The king on the Great Wall

Page 155

"I've ordered it a few times, but it still won't light!"

"Stop beeping, we can all hear you! Follow the plan, Bomb! Get all the Bombs here!"

There are no more ghouls rushing into the fire to die. The tide-like army of dead people poured in from the gaps in the fire wall that were opened by magic one by one, surrounded by the vanguard corpse elephants and corpse giants, and smashed into it firmly. to the gate.

Rumble!

It took a midnight effort to add a new door closure that was built during the day and withstood the test.In the sound of impact that seemed to make the ground tremble, although the door panel was smashed and knocked off quickly, the solid support behind the door, which was built of mud and stone, and watered and frozen, firmly supported the inwardly skewed door panel. .The corpse elephants and corpse giants smashed all the bones of the head and shoulders and failed to make a gap. Finally, under the command of the Night King, they changed their approach... They squatted down on the spot, built a ladder of flesh and blood, and helped the rest of the corpses quickly Created a passage to the top of the wall!

The fire could not be ignited, and the ghouls shot by the dragon crystal arrows just rolled down and fell to the foot of the wall, instead of being burned to slag and roasted to ashes and reduced in size-their corpses that fell into the corner reinforced the slope The passage, the wall is less than ten meters high, even if the defenders immediately block it with explosive bombs according to the plan, it will only delay the speed of "slope building"... In just a few minutes, the walls of the three city gates were destroyed by ghouls. The slope of flesh and blood was forcibly piled up, and the fast troops such as corpse wolves and bears who had been waiting in the rear immediately went up the slope and rushed to the top of the wall.

With the huge advantage in numbers, soon...the frontline defenders who were facing the gap in the firewall roared and were overwhelmed by the ghouls.

If they were next to the Great Wall of Desperation, the defenders should withdraw their troops at this moment, abandon the wall and retreat to the climbing stairs, and escape to the top of the ice wall.But Houguan Town was built in the wilderness in the center of the land grant. Although the inner fort wall in the center is a little taller and thicker than the outer wall...but it is just a fragile small rock in front of the sea of ​​corpses, and the defenders have no way to retreat , had no choice but to go forward and kill the enemy one after another, counting on the reserve team that immediately entered the battle and the reinforcements who came from the unoccupied section along the wall to recapture the gap through a bloody battle, and continue to hold on until the enemy's magic power is exhausted. Until the wildfire is suppressed!

Houguan Town is a town whose scale far exceeds that of any purely military fortress along the Great Wall. Because of its huge area, it is easy for the commander to hold all the reserves in his hands. unable to rush to the designated location for support".Therefore, Iger established three lower-level headquarters in the city that are distributed in an equilateral triangle with each other, each holding a reserve team with considerable numbers and combat effectiveness, including giants, and equipped with two to three people who are qualified to use "" The sharpshooters of "Bright Messenger" are respectively in charge of one-third of the long wall, and form the solid and reliable second and third insurance with the core Houguan Town Inner Fort.

No one expected that the second insurance would be triggered less than 10 minutes after the start of the battle, but the commanders carefully selected by Eiger faithfully performed their duties, and they responded correctly at the first moment when the city wall part fell : Send a large group of reinforcements to the point where the wall was climbed up, and together with the frontline defenders who came from both sides, launched a siege from three directions to the ghouls who climbed the wall, vowing to kill these ghosts Chase down the high walls of Houcrown.

The defense plan is operating correctly and perfectly like a brand-new and precise mechanical watch. Every step of the enemy's operation must be dealt with by plan 1, plan 2 or plan 3... until plan n.There will only be "unexpected" situations on the battlefield, and there will never be "unplanned" situations... But only Iger knows clearly: when wildfire, the biggest reliance on dealing with the sea of ​​ghouls, is facing selective failure, even if the defense The plan can work perfectly from beginning to end, until the final chapters of "Battle of the Inner Fortress" and "A Last Stand for the Command Hall", even if every single dragon crystal bomb in the entire Houguan Town can kill a hundred corpses. Ghosts, this war will eventually end with the ghouls completely drowning themselves.

