It's early winter, but at noon, the temperature is still above 30 degrees. The great temperature difference between day and night is a climatic feature of the new era. Although it's about 30 degrees now, in the evening, the temperature will drop to about - 5 degrees below zero. With the passage of time, when winter comes, the temperature difference will shrink, but the temperature is much colder than it is now.
During the day, the average temperature is very close to zero, and at night, the temperature will even drop to minus 20 or 30 degrees. If there is not enough heating and food, life is hard to live through a cold winter.
For example, in mainland China, most cities are in the form of underground bases, which is conducive to isolation from the cold. In the west, there are obviously not so many underground bases. But in every big city, there must be a perfect heating system, which can ensure that people can safely stay in their homes in winter without being forced to die. Naturally, this kind of welfare does not exist in all cities. Only a few other important cities, except New Rome, will be equipped with such a system.
As for other places, in the absence of heating system, only the most primitive heating method can be used. Wood and fuel are necessary for winter. Many families begin to store fuel, food and water in autumn. Then, when the cold winter comes, they will hide at home. Like animals living in hibernation, what people do every day is eat and sleep.
Of course, there are many people who can't get enough supplies. For example, the outer island, where the conditions are bad, has always been the place with the largest number of casualties in winter.
Human beings have to prepare early for winter, so do animals.
Just like now, a red wolf is chasing the Striped sheep, and the two animals are moving fast in the Bush and running up the road. In the end, it was the red wolf who killed the Striped sheep.
These two kinds of animals are new species in the western continent. In the great cleansing of exotic animals in the dark age, many powerful exotic animals on the continent died. However, some small and weak beasts have gradually evolved to adapt to the environment of the mainland. However, perhaps the great cleaning of the papal hall left a deep impression on the animals, so these later species were very slow in the process of evolution, and the direction of evolution was mainly to adapt to the environment, while the evolution of aggression was reduced.
This may also be out of a kind of self-protection, so as not to be too biased towards aggressive evolution, which leads to the second cleaning of the papal chamber.
For example, red wolf and striped wolf are new species after cleaning. Red wolf is a close relative of jungle wolf, but they are more robust. An adult red wolf is the size of a lion. They are quick and cruel. Red wolves have more or less the ability of fire element affinity, which makes their hair always red, and can emit 300 degree fire.
It's just that the ability of flame breathing is also a huge burden for them. Each breath will consume their huge energy. Generally speaking, red wolves are better at using their agility, teeth and claws to cause damage to their prey.
They are the most powerful wild animals in the western continent, with few natural enemies. But the breeding capacity of the red wolf is seriously degraded, and the total number of the whole continent is less than 3000. This species can only maintain its own existence.
The Striped sheep is the favorite animal of red wolf and even human beings. They are natural food. The fur of striped sheep can keep warm. Their muscles are rich in protein, and they are high in calories and nutrients. What's more, these herbivorous animals have a high reproductive capacity, which is opposite to the red wolf.
Kill the prey, the red wolf is ready to drag it back to its nest. With this striped sheep, it will store enough food for its family for the winter. A gust of wind from the north side of the road, the wind with some complex smell. Red wolf's wisdom is very high, so it can easily distinguish the smell of gasoline and gunpowder in the wind.
The feeling of vibration also came from the thick meat mat under the limbs, which showed that something was approaching in front of the road. Red wolf very alert to stand up, it looked at the body of prey, finally can only bear to leave it alone. The red wolf ran away from the road like a running fire and plunged into the bush. Using the Bush as a cover, it calmly hid its body, and then a pair of wolf eyes looked out.
On the horizon at the north end of the road, a large truck first jumped out of the horizon. Its engine gave out a strong sound. The wheels of the truck ran over the road and soon passed near the Bush where red wolf was hiding. In the eyes of the red wolf, there were two rows of soldiers sitting in the compartment of the truck. As truck after truck came from the north end of the road, they formed a torrent of steel.
