Chapter 226 Hide the Fangs and Claws and Arrive at the Great Wall(1/2)
Woo...
A long horn sounded, and the sleeping Eddard Stark, Bunyan, Jon Snow and others quickly woke up.
They knew the rules of the night watchmen and knew that if the horn sounded twice, they would be in big trouble.
However, there are more than a thousand soldiers in Castle Black at the moment, and they are confident that they can defend the place.
"We need to send people to the other three fortresses early, otherwise there will be problems if other places fall." Ed Stark thought to himself, then put on his armor, put on his cloak and went out.
As soon as he went out, he saw his younger brother Benjen and Jon Snow already coming out.
"Who attacked?"
Yoren, the wandering crow on duty, bit his head: "I don't know yet!"
Because Castle Black lacks soldiers, Yoren, who has been escorting the Night's Watch recruits in the Seven Kingdoms, happened to come back, so he temporarily stayed in the middle of Castle Black.
Zhizhi~
The simple elevator rope stirred, and Jarman Buckwell, who was scouting on the Great Wall, came down breathlessly: "Many strangers came over, and they are very strange!"
"strangeness?"
Jarman Buckwell said with a face that was almost frozen: "Yes, more than twenty weird people arrived at Castle Black, including two of them. We have never seen the other people's costumes. They are almost in despair."
The entrance to the Great Wall!”
The Great Wall of Despair is too high, up to 213 meters. It is impossible to communicate clearly at such a high distance. Everyone can only shout in the passage tunnel of Castle Black!
Ed asked in a raised voice: "Is it a White Walker?"
Soon, the words of the night watchman came from the tunnel of Castle Black: "My lord, they are not White Walkers. They look like humans, but they are covered by armor and cannot see their appearance!"
"I saw it. Those were Commander Carter Pike and Chit? They actually came with these strangers!"
"They are covered in armor, so they can't see clearly."
Ed frowned slightly: "Open the two gates. Let them in and ask what's going on!"
"Your Excellency, the people inside the door can ask."
Ed thought for a moment, then nodded: "Okay! If anything goes wrong, let us know immediately."
Bunyan nodded, and then spoke to the brother on duty in the tunnel.
At this moment, the 200 cavalrymen from the North and more than 500 soldiers from Hearth City have all woken up.
They are powerful in numbers and have strong soldiers and horses!
I don't care about the 20 strangers outside at this moment.
The order was conveyed, and then Carter Pike, who was outside the Black End Great Wall, suddenly turned ugly when he heard that Chen Mu and others were not allowed to enter, and only Carter and Qi Qi were allowed to enter.
"Gentlemen, the people inside are too vigilant. Please wait for a moment. I will ask them to apologize to you later."
Chen Mu shook his head indifferently.
After watching Carter Pike and his bachelor assistant strangely enter Castle Black, they looked curiously at the Great Wall of Despair, which is more than 200 meters high.
“What a spectacular sight!”
"Without thawing for thousands of years, it's really cold in the north!"
"It is indeed one of the seven wonders of the world of ice and fire. The 200-meter-high Great Wall of Ice and Snow. How crazy!"
Bian Zhuang grinned: "It's also difficult for these people to deal with extraordinary creatures like the White Walkers. Only such a high city wall can give them a sense of security!"
Chen Mu also chuckled.
These days, they have confirmed the combat effectiveness of the people of Westeros through insinuations.
The current timeline is also confirmed.
The plot of Ice and Fire should be about to begin.
In terms of personal strength, the individual strength of human warriors is very high.
It's a pity that they lack the inheritance of extraordinary power.
Their top combat power is not outstanding.
There is no such thing as fighting spirit, sword spirit, or vampire.
The elite knights couldn't even defeat the soldiers who had just joined the Spring Breeze Squadron.
The strength of the Dongfeng team is completely crushing.
But there are gods in this world, and there are all kinds of weird magic.
For example, there are shadow magic that is difficult to guard against, as well as the troublesome strangler, Tears of Lys, and assassins who can change their faces. They are all existences that are difficult to guard against.
In the original novel, the assassins who cut off other people's faces will gain access to the deceased's lifetime memories, which they fear the most.
Before they can accurately deal with all kinds of weird black magic and various poisons, they need to hide their fangs and claws.
…
The iron door outside the Great Wall opened, and Carter Pike and his bachelor assistant Qi Qi walked in.