Iger extremely hates personal heroism, Jedi counterattacks, and bloody plots of winning in danger. Influenced and influenced by familiar culture, he prefers to bully others uprightly and win with a crushing posture, without giving the enemy any illusions and opportunities .But the cold magic shown by the enemy after the war shattered his good wishes, and the ghosts finally forced him to the point where he had to adopt the last plan.

The only hope of victory right now is to kill the Night King with these two "Dragon Steel Explosive Bombs" that cost an average of ten "Lightbringers" each, and kill the Night King with his own hands like a true Prophet's Son. Destined Rival", to end this war.

However, at this moment, the fulfillment of the prophecy encountered a problem:

At the moment when the enemy began to attack the city, Melisandre instantly sensed the precise positions of the eight spellcasting enemies. Unfortunately, according to her, none of the eight spellcasting sources were particularly different from or better than the other seven. One is more powerful, and most of them are just ordinary ghosts... And none of these eight ghosts is outside the northwest wall where I personally sit at this moment.

Is the Green Prophet Bran deceiving everyone or giving wrong information because of his limited ability?

Or is it because he is the son of prophecy, so he can hit the target without knowing the exact location of the Night King?

Or is it the most likely—the enemy hides in the vast sea of ​​ghouls outside the wall for their own safety, so that they have nowhere to find and no way to attack?

-

Chapter 433 Armageddon?

"Ghouls have crossed the outer wall in the east, south, and north directions. The battle has extended from the top of the wall to the residential area." Joey was brought by Iger's side without hesitation--to shoulder the mission of sniping the Night King.But right now the target is nowhere to be seen, and they who were supposed to play the role of heroes suddenly became deaf ears—a display. "If the commander-in-chief allows, why don't the two of us take the 'Lightbringer' to the place of distress to help the battle, and relieve the pressure on the brothers of the Night Watch?"

"Without my guidance, can you find the White Walkers?" Melisandre couldn't hide her eagerness even though she forced her cold and unhurried tone. She looked seriously at the Son of Prophecy she was assisting, " Didn't the Lord of Light give you any new instructions? Should I stay here until the Night King appears, or should I help the defenders deal with other White Walkers who may invade the city?"

Iger took a deep breath and turned to the side without answering Melisandre's question: "Earl Beric, Your Excellency Soros, please lead a team of two adults to escort Angai and Theon to the city with the Lightbringer to help Harvey, immediately go back to the inner castle to convey my order: let Bran use crows to guide all the archers with dragon steel arrows to where the White Walkers are, if they dare to break into Houcrown Town!" Now, letting the only Red God priest who can accurately locate the enemy chieftain to deal with ordinary White Walkers is completely just to stop the boiling water. Although it can restore some decline in a short period of time, it will not help the overall situation at all.The only way out now is to stick to the original plan and try to destroy the Night King!

"Melisandre, don't you have any magical means, can you find the Night King directly?"

"There is indeed a method of active detection to find living things. But firstly, this kind of spell is aimed at living people and is not suitable for use in the sea of ​​people. Secondly... if the enemy who actively detects is more powerful than me, he can completely hide the past. , and even harm me in reverse with my detection magic!"

"Then what's the idea to lure him out? Last time you cast a spell in Castle Black to fuel the fire and attracted the attacks of the White Walkers, can you repeat the same trick and take the initiative to expose your position to lure the Night King to attack you?"

In theory, of course it is possible, but this is undoubtedly a risk of the life of the leader. If the person concerned volunteers, it is naturally no problem, how can others suggest it?

Of course, it's not that Iger doesn't even understand this bit of human sophistication, but it's a pity that he doesn't know magic, so he can't be the hero.Fortunately, mutual trust between him and Melisandre has been established, and the red-robed woman will not take this abrupt proposal as an offense or wish her to die... Not to mention, if she sacrifices one of them, R'hllor will win the battle. Throughout the war, as a loyal servant, she dared to jump into the sea of ​​corpses without saying a word.

"But, what should I do to induce the Night King to attack me? Also, if I succeed, I must not be killed by him in one blow, so that I can tell you where he is!"

"Shield!" Iger shouted loudly, and asked the soldiers who stayed around to fetch the thick wooden shields to block the arrows, erected them in a row in front of him for comfort, and then began to think seriously, "Of course not It’s just a random spell, but it must make the Night King feel threatened or pressured. Tonight, the ghouls didn’t keep sending them to the fire to die, which means that the enemy has begun to value the value of the basic units they control. Can you What kind of powerful magic can be used to eliminate a considerable number of ghouls and force the Night King to take action?"

