Late at night, inside the Bada tribe's garrison.

Although it was early autumn, there were already two or three snowfalls on the glacier plains. In the howling wind, Roddy's team temporarily found a low slope to gather for heating. Because the temperature was too low, even in front of the bonfire, the soldiers were so cold that they stamped their feet. Fortunately, Roddy was well prepared, the thickened cloak and the specially purchased "cold-removing potions" were enough to ensure that the soldiers would not lose their combat effectiveness because of the low temperature.

Roddy did not enter the village immediately after arriving at the station. At this time, the team was temporarily resting here just to wait for the reply from the tribal leader.

The young Erwin had not yet had the power to enter the village with a team of 100 people. Roddy understood this, but he was also a little worried: everything in front of him was deviated from expectations, and whether his plan could continue seemed to be an unknown.

Wearing a heavy cloak, the snow was creaking by Roddy. He looked at the vague houses in the distance, and felt a little bored.

"The feeling of being uncontrollable... is really annoying."

Meanwhile, in the largest round stone house in Bada Village, Erwin was standing on the edge of the house with a frown, enduring the rebuke of the tribal leader in front of him...

"You broke into the snow monster's territory without authorization, and the team almost suffered losses for this. You have any reason to beat your subordinates? Have you heard what I said?

The middle-aged man named Avala shouted at Elvin, and his head was buzzing, but the young man was not convinced at all and replied with his neck in his arms: "The original hunting area can no longer find food. I have to go further to find you and ask me what to do?"

"Then what have you found? Well? I have the courage to answer in front of me when I return empty-handed?"

Avala's cheeks flushed because of anger, some because Elvin talked back, but more... but because the other party said it was right: the hunting area of ​​the Bada tribe has been gradually occupied by snow monsters, and hunting has become the norm. If this continues, even the best hunters will probably return empty-handed.

But neither of them thought they were wrong and just stood in a stalemate.

As a tribal leader, Avala's figure is comparable to Erwin, but at the age of fifty, he is gray in his hair. His biggest feature is the hideous scar on his face - his blind left eye is gray, and when he raises his eyes, he has a terrifying aura.

"I didn't bring back the food, but I brought back the team from the other side of the mountain. Their chiefs talked to me and were willing to help."

Erwin reached out and took out a scimitar that was placed behind his waist—"This is the weapon they used. The leader named Roddy said that if he used this weapon, it would be a breeze to kill the snow monster."

The barbarians can only use pig iron at the current level, and most of them are shoddy cooking utensils, and there is no craftsmanship to make metal swords. At this time, the weapons that Erwin took out were just the most common standard scimitars in the Karen Kingdom. However, as a natural warrior, Avala could see the power of this weapon at a glance...

He reached out to pick up the scimitar, and just waved it, the wooden chair next to him was divided into two halves with a "click" sound.

Ordinary people who have not been trained cannot do this at all, but the barbarians are natural warriors and can master the tricks of using scimitars in almost instant.

Looking at the broken wooden chair on the ground, Avara's remaining eyes narrowed... He raised the blade and looked carefully, and could hardly see the scimitar that collapsed was still exuding the cold breath.

The atmosphere in the room changed slightly. Avara's hand holding the scimitar trembled slightly, her eyes flashed, and she was determined to be there and was a little dazzled.

The young Erwin could guess what the tribal leader was thinking.

Ten years ago, Avala almost died in a battle with the snow monster - that time he and four companions encountered three snow monsters on the ice field. After a bloody battle, all of his companions were killed, and he relied on a stone axe to break out a bloody path...

That time, Avara had a cut in her abdomen and had a blind eye. When she walked outside the village, she fell directly into the snow due to excessive blood loss. Later, she survived with her tenacious vitality.

As a result, he received respect from everyone in the tribe and eventually became the leader of the Bada tribe.

But what puzzled Erwin was that...Avala was obviously famous in the battle with the snow monster, but since then, his attitude towards the snow monster seemed extremely "negative" - ​​when he became the leader of the tribe, he actually issued a dead order: If any hunter encounters the snow monster, he must choose to avoid it and keep his vitality with all his strength.

