Chapter 2579 (1/2)

In the ice and snow, there is only a vast expanse of white in front of people's eyes. Even those tall and straight giant pines can only see a faint shadow in the snowstorm weather.

The horse's hooves were kicking in the snow, but the sound could hardly be heard by the knight, because the howling wind seemed to cover up all traces of activity.

Will thought that the vast black wasteland, which was called ghost forest by the south, could not be feared by him.

But tonight was an obvious exception.

When the snowstorm comes in the north, it is enough to make anyone aware of their own insignificance and powerlessness.

For nine days, wearing black hooded cloaks, they rode lightly out of the great wall and turned northwest in the middle, biting the footprints of a group of savages.

But the environment is getting worse and worse, and tracking is becoming more and more difficult.

”Let's go back. Anyway, the savage is dead.”

In the wind, Gary, a veteran, whispered to the red haired captain at the front of the line.

Will has been a night watchman for four years. He is already a veteran with hundreds of patrol experience. However, Gary has 40 years of experience and is a real veteran.

”Where is the evidence?” The knight at the front of the team turned and asked his deputy.

”Will saw it.” With a stiff smile, Gary threw the problem at the young man.

In fact, from three days ago, we couldn't see any living things that could move except ourselves. Today, such a terrible snowstorm will only kill ourselves, others and savages together.

It's not worth it, but it's hard to break orders.

Mormon's order was to track down the savages, so he sent this team. However, it was less than half a year since Sir Weimar swore to be a night watchman. This was his first patrol, and he was eager to make contributions.

If you know that the new leader of the team is a joke when everyone drinks, you will understand why he is eager to prove himself.

When the former aristocratic status can not bring authority, only strength is the value of Northern Territory.

The red haired Knight held the reins of the horse, and the thin brown horse on his crotch was so tired that he couldn't find any fodder these days.

”Will, tell me again what do you see? Don't leave out any details. ”

Sir Weimar took the opportunity to wipe the frost off his beard and asked the young knight on the flank behind him.

”They went in this direction. Maybe they could see it when they crossed the ridge. There was a depression over there, which was the most sheltered place nearby. Occasionally, some people saw savages there, but I didn't see them freeze to death with my own eyes this time.”

Jazz pursed a look at Gary, with some dissatisfaction in his eyes, while the latter looked at will in the same way, as if complaining about why he had nothing to look for.

But veterans have their own story.

”Sir, there is no fire nearby. Living people can't stand the temperature without lighting a fire. Savages are also human beings.”

”No, they are monsters. Savages will take away babies and women and sell them to white ghosts.” ”I will not allow myself to return empty handed on my first patrol. Anyway, I want their head,” he said

The wind and snow became bigger, but the sky and the earth were not dim, because the aurora above the head kept twisting, bringing colorful lighting.

Gary and will don't want to look for anything, but at this point, the captain gives the order, so they have to do it. This is the watchman's rule.

The snow at the foot of the mountain was very thick, and they didn't know where to pass. So the three men got off their horses, tied them to the big stones protruding from the ground, and chose to go over the mountain on foot.