"Powerful magic?" Melisandre shook her head helplessly. She really hates explaining the common sense of magic to laymen. Unfortunately, the person in front of her is the Son of Prophecy. "Magic is not what you imagined. Contact Sexual spellcasting is usually easy, but it is much more difficult even if it is in the air... The consumption of magic power and the difficulty of casting spells will increase exponentially with the increase of distance. It is not difficult to kill dozens or hundreds of ghouls at once, as long as you are willing to spend magic power ——But it has to be when I have close contact with the ghouls. Now your little prophet said that the Night King is in the northwest, but the ghouls in the northwest did not attack the wall, and wanted to deal with the ghouls standing tens or hundreds of meters away. The ghouls outside the wall of fire, if they can burn a few to death, it will be as good as the sky, such a loss, I am afraid it will be difficult to arouse the anger and counterattack of any enemy!"

Iger honestly admitted that when he mentioned "powerful magic", what he had in mind was the spectacular types that can only be seen in games and film and television works such as "Meteorites Falling from the Sky" and "Fire Burning".Obviously, such a low-magic world can't support such spells—he, who knows nothing about it, can only choose to believe what Melisandre said... After shutting his mouth and thinking hard for a while, a flash of lightning suddenly cut through his thoughts fog.

"Remember what you did to my sword?"

The witch's blank expression showed that she didn't keep up with her train of thought: "What?"

"It's the time when you secretly attached dozens of powerful light spells to my sword without my consent, and almost blinded my eyes..."

"I remember, why, your eyes are not good yet?"

"Good morning. What I want to ask is——you later said that dragon steel is a carrier of magic power that is far superior to ordinary steel. Then, can you do the same on the arrow of Lightbringer, making it extremely bright? "

"Of course, a higher-quality magic carrier means that it will only be easier to do so, and the effect will be excellent. What do you think?"

"Lightbringer on, and I shoot in the direction of the Night King."

"Trying luck?" Melisandre was dazed: "Is there something wrong with you? There is only so little left, and you still waste it?"

In order to boost the morale of the soldiers and civilians along the Great Wall, Iger sent 77 light emissaries to various fortresses. Last night...to be precise, another 30 were consumed by making a temporary decision to make Longsteel explosive bombs in the early morning of this morning. Now there are only more than 20 Lightbringers left, and more than [-] are assigned to the sharpshooters of the reserve teams. A few more were taken away by An Gai and Sean just now, and Iger still has five in his hand... Melisanne It is no exaggeration for Zhuo to say "there is only so much left".

Of course, he didn't expect to hit the Night King by lighting up the Lightbringer, but he wanted to show his power in this way, provoke the enemy by the way, and provoke the Night King to take a shot to expose his position!

Enemies are magical creatures with no emotion, and under normal circumstances, Iger would not move his mind to the strange direction of "provoking them".But now the situation forced him to play some unusual tricks: after all, the White Walkers were not simple machines but complex creatures.And as long as it is a living being—with high intelligence at the same time, it is impossible to truly think without emotion and rationality!

Whether it was my successful anti-killing with a dragon crystal dagger based on the white ghost's carelessness a few years ago, or the fact that Ma Qiluo led a group of soldiers in East China Sea Watch and successfully sniped two white ghosts who chose to fight against him because of their killing intent. , have unquestionably confirmed this point.

This trick is at least [-] to [-]% sure it will work!

"I am the commander-in-chief and the son of prophecy, do as I say!" The situation on the battlefield changed rapidly, and Iger had no time to explain his plan in detail, so he could only pick up the yew wood longbow with one hand, and draw out a longbow with an unknown number in the other. The dragon steel arrow pointed at Melisandre and handed it under her eyelids: "Enchanting! I only want it to shine for a moment, but before it hits the ground, the brighter the better!"

Melisandre stopped arguing, but held the body of the arrow with both hands, pressed her index finger and middle finger on the arrowhead, lowered her head and closed her eyes, and after silently reciting a few incantations, the dragon steel arrowhead suddenly lit up like a high-power LED light suddenly energized , so that all the soldiers on the section of the wall where they were located looked sideways, and had to turn their faces away to avoid hurting their eyes.

