Riding and Slashing

West side of Lion Lake City.

A devilish war horse slowly walked to the foot of Lion Lake City.

The horse was covered in pitch-black heavy armor, but it was obviously not a living thing - its eyes emitted a strange red light, and there were two curved horns on its head.

This is a demon army horse. Since it is covered with horse armor, it looks no different from the undead horse that Li Ang saw when he was dealing with the fear army at the seaside.

But the 'man' on horseback, let's say it is a person, after all, it looks like a person... It is not a decayed undead, but more like a bloody corpse that has just lost its flesh and blood.

It also looks a bit like a fallen person, but it is taller and more terrifying. Its head is almost completely devoid of flesh and blood, revealing white and red cheekbones, and two big eyeballs are looking around.

He wore a set of dark red and black armor, and held a shimmering tomahawk in his hand.

This set of equipment looks very unusual, anyone can tell at a glance that this is the leader of the fallen army.

"The Devourer!"

Lord Vidis had heard of this image.

And then, he regretted a little - he shouldn't have thrown those rogue knights and members of the underworld who were making trouble in Lion Lake City out of the city.

Right now, there was a black mist around the Devourer's body.

Accompanied by the black mist, there was an incomprehensible whisper. It might be some kind of spell. Just listening to it from a distance would make people feel upset.

The black mist gradually lingered, covering the scoundrels who broke their legs and were screaming.

Afterwards, those scoundrels began to howl in pain while tearing themselves apart frantically!

After seeing this kind of scene, most people may have nightmares for a long time-these more than 100 rogues used a cruel method in a thin black mist to tear their flesh and clothing together piece by piece. shredded.

Start with the head, scalp... eyelids... face, neck...

And then the torso and limbs...

Where the fingers scratched, the skin and flesh were separated, bloody and bloody.

They tore slowly, as if they were slicing themselves, tearing piece by piece, picking off piece by piece.

The blood rain fell along with their skin and flesh, turning the open space outside the city into a mess.

Before long, the rascals ripped off all the skin from their bodies, including the soles of their feet.

They...or rather, they have become brand new fallen ones.

Like the devourer, they stared at the living people on the city wall with big, naked eyeballs.

There were more than 100 scoundrels who made trouble, and Vidis threw them out of the city, which was equivalent to adding more than 100 troops to the Devourer...

King Vidis swallowed with some difficulty.

He is now the only person on the wall who remains calm.

The Fierdsway fighters around him, together with the leader of 'The Shield' Haakon, were vomiting non-stop.

Perhaps these Fierdsway fighters were thugs who killed without blinking an eye, but no matter how hard they killed, they have never seen a tragedy where hundreds of people massacred themselves...

The Devourer stared at Vidis for a few moments, then turned and left, and the black mist also left with it.

The disturbing whispers also went away with the Devourer and the black mist around it at the same time.

In the distance, terrible howls and wailing sounds continued...

That is, there are other living people who have been transformed into fallen ones!
The wailing that came from afar made the Fierdsway fighters in the city keep recalling the horrific scene they had seen before, their eyes were full of horror and despair.

As the black mist and whispers continued to wander, the wailing sound gradually spread to the entire surrounding area of ​​Lion Lake City, and it may be heard within a radius of tens of miles.

"Your Majesty, someone from the south shot a letter with a bow and arrow... What's wrong with you? Are you vomiting?"

At this moment, Earl 'Chahu' Airy found King Vidis with a piece of crumpled kraft paper, and then looked at Lord Haakon and the soldiers on the city wall with a strange look.

The Fildsweans seldom vomit, except when they drink too much, because they don't get seasick.

'Fork Hoo' Allie was a hunky blond man with a long beard that covered his neck completely.

The long and dense thick beard is easy to tie his neck uncomfortable, so he used a silver buckle to part the beard on the left and right of the chin, which is the source of his nickname.

This is typical of the Vanskerry - bearded and 'styled', which is what they see as masculine fashion and a sign of strength.

Vidis is also a handsome macho, he also has a beard, and the beard can cover his neck - for the big guy from Vance Carey, the beard covering the neck is the starting price, They feel that those who cannot cover their necks are 'immature brats' and cannot be entrusted with important responsibilities.

And at this moment, except for Vidis, almost all the Vaskari beards have a lot of vomit residues on their beards...

The leader of 'Strong Shield' Haakon wiped his mouth and said with lingering fear: "Chahu, you didn't see it just now...it was a nightmare!"

