miss mist go with the flow

They did sleep in the same bed that night, but they slept in the cemetery in Misty Town. They got up in the middle of the night to chase the undead corporal snatchers, and then turned back to the town to find the grave keeper for information.In the second half, she slept for less than five hours. This afternoon, she went to the Badwater Swamp to catch the necromancer, chased all the way into the misty forest, and found that the bad boy had already thrown herself on the street——

The point is that the matter is not over yet. Judging from the situation, the undead Jernock may have gone another way and returned to Misty Town!

Ami Qi's teeth were itchy, her forehead was getting more painful, and her small fists were also clenched.

Playing hide and seek with me, huh?Don't let me catch you, or you will have good fruit to eat!

Sirin took Amy's perspective and felt tired. She sat down next to her, put her fingers on her forehead, and massaged Amy to soothe her emotions.

The black crow looked around at the surrounding scenery. When she came here last time, Roland took out her identity badge, and the vines automatically let her go. She didn't realize the danger of the thorn bushes.

Take a closer look this time, this bush of thorns is not a simple magical plant, but has grown into a dryad with extremely high spiritual intelligence.

The lethality and defense ability are also very important, and the intruder will be blocked with a thorn cage, waiting for the owner here to deal with it.

As expected of Teacher Miwu, he was able to set up such a powerful defense method!No wonder she didn't want to move to the city, the house provided by the chamber of commerce was not as safe as here!

Helen also looked around, secretly marveling in her heart.

Compared with the others, she is a pure spellcaster, and she can see the magic of the thorn bushes better.

Using the magic array on the ground to produce magical plants with intelligence, the magic plants absorb the free elemental energy in the air and feed it back to the underground magic array, forming a mutual energy supply and mutual growth defense system, which coincides with the natural growth of plants. situation.

Looking at it now, this design idea is not very delicate, but the detailed operation contained in it, she estimated that she would not be able to learn it in decades.

Races like the high elves are really blessed by magic. They are not only talented, but also have enough time to practice, which is really enviable.

"Why don't you just stay here overnight and go to Misty Town tomorrow?"

Seeing Amy's headache, Black Crow suggested.

She really felt sorry for Teacher Miwu, and she didn't want to see Teacher Miwu work too hard.

And after a busy day, Teacher Mi Wu didn't write a single word, what if the manuscript cannot be handed in by the end of January?

Anyway, Teacher Miwu also said that the beast swarm this time is just a trivial matter, and will not have a big impact on Miwu Town, and they can afford to wait overnight.

"Don't rest! Late will make a difference, who knows where that guy will go again! I don't want to be tossed anymore!" Amy gritted her teeth and stood up. "Let's go now and go to Misty Town as fast as possible!"

She was really angry, irritated to the point of headache, and wanted to vent her emotions!

Today's second update is a little shorter, that's because the first one is a little more written, and overall the difference is not too big~

Volume 30: Chapter [-] Beast Tide

In the middle of the night, Misty Town.

Militia Captain Rumford woke up from his sleep and wiped his forehead with cold sweat.

He dreamed of Zane, his brother who grew up with him, his old friend who trained him in martial arts, the former militia captain of Misty Town, Kevin's father, and Mira's husband...

Zane is dead.

The cave where Zane fell was unfathomably deep, and the echo could not be heard for a long time when the stone was thrown down. Even if Zane was a gray-silver professional, there was no possibility of surviving the fall from that height.

Zane in the dream is questioning him:

Why didn't you dare draw your sword?Wasn't it you who came here to venture out and explore?

Why so weak?Can't you get up again after being hit by a monster?

Why don't you even have the courage to escape, but just stay in place and wait to die?

Why didn't you want to jump down to accompany me, and insisted on choosing to live on an ignoble existence? !

Rumford put his head in his hands and covered his head.

He is the culprit, and he is unforgivable.

He wasn't brave enough, let alone strong enough, and he dragged Zane down.

Why did Zane sacrifice his life to save him?

That man is obviously better than him in everything. He became a professional at a young age. He was the captain of a platinum-level mercenary regiment, traveled around the empire, and took over the burden of the militia after returning to town...

If Zane is alive, he must be a gold-level professional by now. Those mercenaries would not dare to mess around in the town, right?Mira will not be injured, Kevin will not venture into the depths of the forest to deal with the witch, and there is no need to ask outsiders to help with the tomb digging...