Zhila~
The iron gate then closed without hesitation.
Du Lun and Fatty Abby, who were on duty in the tunnel, came over: "Commander Carter, why don't you see Mr. Xiong and the others? Who are the strangers outside?"
Carter looked slightly depressed: "We have encountered a White Walker. Has Maester Aemon woke up? I want to report the situation to him."
"White Walkers? Are there really such ghosts?" Duren's face turned pale.
Abby snorted coldly: "What are you afraid of? Isn't it the White Walkers?"
Duren swallowed his dry saliva: "Do you know the White Walkers? They are very terrifying existences!"
"What are you afraid of? We have the Great Wall!"
The bachelor's assistant waved his hand in a strange and impatient manner: "Okay, stop talking nonsense, send a code and ask the people inside to open the second or third door. Otherwise, the distinguished guests outside will not be able to wait!"
Seeing that Carter and Qi Qi were impatient, the two night watchmen quickly said with a smile: "Okay, we'll send the signal now."
Why Carter and Qi Qi came here is naturally because all the ravens died and the horses also ran a lot in the last battle.
Chen Mu put away some special equipment, so the marching speed of the large army became super slow.
A few days ago, Xiong Lao was afraid that Black Castle was in a hurry, so he asked Carter and Qi Qi to come over and deliver the news.
Then Chen Mu decided to show his favor to the Night Watch, so he escorted Carter back to Castle Black!
Opening the city gate, Carter and the two saw Benjen Stark and Eddard Stark, Duke of Winterfell, as well as a large number of northern soldiers behind them.
Carter looked slightly happy.
Bunyan quickly came over and hugged him: "I'm worried about you. Who are those people outside?"
"They are good brothers of the Night's Watch!"
The two hugged each other, and Carter saluted Ed again: "Dear Duke Ed, thank you to the North for your hard work in sending reinforcements."
Ed showed the northern etiquette in a decent manner: "Mr. Xiong and the others have lost contact for several days. Is it safe now? Why did you come alone?"
Carter cleared his throat: "It's a long story. The twenty brothers outside are all our own, not outsiders. Please let them in!"
Ed and others looked at each other: "They wear closed helmets. I'm not sure if they are White Walkers!"
Qi Qi was surprised and said: "White Walkers, no, Sir Duke, they are not White Walkers, they are our life-saving heroes!"
"Indeed, Your Majesty Duke, if it hadn't been for the treatment from outside, we would have been completely wiped out..."
Carter briefly recounted what he had experienced in the past few days.
Hearing that nearly half of the Night's Watch legion had been lost, he was immediately worried. Hearing that it was with the help of Chen Mu that he defeated the White Walkers and even captured a White Walker, he was immediately surprised!
Ed asked: "Where are Mr. Xiong and the others?"
"Mr. Xiong and the others are still two days away from us and are expected to arrive tomorrow."
Qi Qi also stretched out his hand: "Your Majesty the Duke, Lord Chief Ranger, please let me contact Maester Aemon and send ravens to contact the Seven Kingdoms as soon as possible. We will bring the wights to the south soon."
Benyan looked solemn, but Jon Snow, who was watching silently next to him, was full of excitement.
Ed's long and fat face was full of complex expressions: "Winter is coming!"
"Open the passage and let in the foreign visitors who have helped the brothers of the Night Watch. We will send soldiers to rescue them."
Carter coughed: "Well, Mr. Xiong and the others are safe and don't need rescue!"
Thinking about what Carter said to Qi Qi just now, Ed's face froze slightly: "Well, I also want to see what the White Walkers are!"
When they heard that they wanted to see the White Walkers, Carter and Qi Qi looked at each other.
The screams of the White Walkers that came from the Easterners' tents a few days ago came to their minds.
The two of them shuddered involuntarily!
The three gates leading to the outside of the Black Castle from the Black Castle opened. Chen Mu and others took off their helmets and slowly walked into the Black Castle.
Following the torches, more than twenty people passed through the long and narrow tunnel and entered the southern part of the north.
Chen Mu lowered his head and looked at several electronic devices in his hands.
The recording device and timing device are all working fine.
Chen Mu raised his hand. Bian Zhuang next to him scratched his head in confusion after seeing what Chen Mu had in his hand.
His eyes seemed to say "Isn't there any magic in the Wall?"
Chen Mu shook his head, passed through the third gate, and saw a large number of heavily guarded people standing in front of them.
