That's very badass

Chapter 45 Leave
The sun slowly climbed to the center, accompanied by drizzle.

Jeremy, who was standing in the distance to hide from the rain, couldn't help being a little puzzled when he realized that they hadn't set off yet.

But according to his understanding, there was no need for Roland and the others to lie to himself, an outsider, because lying to himself would not do them any good, not to mention their disappointed expressions, which could never be faked.

He watched Andal leave here with the soldiers. A few hours later, there seemed to be more than [-] armored soldiers. He knew that they should be leaving.

as predicted.

Jeremy stared at the soldiers and civilians filing out of the wooden fortress. What puzzled him was that almost all of them were smiling.

What happened to them?Are they still so happy after losing the stronghold that protected them and heading to the Evernight Forest filled with trolls?

Could it be that Roland and the others promised them something?However, even if they promise something, they should know that the troll will not let them go easily.

Being a normal person would never be like them!

I don't know if it was an illusion, but in the drizzle, they seemed to be walking briskly, but they clearly carried so much cargo.

These people must be out of their minds!That's Jeremy's conclusion, they're a bunch of lunatics.

The team gradually moved away, accompanied by the pattering of twigs in the pattering of spring rain, which also brought up the mud on the ground.

Yesterday, he did not choose to go back and report to Viscount Whitnet, because he knew that Roland and the others would leave today.Even if he rushed back yesterday and told Viscount Whitnet, even if Viscount Whitnet forced them to stay, they might have become the rations of trolls at that time.

After being scolded by Viscount Whitnet, he also realized the various possibilities he brought back last time, perhaps, how incompetent he was.

The purpose of his staying here is to see if they choose to leave here or enter the Forest of Eternal Night.

Now that he got the answer he needed, it was time to go back and report all this to Viscount Whitnet.

He glanced at Baron Powell next to him, and didn't intend to say hello, but started to turn his horse's head.

After saying goodbye this time, I don't know if I can see the warrior who defeated me again - Roland.

Maybe this is farewell. I don't know why, but I feel a little irritated.

It may be because of Baron Powell's shamelessness next to him, or it may be because of Viscount Whitnet's cunning, or it may be a kind of pity for the stubborn pioneers.

I don't know since when, he has become what Zeng Jin hates the most.

With a light sigh, his legs clamped the horse's belly lightly, and with the sound of "drive", the horse that received the order started to run straight away.

Watching Jeremy Knight beside him leave, Baron Powell spit in disdain.Look at the mercenaries who have disappeared.

With the soldiers who had been waiting behind him for a long time, he occupied this stronghold.

Because of the special nature of the forest, their marching team became a long snake. As the elongated team marched, as the stampede continued, the road they traveled became more and more muddy, which made the following soldiers It was difficult.

When encountering a place that the horse-drawn carriage could not pass, they could choose to detour at first. As the tribe deepened, the trees became more and more dense. At this time, they could only choose to split the trees to open the way.

The twists and turns also made the speed of the entire team slower and slower.

The carriage fell into the mud pit again, and then was slowly pulled out amidst the shouts of the soldiers.

Looking at the struggling team, Roland became more and more eager for a good road.

It's a pity that they didn't have the manpower and material resources to build a paved road like the one built during the First Empire.

Estimating the speed of the march, Roland knew that they could only reach the stronghold they captured from the trolls in the Evernight Forest tonight.

Even if there is time left, it is not enough for them to come to Calradia.

It seems that tonight they can only live in the stronghold. Remembering that there is still some time left, Roland plans to open a fixed passage.

Fortunately, the entire army had stockpiled enough axes during logging to make the task feasible.

Roland immediately ordered: "Everyone, take out the axes you carry with you and open up a four-meter-wide road. This will be our communication channel with the outside world in the future."

The soldiers who heard the order quickly took out their axes and began to cut down trees to open up roads.

Looking at the soldiers taking turns to open up the road, everyone is wet.

He chose to recruit 80 farmers, took them to the stronghold first, and chose a straight line according to the map, and left marks along the way.

This can reduce the detours they take and reach the stronghold faster.

Roland led the peasants and left traces of cutting on the trees with an ax as they marched.At the same time, pick up dead branches scattered on the ground, which are necessary supplies for starting a fire.

Fortunately, this thing can be found almost everywhere.

Because the stronghold does not have so many reserves of wood, it is used to prepare food, make fire and boil water.

Wet wood cannot be burned. They can only choose to make a fire and then dry the wood to a certain extent before it can be used as fuel.

These dry branches on the ground are a better choice.

The flames can bring warmth to the soldiers, and at the same time can make their clothes dry.

As for boiling water, it is caused by drinking more hot water; at least, this can also reduce the bacteria and harmful microorganisms ingested.

Boiled water not only quenches thirst, but also promotes metabolism through cells, regulates body temperature, increases hemoglobin content in blood, improves immune function of the body, and improves the body's ability to resist diseases.

Warm boiled water can increase the activity of lactate dehydrogenase in the organs, which is beneficial to quickly reduce the "fatigue element" - lactic acid accumulated in the muscles, so as to achieve the purpose of eliminating fatigue and rejuvenating.

These are all they need, and Roland can't understand their habit of drinking wine like water.

With such a dishonest grain output, I don't know where they got the courage to make wine.

Well, although they often use various picked fruits to make wine, but that can also be used as food, can't it?
This is probably the gap between Eastern and Western cultures.

Roland quickly arrived at the stronghold with the farmers, and then the farmers started their work.

They piled the dead branches they picked up along the way under the shed, then took out the dry wood to light a fire, and then went to look for new dead branches.

The firewood needed to supply all the people with clothes to dry and food to eat was not insignificant.

Some people began to prepare food, while others scooped out cold water from the wells, set up pots to boil water, and then dragged the water tanks used by the trolls to store hot water under the shed.

The farmers are busy in an orderly manner, and it is a good enjoyment just to watch them work in an orderly manner.