He doesn't need to be a militia captain either, as before, he just needs to follow Zane.

"Captain Rumford, something is wrong!"

Shouts from outside the window, the voice of a member of the militia, jolted Rumford awake.

He turned over and got off the bed, put on his coat in a few seconds, picked up the long sword beside the bed, and walked out quickly.

"What happened? Don't worry, speak slowly!"

Rumford grabbed the panicked militiaman, held his arm, and asked in a deep voice.

"It's a wave of beasts! Groups of wild beasts have come out of the foggy forest! They are in the bushes outside the gate!" The young militiaman was panting with horror on his face, "There are too many of them! We must not be able to fight them! Run away Bar!"

Rumford's forehead twitched, and the impact brought by the outbreak of the beast swarm made him feel a little scared. He froze for a few seconds, but the dream scene that had not completely dissipated brought him great courage.

He is the captain of the militia in Misty Town, and he must stand up at this time!

He has already let Zane down once, and he can't let Mira down again!

"What are you panicking about? Our town is close to the forest, and animal swarms are not uncommon! Isn't that the purpose of building such a high wall? Isn't the militia training hard and patrolling day and night for this kind of time?" Lunford shouted , "Go and inform the other team members to quickly gather at the entrance of the town, and I will go to the scene to see the situation!"

"Captain Rumford..." The young militiaman was stunned.

"This is our homeland. Human legs can't run like wild beasts. Don't shrink back at this time." Lunford said, "Go, act, just like you usually train!"

"Yes, captain!" The young militiaman saluted solemnly, and ran away quickly holding a torch.

The door of Kevin's house opened, and Mira walked out with a coat on, supported by the boy.

"Rumford, is there another beast horde?" Mira asked worriedly.

Renford nodded and comforted: "Don't worry too much, you go to the basement to hide first, and I will gather the team to guard the wall, and it will be better after dawn."

"Oh..." Mira sighed, "Have the two witches not come back yet?"

"They are witches, their whereabouts are uncertain, and they have no obligation to help us." Lunford said in a deep voice, "We can't rely on them, we have to rely on ourselves."

"Uncle Rumford, I want to help too. Is there anything I can do?" Kevin asked with his head raised.

Annie also ran out of the house, "Me too!"

Rumford looked at the two children. The boy is 11 years old and the girl is 13 years old. They may not know the danger of the beast tide, or it may be the unique reckless spirit of children, but they can stand up at this time. Coming out, Rumford was very relieved.

He didn't reprimand the two children, he saw in them what he lacked.

Rumford walked into the house, took down a gong and a whistle on a string from the wall behind the door, and handed them to Kevin and Anne respectively, "Are these things useful? Use them to wake everyone up and tell everyone There is a wave of beasts attacking! How do you call it? You two think for yourself, shout urgently, run faster, and remember to avoid danger. The first priority is to protect yourself. Rescuing people and driving away wild animals are the tasks of adults. Understand?"

Kevin took the gong, Annie took the whistle, and the two nodded vigorously.

Mira looked at the two children worriedly, "I'll be with you..."

"You're not in good health yet, and you can't run as fast as the children, and being with them will be a drag." Lunford looked at Mira, "Go to the basement, and I'll pick you up when it's safe."

Mira rubbed Kevin's and Annie's hair, feeling a thousand emotions, but all said in one sentence, "Be careful to protect yourself, don't be brave."

She looked at Rumford again. This man has changed a lot in the past two days. Maybe it was the changes brought about by the witches, or maybe he finally figured it out and walked out of that incident.

"Rumford, you must come back safely, I'll wait for you."

After saying this, Mira wiped her eyes, turned and went back to the room.

Kevin and Anne waved to Rumford and trotted away. Not long after, the sound of gongs and sharp whistles came from the night, mixed with the children's shouts:

"Beast horde attacks at night, everyone be careful!"

"Those who want to contribute, go to the town wall to help!"

Rumford took a deep breath and walked towards the entrance of the town.

They are children who grew up in Misty Town, this is a trial they must accept, just like us 30 years ago!

When Rumford came to the entrance of the town, several braziers had been lit on the wall, lighting up the nearby night sky.

More than a dozen militiamen were busy up and down, moving things towards the fence.

