276. the 276th chapter avalanche
December 3, afternoon.
Southeast of the Kingdom of Hollier, the royal city of Ignaz.
Since the Conqueror Connor unifies the entire Karen Kingdom seventy years ago, this great emperor has taken the royal family into the "white city" of "Ignaz", which is piled up by countless granites.
.
This city built by the sea has the most developed port in the country. At this time, the mainland was in an era when the "age of navigation" had not yet begun, so all the few maritime trades in the kingdom were in Ignaz, and therefore, this place became
The kingdom is the richest and the largest city with the rich and poor gap.
None of them.
The dusty Knight Wellington was standing in front of the inner city of the city, silent.
He traveled through the cold mountains and forests, crossed the dangerous road, and came here with emergency letters from the Duke of Angma. However, what greeted him was the cold-looking guards outside the kingdom, and the white ones were suppressed.
marble walls.
"Knight, your letter has been submitted to Your Majesty. If there is nothing else, please leave here."
The royal guards in golden armor blocked Wellington outside the palace. The ghost knight stood there. Although the other party's words were just formulaic refusals, it made him feel that there was an inexplicable depression in his heart.
The royal family's fear of the Russiflon family is an undisclosed secret, and all the cold receptions are already expected.
But...will this nominal king really care about what happened at the border of the kingdom?
He looked at the majestic but erosive palace in front of him, shook his head secretly, and turned around and left.
*******
"What exactly do these undead... want to do?"
In the center of the Palace of Ferminon, King Charles II, who was sitting on the throne, looked gloomy and seemed to pass through the hall in front of him and projected to the end of the kingdom-but in fact, all he could see was the cold marble.
ornate walls and sculptures of the ancient kings.
The Ferminon Palace, which has accumulated countless wealth, can no longer be measured with gold coins. In such an environment, the most emotion that thirty-six-year-old Charles II has every day is "pride"...
Like all the nobles of this city, they were intoxicated by the glory of the past and were proud of the smooth situation that the entire kingdom now has.
For Charles II, who had never left Ignaz City in his life, his concept of the territory area of the Kingdom of Karen is still stuck on books and papers, "Everta Territory", "Western Frontier", "Gondora Mountains"
"For him, such words are characters, and as for the certain meanings contained behind them, the king didn't care.
"Everta is Angma. He has to take care of this matter no matter how he is. As for how he is, it is his own business. I just need to get the result..."
In Charles II, the plans proposed by the prime minister when he discussed with him were completely redundant - what he wanted was the result, not an excuse.
The sun shines down from the hole directly above the Ferminon Palace. The light in the afternoon just shines on Charles II on the throne. The platinum robe reflects the light, which sets the king as dazzling as a god.
.
And he also enjoyed this feeling very much.
"Augustin has already bowed his head and is willing to apologize to me. What else does Angma want? Karen and Tasman have to give each other face--since that old skeleton sincerely admits his mistake, why should we continue to make things difficult for each other? Make enemies indiscriminately,
It’s not worth the loss.”
"The Gondora Mountains are not our territory. They do whatever they want. Let me reply to Angma and let him restrain himself. Don't always look like he's going to fight at any time." Charles II smiled, as if he was to do it.
I thought of something, "After all... these bones are far more sincere than those orcs. At least I like the things they sent."
"Please say goodbye to the knight who delivered the letter, don't make people think that our royal family is stingy."
"Already gone? Ho..."

December 3rd, dusk.
The team heading to Sola's post continued to move in the cold wind. The mountain road was not steep, but because of the thick snow, the speed of the entire team was not ideal. If the road conditions were still bad, then the plan would be to cross in three days.
The mountains may have to be delayed for four or even five days before they can be completed.
This is definitely not good news for Roddy, who is eager to go to the "Sora Post" to support him.
However, on the way into the mountain, no one could see anything from Roddy's expression. He was silent all the way, and he would only say a few more words when he taught Akasha's high elf-
"The meaning of this word is a bit complicated to explain. In this sentence, it means 'expression'. But here... Yes, in this sentence, it means 'signal'."
The sun gradually sets, and only the afterglow is left in the sky. When the handwriting on the book blurs, Roddy reaches out and closes the "Essence of Energy" and whispers to Akasha: "Let's come here today, go back and review it carefully
.”
