At the entrance to the main castle of Winterfell, Bloodwind's gray wolf fur stood on end, his ears were straight open, his big fluffy tail was raised high, and he howled loudly, showing a majestic attitude.
As for the other five puppy-like direwolves, their limbs are on the ground, their wolf fur is smooth, and their ears and tails are drooped, showing their submission.
"Robb, is this your Bloodwind?"
Ed, who had always kept his emotions secret, was really shocked by the growth rate of Blood Wind this time.
"Yes, Father. It...can eat and sleep, and it grows faster."
Robb first nodded to confirm, then hesitated for a moment before speaking out the words he had thought of.
Ed nodded and used his eyes to stop Caitlin who wanted to ask questions, as well as the other children who wanted to pester Robb, and said: "Go! Robb, we are waiting for you to come back!"
"Yes! Father, mother, I'll take my leave first."
Seeing that Eddard did not ask any more questions, Robb paid his parents a courtesy and then headed towards the school grounds with the bloody wind gradually calming down.
"Well, Robb is a loser, and so is his Bloodwind. Nymeria, you should eat more and grow up quickly!"
"Pfft, Arya, I'm afraid no matter how much it eats, it will still be about the same as you."
Seeing Robb walking away with the majestic blood wind, Arya knelt down and picked up her direwolf, thinking to herself.
When Sansa heard her words, she covered her mouth and laughed, teasing her naughty sister.
When Arya heard this, she rolled her eyes and returned to the main castle alone with Nymeria in her arms.
"Jon, what I said can only be deceived by Arya and Rickon! Why can Bloodwind grow so fast?"
Brandon asked as he tugged on Jon's sleeve.
Jon's handsome face was full of thoughts. He looked at Brandon who asked him, smiled and shook his head, saying that he didn't know how to answer.
Caitlin heard the words of her children behind her. She put her hand on Ed's shoulder and whispered: "Ned, Robb said something like this that even a child would not believe. He was clearly telling us that he has his own
Secret?"
"Kate, my son has grown up!"
Ed did not answer his wife's question.
He used his rough hands to cover the small white hands on his shoulders, and said a meaningful word with a smile on his lips.
When Robb arrived at the school grounds, all the guards were already wearing armor in the style of their respective families, standing beside their horses and waiting.
They were only slightly surprised when they saw the majestic Blood Wind, because they didn't know its extraordinary growth speed.
Theon was holding two horses by himself. When he saw Robb, he stepped forward and handed him the reins of one of the horses. At the same time, he exclaimed in disbelief: "Robb, is this wolf Bloodwind? Who is that?"
The wolf cub that was rescued a few days ago?"
"It was ten days ago, yes, it was Blood Wind."
Robb took the reins of the war horse, whispered a reply to Theon, then turned to the guards and said loudly,
"You should already understand this mission, now mount up and set off!"
"As you command! Lord Robb!"
With a neat reply, the thirty-two people, including Robb, stepped onto their horses in unison, their movements clean and neat, very handsome.
After Robb and his group of knights filed out of the north gate of Winterfell, they accelerated towards the long lake in the northeast, with Bloodwind running beside Robb.
Xue Feng, who had been holding back in the bedroom for a while, was finally able to run as much as he wanted and began to unleash his wild instincts.
…
At the junction of the southwest side of the Long Lake and the Wolf Wood, Jory and more than 190 soldiers from Winterfell were stationed in a temporary camp.
After riding for half a day, Robb and his party arrived at the temporary camp.
"A few days ago, the Bolton family sent a raven message, saying that it was a group of forty or fifty wildlings who, through unknown means, bypassed Castle Black and the City of Last Hearth and attacked the security posts in their territory and nearby villages.
The Earl of the Dreadfort and Lord Luce personally led hundreds of horsemen to besiege them, but they broke through early and fled to the territory of our Stark family.
By the way, the defecting soldier we killed before was the one guarding the post."
After Robb and Robb met and exchanged greetings, Jory couldn't wait to introduce the situation.
"Lord Ed ordered me to bring two hundred cavalry to destroy them, but these savages were very cunning. After noticing us, they ran towards a place that was not conducive to the movement of horses.
After several days of rounding up, they have been trapped in the woods, but the woods are their territory. I took people in without seeing them, so I lost several people.
After reporting to Lord Ed, he asked me to set up camp and wait for your support."
"Captain Qiao Li, no wonder I haven't seen you during this time. It turns out that you are conquering the savages. Well, I already know the general situation. From now on, I will take over the mission of this expedition."
"Of course!"
As Robb chatted and laughed with Jory, he took control in his hands.
He looked at the green forest and murmured, "But this time you will be the assistants."
…
In a flat green space somewhere in the Wolf Forest, in a camp made of simple tents,
A group of savages wrapped in ragged furs and with murderous looks on their faces were sitting around, discussing.
"If you ask me, if I rush into their camp after dark today and kill them indiscriminately, those Southerners will be nothing but eggs without their horses and armor."
"Yes! Yes! Ever since we were chased by these southerners on horseback, we haven't slept well or eaten well. Rather than doing this, we might as well take the initiative."
"Yes, it was too easy to kill those southerners before."
"Don't look down on the Southerners. Although most of them are just eggs, there are also many powerful characters. Aren't those crows also Southerners without armor?"
A female savage with a delicate face and messy brown hair wiped her homemade spear while speaking to remind the somewhat complacent savages.
Hearing her words, the savages all fell silent and turned to look at her. From this action, it could be vaguely seen that she was the leader of this group of savages.
The savages all believe in strength and pay attention to the law of the jungle. They can identify with this female savage leader because the female savage has led them to escape death many times.
"Osha, what do you think we should do? If we just wait, let's not talk about the food problem, there will be more and more Southerners outside."
One of the male savages, holding a sharp ax and with a messy beard covering most of his face, asked.
Osha smiled slightly and replied confidently: "What if there are more Southerners? Our world is in the forest. If they dare to come here and fight with us, they are seeking death."
We really couldn’t defeat it, so we ran away deep into the forest. No matter how bad the environment inside was, how could it be as bad as the Ghost Forest?"
"That's what we say, but we climbed across the Great Wall desperately because we wanted to live a good life. Is it a good life to hide in the forest all the time?"
"yes!"
"We don't want to hide it forever!"
…
The words of a savage resonated with the companions around him, and they began to talk about it again.
"We won't be trapped for long! As you know, the king in the north has begun to gather an army. Soon, all these southerners will go to help the crows.
Then our good days will come!
All these southern villages will be like pieces of fragrant fat for us to eat as we please!"
