Bab 13: Winter is Coming
Another night of joy.
The next day, David got up early.
Huo Wu and Shui Lian had already set up breakfast on the third floor.
David sat in the main seat, Shui Lian served beside him, and Huo Wu had already entered the room and began to clean up the mess on the bed and put on new bedding.
Leah had already gotten used to it.
Amy was still blushing and shy.
"Sister, let me help you." Shui Lian walked over and said.
"No need."
Huo Wu said lightly, holding the dirty bedding to wash.
Watching this scene, David narrowed his eyes slightly. Through his observation during this period of time, he found that Huo Wu had been intentionally or unintentionally taking on the dirty work for him.
This means that under Huo Wu's seemingly emotionless appearance, she has been taking care of her sister all the time, and it is not really without any expression.
"It's good that there are still emotions." David's expression became relaxed.
After breakfast, he took Leah and Amy to the secret back garden.
Amy was still sitting on the rattan chair reading a book as usual, while David and Leah were practicing the Frost Wolf Breathing Method to continue to improve their knight strength.
Whoosh whoosh—
Liya's figure danced like an elf.
Her long gray hair fluttered in the wind, and her blood was surging.
Suddenly, Leah opened her eyes with a look of surprise in her eyes.
"Breakthrough?"
David opened his eyes and looked over unexpectedly.
It has been a while since Leah's strength reached the level of a high-level knight attendant. In addition, the system has strengthened the blood of the frost wolf during this period of time, so she should have broken through.
"Yeah!"
Leah nodded excitedly.
She never thought that she would become a formal knight one day!
But now, all this has become a reality.
Thinking of this, Leah couldn't help but throw herself into David's arms, her eyes became hot, "My Lord, I want it."
David naturally would not refuse, and picked up Leah and walked towards the grove on the side. Leah, who had been resistant to this, actually acquiesced without saying a word!
[You and your wife complete a practice, Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline +68]
[Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline: Fourth Level (265/10000)]
As Leah's strength rises to the level of a formal knight, the experience points provided by each double practice have reached 68 points!
Moreover, after Leah breaks through to the level of a formal knight, her physical strength will definitely increase a lot, and the number of practices per day will also increase.
Although the experience points required to upgrade the Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline from the fourth level to the fifth level have reached 10,000 points, as the experience points gained from each practice increase, the improvement speed will not be much slower than before.
After a long time,
the two of them put on their clothes again and walked out.
Amy knew nothing about this. For a simple little witch, doing that in the wild was something that was completely unimaginable and unacceptable.
Even if David wanted to, the little witch would never agree.
Of course, David would not give up.
Before, Leah also disagreed a hundred times, but now she has given in.
At noon time,
the three of them and the two maids had lunch in the pavilion in the garden.
Afterwards, they practiced breathing techniques until the evening, and then returned to the castle together. The evening was the time for double cultivation, and the days were extremely fulfilling.
...
Time came to the severe winter month, November.
From this time on, winter has arrived, and the temperature began to drop sharply.
This means that the predicted disaster of refugees is about to come.
In the study, David looked at the recent situation of the territory with a solemn face.
"This is the information after the census."
The Gray Wolf Knight handed over a stack of parchment, which was densely recorded with the population information of Frostwolf Ridge, accurate to age, residence and family.
This was a task that David had assigned to the officials of the territory before, and each piece of parchment was like a household registration book in the previous life, which allowed him to better understand the people in the territory.
"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Leo."
"Winter is coming, and we can cut off all the roads from Frostwolf Ridge to the outside world next." David issued an executive order that he had already thought of.
The most troublesome thing about the disaster of refugees is the refugees who sneak into the territory. The territory is so large that a few people with ulterior motives sneak in and cannot be discovered at all.
This also means that those mercenaries and wandering knights may take this opportunity to sneak into Frostwolf Ridge, assassinate the officials of Frostwolf Ridge, and cause chaos.
After cutting off the road to the outside world, coupled with patrol militias and census forms, it is not so easy for outsiders to sneak into Frostwolf Ridge!
Of course, it is also difficult to keep all the refugees out of Frostwolf Ridge.
Therefore, David has set aside a piece of land outside Frostwolf Ridge to build a temporary gathering place for refugees. In addition, Frostwolf Ridge should have enough food for refugees to survive the winter, which can allow these refugees to survive this winter.
As long as they survive the winter, these refugees will stay in Frostwolf Ridge. With organic fertilizer, a weapon to increase food production, he is not worried about not being able to support the refugees. Instead, he can absorb these refugees to enhance the overall strength of Frostwolf Ridge.
"Okay, I will convey the order later."
The Gray Wolf Knight nodded, with a relieved expression on his face.
Although the new Frostwolf Duke is not as powerful as the old duke, he can handle all the affairs of the territory in an orderly manner and is already a qualified lord.
It's just a pity.
The Frostwolf Duke still has no heirs.
Thinking of this, the Grey Wolf Knight sorted out the documents in his hand, and then suddenly took out a piece of parchment and handed it to David.
David took it and found that the parchment recorded the information of all the girls in Frost Wolf Ridge. The Grey Wolf Knight's meaning was self-evident.
The lord owns everything in the territory, including the right of virginity. If David orders, the virginity of all girls will belong to the lord.
Of course, David has no interest in this. He just glanced at it and returned the parchment, saying seriously: "I will give birth to an heir as soon as possible."
In fact, he was also very confused. Obviously, he would work hard every time, why did Leah and Amy still have no reaction.
However, it is difficult for bloodline knights to have offspring. The stronger the strength, the more difficult it will be to give birth to offspring. You can only wait slowly.
When the Grey Wolf Knight left, David also returned to the third floor of the castle and started knight training and dual cultivation again, and his strength continued to improve.
...
Time came to the month of ice, December.
This is a much colder winter than in previous years.
The extreme north suffered a cold wave, forcing a large number of civilians to migrate to the south.
These refugees wandered between cities and towns.
However, most of the land could not support more people. The nobles who only knew how to extract blood and sweat from the land and serfs would spare no effort to drive, plunder, or even kill these refugees, driving them closer to Frostwolf Ridge.
Among these refugees, there were also a large number of wandering knights and mercenaries who came with a purpose. They had only one goal: to capture Frostwolf Ridge!
