Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory

Chapter 399 The first confrontation

When Lynd returned to Castle Black, Stannis had just left and went with Mance Rayder to arrange the garrison location of the free folk soldiers.

Samwell Tarly and Jon Snow, who stayed behind, led the people of Castle Black to the cleared playground of Castle Black to welcome Lynd's arrival.

When they saw Linde taking sisters Ella and Yala off the dragon's back, they couldn't help but froze, because this was the first time they saw a person with two heads.

Although they were shocked and curious in their hearts, they did not show too many strange looks, because after all, this woman was brought by Linde, and she came riding a dragon with Linde. Her identity must be unusual, and she might be another one. A character like Melisandre.

The moment Ella and Yara saw the Great Wall, they were completely attracted by it. Their eyes were always looking at the Great Wall. Not only was the magic power on their bodies not suppressed by the Great Wall, it actually shrank regularly, as if they were It's the same as the magic dialogue in the Great Wall.

"I saw them using their own Great Wall as a node. Isn't it painful for them to do so?" Ella and Yara couldn't help but curiously asked as they followed Linde and entered the Black Castle.

After hearing this, Linde stopped, turned to look at her, and said, "Can you see Vilas and the others?"

"Yeah." Ella and Yara said in unison.

Linde looked at the towering Great Wall of Impasse and said, "That is their mission. You may find it painful, but they may enjoy it."

The group of people came to the meeting hall of Castle Black, and Sam handed the compiled documents to Lind for review.

The content of the file is very simple. It is the Ranger outpost reporting the advancing position of the zombie wave and the layout of personnel and materials at each defense point.

Lind checked it twice, and after finding no flaws, he put the document aside and asked Sam, "I heard that a ranger saw an ice dragon appearing outside the wall?"

"Yes," Sam replied: "The outpost located in the middle reaches of the Milk River, when we retreated to Gray Guards Castle, we saw an ice dragon flying out of the Fang of Frost and Snow, flying towards the east. But the white dragon on the east side was The ice dragon was not seen at several outposts in the Shucun, Custer Fortress and Antler River areas. Some people suspected that the rangers had mistakenly mistook the clouds on the top of the mountain for the ice dragon."

"It's possible for one person to be wrong, but the chance for a group of people to be wrong is not high." Linde shook his head and said, "Have all the outposts outside the Great Wall been withdrawn?"

"Yes." Sam nodded and said: "Now all the reconnaissance outside the wall is handed over to the skinchangers of the free people tribe. The Commander-in-Chief has organized all these skinchangers together, led by Jojen Reed. , specifically responsible for investigating the situation outside the Great Wall."

It is obvious that Stannis, who is proficient in positional warfare and defensive warfare, has perfectly laid out the Great Wall of Despair. In this regard, Lind is not as good as Stannis and has not found any modifications and adjustments.

At this time, Melisandre, who had just returned from Ice Scar City, Benero, the high priest of the Red Temple of Volantis, and other red-robed monks came to the meeting hall to meet Lind.

"Your Majesty, we hope to participate more in this battle." After meeting Lind, High Priest Benero couldn't wait to put forward his idea before Melisandre could speak.

"Didn't Stannis arrange for you Hands of Holy Fire to join the defense mission?" Lind frowned, picked up the document next to him, looked at it, and said, "Didn't he already arrange for you to be responsible for the defense of a section of the Frost Snow Mountain Castle's Great Wall? ?"

"What I mean is that we hope to participate more in the battle." Benero quickly explained: "Only in this way can we gain the favor of the Lord of Light and be able to..."

Lind raised his hand to interrupt Benero's words and said in a deep voice: "To be more specific, how do you want to join the battle more? It is impossible for me to directly dispatch your warriors of the Holy Fire Hand to the north of the Great Wall to face the White Walkers directly. With a ghoul, right?”

Benero wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Melisandre. She motioned to the soldier on the side to take out an ordinary arrow, then put it in her hand and prayed silently for a while, and then saw the arrow emerging. A ball of flame, this flame wrapped the arrowhead, but did not ignite the wooden arrow shaft. It seemed like this ball of flame was an illusion.

