Rebirth of the Viking King

"The tide is out"

Alfred narrowed his eyes and was surprised to find that the seawater in the "Cloud Province" that had almost spread to the entire valley was receding rapidly. A large group of floating corpses and deep-sea monsters that had no time to escape were hung in the black bean bushes and struggled to death.

Thick smoke was also billowing from the castle in the distance.

Behind him, "Walker" Rolf picked up his signature 2-meter ax and led all the militiamen in the "Rolf Combat Academy" into a wedge-shaped battle square.

The soldiers held a shield in one hand and an ax in the other, ready for battle.

On the other side, "Porcupine" Gowen and his ferocious pirates also drew their weapons. They looked at the castle burned by fireworks, their eyes full of greed.

They seemed to be able to smell the gold and silver being roasted by the flames.

However, the first thing everyone has to face is the tens of thousands of "worm-possessed people" who are staggering over.

Alfred was prepared.

The English militia behind them pushed several carriages. Barrels of fuel and black powder were placed behind the carriage.

When the slow-moving worms swarmed in and approached within 1 kilometer of the front line, the militiamen lit the fuses of the gunpowder barrels and at the same time took out several cold daggers and inserted them into the horses' buttocks.

The frightened horses dragged the burning gunpowder and rushed madly towards the slowly surrounding worm-possessed people. After rushing into the rolling crowd, the unconscious living corpses grabbed the horses hard and stretched out their withered hands to dig hard. Put the horse meat into your mouth.

They only saw living things in their eyes and did not recognize the gunpowder barrel rolling down from the carriage, the burning fuse, and the kerosene that quickly flowed out after the barrel shattered.

Therefore, when the explosion's flames dyed the sky red, all 30,000 insect-possessed people were caught in the sea of ​​​​fire.

Alfred was in no hurry to send troops.

Prey in a desperate situation is the most dangerous. Rather than launching an attack and losing valuable reinforcements to the hands of the zombies, it is better to let the spreading flames continue to burn for a while.

Reinforcements cannot cost more lives in the name of saving lives.

When the sun poured out the first ray of light, most of the 30,000 insect-possessed people had been killed or injured in the flames. Feeling that he could no longer wait, Alfred turned and looked at all the cavalry behind him.

"This is the first battle our 'Normandy Region' has faced since its establishment!"

"Right now, there is an evil god trying to desecrate our land. Many of our compatriots are fighting bloody battles with them in the castles in the valley!"

"They have used their tenacity to fight day and night when surrounded by enemies dozens of times larger than themselves!"

“Our mission is to save our compatriots while permanently expelling the ancient evil gods from our land!

For glory!

For Odin!

In the name of Duke Loki, I hereby order the charge! "

The low horn sound sounded again, and four thousand cavalry rushed into the Baiyun Valley.

The seawater that originally spread to the outskirts of the valley and almost overflowed the valley is receding rapidly. Although he didn't know what happened specifically, Alfred felt that the matter should be related to the fire ignited in the castle.

**

The "drowned people" and the sea monsters they drive are a group of people who must rely on sea water to survive.

When the power of the "deep divers" gradually weakened and the sea water receded, the drowned people who lost the protection of the ocean were like fish schools forgotten on the coast.

The hot morning sun mercilessly burned their exposed limbs on the ground. The drowned people stretched their limbs and tentacles vigorously, but the slippery tentacles were destined to be unable to move quickly on the ground.

When 4,000 army horses rushed towards them with iron hooves, they heard the shaking of the earth and squirmed desperately, but to no avail.

In just ten minutes, it turned into puddles of meat paste clinging to the ground under the trampling of the horses' hooves.

At this point, the easy part is done.

Most of the sea water in the valley has receded, but the castle is still a wetland. There is still a steady stream of sea water in the moat pouring into the basement, and the sound of large groups of aliens walking around can still be heard in the damp castle.

Alfred left all the English cavalry outside the castle and continued to clear out the drowned people and the few surviving worms stranded in the valley after the low tide.

As for "Porcupine" Gowen and "Walker" Rolf, they led their men and entered the castle with him.

The division of labor between the two parties is very simple.

Gowen seeks wealth, Rolf seeks war.

In terms of combat power, the training soldiers and professional pirates under these two men were much larger than the wall of troops that Clint had organized in a hurry.

Rolf, carrying a big ax on his shoulder, walked straight in from the entrance of the gate without dodge.

As for the pirates, they used their special skills and took out the lasso equipped with a hook and threw it on the eaves.

After a whole winter of plundering, the pirates had already summed up experience after seeing the luxurious castles of the nobles of the Western Continent. The property of a wealthy gentleman is usually placed in the study or bedroom adjacent to the bedroom.

Pirates plunder and seek wealth. They can rush into the bedroom and remove the safe. They will never enter from the hall and provoke the unnecessary guards.

As for Alfred, he also took out his silver sword and climbed up the city wall with the porcupine Gowen.

If there are any survivors among Clint's men, they will most likely be on the upper level of the castle.

**

There are still a large number of high-sequence strong men among the "drowned people" inside the castle. After the Viking pirates broke into the castle, the sound of slashing and killing sounded again inside.

The Viking hunters who grew up in a poor land have been fighting various wild beasts in the Tianduan Mountains since they were young. They are born with a strong ability to recognize monsters. In addition, I have entered Asgard in the past two years.

Compared with the various beasts living in the Land of the Dead, the Land of Frost, and the Land of Fire, the humanoid octopus that appeared in front of them was as docile as a lamb.

The pirates, holding swords in their left hands and waving torches in their right hands, easily killed the monsters and burned them. The bulk pirates from the Visigoths and the Northern Continent even tried to cut off a few curved tentacles and roast them for a taste after the battle.

Especially the black-skinned brothers in the northern continent, there is a widespread rumor in civilized society that they can eat anything. When hungry, you can even grab hot sand and stuff it into your mouth to resist hunger.

In stark contrast to the excited pirates who discovered a new toy was Alfred.

He shouted Clint's name loudly in the hallway with his broadsword in hand. However, apart from finding Faith Seaclaw and a few fishermen in a rum barrel, no reply was heard along the way.

Obviously, most of the 1,000 people Clint brought into the Cloud Province died in this evil ambush.

"Clint Fuyuki is the fossil of my Hanshui Village. He is the oldest salty dog ​​in the village!"

"If one of us can survive, that person will definitely be him!" Having witnessed Clint's magic for many years, Faith is extremely confident in his ability to survive.

"The last time I saw him was when the water was spreading over two floors."

"There are too many powerful high-sequence monsters in the castle. Most of the brothers suggested leaving the city to escape. He was the only one who insisted on climbing to the third-floor terrace! Let's go to the terrace to see if we can find him!"

Rushing upstairs, at the corner of the stairs, Alfred saw the scattered corpses of the drowned people. Pushing open the heavy door, he saw broken tentacles that refused to twitch.

And lying flat among them, a bloody figure

"Mr. Clint?" Alfred stepped forward quickly.

"rest assured"

"You can't die yet!"

Clint was furious, but he was still alive after all. He raised a finger and pointed at the extinguished fireplace not far away.

"The real owner probably dug through the floor under the fireplace and escaped!"

"Follow the tunnel and maybe you can keep up with him!"

"be quick!"