The barbarians have a hot temper, but it does not mean that they are all outlaws. Avala's starting point is not wrong: he wants his people to avoid casualties, and believes that only when the tribe's population increases can he have the capital to deal with the fierce snow monsters in the future.

So this order has been followed for ten years. Although the population of the Bada tribe has increased a lot, when facing the snow monster, no one will think of "head-on-head battle".

They were not afraid of the snow monsters, but when they hid, their inner thoughts gradually changed - warriors should never be afraid of fighting, because once "hiding" becomes a habit... the lost fighting spirit can not be rebuilt with just a few commands.

In the Bada tribe today, only young warriors like Elvin maintain the desire to challenge and kill the snow monsters. The old hunters who have been following the "rules" for ten years have long lost their blood to fight against the snow monsters.

Avala stood there thinking for a long time, holding the scimitar and observing it repeatedly several times. After nearly three minutes, he spoke and asked, "How many of them are there? What did they say?"

Erwin answered truthfully, but did not mention the incident of encountering the snow monster on the way. Avala thought for a while and snare the scimitar in her hand: "The leader named Roddy said he would give you this weapon?"

"No, he just said that if we were willing to give them the right rest area and food, they would be willing to use these weapons in exchange."

The young man did not notice a bright look in Avara's eyes and continued on his own: "The leader also said that he was carrying many similar weapons this time, enough to arm all the hunters in the tribe."

"You finally did a good thing."

Avala seemed to have lost her previous anger in an instant, and he patted Elson on the shoulder, "Go back and rest first."

"That...I don't have to go find them?"

"No, I'll just go and have someone notify them."

Elvin touched his head. He thought he would continue to argue, but the development of things seemed to be unexpectedly smooth. After thinking about it, there was nothing to say, so he turned his head and left.

When Avara was the only one left in the room, the barbarian leader lowered his head and stroked the blade of the scimitar with his fingers, and whispered to himself: "If all the food is provided to you...what will the Bada people eat?"

When midnight was approaching, Roddy finally waited for a reply.

However, the person who came was no longer the energetic Erwin, but an old soldier in his forties. The other party spoke in a muffled voice. After the two of them gestded for a long time, Roddy understood what the other party meant: "You mean, let's go to the valley on the other side of the village?"

"That's what the leader of Avara said, the village migrated from there before, leaving behind many houses that can keep warm."

This result was not unexpected. Roddy could not think of the reason for the other party to refuse, so after expressing his gratitude, he immediately asked Soderol to lead the team to move and try to arrive there as soon as possible.

Although the cloak was thicker and heavier, no one could withstand the temperature of minus 20 to 30 degrees Celsius for too long. Those thin tents were not as heat-insulated as the barbarian houses. Soderol understood this truth, but he still asked more: "Abandoned buildings? Is there no problem?"

"What's the difference in the snow? It's only less than four kilometers apart, and the soldiers are so cold that we can go there early and feel at ease."

Since Roddy had spoken, he stopped talking and turned around and started asking the soldiers to clean up the tent.

"Nata, don't forget to drink cold-removing medicine. Don't hold on in such an environment."

Seeing that her cold lips were a little purple, Roddy quickly handed over the potion bottle, then turned around and helped Akasha tie the hood tie: "It'll be fine if you hold on for a while, let's go as soon as possible."

"There won't be a snow monster over there, right?"

Akasha had a deep memory of what happened during the day, and she couldn't help but feel a little worried at this time.

"The snow monster will not approach the barbarian territory. Besides, our troops are still afraid of the snow monster?" Roddy was full of confidence in this.

[Two things: Today is the anniversary of the Nanjing Massacre. We have never experienced that history, but we all understand what that history means. Don’t forget the national humiliation and work hard to be strong. A strong country is not a slogan. Starting from oneself is the first priority. Fortunately, after graduation, the royalties deducted a lot of taxes to the country. Now I can be more arrogant.

Another thing is about my recent state. I have indeed felt "brain exhaustion" these days, and I always get distracted by writing, my memory begins to decline, and I even drive in the wrong way. For more than three years of writing, I feel like I can't do it for the first time. I have considered asking for a three to five-day holiday to relax in the past two days, because if I continue writing like this, I think this book will be ruined.
