Chapter 287

"Oh? You're quite courageous, but it's not like bragging."

Field was amused.

"That's right, I'll be an adult in a year or so, and I want to be a female knight." Alexia proudly puffed out her chest, and she didn't look like she was about to become an adult. She put her hands on her hips, "So I have to practice now."

"You are energetic when you are young."

Field suddenly realized that he had just become an adult.

Perhaps because of teaching them, there is always an illusion that he is an old man.

"Put away your nail clippers, this thing can only tickle the rotten corpse."

Handing over a crossbow, Field gave it to Alexia: "Use this, it's powerful."

"My lord, I want to chop people, not shoot arrows." The girl pushed with both hands and refused bluntly.

Field looked up and down in surprise, and gestured his height and said: "But it's a bit difficult for you with your physique."

"I have teammates to help, right, Wormwood?" Turning her head to look at her best friend, Alexia's sky-blue eyes were full of hope. "Dear Wormwood, help hold the corpse."

"Ha man." Wormwood silently took two steps back, and awkwardly quoted from the classics: "It's unwise to use the crossbow. I won't help people who have lost their minds."

"Then... Lumi." Alexia looked at the cat girl Lumi.

"Meow meow meow, I don't understand." Lumi looked at her feet with an expression that she didn't know what she was talking about, "Wow, this earth is really too big."

"A bunch of traitors." Alexia covered her face helplessly.

Bestie friendship is really plastic, Field was amused by them.

"Forget it, I'll help you."

Field blew a whistle lightly, and the two remaining corpses in the distance immediately turned their heads and rushed over with bared teeth.

With a sharp movement of his sword, Field chopped off the head of a corpse and kicked the abdomen of another corpse.

The power of a second-level fighting knight can kick a corpse into paralysis even without fighting.

"Crack!"

The corpse half-knelt on the ground with a sound of bones cracking.

Stepping forward, Field chopped off the palm of the corpse and smashed his teeth.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you next."

"Ah? This is not challenging." Alexia complained bitterly.

"Try it first, then talk big."

Field didn't want any accidents.

Handing the long sword to Alexia, she immediately made a sword flower in a chic manner: "I have been training hard, a little corpse is no problem."

The courses in the territory not only include literacy, but also learning combat skills from the army.

After saying that, she held the sword tightly with both hands, and her throat, which kept swallowing, showed that she was not calm at the moment.

"Go to hell!"

Alexia held the sword horizontally, like holding a lance, and rushed forward fiercely with her own strength.

She had the blood of the Griffin Empire in her bones, and she was brave and fierce. She felt an inexplicable excitement in her heart.

However, the corpse was not a scarecrow in the training ground. Alexia's sword stabbed away and hit the corpse's chest firmly.

Looking up, the little girl saw the corpse's pale eyes, the terrifying face with rotten meat, and the dirty blood flowing from the empty mouth.

This scene almost scared Alexia to pee, and the cold rushed to her head.

"Bang!"

The corpse waved its arms wildly and hit Alexia on the head with an elbow.

"It hurts so much." The little girl was so shocked that her tears came out. She covered the swelling on her head with her left hand and cried out in surprise.

Fortunately, Field cut off his palm, otherwise the blow would be a laceration caused by the claws. If no one treated him, he would die.

"Shh~"

The corpse paddled like a dog, and its elbow pressed on Alexia's white long skirt. The girl was in a hurry to pull away, and the skirt was torn apart in an instant, revealing her snow-white calves.

"???"

Field was stunned.

Why is this development not right? It always feels like the defeat animation is about to load.

Fortunately, Alexia successfully pulled away, panting and raising her long sword, slashing at the corpse that was rushing towards her.

The girl and the corpse fought back and forth.

During this period, Field and Tisifa wanted to take action several times, but finally held back.

"Puff!"

The girl, who was gradually getting familiar with the corpse's routine, dodged the attack and stabbed the corpse's back of the head with the long sword in her hand, and then pierced through its eye socket.

The corpse twitched twice, and disgusting sticky blood gushed out of the wound, and then it stopped moving.

"Huff~"

The girl, like a mud monkey, breathed like a bellows, and after a long time, she happily made a victory gesture: "I did it."

"Well done, I believe you will be the pride of the Night Territory." FieldHe did not hesitate to praise her, "Now, clean yourself up and don't eat the rotten secretions."

"Yes!"

After Alexia changed her clothes and washed her face and hands, they set off again.

It took more than a whole time to reach the only iron mine cave in the Night Territory.

This place was where Rosaria hid the key. Because it was a distance away from the manor, Field had no power to occupy it before, leaving an important resource point abandoned until now.

"We need iron more and more now, whether it is for military equipment or production."

Field's head went bald when he thought of the sky-high equipment outside.

The fighting spirit slowly spread out, and Field could feel that there was high-quality iron ore all around. As long as he started collecting, it would greatly accelerate the industrialization process of the Night Territory.

"This place is too far from the territory. It will take at least two months to extend the territory to here."

As soon as the voice fell, the conversation startled the rotten corpses in the mine, and they roared and rushed over.

"Rest in peace!"

With both wings slashing out, Tisifa's sharp feathers shot out at high speed and pierced into the corpse that rushed over.

The holy light power contained in the feathers exploded, directly igniting the corpse into a white fireball.

"Well done." Field gave a thumbs up to Tisifa, and then jumped onto the high slope on the side. "We don't have so much time to follow the routine. We can directly build a dual-purpose outpost for mining and reconnaissance here. According to the experience of the salt mine, the mined ore will be piled here, and then the team will be sent to pick it up regularly."

"That will be very dangerous. When the people in the salt mine encounter a tide of corpses, they can hide in the mountains or caves, but the terrain here is flat, and the mine needs people to manage it." Tisifa was very worried.

She flew back to Field: "As long as the corpses find your mining team, they will be eaten immediately. But if you have to station a large number of troops like the salt mine, what about Starry Night City and the big manor?"

The stall was getting bigger and bigger, and the defensive force began to be stretched.

"That's right. We can only circle the resource points and transport slaves here to build a wooden fortress. Once it's built, we'll send the Chosen Ones to station there."
