Chapter 736
The flames above the torch, kerosene, and burning Wights shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye, and eventually go out.
No need for telescope, everyone on the Wall can see the city scene.
In a simple sentence, within the field of vision, there are all corpses!
Wildlings wrapped in fur, Giant with rotten guts, Night's Watch in black cardigan, rotting corpses, bone racks without clothes, polar bears with rotting half of their heads, wobbly, Penguins with black blood on their chests...
beyond the wall, almost all the corpses that can come and can't come.
Wildlings also had a scale of more than 100,000 people at the beginning of the winter, and Wildlings, like the Westeros, were accustomed to burial.
Now, people buried in the ground, lying on the ground, running in the woods... Human plus wild beast, millions of army is no exaggeration.
"Attack where the blue light flickers, that's Others' eyes, attack Others, with kerosene, with Dragonglass arrow!" Cotter Pyke ordered loudly.
"Light the Torches and inform the Greenguard in the west."
"Tell Maester Harmune, write immediately, Winterfell, Hearth at Umber's, King's Landing...all Raven is all released, by the way, Dragonstone must not forget."
"Notify the Gulf Fleet to leave the port and patrol the entire Gulf along the coastline. If there is ice on the ocean surface, they will immediately throw kerosene bombs and destroy them. !"
As the command to guard the Captain passed, from the Wall to the castle below, to the Wormwalks under the castle, to the bay dock, everyone was busy.
“Hoo—the time to come is finally here!”
Cotter Pyke let out a long breath, clenched Dragonfang, moved towards beyond the wall said with a malicious smile: “I Stand here today and watch how you dog-mongrels get over the Wall!"
"There are so many of them that they might be able to climb up with Arhat, hahaha!" A shiny armor stamped The old Knight with the black and white wild boar emblem said loudly with a smile.
He is Reach Crakehall Earl Rolland, in response to the call of Dragon Queen "United Front Against Ghosts", he took the initiative to put on black clothed and head north to the Wall.
Aristocratic Knights like Earl Rolland have come to at least four or five hundred in recent years, completely solving the problem of insufficient number of officers at Night's Watch high level.
These Knights who come to Wall willingly and unconcernedly are the backbone that Night's Watch can rely on.
As a seasoned veteran, Earl Rolland knows what it takes to get the lads out of their nerves.
Old Ulmer guessed his purpose and also played said with a smile loudly: "Maybe, their strategy is to use up our arrows and kerosene, so they lined up and stood silently. Let's be a target for us!"
"hahaha..." After a while, led by a few veterans, a series of happy laughter broke out on the Wall, laughing and laughing, The nervousness of the soldiers gradually calmed down, and they began to throw kerosene bombs and arrows of Dragonglass arrows in an orderly manner.
Until the Others below change again...
"Sususu..." The dead body that was only beaten and unable to shoot seems to be instructed to brush together The brush moves to the left and right, revealing a ten-meter-wide road.
A icy white mist came from the end of the road.
The wind is getting colder.
Frozen fog, thicker.
Night's Watch seems to see two small blue lanterns Faintly discernible in the white fog, slowly approaching the city wall.
"There's a big guy coming." Ulmer facial expression grave, bend bow and place arrow, the tarpaulin wrapped around the arrow ignited on the brazier, with a "sou", it was thrown 600 meters away (with a 200m Wall height bonus).
"Ah!" Seeing the scene below, everyone exclaimed in unison.
It was an army, neat and tidy's ice crystal armor, algae-floating silver hair, all Others.
More than 100 people!
The Others rode a black-haired spider the size of a buffalo and followed behind a Others with an "umbrella handle" on his back.
It's like the nobles Knights go out with King.
Earl Rolland suddenly had a clear comprehension and said in awe: "Others King! That leader is the Others King."
"Attack, everyone, hurry up, hurry up, kerosene bombs , Dragonglass ballista, bow and arrow, cover that bastard!" Cotter Pyke suddenly came back to his senses, pointing at the Others King and roaring hideously.
Unfortunately, Others King is not stupid, he stopped 500 meters away from the city wall, and a circle of ice and snow storms gradually rose around him, disrupting all the flying arrows and crossbow arrows.
And the rising of the storm also blocked the sight of all Night's Watch.
It only attacked for about two rounds, and suddenly a low sound, like the sole of a shoe rubbing against a thick piece of glass on a concrete road, pierced through the storm around Others King unhindered.
Night's Watch, who heard the sound, unconsciously entered a trance state, only to feel that oneself's Soul was clenched tightly by a big cold hand, frozen into ice, and then crushed into ice chips.
And then, the most terrifying thing happened.
Not only their Soul, but also the 200-meter-high Wall beneath their feet.
"Crack—" The first crack appeared, and the sound of the first glacier breaking came. The people on the Wall didn't notice it, but the Night's Watch, who was busy preparing for the battle in the Castle Square, saw it. .
