Don't call me evil god

The end of the Wine Festival is already at the end of October.

Weather, sleet and snow.

Maybe it's because it's close to the Frostfire Plateau. There's almost no concept of autumn near the stone castle, and winter is here all at once.

After several rains, the temperature dropped sharply and quickly headed towards subzero temperatures.

What fell in the sky was no longer rain, but sporadic snowflakes began to fall.

There was even a light snowfall the day before yesterday.

When the Golden Chao Breaker approached the stone castle, there was a layer of cold frost visible to the naked eye on the deck.

"Ah-ah-sneeze!"

Hugo Seavey sneezed loudly.

"Damn it! It was still autumn before we set off, but why did it suddenly become so cold!"

He wrapped himself tightly in the warm coat.

Looking from the air to the ground, the Lingyi Wetland in winter is becoming chilly and cold. The original greenery has disappeared and turned into a cold gray-white color, with not much breath of life visible.

The Lingwing Wetland in winter is not a friendly place for any life.

The cold climate intensifies the amount of energy required for any activity;

The ground will be covered with snow, which not only increases the difficulty of movement, but also obscures dangerous swamps and mire.

If you are not careful, you will fall in on the spot, and your body will not be discovered until the spring of next year, which has been frozen hard by ice and snow.

Food sources become scarce, plants die, some animals go into hibernation, and those that remain active become more aggressive in order to find enough food to survive the winter.

The dwarves hold the Wine Festival throughout October, not only for carnival and celebration, but also to prepare for the long winter that is coming soon.

The successive rounds of snowfall in winter will completely block land trade routes, which is equivalent to cutting off half of Shibao's foreign trade channels.

Stone Castle is located further north than the Kingdom of Reyak, so winter here will come earlier and last longer.

They need to stockpile enough supplies for the winter before the cold winter comes.

Keeping warm is probably the only thing dwarves don't have to worry about.

Relying on the endless heat provided by the magma lake in the mountain, the temperature inside the stone castle is always hot.

When the airship sailed into the stone castle from Edson's Wall, a wave of heat hit the face, which was in sharp contrast with the cold air outside.

There is rolling warmth in front of you, and a biting cold wind behind you.

Just like the earth-fire lava flowing in the open air on the vast snowfields of the Frostfire Plateau, the coldness of winter and the heat of the flames are constantly intertwined and conflicting.

The modified Golden Tide Breaker, at least in terms of stability, completely surpassed the various goblin airships produced by Greenport.

In the past, delays were the norm for goblin airships. No one knew what they would encounter when flying on high-altitude routes. In addition, they were docked at the dock for repairs and adjustments during transit. It was not surprising that they would be delayed by a few hours, or even a few days. possible.

With its strong and solid new frame, the Golden Chao Po Feng has not recorded any delays since it took off again.

It was expected to arrive within 5 days. The journey was uneventful and the ship docked at the airship dock in Shibao smoothly.

Peter, Lena, and other seekers of knowledge waiting to participate in the battle at the stone castle have been waiting at the dock for a long time.

They have not been idle these days.

With Bron Freeman as an internal agent, the preliminary preparations for the raid were in place.

A sufficient number of skull tokens.

One person per person, just waiting for the call at 7 o'clock in the morning to be teleported collectively to the place called the "realm of truth" by the messenger.

"If you don't have good weapons and equipment, follow me. This time someone is providing pretty good dwarf equipment for free! But we have to return it after the end. This is considered a temporary loan from others!" Peter shouted at the top of his lungs.

Bron Freeman is a native Stonecastle dwarf. He prefers the messengers of the Church of Supreme Truth to die quickly than the believers who seek knowledge. In order to achieve this goal, he has spent a lot of money.

Bronn has contributed to all the weapons and equipment built in the past few years!

As long as they participate in the battle, Bronn temporarily provides free weapons and suitable armor to the knowledge-seeking believers who participate in the battle. There is no need to compensate for damage during the battle. His only requirement is that they need to be returned after the battle.

Peter's unique dwarf-like appearance immediately attracted the attention of many believers seeking knowledge.

Goblin Hugo looked at Pet and Reina back and forth with his eyes shining brightly, and kept tutting in his mouth, which made Pet feel a little nervous.

"What are you tutting??"

Hugo smiled evilly: "That's no need to ask. In the past, when I looked at you, I had to raise my head and look up. Hahahaha, now we are the same height!"

Goblins and dwarves are relatively similar in height, with the latter slightly taller, but the difference is not significant.

Pet's face turned dark and he made an international friendly gesture:

"Archauke!"

"This is the price we have to pay to penetrate the enemy's interior."

"Who knew before we went that the cultist had such a weird ritual and could even reshape us into a dwarf body."

Pat had stayed in Stone Castle for a long time, and he had also learned the verbal curse words commonly used by dwarves.

Hugo exclaimed: "Is there any way to stop this ritual? What if that guy directly reshapes us into dwarves when we are under siege?"

"I don't want to turn into a stupid dwarf who only thinks about muscle building and drinking."

Pet explained relaxedly: "Don't worry, there is no need to worry about this issue."

"Bron Freeman has been a traitor for more than three years. He has already figured out the ritual."

"The cultist is just a user of the ritual. She is equivalent to a trigger, and the real reshaping and transformation is the altar of flesh and blood."

"The altar of flesh and blood needs time to slowly accumulate the power of the evil god."

"Its upper limit is to transform dozens of victims every month."

"In comparison, what we need to worry about more is the various warlock spells that guy has mastered."

"She is not an ordinary warlock, but a warlock who has been twisted by the power of the evil god!"

"The cultists are all the same. They all fantasize about being persecuted all day long and have no sense of security - although this is actually what they asked for."

"But in order to make up for the lack of security, she will definitely try every means to seize power and protect herself."

"That's the headquarters of the Supreme Truth Church in Stone Fort. She has been working in it for so long, and she must have prepared a large number of warlock arrays for emergencies."

Hugo laughed sinisterly after listening to Pete's introduction.

"Magic array?"

"Hey, I thought of it when I saw the information you shared. Spellcasters will set up various defensive measures in their homes in advance."

"Just wait and see! Under the guidance of the Lord, I made a good thing this time!"

"Specially for those who like to set up a lot of magic arrays at home!"

I was delayed by something. I just came back and am working hard on typing. Today's update should not be too late.
