Throne of the North.

Chapter 411 Impossible Road, Bait War

It was a sunny day, but it was drizzling. This was against common sense and surprised Earl Winter.

He had a bad feeling in his heart.

"The werewolves haven't attacked in three days."

"Werewolves are cunning, and they will never give up their war against humans."

Beside her, Countess of Winter held Earl of Winter's hand tightly.

"The army is blocking the only canyon. The werewolves can't get in. Your people will help you hold the line."

"Can you hold it?"

Count Winter did not say this, but changed the subject and said:

"We have seen what Baron Ryan is doing. He can actually... let the power of the God of Light bless that slave army. No wonder he is so confident. But how did he do it?"

Earl Winter was puzzled. Ryan blocked the werewolf's attack and completed the second step as planned, fighting back against the werewolf. Now there are no werewolves in the entire Thundercloud County. The nobles there look at Ryan as if he were a new king.

Such a description is not considered a betrayal for the North Wind Province, because it is too far away from the emperor of the empire. For more than thirty years, the nobles here have never seen what the emperor looks like. The empire does not care much about the North Wind Province, so similarly, the empire's control over the North Wind Province is actually pitifully low.

Here, everyone has to rely on themselves for everything, so the one who can lighten the burden for the nobles must be someone to be admired.

Earl Winter was somewhat unwilling, but for now, North Wind County, including North Wind City, could only passively defend against the attacks of the werewolves, and they were suppressed time and time again. If the werewolves had not attacked in the past few days, the only canyon leading to Earl Winter's castle territory might have been opened up.

During these three days, thousands of people seized every opportunity in the hope of improving the defense line there.

Just as Count Winter was thinking, a knight suddenly ran in from outside.

"My Lord Earl, the werewolves are attacking!"

Earl Winter stood up and was about to give an order when more wolf cavalrymen descended from the sky.

"It's bad, Lord Earl. The wolf cavalry of the Silver Moon Court has appeared in the mountains west of the castle. They are attacking!"

"what?!"

Earl Winter was extremely shocked. To the west of his castle was the west of the entire Borean Province, where towering mountains isolated everything. And the most terrifying thing was that the mountains to the west were the most rugged and rugged in the entire empire.

The rocks are smooth and no grass or trees can grow there. The mountains are jagged and there is no place to stand or support themselves. There are not even many flying birds in such a place. How did the werewolves and wolf cavalry get through?

Next to her, the magical light in Countess Winter's eyes dimmed and she gave an answer.

"Goatman."

She saw in the distance that there were black goat men leading the wolf cavalry.

"They found a way through the mountains in the north."

In such terrain, only goats can find a path.

"Werewolves are indeed cunning."

After learning from the Countess that the wolf cavalry had not yet fully landed, Earl Winter made a decision with a fierce look in his eyes.

"Let Hora come back at full speed. We'll throw all these wolf cavalry off the cliff!"

……

To the west of Earl Winter's territory, in the cracks of the bare mountains, the wolves were advancing somewhat irritably. Their rough bodies had to walk carefully on the edge of the cliff. From time to time, gravel fell into the foggy abyss under their feet, which frightened even these fierce hunters.

Thousands of wolves and thousands of werewolf warriors formed a line and walked on the cliffs. At the front, there were two or three hundred wolf cavalrymen who were alert to the surroundings.

They did not notice the unicorn in the shade of the tree. Both sides were a kind of wolf, but the unicorn was too familiar with this land and they smelled a different scent.

"These weak humans would never have thought that we would appear behind them!"

On the back of the wolf, the werewolf showed a ferocious smile. He had already seen the scene of his own claws killing indiscriminately in the near future.

Then the next moment, a shadow descended from the sky, covering his vision above his head. A huge one-horned flying wolf swooped down like a bird, and the cavalry also started fighting.

"Don't fight them, get airborne! Get airborne!"

"Go kill those enemies still on the cliff!"

Count Winter's voice echoed in the sky. Except for the hundreds of Flying Wolf Cavalry that had already fallen, the remaining Flying Wolf Cavalry did not stop and went straight to the werewolves who were walking cautiously on the cliffs in the western mountains.

"Push them down!"

The unicorn flying wolves swooped towards the mountain wall. They were too familiar with this land, but they were also too unfamiliar with the wolf cavalry.

When the unicorn flying wolf rushed down and approached the wolf cavalry within three meters, the wolf's vicious eyes finally could no longer conceal its ferocity, and it leaped directly towards the unicorn flying wolf amid the werewolf warriors behind it shouting "no".

It had but one chance, and as in every one-shot hunt in the North, it succeeded.

The wolf's claws embedded into the flesh and bones of the unicorn wolf in mid-air. The huge weight carried the unicorn wolf towards the cliff below. Behind him, the knight's face changed drastically. The unicorn wolf's load-bearing capacity was limited, so he didn't even dare to prepare extra armor. However, the wolf's weight at this moment was more than the weight of the armor, and the opponent was still biting continuously, making it impossible for the unicorn wolf to maintain balance in the sky.