The beautiful pastor put away his notebook and nodded obediently - no matter what there is between Roddy and Nata, when he sat beside him, Akasha was in a very peaceful and pleasant mood, but after a few casual conversations
, She turned around and wanted to leave, but was suddenly stopped by Roddy-
"By the way, come to my tent tonight."
Roddy didn't explain the reason, but just gave the order like this - this statement seemed to be a little ambiguity, which made Akasha stand in place, blink and asked, "Is there...what is there?"
"It's very important," Roddy looked around, confirming that no one eavesdropped, and whispered: "I haven't told you before, so I need to talk to you today."
Akasha had never seen Roddy have such a tone before, and she felt a little nervous. His originally snow-white skin spread a pink color. His eyes were staring at Roddy and he was stunned, even forgot to say anything.
"What? Not very comfortable?"
Rodie frowned and asked, with a little confused look on his face. Akasha quickly shook her head: "No, no, no, no problem, I will come."
Akasha finally said this, and her palms were sweating nervously. When she turned around, her legs tripped and almost fell. She was held by Roddy and ran away stumbled away...
"It's not...what has it been misunderstood?"
Roddy scratched her head. Although her emotional intelligence was low, she had contact with many women after traveling through time. Roddy finally had some simple understanding and judgment on some of the performances of women - he was sure,
Akasha's performance just now was "shy".
I just told her a plan, what's there to be shy about? I'm not going to confess my love to her...
Wait...wait!
Recalling Akasha's performance in front of him, Roddy's brows became tighter and tighter. Finally, she let out a breath and rubbed her brows helplessly. Obviously, he had always been slow in his mind and finally took the initiative to figure out something: Aka
Sha had a good impression of herself and thought she was going to confess to her today.
Roddy admired that he could figure out these things, but the troubles that followed gave him a headache... Although the pastor had a gentle personality, a hot figure and a beautiful face, Roddy had a deep affection for Nafi, and was completely in line with him.
Kasha has never had any idea!
"Is it because my face looks good?"
Roddy had basically never paid attention to his appearance, but he didn't think he was handsome either - this may be the habit of walking alone too much in the past. If he couldn't figure out the reason, Roddy was too lazy to think more, and he muttered,
When he turned around, Nata's figure had already appeared quietly not far away.
The wood elf just looked at Akasha and thoughtfully, but when reporting the information, he returned to his former indifference.
“Confirmed?”
"It has been confirmed that there are six in total,"
"That's probably tonight."
Roddy confirmed his thoughts and breathed a sigh of relief. After Nata left, she whispered a few words with Soderol, and then gave an order to the whole team: "Before dark, rest on the mountainside in front of her."
.”
There is a slightly empty and flat area in front of the view, which is located on the side of the mountainside. On one side is a cliff with a drop of 100 meters, and on the other side is a slightly steep and snow-covered mountain wall. The mountain wind is blocked here a little, and it looks just right
Suitable for garage.
The soldiers obeyed the order and soon arrived at the scheduled location. Then they started to build tents and bury pots to make rice as before... When it was dark, campfires lit up in the camp, reflecting the snow.
Conspicuous tent.
The sky above my head was covered by clouds, the moonlight was dim, and it seemed that it was going to snow again tomorrow.
Roddy raised her head, her eyes swept across the hovering black bird in the dark night sky, and turned to Soderol and said, "Everything will be done as planned, let's start."
*******
midnight.
There was no movement in the camp, and clusters of bonfires were swaying in the cold wind, leaving only a dim orange light.
There were no flying black birds in the sky, but the silence at this moment showed an inexplicable strangeness.
"boom!"
The deafening explosion sounded without warning, and then a thunderstorm seemed to be triggered between the mountain walls. After the first sound, the second and third explosions appeared one after another!
"Click!"
The snow collapsed and broke instantly, and then began to slide along the steep hillside.
At first the snow did not fall quickly, but with the sixth and seventh explosions applying the impact to the snow, almost all the snow on the hillside began to move faster...
avalanche!
It was more than 600 meters from the place where the snow had fallen to the mountainside. The snow was moving faster and faster. Later, it completely showed a landslide and cracked. It took almost half a minute to rush to the camp!
Before the snow arrived, the terrifying airflow had blown away countless tents on the ground...
"Crazy--"
From a distance, the bonfires were instantly as powerless as matches extinguished by sea water, and completely disappeared in the blink of an eye.
In two seconds, the camp of more than 200 people was completely destroyed by an avalanche and buried...
Chapter completed!
