Chapter 58 2.16 First Battle (3)

Among the running wolf riders of Hanshui Village, the most embarrassed one was Father Jerome beside Loki. This battle was the first battle in the life of this holy bishop monk.

Like all recruits, he almost vomited his dinner on the ground.

Every recruit who had just stepped onto the battlefield would be deeply shocked by the cruel and primitive bloody scene. Viking hunters killed wild beasts all day long and were used to seeing blood, but Jerome was a pious monk who had just completed his first chicken killing feat two days ago.

"Blessed by the Holy Lord, I voluntarily took up arms to protect the believers under my door. May the Holy Lord protect this heart church standing at the bottom of the wilderness, grant me the divine flame of awakening the world, and burn away the angry heretics."

At the beginning of the battle, Jerome recited a sacred prayer, but in this biting cold wind, the broadsword that used to burn with pale holy flames as long as his consciousness flowed did not have a trace of fire. Jerome looked at his left hand in confusion.

Three days ago, the Lord had promoted him to the Path of Justice, Sequence 4: Light Supervisor! Why couldn't he unleash his divine power when he first joined the battle?

Jerome was puzzled. However, the cavalry of Wind's End, who were rushing towards him, did not intend to give him any time to be dazed. The axe came forward, and the cold killing intent like the violent cold wind made his blood solidify instantly, and he didn't know how to resist at all.

"Lord, forgive me"

At that moment, Jerome could even see his head being smashed by the axe.

At the moment of life and death, the wolf under his crotch saved his life. Although Jerome did not have much actual combat experience, these huge ice wolfs had been fighting with Blood Pigeon Town for a long time. The wolf keenly sensed the danger and turned to dodge, and the axe in the hands of the knight of Fog Duck Town narrowly passed by Jerome's scalp.

At this time, he had just raised his broadsword.

Forward! Forward!

The wolf under his crotch could not understand the English he spoke. In a wolf pack, the wolf knows to follow the leader. However, after entering the melee, the wolf riders of Hanshui Village and the cavalry of Fog Duck Town were mixed together. The wolf riders did not know what the person on their backs was going to do.

Jerome stood there stupidly with the cold broadsword in his hand. He stared at the burning tree not far away and Das Gonk, who was covered in blood under the fire. One arrow after another flew past his ears, and the trees that fell to the ground due to the burning flames would instantly crush a group of people.

All this was exactly the frozen hell in the Pope's volume. And until this moment, he knew what the original face of Scandinavia under the rule of the Vikings looked like.

"Run!"

"Run!"

Several bloody wolf riders of Hanshui Village around him fled from him. When they passed each other, a knight raised his whip and whipped the butt of the wolf under his crotch, which allowed the giant wolf to take Jerome away from the bloody forest.

In the first battle Jerome participated in as a warrior, he didn't slash a single sword or hit a single knife. After watching the whole battle, he started to follow the team in a daze and ran for his life.

"Haha! My priest brother, you can survive such a cruel battle with a loss of nearly 50% of the troops as a new recruit. You can be regarded as a chosen one!"

Loki ran over with both hands holding the reins tightly. Since the battle began, Ge Lin was shot in the calf, and he has been guarding his sister-in-law all the time. It was not until the wolves started running that they remembered Jerome, who had almost no martial arts.

"To be honest, I didn't believe in these strange powers before. But today, seeing that you can survive such a battle, I believe that your Lord Jesus Christ really exists!"

Jerome, who was running against the wind, tried to speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the choking cold wind would pour into his mouth mercilessly. Gritting his teeth and trying his best, he finally uttered the first sentence.

"Village chief, how can we fight the next battle after so many brothers died for no reason?"

"Haha, war, how can there be no deaths? But since we have fought the first battle and still have more than a dozen of us to escape unscathed, it's time to pay back the debt!"

"Clamp the wolf's belly with your legs and kick it hard! The wolf will run faster because those cavalry beasts are chasing us!"

Jerome looked back, but what he saw was a sharp arrow flying towards him!

"We are about to catch up with them! Brothers, work harder!"

"Prepare to change the lasso!"

