Slaves would cut down tall trees and lay them on the ground with rolling logs. These straight trees would be made into the keels of dragon-headed ships. Although dragon-headed ships made of wood that had not been completely dried could not carry out long voyages, the lords

Hrov didn't seem to care.

When Lord Hrolf announced the raid order, the entire Norse people of East Hamar began to take action. The strong men wielded axes to chop down tree trunks, and the wood chips were flying. The women were not idle either, and they began to weave dragon-headed boats.

The striped sail is a big project and takes half a month to prepare.

"How do they choose human sacrifices?" Su Chen stood outside the lord's house. He curiously said to Ange. The shield girl didn't know why she was inseparable from her now. She told Su Chen that the lord ordered her to be a human sacrifice.

The guard's job is to protect Su Chen's safety. But Su Chen expressed doubts, as he is a wolf slayer. How could Ulf let her protect him, but Ange's Nordic appearance is really cold, handsome, and very eye-catching.

Appearance is justice, so he said nothing more.

"Someone will come out voluntarily." Ange said nonchalantly.

"Voluntary, there are still people who volunteer for this kind of thing?" Su Chen was completely confused. He was put on the altar and slaughtered, but there were still people who volunteered.

"Of course, becoming a sacrifice is an extremely honorable thing, and the soul will enter Valhalla directly." Ange shrugged and explained to Su Chen.

Although Hrov summoned everyone in the name of Suchen, the specific commander of this operation was Vargas. Many warriors had gathered around him to start training. It seems that although the Vikings are more superstitious, they

Very pragmatically, they couldn't really hand over the plan to Su Chen, a warrior who had just escaped from slavery.

"Shield wall." In the open space outside the village, Vargas was holding an iron sword and a round shield. His eyes were sharp and cold, and he roared at the twenty North warriors training in the open space.

"Roar." This group of big-bodied Norse warriors immediately raised their round shields. They lined up in a row and marched in unison to the beat of the drums. Their tall bodies and thick upper and lower round shields advanced like a wall. As you can imagine,

Got it, if a charging enemy suddenly encounters such a wall, they will definitely be stunned.

"I want to participate too." Su Chen watched with excitement. He had always played various horse-and-blade games, but had never really participated. Now he was willing to let this opportunity go, so he strode over.

"?" Vargas frowned when he saw Su Chen walking over. If it weren't for Su Chen, he would be the real commander of this raid.

But Su Chen picked up the round shield and ax that had been placed aside, and walked into the middle of the North warriors. Seeing his arrival, the North warriors were all excited to be able to fight side by side with Wolf the Wolf Slayer.

, it is simply their honor.

"Don't destroy the formation." Vargas looked at Su Chen, who was loved by everyone, and was so angry that he couldn't figure out what to do. He could only continue to let everyone continue to train, hoping to let everyone train.

Su Chen made a fool of himself.

"Roar." The Viking men crowded together. The smell of sweat and Nordic body odor immediately rushed into Su Chen's nostrils, but the smell of rust was as intoxicating as blood. They roared in unison and raised their hands at the same time.

took the shield in his hand.

"Move forward." Vargas, who was standing aside, was extremely serious about training. He raised the sword and shield in his hands, acting as a sergeant major and leading everyone forward.

"Hoo, ho." Su Chen's position was in the middle of the queue. He observed the terrain in front of him through the gap in the round shield, and adjusted his pace and actions in a timely manner. Although it was his first time to join the battle group, he was totally aware of it.

In one body, of course, this is also thanks to the fact that he often plays games such as horse riding and slashing.

"Charge, for Odin, for Valhalla." There were many scarecrows planted in front of the open space. These scarecrows were the imaginary enemies in their training. When Vargas shouted the name of Odin, this was actually

It was a coded signal, which meant disbanding the shield wall and launching a melee charge.

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa," the North Hamar warriors immediately disbanded the shield wall. They charged towards the scarecrow with axes and shields. They hit the scarecrow hard with the round shields in their hands, and then chopped with axes.

In an instant, the neat scarecrow was chopped into pieces.

"I will use your skulls as bowls~~~." Su Chen also held the ax and buckler crazily, and while chopping, he unconsciously shouted the slogans of the Nords, and he was originally tall and burly.

His figure and loud voice immediately echoed through the entire open space, and everyone was stunned and stared at him blankly.

"By the gods, what a terrible wolf-slayer." The North warriors had never heard such a bloody war cry, but after being stunned for a moment, they all started shouting.

"Use your skull as a bowl~~." This war cry was much stronger than the unchanging one for Odin, and the more he shouted, the lighter the ax in his hand became, and all the Norse warriors followed suit.

"Damn it, you are shouting wrong, shut up." Vargas's nose was almost crooked with anger. Viking warriors fought on the battlefield to let the gods see them in order to evaluate their bravery, so they had to

Shouting the name of Odin loudly, but now this group of warriors was completely led astray by Su Chen.

"Pfft." Ange, who was watching from the side, was completely amused by the funny scene in front of her. She couldn't help covering her mouth and laughed. When she looked at Su Chen, she felt even more interesting.

"Ah, you ruined everything." Vargas angrily smashed the shield in his hand to the ground, and cursed at Su Chen.

"What's wrong?" Su Chen looked confused. Wasn't this a good fight?

After the cheerful open space training, Su Chen also exchanged fighting skills with others. He had good physical fitness and quickly learned how to use a shield to block while taking advantage of the opportunity to attack. Unknowingly, the sky gradually became darker.

When it dimmed, they saw a group of people walking out of the dark forest in the distance. The leader was a woman wearing antlers like tree branches and her face painted white. Behind her were a group of bald priests holding various sacred objects.

"It's the prophet, she's here." Someone told Su Chen that this was the prophet who came out of the black forest specifically to preside over human sacrifice activities.

Su Chen followed the people in the village to the altar. In front of the altar stood a statue of Odin, an old man wearing armor and holding an axe.

Lord Hrolf also came with his wife. The lord's wife was very young. In Su Chen's opinion, she was at most seventeen or eighteen years old. She had soft long golden hair and was tightly wrapped in a red fox fur.

, like a ball of flame shining in people's hearts, and her delicate skin and green eyes, when looking at a man, will make the 80-year-old man tremble, and the faint smile on the corner of her mouth, like a winter

Like spring breeze.

"Dong dong dong~~~." The bald priest beat the drum. After hearing the drum, everyone gathered here. The prophetess's hat had exaggerated antlers, and the hanging pearl tassels covered her.

Her face is beautiful, but you can tell just from her chin and lips that she is a beautiful woman.

"Oh woo hoo." When one priest raised his neck and imitated the howl of a wolf, others howled too. Wolves seemed to occupy a unique position in Viking culture.

"Odin, Odin, Odin."

"The sons of Odin do not hesitate to shed blood, and the people of the North Sea do not hesitate to fight. Odin bless us~~~." The prophetess shook her body, and the metal piece hanging on her body shook and made a sound, and she murmured the Viking poem in her mouth

The ancient maxim of man, and then suddenly knelt down towards the statue of Odin.

"Odin~~." All the Norse people knelt down together and worshiped the wooden statue of Odin devoutly.

"Huh." Several iron tong pots filled with whale oil were ignited, and hot blue flames immediately emerged. The light illuminated the Odin wood sculpture and the altar, making it look extremely terrifying.

"Bring all the slaves up." Hrov, who was standing aside, waved his hand and ordered loudly.

Soon, the slaves, including the old man Wayside, were brought up together. They were staggering like a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered. The slaves had fear in their eyes, and some were trembling all over.