"I think this letter is a nightmare! Your Majesty, this is a letter from Li Ang from the Lion Kingdom..."

Earl Airy handed the letter to Vidis.

"To King Vidis: I'm sorry, I have to lead you to Lion Lake City to face all this, because apart from this way, I can't make you believe me and send troops to support Lion Lake City... You should be able to see that What is this horrible monster doing, it's turning all of humanity into degenerates. And I'm sure it's in a coercive way of bringing souls to their knees. I don't want to be like that, and I don't think you should either... …So, I hope to join hands with Fieldsway to bring it back to its rightful place. As for the dispute between our two countries, I promise that the Kingdom of Sarleon will fight against Fieldsway until this terrible monster is killed. Cho is innocent, and your friends of Gondor and the Earl of Aydin will make sure of that.—Greetings, Leon Griffin, Duke of Long River."

This is the content of the letter, written by Li Ang himself.

At the end of the letter, in addition to Leon's griffin coat of arms, there is another coat of arms - Gondor's Neptune Trident.

This means that when Leon wrote this letter, Gondor was by his side.

Maybe Gondor fell into the hands of Li Ang, maybe he cooperated with Li Ang.

But in any case, Vidis doesn't believe that Gondor will betray him, that is to say, the promise in Li Ang's letter that "Qiu is innocent" may be true.

The three looked at each other in silence.

"The person who shot this letter into the city seems to be a Noldor elf. He shot an arrow on a fast horse and ran away in the direction of Payne Village. Most of the fallen are slow-moving, and they seem to be unable to stop the light cavalry."

Earl Airy was very smart to speak first, avoiding Vidis asking about the specific process.

Well, the light cavalry cannot be stopped, but the problem is that Fieldsway's troops in Lion Lake City have no cavalry...

Only these three lords had horses.

Moreover, many of the fallen army are riding horses, but there are not many of them.

Those horses were also bloody monster horses with no skin all over their bodies.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now? The brothers are all infantry. I'm afraid it will be difficult to confront that monster head-on..."

Haakon asked hesitantly.

"Find a braver warrior, ride my horse out of the city, go to Payne and ask Leon what he plans to do! You...send someone to ride your horse, go to Fox Town and Kaine Castle separately, All our troops are recruited..."

Vidis gritted his teeth and tore up the letter: "We have no choice!"

……

Penn Village.

"...My lord, I think that what we saw in the north of Dawn Furnace City was 'Wolf of Omen' Wolfbird."

The largest manor in Payne Village has been transformed into a military camp. Li Ang met An Dongjia who had just rushed over in the military camp.

An Dongjia brought a knight from Ravencrow Realm—or escorted, because this knight named Kelvin was tightly bound.

"No, that's not the 'Wolf of Omen'... Maybe it should be called the 'Slayer'! That's not the legendary incarnation of the god Vijovis, but a monster through and through! It's not just They are attacking the Ravencrow Realm, and they are still slaughtering you Misty Mountain people!"

Kelvin shook his head, still opposing An Dongjia's statement.

Kelvin is a member of the Ravenspear Knights. He wanders around Dawnforge City all year round, leading a small army and is good at guerrilla warfare.

This guy is very familiar with the slave traders of the Red Brotherhood in Ravencrow Realm. His main business is to capture the Misty Hillmen and sell them to slave traders.

This can also be regarded as the traditional business of many knight orders in Ravencrow Realm.

Not long ago, he crossed the Misty Mountain, intending to find some 'goods' in the ice field of the Misty Mountain.

Unfortunately, his team was almost wiped out - he encountered a bloodthirsty monster who was indiscriminately slaughtering Gospur Village, a village in the ice field north of Dawnfurnace City.

Fortunately, this guy was a good rider, and ran away with a few of his men in a panic, but they were really unlucky, before they could escape back to Xiaolu City, they ran into An Dongjia again.

An Dongjia was cooperating with Ursula at that time. At that time, he brought a large number of people near Xiaolu City and ran into a few wild Ravencrow Knights. They must be caught.

Then An Dongjia learned about the Bear Claw Tribe who had a grudge against her—it was absurd to say that a Misty Mountain Man got news about another tribe by relying on a Ravenclaw Knight who was fleeing for his life...

Kelvin told An Dongjia that the plundering team of the Bear Claw tribe was in the village of Gosbul, north of Xiaolu City, but they were facing a massacre, and the massacre was carried out by a monster.

