Chapter 8: Return to Civilization

Looking at the starry sky from afar, the stars are shining, and it looks like a person has accidentally knocked off the bead disc next to him, and one of the shining beads has landed on it.

As a bookworm who dabbles in all kinds of books, Raphael is also involved in books on horoscopes, and Raphael has been a teammate with an astrology witch for a period of time, so he has some understanding of the changes in constellations, what they represent, and their symbolic meanings.

"The power of the stars grows stronger and weaker with the change of months!" These are the words that the astrological witch had said to herself. So even if the stars in the sky are shining, there are always some stars that will shine brighter, looking at the constellations one by one.

"The Leo sign shines the most, and it should be between July and August. According to Little Red Horse's description, the time should not have passed too long, which proves that the time I left should be between one and two months, which is fine. It would be miserable if a few years passed, but it was really earned! And I haven't grown in age with the time I've spent in the Dickie Arcane Empire. "This last point is discovered through the examination of mental power.

The pot began to rattle, bubbles began to gush out, Raphael hurriedly walked back, lifted the lid, and a fragrance came to his face, although it was not as good as those chefs' works, but at the moment too much consumption, even the most unpalatable things will feel delicious! Not to mention, Raphael's pot chowder does taste really good!

He took out a small bucket from the storage ring, poured the food in the pot into it, and put it in front of the little red horse, who was not afraid of being hot, and ate it very slippery. Raphael also filled himself a bowl and ate it slowly, he was not as good as the little red horse, if he let himself swallow it like this, his mouth would definitely blister.

……

A few days later, a man and a rider appeared on a path, wearing a gray-black robe, the robe was a little wide, covering his face, but from his exposed arms it could be seen that this should be a very young fellow, a red horse under his crotch is very tall, this person is Raphael and the little red horse, the little red horse restrained the flames on his body, and it looked not much different from a good horse.

Raphael recuperated the injuries in his body through a few days of cultivation, and for an alchemist apothecary, recovering from injuries was not a very difficult thing to do. As long as they have the materials at hand, they have hundreds of ways to recover. However, although the injuries on his body are much better, the magic power in his body has not been completely repaired, but it will no longer affect the normal casting, and his strength has also recovered to a fourth-order magician, at least when he encounters the black-veined snow wolf, Raphael can completely beat it!

"Most of the Northland is still too inhospitable, and it would be unimaginable if it could be fully developed! But these astrological witches have done a good job, and without them, the lives of these inhabitants of the Northland would be even more miserable! "The scenery Raphael has seen in the past few days is snow and trees, to be honest, if it weren't for the good tolerance of his heart, in this environment, an ordinary person could be driven crazy!

"Tuk Tuk~"

"Tuk Tuk~"

At that time, the intermittent sound of logging came from a distance, and this sound came to the ears of both men and horses, and there was an uplifting feeling, a feeling of returning to the civilized world, and a stick was used to pick the branch in front of him, and a babbling stream appeared in front of Raphael, and the sound of logging spread over the river. This somewhat scattered monotonous sound is mixed with the sound of gurgling water, which has a unique charm!

The river has been around for a long time, you can tell by the thick moss on the rocks at the water's edge, there seem to be at least twenty families on the other side of the river, this size is just a small village in the interior, but in the north enough to be called a small town!

Raphael looked out over the village, which was surrounded by walls.

It is the kind of wall made of solid wood in plural form, this wood is taken from the cold hardwood of the Northland, and as its name suggests, it is a very strong wood, this wood is not suitable for fire, but it is very suitable for a solid defensive line, and some Northland warriors will even use it to make shields!

A piece of cold hardwood is at least forty centimeters thick, and it seems that the inhabitants of this place have put a lot of thought into this defensive line, which is usually sharpened at both ends and driven into the ground, and there are two watchtowers around the wooden wall, which can be climbed with ladders from below. The town has a wooden gate on the north and a wooden gate on the south, both of which are very thick gates, making the small village look less like a place for the inhabitants and more like a fortified city.

However, in addition to the city established by the astrological witch, this kind of self-built village outside may encounter the attack of demonic beasts or fierce beasts, if there is no means of defense, then maybe when the morning light shines on the earth again, the smell of blood will spread in this small village!

However, there is usually a town in the vicinity of such a town, and there is usually an astrological witch sitting in one of them. The Astrological Witch does not exclude the Northlanders from entering the city and is willing to provide some protection, but you also have to have the value of being protected, and you need to create wealth for others so that you are qualified to be protected.

In the Northland, there is no such thing as a person who eats and waits for death, because your slack will make it impossible for you to survive in this environment, because it may just be your laziness today, and you will not have a warm bed to sleep in at night! Their bed is somewhat similar to a kang, but it's much safer, and if you put wood in it, it will burn and the gas will be stored as heat!

This is the architectural style designed by the astrological witch, even ordinary people can build, it can be said that the appearance of the astrological witch has indeed made the inhabitants of the Northland live a better quality of life, it is no wonder why in the Northland, the identity of the astrological witch is supreme, if you dare to say bad things about the astrological witch in the north, then I dare to guarantee that the inhabitants of the northland will tell you the consequences of doing such a thing!

"Bang Bang Bang~" The soldiers patrolling above the watchtower swept their eyes to Raphael's body and shook the rattle around him quickly!
