carefully. Old Neil respectfully reports to Necromancer Kenny what he has heard.
"My lord, tomorrow morning, the Eagles Chamber of Commerce will have a convoy leaving Savile and heading north; in the afternoon, the Nugent Chamber of Commerce will also have a convoy leaving Savile and heading to Conifer City. Both teams are recruiting wizards."
Old Neil cast his expectant eyes on Mage Kenny. He now hopes that the foreign mage can leave as soon as possible, so that he can leave the relationship as soon as possible.
"I changed my mind." Mage Kenny looked away from the book and looked at Old Neil. He knew at a glance what the other party thought, "I am going to receive it in Saville until next year."
"what?!"
Old Neil was taken aback. He didn't know what went wrong and caused the foreign mage to temporarily change his mind. Old Neil's lips moved and he was about to say something.
"What? Do you have an opinion?"
met those eyes that suddenly became indifferent~www.readwn.com~ When old Neilton swallowed what he wanted to say, "Don't dare, don't dare."
"Go out, I'm going to read a book!"
"Yes Yes!"
Old Neil almost ran out on the ground. The foreign wizard had to stay in the Savile leader. This made Old Neil even more nervous, for fear that the lord’s soldiers would come and knock on the door in the next second.
The only thing to be thankful for now is that Old Neil still doesn't know what the Master Kenny has done in Saville, otherwise, it is estimated that he will go to the temple to report immediately.
As long as he did this, Master Kenny could immediately take his life, even his soul.
Old Neil, who didn't know his life was hanging by a thread, returned to the first floor. The war ahead ended and the recruited adventurers were also released.
It’s just the number of people. One out of ten would be good, and this one must be scarred.
But even so, it made the old Neil’s hotel a little more angry. A group of young men who didn't know where they came from were surrounded by a middle-aged man on crutches, listening to him talk about his "great achievements" some time ago.
"You don't know, at that time the orc's battle axe had slashed on top of my head, but whenever I hesitate, my whole person will be split in half!"
"What happened then?"
"Later, of course, I would fight back. You didn't know that the blood from the orc's neck poured on me. It was so fishy and smelly!" The middle-aged man with crutches said this, and made a nose slap.
It was as if the blood of the orc was still on him.
The onlookers looked at him with an admiring look, and he seemed to enjoy it.
Just then, there was a harsh chuckle outside the door.
