Release that Witch - Chapter 1066

[Chapter 1044 Shaken Heart]

Lightning and Maggie slowly landed on the roof of the witch building.

After closing the door of the corridor, the howling cold wind subsided a lot, leaving only a few hisses that slipped in through the gaps.

“Phew, my hair is soaking wet,” Pigeon shook the snowflakes stuck to his body, and turned into a human again.

The wings swelled to the sides, eventually becoming her white hair that reached to her bare feet.

It looked and felt very soft, but the girl’s hair was not blown into a mess by the strong wind, but wrapped around her like a jacket, like a ball of cotton.

However, due to being soaked in snow water, her hair looked a little dull and lost its original fluffy feeling.

“Well, you should go take a shower first, so as not to catch a cold.” Lightning took off the windshield and glanced outside the door—the climate of the Demon Moon is so unpredictable, just now there were only scattered snowfalls, but now it is The wind and snow were blowing, and the sky and the earth were full of palm-sized snowflakes, and the restorative training had to be temporarily suspended.

“Aren’t you going to wash with me?” Maggie asked in surprise.

“Didn’t Your Majesty say that the wound should be kept as dry as possible and not in contact with water?” Lightning shrugged, “So I’ll just wipe it with hot water. Anyway, this coat won’t let snow water seep in.”

“So that’s it!” She brushed aside the bangs sticking to her face, and grinned to show her white teeth, “Then I’ll wipe it for you after I’m done washing. Ashes used to praise me for rubbing my back very comfortably, and I don’t need a towel.” Goo!”

“Uh… how did you rub it?”

“Coo like this,” she grabbed two locks of long hair and made a circle gesture.

“I refuse.” Lightning rolled his eyes, “If it’s a towel, I can still think about it—in short, you go quickly.”

“Oh!”

After Maggie headed towards the castle with the tub on her head, Lightning turned around and walked into the bedroom alone.

After closing the door, she leaned on the door and stretched out her right hand.

Until now, her fingertips were still trembling uncontrollably, as if she couldn’t control it.

She couldn’t help showing a wry smile.

As long as she closes her eyes, the image of the devil catching her will always appear in her mind. After these days of recovery, the fear has not left her, but has taken root in her heart-this is the first time that Lightning meet.

Whether she was facing His Majesty Roland or a partner in the expedition group, she tried her best to put on a relaxed look of “this little injury is not a big deal”, but if only discussing the injury, even Nightingale couldn’t detect her abnormality .

But in fact, only she knew how bad her situation was.

Letting Maggie go to the shower alone was also because she was afraid that the other party would see this—to see how fragile this self-proclaimed explorer was actually!

Lightning slid to the ground little by little, burying his head in his knees.

Although Phyllis reassured her that the enemy might have abilities similar to the inner fear and could inflict fear through their eyes, she knew that this was no excuse.

Witches have a high resistance to mind influence, not to mention that it has been so long.

Maggie was also within the opponent’s sphere of influence at the time, but her performance was far superior to her own.

It’s okay if you’re just scared.

It wasn’t the first time she felt scared.

Fear stems from the unknown, and unless one is omniscient, fear cannot be avoided.

The key is to be afraid of what comes after.

In the past, such emotions would not bother her for too long at all, but instead would arouse her fighting spirit-she also always believed that nothing could really scare herself.

But this time, Lightning found that there was nothing left in his heart.

Not to mention the struggle, I don’t even want to recall the scene at that time.

Today’s recovery training has been hovering in the east of Neverwinter City, not taking a step beyond the city wall, not because of ability or physical reasons, but because she is afraid of the bottomless snow field – the ground under her feet seems to have become thousands of miles away. Climbing cliffs, and the edge of the sky seems to engulf all the chasm.

Just looking into the distance, she could feel the trembling from the bottom of her heart.

She was not defeated by the devil’s magic power, but was awed by the evil and strength of the opponent, just like meeting a predator’s prey. This fear was more serious than the magic power, and even hindered her flight.

Lightning hugged his knees tightly.

What expedition leader, she is just a coward!

What would Lei Ting do if she was still by her side?

For him who has crossed countless dangerous seas, there must be a way to deal with such a situation, right?

“Father……”

She couldn’t help murmuring.

“What should I do?”

*******************

The southern section of the Hidden Forest, Mori Zero Site.

This is also the starting station of the wild railway line.

With the successful development of the steam train, the development of the forest in Neverwinter City will be greatly improved—from timber to food, and even the coal mines near the snow-capped mountains have been included in the new route plan.

In the coming year, this Guangwo Forest Sea, which was originally sparsely populated and full of wild animals, will become a real treasure house.

But for now, railroads are still built for one purpose only.

That is war.

The area around the station has been cordoned off by the First Corps, awaiting His Majesty’s testing of the new weapons.

Iron Ax is naturally one of them.

He still remembers the scene when he participated in the black powder test explosion with His Majesty four years ago, UU reading www.sonicmtl.

com At that time, he was just an insignificant hunter, and he regarded gunpowder as the fire of punishment.

The thunderous roar seemed to open a door he had never seen before, and from that day on, his fate changed drastically.

Now, as the commander of the First Army of Greycastle, Iron Ax will naturally not passively participate in the experiment like before.

He already knew what he was going to face today—in fact, it was not really a “new” weapon. Its two main parts: the artillery and the train, had already been revealed to everyone. Definitely out of the question.

Because of this, he thought that this test could finally put away his surprise and pass it with a relatively calm mood.

That’s how it should be.

After all, he is an important minister of His Majesty Roland, so he should be calm and composed at all times, even if his back is facing the thunder and fire, he should still smile, just like His Majesty himself…

However, as the whistle blew and the new weapon slowly drove out of the garage, Iron Ax found out that he was wrong.

The train is no longer what it was when we first saw it—it is surrounded by pitch-black steel plates from top to bottom, only half of the wheels below are exposed. A strong sense of oppression formed a sharp contrast with the surrounding snow scene.

It is by no means kind.

Just look at it and you will understand the truth.

His Majesty often said that a machine is a wonderful thing. He has never quite understood it, but when he saw the white mist spraying from the roof and between the wheels, brushing against the armored surface covered with neat rivets, Iron Ax suddenly understood this sentence. The meaning of the words.

The giant steel ship is also shocking, but compared to the train in front of me, it is a little less contagious.

Because it’s not just a machine.

It is a weapon full of chilling intent!