After a short rest, the tundra stilt horse burst out the last bit of strength in this short charge. Although horses are born with a genetic fear of wolves, when the horses find that there are only a dozen of their companions and the wolf pack is only a dozen, they no longer have any fear in their hearts.

Military horses have undergone thousands of years of special training, and they are born for war.

On the other hand, the galloping wolf. This creature only has the ability of short-range raids, and is not an expert in long-distance raids. After running for several miles, the speed of the wolf riders dropped significantly, while the horses of the Wind's End cavalry steadily caught up. When they rushed out of the coniferous forest, the wolf riders running at the back of the team had even entered the range of the knights' bows and arrows!

However, at this time, they were led by the wolf riders into the snow-filled Snow Grave Valley.

This is a two-kilometer-long narrow valley. There are hot springs in the mountain walls on both sides, so the snow cannot condense on the mountain walls and all falls into the valley below.

After winter, the cold wind will blow the floating snow on the surrounding woodlands and snow-capped mountains into the basin, and even form a huge snow pit with a depth of two meters in the center of the valley.

After entering the Snow Grave Valley, the warg's advantages began to show. The four claws of the warg are four thick flesh pads. Even if you transport a Viking warrior, the wolves can still maintain a running speed that is not too slow in the soft snow.

On the other hand, the cavalry. Compared with the hooves of a tall horse and the claws of a warg, the difference is like an iron rod and an air cushion. After the slender horse's leg stepped into the snow pit, it took all the strength of the whole body to pull it out again. As the wolves retreated, they were getting closer and closer to the center of the Snow Grave Valley. Darth Gonk, who was leading the run, found that it became increasingly difficult for his cavalry to move in waist-deep snow.

The Hanshui Village wolf cavalry not far in front of them was also unable to run fast because of the exhaustion of the galloping wolf.

The cooked duck is right next to your mouth, you can even reach out and grab it. At this time, Das was already furious and had no intention of letting them escape.

"Brothers! They are right in front!"

"The horses that can run run as fast as they can, and the horses that can't run just like me dismount and ride over! Even if we are buried in the snow, the final winner will definitely be us!"

The heavy snow gradually spread from waist level to the chests of the cavalry. Taking a few more steps forward, it was almost up to the neck. Even the cavalry on horseback, including men and horses, were almost completely buried in the two-meter-deep snow pit.

However, at this time, Das was surprised to find that Loki stopped running!

The remaining dozen or so wolf cavalry stood on the heights of the Snow Grave Valley and looked back calmly. Das looked around and found that a group of 200 people had unknowingly reached the center of the Snow Grave Valley!

"The King of Hell told you to die at the third watch, but no one will keep you until the fifth watch!"

After speaking, Loki raised his hand to signal Jerome.

Reciting the scripture silently, Jerome held up a white beam of light in his hands. Seeing the signal sent by the leader in the valley, the Marash father and son waiting on the cliffside lit the black powder that had been arranged on the outside of the scorching mountain wall.

There was a muffled thunder from the sky!

The black gunpowder successfully exploded the exposed rock wall, and at the same time, the scorching hot springs stored in the rock wall spewed out! A fan-shaped waterfall was formed and showered on the knights of Storm's End in the center of Snow Grave Valley.

Das was filled with shock and anger! He turned around and tried to escape, but humans couldn't move quickly in the soft snow that was almost up to their necks.

After taking less than two steps with difficulty, the hot springs spraying from the outer wall of the valley were already pouring over them. The warm water sprinkled on everyone in Wuya Town melted the snow around them, and a lake was briefly formed in the Snow Grave Valley.

It is very comfortable to soak in warm water in the freezing cold of minus 50 degrees. However, the high mountains on both sides of Snow Grave Valley turned this place into a vent on the plain. A fierce cold wind blew through the canyon, and everyone knew that the warm water would turn into ice within 10 minutes.

In time, this narrow valley will become a hell for them all.

"Quick! Mount your horse!"

"Run outside!!!!"

Reaching out to pull the horse beside him, Das realized that the purebred tall horse that he had grown up with had turned into an ice sculpture covered with ice in the cold wind. All the cavalry around them tried hard to wade through the water and try to get out of the lake that was about to freeze. However, as they walked,

They were frozen on the crystal-white ice.