A similar effect has also appeared on Egger's ordinary stainless steel long sword, but that time Melisandre was able to create it with the help of the huge amount of magic released by the cremation of Aemon Targaryen's corpse. The brightness is terrifying, but this time, the witch only cast the spell once, and it was already too bright to gaze at - the reason for this is that the magic was released on the extremely demon-friendly dragon steel, and it was set It is set to "use up all the energy within half a minute", this magic light bulb is close to the extreme in terms of efficiency and power!

As if holding a military searchlight, Iger still had to squint his eyes to avoid being stabbed by the light from the arrow, even though he had turned his face away. After holding the frighteningly bright Lightbringer in his hand for a second, Iger turned his face Put it on the string, open the bow as hard as possible at an angle of nearly 40°, let go towards the northwest direction you feel, and shoot this large group of rays of light at the ghouls in the distance with a bang.

……

The shining "Bright Messenger · 64" passed over the height of 30 meters above the Ghoul Sea outside the wall, as if the shaft of an arrow was holding a full moon, and the bright white light shed showed the densely packed people waiting in place underneath. The head of the ghoul... After flying aimlessly over a distance of nearly 200 meters, it fell into the distant edge of the sea of ​​corpses. Only the body of the White Walker finally stopped.

Even in the abdomen of the fallen ghoul, it still radiates the light of magic power strong and proudly, shining faintly in the sea of ​​corpses.

***

Even the gods cannot use inexhaustible magic power. Precisely creating a low-temperature field to disable human wildfires is indeed effective tactically, but there is a moment when they cannot continue to maintain it.After finding that it was impossible to destroy the human line of defense within a short window period and broke through Houguan Town in one fell swoop, the Night King temporarily changed his order: let the different ghosts who cast spells take advantage of the chaos to cross the wall among the ghouls and venture into the city. Support war with war, "develop offline" while creating damage and casualties, rely on the internal flowering method, bypass the hard shell of the city wall defenders, and take down the town while minimizing the loss of puppets.

As the White Walkers in charge of containing the wildfire crossed the wall and entered Houguan Town one by one and stopped casting spells, the wall of fire that was finally able to ignite suddenly lit up and completed the defensive circle. Blowing up the wild fire jars that were overturned on the top of the wall during the previous bloody battle, the top of the wall that was almost sunk was also ignited. The blazing flames wrapped up the slopes made of flesh and blood by the ghouls and the corpses of both sides who died in the gap battle. In the light and heat - it not only prevents the defenders from getting close to recovering the lost city wall, but also prevents the foreign aid of the ghosts and ghosts who have already entered the city.

Coincidentally, this scene happened less than ten seconds after Iger shot the Lightbringer.

The defenders on the entire northwest wall saw this spectacular scene. They didn't know that it was a provocative shot by Iger in desperate circumstances. They only saw: the commander-in-chief at the end of the battle At a tense moment, a large ball of dazzling light was fired into the sea of ​​ghouls in the distance like a miracle, and the enemy hit fell to the ground in response, and then—a billowing yellow-green light burst out of the gap in the wall of fire that had never been ignited. flame.

"I don't know the strength" and the herd effect played an unexpectedly positive role at this moment. It was obviously still in a crisis, but the wall surrounding Houguan Town... actually sounded like a wave of inspiring roars and victorious victories. cheer.

……

Accompanied by this burst of unexplainable cheers, the giant Wang Wang smashed a corpse wolf to pieces.

Since the width of the wall is not enough to expand the formation to take advantage of numbers, the counterattack and explosive bombs of the defenders are also very powerful. The ghouls who passed through the gap in the fire wall before failed to continue to expand the victory on the wall. They intended to kill and injure civilians. Instead of fighting with the frontline humans, they chose to jump off the wall and attack Houguan Town.

Then they collided with the second line of defense soldiers who had been waiting not far from the wall.

Living giants have low intelligence, slow movements, and extremely poor endurance, unable to adapt to training, marching, and protracted warfare. Although they look scary, anyone who wants to turn them into soldiers as a trump card will definitely be disappointed.But in the defensive battle of fixed positions, they can play a miraculous effect: in the pre-war arrangement, dozens of adult giants have been organized with the newly gifted landmen soldiers and evenly arranged around each command branch. Once the outer wall enters the city, it can be used immediately.

