Throne of the North

"What? Baron Lane took back the Xiangshan Plain?"

The nobles were still in dire straits when they suddenly received the news of this depth bomb.

They looked to the north in shock, wondering why Ryan had taken back the Xiangshan Plain so easily.

"The orcs have gone south. They will not stay in the fortress. Yes, that's it. The orcs have entered the Beifong Province. Baron Ryan will not encounter many orcs in the Fragrant Mountain Plain."

Earl Sauron figured out the key, but he didn't understand it.

"But what's the point of this? The orcs have already invaded Beifeng Province. What's the point of him occupying the Xiangshan Plain Fortress now?"

He was puzzled. The Xiangshan Plain Fortress was to defend against the orcs in the north, but now the orcs had appeared at the doorstep of the nobles' territories.

What is the significance of that fortress now?

Earl Sauron didn't understand, and neither did the nobles of Beifeng Province.

"The eyes of the nobles can only see the nobles. Is the reason why this fortress was abandoned because of the soldiers?"

"No, it's because there are no nobles here."

In the fortress, Ryan led the knights to search for the orcs hiding inside, and used their blood to write letters on bark paper.

"What is the significance of taking back the Xiangshan Plain Fortress?"

Ryan smiled.

"The meaning is very simple. It's not for the nobles or the orcs, but to tell everyone that if this fortress is thrown away, many of them will die."

"Nobles will die, knights will die, commoners will die, slaves will die."

"As long as this fortress remains, they can survive. This is their...only way to survive."

Ryan murmured, his eyes looking into the distance, where soldiers were trying to repair the fortress. There were only more than a thousand people, but they had the belief that this fortress must be defended.

The nobles don't care about the war in the Tundra Territory, so Ryan must let them help defend the Tundra Territory.

One day, orcs will invade human land in large numbers. Faith is the only force that can resist them.

After kicking the orc's body open, Ryan handed the blood-stained letter that was frozen stiff on the bark paper to a group of cavalry.

"Send this thing to Leiyun County. Is the Marquis already born? Let him see it."

When the Marquis was born, the greatest power in the entire Beifeng Province fell on him, even if he was just a baby.

The cavalry rushed away, shuttled across the chaotic land of Beifeng Province, and delivered thick letters to the Marquis's mansion on Leiyun Mountain.

…

"One hundred thousand orcs have crossed the Xiangshan Plain, and they have appeared on the land of Beifeng Province."

"I swear on Ryan's honor that I will defend the Xiangshan Plain Fortress to the death. The orcs will not have a chance to return to the north."

"If you want to survive, then kill these orcs who have appeared in front of the nobles."

The Marquis's mother looked at the blood-stained letter on it, her chest heaving and she was extremely angry.

She hugged the Marquis and stared at the knight in front of her.

"What does Baron Lane mean? Is he threatening the nobles of Beifeng!?"

The leader of the ten captains was not afraid. He raised his head and said calmly:

"Sir Ryan did not allow us to respond to any questions. He only asked us to tell you a question to ask all the nobles."

"Nobles of Beifeng, do you believe that Ryan can defend the Xiangshan Plain Fortress?"

After the knight finished speaking, he turned and left. The northern war horses ran wildly on the frost-covered land. Even if the orcs discovered them, they would be quickly thrown away.

The letter was delivered to all the nobles, and the question also appeared in the minds of all the nobles.

"Baron Lane only left the Tundra Territory with a thousand soldiers and headed for the Fragrant Mountain Plains Fortress."

"When the orcs react and the fortress is occupied, Baron Lane will face an attack by 100,000 orcs."

"A thousand men, a hundred thousand orcs, and Black Goat warriors who can scale the walls."

"Can he hold it?"

All the questions made the nobles tremble with fear. The oath made with Ryan's honor was that the honor of the nobles could not be blasphemed in the slightest, and Ryan would not leave the fortress.

"But he's Ryan."

Some nobles couldn't help but sigh and said, and all the nobles fell silent.

Yeah, that's Baron Lane Clayton.

Counting from the time he came to Beifeng Province to today, Ryan has never lost a battle.

He will win, even if the numbers are disparate, he will win. He has never lost.

"Ryan is not a god. The werewolves will kill him and the black goat men will kill him."

Earl Winter said angrily, he understood that this was Ryan forcing him, a great noble, to do his best to kill hundreds of thousands of orcs in this circle with blood.

Ryan blocked the orcs' retreat, and if the nobles did not want their territories to be invaded and destroyed, they must prevent the spread of the orcs.

In the Xiangshan Plain Fortress, a tall citizen named Bilgi walked out of the plane gate. They were just ordinary people, but compared to many armies in the North Wind Province, they could also be called elite warriors.

They are not soldiers, because Ryan's soldiers need strict discipline and cooperation, but they are warriors, powerful warriors, the people of the Frost Lord.

Of course, it was impossible for Ryan to guard the city with only two thousand people. The four to five thousand Bilge people who appeared were the biggest help.

"Put on armor. If the orcs can't break through your defense, then you are invincible!"

Ryan did not put full body armor on these people because it was too heavy, but the half-armor state of the upper body could bear the burden on these warriors who dared to be naked in the ice and snow.

