Rebirth of the Viking King

The wind suddenly stopped!

Old Gonk, who was riding on horseback, suddenly felt something bad. His troops had just broken several holes in the outer wall of Cold Water Castle. The cold wind had only been blowing into the castle for ten minutes, but at this time the wind stopped!

The red mist spreading from the castle spread to almost every corner of the village.

Squinting his eyes and observing, Old Gonk discovered that the blood flowing from the corpse slowly melted and rose into the red mist after touching it, and merged into it. There was no more wind in the gloomy sky, and the blood mist inside the village became thicker and thicker as it continued to swallow the corpses scattered on the ground!

A thorny sense of crisis pricked his nerves. As an old fox who has lived on the peninsula for more than 50 years, his first reaction was to escape from this magical fog.

But then I thought about it, he couldn't leave now

The battle in Hanshui Village has reached its final moments. Seeing that the gate of Hanshui Castle is difficult to conquer. After suffering a large number of casualties, the mountain warriors of Wuya Town finally used ladders to climb to the second floor of the castle from the outer wall of the building.

Now they have begun to occupy the windowsills and rush indoors to massacre the women guarding the castle.

Outside the castle, there were only a dozen white-robed monks guarding the church.

On the other hand, I still have close to 60 soldiers even if I am fully prepared. When he went on the expedition, he never imagined that the 500 strong Viking warriors under his command could actually reach this field when they attacked a poor and weak Hanshui Village!

And the most important thing is that the bandit leader Rocky Starrag has not been caught yet!

Old Gonk understood that both sides had their last breath at this time. Whoever can hold back his breath until the end will be the winner of this cruel battle.

So he can't take a step back!

"Everyone, pull back from the blood mist and move closer to me immediately!"

"If you don't want to die! Just do it right now!"

After roaring the order, the bodyguard beside Old Gonk picked up a horn hanging on his waist, raised it to his mouth and blew three times in a low voice. This was the horn of retreat. When the surviving mountain warriors of Mistduck heard the horn, they immediately abandoned their Storm's End companions and began to retreat.

At this time, only a dozen of the Storm's End reinforcements that Duke Bernard lent to Old Gonk survived. After the death of the leader "Sea Giant" Tasha, he was leaderless and could only obey orders. Bernard ordered everyone to form a defensive formation to surround the city. The axemen raised their shields to guard the outside, and the pikemen held spears to defend the inner circle.

In the center, in addition to the remaining commanders such as Lao Gonker, there were also several fog-duck-suppressing archers. They intensively defended themselves in the square not far from Hanshui Castle and were ready.

Everyone is waiting for the devil to appear in the blood mist.

Jerome, who was guarding the door of the church, was at the end of his life. The two "Light Chasers" who sang the gospel and continuously blessed him had exhausted their spiritual energy and passed out.

After all, they are only the chosen ones of Sequence 9, and the spiritual energy in their bodies is very limited. The two Crusaders under the "War Path" also fought until they were exhausted and fell to the ground. Even Jerome himself relied on his belief in defending the church to support himself.

Although the Sequence 4 "Light Overseer" can grant him the sacred flame that burns all things, his body is after all an ordinary person who has only practiced martial arts for one day and has killed two chickens and a wolf.

At this point in the battle, no less than 30 Viking warriors have died under his sword! His mouth felt dry and he had a splitting headache. If it weren't for Sanji's support along the way, he wouldn't even have the strength to walk.

Not to mention that the broadsword in his hand was covered with wounds and was on the verge of breaking.

After a great battle, all the Viking warriors present were covered in blood. Only the linen bag on Jerome's body was as clean as new. Any blood would be burned into ashes by the sacred flames attached to the robe before it touched it, so he was extremely conspicuous in the center of the battlefield.

The other one didn't have any blood on his body, just old Gonk who was standing in the array without killing anyone.

The two teams were nearly 50 meters apart in the blood mist, and no one took the lead.

On a windless and gloomy winter day, the sun has slowly set. The blue twilight spread from the sky, reflecting the blood mist, forming a picture from hell.

Except for the heavy breathing of the people on both sides, there was no unnecessary sound in the village.

At this moment, a staggering figure walked out of the castle door. His whole body was red, and it was extremely difficult to see clearly when he was hidden in the blood mist. Only the bright red ax dragged on the ground and the two red eyes could identify it as a person.

That was Loki who had been fighting to exhaustion in the castle.

Since the beginning of the battle, he has been repeating the simple action of hacking, killing, hacking, not killing, and then hacking again. He mechanically repeated this simple action countless times.

The floor on the first floor of Hanshui Castle has been removed by him. The stairs leading to the second floor have also been demolished. The outer perimeter of the castle was covered with slippery black ice. Even if Old Gonk poured oil and set fire to it, the half-meter-thick outer wall of the castle would not be something he could break through in a short while.

According to the established tactics, Loki single-handedly used the blood mist to firmly defend the first floor of Cold Water Castle. When he killed the 42nd enemy, he forgot the number. He couldn't remember how many more he killed later.

Only now that all the intruders had retreated outside did he come out dragging his axe.

He is human and he gets tired.

He could no longer lift the 18-pound blood axe.

After going out, he saw Jerome and old Gonk face to face. There are nearly 10 Hanshui Village hunters left beside Jerome, but Lao Gonk on the opposite side still has more than 50 shield and axe warriors.

He must fight hard for the future of the village.

The cold air seemed to freeze. Loki dragged the ax all the way across, and the scraping of the ax against the ground was the only sound made by the two armies.

He walked to the tomb of Ahai, the "Learned One", not far from Cold Water Castle. Wiping the blood from his face, he picked up the tombstone with all his strength, pulled it up from the ground and adjusted its direction so that the inscription on the tombstone was aimed at Old Gonk and his men who were waiting for him.

"You have saved my life many times, but I have tried to kill you many times!"

"What saddens me the most is that I didn't even have time to say sorry to you before you left!"

"Today, I want you to watch and let you see clearly that the enemy who murdered you died under my axe! In this way, even if I am not spared, at least my soul can rest in peace."

After speaking, Loki patted the tombstone twice, as if patting his old friend on the shoulder. Two bright red bloody handprints were printed on it!

He turned to look at Old Gonk, and at the same time shouldered the giant ax in his hand with all his strength!