Arrows, logs, stones, small oil barrels, fire bombs...

These sharp weapons for defending the city were the wealth accumulated by the old man Jack when he became the captain of the militia, and the training method of the militia was also formulated by the old man.

Both Rumford and Zane were trained under the old man, and they brought out this generation of militia members.

Although the captain is not yet in place, the patrol team and the militiamen on duty have already moved in accordance with the usual training content, and they are orderly.

Rumford breathed a sigh of relief, clenched his fists, and said to himself in his heart:

This is not the first time Misty Town has dealt with the beast tide, and it won't be the last time, don't be nervous, you can do it, just like the old man Jernock once did!

"Captain, are you here?"

When Rumford climbed the wall, the militia members next to him greeted him, handed him a bunch of torches, and went on to move things.

Rumford nodded in response, looking into the distance by the firelight.

On the ramp space between the bushes and the fence, there were more than a dozen corpses of beasts lying sparsely. They were the vanguard of the beast tide. They were discovered by the night-duty militia team and shot dead in time.

Below the soil slope, in the depths of the jungle covered by night, there are dense and fuzzy animal shadows. They roar restlessly from time to time. The red animal eyes are particularly eye-catching in the night, but they do not rush out of the forest, as if they are waiting for the right time.

Mr. Jernock once said in his teaching notes that the real beast swarms would not give human towns a chance to react. They swept in like a mountain wind and a tsunami, leaving only ruins where they passed.

If such a group of beasts gathered but did not launch an attack immediately, it was probably because the wild beasts were not sure about breaking through the defense of the wall and were accumulating strength to prepare for a more violent attack.

Rumford couldn't count the exact number of shadows in the woods, but he wasn't alarmed.

The beasts are gathering strength, so why not the towns?Once there is time to prepare, the resilience of human beings will far exceed the expectations of these beasts!

"Rumford, what's the situation now? Do you need to ask the lord for help?"

While Rumford was observing the herd of animals in the bushes, an old man's voice came from behind him.

The speaker was Mayor Marco. He was over 60 years old and his hair was gray, but he was in good health and could climb the three-meter-high fence without much effort.

Lunford was silent for a few seconds, and then replied in a deep voice: "Let's call for help as a routine, no matter whether someone is sent over there or not, let's do our own thing first."

Marco glanced at Rumford in surprise, noticing the change in the militia captain, he also looked towards the bushes in the distance, and sighed: "This scene reminds me of the incident 30 years ago. The beast horde is very similar to tonight, Jack is standing in your position - you were a child back then, and now you are the captain of the team."

Rumford remained silent. Back then, Jernock was a gold-level professional, strong and confident, and the sense of security he brought to the townspeople was not comparable to that of a non-professional.

But glory is always in the past, but the times are moving forward. Zane died young, and Jack passed away not long ago. Someone must take this position.

"Captain, the team members are assembled!"

There was a report behind Rumford, and it was the young militiaman who had gone to inform him earlier.

He looked back and saw dozens of militiamen lined up in three rows. Some were fearful, some were excited, some looked solemn, and some pretended to be relaxed. The only thing in common was that they were all ready to fight.

Rumford was in a trance for a moment. If Zane was standing here, what would he say?

The scorching eyes of the militiamen brought Rumford back to his senses. He took a deep breath and shouted:

"Brothers, the homeland is behind us. We are the second wall to resist the beast tide tonight. We can also become the heroes in the stories of the younger generations!"

The old mayor, Marco, held up the torch and shouted loudly: "Defend the homeland and become a hero!"

Marco has been the mayor of the town for decades, has been conscientious and has great prestige in the town.

Seeing this scene, the militiamen immediately became emotional and shouted, "Defend the homeland and become a hero!"

Rumford nodded to the old mayor, thanking him for his help.

In this atmosphere, another voice came from behind the militia.

"Mayor Marco, this is a beast tide. Can these militia brothers who don't even have many professionals really be able to hold Misty Town?"

ps: The second update will arrive later, I have something to go out today~~

Volume 31: Chapter [-] Chaos and Determination

The speaker was a middle-aged man wearing a hat, with his hands behind his back and an unpleasant smirk on his face, he walked slowly out from behind the militia.

The man's name is Rose, and he is the sheriff of Misty Town appointed by the lord.