Ouch——

The howling of wolves resounded, and the werewolf warriors on the cliffs had fierce eyes. They jumped out directly, grabbed the body of the wolf tightly, and then climbed up.

boom!
Below, in the foggy abyss filled with miasma, the mist was swirling around and a loud noise was heard from the bottom of the abyss. The Flying Wolf Cavalry and the Wolf Cavalry fell down at the same time. At this height, plus the miasma below, there was no possibility of survival.

On the cliff, the bloodthirsty wolf riders rushed towards the unicorn flying wolf swooping down from the air without caring about their lives. They didn't care about the final result. When the enemy arrived, the only thing in their minds was the desire to kill it by all means.

The orc warriors, who have embarked on a transcendent journey, are far more irrational than ordinary orcs.

Savagery is their only option, violence their only remaining weapon.

Finally, with an angry roar, the wolf cavalry who rushed out from the crevice in the mountain from behind ran madly on the last section of the cliff and ran towards the woods in the distance.

"Throw weapons!"

Count Winter saw the Silver Moon Werewolf King in the distance forcing the Wolf Riders to change their methods, and he also gave the order. Not only was the Werewolf King unable to accept such a one-for-one death method, but Count Winter was also extremely heartbroken at the moment. This extraordinary army was the foundation accumulated by his family for hundreds of years, and the glory of the Winter family relied on the support of the extraordinary army.

He was extremely upset. It had been three days, and he only discovered at the last moment that the wolf cavalry had entered the territory from the west. If he could have done it earlier, even just an hour, he would have been able to wipe out the most powerful wolf cavalry of the Silver Moon Royal Court in the mountains to the west in this mountain range where no birds had ever flown.

The time was too short. Even with the help of the Mage Tower, Countess Winter was unable to set up a powerful magic circle. Now the wolf cavalry was only one section of cliff less than two hundred meters away from entering the forest where they could walk as if on flat ground.

This is a long distance for humans, but for wolf riders, as long as they don't worry about falling, they only need to run thirty times. The speed of the wolf is very fast, and the werewolf warriors are just as fast without the wolf's back. The agile and cooperative werewolves have always been the best living conditions of the orcs in the North.

In the sky, the unicorn wolves no longer dived down. They also discovered the gap between the two sides. Being in the sky is the unicorn wolves' biggest advantage.

Under the control of the knight, the unicorn wolf came to the top of the cliff road, and its sharp claws landed on the stone. The already shaky stone was thrown downwards. The wolf had no way to dodge and could only resist. Then its feet slipped and it fell off the cliff.

"Stop them!"

Count Winter fell from the sky. There was only one opening on the road above the cliff leading into the forest, so he personally blocked the way. The fighting desire shown by this Count in the war was worthy of his identity as a Holy Knight.

But in the forest behind them, hundreds of wolf cavalrymen who had passed by earlier also rushed over, led by two Sanctuary Werewolves.

In the Silvermoon Royal Court, the clan leaders are often powerful extraordinary people. In addition, the largest number of extraordinary werewolf warriors are all among the wolf cavalry.

"Rush over."

The Silver Moon Werewolf King Hati appeared on the top of the mountain, but the wizard tower in the void made him wary, so the rigorous Hati still did not take action. If that legendary human appeared, coupled with the magician in front of him, he would be in danger.

Because magicians always travel to many corners of the world, they have a great reputation, and the combination of magicians and knights is often particularly vigilant in the circles of foreign races.

Even dragons would hesitate because of such a combination. As history has shown, countless powerful alien races have died at the hands of such a perfect combination of magicians and knights.

Countess Winter did not take action either. She really wanted to cast a spell to make at least hundreds of wolf riders fall, but she was very weak now. The King of the Silver Moon Court was very powerful, that was beyond doubt. Even among the legends, he was powerful. And she was just a Sanctuary magician. Space magic made people fear, but the insurmountable gap between the legend and the Sanctuary made magic helpless.

Most importantly, Rosalind, the Meyers family legend is not here.

If the werewolf king is forced to take action regardless of the consequences, his side will definitely suffer greater losses in the end.

On the cliff, wolf cavalrymen kept falling into the abyss. In this last section of the journey, the Flying Wolf Cavalrymen tried their best to stop them, but they still couldn't stop more and more wolf cavalrymen from appearing in the forest.

It is easy to deal with the werewolves, but the problem lies in those powerful werewolf warriors. They are intelligent. When rubble falls on their heads, the werewolf warriors will hold on to the stones next to them tightly, and then knock the falling stones away. Sometimes they can even help the werewolves resist the attack from overhead.

The stone's attack method is still too fragile, but in such a hurry, the Flying Wolf Cavalry can't get more weapons with greater damage.

As the number of wolf cavalry in the mountains and forests increased, the Flying Wolf Cavalry in the sky had to be dispatched to the battlefield in the mountains and forests, where the situation was equally tragic.