At this moment, the giant Wangwang who was placed in the middle of the intersection was firmly blocked at the intersection like a sculpture that could move and attack. Together with the soldiers around him, the ignited roadblocks and the roof... together they formed an attackable It can be defended, and the defense line that combines active and passive defenses has firmly blocked the intention of the ghouls who jumped from the wall to attack the center of Houguan Town.

The IQ similar to that of eight or nine-year-old children enables the giants to identify the enemy and the enemy. The thick cloth or animal fur covering them allows them to resist the damage of ordinary ghouls. Their thick, long and powerful arms like battering rams make them reliable. weapons.Even without dragonglass equipment, giants can easily make even fully armed ghouls lose their fighting power in an instant.Surrounding these reliable big guys, the human soldiers on the second line of defense only need to use dragon crystal spears to repair the ghouls that are constantly being smashed and torn by giants. It was much easier for the front-line soldiers who fought bloody battles to regain the gap on the wall.

However, more and more ghouls poured in along the streets, and the soldiers finally had to join the battle instead of just picking up the leaks, but in general, the giants still shared most of the pressure... Just when they were also sent by the wall Inspired by the thoughtless cheers of the ghouls, when the fighting spirit was high, a pale and agile individual suddenly jumped out of the crowd of ghouls, and slammed into the giant's arms.

Wang Wang, who was bumped into a stumble, let out a roar like thunder. After stabilizing his figure, he immediately retracted his arms and clasped the enemy in front of his chest with both hands. He was about to squeeze and crush the enemy as usual, but found The pale little man was as hard as iron for some reason, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't hurt him at all. He was about to throw it to let the dwarf humans around him find a way to deal with it, but there was a stabbing pain in his chest, and a sharp pain. The intense chill that he had never experienced before quickly spread to his whole body, quickly flooding his brain, making his eyes go black, and he fell back and hit the ground with a loud bang.

Only then did the pale being who had flung himself into the giant's arms calmly stand up from the huge fallen corpse, pulled out the translucent long sword stuck in the center of the latter's chest, and moved it with an obvious gesture like the corpse. The ghost looked at the remaining humans with brighter blue eyes.

"White ghosts!"

The soldier who recognized the enemy's identity first screamed, shot a dragon crystal arrow, and then fled to the next intersection - their group was not equipped with dragon steel arrows that could pierce the ice armor of the aliens In the face of such a powerful enemy with no possibility of victory, it is natural to retreat decisively to the headquarters with the "Bright Messenger" to protect itself!

This is not an escape, but part of the plan!

The White Walker mocked the fleeing human defenders with a sharp voice, and instead of ordering the ghouls to pursue them, they made them form a circle around themselves to protect them.

The wall of fire has been completely formed, and the wall has also been retaken by the defenders.Now, the eight ghosts and thousands of ghouls who have entered Houguan Town have to rely on their own strength to break through the situation.

I was lucky, I met a giant as soon as I came in, after transforming it into a puppet, one can be used for dozens of puppets, and it can also be used to block arrows at critical moments, it is perfect!

Surrounded by the surrounding ghouls, the White Walker put his hand on the giant corpse that had begun to cool down, and began to inject the little cold magic power left, preparing to wake up this big guy and let him stay with him in the future There was a lot of trouble in Guan Town.

The bigger the creature, the more cold magic power it needs to transform into an undead puppet... But in general, the extra magic power is worth the money.But as the energy slowly seeped into the giant's body, the White Walker was surprised to find that there was a large amount of fire-attribute magic power in this big guy for some reason, and the cold magic power he injected was completely neutralized like a mud cow into the sea Lost.Consuming a pass of magic power in vain, but it turned out to be useless work!

what happened?

It's not entirely impossible for this to happen, and it would happen if the source of the corpse was a magical creature—whether born or nurtured.Typical examples are: magic dragons, R'hllor's lackeys, those weird guys who are connected to trees all day long, etc... as long as the residual magic power in their bodies is dispelled first, then the cold magic power is injected into them to transform them into puppets, which are magical creatures in life When it exists, it will become an extremely powerful ghoul.

