Chapter 11 Warcraft and Knights
Being praised by the lord's son, Kuding's eyes lit up, and he said proudly: "I did it when I was idle." Noticing that Tucker's eyes were wandering on the woodwork, he hurriedly asked: "My lord, do you like it?" Which one is my gift to you."
"Haha, then I won't be polite." Tucker grinned, reached out and grabbed a statue of a small eagle with wings in his hand, looked at it from all angles with satisfaction, and put down a copper coin on the spot.
"My lord, you can't help it. I gave you the things, and you don't need money." Kuding picked up the copper coins anxiously, but was stared at by Tucker, and his movements stopped.
Not to mention, the momentum is quite scary.
Contrary to the excitement, Leiter himself did not indulge too much in the party.
He left halfway through the party and came to the grass pasture to feel the weather today.
"Obviously the simulator mentioned that there will be extremely cold weather at night, but not only is it not cold during the day, on the contrary it is mild. Even now, there is no obvious chill.
Who would have thought that the temperature would drop suddenly at night, bringing the extremely cold wind? "Leite thought to himself.
Two hours later, Leiter keenly felt that the temperature had changed significantly, and it came strangely, suddenly dropping suddenly without warning.
It has reached zero degrees, and it is still slowly falling.
"Is it coming?" Leiter realized something was wrong, and hurriedly said to Sveta beside him: "Go to the central square and inform the civilians in the town that the temperature may drop sharply tonight, so let them shut down Protect the doors and windows, and burn more firewood in the house."
"By the way, call Tucker and Riley over."
Thales doesn't like lively scenes very much, Rhett knew this, and didn't force him to come to the party tonight.
What's more, he has to go out to search tonight, and it is even more impossible to bring the weak Thales.
"Understood, master, I'll go right away."
Sveta was a little surprised in his heart, but he still carried it out.
Three hours later.
At the gate of the town, Leiter wandered leisurely outside the town with his two sons, Ruilai and Tucker.
He found a reason, saying that it was to prevent some monsters who like to move at night or in extremely cold weather from making trouble.
Generally, these monsters are relatively strong, and one of them, the Dark Frostwolf, is a typical representative.
He heard Rilei tell him that five years ago, a small group of dark frost wolves came from the Warcraft Mountains.
Although the average strength is only at the second level, in just a few days, three baronial territories were destroyed.
The Dark Frostwolf is really hard to defend against a sneak attack, especially at night, in a dark environment, its mobility is three points stronger than that during the day.
Fearless of the cold, sensitive in speed, and mastering ice magic, it became the nightmare of many baron nobles at that time.
Later, several viscounts joined forces to wipe out this group of dark frost wolves.
Because of this background, no one doubted Leiter's motives.
Taker's physical fitness is beyond ordinary people, and the cold and wind will not affect him.
But as time passed, he still said in doubt: "The temperature is still dropping, and it's getting colder. Tonight's weather is a bit weird."
Rilei and Leiter both propped up a thin layer of magic shields to block the body surface. They don't need a strong defense force, which is enough to resist the cold.
"So we have to be more vigilant against accidents!" Leiter said.
Looking at the empty plain in the distance, Leiter said: "Let's go, let's patrol around the town for a while, and gradually spread around the circle of the town."
"No need, as long as you and Ruilai are by my side, I will be the first to respond to emergencies." But Leiter smiled and shook his head.
Rilei didn't say much, and followed what his father said, but there was a strange look in his eyes.
He always felt that there was something abnormal about his actions tonight, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
The snow outside Young Eagle Town still exists, and at first glance, it looks more like a vast white blanket.
With Leiter leading the team, the three began to patrol around the direction of Young Eagle Town.
And the temperature is getting colder.
The circle they circled became bigger and bigger, and gradually came to a position that was one kilometer away from Young Eagle Town.
"Father, there seems to be a series of footprints there." Rylai reminded.
He pointed in a direction, and Leiter looked along, and there were indeed footprints of monsters, and the traces were very obvious.
Stepping forward to take a look, Leiter's eyes flashed with surprise.
"These footprints are the same size, and the route is very single, without any mess. There should be only one monster.
The shape of the footprints is roughly oval, with seven thick toes, and it is very likely to be an ice spike bear. This kind of Warcraft likes cold weather very much, and it likes to be active at this time. After Leiter observed for a while, he had a judgment in his heart.
"Let's go, let's go over and have a look. From the footprints of the Ice Bear, we can see that it is not big, and it must not be an adult. The limit of its strength is a second-order monster. It is nothing to be afraid of." Lei Te waved his hand and accelerated forward. Hurry up.
Thinking of the possibility of a fight, Tucker's blood was about to boil. At the same time, he did not forget to praise: "Father is still considerate. This place is very close to the territory. If you don't come and see it, maybe there will be danger at night."
"Did they come from the Warcraft Mountains again?" Rilai's expression froze, and he murmured, "It seems that the frequency of Warcraft appears a little higher these days."
He thought of the wind wolf brought by his lord father, and the ice-spined bear just discovered tonight, two of which were found in just a few days.
Usually, he and Tucker would only find a Warcraft wandering nearby once a quarter.
He wrote it down, but he didn't worry too much, it might just be accidental.
Followed his father and hurried forward. Not long after, a new discovery was made.
Different from the calm in the middle of the night, a burst of fierce fighting came from the front.
The chaotic voices are mixed with the roars of monsters and humans.
Leite's face was filled with joy. Tonight's active attack and rescue will definitely be easier to win people's hearts and cultivate feelings than to passively seek refuge.
After all, he has just returned from the front line, and the territory is in short supply of manpower, especially advanced knights, which are also a considerable part of the territory's armed forces, and can play an important role in all aspects.
Such as territory patrol, territory security, territory defense, caravan escort, etc.
In the past, he didn't sit in the territory, and it was normal for others to look down on the fledgling Young Eagle Town. His sons had to do it themselves when encountering big or small problems.
But now with his return, it will definitely not be the same as before.
Generally speaking, in addition to cultivating elite talents in their own families, nobles will attract loyal and reliable followers with certain talents.
These followers are also an important force for the nobles, and they are also what Leiter urgently needs now.
Take the territories relatively close to Young Eagle Town. Any baron has several or even a dozen knights with foreign surnames under him, not just apprentice knights.
The apprentice knights in Young Eagle Town are selected from the small town and cultivated slowly. They are regarded as their own.
"If the two first-order knights can join, it must be a good start." Leiter smiled.