So An Dongjia took a look from a distance - she wasn't there to rescue, she wanted to see if she would make trouble...

Then she saw the monster, she thought it was Wolfbird, the wolf of omens, the messenger of the god Vijovis, and she didn't intend to fight against the god.

But Kelvin believed that it was a monster from Ravensland, and now it has become a bloodthirsty devil.

An Dongjia wasn't sure what it was, but whether it was a god or a demon, it was impossible for An Dongjia to ask directly face to face, so she tied Kelvin away.

"Once in a while, the Wolf of Omen does kill some people who disobey him. I heard from my father...but maybe this is also the will of God Vijovis. However, it seems that the incarnation of God is indeed a bit tyrannical this time. "

An Dongjia shrugged: "So I take away those who are willing to follow me, so as not to cause misunderstandings——I'm not sure that in the eyes of God Vijovis, those who have learned Pendor and lived in Ravencrow all year round Are people still considered Misty Mountain people?"

"No, Ms. An Dongjia, that is definitely not your god! I know Misty Mountain... I have also heard the rumors about the Wolf of Omens, but what that thug did is completely inconsistent with the rumors..."

Kelvin was still emphasizing with An Dongjia.

"Yes, so you can come here alive..."

An Dongjia nodded, expressing her agreement with Kelvin, then turned her head to Li Ang and said, "My lord, I only saw it from a distance, but this guy has had direct contact with the incarnation of God. Misty Mountain and Ravencrow The situation...is really a big situation right now."

Li Ang sighed and nodded: "This seems to have happened at the same time as the discovery of heresy in Lion Lake City... An Dongjia, is the wolf of omen really the incarnation of the god Vyjovis?"

"It is indeed... But in our legend, the wolf of omen is the chosen messenger sent by the gods to make the Misty Mountain people survive..."

An Dongjia nodded and said.

The Misty Mountain Tribe is the people favored by the god Vijovis.

For the people of the Misty Mountains, if a shaman sees the god Vyjovis in the form of a lynx or a snow leopard, it is a symbol of auspicious omen, indicating that the tribes in the Misty Mountains are thriving.

But if the Misty Mountain people have come to a dead end and the tribe is fragmented, the god Vyjovis will send his incarnation in the world—"Wolf of Omen" Wolf Bird to lead the tribes of the Misty Mountain.

As the messenger of God's Chosen, Wolfbird will appear in the howling of wolves, and then he will quickly unite the Misty Mountain tribe in a short period of time, and regain the original place of the god Vyjovis, which is the Kingdom of Ravens Northern lands and ice fields.

In the legends and records of the Misty Mountain, this envoy has appeared several times, but according to the rumors, it will not deliberately kill the people of the Misty Mountain, but will take over the leadership of the tribes in the Misty Mountain with a powerful and swift gesture. Right - sure, there's usually a kill in the process, but that's just for a quick fix.

Cruel killings usually occur in Ravencrow Realm—Wolf Bird will select elites from various tribes to attack the land of Ravencrow Realm, and in the process, allow the Misty Mountain people to obtain a large number of survival resources and continue to restore the Misty Mountain Strength.

More than 150 years ago, the Ravencrow Kingdom was established because the people of the Ravencrow Realm united to repel the "Wolf of Omen" Wolf Bird and the Misty Mountain army led by it.

But, but.

According to all the legends and records, Wolf Bird appeared in winter, and when the Misty Mountain people had disputes within themselves and powerful enemies outside, they basically could not survive and were facing the crisis of genocide.

That is to say, no matter in the legends or records, for the Misty Mountain people, Wolf Bird always appears as a "God's Chosen Hero", which represents that the Misty Mountain will be resurrected from the Jedi!

However, it's not winter now, it's summer when it's easiest to find resources, and the Misty Mountain people are not in danger of genocide...

And Wolf Bird who appeared this time also did not match the rumors.

"An Dongjia, Kelvin, what do you mean to say that Wolf Bird appeared when it shouldn't, and it is massacring the Misty Mountain people?"

Li Ang asked.

"My lord, it's not just that... I'm from the Knights of the Ravenspear, and the so-called Wolf Bird I saw looked very similar to a traitor from our Knights..."

Kelvin said to Leon: "He is seven feet tall (two meters one), with two eyes, one is black and the other is blue-this is exactly the same as 'Sir Raven' Boris!"
