Casting spells

However, the Night King obviously didn't intend to surrender, so he jumped up and tried to attack again.

But before he threw the ice spear for the second time, the death dragon swooped down, opened its mouth full of fangs, and bit the opponent's head with a click, and extracted a silver spear from the shattered body. The translucent soul swallowed the stomach with enjoyment...

Chapter 985 Night Watchman

The Impassable Great Wall, the last barrier of human civilization in the north of Westeros.

Although the vast majority of people have forgotten how this majestic and tall city wall was built, and what kind of enemies it was used to resist.

Even the Night Watch Corps currently only regards it as a barrier against the wildlings north of the city wall.

It is estimated that in their eyes, those savages who often rush into villages to burn, kill and loot are the most dangerous enemies in this ice and snow land.

No one knew that just when human beings were wasting precious time in endless infighting, deep into the depths of the glacier canyon in the extreme north, a war with a scale of more than hundreds of thousands had just come to an end.

The powerful undead took over the control of thousands of living corpses from the hands of the aliens, and imprisoned those who were willing to surrender, and the necromancers were responsible for the follow-up research work.

These unlucky people didn't realize at all what kind of cruel and painful experiment was waiting for them, and it was hard to say whether they could survive.

After all, necromancers are not kind people, as long as they can get the desired results, they don't care about the life or death of the experimental subjects.

"My lord! According to the information provided by the ghosts, the humans living in the north of the Impassable Great Wall are rapidly gathering, and there are many living giants among them. Do you think you want to launch an attack immediately and wipe them all out?" The death knight in black armor offered to propose.

As one of the very few senior commanders in this army of undead who retained his consciousness during his lifetime, he could clearly feel the hatred for fresh life in his heart.

This is not the negative feelings caused by envy or jealousy, but an instinct and nature that originates from the depths of the soul.

"Chasing? No! This is not what we should do. It is better to let those surrendered ghosts do it. Don't forget, before the master gives the order, our task is to continuously strengthen our strength, not to actively expose ourselves to human sight Within range." Huma shook her head without thinking.

"You mean... Let the White Walkers replace us to test the human reaction?" A hint of surprise appeared on the death knight's pale face.

"That's right! Release half of the White Walkers, and then give them [-] living corpses, let them hunt down the wildlings until the edge of the Great Wall. And we will use this time to digest the fruits of victory. Remember, don't use It is the habit of human beings to measure the undead. We are the messengers of death, and once we appear in front of the living, it means destruction."

After all, Huma plunged the powerful magic sword in his hand into the ice, awakened all the frozen corpses that had been buried under the ice for an unknown number of years, and began to build war machines in an orderly manner, laying a solid foundation for the future. Prepare for a bigger war.

……

Unknowingly, more than half a month has passed, with the Lannister family completely removed from the noble circle, Casterly Rock City was destroyed, Daenerys finally led the army back to King's Landing, and began to learn under the guidance of Zhang Cheng Handle complex government affairs with your own hands.

No one noticed that a stranger had quietly arrived in the cold north.

"Damn it! This ghostly place reminds me of winter in northern Europe." While driving the carriage, Volent quickly pulled the cloak closer, gritted his teeth and complained in a low voice.

Although he has also mastered many magical abilities, he will never use them lightly unless it is absolutely necessary.

As for the reason is very simple, he understands that he is not strong, so wanton display of strength will not bring benefits, but will easily lead to death.

Maintaining humility in front of the strong and maintaining a sense of mystery in front of opponents of the same level is his way of survival.

Fortunately, this painful journey did not last long, and a group of knights in black armor and cloak broke the tranquility.

The leading man circled the carriage in a big circle before shouting loudly, "Who are you? What's the purpose of approaching Castle Black?"

"Hello, dear night watchman ranger. I'm from King's Landing, and I'm a curious traveler. I've heard people talk about the famous night watchman army guarding the Great Wall at the Impassable, and I want to see it with my own eyes." Volent hurriedly Jumping off the carriage, he leaned slightly while touching his chest with one hand.

"Traveler? Are you sure you're not a lunatic?" The leading knight raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of undisguised sarcasm.

You must know that the Night Watchman Legion is no longer the organization that was full of glory from long ago. Almost all the Night Watchmen are either nobles who can't get along, or criminals who have been dispatched.

Even so, there are less than 1000 people left in the entire Night Watchman Legion, and both materials and supplies are pitifully scarce, which can almost be described as a beggar legion.

