i have a shelter.

Page 156

Snow covered the collapsed ruins, leaving behind a story that no one knows the truth.

But presumably, many of the mahogany furniture in the village, as well as the gold coins, silverware and even large square bricks that Walp secretly found in the cellar, should all come from that castle.

Hunter cried a lot in front of the ruins, and Jack scolded the shameless villagers next to him.

Afterwards, George led them on the way forward. This time, they started heading directly towards the Black Pearl Manor.

As they moved forward and slowly approached the area where the manor was located, they saw something different.

There are many human footprints in the snow near the villages, and there are also some car marks and messy broken branches that should be fallen firewood.

But most of these villages and manors are surrounded by fences, fences and even high walls.

Here, they saw a lot of zombies moving in the snow, and corpses buried in the snow. They were different from those corpses seen near the glacier. Judging from the traces they checked, these people seemed to be newly dead. And quite a few people didn't have any bite marks from monsters like zombies.

It was the guns that killed them.

He suspected that these people should have originally lived in the territory, but for some unknown reason, they were expelled.

In the end, in the wind and snow, without a fixed place, he struggled to death in the cold winter.

And it wasn't a monster that chased them all along

Later, in an abandoned manor, George verified his guess. Here, he saw a group of refugees wandering here, huddled together to keep warm.

From the mouths of these people, he learned what kind of carnival those nobles living in the high inner walls were having.

Indeed, there are natural disasters here.But it has been reduced to a minimum.

However, the scarcity of food and the pressure brought about by the environment keep making things worse.

But many things are not for food, sometimes just for some weird reasons

"I really can't understand it, my lord." Jack couldn't understand what he saw on the road more and more. He rode his horse and marched on the edge of the lake, and said to the lord beside him, "I can see, my lord In order to allow more people to survive, she has done many things. But judging from the many things in the mouth of these refugees, she is like a conniving vassal, a devil who keeps her people like livestock, did you hear what that person said? Drinking the sweetest wine, she even ordered the fields to be burned and hang those who did not grow grapes"

George had heard those words, of course, and there were many stranger things than that.

The people living here already hated that woman to the bone.But it can only bury the complaint deeply in the heart, which means a little disrespect, or the words in the mouth are maliciously misinterpreted.The best outcome is expulsion from the shelter.

The lords would often take the knights to hunt, but in these games, monsters were not the only things they hunted.

What is even more frightening is that those black pearl knights will often participate in hunting teams

"I don't know, Jack." George looked at the frozen lakeside, "We have come into contact with many evil monsters, and we have also come into contact with many righteous people. But standing in the middle is the first time if someone tells me, This kind of people are struggling between rationality and madness, I believe there must be some truth in this.”

"Then shall we go?"

George didn't speak.

In the past few days, everything he has seen proves that there are hundreds of thousands of creatures in the west of this valley.

But after reading it, he didn't get the answer he wanted

Sometimes, things are not as simple as black and white, and the truth is not a multiple-choice question.

Often the more you know, the more confused you become.It will be farther and farther away from the real answer.

"Jack, I grew up in the valley. I have always heard how beautiful the black pearl red wine is. It is a wine that is not distilled, blended with brandy, and cannot be burned. It depends entirely on time and natural precipitation. , the purity is not high”

"It is said to be red wine, but when it is just poured into the wine glass, it has a golden color, just like the most luxurious golden liquid. At this time, its taste is like sweet oil and honey. But it is not greasy."

"But if you leave it for a while, sometimes it's just a few words, a blink of an eye, an instant. That golden color will slowly turn into bronze, and finally into a deep red at this time. The taste of the liquid has completely changed, and the entrance is like drinking fire. When the liquid burns through your throat and draws into the bottom of your heart, it can stir up many things buried in your heart."

"" Jack wanted to ask, boss, what do you mean, but finally closed his mouth.

In fact, George didn't know why he suddenly recalled this wine, and he said it as if he had drunk it. It was indeed like a memory.But maybe that's a memory that shouldn't exist

"Let's go, Jack. Let Garvey wait there for too long, I'm always a little worried. The pearls, gems, gold, silver, and antiques in the necropolis are all waiting for us."

Thinking of the money, George suddenly realized.Excitedly, he knocked on his horse's belly and left the ice lake.

