By the moat in the north of the Twin Forts in Twin River City, the people gathered here became agitated because they could not enter the city. Thousands of people yelled and threw mud at the city wall.
"Should we open the city gate?" Edmure panicked.
If the city is not opened, these Frey family members will be locked up outside their castle by Edmure, and the news will spread that the Duke's prestige will be damaged. If the city is opened, in case the Frey family members have served vampires, there will be a huge crowd in the Twins.
Let's have a massacre.
No other riverland nobles on the city wall answered. It was not a wise decision to stand up at this time. None of them wanted to let these people into the city.
"We still can't see their true purpose, let's buy time!" Only Edmure's good brother Thoros had an idea, and he had nothing to do with the nobles of the Riverlands.
Listening to the yelling and cursing under the city wall, the troubled Edmure finally made up his mind: "Close the city gate tightly. If they make any move, the archers will attack immediately!"
The Freys and soldiers could not cross the moat, and it was even impossible to swim across the river or climb up the city wall. For the first time, the Freys felt the despair brought about by the tall walls of their home.
They did not run away, knowing that they could not outrun the vampires without horses, and the only way to survive was to enter the Twins City. Soon, outside the northern moat of the Twins City, the crowd gathered outside the moat stopped yelling and began to look for wild vegetables and weeds to satisfy their hunger.
"Edmure! You are going to die!" Edwin Frey, who was thin, pale, with a pointed nose and straight black hair, began to name and curse the Duke.
"My great-grandfather Frey is dead! My grandfather is dead, my father is dead, and I am now the heir to the Twins! Edmure, please open the city gate quickly!"
The suspension bridge at his city gate was never lowered. After a while, he got tired of scolding and quietly retreated into the crowd.
There were still people running out of the woods, and more people gathered by the moat. Although there was no family crest and flag, people who were familiar with each other gradually gathered together. More and more members of the Frey family appeared in Edwin Foley's house.
Beside Lei.
Out of sight and out of mind, Edmure on the city wall called Thoros and led a few knights into the city.
The lobby of Twin River City is very small, a bit like a small church. In addition to rows of tables and chairs, there is also a circle of lofts on the second floor that overlook the lobby.
As soon as Edmure entered, he sat on the huge black oak chair that was Old Frey's favorite. He instantly lost his energy and weakly asked Thoros: "How long until our support arrives?"
Soros casually found a bench near the main seat and sat down: "Except for the Frey family, the nobles of the Riverlands are all in the south. It will take some time to come along the King's Road."
"Hey!" Edmure sighed: "Can we retreat to the south?"
"No, the north city is blocked by the Frey family, and the south is full of farmland and swamps. If these Freys are really vampire servants, we can't outrun them." Thoros lay down on the bench and closed his eyes to rest.<
/p>
"We are trapped here! Damn it! When will Werther come to rescue us?" Now the only one who can come to rescue is the fastest dragon, Edmure asked with a glimmer of hope.
Thoros with his eyes closed: "Witt went to the Great Wall of the North. If the Great Wall is destroyed, the entire continent will be over. Edmure, you should know the priorities. Our weapons are plated with silver. There is no problem in dealing with vampires. As long as we persist for a while, etc.
Support from the Knights of the West has arrived."
Edmure shouted to embolden himself: "There are only five hundred knights in the West, how can they deal with thousands of people outside?"
If Edmure continued to do this, it would affect the morale of the army. Soros did not sleep anymore. He got up and walked to the center of the hall and glared at Edmure. He lit up his hands with flames and clenched his fists on his chest: "Those thousands of people without armor, Qyburn and I used all kinds of weapons."
With all their strength, two people can kill them all!"
Thoros is really not lying. Thoros's flames and Qyburn's summons are really one-hit death for ordinary people without armor. Not to mention that magicians acting alone can still use them without considering accidental injuries.
Large-scale group attack magic.
"I hope so! You need to rest first, and the rest of the battle will depend on you." Edmure was really worried about his own life. If he went to war with someone, if he lost and surrendered, he could get money to redeem his life.