However, how could a common giant have magic power of fire attribute in his body?

Shocked, the White Walker immediately turned to another human corpse beside him to repeat the same trick, only to find that the exact same thing happened!

With a click, the strange ghost, who has never known what to be afraid of, felt fear for the first time in the face of this unheard of strange situation. If his magic power is almost exhausted, if he still loses the ability to transform the killed enemy into a puppet, Then in Houguan Town, surrounded by powerful enemies and full of artifacts, wouldn't he become a super soldier who can be slaughtered?

-

Chapter 434 Armageddon?

The White Walkers couldn't figure it out even if they tried their best. The fire-attributed magical power in the body of the fallen defender was neither the miracle of R'hllor nor the magic of the Green Prophet, but only came from a project that Houguan Town started implementing today. The feasibility is unknown, and it is purely a temporary operation.

After receiving battle reports from various places on the front line in the early hours of the morning, the headquarters used the newly obtained information to make a series of decisions. During the discussion, the clerk and staff member Keben suddenly brought up a mysterious topic: since the dragon crystal can kill ghouls, then stuffing this substance in the body in advance can realize "I kill myself", that is— —After dying in battle and being resurrected as a ghoul, how about killing the "other self" directly with the dragon crystal in the body?

Undoubtedly, this kind of magical brain-hole discussion is more suitable to appear after tea and dinner, rather than such tense moments and serious occasions in the general command room after the decisive battle has broken out, but this idea that touched the dead end of thinking immediately aroused Iger interest of.

The enemies, which cannot be explained by common sense, use a lot of inconceivable means to rampage inside the solid defense line carefully prepared by the night watchmen. At this moment, of course, we cannot stick to normal thinking!

It is naturally impossible to expel chrysanthemums for all soldiers and civilians or to force-fill dragon crystals with surgery, but there is an easier way to let obsidian enter the human body: swallow it!

The only casting workshop still in operation in the industrial area, after completing the manufacture of the "Dragon Steel Explosive Bomb", immediately replaced it with manpower, and used obsidian to melt and cast a large number of pearl-sized glass beads. Distributed to all soldiers and civilians, including the army, and forced everyone to swallow it before the war.

This kind of round and edgeless little thing enters the body through the esophagus and basically does not cause any harm to people. After completing a round of digestion, it will be excreted as it is... The only disadvantage of this solution is that it cannot be fixed in the body, but obviously, It wouldn't take more than an hour to storm a stronghold with the White Walkers, and it was impossible for anyone with a healthy stomach to pull it out before the battle was over.

Contrary to the idea of ​​the proposer of the plan: the actual effect of swallowing the dragon crystal is not "killing the resurrected ghouls", but directly hindering the operation of cold magic.Dealing with this trick is actually very simple-either spend some time disemboweling the obsidian beads from the stomachs of the dead one by one, or spend more energy to neutralize the fire attribute magic power in the obsidian first Drop it, and then continue the ghoul transformation spell.

However, whether it is time or magic power, they are precious resources that the White Walkers are lacking now that the Great Wall has not been broken and dragons are rushing to the battlefield!

The White Walker reported the strange situation to the Night King in shock, and got the news that the fleeing soldiers came from the headquarters, and the soldiers of the human hunting brigade, carrying dragon crystal bombs and dragon steel arrows, looked murderous. The sound of footsteps has already sounded from a street outside.

***

I thought that Houguan Town was a piece of fat that could be easily obtained, but who thought it was a fat warrior who was fully armed and nimble after fighting. There is indeed fat, but it is extremely difficult to eat it!

Even when the cold magic was used at the beginning of the game, the casualties of the ghouls continued to rise in a straight line from dozens to hundreds... and soon broke through [-] and went straight to [-], the growth rate completely exceeded that of the night. Wang originally expected.

However, although the casualties were heavy, as long as they did not exceed the total number of living people in this town that could be converted into a source of soldiers, the battle would be considered a good one.Considering that there are still a lot of giants hiding in the wall, it can even be said to be profitable.

As an intelligent creature, the meaning of the Night King's existence is not just to be the strongest White Walker, but to try to deal with and restrain when living people resort to means to resist.