To a certain extent, their combat effectiveness was even greater than that of the more than a thousand serf soldiers who survived the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood.

When the Black Goatman Chief learned that his escape was cut off, it was already two days later. He looked at the Black Goatmen who ran in front of him with confusion and anger, and kicked them away.

Then he looked at the shivering black goat man next to him.

"You actually abandoned that fortress! A bunch of trash!"

The chief of the Black Goatman was extremely angry. He was not angry that the fortress was abandoned. He did not care about the fact that his retreat was cut off.

What makes him angry is that so many of his men, the Black Goat people, actually lost to humans in the war.

"Damn humans, attack, attack! Storm into their castle, I will kill them!"

The Black Goatman Chief rushed into a baron that day. The power of the sanctuary allowed him to defeat the extraordinary defense of the castle in less than half an hour. At the same time, the gate of the castle was also defeated. Looking at the ferocious orcs outside, the castle The humans inside are making their final resistance.

But in front of the powerful Black Goatman, this most powerful castle, which is only a Bronze Knight, does not have much resistance. The background of the noble baron family is not enough for him to fight against the powerful Black Goatman chief of the Sanctuary.

This was not the first nobleman to die at the hands of the orcs, but he was the first nobleman to die after the castle was breached. The entire Beifeng Province was in turmoil, and the nobles became extremely nervous.

Some of them wanted to escape, while others gave orders and wanted to fight to the death.

Life or land, you must choose one. If you want both, you will have to pay an unimaginable price.

"Damn Ryan!"

There are also nobles who are cursing, thinking that it was Baron Lane who occupied the Fragrant Hill Plains Fortress that made the Black Goat people crazy.

At the same time, a large number of orcs began to appear on the Xiangshan Plain, and they wanted to retake the fortress.

"If it were before, I would definitely tell those nobles using noble etiquette that I helped them contain an army of more than 50,000 orcs."

"But now I find that nobles need not only the respect of etiquette, but also the majesty of blood and fire."

Standing on the city wall, Ryan looked at the misty Xiangshan Plain to the south, where densely packed orcs grew in disorder like crops.

After the title of Marquis of North Wind appeared, the province lost their king.

The frontier of the empire, the land of Beifeng Province, needs a unified voice.

"Dignity, wealth, glory, land, let me see what you are capable of."

Ryan turned around, thousands of eyes looking at him.

"We will face tens of thousands of orcs! And here, today!"

"Among you people, a noble will be born!"

"One, Lord Xiangshan who belongs to this fortress!"

"In the name of Ryan, I will grant the identity of Lord to the most heroic warrior in this war. No matter who your identity belongs to, whether you are a slave or a civilian, who is the noble lord behind you, whether he is a baron or a viscount, No matter if he is the two earls or the Marquis of Beifeng Province!"

"I, Ryan, will grant you the status of Lord! No one can take it away."

"No one can take away your identity, just like today, no one can defeat you, the great existence is watching the glory here, no one can take away your power today!"

Ryan put on the Crown of Heroes. At this moment, the power of the Holy Realm fell on him. He stood in the sky, and the sunlight became hazy around him. He didn't know whether it was because the mist had evaporated or because the gods were really paying attention.

Below, the soldiers rushed to the city wall feverishly, looking at the dense crowd outside that had entered the blurry field of vision from the distance to the distance where they could see the ferocious faces of the orcs. There was no fear in their eyes.

Perhaps it was because Ryan showed them that they could only survive by holding on to this fortress.

Perhaps it was because of the noble status and title and huge wealth that Ryan mentioned.

Perhaps, just because they were standing here, the orcs came with bloody murderous intentions.

"Kill them!"

Deafening roars resounded throughout the Xiangshan Plain. The orcs launched an attack. They raised the ladder. What was even more terrifying were the black goat warriors. While running wildly, they stepped on the 90-degree gap in the city wall. The locations, those places are very small, some may only be as big as a human finger, and so deep, but the black goat man warriors holding scimitars stepped on them as if they were on the ground. Their eyes were cruel, and their blood-red eyes stared like demons. The human army overhead.

What greeted them were sharp arrows in the hands of more than 900 knights. The powerful force penetrated the arrows into their bodies. The power of inertia led these orc warriors to fall down the fortress wall and fall heavily to the ground.

They can step on the city wall and run wildly, but when they fall freely, most of the Black Goatman warriors still cannot adjust their balance after losing blood and being penetrated by metal. If they hit the ground, they will never survive.

On both occasions, thousands of warriors and soldiers were also pouring grease, and of course these things would be stored in the fortress.

The smooth grease caused the orc warrior to lose his footing and fall. The Black Goat Chieftain in the distance was furious at this scene. He rushed out and killed Ryan in the sky.

"Human, I will be cruel..."

"Okay, that's all you say. Isn't there anything new?"

Ryan shouted coldly, interrupting the other party, and then chopped out with the legendary long sword in his hand. An inexplicable force surged from the long sword. Ryan felt that his power increased several times at this moment, and the flames chopped out enveloped the Black Goat Chieftain. The latter had no speed to avoid it. The two scimitars chopped, still causing the hot flames to burn his dense black hair.

