Throne of the North

In the frozen land, people were coming and going in the city of Winter, in a hurry.

Parker, the newly promoted knight attendant, led a group of people to use wheelbarrows to move pieces of rubble from the east and north of Winter City to the south.

On the way, they met a group of strangers, not from the frozen land, but from Zero Crossing City.

"They are adventurers from the North."

If it was the sheriff who followed the old captain a few months ago, Parker might be nervous, but now, he just calmly put his palm on the hilt of the long sword at his waist, looked at the group of adventurers, and made the group of people on the opposite side unable to walk.

At this time, a man came out with a smile on his face, took out a bag of dried meat and walked forward.

"Mr. Parker, it's me, Downs, we worked together for a while on North Wind Avenue before."

"I didn't expect you to be a knight."

Downs looked at Parker's equipment with envy, as well as the murderous aura that he dared not approach.

"Why are you here?"

Parker loosened his palm on the hilt, and the serious atmosphere in the air disappeared, and asked aloud.

"We were going to hunt orcs, but we haven't encountered any yet, and we heard that orcs have entered Longshan County. We have to go back quickly."

Tangs' eyes were a little sad. His family had been robbed by orcs before, so he mustered up the courage to fight the noble lords 20-80 to hunt orcs and make money.

And now, the orcs are coming again.

"My wife and brothers and sisters are waiting for me. Without me, they can't escape the pursuit of orcs."

"And when the war comes, the baron will definitely ask every family to join the army to resist the orcs. My brother is too young, and they can't even hold a spear."

"The road here is the shortest, and we have no ill intentions."

It is a very serious matter for people from other territories to enter another territory. Both sides will be vigilant and worried. It's just that because the frozen land territory has a good reputation among the adventurers registered in the North Brave Guild, these people dare to take shortcuts.

Otherwise, they will be afraid that they may be captured and used as slaves.

After finishing his story, seeing that Parker's expression had eased and he had no intention of driving them away, Downs became bolder.

"Master Parker, what are you going to do? Do you want our help?"

His tone changed quickly. After Parker became a knight, Downs was no longer equal. He was hunched over and spoke in a humble manner.

"These are stones for building tombs."

Parker refused to let these people get close and told them to leave quickly. If they stayed too long, they would be killed by patrolling knights.

Building tombs?

These adventurers in the North were not very courageous, otherwise they would not have encountered orcs in this North full of orcs. When they walked all the way over, they were also horrified to see the graves that were simply built with rubble on the hillside and with cross stakes inserted on them.

"There are so many."

"How can there be too many? These graves have no names. Under each grave, there may be three, five, or ten people buried."

"The baron said that if the people of the frozen land want to pay tribute to their relatives, then come here. They are the heroes who saved the entire frozen land and are the closest people to everyone."

Next to him, a farmer was fiddling with vines to make a path in the wild. When he saw these people, he thought they were the people of the frozen land. He reacted and looked at the swords and became alert.

"We will leave now."

Tangs smiled and said that he had no ill intentions. After leaving here, Tangs couldn't help but take a deep breath and exhale.

"I don't know if I will die on the battlefield this time when I go back."

"If I can survive, I will promise my daughter to let her marry the Gonzalez family as she wishes, even though two men in their family have died."

"If I die, my body should not be found, and I can't recognize it even if I find it. I hope that I can be buried in a place like this."

Tang Si looked back enviously. He could feel that the people of the frozen land territory were different from those of other noble territories. They were not like him, who would shout Mr. Parker in the last second and turn into Mr. Parker with a smile in the next second.

He has adapted to it and is used to it. He can't change it.

Every adventurer in the North should be able to feel the difference of the frozen land territory.

How to say it, Tang Si scratched his head. He was not smart and had no knowledge. After thinking for a long time, he could only come up with a more spirited description.

The people of the frozen land territory are more spirited than them.

"Hurry, hurry! We must deliver this log to Rhino Horn Mountain before the sun sets!"

"This is a gift from the carpenters to Lord Bogeld. We can't let the armored bears find it at night."

In the forest, a dozen men were carrying a huge log and running fast. The man in front shouted loudly.

"Hahaha, Zalun, please stop talking. You didn't eat lunch today."

"Call me brother-in-law, and I'll raise your shoulders a little higher, okay?"

"Don't even think about it!"

"Everyone knows that I, Zalun, am naturally strong. I can run with this log without you."

"But you couldn't even carry Montoya in the tavern, hahaha, and you still don't admit that she is too fat."

Someone shouted at the back, making the man in front blush.

