MTL - Release that Witch-Chapter 8 Evil moon (on)

If you want to develop well, you must take root here. If the land is not good, the wasteland can be reclaimed. If the territory is too small, it can expand outwards, but people are empty talk.

If a territory may be abandoned at any time, then who is willing to buy a home here, who is willing to produce with peace of mind?

After the assistant of the minister retired, Roland called Carter Lannis, his chief knight.

"Take your people, find me some local guards, hunters or farmers. They have to stay here for more than five years and have experienced the demon moon. If someone has fought with the evil beast."

When the Cavaliers took the lead, Roland licked his forehead and continued to look at the aggregated information.

The main output of Bianbu Town is mineral and animal fur. The bulk import item is grain. All transportation is through Zhishui River to Changge Fortress or Liuye Town. There are various types of ore in the minerals, iron, copper, sulfur, crystal, ruby, sapphire... This has completely surpassed the concept of associated minerals. He also remembered that Anna once said that the North Slope mining area was reportedly used to be the nest of unknown monsters in the underground. Until now, it has not fully proved the number of ramps at the bottom of the mine.

Turning to the food one, Roland frowned. Most of these ore were sold to the long song fortress, but the other party did not pay with the kingdom Jinlong, but used grain to offset the price. It is reasonable to say that gems and the like can also be regarded as luxury goods. In a few years of trading, there is neither much grain left in the town and the fiscal revenue.

In other words, the output of the mining industry in Bianbu Town only exchanged rations of 2,000 residents for one year. Considering that before the prince airborne, the lord of this place was a person who was a singer of the long song, and it was understandable that it was produced and sold. Anyway, they seem to have saved more food in this place than the monsters.

The fur trade belongs to the local people's own input. They go west into the lost forest, hunt some birds and beasts, or sell them to the long-song fortress, or sell them to the residents of Liuye Town. Bianyi Town did not set a tax on this transaction because there was no supervision at all.

Roland thought about it. Since he came, the ore output could no longer be used to offset the price. The branch of the Chishui River runs through the entire kingdom, and traffic is not occluded. With this transport artery, even if the long song fortress no longer provides food, he can also buy it from other places.

The premise is that he can be here, in the town of Bentham, to block the **** monsters.

Carter’s movements were very fast. Two guards and a local hunter were found the next day. “These two are the patrol captains of Bianyan Town. Every year the bonfire is responsible for their release. This hunter said he and the evil beast* After handing over, I also cut the head of a wicked beast."

The three men bowed together.

Roland nodded and let them go back to the side, one by one.

"Respect... Dear Prince's Hall... Your Highness," the first guard who was called up was so nervous that he couldn't tell. "I and Brian are both... people here, uh... when it snows, We...we will go to the North Slope mining area...the beacon tower. There can be...the first time to see the movement of the monsters, if they are more and more fascinated...the forest, we will point...ignite the bonfire, From a small...the road was withdrawn, and the fast boat prepared before boarding left...."

"Since it's all together, ask your partner to answer it," Roland shook his head and shook his head. "What do the evil beasts look like, can they be killed?"

The other guard was very nervous, but at least he did not stutter. "His Royal Highness, it should be possible. They were originally ordinary animals in the forest. Although they were infected by hell, they became arrogant and violent, but they can still be killed. Every year after the Demon Moon, the Long Song Fortress will send a cavalry team to clean up the remains of the fortress on the land road in Bianbu Town."

"How long will the demon moon last?"

"It usually takes two to three months...it depends on the sun," Brian said.

"Look at the sun?" Roland wondered.

"Yes," the guard explained. "Your Highness has just arrived here, so I don't know. Once the town is in the snow, it will not stop until the sun returns to its glory and the snow will be gone."

"Will it be the end of the demon season until snowing?" Roland recalled, at least the snow in the gray fort was not like this, basically the next day, and the sun did not change.

"This is the case. The longest demon month I have experienced is two years ago, and it lasted for nearly four months. Many people can't support it."

"Why, is there a grain reserve for a long song fortress for more than a month?" Roland asked.

Brian's face became a little bad. "They have it. But the municipal official Ferrer, who was responsible for the supply at the time, said that the ore produced in the fall is only enough to buy three months of grain, and the fourth month is waiting for a new batch of ore. Only when it is time can it be issued. But the month of the demon has not passed, we can not leave the fortress."

"It turned out to be... I know."

It is simply an idiot from the people. If the long song fortress treats the gang of people like the spring breeze, it is not easy to leave them behind, but now it seems that the guys who are behind the wall are not good things. Roland nodded the last person to answer the question, but he remembered the name in his heart.

The third person was so powerful that he was close to six feet when standing straight, which made Roland feel very stressed. Fortunately, he stepped on his knees as soon as he stepped forward.

"You said you killed the evil beast?"

"Yes, Your Royal Highness," his voice was low and hoarse. "A wild boar, a wolf."

""Growing"? Roland repeated. "What do you mean?" ”

"This is the Orion's name for the evil beast, His Royal Highness. The more ferocious animals before the mutation, the more difficult it is to mutate. And they will multiply the original advantage of the body. Like the wild boar, its back fur is extremely hard. It is difficult to penetrate even the sacral bow 50 meters away. The wolf species are even more awkward and the running speed is amazing. To kill it, you need to set the trap in advance."

“Strongly stronger, faster and faster,” Roland nodded. “But it’s still an animal.”

"That's it, they are not the most terrible enemy," Orion said, swallowing his mouth. "The most terrible thing is mixed species."

"They are the incarnation of the devil. Only **** can create such a horrible monster. I have seen a hybrid species that not only has a strong limb like a beast, but also has a pair of huge wings behind it, which can fly short distances. And it knows where I am, no matter how I hide, it can pull me out. It is not preying, Your Highness, it is just teasing prey.” The Orion picked up his clothes and saw a huge scar from The abdomen extends to the chest. "I jumped into the Chishui River before I was in a coma before I survived."

"There are still such monsters," Roland felt that the world is becoming more and more fantastic. A solid wall can block all common species of evil beasts, but what about flying? "Mixed species should be rare?"
