Stormwind God
Chapter 666: St. Duke (on)
The Dark Portal In February of 3 years, the earth is still frozen, and all things have no sign of waking up.
This is the hardest time in winter. Winter is still there, but the food is almost eaten.
The bodies of frozen and starved people can be seen everywhere on the northern mainland of Lordaeron. Because the weather is too cold, there is no need to worry about the plague, but the hard ice has made all people abandon their plans to bury their companions or neighbors.
Lordaeron's aristocrats celebrated the victory of the war in a warm castle, while Ryan brought the little prince Varian to the territory to inspect the storm kingdom in the southernmost part of the mainland.
Yes, bracing the cold wind of minus five degrees and the slight snow.
Because there were still the orcs in the depths of Elwynn Forest, Lane had to travel with more than five hundred royal knights. Of course, there will be no shortage of paladins, priests, hunters, mages, and rangers of the Windrunner family.
Passing by in the cemetery outside the town of Shinjin, several frozen bodies jumped into the sight of Lane and Varian.
"What's going on?" Anduin, following Ryan's inspection, burned an unknown fire in his chest.
Don't need him to get angry, there is naturally a follower calling the mayor of Shejin who is scared.
"Sorry, Your Majesty, we don't know if you will come on tour."
"I don't know? May I give you enough time to hide the corpses?" The words of the sword in King Lane's words were even more majestic.
"It's not like that, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, please take a closer look. Most of them are old people." The town mayor who was so frightened was justified.
Ryan looked at it, indeed.
"They were in poor health until they returned to Elwynn Forest. Everyone advised them not to come back, but they said they would die in their hometown. After bumping on the boat for more than a week, we tried to take care of them as much as possible. According to His Excellency Markus, we have always arranged them near the doctor or priest. Unfortunately, they have not been able to survive. "
The mayor's excuse made Ryan and others silent.
Hometown, this has a special sacred meaning for every national of the Storm Kingdom.
Since the founding of the kingdom, thousands of years have passed, and many people have never left their homeland throughout their lives. During the days when the Storm Kingdom fell, even Ryan himself had painfully wondered countless times whether he would have a chance to return to the land of Storm Kingdom for decades.
In the days of the fall, perhaps he and his people returned to the country with enthusiasm. What if he was killed, and then all the warriors who reunited with the country were killed? What if it has not been revived for five or ten years? At that time, how many people are willing to support the restoration of the Storm Kingdom?
The citizens, especially the elderly citizens, are eager to return to their hometown. Ryan, Anduin, and even the young Varian can understand it.
Ryan sighed. In the winter weather, this sigh formed an ice mist, which is extremely clear: "Mr. Mayor, I accept your explanation, but now please take us to the place where the civilians gather. I want to use me To see the fruits of your work and your loyalty to the kingdom and people. "
"Of course! Of course!" The mayor wiped the sweat beads that had started to condense on his face, and hurriedly took Lane to the town.
As Shanjin Town used to be the base of the Horde's attack on Stormwind City, it was burned by Duke. Although more than a year has passed, many trees still look bare, either dead or not yet returning.
In the somewhat deserted town, Lane was relieved to see many human-style houses standing on the town. A year and a half ago, the same location was full of tribal nasty and messy tents.
"Father, there are so many houses here," Prince Varian shouted in surprise.
Ryan was also very surprised. As king, he only saw a report from Duke saying how many houses were built. With regard to the internal report, Lane has always examined it with a light eye. In Lane's impression, one tenth of the house can be built, and other people can have a strong tent.
It now seems that Duke's report is completely real and true, without any water!
"Thanks to Duke Marcus' new building manual, we were able to build a winter house for each town dweller before the advent of winter, a total of 1,120 homes. As long as there is a man in the family, even if it is not built The house, under the command of a craftsman, can build a solid house with five or six people in one month. "
Ryan, Anduin, and Varian were all taken aback.
They know nothing about building a house, but they have seen how carpenters and masons built houses before. There is no half-year in which a house cannot be determined.
What efficiency is this now?
The mayor first brought the king and his party to the warehouse
I saw a lot of wood neatly stacked in the warehouse, and Lane noticed that there were grooves on each end of the wood: "This is ..."
The mayor: "Uh, I don't understand the specifics. Mr. Cliff Cliff of the Mason Brothers explained a lot to me at that time. What they said is that as long as the posts and beams marked with the designated number are placed on the designated location on the flat ground, It can be overlapped directly, and nails can be used to make the frame of the house, and the house will not be scattered casually. Then cover the double-layer wooden boards prepared in advance, and a house is basically completed. "
"That's it?" Anduin was surprised.
"Uh, there is no way to use a stove for heating. This one can only be set up by women who are more free."
"Take me to see." Lane ordered.
Without going too far, a large group of people came to a civilian home on the edge of the town. Knocking on the door of the homeowner, the farmer welcomed the king and his party in amazement.
"No need to kneel, just stand and talk."
In this age of rigorous levels, civilians seeing the king without having to kneel is already a great gift. They wouldn't dare to kill them, too.
"Thank Your Majesty," the man said with his wife and three and a half children.
"Are you a soldier on vacation?" Anduin noticed the master's necklace. There is a rectangular sign on the necklace. This is the idea proposed by Duke-military card. The soldier's name was marked with the soldier's name, place of origin, affiliation, and merit.
The man immediately stood upright, in a standard military posture: "Joseph Adams, the fifth captain of the third battalion of the fifth infantry regiment of the Kingdom, salutes you, His Excellency Commander Lothar.
"How's your winter going?" Lane asked with a smile.
"Thank you St. Duke, we are doing well." Almost immediately, Joseph's face was discolored.
"St. Duke?" (To be continued.)