This red wolf has also wandered to the outskirts of human cities. It knows that those big iron blocks can carry human beings to move rapidly on the earth. But red wolf has never seen so many cars. There are so many cars that they can hardly be seen. The red wolf squatted there and did not dare to move, but the traffic in front of him had lasted for half an hour without stopping.If the red wolf's wisdom is higher, it can be estimated much more. The dragon has been running for several kilometers. There are tens of thousands of soldiers in this car!
The truck finally passed, but another kind of monster appeared in the eyes of red wolf.
Red wolf had never seen such iron. They were shorter than the truck in front of them, and they didn't walk on wheels. There was a surrounded iron pipe above the iron blocks. Looking at the iron pipe, red wolf felt extremely uneasy. With the wisdom of red wolf, we can't understand what artillery tank is, but instinctively detect the danger on this kind of human war weapon.
After the trucks, there was the tank phalanx. Behind the gun tank, there are missile armored vehicles, and then there are three heavy tractors. Every car passed by, which made the earth groan. In these three tractors, red wolf saw a giant!
The giant lay quietly on the trailer behind the tractor, with a metal body, shining in the midday light to make the red wolf fear. Red wolf put himself dead on the ground, only in this way, it can slightly reduce the fear in the heart.
What it saw was the Knights of the round table in the papal hall, which represented the top technology crystallization of the western continent and made the primitive animal red wolf feel fear instinctively.
Finally, when the team left, red wolf found that he had no strength to stand up. It squatted there for a while, then gasped out of the bush. When it returned to the place where it had killed its prey, the carcass of the Striped sheep had turned into a pool of mud under the tires of the car dragon that it had just passed. The red wolf sobbed a few times, and then bit a few mouthfuls of blood that he could still eat, and left the road.
It came to a hillside not far away from the road, looking from a distance, the motorcade was like a black dragon, winding across the earth, heading south.
It was in the evening that the black dragon stopped.
The motorcade stopped on a plain, occupied a vast highland and set up a temporary camp. The soldiers in the car quickly got out of the car and carried out their own tasks. Soon, sentries appeared around the camp one by one, and teams of five soldiers began to patrol around in case of accidents.
The vehicles were parked neatly and divided into different areas according to the model. Three March tents were set up near three heavy tractors. The three tents are decorated with different patterns, representing the heads of the 2nd, 9th and 11th legions of the order.
Yafidi came out of his tent, glanced at the nearby barracks, and went to Leo's tent of the second Legion. He had been stationed at the port of farcelo and was ordered by the papal chamber to return to Rome. And formed a group army with the second and ninth knights to go to Kanon fortress, to suppress the pirates who captured the fortress.
Oh, by the way, those guys now call themselves "Poseidons.". Yafidi didn't know where they had the courage to confront the papal chamber.
It is true that Kanon fortress has a high strategic value. In addition, the three oil well platforms under its control and the mine factories in three towns of Tucson around it, with a total area of 5600 square kilometers, also make Kanon have a certain economic value.
But all of these can't be the basis for fighting against the papal chamber. Even if there are several high-ranking pirates, yafidi does not think that they can survive the counterattack of the Knights.
Before roar Bay and Fort Canon two battles, the reason why they were able to win, yafidi thought that was the carelessness of the papal hall. Now, for example, they have assembled three army commanders, 25000 soldiers, hundreds of chariots and machine armour. Under such a terrifying combat power, even if the enemy were trapped in Kanon fortress, yafidi believed that even if it was leveled, it would be enough to level the whole fortress.
That's the result of countless deductions, and yafidi believes it.
As for the high-level combat power, the group army now has the strength not to lose to its opponents. They were Leo and frank. When yafidi returned to the papal hall, he found that these two colleagues had both been promoted. Now they are both strong in the Ninth level!
It's just
Yafidi looked at Leo's tent with a complicated look in his eyes.
It seems that Leo and Frank's promotion is unusual. The energy level they are showing now is higher than that of yafidi. But the breath is very rough, and their mastery of power is also very difficult. If you want to describe it, it's like a child carrying a cannon, it seems to be a little powerless.
What worries yafidi even more is the mental state of the two army commanders, who have been in a bad state since their meeting in the papal hall.
Pretty bad!
