In the early morning, a melodious eagle chirped over Violet Harbor, and it was the chirping of a gale eagle. Gale Hawks are a specialty of the Bloodrock Highlands, they are extremely enduring, and after domestication, they are mostly used for communication. A feathered gale eagle swooped down from the sky, swept over the city, and landed on the rooftop of the main building of Roger's Paradise.

Geralf reached out, allowing the Gale Eagle to rest on his wrist. Pulling out a note from the thin tube pinned to the eagle's leg, Geralf took out a piece of raw blood that was still bleeding and threw it into the sky, and the galehawk roared with joy and flew up to the sky to eat the raw meat, which was its reward.

Moments later, the note was delivered to Roger's desk.

After reading the contents of the note, a faint smile appeared on Roger's face. Geralf gave him a strange look, but didn't ask, knowing full well that his duty as a guard was not to get to the bottom of his master's business.

"Maude, that guy asked me for help." Roger crumpled the note and threw it into the trash can next to him: "He wants us to lend him the corps of the slave catchers." ”

Geraff was stunned, this had never happened before. Stormtown is also a pretty well-run city in the Borderlands, with Maud secretly funding Dick in the Bloodstone Wastes and teaming up with Roger in Port Violet. Almost single-handedly controls the interests of most of the border lands, and after many years of operation, the people of Storm City are strong. The two main forces of the Thunder Knights and the Tempest Infantry Regiment are basically about 1,000 soldiers serving all year round.

It's a huge military force, and it's a shock to bandits like Dick and slave dealers like Roger.

But now, Storm City is actually going to borrow troops from Roger?

"It seems that our friend is doing a good job, and I heard that Maud was planning to take down the city of Sur not long ago. Now it seems that it should have suffered a big loss, and it has also lost a lot of manpower. Otherwise, they won't borrow troops from me and prepare to fight back. ”

Geralf bowed his head and said, "Are we going to prepare?" ”

"No, just keep watching. Maude's appetite has been so great over the years that she has gradually forgotten that we are in a cooperative relationship. If that imp can take him out, it doesn't hurt to change partners. Roger thought for a moment and wrote a note to Geralf: "It took three days to send this message back." ”

"I see."

It was also early in the morning, and in the city of Sur, a strange smell was wafting from the courtyard of Alan's house. It smells a little faint, but it is mixed with other smells, so it becomes a strange smell. Everyone who smelled this strange smell subconsciously left the main hall, as if an ancient beast was lurking in the hall.

Alan frowned at the strange thing in front of him, looked up at Lucy and said, "Are you sure this is a cake?" ”

"How not?" Lucy crossed her waist and said, "I baked it myself early in the morning, using honey, egg yolks, flour and a variety of secret ingredients...... Cake! ”

Alan held out his finger suspiciously, lightly scraped a small shot at the completely shapeless, clay-like thing, and put it in his mouth to taste.

"How?" Lucy looked at him excitedly.

As if he had licked venom, Allen's face turned blue. The next moment I was already running to the toilet, and it didn't take long for the sound of vomiting to be heard.

Adele, who was looking at the poetry book next to her, shook her head and said, "If you don't have a talent for cooking, don't just make strange things to harm people." ”

"Is it that unpalatable?" Lucy tore off a small piece of it and threw it into her mouth.

Then there was one more person in the toilet.

It wasn't until he drank fresh milk that Alan felt his stomach gradually soothe. As for the "cake", which was comparable to poison, it had been thrown into the trash. Her Royal Highness, who was devastated, lay listlessly on the sofa, and after a while, she jumped up unwillingly and shouted: "Miss Ben can even make a third-level special bullet, how can she not get a piece of cake." ”

"Food and ammunition are two different things, okay." Adele has always been happy to hit Lucy.

"What's the difference between being made with a recipe?"

"Alright, Lucy. As for the cake, let's talk about it later. Alan put down his glass and said, "You said before that Storm City may have a vein of Thames silver?" ”

Lucy nodded and said, "On the silver coins they minted themselves, Xiao Qi found the composition of Thames silver, so it shouldn't be wrong." ”

"If this happens, then we can't let it go even more in Storm City." Adele closed the book of poems and said: "Tymes silver is a rare metal, which is needed for high-grade magic weapons, the inner wall of the main cannon of the magic energy starship, and the reactor stable dìng box of the Rubik's Cube perpetual furnace. There are currently no veins of this type of metal found on Earth, and we can only occasionally find and collect them from a colony star. If not, you will have to buy it from them at a high price. ”

She looked at Lucy.

