Positive little sun, magical girl, I am awesome

Chapter 306 Andre Russell

"Why is there a teleportation array here? Aren't they afraid of being held accountable by the Magicians' Guild?" Lulu asked in a low voice after everyone came over.

"Well, do you think anyone from the union would come to inspect such a desolate place? If I were a local resident, I would not tell anyone unless the union asked me. But if they asked me, I would be surprised and just use it for as long as possible." Lilith made up stories and thought to herself that it was no wonder that Catherine was so confident in growing hybrid crops here. There was no one in charge here.

But... Duke William doesn't look stupid, and Catherine is also very diligent. How could they manage their hometown into such a mess? How serious is the disaster that Catherine mentioned? And -

What about those seniors who came to Ozler for internship? What have they been busy with in the past few years?

"Don't worry about why there is a teleportation array here. As Lilith said, existence is reasonable!" Sean rubbed his hands impatiently, "Where will it lead to?"

Lilith thought about it, took out a small piece of magic stone from the ring and was about to press it on.

"Lilith." Ian rarely raised an objection to her. He walked over with a torch and whispered, "The other side is an unknown place. It's dark now. If we teleport over rashly, we may have to face unknown dangers."

"It's not an unknown place." Lucas disagreed. He squatted opposite Lilith, pointed at a series of twisted lines on the teleportation array and said, "Although I don't know magic, but here, are the coordinates of the teleportation written here?"

Following his guidance, everyone circled the teleportation array half a circle. The scene was somewhat funny.

Lilith carefully identified it for a long time in the flickering firelight. There were indeed words in the middle of the complicated magic pattern.

"Icewind Mill..." Lilith said, twisting her head.

"What is that place?"

…………

The second line of defense is in the storm shelter.

"You have worked hard."

Daniel sat on the ground with the others, squeezed together, watching Catherine communicate with Andre Russell in a gentle voice while steadily pouring the bottle of medicine in her hand onto the arm of the dwarf of the Taylor family.

The blood of the Void Beast has unknown corrosive properties. If it seeps into the ground, it will take many years for the land to recover and replant crops. If it splashes onto a person's body and is not treated in time, it can even corrode the bones.

A transparent potion was poured on Leila's wound. Daniel heard the sizzling sound of bubbles and saw a small purple mist steaming up from the dwarf's wound. The corroded flesh and blood were washed out of the wound along with the potion. After a long time, bright red new flesh was finally revealed. The muscles on the dwarf's cheeks twitched, but he didn't make a sound.

"It was not my intention to let you face all this right away, so I placed you on the second line of defense. But a few days ago, they suddenly gathered a large number of beasts and continuously attacked the first line of defense on our coastline at night." Catherine's eyes were dark blue, but she never stopped talking. She was talking to Andre and the other recruits resting nearby.

"Please don't worry too much. My father and mother are on guard at the coastline right now. We will definitely be able to survive this wave of beasts." She said soothingly.

Andre had too many questions in his mind, but looking at the busy princess in front of him, he finally suppressed his doubts and only put forward his own suggestions, "Your Highness Catherine, you...we should seek help from the High Court and the Church of Light. With only you and these..."

He looked at the men in black robes who fell to the ground and dozed off immediately, and began to reflect on whether his original impression of them was too stereotyped.

"We should seek help from those favored by God." Andre was once a member of the Knights of Light. He knew very well that the abilities of those favored by God were definitely no worse than those in black robes.

"Humph--"

Andre saw that the red-haired girl, who had remained silent, sneered. Her wound had been treated, and she was now taking off her great sword, throwing it on the ground and resting on it.

"It's too cold here, Leila..." Catherine wanted to persuade her guardian to move to the fire, but Leila was obviously too tired to move at all. She was silent, took out the fox fur cloak that Lilith had prepared for her sister from the ring, and covered Leila with it.

The huge plush cloak made the girl lying on the ground look even smaller and more pitiful. Andre looked at her with pity. She looked even smaller than his sister...

"Mr. Andre."

Catherine motioned for him to move to the side, and when she passed Daniel, she stopped.

"Kai, Her Highness Catherine." Daniel looked at the princess in front of him, his tone dazed.

Since the day he stepped into Ozler, he felt as if he had fallen into a long nightmare and had never woken up. But now, looking at the princess who was dressed completely differently from the past, he would rather this was a dream than reality.

Catherine looked at the disheveled and dazed Daniel without saying anything, but handed him a bottle of medicine.

"But I, I'm not hurt..." Daniel stuttered. Most of the time, he just hid inside the wall and was responsible for reconnaissance. Even today, he didn't do anything useful. It couldn't be blamed on him. How could he deal with those things?

"This is a sleeping potion. It will help you have a good, dreamless sleep tonight." Catherine said lightly.

Daniel's face suddenly turned red, and he took the cold medicine bottle cowardly, sat back on the ground, and watched Andre and Catherine leave together.

He looked down at the potion in his hand, then looked at Andre who had been able to adapt well these days, and hatred flashed in his eyes.

His grandfather didn't say anything to him and just left him here... Nothing had changed, he was still just a pawn paving the way for the family.

"Your Highness Catherine, what do you think of the suggestion I just made..." Andre said hurriedly as soon as he left the soldiers' rest area and walked outside into the biting cold wind.

"Before winter every year, my father would hold lengthy meetings with the adults in High Court to discuss Ozler's supplies for the coming year—" Catherine turned around and broke Andre's simple fantasy. "Bishop Quincy participated in every meeting."

"What, what——" Andre was stunned and asked in disbelief. Bishop Quincy was one of the main leaders of the Knights of Light...

"They, they all know?" Andre said in a daze. Yes, this is the place declared by the church to be a God-forsaken land. How could they not know?

"They insist that it is a deformed and crazy mermaid, the product of the immorality of the sea god, and that my father's actions are just an attempt to drain the empire's treasury. What do you think, Chevalier Andre?" Catherine said as she kept walking, checking the damage caused by the impact to the wooden wall to see where repairs were needed.

"No, it's not a mermaid." No matter how much Andre was reluctant to admit it, he understood that the view of the Church of Light was wrong. Why would the Father God pass down such a wrong oracle? It was clearly -

"Her Highness Catherine!"

On the wooden arrow tower, a sentry suddenly shouted, attracting the attention of the two men. The man on the tower pointed far to the southwest. Andre saw a red light shooting straight into the sky. After flying into the clouds, it turned into a red thunder, almost splitting the night sky.

What is this? Confusion flashed across Andre's face. He looked at Catherine, but found that her face was pale.

"The second line of defense in that direction has been lost. We have to go to provide support." As she spoke, she ran towards the shelter and called for help.

"Your Highness." A black-armored knight who came with her tried to stop her. "You haven't slept for a day and a night. Let's go--"

“No.” Catherine refused decisively, walked around him and continued forward. “Mother has been pushing the front line forward for so many years and finally won us safe land for giving birth. The second line of defense must not be broken, and behind it is…”

She walked away while talking.

Andre stood there at a loss, not knowing what to do. He didn't dare to ask to go with them, fearing that he would not be able to help and would be a hindrance, but the prince's expression was so anxious.

There were more and more people around me, countless of them running out of the shelter. The sounds of footsteps, unscrewing bottles and swallowing energy potions, and the clinking of weapons and armor mixed together, but no one spoke. The atmosphere was strangely noisy and quiet.

The sentry who had just discovered the danger also ran down, but was stopped by Andre and asked, "What's that place over there?" He pointed to the red thunder in the sky.

"Alterac Outpost." The sentinel looked anxious as he looked along the endless wooden wall.

"We can't break through there, the Icewind Mill is right behind it!"
