A strange world

Chapter 178 Chapter 32. It’s what you protect

"Uncle Huolin, take a rest."

Annan came to Uncle Hollin and Martin.

Uncle Huolin put down the pickaxe and said proudly that it was nothing. Even Aunt Susan could do so much. Annan expressed surprise—surprise that Aunt Susan was still so thin.

"Hahaha, you don't think Susan has always been in such good shape? She used to be as thin as me..."

Uncle Hollin laughed and slapped the lazy Martin on the back of the head.

On January 1st of the Saint Laurent calendar, at one o'clock in the afternoon, Annan, who had recovered his magic power, released a low-level summoning spell.

The portal opened, and Annan saw the ogre and the workers crowded behind it. Some glanced at the ogre uneasily, some were curious about the other side of the portal, and some stared at Annan enthusiastically - without even thinking about it, they knew they were fans of "The Fall of the Mage Tower".

In addition to the workers, there are also the guard captain and 100 soldiers seen in the dungeon. "The Lord of the City asked me to tell you that there are 1,500 workers here, and there will be 1,500 more workers later, and the 15th City Guards Team will listen to Your command."

"Can you work?"

The guard captain was stunned for a moment and smiled: "Of course, I was a farmer before joining the city guard."

Olmedo did not skimp on aid, these were strong workers.

Annan looked at these strong men who consciously entered the mining area and salivated. It’s best to increase the amount of meat in your food these days, and then pay your salary...

An hour later, the last group of workers arrived, and Annan, who had drank all he could of the magic potion, walked back to Xingyue Bay along the gray stones stretching in the forest.

The women were reclaiming the frozen soil foundation. Annan found Aunt Susan and asked her if she wanted to rest.

"This is nothing. When I carried your Uncle Huolin behind my back to fight the lizard people, it lasted longer than this."

Annan said nothing. Appropriate silence is an important factor in maintaining family harmony.

Eli Rubble has drawn up the city wall - a hundreds of meters long arc-shaped wall surrounding the bay. The arc shape allows the snow tides to crowd each other and release from the sea and forests on both sides, and it meets the requirements of the lord - Annan can tolerate Xingyue Bay being destroyed by the snow tide because the city wall is not strong enough, but cannot tolerate Xingyue Bay having an imperfect circular city wall.

The city wall is planned to be five feet wide and fifteen feet high, which is about two meters wide and five meters high, and then wrapped in ice water, so as to withstand the slow but unwavering snow tide.

Under Francois and Ingrid's arrangement, no one went hungry or froze, and the elements of earth and water built mud huts and igloos for them to rest. It's just that the residents refused the wages due to the workers' confusion - rather than dozens of copper coins, they hoped to be rewarded for "contribution" this time.

Annan agreed to them and announced that the top ten residents and top ten workers who mined the most stones could own townhouses.

The already hard-working leaders became even more enthusiastic, driving the workers to work hard as well.

Francois was wandering in the quarry. A baron was busy working for Xingyue Bay and was in a miserable state. As for the reason... maybe it was Lorna who made him realize that he could abandon the past and start a new life in Xingyue Bay.

Tell the family about Xingyue Bay through Fire Crow. Osulund Territory is a little far away from the Snow Mountains, so it should not encounter snow waves.

The mist that shrouded the snow-capped mountains has faded, and many mountains that are not covered by snow make the snow-capped mountains much colder. However, as long as there are a few snowstorms, they will turn into snow-capped mountains again.

Then later the next day, Olmedo came with bad news:

"We found the shadow of the Frost Giant wizard in the snow tide."

This means that the snow tide that is still spreading is driven by the frost giants... They should want to expand the range of the group, but Breeze City will not agree.

"Xingyue Bay will not agree."

"good."

Olmedo smiled softly, like a powerful female knight and replied, "I also want to protect the little boy in the world with you."

The snow tide was driven by the Frost Giants. When they were still hundreds of miles away, the city wall began to be poured. Annan handed over the wasteful mixing and pouring to the earth element. Concrete is also earth anyway, and then dealt with the frozen glacial river——

Standing by the glacier river, Annan activated the amulet given by the tower spirit and summoned the epic mage.

"Please help me melt these rivers."

"That's why you seek help from an epic?"

"Xingyue Bay is facing annihilation." Annan begged, "Help me, Mr. Swaro."

Swaro agreed with a cold face, because his daughter really liked "The Fall of the Mage Tower", and Annan gave him and his daughter gifts a few days ago. Damn it...why does a King in the North look like a bartender in a tavern?

The epic mage released fire magic, and the dazzling and blazing flames made the people busy beside the city wall couldn't help but look at it.

The hundreds of meters long glacial river that turned into a gurgling stream quickly dried up. Swaro snorted: "I hope the next call will not be such a trivial matter."

The city wall is gradually taking shape, and the snow tide is getting closer. After Annan had enough stone, he withdrew all the workers, set up an iron pot under the city wall, melted the river ice and poured it on top.

The knights sent to investigate confirmed Olmedo's statement that the looming Frost Giant in the snow tide was the murderer of the snow tide that stretched for hundreds of miles.

The good news is that the wave of snow that engulfed the forest was less than four meters. Even if it reaches the city wall, the impact will be limited.

Finally, in the morning when the snow wave was only a few dozen miles away from Xingyue Bay, a solid city wall wrapped in solid ice was completely formed.

Annan, who had been awake all night, and everyone stepped up to the city wall and looked into the depths of the forest.

It was like the crisp sound of a squirrel peeling off pine cones, which changed from vague to clear, and turned into the crunch of a tree falling.

Thousands of trees fell down, and Annan thought that if he knew the Druid's contact information, he would file a complaint.

A slow but unwavering wave of snow appeared on the other side of the glacier river - those trees wrapped in snow and invincible fell into the river, filled the river, and continued to surge towards the city wall - but there were not many trees left.

The ice shell of the city wall made a dull collision sound, and the snow piled up, but before it covered the city wall, it circled to both sides along the smooth surface of the curved city wall——

But snow tide is not the key. Annan stared at the looming Frost Giants deep in the snow tide, and they were also staring at him.

The large water elemental and large earth elemental standing on the city wall frightened the frost giant wizard hiding in the snow. It's not the elementals themselves that are to be feared, but the master caster or epic spellcaster who summons them.

"Eternal elements..."

After a stalemate for more than ten minutes, the Frost Giant wizard muttered vague giant language and retreated into the snow with his tribe.

The slowly moving snow tide also gradually became stationary, and Xingyue Bay fell into silence.

"We guarded Xingyue Bay!"

Big Big, one of the four scavengers, said loudly.

The cheers of the residents, workers and soldiers echoed over Xingyue Bay.

"you made it."

Francois said. Although his body was extremely tired, his heart was extremely full.

"We succeeded." Annan said with a smile.

Francois was stunned, and suddenly lowered his head and wiped his eyes: "Yes, we succeeded."
