265. The crisis in the small town of Maas


It snowed all night.The attic windows were covered with snow, and the glass windows were covered with a thick layer of ice flowers, and the harsh light from the outside allowed the ice flowers to reflect into the room, leaving cloudy marks on the floor.The fire on the side of the closet in the living room downstairs had cooled down, and there was no warmth in the room, so I got up from the bed, stood barefoot on the cold floor, and pushed open the window that was about to be buried by the snow, and a cold wind squeezed in through the crack in the window with fine snowflakes, and I breathed in the fresh air, and I felt like I hadn't been in a long time.I love the cold winters, after all, for me there was a happy childhood spent in the cold mountains of Neosiacis.I'm not afraid of the cold, especially since Wo learned to use ice magic, and this level of cold has had little effect on me.After the heavy snow cleared, the world in front of me seemed to have been completely washed, the blue sky, the bright sunshine, the clean air, the whole world outside was a dazzling silver white, I squinted my eyes into the distance, sighed slightly, this night of heavy snow I don't know how many homeless people will freeze to death.Ryan was already standing at the gate with a snow shovel to shovel the snow, the snow was so great that the branch of a plane tree at the gate had been completely broken.Ruka the Minotaur stood naked in the snow in the backyard, rubbing his body with the snow, bathing in the minotaur way, and didn't seem to feel a little cold.Beside him was a set of steel armor mixed with magic black iron, the whole set of steel armor was covered with sharp spikes, and a simple magic talisman was engraved on the steel armor, which made this set of steel armor stained with a little magic breath.However, this is not a magic pattern set, it can just become a magic armor, it is a grade lower than the magic pattern construction, it is only the simplest magic pattern carved on the surface of the armor, so that the armor defense attribute can be slightly improved, not like the magic pattern construction, which can improve the basic attributes of the warrior itself, such as strength, agility, physique or skills.So it's just a piece of magic armor.This is also the other day, after I have just successfully created the Frost Nova magic scroll, I remembered that I should buy a black iron cuirass for the Minotaur Ruka, obviously, the Minotaur Ruka likes this cuirass very much, and he sits in the snow and does not forget to wipe the cuirass inside and out with the white snow like sand.I was thinking that it must be very cold in such a cold winter, wearing such armor, but fortunately it was a strong minotaur.Just thinking about the feeling of the cold black iron heavy armor on my body, I couldn't help but shudder.Tracy stood in the doorway wrapped in a thick cashmere blanket, looking at me sleepily and asking, "Jiga, don't you feel cold at all?"

”"Oh, it snowed so hard last night!"

I turned to her and reached out to close the window.Tracy seems to be going downstairs to hide by the fireplace for breakfast, and Fanny will light the fire in the fireplace early.In the morning, drinking hot porridge around the fireplace is definitely a great pleasure and will make your whole body feel warm."

Wait, Tracy, I've got something for you!"

I called out to Tracy as she was about to go downstairs, then picked up the bundle of nine Frost Nova magic scrolls on my desk, walked up to her and stuffed them into her arms.As she looked at me in amazement, she piled a large bundle of hydrotherapy scrolls and a whole pack of fire-gathering scrolls into her hands.Tracy looked at me with some exaggeration: "Hey, you don't want me to carry so many scrolls for you, you don't have a magic belt, you can't count on it, I'll stay by your side during the battle, send those scrolls to you, I can't use these scrolls, let's carry something else!"

”Obviously, she wanted to tell me: how can a swordsman like me stand by your side and accompany you all the time when you are fighting!

I put on my socks, put the boots that were a little hard from the cold, and tucked the legs of my leggings into the boots, and moved my body, and felt that the various movements were quite flexible, so I stopped, and then while tidying up the desk, I said to Tracy, "These are not for me, the scrolls I use have been prepared for a long time."