"My family lives next to Bucks Street. I've known for a long time that you, this guy, must have wanted to ask the master carpenter to leave some scraps for you, and wanted to use them to coax Montoya."

"..."

Amidst the laughter, Tang Si felt that he had a toothache and left the place with the others quickly.

Entering the swamp, there are also a large number of people here, not only the people of the Tundra Territory, but also people from Lingdu City. They are digging the mud. At this time, the mud in the swamp is frozen and stiff. It will be quite big if you dig it. Only in the pit can you see the dark swamp mud.

"This doesn't seem like something you would see in a war."

In the crowd, someone finally couldn't help but speak out, which resonated with others.

It was almost dusk now, but they felt that these people of the Tundra Territory were more like the newborn sun, with the radiance of the morning light shining down.

"The morning light is short-lived, but the light is eternal, and they are like this today."

"It will still be the same tomorrow."

"It was the same yesterday."

"Can we be like them?"

"When the war is over, we can be like them."

Rumble.

Iron hoofs ran wildly in the stiff swamp, and a group of knights from the Tundra Territory quickly headed towards Lingdu City.

By the time Tang Si and others entered Lingdu City, the knights' lecture had ended.

"What are they going to do?"

"Recruit an army. Soon, Baron Ryan will lead the army of the Tundra Territory to the west to fight against the werewolf army of the Silver Moon King's Court."

The news quickly spread throughout Lingdu City, and countless people rushed to tell it. Before long, the entire Lingdu City was boiling.

"Great, Lord Lane will defeat the orcs again, and our territory will be saved."

"Woo hoo, I want to stay here and go attack the orcs with Baron Lane. My child is only one year old."

Downs and the surrounding compatriots hugged each other excitedly. The moment the news came out, they felt that there would no longer be a possibility of failure. Their family would not be trampled or killed by orcs. Hanging on the tree.

They never doubt whether Baron Lane has the possibility of failure. In these people's hearts, Lane's victory is like the sun that never sets.

When Tang Si and others left Lingdu City and hurried back to their own territory, they all felt that their steps were a little lighter. At this moment, they finally understood the spirit of the people in the Tundra Territory.

difficulty? despair? In front of Baron Lane, all this will disappear, and what will be brought about will be a better tomorrow.

They couldn't wait to spread the good news back to their homes, tell their relatives, friends, and noble lords.

With joy on their faces, they believed that survival was not a miracle that they needed to pray to the gods.

…

Poof!

A werewolf sneezed and stretched out his thick-haired arm to wipe the corners of his mouth, but this action made his appearance even more ferocious and terrifying.

Dropping Downs' body in his hands, the werewolf cursed angrily.

"This human's blood is too cold. Damn it. I have only been in this land for a long time, and I am already not used to the blood that has been frozen in the north."

"I never want to go back."

Bang! A huge claw fell next to it.

"I told you to keep them, and you ate them!?"

A loud voice came, and immediately behind the tall werewolf, a dozen humans shivered, as if they had been stripped naked and thrown into the snow in the cold winter.

They are so frightened that they cannot escape.

These people never thought that werewolves had appeared in such a hinterland.

What has the war turned into? Why are werewolves already appearing on the edge of Lingdu County, but what about other places?

These people did not dare to continue thinking. They looked at Downs's body. The latter's expression had stiffened muscles of fear, his face was pale, and the blood all over his body had been eaten by the werewolf, which seemed to have caused the werewolf slight discomfort.

"We want to occupy this land. We never want to go back to the cold north."

"If you don't want to be thrown into the north to starve, then let them live - at least half of them."

The burly werewolf had a loud voice. He came from Jiage. Today, there are three or two big cats in the Jiage clan, but they are still stronger than ordinary werewolves.

"Why keep humans alive?"

The werewolf was puzzled, and then received another slap.

"I don't understand anything. Werewolves are intelligent, as smart as humans, but you are so stupid."

The werewolf of the Garg clan pointed at the corpse on the ground.

"What are you going to eat if he's dead?"

"I can eat the blood of other humans."

"It's your turn!?"

The werewolf of the Garg clan slapped the werewolf to the ground, and blood spread all over the floor.

"Keep humans alive, humans will continue to give birth to new humans, and then we will have endless blood, just like those damn vampires."

"But after humans die, you will have to go to the north to hunt prey soon. You can't eat those prey yet."

"Also, humans can help us build houses that can withstand the cold. Can you build a house?"

The werewolves of the Garg clan enjoyed looking at the shocking eyes around them, but when this scene fell into the eyes of humans, those pale green eyes looked extremely terrifying.

"Is what they just said true?"

In the crowd, a thin young man trembled and asked in a low voice.

