"My lord, the goods are all packed. Last night's 'support supplies', including seven cows, twenty sheep, a pack horse, and a whole host of other things, are all credited to your books and packed."
Karim, the steward, was dressed in a decent cloth shirt, but his expression was deflated; no one could be happy about entering the North. They stood on the walls and looked out into the distance, still only gray fog except for the gray fog that connected to the firmament.
It wasn't that he hadn't thought about escaping, but Feld didn't give him any chance.
Slave soldiers such as Bobcat, corrupted by money, had completely become Feld's diehard loyalists, and Cam guaranteed that as soon as he ran, he would immediately be killed by the damn lackeys, and then Feld would reward them with a silver coin.
Damn lackeys, they corrupt their souls for money, they don't even want to live, the steward cursed in his heart.
Slaves are like this, as long as you give them a little hope and favorable treatment, they dare to dedicate their lives.
"Right, my lord." Caor hesitated and glanced at Ashena several times, and couldn't help but inquire, "That slave, I'm sorry, I mean Miss Ashena, is really the Chosen One of God, she's not lying to us, is she? Can you show a miracle."
In order to encourage people, Feld had gathered the crowd last night and announced the news of the Chosen of God.
"I still have to prove it to you? Why don't you come to pioneer and I'll be your steward? I just don't know if you can survive the siege of the Empire." Feld stopped Ashena's idea of summoning a giant wolf and grunted coldly, frowning as he stared at the butler, this disloyal butler, who had been talking demoralizingly the entire time, if it wasn't for the fact that he was the only one who could read and write, Feld would have hated to make him a horseman.
It was time to knock him about a bit.
Caor felt the pressure, cold sweat immediately slipped from his forehead, "uh", did not dare to speak.
His own master was a different person from before, perhaps the family was putting too much pressure on him? Should be so, after all, he himself is not willing to enter the cursed land, the pampered nobles must be even more unwilling, Caor's brain is messed up into a paste.
"No objections, then let's go!"
Feld lit the fog repelling lamps, and at twenty-five gold coins a piece, every minute of burning was throwing money into the fire.
Gritting his teeth, Field stepped into the Northern Province with one foot, and all the sounds or scents of living things around him suddenly disappeared. In its place, there was only a terrifying silence. Raising his head, Field saw the gray fog of death that shrouded the surroundings, eerily silent, even the sun could not be seen. Staying for a long time would create the illusion of being in the deep sea, even Field felt nervous and scared, let alone the slaves.
If it wasn't for the fact that they would be corrupted if they left the fog repelling lamps, and that Field had announced the news of the Chosen One to the crowd, I'm afraid that they would have lost their minds at this moment, and would have crashed headfirst into the gray fog, and then be corrupted into monsters.
The ground was covered with red and black wriggling "tentacles", which were corrupted plants that had no offensive power, but would wrap around the wheel.
"It's so damn like Silent Hill." Forcing himself to remain calm, Feld walked at the front of the group, making himself visible to them, guiding the crowd forward, and giving them courage.
After all, the life-preserving nobles were there, so what reason did they have to run away?
"Grrrrr..."
"Roar!"
All sorts of weird cries kept coming out of the gray fog, the fog-driving lamps illuminated the distance of a hundred or so paces ahead, while the roars came from even further away, and the crowd had no sense of security to speak of.
There were broken walls everywhere, and there were shriveled heads stuck in the ground with corroded iron spears, and even Field saw a faded griffin flag, the empire had sent a lot of pioneering legions, but unfortunately all of them died out and became "locals" very well.
"Gulp~"
Feld gulped.
"My lord, step back behind me." Ashina's scarlet eyes looked ahead to the right warily, "A monster is approaching."
Soon, a carrion with half of its face missing stumbled into Field's line of sight.
"Whoosh!"
Ashina opened her bow and shot an arrow, cutting a silver stream of light in the air.
The carrion's head exploded like a watermelon, and the body rolled on the ground twice before it stopped moving.
"Watch out! More monsters are rushing over!" On Fielder's mini-map, a large skull symbol appeared, and since he was discovered, Fielder couldn't be bothered to lower his voice, "As before, surround the wooden wheeled carts into a cart wall, and the bowmen release arrows!"
In the Click Mountain Fortress, Feld obtained eighty crossbows and one hundred imperial standard bows, unfortunately only two or three of the slaves knew how to shoot arrows, fortunately the crossbows were very useful, so he armed twenty archers.
The strange cries became more and more rampant, accompanied by the sound of dense footsteps, the black pressurized corpses crowded in and exposed themselves to everyone's sight. Feld had the help of a mini-map and knew the location of the nearby monsters, but the density was so high that they were still forced to take on the enemy.
"Damn it, release the arrows!" Without Feld having to say much, the slaves had already fired their quivering crossbows.
"Whoosh~" The carrion in the front row looked like they had hit an invisible wall, and immediately seven or eight of them fell.
Ashena, on the other hand, put away her bow and arrow, summoned a giant wolf and crushed through, even though she only had the rank of a first-ranked divine Chosen, the combat power of a divine Chosen was already above that of mortals.
The long knife in her hand fluttered up and down like a butterfly, and a carrion fell under her blade.
Either their heads were chopped off by the long knife, or they were slapped to death by the claws of the Dragon Seed Wolf, Asuna rushed into the dense mass of corpses, and immediately caused the Dragon Seed Wolf to rotate and spit fire as if it were a hurricane of flames, and all of the rotting corpses in the surrounding area were burned to ashes.
"Actually, actually it's really a Chosen of God?" Kao rubbed his eyes, his face full of incredulity.
Ashina apportioned a large amount of pressure, but the tense atmosphere didn't slow down in the slightest, affected by the vision of the gray fog, the carrion corpses that kept pouring out from the gray fog caused great psychological pressure on the crowd.
"Kill!" The bobcat gave a low shout and tried his best to stab the halberd in his hand towards the carrion corpses that were rushing in.
Three or four halberds pushed into the chest cavity of the corrupted corpses, and then with a pick, the corrupted corpses were thrown to the ground like rags, more corpses collided with the slave guards where the bobcat was located, and the corrupted corpses' fists and claws rained down on top of the guards' shields and zamak armor, emitting the sound of iron clinking like "clanking clanking clanking clanking clanking clanking clanking clanking clanking clanking clanking clanking clanking clanking sound.
"Eh? What's flying over here?"
Feld noticed a fast-moving skull symbol on the map, which was already above him, without hesitation, Feld immediately rolled over and dismounted from his horse, it was too dangerous for him to be the only one in the entire group to stand on the high ground.
Only just standing still, Feld didn't have time to look upward before he felt a strong wind coming.
"Watch your head!"
Feld immediately lowered his body and drew his longsword to poke upwards, and with just a hurried glance, Feld saw a batgirl.
No hair or eyebrows, ugly face, except for the body with female features, while the hands were bat wings and the legs were sharp hooked claws.