You can tell me that these scrolls should be sent to Arendt, and now the North Wind Legion should be about to go out, although he is a lieutenant's deputy, but if he encounters a barbarian, it will probably be very dangerous. ”I put the skinning knife in the scabbard with my thigh in it, and then said what I thought: "There must be a magician in his ranks, and you write to him to tell him that before each action, take out a few scrolls and give them to the magician, maybe he will get extra attention!"

However, those fire-gathering magic scrolls were still kept by him, in such a cold weather, it must be very cold inside the marching tent, so he must know how to take care of himself!

”Tracy was a little moved, a little annoyed, and finally said to me, "You're so long-winded!

”He staggered back to his room.But let's be honest, if you can get along well with a magician in the team, it will make Arendt feel deeply.This is the first year that he has participated in the encirclement and suppression of barbarians with the army, and it can also be said that his rookie career has just begun, at this time, if there are people in the team to take care of it, it will add a lot of security factors."

Fanny, go boil some hot water, she must be frozen.Jijia, come down and help!

”Ryan shouted downstairs in a heavy voice, he was a gentleman, he never liked to make loud noises, and had always kept himself polite, but there seemed to be something urgent downstairs that made him very anxious, otherwise he would not have spoken to me in such a commanding tone.I hurriedly ran downstairs, and the wooden stairs rattled incessantly, and I asked as I ran, "What's wrong, Ryant?"

”At this time, Ryan had already wrapped a girl covered in snow, her hair was covered with ice ballast, her face was blue from the cold, and she was already unconscious, and for a moment I saw her face under her scattered hair, she was very young, and felt a little familiar, but I didn't remember who it was, and I didn't deliberately think about it, after all, the women in my social circle could be counted on one hand.It must have been a refugee who had taken refuge in the city from outside the city, but she was frozen in the cold after a heavy snowfall yesterday.Refugees like this, the rich area of Dongcheng is still rarely seen, there are guards and knights guarding several main streets in Dongcheng District, the entire Dongcheng District is inhabited by some nobles and high-income citizens, almost every year most of the tax revenue in Elcheng comes here, so the security here is very well managed, few refugees will mix into this block, they will be uniformly introduced into the temporary refugee camp set up by the vegetable market and slave market in the south of the city."

You picked it up from the street?"

I leaned over to help Ryan and carried her into the bathroom, and the best way to deal with the frozen person was to soak her in warm water while she was still dead."

Are you sure she's not frozen yet?"

I felt that her legs were stiff, and her body was as stiff as a dead corpse when she picked it up, and it didn't make the slightest sense to toss a dead person like this."

Please, when I saw her, she was still walking staggeringly, she fell in front of me, and when I hugged her, I could still feel a trace of warmth in her heart, but her body temperature was too low, she should be frostbitten all over, Jijia, you know what you should do!"

Ryan had already glanced at me, and he put the girl in the bathtub with a thick blanket attached.Fanny, who was standing in the bathroom, was preparing hot water, and when she saw that Rryant was rudely wrapping the whole body of the girl wrapped in a blanket, she said angrily to Lryant, "What are you doing!

This is the blanket I just bought, this thing will not warm up when it is stained with water, and I always want to save people, there are at least tens of thousands of refugees gathered in the south of the city, how many can you save?

Get out of here, Giga, what are you doing here, let Tracy come in and help me!

”Fanny is typical of knife mouths and tofu hearts.She was reluctant to speak, but there was no slackness in her hands, first she pulled her beloved blanket off the girl's body, and began to reach out to untie the girl's clothes, and had already poured warm water into the bathtub, Fanny's method was more effective, if it was through the clothes, the water would be soaked through the clothes, and it might become colder, and only by being naked and immersed in the water could she quickly recover her body temperature."

Because I'm an apprentice in magic, Fanny!"

I said to Fanny.Fanny looked at me with some confusion."

My teacher is Heidi, a water magician!"

I said again."

You're a magic apprentice, do you have the right to break into a bathroom while a lady is taking a shower?"

Fanny lowered her voice and quickly scolded me, apparently she didn't understand what I meant.I didn't want to be misunderstood by Fanny, so I quickly explained, "The first magic I learned at the Academy of Magic was hydrotherapy!"