Because the crack is like a scratch on a baby's face, there is a deep crack several hundred meters long on the gray-white ice crystal wall, which is so clear, so outstanding, so shocking.
Without waiting for them to exclaim, "ka ka --ka ka ka --ka ka ka ka --"
second crack, third, 4th..... .In the blink of an eye, the mountain-like ice crystal Wall was covered with cracks.
naked eye Visible, a thick low black cloud gradually covered Wall - as if Wall was a child lying on the ground, and then mother covered him with a thick quilt.
“ka-cha—boom—”
A cobweb-like dense purple red lightning flashed in the black cloud over the city.
"ahhhh——" The lightning on the top of the head and the giant mouth-like glacial crevice under the foot made all the Night's Watches on the Wall guess what was going to happen next.
They opened their mouths one by one, making meaningless, but the last horror screams of their lives.
Of course, there is also the quick-response Night's Watch sprinting to the east, and there is a bay to the east...
"Boom--"
Part
A piece of ice the size of a roof detached from the wall and fell from a height of 100 meters, crash-banging on Eastwatch Castle. Dozens of Night's Watches who were standing by the noose rack carrying supplies did not even have time to let out their wailing. He was smashed into the head by a pot-like ice pimple, and then the whole was submerged.
This is just the beginning.
“Boom—crash-bang—”
The first ice cube is like knocking down the Bone Token of Domino, the ice wall one after another, and even Night's on the ice wall The wooden ladder built by Watch collapsed and slipped.
A thick layer of ice fog began to pour over the land.
The wind is stronger and colder.
In just over ten seconds, the Night's Watch castle behind the Eastwatch Wall was covered with ice.
“BOOOOM—”
Finally, the ice cubes fell off, revealing the bricks and boulders inside the Wall, like 10,000 detonators buried in the wall, lined up in a row. Arranged, detonated in turn.
The dark clouds on the Wall are getting darker and heavier, and the finger-thick lightning network is getting denser.
The first muffled sound came from the Bay of Seals seabed, then from east to west, a continuous explosion began in the Wall.
In fact, there is no explosion, but the imposing manner and sound of the Wall collapse are too amazing, like heaven falls and earth rends, the mountains are falling.
"Wall collapsed? Am I dreaming?"
Bay of Seals, the sailors on the fifteen longboat patrols stood on deck, looking at the tumbled Wall, his heart seemed to be ripped out of his warm chest and thrown into the icy sea.
They were drained of all their strength by the terrifying scene in front of them, slumped on the deck, and wailed in despair.
North of the Wall, the ice storm surrounding the Others King has dissipated, revealing Others "showing off talent".
He has the same gray, wrinkled skin as the other Others, but no algae flowing silver hair.
On the top of his bare head, nine transparent ice thorns in the shape of a long sword grew, like nine small horns growing on his head.
Those icicles surround the top door like a natural crown of thorns.
The crown of nine ice thorns generously declares his identity to all living beings: the King of the Others who will bring endless havoc to the world.
He was blowing an arm-length copper-encrusted black ox horn.
If Sam, or Jon here, could have recognized the origin of the horn at a glance: with Direwolf's guidance, Jon found under a boulder in the Fist of the First Men, unable to blow, and Converted to Sam as a souvenir.
Sam has it all the time, too.
......
In Fist of the First Men, I encountered Others, Wights, Night's Watch for the first time Yes, but he still brought the horn.
Then left the Wall and headed south to Oldtown, where he took horn with him again.
At Braavos, he took the horn with him; at Dragonstone, in front of the Dragon Queen, he still had the horn in his bag; finally, fatty Sam took the horn to Oldtown.
To be honest, if you ask fatty: the horn is worn and old, and there is only a piece of brass inlaid on the corner of the black ox, which is worthless at all, why do you keep it with you?
fatty will be at a loss: yes, why do I have to carry this broken horn?
Anyway, in Oldtown, it was supposed to be the furthest horn was from beyond the wall Others.
But it's missing.
A dead pigeon with blue eyes flickered and killed a ferocious raven the size of an old hen - the raven just flew over the head of "Ser Ace", within a distance of 100 meters.
Then, crossing Crow's Eye blinking blue, flew into Sam's bedroom, found the horn by familiarity, and took it back to North, back outside the Wall.
The moment he crossed the Wall, under the action of the evil suppressing array, the raven Wights was dismembered into a pool of rotten flesh.
But it flies at an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, and it also has a huge initial velocity flying northward.
At this point, Magic retreats regularly, and the Newton teacher is here!
The flight altitude is 1000 meters, and the initial speed is 50 meters per second (the speed of Earth's fastest pigeon), which is similar to Earth's Gravitational acceleration.
Then, can the corpse of the raven and the horn carried on the melon seeds cross a 200-meter-high and 20-meter-wide Wall?
