At supper time, Griffith's friends came to visit. Everyone knows that Griffith's cabin has finally been decorated, and they have long wanted to come and sit there. Although there are exams tomorrow and everyone can't play too aggressively, this is ultimately much more free than a campus where students are not allowed to cook their own food. Lana and Murat set up a hot pot in the small yard, brought a lot of spices and a whole sheep to prepare for a feast.
The living room was covered with fine cashmere rugs sent from the East, the stairs and floors were replaced with beautiful and strong walnut wood, and the lawn was re-paved and peach trees were taken care of in the backyard.
Sonia looked around with admiration and handed several of the latest briefings to Griffith.
"Isn't Galadia coming?"
"She, she said she wanted to rest today," Griffith said while rubbing his face with vague palm prints. "Come, please visit the bedroom and attic."
After saying this, he invited the countess to come upstairs. Midianmaiya happily tried to follow her, but Ophelia grabbed her by the back of the neck and dragged her back from the stairs.
Griffith went upstairs and looked at the papers.
The events in Metini on December 16 had further consequences. Griffith's troops evacuated after a fierce battle with the college's wizards and Beyonders, leaving other professors and employees of the school at a loss to deal with the aftermath.
Late that night, a Beyeland extraordinary commando team arrived and conducted a careful survey of the scene with the school. There, body parts of some "mutants" were found.
A certain secretive organization acted faster and more resolutely than the Beyelan military. It took action brazenly at the point when Odessa had launched the ceremony and was preparing to evacuate, first using a carriage filled with kerosene, dust crystals and flammable materials. Launch a peripheral attack, and then send a capable team of Beyonders to break into the academy's secret vault.
A self-destructing carriage with added mysterious materials...somewhat similar to my undead self-destructing ball, but much more powerful. Griffith was attracted by the sight of self-destructing carriages attacking the school gates and walls. The investigation showed that although there were high-level spellcasters at the scene to block them, these carriages still played a great role. The shock wave and fragments of the explosion caused widespread damage to the scene. The chaos directly affected the school's support for the actual direction of the attack.
The driver driving the carriage was killed immediately, and only a small part of the body was found after the explosion. If such an attack were to hit regular troops without means of control and deceleration, the casualties would definitely be too heavy to accept.
The attackers who penetrate deep into the sealed artifact vault are even more powerful. According to investigations, they can transform into monster forms, grow squid tentacles, have cow hooves, and are covered with scales and hard skin. Their strength and physique are far superior to humans. They can even hide their whereabouts and emit lightning and poisonous mist. .
Such living beings can no longer be called human beings, and have completely different abilities corresponding to extraordinary characteristics... The report gave them a formal name - mutants, which specifically refers to those whose appearance is similar to humans and whose bodies are in the state of mutation and Human beings in a state of chaos.
Griffith has encountered young soldiers from the Westeros Special Combat Technology Force who can transform into giant snakes, warriors integrated with armor, and dragon-like giant lizards. Officials are still wary of using these half-human, half-monster soldiers. Be cautious and cautious. However, as the war ended and the soldiers returned home, the technology for creating humanoid monsters seemed to have spread.
The changes in the attackers who raided Medini were more powerful and chaotic, like many different creatures kneaded together. The advancement of technology was obvious.
So, does this mean there will be even bigger, more powerful, more indescribable creatures?
"The attackers who attacked Medini College and tried to seize the sealed artifacts came from Verona." While Griffith was standing by the wall reading documents, Sonia came over and poked her head in, and added.
"Huh?" Griffith looked at her, then turned back the report in his hand and saw that the relevant information was not very detailed.
The countess seems to have her own intelligence channel: "They are a group of professional mercenaries. According to the latest official records available, they were hired by local nobles to resist the rebel offensive. Griffith, you have grown taller~"
Sonia was also very tall, but she had to stand on tiptoes and hold Griffith's arm to barely see the document.
When Griffith came back to his senses, he felt a heavy and elastic feeling on his arm pressing down on him. He couldn't help but touch the tip of his nose: "Sonia, you have grown up too."
"Well, I'm seventeen years old!" Sonia took off her slippers and walked briskly to the double bed and sat down. "What a comfortable bed! Did you choose it?"
Griffith didn't know how to answer, so he could only laugh twice with "black mouth". Just when he was about to say something casually to deal with it, he couldn't help but be stunned by the sight in front of him.
Sonia lay down on it as if she were at home. The soft bedding has the smell of sunshine and a wonderful and wonderful fragrance, which reminds me of the rustling maple forest under the autumn colors. It is very familiar, but a little bit confusing.
Is this the smell of Griffith? Sonia's face suddenly turned red. She turned around quickly to prevent the knight who was close at hand from seeing her pretty face that was about to get angry. She also reached out and pulled the pillow not far away, preparing to hide in it.
A thick big pillow is held in my arms, which is warm, fulfilling and safe. Sonia curled up, not wanting to leave here even more.
However, when she thought that her knight was still watching her back, she became nervous again. She was worried that her hairstyle would not look good today, and she wanted to pull up her skirt, but she didn't dare...
What is Griffith doing? Why doesn't he speak? Is he looking at me? well--! Why did I just lie on his bed? How inappropriate for a girl!
What was Griffith thinking? Why didn't he stop me, what should I do now? Should I sit up or continue lying down? Well, it’s so embarrassing!
Sonia's face was so hot that it was about to burn. She hugged the big pillow tightly and subconsciously dug her head under it.
ah--!
Me, what have I done!
Sonia realized that she was rolling around on the bed of the boy she had the best relationship with, and even got into the pillow, and her shame suddenly exploded.
At this moment, something seemed to be tickling the tip of her nose. Sonia touched it with her hand and found a long hair.
A long black hair...
"!!!"
Sonia felt like she had been struck by a bolt from the blue, and there was severe pain in her chest. She almost couldn't breathe when she thought of the fragrance like autumn leaves.
Why is Sonia in a bad mood all of a sudden...
Griffith was still admiring Sonia's graceful back just now, when he suddenly felt clearly that the Countess's sparkling state had turned dim, and he didn't know why. He didn't dare to ask, so he turned around quickly, opened the cabinet, fiddled with it for a while, and took out a box from inside.
"What are you doing?" Sonia turned around in a depressed mood and looked at her knight with some sadness.
"These are the gifts I collected to give to everyone during the Frost Festival. Let me show you first." Griffith opened the box and laid out a row of golden eggs, then took out a hammer. "Whatever I hit, I will What can I give you?"
Sonia took the small hammer, thought for a moment, and hit him with the hammer.
Then, he knocked again.