Fight monsters and either die or become food, or turn into monsters and be killed by others.
The Frey family and Edmure were in a stalemate in the Twins City. After a night, the next morning, Edmure was still sleeping and was awakened by people in the city.
"Open the city gate quickly! Open the city gate quickly!"
Edmure hurriedly put on his clothes and ran out of the bedroom. He saw all the soldiers in the city running towards the city wall. He quickly grabbed a soldier who was holding a large bundle of arrows and asked: "What happened? Who did it?"
Order to open the city gate?"
"It's an order from Master Thoros! The vampires are coming!" The soldier looked anxious. After answering, he held the missing arrow and ran towards the city wall.
"That's not possible." Seeing the soldiers running away, Edmure was just about to curse, when loud shouts of killing came from outside the city, mixed with the cries of women and children.
Why are there still women and children? Knowing that things had changed, Edmure also ran towards the city wall.
The soldiers held their shields against the battlements. The busy soldiers dropped bundles of arrows. The kerosene filled the aisles. There were also soldiers wrapping linen cloth around the palms of the archers. This was preparation for defending the city, Edmure.
Looking at the busy crowd, then looking at Soros in the distance.
The surrounding soldiers were far away from Thoros. With his long sword on the ground, he stood alone on the battlements, fireballs shooting from his hands into the distance.
The fireball pulled out a plume of smoke and flew over the heads of the restless crowd, flew over the grass, and exploded in front of a group of monsters.
Boom! There were loud explosions, and the composite magic combined with fire and wind produced a violent explosion. When the flames dissipated, the monsters were not hurt at all.
Outside the woods about one kilometer away from Twin River City, there are nearly three hundred vampires in monster shapes. The one with blue skin standing at the front is the leader.

It is taller than other vampires, nearly three meters tall. It holds a two-handed battle ax in one hand. It is bare-chested and only wears a short skirt made of fur. Its back is decorated with five wooden spines. Each spine is
They were all wearing human heads, and one of them was Old Frey, whose eyes were gouged out and his jaw was wide open.
It was also holding a human in its other hand, and the vampires just threw the human in their hands to block the explosive fireball.
The vampire leader put the human in his hand to his mouth and bit it. While sucking the blood, he raised his battle ax and pointed it at Thoros on the city wall. In an instant, more than a dozen blood-red magic balls flew out of the array.
The magic ball exploded on the city wall.
Thoros, who had already jumped off the city wall, said to Edmure: "The distance is too far, and the magic attacks of both the enemy and us will not be very effective."
Thoros leaned over and looked at the city gate suspension bridge that had been lowered: "They cannot recover their bodies and magic power during the day, and they will definitely attack the city tonight. Now, they will only send human servants to consume us."
Edmure followed his line of sight and saw that the Freys were swarming into the city. The drawbridge was crowded with people. Some of the unlucky ones were pushed off the drawbridge and fell into the moat. The people crowding in front of the drawbridge were all young men.
, on the outside, the old, weak, sick, disabled, women and children who had just fled back to Twin River City last night were all trying their best to squeeze towards the suspension bridge.
After drinking the blood, the vampire leader threw the mummy aside, raised his hand, and the other vampires immediately roared loudly into the woods.
Another group of people came out of the woods. They were holding wooden spears, and some were wearing armor and holding exquisite long swords. The coat of arms on their robes showed that they were members of the Frey family and knights loyal to the Frey family.
and soldiers.
"Kill!"
"Take back the Twins!"
A group of Freys and soldiers rushed towards the Twins, as if they were the righteous party.
"These scum! They betrayed humanity! They all deserve to die! Archers are ready to cover the people entering the city!"
After entering the city, Edwin Frey rushed to the city wall to find Edmure. With red eyes, he grabbed Edmure's armor and shouted loudly: "Why are you opening the city gate now? All my people are dead!"
”
"Take your claws away!" Thoros stretched out his hand and pinched Edwin's wrist, and slightly mobilized his magic power. The flames burned and Edwin quickly retracted his hands.
