Release that Witch - Chapter 1478
[Chapter 1431 Born For War]
The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No advertisements! “Come on, one, two, three…”
“Congratulations on your recovery from injury, cheers!”
In Maleficent’s dormitory, a small celebration is going on.
Looking at Xia’s happy smile from the heart, Poshan reluctantly raised his wine glass.
As a partner who works together, the other party will come to see her almost whenever he is free, and doesn’t care about her current situation at all.
When she was on Sleeping Island before, she thought she would never care so much about a non-combat witch. This feeling of guilt and emotion was intertwined, making her feel as if she owed Xia a lot.
Although Poshan knew that Xia would never think of this.
But when her gaze shifted to another person, her complexion was not so pretty.
“Why are you here too?”
Chamuli drank the wine confidently, “I brought this wine, why can’t I come?”
“It’s as if we can’t drink wine without you.” Poshan rolled her eyes, “There are so many taverns in Neverwinter, where can I buy them?”
“Unfortunately, His Majesty has declared that the western border has entered a state of emergency war. Alcohol is now a controlled product. If you don’t have permission, you can’t buy it.” Chamu shrugged, “So thank me very much, this is what I learned from my father. Sneaked out of there.”
war…
Poshan suddenly lost the interest in bickering.
Even though she was recuperating in bed these days, she could feel the increasingly tense atmosphere in Neverwinter.
First, there were more and more news about the pioneering land in the weekly newspaper, and now it has become two to three additional issues a week, including front-line reports, as well as emergency recruitment and tracing lists.
Judging from the contents of the newspaper, although the garrison troops have gradually stabilized their positions and pushed the flames of war out of the open land again, the price they paid was not small. Several prairie farms and settlements that were built with great difficulty were destroyed. , Those missing workers are undoubtedly more or less ominous.
The most intuitive response to this is that the eggs and meat in each meal are decreasing, and bread has become the main food again.
Of course, this is still many times better than other cities I experienced in exile in the past, at least there is no problem with filling my stomach.
The second is the scene on the street.
Every day, she can see a large number of recruits in military uniforms parading through the Central Street from the window, while residents and relatives are seeing off residents and relatives along the way.
The nervousness and excitement on the soldiers’ faces were in stark contrast to the expressions of reluctance and worry around them.
In terms of numbers, the number of troops transferred to the Fertile Plains is by no means a small number. Compared with the past Knights and the Church Judgment Army, this scale is not at the same level.
This is war.
For the survival and continuation of the race, tens of thousands of people fought hard, and behind them stood ten times and a hundred times the people to support them.
The battles she experienced when she was a battle witch are indeed insignificant compared to them…
Before choosing to go to the Fertile Plain with Xia, she didn’t want to be bumped into by too many acquaintances. Now that the pioneering land has been destroyed, she will return to the state of “useless person” again.
“Hey, why are you silent all of a sudden?” Seeing that Poshan didn’t come back with sarcasm, Chamu couldn’t help being a little surprised. He touched the back of his head and looked at Xia secretly, “Did I say something wrong?”
“Xia doesn’t know,” Xia stuck out her tongue, “but Xia knows, whoever says something wrong will have to drink three more glasses!”
“Uh…are you drunk…”
“No, this is only the second cup, Xia is fine!”
“Dong dong dong…” At this moment, a knock on the door suddenly interrupted Poshan’s thoughts.
“Here we come!” Xia Lian bouncingly opened the door, “Eh…Master Camilla?”
Standing behind the door was Sleeping Island’s chief steward, Camilla Darry. She glanced inside the room, and then walked towards the other two.
“It seems that you have exceeded the visiting time.” Poshan forced a smile, “Ms. Darry hates people who are not punctual. It will be difficult for you to get in again next time.”
“How come… I obviously remember the time, it’s only been less than half an hour…” Chamu whispered.
Just when Poshan was about to say something more, Camilla passed Cham and stood in front of her.
“The Witch Union has just released a new recruitment order, which is open to all witches in Graycastle.” The head steward said straight to the point, “Currently, the tentative number is around 50, and those with combat experience are preferred. I think you may be more suitable. , so I came here to ask.”
Poshan couldn’t help being stunned. It took her a long time to figure out what the other party meant – centralized recruitment, and priority in combat experience. Could it be that this job is related to war?
But if this is the case, why is there no requirement for the ability of the recruiter?
“You guessed it right,” Camilla seemed to see her doubts, “The witch will form a special team to support the front line and assist the main force to deal with more difficult battles. I can’t disclose too much specific information, you It should also be clear that as long as you are on the battlefield, there are bound to be risks, so whether you want to go or not is completely up to you. Of course… Although it has nothing to do with ability, it does not mean that you will be selected if you are recruited. Look–”
“I’ll go.” Poshan replied immediately.
There is nothing to hesitate at all, is there?
In other words, she has been waiting for such a day for a long time.
“Then… come with me.” Camilla turned sideways.
“Hey, are you really going to the front line?” When he passed by Chamu, his tone seemed a little worried.
“What, I thought you would cheer loudly,” Poshan curled her lips, “That way, no one will disturb you when you make an appointment with Xia.”
“I…” He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but looking at Poshan’s back, Chamu finally didn’t speak.
…
A day later, Poshan arrived at the starting station of the Misty Forest by train.
The person in charge has also changed from Camilla to a woman she has never seen before. She calls herself Isabella and is mainly responsible for the screening and mentoring of this recruitment.
Although it was the first time to see her, for some reason, Poshan always felt a sense of déjà vu.
And another thing that surprised her was that there were more people who responded to the recruitment than expected—not only Maleficent, but also a lot of people from the Witch Union.
In just half an hour on the road, she got to know Vanilla, Amy, Hero and others. In addition, she also saw a few very familiar figures in the crowd, such as Yifei who used to belong to the Bloodfang Society. and sunset.
It seems that they also hope to prove their worth on the battlefield.
After getting off the car, the witches, led by Isabella, walked into a factory-like building.
The moment they entered the house, everyone was attracted by a steel object parked in the center of the open space.
It looks like a “car”, as evidenced by the juxtaposition of wheels beneath it.
However, it is different from any other car in Neverwinter. It only has five wheels on one side, and they are all made of metal. The bottom is spliced and wrapped by pieces of iron plates, and its shape is very special.
Poshan immediately recognized that this thing was somewhat similar to those machines that dredged mud and reclaimed wasteland in the pioneering land… That’s right, it was the kind of thing called a tractor.
It’s just that compared to the tractor, the iron bumps in front of me are much bigger, especially the upper floor, which is almost tightly surrounded by iron plates, with a fortress-like tower on the head, and the short metal tube protruding from the middle is obviously a cannon .
You can tell at a glance that it is a weapon born for war.
