In the afternoon, the refugees of Riverdale were all armed.

Although their combat effectiveness is very poor, but fortunately, they are all angry, coupled with the superiority in numbers and equipment, so this temporarily pulled up force is okay on the whole.

King Thrandell sent a leader of the Elven Guards to temporarily guide the militia in their drills.

The head of the elven guards taught very seriously, and the militia practiced very seriously.

After all, it's a matter of life and death on the battlefield, and they have to get serious.

Bard's son, Barn, was also among them, and he practiced well with everyone.

When Bard passed by the group of militiamen, he recognized his son in armor at a glance, and he immediately frowned and shouted, "Barn, come out!" ”

Barn took off his helmet, wiped the sweat oozing from his forehead, and said excitedly, "Dad, did you see my performance just now?" The elf instructor said I was very talented! Do you know? Very talented! ”

Bud asked in a deep voice, "How old are you this year?" ”

Barn smiled, "Dad, why are you confused?" I'm fifteen years old! ”

Barne's face is still childish, but in terms of size, he is already about to catch up with Bud, and his strength is not small, and he may rarely meet opponents among his peers.

In this regard, Bard is actually very relieved in his heart, and any father hopes that his son will one day surpass himself and can shoulder the burden of protecting the family and protecting his sisters and sisters.

However, not now.

Bard asked with a cold face, "Did I say that only men over the age of 18 who are in good health can participate in this crusade?" ”

Barn laughed, "You said it, but I'm your son!" I want to fight with you! ”

Bard said angrily, "Nonsense! You fight side by side with me, who will protect your sister and sister? ”

Barn opened his mouth, "They...... They can protect themselves, and I've found them two swords. ”

"You!" Bud raised his hand in annoyance, eager to slap Barn to the ground.

Barn hurriedly shrunk his neck, although he was afraid of being beaten, he did not dare to dodge.

At this time, Hammer came over and said, "Bud, don't hit him, he also has good intentions, boys, they all want to make a contribution." ”

Bard sighed helplessly, and said in a serious tone: "Barn, I understand your feelings, believe me, I also came from your age, when I was still your age, I used to think every day why I didn't fight, how can I show my personal strength if I don't fight?" However, when I started my family, I realized how proud and wild I was when I was young, and that war can cause unimaginable trauma, and that our homes, our families, everything we know will be destroyed by war. You are still young, you have to remember that your first responsibility now is to live and protect your sister and sister at the same time, understand? ”

Barn nodded as if he didn't understand, "Understood......"

Bud waved his hand, "Go ahead." ”

"Yes." Barne ran away in a puff of smoke.

Iron Hammer laughed and said, "Barn, this kid is also a dragon slayer, and you reprimand him like this, it's too shameful for him." ”

Bud smiled wryly, "I want him to live, not just have such an unimportant face." ”

Iron Hammer nodded and said, "That's the same, it can be seen that you, who are a father, are still very qualified." ”

Bud smiled helplessly, "I know I'm far behind...... Oh yes, Lady Hammer, commissioned your rebuilt siege engine? ”

Iron Hammer smiled: "I would have done such a simple thing a long time ago." ”

"Good! That's good! Bard breathed a sigh of relief, "With those two siege engines, the main gate of Lonely Mountain will be easy to break through." Alas, just the thought that we have to get our share of wealth in this way does not feel good in my heart, I don't want to fight, but if we don't, our refugees will starve to death and freeze to death. I don't know when Diedi-sama will be able to return. ”

As he spoke, an embarrassed, filthy and filthy gray-robed old man stumbled into Riverdale Town.

As soon as he entered Riverdale, he immediately sat down on the ground and said hoarsely, "Water, bring me some water!" ”

Some refugees around hurriedly took out a kettle and prepared to pour water for the old man.

"No way!" Alfred walked out with a swaggering stride, snatched the kettle away, and glared at the refugee who wanted to share the kettle with a vicious look, "Do you know that these are extraordinary times?" Are any resources publicly owned? You don't have the right to give everyone's water to a beggar to drink! ”

After saying that, Alfred screwed the kettle and said coldly to the gray-robed old man who was sitting on the ground: "Hey, you, we don't welcome idle beggars here!" Where did you come from, and where did you go back! ”

The old man glanced at Alfred, "It's a lot of work to get me back to the Demon Capital." ”

Alfred said arrogantly: "I don't care, you go quickly, you are so old, you may die at any time, we don't want to take care of people like you." ”

The old man frowned and said, "So, you are the person in charge here?" ”

Alfred sneered, "I'm the assistant to the person in charge!" ”

The old man sneered: "Looking at you like this, the king of the river valley may not be much better." ”

Alfred said angrily, "How dare you—"

As soon as he raised his hand, the old man raised his hand and pointed at it, and a flame burned in his body.

Alfred was taken aback, "Someone! Come and put out the fire! ”

He unscrewed the kettle and was about to pour fire on himself, but Barn happened to be passing by here, and hurriedly rushed up to grab the kettle, and said in his previous tone: "Do you know that this is an extraordinary time? Are any resources publicly owned? You don't have the right to pour everyone's water on you alone! Come on, let's step on the fire with our feet! ”

"Huh? Other! Alfred exclaimed quickly.

A dozen half-sized sons like Barn immediately rushed forward, punching and kicking Alfred as he was on fire.

By the time the fight had been blown, the fire on Alfred's body had been extinguished—it wasn't big.

As soon as the children scattered, Alfred got up in a miserable manner and yelled, "I remember you!" I remember each and every one of you. ”

"Gandalf!"

Iron Hammer They rushed over when they heard the voice, and as soon as they saw the gray-robed old man, Iron Hammer immediately cried out in surprise.

But then, Hammer's face changed, "Wait! You're back, then he's-"

Gandalf hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Diedy is fine, we'll be back together, but he went to survey the terrain first." ”

The hammer breathed a sigh of relief and said angrily, "Damn! Don't come back and say hello first! Snow Emperor! Isn't that guy hateful! ”

The Snow Emperor on the side smiled faintly: "It's okay, I already knew about it." ”
