Release that Witch Chapter 372: Leisure


A week later, Border Town ushered in the last month of autumn in a heavy snowfall.

Roland looks out from the office window. Black silhouettes are shaking on the snow-white roof. This is a must-do for the townspeople every day. It removes the snow from the roof to avoid crushing the roof.

To this day, he has been in the world for just over a year, but the autumn of the previous year was far less cold, and so many neat and dense houses could not be seen from here.

It's not surprising that the town said it was an abandoned area that was about to be abandoned. Aside from a circle of wooden houses that looked like a decent shape around the square, all the mud and thatched houses were broken. Most of noble's residences are concentrated in the square area. The only stone slab road leads from there to the castle. In addition, the entire small town can no longer see a flat ground, and there are human and animal excrements everywhere.

Now the roads are all replaced with water-stable pavement. Even if there is no covering layer, it is also a hard road with excellent quality. The dark lines divide the silver-white small town into many squares of different sizes. On both sides are the business districts planned for the future, and the periphery is residential quarters.

In addition, Border Town's industry has gradually begun to take shape, or in other words, it has finally changed from workshop-type production to a self-circulating production line. Of course, it is limited to steam engine. The blast furnace area can produce iron ingots that meet the processing requirements, while the steam plant can process them into parts. Blacksmiths are no longer unfamiliar with various types of machine tool, and have brought a large number of apprentices. Although those high-precision steam engine beds rely on Anna manufacturing, they are considered extremely rare advances. After all, before this, these people only touched the blacksmith hammer, or they were simply miners or hunters.

Let's think it is produced by workers relying on their own strength.

Apart from the production of bullets and gunpowder, all are also arranged by ordinary people. Firearms still need Anna hands-on, the reason is not the lack of processing machine tool, but because the small town blast furnace can not produce stable quality steel, this has been included in the next stage of Roland urgent problems.

Achievements in the chemical industry are much more surprising, probably because they didn't have much hope, so any achievement is unexpected. Now that mass production of sulfuric acid and nitric acid has begun, and chemical explosives are also gaining traction, as long as the output of bullets can be raised, it is not difficult to replace the new-generation bursting gun.

It doesn't matter if the production method is backward. For the current situation of small town, it is more important to solve the problem. After the ability of White Paper stabilizes and it can precisely control its own magic power, maybe the chemical industry will usher in a new peak.

The most important thing is that no matter which production it is, or education and construction, Border Town is now in a healthy development stage. As long as there is enough time, the educated population will increase, and breakthroughs in various fields will become faster and faster.

It took a year to transform a barren land into what it is today, and he exuded a sense of accomplishment from bottom of heart.

Standing by the window and looking at this small town, Roland feels that it can look all day long.

At this moment, the West north heard a melodious bell sound sound.

That was a warning of the Evil Beast attack.

After the arrival of Months of Demons, the alarm will sound once every three to four days. However, First Army is already familiar with this situation. It is no longer necessary for Roland to go to the city wall to supervise the battle. Thinking of a year ago, if they did not appear in the field of view of the militia team, it is difficult to guarantee that they would not leave weapon and flee.

"Evil Beast is here again, let me go and see?" The voice of Nightingale came from the ear.

"Yeah," Roland nodded, "Pay attention to safety."

"Don't worry, they can't touch me."

Then he felt a slight warmth on his cheeks, and his voice disappeared.

Roland shook his head helplessly. Probably on such a snowy day, witches was also suffocated, saying that it was to observe the situation, in fact to find something to do. Especially a few combat type witch brought by Tilly. At this time, they will always go to the city wall for the first time to watch the battle. Those who can rush to the wall Evil Beast Hybrid(s) can let themselves show their skills. Since knowing this, Nightingale has also become interested, and the alarm will follow as soon as the bell rings. Maybe I want to compete with the other party to see who is the strongest combat witch.

Roland sighed at bottom of heart and never saw her being so attentive while studying.

However, since fighting side by side can improve the understanding between witch and ordinary people, he is too lazy to stop it. The current revolving rifle is okay against ordinary Evil Beast. It still has some weaknesses against the Wolf Lion hybrid species and has the ability to sit on the scene with the powerful witch. Can effectively stabilize the line of defense, reducing the possibility of troop casualties.

First Army has not experienced one case of death so far.

The departure of Nightingale made him feel moved. combat type witch had its own anti-boring activity, and support witch didn't have so much fun to find. Probably, it's time to create some new entertainment.

Thinking of it, he called Soraya.

"Your Highness, do I have any new tasks to complete?"

This artist named Border Town made a great contribution, and he looks good. His freckles on his face are much lighter, and his smile is full of youthful vitality.

Her Roland was suffocated by her active inquiry. Why did she suddenly feel a guilty conscience?

"Uh, have you been busy recently?"

"No, why do you ask?" Soraya dialed tips of the hair on his forehead. "The number of people who have recently gone to work in the factory has dropped a lot. I can finish the coating in half a day. Mr. alchemist master Cam was busy building those strange metal boxes, "said her paused, and smiled," but I like the full life now, and I am very happy with myself compared to the days when I stayed at Cooperation Association camp. " Ability can help you. "

Well ... the smile is dazzling.

Roland could not help but feel a trace of sin, "cough cough, I called you to come and draw some new cards."

"More Gwent decks?"

"No, you guys are probably tired of it," he waved. "After all, the rules are very simple. If you know the opponent's hole cards, there will not be much change."

"Yeah, too ..."

"You see, the new board looks like this, it's very simple," Roland took out a piece of White Paper and drew a rough sketch. "It was divided into four suits, then counted from one to thirteen, and finally added another King and Queen, a total of 54 cards. "

Soraya has made great progress now. She directly draws a sketch as a base, and quickly draws a hard-coated card. "How to play this?"

"There are many ways to play it, but let's start with the simple ones," Roland tried the feel of poker, and immediately recovered the feeling before crossing. During the Chinese New Year, the most common thing for the family to do is to sit in a fire bucket, watch the Spring Festival Evening, and play all night poker, until the firecrackers are lit during the day to welcome the New Year.

Compared with another traditional entertainment mahjong, poker has no requirements on the venue. A board can be started on the lap, and the gameplay is rich. It is probably the most popular game in the world.

"Go call Anna," Roland laughed, "I teach you Fight the Landlord."
