Remember [ ] in one second, no pop-up windows, fast updates, and free reading!

Boom boom boom…

There was a sound of iron plates hitting each other.

"Get up! Everyone in the town, get up." People continued to shout as the hammering continued.

From the streets to the alleys, Dante's guards were almost everywhere waking up those who were still sleeping.

"Everyone, get up! The Lord wants to summon us... All young men, grab your tools and come with us!"

Residents living in the northern part of the town might have been woken up by the noise just now, but those living in the southernmost part still had to scream... The entire town of Thelmian is home to three thousand households all year round.

If all the young and middle-aged people were organized, there would be at least three to four thousand people.

There are even many foreign businessmen, mercenaries, etc. ...including the archaeological team.

"What's going on outside? Why is it so noisy all of a sudden?" Kerry is used to going to bed early, so he also gets up early.

He had already woken up slightly before daybreak...

"I'm not sure. It seems that the Baron of this town is gathering the people for something. There are sounds of people calling for assembly outside." A bright light with fire flashed outside the window. It should be close to dawn now, but because it is winter, the sun rises later, and torches are still used to illuminate the road in the dark.

The knocking sounds came in waves, and even the corridor began to become noisy.

"Manus, go and see what's going on. A lord wouldn't summon everyone for no reason unless something big happened." Although Kerry is an expert in archaeology, he is also an old mercenary. He has been to many places and seen many things in the past ten years.

After saying that, the younger team member opened the door and walked out...

As soon as I opened the door, I realized how noisy the noise outside was. Almost the entire hotel was alarmed.

Manus hurried back after being out for a few minutes!

"Captain, something happened!"

"What's the matter? Don't panic, speak slowly." Kerry saw the team member running in with a panicked look on his face.

"There was an avalanche in the north, and it is said that the entire village was buried. It is in the northeast... the creek village we visited before." The few of them had just returned from the mountains, and it was the village they had just passed by a few days ago!

After hearing the news, Kerry broke out in a cold sweat.

Creek Village.

I brought my team here just two days ago. Although there are many ways to enter the mountain, the ancient tomb is on the east side. If you want to enter, it is most convenient to go through Xi Village, because that is the timber supply area in this town, and there is experience of previous generations going into the mountains to cut wood, so the road is easier to walk on.

In remote parts of the country, those pristine forest areas are no joke.

Many places have almost never been visited by anyone. If you want to open up your own path without following the path taken by your predecessors, it would be extremely difficult and even very risky.

"So what are they going to do now?"

"It is said that Baron Weigel organized people to dig and open up the road to Xi Village, and asked everyone to bring tools and torches." Manus said.

"Go now? Why go now? There is almost no possibility of survival in an avalanche. It will be very dangerous if it snows... Doesn't Baron Weigel understand?" Kerry stood up and walked directly to the window.

On the street outside the window, a large number of people began to go out with their own shovels, and some even pulled donkey carts and carts... Just then, someone rushed over from under the house. Kerry knew that person, who was the owner of the hotel and his family.

"This is a small place after all. Many people haven't learned anything, so they probably don't understand. I really hope nothing goes wrong." Manus said behind him.

Even if you think you are knowledgeable, you will not make fun of others at this time.

"No……"

"What's wrong, Captain?"

Kerry suddenly turned around and looked at the other person.

"Perhaps this remote baron is not as clumsy as we thought, and he must do this, and it is most correct."

Manus looked at Kerry with some confusion.

"He is now the spiritual pillar of the entire Thermian. People from all over the region are looking to him for answers... Let's go too."

Kerry suddenly stood up.

"Go? Where are we going, Captain."

"It's better than just sitting here... wake up Guda, and wake up Gwyn and Elia as well." As he said this, he started to put on his clothes and prepare to go out.

…………………………

The sky was still dark, but the entire north side of the town was illuminated by the fire.

When Kerry and his four men arrived, many people had already started digging. The ground had turned into mud and water, and the view ahead was blocked by a large area of ​​ice and snow.

The road from Telemian to the outside world also leads to the north. Given such a large area, the road ahead is probably also blocked.

"What's the situation, brother?" Kerry stopped a middle-aged man who was loading snow with a rope cart and asked.

The people who were maintaining order seemed to be the town's guard team. Everyone was busy in one place, and even many animals could be seen joining in, as well as people crying on the other side.

At this time, other women were comforting them.

The visible areas were blocked by snow, as well as waste materials and fallen vegetation pushed over by the heavy snow.

"Who are you?"

The middle-aged man asked casually because his clothes were different from others.

"We are foreign adventurers who have just arrived in town and would like to help!" said Kerry.

"I see..." The middle-aged man suddenly shook his head and sighed.