Frey, who had just entered the city, looked at Edmure fiercely, wishing to kill him one by one. Edmure looked at the group of people in front of him and didn't know how to explain: "If it were you, you would do the same thing!"<
/p>
"You are not worthy of being the Duke of the Riverlands!" Seeing that there were not as many people as him in Edmure, the angry Edwin finally shouted these words. When the people behind him heard this, they began to draw their swords.
Seeing that Edmure was about to be splashed with blood, Harry Bracken also drew his sword and pulled Edmure behind him to protect him.
"What are you doing!" Thoros ignited flames all over his body to attract the attention of both parties: "The vampire is outside the city, and you are fighting among yourself!"
Edwin shouted loudly: "I am the Lord of the Twins City now! This Edmure wants to lock us up outside the city and die, why can't we kill him?"
"Yes!" More and more Freys and their knight soldiers climbed up to the city wall, squeezing the riverland soldiers brought by Edmure until they could not move.
"Look, the crowd is furious!" Edwin raised his sword and pointed at Edmure, who was being protected by more than a dozen people.
Thoros pointed to the human servants outside the city who were killing the Twins: "The Frey family has betrayed mankind, and this debt has not yet been settled for you! King Robert ordered to investigate you, and the person who came to support from the West is Jaime Lannis.
"Hey, Edmure came to save you with a large number of riverland nobles, and this is how you repay him?"
Edwin was a little worried when he heard that it was the king's order and people from the west were coming. At this time, his brother Petyr Frey leaned into his ear and whispered: "There are many people who want to replace Edmure. Today it is you."
The best chance is that his death can be said to have been caused by a vampire."
Edwin wiped away the wet long black hair from his eyes, raised his head and straightened his chest and looked at Edmure: "Edmure has lost his virtue, even if the king comes, he has to give us an explanation for the Frey family!"
Bang! Thoros flew up and kicked Edwin to the ground.
Edwin, who fell to the ground, yelled: "Master Thoros, do you want to take care of our internal affairs in the Riverlands?"
Thoros drew out his sword, golden flames flowed to the sword, and pointed at Edwin: "Jaime and Edmure brought people to save you, and the person who came with the king's order is Vit Baratheon! You
Are you sure you want to take action against Werther's commander Edmure?"
Thoros leaned down and stared into Edwin's eyes again and lowered his voice: "I can guarantee that when Witte, who just rode a dragon to the Great Wall not long ago, hears the news, he will immediately fight back to the Twins, leaving no Frey behind.
!"
"The knights and soldiers of the Frey family are now under the command of Master Thoros." Edwin suddenly turned from furious to smiling.
The king wants fame, but he has never massacred a city. The Frey family can deal with it, and the West also has a good relationship with the Frey family. It is Werther, the king's younger brother, who doesn't want a reputation but has actually massacred a city.
Just do it, and there will be more than one.
Seeing this, Edmure also nodded towards Soros. Now that the enemy is facing the enemy, it is not the time to fight for power, so Soros can be trusted.
The top commander of the Twins City was changed from Edmure to the assassin Thoros. The archers' arrows blocked most of the vampire servants, but some of the slower ones were still caught.
Preliminary statistics show that there are about 2,500 people who fled into the city. Soros quickly assigned tasks, and everyone had to participate in defending the city. Women, children, the old, weak, sick and disabled were responsible for carrying supplies, and young and strong men took up arms.
All defended on the city wall.
The attack did not stop. The attacker was also Frey, who was also very familiar with the terrain here. After seeing everyone fleeing into the city, the suspension bridge was raised, and they began to organize the siege. Their siege did not require the use of trebuchets or trebuchets.
You only need to consume the troops defending the city during the day, and at night, the vampires will use magic to attack the city.
The weapons of the army led by Edmure were all made of silver, but the more than 2,000 people who came back with Frey all had ordinary weapons. They could only use fire to deal with the vampires. By the afternoon, all the wood in the Twins City was piled under the city wall.
The women then began to dismantle the furniture.
There were too many people on the siege side, and they exchanged bows and arrows with the defenders. The casualties on both sides were increasing.
"Edwin can't stay!" Harry said to Edmure.
