The moment Lucius stepped out of the tent, he couldn't help shivering.

Elves are significantly more resistant to extreme temperatures than humans and dwarves, but right now, the temperature outside the tent is a bit too low.

It was clear that the night sky was gloomy, darker than the previous two days.Lucius looked around in surprise, only to find that the surroundings were stained with white: "It's actually snowing?"

The light on the torch reflected Qi Lier's nervous expression: "Yes, the wind started to blow in the evening like the previous two days, and it didn't slow down after dark, and it started snowing soon. Go and see Look at those dwarves!"

"Dwarves?" Lucius was stunned for a moment before realizing that Qi Lier was talking about a few dwarves who had been petrified by him, and his face tightened immediately.

Moving quickly, Lucius found that the movement in the camp was far greater than he expected.The place where he lived was close to the junction of the human and dwarf tent areas, but far away from the elves' quarters.However, they did not see dwarves at the moment, but saw waves of humans and elves with hurried and anxious expressions.If it is possible for humans to show sympathy for what happened to the dwarves, it is absolutely impossible for the elves to panic because of several injured dwarves: "What's wrong?"

"The temperature is too cold. They said that we may not be able to keep the food we planted." Qi Lier looked worried, "After you have seen the dwarves, go to the field to have a look. Everyone has already ordered The torch went to check the situation of the grain, and I don’t know if it can be saved.”

Lucius frowned upon hearing this, but didn't ask any more questions.

After dinner, the sky was almost completely dark.Without light, naturally no work can be carried out.Neither humans nor elves nor dwarves moved around the camp much.Because there were almost no people outdoors, when the snow fell, they were not discovered in time.

The dwarves took turns guarding the companion who was petrified by Lucius.It's just that the dwarf, who has always been soft but not strong, can't easily bow to Lucius and beg for mercy.Moreover, these guys who only know how to forge iron will not react at all, realizing that there is an inevitable connection between the sudden snowfall and the grain grown.

The petrified skin is not immune to cold and high heat, and it does not provide them with any help in resisting low temperatures.And when the dwarves couldn't bear the low temperature and came to ask for help, the petrified dwarves had already shown signs of frostbite, and the condition of the farmland that was discovered after that naturally did not leave much for the residents of Changhu Town to think about countermeasures time.

Lucius de-petrified a few dwarves, and immediately asked the other dwarves to carry them back to his tent to keep warm.Instructing Qi Lier to follow up the latest situation on the farmland and report back to herself in time, Lucius followed up with the dwarves.

Groin, who was so flaming during the day, was now out of energy, and right now he didn't have the energy to yell out the words not to bow to the elves, and let several dwarves who came to ask for help surrounded Lucius to check them one by one.

"Since it is found that their situation is wrong, why not report it immediately?"

The dwarves have rough skin and thick flesh, but there is no life-threatening situation, but the frostbite situation is not optimistic.

The dwarves were a little annoyed by what Lucius said, but they didn't have time to jump around right now.Following Lucius' instructions, they split up to boil water, prepare food and keep warm.

Lucius didn't take this opportunity to sneer at the dwarf any more, and ordered a dwarf to follow him back to the tent to get the medicine for frostbite. Lucius then rushed to the direction of the farmland.

Except for Lucius who has been studying the potion in the tent, and a small number of elves and humans who are responsible for surveying the detailed terrain of Changhu Town, most of the existing townspeople in Changhu Town are divided into three teams.In the past two months, human time has been spent tending this large area of ​​food-growing farmland.

Three days ago, the human leader came to report to Lucius that because this year's spring came in time and the temperature was maintained within a suitable range, the grain growth was very good.

The temperature drop in the past two days did not attract enough attention from everyone, until the snow fell, everyone was dumbfounded.

"It should be cold in late spring." The human leader rubbed his hands and reported to Lucius, "It's just that sometimes spring is almost warmer, but at the end of spring, the temperature suddenly drops and it rains or snows."

"What's the situation of these crops now?" Lucius asked with a cold face.

"Very bad, many people may have died from freezing, and everyone is still checking." The human being said, his tone lowered.

"What are they doing?" Lucius frowned, raised his chin, and signaled to the humans and elves who had brought fires to the edge of the field one after another.

"We want to see if this can bring them back some warmth..." The human leader was a little embarrassed, but his tone couldn't hide his anxiety, "We can't leave it alone. If the things we have grown for so long are gone...if they are not Come on, our food reserves will soon be exhausted!"

The threat of food shortage made everyone very nervous, and the depression and sadness made the humans and elves around the farmland busy carrying the wood for burning.However, the farmland is very large, and it is an open land, and the wind and snow continue.Such remedial measures had little effect, and even those who guarded the fire and torches did not enjoy much warmth.

After all, most of the humans in Changhu Town were fishermen. Like the elves and dwarves who were also warriors, they didn't have much experience in growing crops.If we encounter extreme weather again, the result can be imagined.

So far in Changhu Town, the food supplied to all the townspeople has come from the first batch of investments belonging to the Woodland Kingdom, and it is probably only enough to support this batch of crops when they are harvested.