The Black Goat Chieftain was even more violent, with mysterious patterns flowing in his blood-red eyes. Ryan landed on the fortress. Compared to the sky, he could only swing the knight's long sword. He was more powerful when he was down to earth.

Stepping on the stone floor, Ryan rushed out without saying a word. The Black Goat Chief also fell from the sky at this moment, swinging his scimitar with great power and slashing down.

The moment the two collided, Ryan's face flushed, and blood filled his face. The huge force caused cracks in the stone slab under his feet. This was the floor of the fortress wall with magic secret patterns.

But the Black Goat Chief was also shocked. The human in front of him had too much amazing power, and the most important thing was that the knight's long sword actually cut two small gaps in his scimitar during the collision.

The black and red air waves spread out with Ryan and the Black Goat Chief as the center, and the strong wind caused the surrounding soldiers to fly out and fall.

"Don't come over!"

Ryan shouted coldly, stopping Brand who was rushing over. This was his battle, and there were many Black Goat Warriors who were comparable to the Golden Knights or even the Sky Knights attacking outside. Brand must become the second flag in the war to block those orc warriors.

Suddenly raising his head, Ryan's body was burning with flames, and then the mithril armor was also covered with flames. A low dragon roar sounded from Ryan's throat, and the majesty brought by it made the Black Goat Chief lose his mind in an instant. Then the power of the Heroic Crown on his head burst out, and the Heroic Spirit Goncalves appeared, swinging his sword and slashing at the Black Goat Chief.

However, he had consumed too much power to bless Ryan, and the power of this sword was not great. The Black Goat Chief, who was slashed away by a golden sword light, rolled on the ground under the fortress wall and hit dozens of orcs before climbing up.

On his back and shoulder, a blood scar deep enough to see the bone was exposed, and a low roar came out of his mouth. The surrounding Black Goat people became agitated, and black airflow surrounded the Black Goat Man's body. A tall Black Goat Man phantom appeared and bit the chief's wound.

A painful roar sounded, and the eyes of the Black Goat Chieftain turned dark red. Then he ran wildly on the ground, stepped on the fortress wall and rushed upward in a circle. The black oil on it had no effect on him.

"Human, you have successfully angered me."

"Bear the power of the devil!"

Black air permeated over the two scimitars. The speed of the Black Goat Chieftain was more than twice as fast as before. Even Ryan could only stand in place and keep turning his body, and then at the last moment he could react and raise his sword to block the scimitar that quickly appeared in the black mist.

The heroic spirit Gonçalves found the right opportunity to kill the Black Goat Chieftain, but the Black Goat Man with black mist on his body kept distanced from him.

Gradually, Ryan's pupils were also filled with flames, and he seemed to be a little annoyed by this passive scene. At the moment of blocking another scimitar attack, he took the opportunity to insert the knight's sword in his hand into the ground.

In an instant, the air became hot, and the blazing flames spread in all directions with him as the center like a giant wolf.

The indiscriminate force forced the Black Goat Chieftain to the ground, and Ryan rushed towards him with a sword in one hand.

The charred Black Goat Chieftain swung his two swords at the same time. When a scimitar fell, Ryan reached deep into his palm. The roar of a stag appeared on his palm covered with mithril armor, and he grabbed the scimitar tightly. The next moment, the knight's long sword was facing forward painfully, and his eyes met the eyes of the Black Goat Chieftain at a distance no more than the width of his palm.

The madness in his eyes was no less than that of the orc chieftain in front of him. The scimitar fell and the long sword stabbed out. Who has more courage?

Facts have proved that both kings have the courage to win when they meet on a narrow road. The Black Goat Chieftain did not retract the scimitar to fight against the knight's long sword, and Ryan did not care about the sharp scimitar that fell on his shoulder.

Bang! ! ! ! ! ! !

The horrified Qi and blood spread heavily. Ryan's amber sword pierced through the Black Goat Man Chieftain's shoulder. The scimitar fell, and a lot of blood flowed out from the cracks in the mithril armor.

The Black Goat Man Chieftain's gray eyes also revealed shock. He didn't understand why this human dared to do this at first, because the orc's physique was far superior to human flesh and blood. He dared because he felt that he would not die, and what about the human noble in front of him?

When the scimitar tore open the magic secret pattern on the mithril armor, and then cut the hardness of the armor itself, and fell on the human noble, the Black Goat Man Chieftain understood.

The opponent's flesh and blood was stronger than his own, and the strange thing was that the moment his scimitar tore through his flesh and blood, his soul suffered an extremely terrible impact. He felt a stag rushing towards him at the speed of light from a long distance, he saw a bear roaring at him with thunder, he also saw the hounds biting him, and saw his blood flowing from the wolf's bloody mouth.

The impact on his soul also made the Black Goat Chieftain lose control of his body at this moment.

In Ryan's hand, the amber sword burned, and the dragon's flames pierced the orc chieftain's abdomen, and then the more ferocious flames ignited the opponent's whole body.

Boom——

In the sky-high column of flames, the Black Goat Chieftain, this powerful sanctuary, turned into ashes.