But Lind knew very well that this was not an illusion. Even if he did not turn on his special vision, he could still clearly feel the power emanating from the flame on the arrow, and he also knew very well what kind of power that power had on the White Walkers or corpses. Effect.

At this time, Ella and Yara seemed to be curious about the flames on the arrows, and stretched out their hands to touch them.

"Be careful!" Melisandre immediately warned, but soon she realized that her reminder was unnecessary. Ella and Yara stretched their hands into the flames and did not receive any burns at all, as if the flames did not exist.

This scene not only surprised Melisandre, but also the high priest Benello and the red-robed monks were shocked.

They didn't see much strangeness when they saw the two-headed man standing next to Linde. Although the two-headed man was very rare, they had seen it before, and they had even seen people with more deformities, so they I'm just curious as to why Linde would have a deformed person around.

And now they are both shocked and very curious about Ella and Yara, because they know very well what the flame on the arrow is, and they have to be careful even when they come into contact with the flame. Now Ella and Yala Ra actually extended his hand completely into the flame without suffering any damage, which made them wonder how Ella and Yala did it.

Linde did not try to help Melisandre and others, but directly asked: "How many of you can create this kind of flame?"

"Everyone, every red-robed monk can do it." Melisandre pointed to the people behind her and said.

Linde asked again: "How many arrows can you add this kind of flame to at one time? What will it cost you yourself?"

"As long as the arrows are piled together, we can attach all the arrows to my Lord's holy fire. The holy fire will disappear after a period of time, so it must be used immediately and cannot be saved." Melisandre replied: " As for consumption, it just consumes some physical strength, just like directly participating in the battle, but we can pray alternately. "

Linde thought for a moment and said, "In that case, three red-robed monks will be stationed at each garrison point at the top of the Great Wall. You can decide how to allocate them."

At this moment, a horn sound suddenly came from outside the house. Everyone stopped what they were doing without talking and listened to the long and short frequency of the horn sound.

"The ghoul has appeared." Soon Sam was able to determine the content of the horn based on its long and short frequency.

After hearing this, everyone immediately walked out of the house under the leadership of Linde, went to the elevator, and took the elevator to the top of the Great Wall.

After Linde reached the top of the Great Wall, he went directly to the observation deck and looked outside the Great Wall.

I saw a large number of corpses coming out of the forest at the edge of the ghost forest in the distance, like ant colonies, from east to west, with no end in sight.

Although Linde has already mentioned that the number of ghouls will be in the tens of millions, but compared to a vague number, the impact and feeling of the wave of ghouls in front of people is stronger, even for some rangers. They were all so frightened that they needed to hold on to the ice wall to stand firm. Only the soldiers of Linde's Chosen Corps still stood steadily at various projection points, taking out arrows and placing them on the bow strings, ready to attack at any time.

At this time, a beacon tower on the top of the Great Wall in the far east had been lit, and thick black smoke was rising. Other beacon towers were also lit one after another, and soon they became a line.

After the beacon was lit, the wave of ghouls in the distance suddenly stopped and did not continue to advance. Instead, they stood still and did not move. Then they saw some white ghosts riding ghoul horses coming from behind. He walked out of the forest and stood at the front of the zombie wave, looking at the desperate Great Wall in front of him.

Seeing this, Lind directly took off his dragon bone bow, then pulled out an arrow with a Valyrian steel arrowhead and engraved with runes, stringed the arrow, fully drew the bow, and pointed it at the team An Elf and a White Walker shot out from the front.

The arrow shot through the air with strong force and showed no sign of falling. It flew in front of the Elf and White Walker in a straight line in an instant.

The Elf and the White Walker obviously did not expect that someone could shoot from such a long distance. He was not prepared at all and was shot directly in the head.

The power of Valyrian steel instantly dispersed the power of the White Walkers in his body, and his body shattered to pieces like ice.

And this specially made arrow did not just fall to the ground. The power of the runes on the arrow was immediately stimulated when it hit the White Walker, producing streaks of lightning that spread out around the center of the arrow. All the zombies a hundred meters away were affected, and were instantly ignited by the high temperature contained in the lightning, turning into balls of torches.

And these ghoul torches also quickly spread towards the surrounding ghouls with the sparks scattered everywhere, or the flames that directly come into contact with the ghouls.