"If I remember correctly, there is not much firewood in the warehouse. With such a low temperature, the amount needed for heating may not be enough. And the newly cut wood may not be able to be supplied in time. .These..." Lucius pointed to the several fires burning in front of him, "Extinguish them..."

"But what to do with the food!" The human leader suddenly became anxious.

"The firewood you burned, how much heat can be supplied to those plants in the end?" Lucius sighed.He naturally did not understand the specific knowledge of these farming.But the role is different, and the balance of interests will naturally be different. He didn't panic like the human leader, "Move the firewood back to your residence, remind everyone to keep warm, and don't suffer from frostbite again. We also don’t have enough stock of herbs.”

"But if you don't rescue them, these crops will freeze to death!" Lucius' words were almost equivalent to giving up these half-dead crops directly, and the human leader was jealous at once.

Lucius patted the other person on the shoulder, and the calmness in his eyes conveyed to the man beside him through his gaze: "You can grow things again when they are gone. What if a person is injured and cannot receive timely treatment?"

The human leader who had snot from the cold sniffed his nose and made a bitter face, but he didn't refute anymore.

After all, it was the result of two months of hard work, and the queue returning to the camp was filled with sadness and despair.

Lucius, who was the leader, had no expression on his face, and seemed to be dignified.In fact, he didn't feel much pessimism in his heart, but was thinking about the future.

In fact, Lucius did not have much expectation for the harvest of this batch of grain.The property under the Malfoy family name also includes the entry of the farm.Under the double blessing of magic and industrial technology, Malfoy's farm occasionally experienced various production reductions and losses, not to mention the current environment where even farming mostly relies on pure manpower.

In his opinion, as long as this year's farming can allow humans to accumulate some more experience, it will have reached the expected progress.

According to Lucius' plan for Changhu Town, this settlement will not follow the route of natural development and expansion with the increase of population concentration.Now that they have the full support of the three parties, Lucius believes that in the initial stage of construction, they already have the capital to build a sufficiently strong and large city once and for all.

Moreover, Lucius didn't have so much time to spend on this, waiting for Changhu Town to grow slowly.

Although it seems that this batch of crops is about to fail, the situation is not that bad.If there is no food, Changhu Town can ask the Elf King for food support.Anyway, the granary of the Woodland Kingdom has never been in a hurry. It is estimated that the big horned deer in Thranduil eat better than the current Bard.Filling the gap in Long Lake Town is no pressure for the elves.Moreover, if you ask for food support from the Woodland Kingdom, you can take advantage of the trend to ask River Valley City and Erebor to invest at the same price, and the money and mineral materials for the initial construction will be readily available. Doing so is completely in the interests of the elves. .

To understand the relationship, Lucius is of course not in a hurry.

"You send someone to send this text message I wrote." Lucius described the situation in Changhu Town in simple words, and then distributed it to Caleb Ross and the human leader, asking them to set off immediately and find three people separately. The funder of the fund.

As a result, less than 10 minutes after the messenger left, the waiting humans were still hesitating whether they could really get the information to deal with the difficulties, and the cries of "da da da" began to come from the edge of the forest outside the camp.

Caleb Rose was still holding the letter asking for help, and there was already a line of elves headed by Annis, and several large carts of food escorted by the elves.

Obviously, the elves' support started earlier than Lucius' decision to ask for help.The mayor of Changhu Town was very surprised.

Lucius only guessed that the elves would not refuse their support, but he didn't guess that Thranduil would pay attention to the movements of Long Lake Town and send them out on his own initiative.

After all, when he left before, Thranduil's attitude was very indifferent.

Here, Lucius was still staring blankly at the logistics elves brought by Annis, and Qi Lier, who was standing not far from him, did not disappoint her excellent eyesight as an archer, and took the lead in cheering: "Your Majesty! Look, Lucius! Your Majesty is coming!"

The shout caused the surrounding humans and elves, who were still immersed in surprise, to raise their heads and look forward to it. Sure enough, a moment later, with the help of the light of the torch, the tall figure riding a big horned deer slowly approaching from the edge of the forest was reflected.

The elves soon joined Qi Lier's cheering ranks.

Turning over and getting off the deer, Thranduil kept his face sullen from the beginning, completely unaffected by the surrounding atmosphere.He looked around at the noise around him, and then turned his gaze to Lucius because of the movement of magic power in front of him.

Here, the big horned deer under the elven throne had already expressed the joy of reunion to the wizard one step ahead of him - biting the cuff of Lucius's wide wizard robe, covered with a pool of saliva.

Lucius suddenly looked helpless, pulled back his sleeve, and then waved his wand to clean it up.

After straightening his sleeves, Lucius raised his head, just in time to meet Thranduil who was looking at him.

Seeing Thranduy's eyebrows arched, the corners of his mouth drooping, his unfriendly micro-expressions formed a very obvious look of disgust: "Why are you dressed like this?"

The author has something to say: the very unfriendly and disliked elf king and the very speechless and disliked wizard~meow~

Hehe, did you guess that the king reappeared so soon?