"I can't stop it!"

Hora gritted his teeth, he was also being stared at by a powerful werewolf warrior, who was at the top of the mountain. The power of the sanctuary allowed the werewolf to leap in front of him, preventing him from taking any action and forcing him to act as a commander.

Seeing more and more wolf cavalry appearing in the mountains and forests, where the Flying Wolf Cavalry had less and less advantage, Hora finally made a decision.

"Retreat and fight in the rear!"

The last few hundred unicorn flying wolves in the sky roared unwillingly towards the ground, then spread their wings and flew towards the mountains and forests.

The war became brutal at this moment as the weapons came into close combat. The werewolf warriors had a bloodthirsty and angry look in their eyes, and they were quickly approaching the unicorn flying wolf as their warwolves were running wildly.

"Don't fight them on the ground!"

Hora commanded that the Flying Wolf Cavalry's advantage was in the sky, and their combat effectiveness on the ground was not as good as these damn Silver Moon Wolf Cavalry.

However, the next moment, Hora opened his eyes wide. He saw the wolf leap up with all its might, and the werewolf warrior on its back stood up, and then used the wolf's back to appear in the sky more than ten meters high.

The tall trees could not block the werewolf warrior's vision. The weapon extending from his hand bones slashed across the Flying Wolf's abdomen. As blood splattered, the Flying Wolf also lost most of his strength and swayed unsteadily in the air.

The unicorn flying wolf was aroused by the pain and rushed towards the fallen werewolf warrior, biting the opponent with its fangs. Behind it, the flying wolf knight was helpless. As the trees swayed, the moment it fell to the ground, the wolf that had been waiting beside it pounced on it.

The knight reacted at this moment and stabbed out with the sword in his hand. The werewolf, the knight, the warg and the flying wolf were caught in an absolute melee at this moment.

……

Winter Canyon.

This is the only place in the North Wind Province that leads to the Earldom of Winter. As long as you pass this canyon, you can see the Earldom of Winter, which is like a paradise. Strictly speaking, not every inch of land behind this valley is the earl's territory, but the other lands cannot be divided into a barony, so naturally, land annexation is not an unexpected outcome.

The food is grown in a place that even the wind and snow cannot reach. However, at this moment, this vast field has become muddy. Countless people are walking in it, running towards Winter Canyon, where they resist the attacking werewolves.

The war was fought by all the people, and there was even support from other nobles. More than 100,000 people gathered here, and on the other side of the canyon, there were also a large number of werewolves.

More and more werewolves came from afar and gradually appeared on the battlefield here at the call of the Silver Moon Werewolf King. As long as the human army here was defeated, the werewolves could march straight in and rush directly to the foot of Earl Winter's castle in the distance.

This is the battlefield in the east. Just like the war between the two extraordinary cavalry in the west, the werewolves will gain an absolute advantage if they win on either side.

Just as the location of the canyon blocked all enemies outside, it also blocked the humans inside. The humans in the Earl's territory couldn't imagine what would happen to them if werewolves rushed in.

Can't even escape.

In desperation, they dared not slack off in the war.

The only problem is that attitude is attitude and strength is strength. As the werewolves' attack becomes more fierce, most of the corpses on the ground belong to humans.

"Don't allow werewolves to rush into the earldom. Kill them!"

The knights who had fought bloody battles rushed out madly, their bodies glowing with energy and blood. That was the effect of the magic potion. The power of the magic potion could be seen in the surrounding army. As a magician of the Space Sanctuary, Countess Winter certainly could not be without the means that all magicians are good at.

This is also the reason why the war in the canyon could be sustained when there was no Flying Wolf Cavalry. The price was countless wealth, the extraordinary accumulation of Earl Winter's family over decades.

Including ordinary people, on the battlefield of Winter Canyon, more than 200,000 soldiers from both sides were fighting in close combat. Every meter was a bloody battle. The only consolation was that in such a melee battlefield, werewolves lost their agility, while humans were blessed with magic circles.

However, the tall werewolf still has the advantage and is pushing forward the human defense line bit by bit.

boom! ! !
A deafening roar echoed behind the werewolf, and bloodthirsty eyes looked towards the opposite side in the rain of blood. The light of magic was gradually dimming.

"Magic crystal cannon, the power of the dwarves."

Behind the werewolf, the chief of the Suno clan showed a strong fear in his eyes. This human noble actually had the creation that the dwarves were most proud of in his hands.

And... there is more than one.

Roars rang out one after another, and eight magic crystal cannons bombarded the battlefield with terrible magic power. Every time they landed, more than a dozen werewolves would be killed directly and hundreds would be injured. They were too dense.

On the surrounding mountains, crossbows also fell from the watchtowers, and together with the magic crystal cannons, they repelled the advancing werewolves.

The war was still going on, and Beifeng County's request for war assistance was quickly flown to other parts of Beifeng Province.

　After sleeping for two days, I am back to full health!