"I know, but we can't kill him now. Once he dies, the other Freys will no longer obey orders." Edmure looked at the injured soldiers who were dragged away. The number of people on the city wall gradually decreased, and the soldiers he brought were less than the number of soldiers he brought with him.
The gap in the number of people in Frei is even bigger.
"I have a way." Harry leaned into Edmure's ear.
Edmure nodded after hearing this. He didn't know if it could be done. Now he could only leave it to Harry, the heir of the Bracken family, to do it: "Okay, if it succeeds, I will clear his name!"
The battle to defend the city continued until night.
It was getting dark, and the soldiers on the city wall were very tired. They cheered up again under Thoros's call. The next wave of attacks would not be bows and arrows, but vampires.
Clusters of torches were lit, and silver daggers and silver-coated weapons, as well as these torches, were all weapons used to deal with monsters climbing up the city wall.
"Get down!"
Hundreds of blood-red magic balls flew towards the Twins City. With so much magic, a few soldiers still did not escape the aftermath of the explosion, and their limbs stained by magic quickly withered.
Hiss
The roar of monsters was heard in the distance, and the vampires launched a charge.
Seeing the monster grabbing the city wall with its sharp claws and about to rush onto the city wall, Thoros raised his sword and shouted: "For mankind!"
"For humanity!"
"Kill!"
The brutal close combat begins. Vampires have magic, claws and weapons, and are agile and powerful, but they are also divided into high and low levels. Humans have silver weapons to restrain them, and flames that they dare not approach. For a time,
Twin River City is full of people and monsters fighting.
The figure and sword covered in flames stood out at night, and were besieged by more than a dozen vampires at the same time. The flaming sword swung, cutting off the head of a vampire, and then a bolt of lightning jumped out, piercing four or five vampires in a row.
The vampire also had weapons. A long sword came from behind Thoros, but he barely dodged it and pierced his shoulder. Another magic attack blew Thoros into the moat.
"Si"
A dozen more vampires jumped off the city wall. They knew that Thoros was not dead yet and continued to attack him.
The two races fought endlessly, and Edmure was also furious. When the knight next to him slashed a vampire to the ground, he immediately took out his dagger and stabbed it randomly. The Frey family members were also fighting desperately,
Various magical lights burst out from the moat from time to time, and Thoros was still fighting a dozen vampires on the river at the same time.
The Freys who betrayed humanity dragged trees from distant woods and made simple stairs to climb across the moat.
"Retreat to the main city!"
"Retreat to the main city!"
There were many casualties, and the defense became increasingly difficult. Thoros, covered in blood, climbed up the city wall. He defeated the vampire, but his magic power was exhausted and his body was seriously injured.
In the dark night, there are fewer and fewer torches on the Twin River City. The human shouts in the city gradually disappear, and the cries of children and women hiding in the buildings can be heard.
"Are we going to die here today?" Edmure was also covered in blood.
Thoros picked up the sword with difficulty, and Harry and Harry stood in front of Edmure, looking at the vampire in front of him: "At least we have never betrayed humans!"
There were less than 10 fires left in Twin River City. In the dark night, the surviving warriors gathered nearby to prepare for the final battle.
Boom
Soros has the best ears: "Do you listen?"
Boom
"It's the sound of horse hooves!" Edmure turned his head and looked east.
Harry shouted: "It's the Knight of the West!"
Five hundred knights from the West stepped out of the woods, formed a triangular formation and charged towards the people outside Twin River City.
With the rumble of horse hooves, the raised spear, and the golden-red armor, the knights from the West arrived to support.
At the front of the cavalry triangular formation, a white horse was the vanguard. On the horse's back, an old man wearing a white robe, with white hair and beard flowing in the wind, raised the wand in his hand. In an instant, the dazzling white light illuminated the entire Twin River City, as if
The Holy Light is coming.
"Kill these bastards!" the white-robed mage cursed. Pieces of white human bones appeared on his body to form a pair of skeleton armor. Two huge skeleton giants appeared on both sides of him, waving giant axes made of human bones.