Those ghosts quickly discovered the problem and immediately controlled the ghouls to avoid the flames and formed an isolation zone to prevent the flames from spreading among the ghouls. At this moment, thousands of ghouls had been ignited by the flames and turned into Human shaped torch.

"Long live the Chosen One!"

"Long live His Majesty the King!"

Waves of cheers spread quickly from Linde's defensive point. So many ghouls were destroyed with just one arrow. The night watchmen and other troops on the city wall who had just been frightened by the ghouls also regained their morale.

Lind was not affected by the cheers around him. He motioned to Melisandre and asked her to attach the Holy Fire of the Lord of Light to ordinary arrows, hoping to see what the Holy Fire of the Lord of Light could do to the White Walkers. How effective.

Melisandre and a black-skinned and white-haired red-robed monk each took two arrows and prayed quietly, and soon flames appeared at the tips of the arrows.

Lind picked up an arrow and shot it towards the human White Walkers in the distance. Without stopping, he kept picking up arrows with holy fire attached to them from the hands of the two people, and kept shooting at different targets. There are wights, there are human White Walkers, and there are elven White Walkers.

Although these ordinary arrows with sacred fire attached are far from comparable in power to Lind's specially made rune arrows with Valyrian steel arrowheads, they are still quite lethal to corpses and white ghosts. .

Basically, after being shot, the human White Walkers and corpses turned into torches or shattered into ice crystals. Only the Elven White Walkers were still able to pull out the arrows after being shot, but they were left with a Wounds that cannot be healed, it is obvious that the Holy Fire of the King of Light is not enough to cause fatal damage to these races favored by the cold god.

The arrows shot by Lind's keel bow were too powerful. Although the White Walkers tried to block them, they all failed without exception. Soon, more than a dozen White Walkers were shot by Lind, and there were cheers on the Great Wall. It’s also getting bigger.

Perhaps feeling that he had been used as a living target by Lind, the elf White Walker who was injured by the holy fire screamed, and then quickly retreated into the ghost forest. The other White Walkers also retreated and hid. In the ghost forest, only the corpses were left standing in front of them.

"The effect of the holy fire is very good. What if it is directly attached to the dragon crystal?" Lind saw the White Walkers on the opposite side of the defense point retreating into the forest and stopped attacking. He turned to Melisandre and asked.

"No!" Without waiting for Melisandre to explain, Benello said first: "The contact of the holy fire with the dragon crystal will directly cause the dragon crystal to explode."

When he heard that there was an explosion effect, Linde's eyes lit up and he asked, "Is there any way to delay the explosion time?"

"There is no way, it will explode as long as it comes into contact." Benero shook his head and said.

Lind thought for a while and ordered: "Send a red-robed monk to the secret law institute I set up in Ice Mark City later to cooperate with the casters there to see if you can find a way to stably attach the holy fire to the dragon crystal. ?”

After hearing Lind's instructions, Melisandre and others' faces became slightly gloomy. To them, the Holy Fire was the sacred power given by the Lord of Light. Now Lind asked them to provide the Holy Fire and cooperate with the caster in research, regardless of Whatever the purpose is it is a sacrilege.

"If there are any difficulties, just pretend that I didn't say anything." Linde saw everyone's faces turning gloomy and immediately realized that there was something wrong with his decision, so he said in a deep voice.

"No, we can cooperate with the research." Benero quickly made a decision and ordered to the black-skinned and red-robed monk on the side: "Maqiluo, you go assist the caster of the combination lock."

Magiro's face was covered with a thick beard, and his complexion was black. It was impossible to see his expression. I didn't know whether he was willing. I could only hear his dull response and stood aside.

Lind then ordered to Ella and Yara who were next to him: "You also go to the secret law house and stay. If necessary, I will call you. If Willas Tyrell in Ice Scar City orders you anything, you can do it." Just do it, but if the person you tell him is Bran Stark, don’t do it yet and tell me first.”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Ella and Yara responded.

Linde turned to look at the group of corpses outside the Great Wall and said, "Let's go! They shouldn't attack before nightfall. We still have time to rest. In the future..."

Linde did not continue, but everyone could imagine that the corpses and ghosts did not need to rest or sleep, and there were so many of them that once a war started, they would never sleep.