No one responded to him, but gradually, the people around him found that this guy stopped shaking and his skin was actually a little hot when touched.

"I don't want my child to be food for werewolves. He is only one year old. My wife just gave birth to him before I left home."

"I don't want to, I don't want to, I don't want to!!!"

The young man trembled. He had experienced too little of the world, and it was because of this that his emotions made his body tremble again, but this time, he was no longer afraid of the werewolf in front of him.

But the future of his wife and children.

"Forgive me, I can't go back."

The young man roared, pushed the person in front of him away, took out an iron dagger from his waist, and rushed towards the werewolf of the Gag clan frantically.

The sharp edge of the dagger seeped blood. The young man raised his head and found that the werewolf looked back, and his eyes were staring at him faintly. The next moment, a huge force of smashing stones came, and the young man flew out, and the dagger fell beside him.

Enduring the pain in his body, the young man struggled to stand up, picked up the dagger and rushed towards the nearest werewolf.

After several times, the werewolves around became angry and bared their teeth, but the majesty of the werewolves of the Gag clan suppressed their nature.

"Damn it, kill this human!"

The werewolves of the Gag clan spoke, and the werewolves around no longer hesitated, and they all let out loud wolf howls, looking at the young man with bloodthirsty eyes.

"Ah--"

The crowd surged, and these adventurers who had the courage to go to the North finally burst out their inner fear at this moment, turned it into anger, and killed the werewolves.

"Kill these damn orcs! Kill them!"

"Even if we only have teeth left, we must bite them to death!"

"Revenge for Downs!"

"Don't even think about eating my son!"

The humans madly poured all the weapons they had on the werewolves.

However, there were a lot of werewolves here, and each of them was stronger than them. After the weapons were confiscated, the daggers hidden on their bodies were not enough to threaten the werewolves.

One by one, humans were killed by bloodthirsty werewolves, and the number of humans standing on the battlefield was getting smaller and smaller.

When the last human fell, a sharp arrow flashed in his eyes.

The arrow passed through the sky and pierced the werewolf's head. Then there was a slight roar from the ground. The cavalry from the frozen land arrived, wielding the knight's lance and piercing the werewolves one by one.

"I came here when I heard the sound, but I didn't expect to be a step late."

General Mikael's voice under the mask was helpless. It was a luxury for these ordinary people to hold on until the reinforcements arrived when facing the werewolves of the six royal families.

"General, what should we do with these people?"

Parker behind him asked. He recognized these people, but didn't say more.

"The surrounding noble territories have all been attacked. These people should be fleeing. I don't know which noble family they belong to. Hey, let others collect the bodies and bury them in the cemetery after cremation."

"Although I don't know whose territories they are, at least we saw them fighting with the orcs, and they were not afraid even at the last moment."

"They are warriors."

Mikael turned his horse's head, a little regretful, these people would have been the best warriors.

There are not many people in the whole North Wind Province who are not afraid of werewolves.

Behind him, Parker silently glanced at the body of Downs in the center of the battlefield. He mourned for him and was lucky that he was a member of the frozen land.

"Kill!"

Michael's roaring voice woke Parker up. He came to his senses and found that there was another wolf pack in front of him, chasing a group of soldiers.

"Damn werewolves!"

Seeing someone fall under the wolf's claws, Parker drew out the knight's sword angrily and rushed over there.

On the battlefield, the soldiers were afraid and fell. They were originally the power to protect others, but at this moment they didn't know who to seek for protection.

"Will the great and immortal God of Light save our souls?"

The soldiers said in fear, but the next moment, the iron hoof of the tall northern warhorse flew over his head and trampled the werewolf under his feet, and then the knight's sword beheaded the werewolf's head.

"Light can't save you."

Michael pulled down his armor, and the long sword kept slashing, revealing the cold night.

When all the werewolves in front of him died, Mikael pointed his sword at the defeated soldiers.

"Soldiers, pick up your weapons and fight back!"

"Tell the light you prayed for that you don't need His salvation yet."

In the face of strong pressure, the soldier still gritted his teeth. With so many knights present, he picked up the courage to fight against the werewolves.

"Kill!"

The spear pierced through the werewolf's abdomen, and then one spear after another stabbed over. The soldiers pushed the werewolf out enthusiastically, and then pulled out the spears and kept stabbing.

At the same time, the cavalrymen around Mikael were ready.

"Charge--"

"Attack!"

The cavalry trampled forward in a row. Faced with such a force, the werewolves were also defeated in an instant.

"Clear the surroundings, and never allow these werewolves to approach Zero Crossing City before the Baron assembles the army!"