0149 Attack the Great Cemetery!

If we say that in the western region of the Rodenk Kingdom, most of the high-quality wines, ores, and gems belong to the valley.Then most of the valley area belongs to the Black Pearl family.

Everyone knows that every year, a lot of precious goods flow out from the fingers of the Black Pearl family, causing nobles from all over the world to take out their money bags and collect them.But in fact, the best ones are often kept by the family.

Every generation of black pearl lords knows how to appreciate gems.After their death, wealth is passed on to future generations.But those favorite things around them will be taken into the underworld by them.

"The most famous one is the Tears of the Lake Demon." Anthony said happily on the horse. He has always only paid attention to burning money and doesn't like to study jewelry. Today, he seems to be particularly interested. A jewel, more precious than the one on King Rodunk's crown."

"Ahem." Baron Garvey coughed, his face seemed a little unnatural.He looked at his great lord and explained, "My lord, I have heard about this size, but there are indeed many stories about this gem, which makes it have a lot of legends. It is an unknown gem. It is said that After seeing it, many people will hear the cry of the lake demon. Of course, the story is the story, and the age is too long. But many black pearl lords who treasured it did not die well. Until it was finally brought into the the coffin."

"I guess that guy woke up and ran away," Jack couldn't help but interjected.

"I don't know how to fart." The scholar was never as polite to this honest man as he was to Martin's old bastard.He opened his mouth and cursed, "Your lord died and was buried above the cemetery. The large tomb below is just like the imperial palace. Don't say it, it's hard to get in."

George stared at the back of Anthony's head and stretched out his hand, but finally let it go

A few pathfinders came back from the mist and interrupted the chat of these idle guys.The sharp-eyed George saw the spider webs hanging on them from a long distance.

These servants are selected from the most outstanding soldiers.Their warhorses have only layers of leather, making them more suitable for scouting on the move.

As for the fearless knights, they are now wearing iron suits all over their bodies. The combined armor of the horses and men alone weighs more than 100 kilograms.In addition to the current knights, the short-throwing spears are designed for pursuit. Each person has three or four. The effect of the small hand crossbow and the holy fire is very good, and the weapons are all available, and the combined load is scary.Indeed, it is no longer suitable for the job of scouting around.

But these knights are now called real heavy cavalry.

After referring to the latest battlefield data, Anthony plans to change the iron coats of these horses after going back.Now the horses are all wearing long skirts and chain mail, which is not as flexible as expected.I don't know if it would be more suitable to use Zhajia with hard leather skirt armor.

After hearing the waiter's report, George nodded. As Garvey said, the area outside the necropolis has been cleaned up by this group of people in the past few days.In the entire silent woodland, apart from cobwebs and snowflakes, nothing else could be seen.

This is a little different from what he expected.Because those corpses after being exterminated, although the number is huge, they are not as organized as the Kuroshio gathered near the shelter. Such a group of monsters filled with various terrifying monsters does meet the standards of the Kuroshio.

And those monsters wandered around as if no one was in charge.It's just that there are too many defilers. Many of them were soldiers and knights who were responsible for guarding the necropolis before the fog came, and some were Black Pearl's retainers who had been sleeping for centuries or even thousands of years.

For these former retainers of the Black Pearl family, this team has long been prepared.In addition to the water of hope and the talisman, Anthony also specially prepared some potions that increase resistance to darkness, and things that numb the senses are indeed very effective when hearing those low voices.And when the white-robed knights sang prayers and launched a charge.It wasn't the soldiers who were afraid at all.

So those special medicines are useless at all.

The soldiers have progressed very smoothly in the past few days. It was originally in their plan to use the castle as the rear and slowly advance to understand the situation here.

Even a complete plan for retreat was prepared.

But in fact, these days, the team led by the barons is sweeping the woodland unscrupulously, especially when they find the occasional blasphemers here, and the armor they wear is inlaid with gems.After many gold coins and silver coins were pinned to the iron belt, these soldiers surrounded by the shining light completely eliminated their fear, and stared at the enemies as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

The spoils of war were temporarily hidden in the basement of the castle, and the barons said that after the war, they would give some of them to reward the soldiers.

The results they have made are indeed worthy of encouragement. Compared with the first battle of Bianhe, the soldiers have undergone earth-shaking changes in the subsequent battles.Even without George, many things can be done very well.
