There is only one week left before the new year, and the charity white room is also extremely busy. On the Fire Moon Day the day after Hobik disappeared with Parrish, Mrs. Lily fell into confusion after discovering that Hobik was missing.
In a state of panic, she even thought about going to the Law Enforcement Department to issue a missing person notice. Fortunately, she was stopped by Arthur who knew the whole story. And George used Captain Dodge to appoint another person to take Hobik away and protect him at night.
The lie deceived Mrs. Lily.
School has been closed. Arthur and Caterina have been going to the Pea Bookstore two streets away every day to learn new knowledge. They also tried asking George to come with them, but George didn't know what he was busy with. He couldn't see anyone in the afternoon.
There were quite a lot of wounds on her face, and when Mrs. Lily asked, George casually fooled her around.
It's another moonless day. Parrish once mentioned not to underestimate the water wizard under the water moon. Arthur thought a lot about this. He just heard Livlan mention that the moon has changed into a state with natural attributes.
, now Arthur is fully aware that each moon shape corresponds to the ability of a wizard. In other words, the wizard has a total of 8 natural attributes, right? Gold, wood, water, fire, earth, plus thunder and wind, then
What kind of state is 'nothing'?
Arthur and Catalina have already entered the Pea Bookstore. Bookshelves filled with various books are placed randomly throughout the bookstore in the shape of spiral towers. Only the top of the book tower has book labels.
Arthur casually flipped through the History of the Human Alliance that he had read a few days ago and touched the top label. There were no books in the category of wizards. Also, if a wizard was known to ordinary people casually, he would not be a wizard. Detour
Passing a man sitting on the ground holding a thick industrial book, Arthur walked to the history bookshelf and took out an old book with a dusty cover and no illustrations. Today, let's take a look at Bray
The development history of Duncheng is good.
King Matthews unified the entire southern continent in 541 years of the lunar calendar, and then the orcs rebelled in 212 years of the lunar calendar. During this period, humans experienced three generations of kings, including the first generation of kings, the conquering king Matthews, the diligent king Aesop, and the pioneering king.
Wang Dai and the sick king Dracula after the rebellion of the beasts, the Ax Breaker King Jiexiu and the pioneer of the new calendar, the wizard Rhine, Rhine. Hebrew, who has few records in human history.
Brighton City joined the Human Alliance in the 129th year of the lunar calendar, so in the end only Jiexiu was able to claim the title of king, and Rhine could only be called the city lord. The biggest difference between humans in the Southern Continent and the Eastern Continent is their personalities. People in the Southern Continent
They claim to be elegant, but the people of the Eastern Continent are mainly enthusiastic and good at communicating. After joining the Human Alliance, in the 114th year of the old calendar, a large number of people from the Eastern Continent poured into the Southern Continent, and formed the current situation. Many children from the Southern Continent now
It's a mixed race. Mixed race is different from mixed race. Of course, Arthur doesn't understand the concept of mixed race yet.
The book writes that Brighton City was originally no more than the size of a small town. With the help of Gaia, the goddess of earth and harvest, several orc tribes living in the northwest corner of the southern continent were dispersed, and Brighton City was able to
Expand. The gods have been helping us. Arthur couldn't help but think of the legend about the wizards slaying the gods. What is the relationship between the gods and our races? From the current point of view, the gods have been helping us.
As we become stronger, why are we afraid of us mastering the power of nature? At the end of the book, there is the development history of the New Calendar of Brighton City's Giant Gate. In the 1st year of the New Calendar, the moon changed, and in the 11th year of the New Calendar, the invention of dwarves and humans
The oil lamp... Until five years ago now, this book had not been updated for five years.
The information he knew was too little to know the truth inside, so Arthur had to hide these thoughts first. Putting the book back on the shelf, Catalina was still reading a cookbook, and Arthur was about to read it.
Another book introducing the industrialization of mankind in the new era. A newsboy outside the door shouted big events, big events, and ran past the door of the bookstore. "This kid," said the bookstore owner, a hunchbacked and bald man in his eighties.
Wearing a pair of heavy glasses, he walked to the door and yelled at the newsboy to tell him to be quiet and disturb his book friends from reading.
The boss's voice made Catalina frown. Several book friends closed their books and walked to the boss to accuse him louder than the newsboy. "What's going on, Arthur?" Catalina crossed her arms.
He stood next to Arthur.
"I don't know," Arthur raised his head and looked at Katarina. The only thing that Arthur could think of that could be called a big event recently was the gathering of the orc chiefs that he heard about last month. He also read the newspaper intermittently after that.
According to tracking reports on the Internet, after humans sent a 50-man reconnaissance force, Admiral Horton added an additional 500-man elite force to station in Sunset Town. Soon after, the elves took half a month to integrate an elven archer.
The troops arrived at Sunset Town and met up with the human troops stationed there. But this was a long way from Arthur.
"I got a newspaper!" At this time, a voice came from the door. The eyes of everyone in the bookstore were instantly attracted. The discussion voices that were originally talking about the boss became quiet.
The book friend who got the newspaper waited until all eyes were on him, opened the newspaper, and read in a voice that could be heard by everyone in the bookstore:
"On the day before yesterday, the Human Elf Front Alliance encountered the Orc troops in the canyon east of Sunset Town. They were severely defeated by the Orc troops. Only 12 of the 200-man army and two elves fled back to Sunset Town."
What!? There was an uproar in the bookstore. The reason why humans have been the dominant force in the southern continent in recent years is because they have stronger military power than the orcs and elves. Although the main weapons used by the troops are still cold weapons, a few generals have already brought them with them.
With long spears or handguns. Coupled with the agile execution of the elves, it is difficult to imagine that they would lose to the orcs, and such a tragic defeat.
Most of the people in the bookstore couldn't believe it, but they overlooked one point. In the past, the orcs were all independent of each other. This time, the orcs were united. Naturally, they could not view today's orcs the same way as in the past.
Orcs... Arthur's expression was particularly solemn. When he heard this word, his body would tremble instinctively, and he would think of the scene of the giant ax chasing after him.
"The newspaper also said that after a meeting between Edwards and several generals, they decided to send more manpower and recruit troops throughout the city. This was a military call-up order."
A convening order means that during a special period, the city lord can ask the residents to do a certain thing within the jurisdiction and ask the council to vote collectively to pass the convening order. The last convening order was the food convening order issued by the previous city lord. There was a moment in the bookstore.
People were in panic, and people were talking about this defeat in every corner. Arthur and Caterina lost interest in continuing to read and had to go home first.
Along the way, everyone on the street was holding newspapers and discussing, either about the failure of the war or about the city lord's summons, with some crying and swearing mixed in.
"I didn't expect to lose so miserably this time." "What should I do now?" "My nephew is also on that team..." "Damn the beasts!"
Arthur thought of the fire in Green Village, his parents, and the last glance of his father and mother before they died. He looked at Catalina beside him, his voice trembling:
