Kara and I were already on our way to opening my new class or improving the old one. We walked along a wall that was made of pure white stone, I still don’t know where they got it from, really, where do they get it from? and on the other hand, from the wall they were completely identical, wooden houses with one floor and a roof similar to a triangle.
We soon had to reach the northern gate, usually it is through the northern gate that the order or some other merchants or caravans, or just travelers, come to us. Usually they leave through the southern gates, rarely use the western and eastern ones, I don’t know why, probably rarely does anyone need to go west or east.
When we reached the northern gate, the gate was open, and everyone was running back and forth along the way, what was happening behind the gate? the gates themselves were stone, also pure white, they were raised with the help of special rudders, I honestly don’t know how it works, and they were lowered in the same way.
Lyova, wait here, I’ll go and see what’s happening outside the gate, what if you need my help? - Kara said, already moving away from me, approaching the gate.
I wanted to wait for Kara first, but I was also very curious about what was happening outside the gate, so I still decided to go to the gate too. I just thought that if Karen needed help there, then maybe mine would be useful too. I hope they won’t scold me too much later.
I approached the northern gate and finally saw what was happening there.
The first thing that caught my eye was a huge white snake with a pale purple crystal in its forehead, and the second was the cart that it held in its coils and squeezed it.
I know that all monsters have crystals, thanks to which we determine their ranks, corresponding to our class. For example, for 1 monster with a pale gray crystal, you need 100 people with the pale gray class, that is, a low class, or 10 people with normal classes, with white. but unlike monsters, people can have 9 classes, so we can be much stronger than a monster, for example, if 1 person has 2 classes, even if they are low, then it may well wait for reinforcements or run along the way, well, it depends on the situation , in which the person is located.

As I watched this battle unfold, I noticed that not far from the white snake's tail there were 2 girls who seemed to be about my age. They ran in the opposite direction of the snake's tail to avoid it. I called on my bow, intending to try to hit the tail of the snake in order to somehow distract him a little while the girls ran. Yes, only at that moment I realized that hitting a moving target is much more difficult than just hitting a standing tree. I missed 5 times before I even slightly touched the tail of the white snake.
While I was trying to get into the tail of the snake, the girls had already run away to a safe distance from the tail. Well, I guess my efforts to help these girls were useless, well at least they escaped, which is good.
While I was thinking about my uselessness, in this situation, a wolf suddenly jumped out from somewhere. The wolf grabbed the snake’s muzzle directly, and at the same moment a woman with white hair and bright red eyes appeared on the snake’s head. Looking at the woman, I immediately realized that she was clearly a vampire. While the wolf was snarling at the snake's face, the vampire woman aimed directly at the crystal in the snake's forehead. The snake seemed to sense that its crystal was being targeted and began to squirm even more, trying to throw itself, the wolf and the vampire woman off. It seems that the wolf could not resist the actions of the snake and fell to the ground, while the vampire woman simply jumped off the snake. It seems that the snake realized that it could not cope here, and decided to crawl back into the forest, hissing threateningly at all the people around it.
The moment the snake disappeared from sight, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to help the victims. It was at that moment that Kara noticed me standing at the north gate, clearly with a frown on my face. well, this look clearly hinted that a big and long lecture awaited me.