Lucy spread her hands and said, "In fact, Adahuaxing's Thames silver production has been declining over the years. Even our royal reserves are enough for ourselves for at least a few hundred years. But that's not enough, after all, it's a necessity for cosmic warfare. ”

"Okay, I'll take a look at Storm City." Alan high-fived and said, "It's not okay to sit here and wait for Edward's activities, I have to do something." ”

"Then I'll go too." Adele stood up.

"No, you and Lucy stay. I'm not going to fight, it's better to be alone. Alan stood up and said, "Sue Edward, I'll leave for a few days." As for Mogu's ransom, leave it to him. ”

When Alan was about to walk out of the hall, Adele said lightly: "I think it's better for you not to trust him too much." The Malitan man, I always thought he had something else to offer. ”

Alan looked back and smiled, "Everyone has their own desires and what they want to get. Edward is no exception, as long as he doesn't do anything to hurt us. Then until then, I will believe him. ”

"If you can't even trust your partner, ...... like this" The next words were not spoken, and Alan just laughed twice and left the hall.

Changing into civilian clothes and carrying a knife case on his back, Eren left the city alone. He rode to the forest a kilometer away from the city of Sur, and Alan dismounted and shouted into the depths of the forest: "White, I'm back!" ”

The sound constantly echoed through the forest.

After two more calls, Alan rested under a tree. The horses graze quietly beside them, and after a while, the horses were at first uneasy. It looked up into the depths of the forest, kicking its hooves constantly. A rustling sound sounded in the forest, like the whispers of demons. A faint majesty permeated the forest, as if the whole forest was some kingdom that existed.

The war horse finally couldn't stand the fright, turned around and ran. Alan doesn't chase it either, the old horse knows the way, and it will return to Sur City.

Standing up, Alan noticed that all kinds of snakes kept coming out of his surroundings. The snakes stopped when they were seven or eight meters away from him, coiled up in a snake formation, and just looked at Alan quietly. It wasn't long before a huge shadow emerged from the trees, and the sheer weight of the body alone weighed heavily on it. The pressure was even greater when two bright yellow lights lit up in the shadows.

The nearby snakes all pressed their bodies to the ground for fear of offending the behemoth. Alan stared straight into the shadows that kept pouring in, and suddenly from behind a tree, Shiro's huge head emerged. It swam to Alan's side, stopped, lowered its head, and spat out the snake letter and licked it in Alan's face.

Alan patted it on the head and said, "Good guy, I haven't seen you for a while, you've grown again." ”

Shiro tilted his head and narrowed his eyes. He hissed a few more times at the snake group next to him, and the snake group immediately retreated, and this guy became more and more like a king snake.

After the snakes retreated, Shiro suddenly burrowed back into the forest. Not long after, he swam back and threw a black boar at Allen's feet, and the black pig trembled and did not dare to move. Shiro arched the boar with his head, then looked at Alan.

Alan couldn't cry or laugh: "White, I don't eat it." ”

Shiro looked at Allen, and then at the boar. With one mouth, he swallowed the boar whole. Alan shook his head and said, "I'm relieved to see you so energetic, Bai, I'm going to leave for a few days." I'll come back to see you later. ”

Waving goodbye, Alan turned. I didn't take a few steps, but I saw Bai swimming from behind. The big head arched and arched Alan to his head. Alan smiled: "I have something to do, stop playing, let me go." ”

Shiro shook his head and hissed a few times.

Alan seemed to understand what it meant, and tried to ask, "You want to go with me?" ”

Shiro nodded.

"Okay, but I can't let people see you." Alan patted it on the head and pointed in the direction of Storm City, "Go there." ”

The white snake raised its head and rushed forward. It swam at full speed, at incredible speed. Alan was careless and almost threw it off. Hurriedly caught Bai's single horn and stood on its big head. I saw that the trees on both sides were rapidly receding, and in a blink of an eye, I entered the suburbs. The yellow-brown rocks receded, and the oncoming wind blew Allen's hair upside down. Standing on Bai's head, seeing the vast wilderness on both sides, Allen suddenly felt that this world was so vast, and couldn't help but let out a clear roar.

The mood is so good.

In this way, Alan traveled with a king snake and reached the edge of Maud's territory in the evening of the next day. If you are riding a horse, you will not be able to reach it until tomorrow at the earliest, which shows how fast Shiro swims.

At this moment, the sun is setting. Alan and the king snake appeared on a high slope and looked down at the twilight. The town next down the hill is smoking, and it's time for dinner for every family. The town seemed peaceful, but the flag hanging from the bell tower with the Storm City logo doomed it to be peaceful.

This is a town belonging to Stormtown. R1058
