Working Prophet.

Chapter 619

Being suddenly engulfed by the weird beam of light, even General Jerome had fought in the battlefield all his life and killed countless enemies, so at this moment, he was also in a state of panic.

He couldn't even move his feet, and just stood there blankly, as if being choked by an invisible hand.

Then he was thrown to the ground by Aragorn, who shouted, "Protect the general!"

The other dwarf warriors came back to their senses and rushed over one after another.

They raised the shields in their hands, pulled out the battle axes around their waists, and kept slashing and howling at the beam of light, as if they wanted to scare their opponents away in this way.

However, no matter how fierce their actions were, the beam of light remained motionless.

A dwarf warlock thought of something at this time, and said excitedly, "This, this must be... the call of the gods!
"Only the most heroic heroes will be chosen to go to the kingdom of God full of ale and flowers, General Jerome, this is Setter's recognition of you!"

Jerome is still in the circle at the moment, and he subconsciously said, "But I still want to lead the army to fight for the kingdom, how can I go to the Kingdom of God now?"

"It doesn't matter, you can pray to Settlet and ask it to recruit you after you die."

However, before the warlock finished speaking, there was another shout of killing outside the camp, and the dwarf warriors on the outermost perimeter seemed to have fought some enemy.

Jerome's heart sank immediately, and he had gradually regained his sobriety at the moment, and he no longer believed what the warlock said was a call from Settlet.

Even if there was a real shortage of people at Settlet, there was no reason to burn their food and grass first.

Jerome's first reaction was that the Imperials were calling.

After all, the only ones who could pose a slight threat to them in this mountain were those imperial people, but the news that came back from the front not long after made his head confused again.

Because those dwarf soldiers said that the opponent was a group of humanoid monsters with colorful eyes and glowing light that they had never seen before.

When he heard the news, Jerome almost thought that he hadn't woken up yet, and all this was just a dream of his.

Otherwise, within a short period of time, there was another bolide, another white beam of light, and another luminous monster that suddenly appeared.

These are too bizarre.

However, Jerome secretly pinched his thigh, and the pain was very real.And the sound of killing in his ears was getting closer and closer to him.

Those monsters were menacing.

The dwarves can only fight in a hurry, many people have no time to wear armor, and the weapons can only be used for what they can get.

And most people, like Jerome, were quite frightened by these sudden visions, so once they got their hands on it, they would not be able to resist for a long time before they would start to fail.

As the commander of this army, Jerome certainly understands how dangerous this situation is. He wants to reorganize the soldiers who are fighting independently in different places and restore their combat effectiveness.

But it was not easy to do this even during the day, and now it was night, and Jerome couldn't even find a messenger.

He told Aragorn to call the other officers.However, Aragorn turned around and didn't see many officers, but he gathered two or three hundred soldiers and said to Jerome when he came back.

"General, the enemy is coming soon. Let's retreat. Prince Ollie's side has not been attacked. We can escort you back to his side first, and wait for the manpower to be reorganized before fighting those monsters."

Jerome looked around. In the darkness, he couldn't see exactly what happened, but the screams and howls one after another were almost all from the dwarves.

And Jerome noticed that the beams of light in the sky were still moving, and every time they moved to a place, it would not be long before they would be attacked there.

At this time, Jerome didn't know where the white beams of light came from.

But even if he saw this, there was nothing he could do. After all, he could fight the enemy, but facing these beams of light that he had never seen before, Jerome didn't know what to do to defeat them.

This made the dwarf general very frustrated.

At this time, Aragorn also noticed that Jerome's current mood seemed a little abnormal.

But he didn't have time to persuade him anymore, because although they dragged Jerome out of the suspicious beam of light, they were still very close to it.

Always in danger, he winked at two of his men.Ask them to hold up Jerome one after the other, and put the dwarf general on his horse.

After that, Aragorn led people to escort Jerome all the way to retreat to the west side of the camp.

As he said before, it has not been attacked by those monsters for the time being, and it is relatively safe, which can also give them time to reorganize the army.

Halfway through the journey, Jerome finally came back to his senses, and said in a hoarse voice, "Gather those savages together, we can't just let our soldiers die, as allies, they also have to fight those monsters. "

Aragorn nodded, and sent one of his men to inform the leaders of the wildling tribes.

The rest continued to escort Jerome until they met Prince Ollie.

Jerome actually didn't like the middle-aged man in front of him who always had a hearty smile, because he knew very well the reason why the dwarf king sent Ollie here.

It was simply because of his outstanding achievements these years that Herley was a little worried about him, so he sent his younger brother to monitor him.

This time the dwarf kingdom dispatched 8000 troops, but Jerome could only command about 1 people, and there were [-] people who mainly obeyed Ollie's orders.

Jerome was a little dissatisfied with this arrangement before, but now he feels a little lucky instead.

Due to the enemy's sudden attack at night and the cooperation of various strange celestial phenomena, Jerome suffered heavy losses when he was caught off guard. More importantly, he lost his command, and his troops became chaotic.

Jerome and Aragon have been gathering remnants along the way, but they have only gathered less than 2000 people.

On the other hand, although Ollie was also taken aback, but with the time they bought, at least everyone is almost here now.

Jerome nodded at Ollie. Even if he had greeted him, he immediately went straight to the topic without thinking about the greetings.

"We were attacked by someone. It is not clear who the attacker is, but judging from the speed at which they advanced, the number of people should not be particularly large. As long as we bring people back now, we can regain the initiative."

Oli's face no longer had the usual smile, and he looked very serious, "General Giant, are you sure this is not a trap?"

"What do you mean?" Jerome was taken aback for a moment, and then felt a little annoyed, "It's such a time, are you still planning to continue fighting with me?"

"It's not infighting," Oli shook his head. "The main night battle is not something we are good at. I think we should try our best to hold on until dawn."