What he plays is actually the same as Iger's role in the Night Watch Corps - decision maker and guide!

The defense line of the Grand Canyon, the deicing of East China Sea Watch, the day and night patrols at the top of the Great Wall, wildfires, explosive bombs, various dragon crystal weapons... The preparations made by mankind for this war are beyond imagination, but the Night King still performs his duties, one by one Countermeasures and solutions were conceived and implemented.Only the Dragon Steel Arrow, an unprecedented divine tool that is both indestructible and full of magic power, racked his brains, and only came up with a 100% safe way to deal with it, that is: hide yourself and stay behind this kind of arrow out of range.

Strictly implementing this idea, when Melisandre cast a spell to attach the first powerful light spell to the dragon steel arrow in Iger's hand a moment ago, revealing his position, the Night King remained unmoved and continued to hide silently. In the sea of ​​ghouls far away from the city wall, he sneered and stared at the enemies in the distance who were racking their brains to lure him to appear.

The first shining Lightbringer flew across the sky and fell into the ghouls not far from the Night King.

To be honest: a Red God priest is quite a weighty bait, and killing the last green prophet in the world is even more enjoyable... Even after careful perception, the Night King found that the person who shot the arrow was not an unknown person, but Carrying a familiar and rare aura—the mark of Hanshen's old enemy!

It's really a narrow road to the enemy, that is the night watchman who caused the first White Walker casualty in the Ghost Forest a few years ago!

Even though so many temptations were packed into a pile and put in front of him... In order to accomplish the greater cause of the Han God, the Night King still held back the desire to act.

However, as the second dragon steel arrow that radiated a strong light hit the ground again, the subordinates of the other ghosts who entered the city reported to themselves the incredible situation they encountered, and the meaning of this battle was immediately questioned : Only by relying on magic can it be possible to capture Houguan Town with relatively small battle damage, and only by ending the battle as soon as possible can the Long Night Fort be taken down before the dragon returns to join the battle... But if this wall is broken, it will take a lot of time or It takes a lot of mana to transform the "infusion" defenders in this city into ghouls, so what's the point of deviated from the original plan to attack this town first?

Suddenly, the Night King suddenly understood the reason why the opponent continued to throw dragon steel arrows "meaninglessly" in his direction.

In addition to trying to lure himself to behead him, this move also has the meaning of demonstration and showing off-the enemy wants to send such a message by wasting this magical weapon that can destroy the priest of the cold god: They have as many weapons as they want, and the priests they sent into the city have already fallen into a trap, and they are doomed!

Abandoning the Great Wall to attack this human town was a huge mistake in decision-making. Taking advantage of the fact that the casualties of the ghouls are not too serious, it is the best choice to immediately stop the attack and turn to other more valuable targets.However, the eight priests who had been sent into the wall now became the biggest difficulty in withdrawing troops.

Every cold god priest is a precious resource. The night king can control ghouls inexhaustibly. He can't just give up two-thirds of his subordinates casually. Otherwise, even if he gets Victory, and then go south to attack the remaining human world, it will still be difficult.

We must try to cover them, and let the eight priests break out from the wall of Houguan Town again!

Repeatedly, again and again, the night king made a bad move, and the Ye Wang, who became angry from embarrassment, finally became murderous.He raised his ice spear, aimed it at the wall, hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and lowered it: In case of having to deal with dragons in the future, this kind of magic weapon condensed from the body is still the only choice, not right now. Because of anger, he used this last card to deal with a mere mortal's chance.

He handed the ice spear back to the subordinate priest beside him, and then picked up a fist-sized stone at his feet.

There is no precision in projecting an attack with a non-streamlined weapon at such a long distance, but the advantage is that even if the position is exposed, there is no need to worry about the threat of magic arrows from humans.

Aiming at the positions of the Red God priest and the first priest killer, the Night King gathered all his strength and threw the stone in his hand... and at the same time issued an order for the entire army to attack.

***

Throwing stones is not considered spellcasting in any sense, but as life forms that exist completely supported by magic power, whether it is the White Walker or the Night King—even the muscles are woven by magic power, they must be It will leak magic power, and it is this slight energy fluctuation that makes Melisandre aware of the enemy's movements in an instant.

"Squat down!"
