Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 46: Kill the man or the dog?
Millian looked around and quickly spoke up to stop the endless quarrel between his two oldest brothers once the topic was brought up... He certainly didn't like Alex either. After all, the atmosphere of their adventure group had obviously changed since that kid came.

The base that used to be lively and bustling, where brothers could enter anywhere freely and talk about anything, has become a different place because of that guy's existence.

But the reason why Million was able to advance to a swordsman was because of his sufficiently focused willpower.

He knew very well that the most important thing now was the wave of evil ice and snow believers that were clearly blocking their way.

So, he asked the key question directly: "What did Brother Yuri buy?"

"Oh... everyone take a thermos bottle first." Yuri took out a number of exquisite small medicine bottles from his pocket and handed them to the team members.

"Oh?" Seven quickly figured out the purpose of these small bottles. "Can they keep the temperature around you at 18 degrees? How long can it last?"

"The little baron said 72 hours," Yuri replied quickly, "If it doesn't work, just throw it into boiling water for an hour."

Then he dug out a lot of small sticks and distributed them.

Yuri held up the one in his hand and said solemnly, “It contains unstable burning jade.

So, once you open it, you have to throw it away immediately, okay?
It will explode, and the damage will be comparable to that of an exploding fireball."

The few people who were holding the tree sticks and stroking them curiously shuddered all over and immediately held them steadily above their heads.

"Don't be stupid!" Yuri said unhappily, "As long as you don't tear open the silver seal on the top, it won't explode. Otherwise, how could I dare to stuff so many into my dimensional bag at once!"

"The young baron has only been learning magic for four years, right?" Leon carefully stuffed the few sticks he was given into his dimensional pocket, and said in awe, "You can actually play with it in such a fancy way!
No wonder they say he has top-notch mage talent, and no wonder... he sent out the palace's chief mage."

"What I wonder is why he keeps playing with fire?" Seven asked after he put away his share.

"Who knows?" Yuri said casually, and took out a few exquisite crystal boxes from the dimensional bag.

"Oh my god~ Yuri, how much does this cost!" Leon was shocked.

Yuri rolled his eyes: "Shut up! Let me think about what the little baron said!"

"Can you hurry up?" Miriam whispered. "I vaguely heard a dog barking."

The knights who had been watching them talking with smiles on their faces moved quickly, forming a diamond formation with Leon as the marking point, surrounding the two spell professionals in the middle.

Of course they knew what the dog Milian mentioned was... an ice dog, a magical creature created by evil magic.

It is said that the thing is a close relative of the hellhound, its bite is extremely painful, and it can also emit icy breath.

Of course, the most troublesome thing is that you can smell the human scent from thousands of meters away.

Those who were standing in position also placed the thermos bottle on their chests.

A single ice dog is not that scary, after all, it has the negative effect of being vulnerable to fire.

But if there are more than 5 of these things, a cold area will be formed, causing everyone in this area to suffer from hypothermia.

However, the Little Baron's Thermos Bottle is just the antidote for this kind of territory.

"So, it's better to be prepared!" Yuri muttered, and put the crystal boxes very carefully into the pocket of his robe.

"They are coming." The other swordsman who had been patrolling at the end of the team suddenly raised his head, "Seven, there is no need to be silent, sing!" Seven's fingers slid quickly on the lyre, and the rapidly flowing notes rolled out a piece of music.

Four buffs, namely, avoid detection, calm the mind, move freely and be immune to fear effects, were quickly added to the entire group.

"Your chanting speed seems to have increased a lot." Yuri, who also took out his scroll and began to cast auxiliary spells, said affirmatively.

"Then I have to thank the young baron for teaching me the new epic singing method." Seven replied calmly, "Although it is still unfamiliar, it is indeed a regular musical rule. I have just started to learn it, and I can shorten the chanting speed by one third.

If I am not mistaken, he should have a very comprehensive set of musical instruments that are completely different from the traditional ones, and the number of them is very large. "

"I understand." Yuri nodded.

The shadow of a scroll appeared above the battle formation... That was Yuri, the scholar,'s understanding and judgment of the impending enemy.

As long as it is the correct understanding written in the scroll, the person protected by the scroll's shadow can get a bonus to the attack on the enemy. The more detailed and accurate the judgment, the greater the bonus.

Of course, he can also exempt his companions from some damage when they are attacked by recorded skills.

Therefore, how strong the profession of scholar is depends entirely on one's own learning ability.

A scholar like Yuri, who can unfold the phantom scroll with a few chants, could never be trained by an adventure group... His knowledge attribute must be strong enough to directly become the archbishop of the God of Knowledge.

So, when the cultist who rushed out from a distance with a group of ice dogs saw the Tiger Blade Adventure Group who were ready for battle, he hesitated.

They thought they were dealing with an adventure team organized by a knight manor owner, but what emerged was a tiger that could devour them all.

However, their hesitation was soon ended by the howling of the ice dog leader.

"There are evil priests who can communicate with the ice dogs over long distances." Yuri said quickly, "We ran straight into their base camp!"

"Then let's fight!" Leon, who was standing at the front, raised the shield in his left hand, with the huge heavy sword across the middle of the shield. "Should we kill the man first or the dog first?"

"Dog!" Yuri said decisively, "Not the biggest one, but the one with a blue back and a scar on the left cheek."

"Okay!" Leon shouted softly, and the members of the team who had a tacit understanding with him followed him and rushed towards the enemy in front with the same rhythm.

"Ow!"

"what!"

After a few screams, the two groups that were fighting each other passed each other directly, leaving behind only a dog corpse with its head chopped off and two cultists who were covered in scars and half-dead.

Some of the Tiger Blades were also injured... Although they were hiding behind those knights, the two swordsmen who had to send part of their bodies out of the protection circle whenever they attacked the enemy were bitten several times.

Fortunately, Seven had already prepared a set of scales for quick treatment, and his and Yuri's previous preparations were not in vain.

The cultists, who had suffered heavy losses right after the battle began, simply released a cloud of white mist into the sky.

"They're calling for help, what should we do?" Millian asked bluntly.