"Of course not! My spirit is normal! Oh, yes, I also brought gifts to you heroes, a whole carriage of ham and sausages from King's Landing, and five thousand gold coins."

In order to express his sincerity, Volent directly opened the cart pulled by two horses, revealing that it was full of good things.

Especially the light emitted by the gold coins immediately made several guys who had just escaped the status of criminals restless, and even pressed their hands on the hilt of their swords, exchanging wild glances with each other.

The leading knight was undoubtedly aware of this, and immediately drew out his sword and warned loudly: "Fuck me and be honest! If you don't want to die!"

no doubt!

He was quite intimidating to these scumbags who were born as bandits, and just one sentence calmed down the restless emotions.

Although some guys still had strong unwillingness in their eyes, they no longer dared to look straight at the gold coins in the carriage box.

After confirming that the alarm had been lifted, the leading knight finally breathed a sigh of relief, rode to the side of the cart, picked up a gold coin, put it in his mouth and bit it lightly, then laughed happily: "Haha Haha! My God! It's real gold! Well, I'm beginning to believe what you said a little bit now. Come on, I'll take you back to Castle Black, Lord Commander Jeor Mormont will be very happy at this time, Someone sent so much money and meat."

"Thank you very much! It is my greatest honor to be able to get the broadband from His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief." A hint of imperceptible amusement flashed in Volente's eyes, and he drove the carriage again and followed the other party slowly towards the building that looked not far away. A little dilapidated castle marched.

In about 10 minutes or so, a group of people passed through the city gate and entered this one of the few safe places in the border area.

Strictly speaking, Castle Black cannot be regarded as a real castle. Its east, west and south sides are not protected by city walls. Only the north side stands the Impassable Great Wall, and the rest consists of several stone towers and wooden fortresses.

Chapter 986 Night Watchman

"Hey! Come out and see! Colin brought back a stranger!"

"My God! There are so many hams and sausages in the carriage! It's a blessing tonight!"

"Shut up! Idiot! Put the gold back! Stay away from the carriage! Or I won't mind chopping off your hand!"

"Could it be that the princes and nobles in King's Landing finally remembered us poor people and sent someone to send urgently needed military expenses and supplies?"

……

Due to the isolation from the outside world, the night watchmen have endured loneliness and pain that normal people cannot imagine for a long time, so every time they see a stranger, they will be very excited, especially if the other party brings much-needed meat and money.

As the commander-in-chief of the Night Watch Corps, Jeor Mormont hurried out of the tower when he heard the loud shouts outside, and shouted loudly: "Quiet! What happened?"

"Your Excellency! When I was on patrol, I met a stranger. He claimed to be a curious traveler. He wanted to see our Night Watch Legion with his own eyes, and he brought a whole carriage of ham, sausages, and five thousand gleaming gold coins. .” Colin got off his horse and came to the Commander-in-Chief to report in a low voice.

"What? Five thousand gold coins!" Jeor Mormont's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

You must know that not long ago, he sent someone to King's Landing hoping to ask for some military expenses from the newly enthroned Queen, but who knew that he was directly driven back by the Prime Minister and the Minister of Finance, and only gave less than [-] gold coins.

But now, someone is willing to take out five thousand gold coins all at once, which is simply more generous than any king or duke.

In order to confirm the authenticity, this bear-like old man walked quickly to the side of the carriage, ordered his men to count the gold coins piled up in the wooden box, and then bent down and bowed deeply: "Thank you for your generosity." Your donation, stranger. On behalf of all the night watchmen, I would like to express my highest respect to you, you have solved our urgent need."

"Please don't be polite, Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, it is my honor to contribute a small amount to the Night Watch Corps." Volent gave full play to his specialty of talking to people and talking nonsense, and his eyes actually revealed A trace of sincerity.

"Hahahaha! I never thought that in this day and age, there are still people who respect us night watchmen. Bowen Marsh, tell the kitchen to make the dinner richer. We will welcome our friends in the most grand way." Jeo Mormont laughed and gave the Bursar his orders.

After all, with the strong purchasing power of gold coins in the northern border, five thousand is enough to maintain the military expenditure of the Night Watch Corps for a long time.

Soon, under Volent's superb acting skills, the soldiers of the Night Watch Corps gradually let go of their vigilance, held a meeting with their glasses high and drank freely, and gorged on delicious ham and grilled sausages that they couldn't eat on weekdays.

The strong smell of meat reverberated in the noisy hall, and some guys even sang at the top of their voices.
