Working Prophet
Chapter 619 Dwarves vs. White Walkers (Part 1)
Being suddenly engulfed by the weird beam of light, even General Jerome had fought in the battlefield all his life and killed countless enemies, so at this moment, he was also in a state of panic.
He couldn't even move his feet, and just stood there blankly, as if being choked by an invisible hand.
Then he was thrown to the ground by Aragorn, who shouted, "Protect the general!"
The other dwarf warriors came back to their senses and rushed over one after another.
They raised the shields in their hands, pulled out the battle axes around their waists, and kept slashing and howling at the beam of light, as if they wanted to scare their opponents away in this way.
However, no matter how fierce their actions were, the beam of light remained motionless.
A dwarf warlock thought of something at this time, and said excitedly, "This, this must be... the call of the gods!
"Only the most heroic heroes will be chosen to go to the kingdom of God full of ale and flowers, General Jerome, this is Setter's recognition of you!"
Jerome is still in the circle at the moment, and he subconsciously said, "But I still want to lead the army to fight for the kingdom, how can I go to the Kingdom of God now?"
"It doesn't matter, you can pray to Settlet and ask it to recruit you after you die."
However, before the warlock finished speaking, there was another shout of killing outside the camp, and the dwarf warriors on the outermost perimeter seemed to have fought some enemy.
Jerome's heart suddenly sank. He had gradually regained consciousness now, and no longer believed what the warlock said. This was Setelt's summons to him.
Even if there was a real shortage of people at Settlet, there was no reason to burn their food and grass first.
Jerome's first reaction was that the Imperials were calling.
After all, the only people in this mountain who could pose a slight threat to them were the Imperials. However, it didn't take long for the news coming back from the front to make his head confused again.
Because those dwarf soldiers said that the opponent was a group of humanoid monsters with colorful eyes and glowing light that they had never seen before.
When he heard the news, Jerome almost thought that he hadn't woken up yet, and all this was just a dream of his.
Otherwise, within a short period of time, there was another bolide, another white beam of light, and another luminous monster that suddenly appeared.
These are too bizarre.
However, Jerome secretly pinched his thigh, and the pain was very real. And the sound of killing in his ears was getting closer and closer to him.
Those monsters are menacing.
The dwarves can only fight in a hurry, many people have no time to wear armor, and the weapons can only be used for what they can get.
And most people, like Jerome, are frightened by these sudden visions, so as soon as they take over, they often cannot resist for long before they begin to collapse.
As the commander of this army, Jerome certainly understood how dangerous this situation was. He wanted to reorganize the soldiers who were fighting in different places and restore their combat effectiveness.
But it was not easy to do this even during the day, and now it was night, and Jerome couldn't even find a messenger.
He asked Aragorn to call the other officers. However, Aragorn turned around and didn't see many officers, but he gathered two or three hundred soldiers and said to Jerome when he came back.
"General, the enemy is about to attack. Let's retreat. Prince Oli's side has not been attacked. We can escort you to his side first. After reorganizing your manpower, we can then fight against those monsters."
Jerome looked around. He couldn't see clearly what was going on in the darkness, but the screams and wails that came one after another were almost all coming from the dwarves.
And Jerome noticed that the beams of light in the sky were still moving, and every time they moved to a place, it would not be long before they would be attacked there.
At this time, Jerome didn't know where the white beams of light came from.
But even if he saw this, there was nothing he could do. After all, he could still fight with the enemy, but facing these pillars of light he had never seen before, Jerome didn't know what to do to defeat them.
This frustrated the dwarf general.
At this time, Aragorn also noticed that Jerome's current mood seemed a little abnormal.
But he didn't have time to persuade him anymore, because although they dragged Jerome out of the suspicious beam of light, they were still very close to it.
Always in danger, he winked at two of his men. Ask them to hold up Jerome one after the other, and put the dwarf general on his horse.
After that, Aragorn led people to escort Jerome all the way to retreat to the west side of the camp.
As he said before, it has not been attacked by those monsters for the time being, and it is relatively safe, which can also give them time to reorganize the army.
Halfway through, Jerome finally came to his senses and said in a hoarse voice, "Gather those savages together. We can't just let our soldiers die. As allies, they also have to fight those monsters. "
Aragorn nodded, and sent one of his men to inform the leaders of the wildling tribes.
The rest continued to escort Jerome until they met Prince Ollie.
Jerome actually didn't like the middle-aged man in front of him who always had a hearty smile, because he knew very well the reason why the dwarf king sent Ollie here.
It was simply because of his outstanding achievements these years that Herley was a little worried about him, so he sent his younger brother to monitor him.
This time the Dwarf Kingdom dispatched 30,000 troops, but Jerome could only command about 18,000 people, and there were 12,000 people who mainly followed Ollie's orders.
Jerome was a little dissatisfied with this arrangement before, but now he actually felt a little lucky.
Due to the enemy's sudden attack at night and the coordination of various strange celestial phenomena, Jerome was caught off guard and suffered heavy losses. More importantly, he lost his command. His men and horses now became chaotic.
Jerome and Aragorn had been gathering the remaining soldiers along the way, but they could only gather less than 2,000 people.
On the other hand, although Ollie was also shocked, with the time they had bought, at least everyone was almost here now.
Jerome nodded to Ollie, and even though he had said hello, he immediately went straight to the topic without bothering to exchange pleasantries.
"We have been attacked. It is not yet clear who the attacker is, but judging from the speed of their advance, the number of people should not be particularly large. As long as we take people back to kill them now, we can regain the initiative."
Ollie's face no longer had the usual smile now, and he looked very serious, "General Giant, are you sure this is not a trap?"
"What do you mean?" Jerome was stunned for a moment, then felt a little annoyed, "At this time, are you still going to continue fighting with me?"
"It's not infighting," Oli shook his head. "The main night battle is not something we are good at. I think we should try our best to hold on until dawn."
