Chapter 1431 Born for War

A genius can remember the address of this website in one second: (Dianping Chinese), the fastest updates! No ads! "Come on, one, two, three..."

"Celebrating your recovery, cheers!"

In Maleficent's dormitory, a small celebration was underway. Looking at Xia's happy smile from the bottom of her heart, Boshan raised her wine glass helplessly.

As a partner who works together, the other party will come to see her almost whenever he has free time, and does not care about her current situation at all. When she was on Sleeping Island before, she asked herself that she would never be so interested in a non-combat witch. This feeling of guilt and emotion were intertwined, making her feel as if she owed Kasumi a lot.

Although Boshan knew that Xia would never think of this.

But when her eyes moved to another person, her expression was not so pretty.

"Why are you here too?"

Chamu drank the wine confidently, "I brought this wine, why can't I come?"

"It sounds like we won't be able to drink without you." Boshan rolled her eyes, "There are so many taverns in Neverwinter, where can I buy them?"

"Unfortunately, His Majesty has declared a state of emergency in the Western Territory. Alcohol is now a controlled product. You can't buy it without permission." Chamu shrugged, "So thank me properly. This is something I learned from my father." It was sneaked out there.”

War...

Bo Shan suddenly lost the interest in bickering.

Even though she was lying in bed recuperating 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 frontline reports, as well as emergency recruitment and missing persons lists. Judging from the contents of the newspaper, although the garrison gradually stabilized its position and pushed the war back beyond the pioneering areas, the price paid was not small. Several grassland farms and settlements that were finally built were destroyed. , those missing workers are undoubtedly in danger.

The most intuitive reaction to this is that eggs and meat are being reduced in every meal, and bread has become the main food again. Of course, this was still many times better than other cities I had experienced during my exile, and at least I had no problem filling my stomach.

The second is the scene on the street.

She could see a large number of new recruits in military uniforms marching through the Central Street from her window every day, and along the way, residents and relatives were seen farewelling each other on both sides. The nervousness and excitement on the soldier's face were in sharp contrast to the expressions of reluctance and worry around him. Judging from the number of people, the number of troops transferred to the Fertile Plains is by no means a small number. This scale is not at the same level as the previous Knights and Church Judgment Army.

This is war.

For the survival and continuation of the race, thousands of people have devoted themselves to fighting hard, and behind them are ten times or a hundred times more people standing to support them.

The battles she experienced as a fighting witch did seem a bit insignificant in comparison...

She had chosen to go to the Fertile Plains with Xia before because she didn't want to be bumped into by too many acquaintances. Now that the pioneer land was destroyed, she would return to the status of "useless person" again.

"Hey, why did you suddenly stop talking?" Seeing that Bo Shan didn't come back with a sarcastic comment, Chamu was 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 that anyone who says the wrong thing will have to drink three more drinks!"

"Uh... are you drunk..."

"No, this is only the second cup, Xia is fine!"

"Dong dong dong..." At this moment, a sudden knock on the door interrupted Boshan's thoughts.

"Here you come!" Xia jumped up and opened the door, "Eh... Lord Carmilla?"

Standing behind the door was Camilla Darry, the chief housekeeper of Sleeping Island. She glanced at the room and then walked towards the other two people.

"It seems that you have exceeded the visiting hours." Poshan forced a smile, "Ms. Darry hates people who are not punctual. It will probably be difficult for you to sneak in next time."

"How could it be...I obviously remembered the time, it's only less than half an hour..." Chamu muttered softly.

Just when Boshan was about to say something more, Carmilla crossed Chamu and stood in front of her.

"The Witches Alliance has just issued a new recruitment order, which is open to all witches in Graycastle." The chief steward said straight to the point, "The current number is about fifty, and those with combat experience will be given priority. I think you may be more suitable. , so I came here specifically to ask.”

Boshan couldn't help but be stunned. It took her a long time to understand the meaning of the other party's words - centralized recruitment, and combat experience was given priority. Could it be that this job was related to the war? But if this is the case, why are there no requirements for the abilities of the applicants?

"You're right," Carmilla 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 reveal too much specific information, you It should also be clear that there are always risks as long as you are on the battlefield, so it is entirely up to you whether you want to go or not. Of course... although it has nothing to do with ability, it does not mean that you will definitely be selected if you are recruited. The final result depends on look--"

"I'll go." Boshan replied immediately.

There’s nothing to hesitate about, right?

In other words, she has been waiting for this day for a long time.

"Then...come with me." Carmilla turned sideways.

"Hey, do you really want to go to the front line?" When passing by Chamu, his tone seemed worried.

"What, I thought you would cheer loudly," Boshan curled her lips, "That way, no one will disturb you when you ask Xia."

"I..." He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but looking at Boshan's back, Chamu did not speak in the end.

…

One day later, Boshan took the train and arrived at the starting station of the Hidden Forest.

The person in charge was also changed from Carmilla to a woman she had never seen before. She called herself Isabella and was mainly responsible for the selection and guidance of this recruitment. Although it was the first time to see him, for some reason, Bo Shan always felt that he had seen her before.

Another thing that surprised her was that more people responded to the recruitment than expected - not only Maleficent, but also many 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 several very familiar figures in the crowd, such as Ife, who once belonged to the Blood Fang Society. and Higurashi.

It seems that they also hope to prove their worth on the battlefield.

After getting off the bus, the witches, led by Isabella, walked into a building that looked like a factory.

The moment they entered the house, everyone's eyes were attracted by a steel sculpture parked in the middle of the open space.

It looks like a "car", as evidenced by the parallel wheels underneath. However, it is different from any other car in Neverwinter. It has five wheels on one side, and they are all made of metal. The bottom is spliced ​​and wrapped by pieces of iron plates. Its shape is extremely special.

Boshan recognized it at a glance. This thing was somewhat similar to the machines used to dig mud and reclaim wasteland in the pioneer fields... Yes, it was the kind of thing called a tractor.

It's just that compared to the tractor, the iron lump in front of you is much bigger, especially the upper level, which is almost tightly surrounded by iron plates. It has a fortress-like tower on its head, and the short metal tube sticking out in the middle is obviously an artillery piece. .

You can tell at a glance that it is a weapon made for war.