”Yes, I'm an apprentice of auxiliary water magic, Fanny probably forgot about this in a hurry, and only then did she remember it after listening to my explanation.He quickly dragged me in, looked at me in amazement, and said, "Oh my God, I almost forgot."

You kid, so what are you waiting for?

Hurry up and save her!

”In fact, I've never shown my magical powers in front of my family, not even hydrotherapy.It's the first time I've used magic in front of Fanny, and deep down I still have a sense of joy in showing off my abilities in front of adults, and I really hope that Fanny can compliment me.I also couldn't understand my childlike mentality at this time, and I found that I was really gradually integrating into this body.The gorgeous blue array rose from under her feet, the complicated and jerky ancient elf magic spells, a beam of pure white water element magic enveloped the girl's whole body, at this time she was already naked in the bathtub, her figure was a little thin, and her skin was gray, it was a color on the verge of death, probably the blood in her body was about to coagulate!

The water element, which had a strong breath of life, turned into a shiny and constantly twinkling star around the girl's body, with a crisp rustling sound.The strong vitality and vitality entered the girl's body, and when the spell was cast, I didn't want to stand here and wait for Fanny to scold, so I quickly hid out of the bathroom.That's when Tracy poked his head out of the stairs and asked, "What's wrong?"

I pointed to Lyant, who was sitting at the dining table reading the newspaper, and said softly: He rescued a refugee!

Tracy patted her forehead speechlessly, and deliberately shouted at the bathroom, "Fanny, do you still need my help?"

”"Thank you, dear, for being able to handle her myself!"

Fanny's voice echoed through the bathroom.Sometimes, I suddenly have a feeling that the world is so small.But if you think about it, it was no accident, Cindy sat quietly by the fireplace, weakly holding a bowl of cereal porridge, she was obviously very hungry, although her body was still a little stiff, and she did not obey the call, but she was still trying to drink the porridge.When she came out of the bathroom in Tracy's pajamas and pajamas, and was helped by Fanny, I saw her little face that was blue from the cold, it was the girl who was rescued with Sue in the temple incident, she said that her home was in the small town of Maas, and there was no news since she returned home, and I didn't expect that just a few months later, she had returned to the city of El again.I think she must have come to find Su, but Su had already followed Ying Li to the imperial capital, and Anne had also stepped on the airship bound for Strange Rock City in the fall, and the house was currently empty.Cindy said that she had been wandering in front of Sue's house for nearly a night, she didn't know that Sue was far away, she just wanted to wait for Sue to come home, she came to join her friend, but she didn't expect it to be empty.According to the information that Cindy brought back, several squads of barbarians who hunted slaves had gathered outside the town of Maas, and they had already posed a serious threat to the town, and it was unknown if they would bulldoze the entire town in anger.Moreover, they had already plundered some slaves in the town, and the mayor had sent several groups of messengers to ask the knights of El City to send troops to drive the barbarians away, but unfortunately the news kept falling into the sea.I don't think the higher-ups in El City will send reinforcements, they don't dare to joke about their city.The natural environment of this world is more difficult, and people's physique is better, and the northerners are obviously more able to tolerate the cold, even if the body is frozen and about to die, after being rescued, there will be no blackening of the tissue structure of all parts of the body, at most it is possible to be frostbitten, and then the frostbite will be itchy and unbearable throughout the winter.Looking at Cindy's unspeakable and pitiful eyes, I couldn't comfort her with anything.I don't have much time to catch up, today is the day the eagles gather.My argument to Fanny and Ryan was that there was a big problem in the Academy of Magic, and I needed to study it with my magic mentor, at least for this time, and I proposed to take Ruka and Tracy the Minotaur with me, although this reason was far-fetched, but I succeeded in bringing both Tracy and Ruka out of the house, and I needed to hurry to the gate of the War Academy to assemble, where there were powerful new companions to be continued.
