Chapter thirty-ninth fortress gloomy clouds

Star fall, December 17, 831, evening.

In the Hesse Fortress in Moldova, heavy snow was flying.

The cold wave did not feel pity for the fortress that had just experienced a great battle. It was mixed with snow and cold winds, constantly blowing between the streets and towers, condensing layers of frost.

The gloomy clouds spread the heavy atmosphere. Now, there are no pedestrians walking on the road cast by greystone, only scattered armor and equipment destroyed by broken weapons are abandoned by the road. Their owners may have been killed or survived by luck, but no matter what, the scene is particularly desolate.

The silver-haired girl walked slowly on this deserted street, and her green pupils could not see any emotion.

Her steps were light and full of vitality as a girl. She was wearing a white women's double-breasted military uniform, matching trousers and silver long leather boots, and a pair of light leather gloves on her hands. She could occasionally see her fair and slender wrists between the gloves and cuffs... I have to say that such a vibrant beautiful girl is not suitable for appearing here.

But fireflies think it is very suitable.

Looking around the surrounding houses and towers, the girl of Shenji breathed the smell of war and felt the aftermath of the battle. She looked at the incomplete weapons on the ground, her eyes became softer, as if she could communicate with these dead objects. But she did not stop for this, but walked straight in one direction.

The silver leather boots and stone streets collided with ice and snow, making a gentle "thump" sound, which echoed in the streets where only the sound of wind and spread to the distance.

"It's so miserable..."

He sighed softly, and Ying sighed a little emotion: "It is also a siege of the Black Tide. Although the master's territory is tragic, it is not so miserable..."

After all, at the most critical moment, Joshua arrived at the scene and killed the golden monster. Otherwise, the Moldavian Fortress whose city wall was broken would definitely be a hundred times more tragic than the current Moldavian Fortress. It would be a blessing for a living person to survive.

But no matter what, the final result was that Joshua arrived, and his master cleaned up all the monsters and troubles, and the lord here could not do the same thing, so this resulted in such a consequence. This is the gap.

But it should be like this. How can my master be the same as an ordinary person?

Thinking of this, Firefly is now in the center of the fortress, and this place has finally gained some popularity. The patrol knights set out from here and headed to all parts of the city. They were wearing armor with dust and blood, with dusty faces on their faces, and were exhausted but forced to cheer up.

Next to the street they were patrolling, rows of unmanned houses were extremely quiet, with only a few small buildings with the light of flames flashing, and ash smoke from the burning of the walls floated out of the chimneys.

It seems like an empty city.

Faced with the black tide composed of 200,000 mad beasts, the Moldova Fortress was actually not considered a heavy casualty, at least not as big as expected, but there were so many injured and tired people, which led to many people still falling into dreamless sleep in their homes and military camps. Even such a team of tired soldiers had finally gathered together.

These soldiers tried their best to cheer up their spirits due to their sense of responsibility, honor and commands from the superiors, so as not to fall asleep while walking and lie in the snow and ice. They were holding the pyroxene lamp for lighting in their hands, emitting a fog-like white light, but their heads seemed to be covered with a dark cloud.

In the middle of the avenue, these soldiers met the firefly who were observing them. The soldiers who did not know her were a little surprised that there was such a spirit and lovely girl in the fortress now, but they did not make any move. Instead, a kind leader reminded him, "Child, the fortress is now imposing a curfew. You can't go out. And it's so late. Go back and go with your parents, don't worry them."

"Yes, the weather is so cold, why are you going out?"

The other soldiers also agreed in unison, and a guy even joked: "Actually, she is not dangerous either. Look at her clothes and hair, her skin is as white as snow. Walking on the street full of frosty and snow, if you don't pay attention, you can't see anyone at all."

"It's really, it's snow-white."

With this forced joke, everyone smiled, their spirits were a little excited, and then they continued patrolling. As for Firefly - there is no danger in the fortress now? It was just to remind her not to go home too late and scare the little girl in their eyes.

“…”

The girl with silver hair turned sideways as she looked at the backs of the soldiers gradually fading away, and said with some displeasure: "I'm not a little girl, I'm obviously... the master is twenty-one or twenty-three years old... Yes, I'm obviously twenty-one!"

The explanation came a little late, and the patrol soldiers had already left the other end of the street, and could not hear her answer.

After walking for a while, not far ahead, the central warehouse of the fortress was the fortress. It was actually a material transit area. As the most important place in the fortress today, there were about twenty or thirty people guarding each other back and forth inside and outside the warehouse. They were wearing mail and half-helmets, carrying long swords and solid wooden shields, and patrolling back and forth with the hexagrams on the red-bottomed gold edges.

Although monsters are not like humans attacking and defending each other, they will focus on raiding the other's material centers, after all, there are many flying monsters and a large number of smart ones. As long as they are likely to be attacked, they must not relax. These soldiers are in good spirits. Although they seem to be a little tired, they seem to have at least received enough sleep.

At first, the guards in the warehouse wanted to stop the little girl from approaching, but the chief here had already received a greeting from his superior. After confirming that Firefly had been granted permission, the guy who looked haggard and looked like he had not had a good sleep for several days walked into the warehouse with a wry smile on his face.

"Oh, it's really miserable. There is actually no shortage of weapons and armor in the warehouse. Otherwise, everyone wouldn't have thrown the damaged weapons on the side of the road, but there are enough weapons and not enough staff..."

The haggard warehouse chief complained to the firefly: "Average militias cannot wear such heavy armor at all, and even formal soldiers may not be able to walk smoothly. The most scarce ones now are chain mail and wide wooden shields... If these heavy armors can help those reinforcements knights, just take them away. It is useless to put them here."

He did not intend to save his lord, and this was exactly what Verdanni meant - fifty silver knights were naturally not a big deal in the beast tide, but above the city wall, it could guarantee that the range of at least a few hundred meters was absolutely unsuccessful, and it was enough to make great efforts. Fifty sets of armor were nothing to the wealthy Scalant family.

To be honest, if the fortress was not originally made of a small stone mountain hollow, the body would be too wide. Otherwise, the fifty knights would definitely be a very critical force, but the vast line of defense weakened the importance of the knights.

Ying talked to the warehouse chief from time to time and asked what something she had never seen before, and the tired middle-aged man was still quite energetic and explained one by one.

It was not until they entered the second floor warehouse that the two of them became quiet.

The center of the warehouse on the second floor of the underground floor is flashing with the white light of the pyroxene eternal light. This light shines in the sealed armor and swords around it, illuminating the entire warehouse hall.

"What kind of armor does that Lord Moldavia like? Tell me the size and I can choose for you."

It was obvious that Firefly seemed to be unable to choose at all, but the warehouse chief said this with confidence: "If you don't say anything else, when it comes to familiarity with the style of armor and weapons, there are not many people in Moldova who can surpass me."

“…Since that’s the case, please.”

The distressed firefly simply reported a large string of data, and not long after, the smiley warehouse chief took out the armor that met the requirements.

The armor that was turned into a small model by the reduction technique and weightlessness technique was placed in a small box and handed to the silver-haired girl.

"Thank you so much!"

"We should thank you."

With a wry smile, the middle-aged man shook his head and said, "No one can tell that if the adults had not brought troops to disperse the beast tide, today would be the day when our city was destroyed... Alas."

Speaking of this, he sighed again: "No matter what, at least I can rest now... You and that adult must take care of yourself."

"……Um."

After holding the box and saying goodbye to the guards, Firefly left the city center.

Between the cold wind and haze, the silver-haired girl walked on the quiet streets following the sensation of the contract.

She walked slowly towards the wall in front of the fortress.
