Chapter 395: Dancing with Dragons

"Run! Come on!! Iggy urged his people at the back of the group, and although the old, weak, sick and disabled had disappeared into the wind and snow on their own, the speed of the group was still not fast enough.

The howling cold wind wrapped in palm-sized snowflakes poured down from the sky as if they would never stop, and the branches of the trees in the forest creaked with a squeak, and the snow covered the ground was no longer above the instep.

"Don't ...... Stop it. Iki took his wife's hand and ran deep and shallow through the unusually difficult and rough snowy road, towards the far south.

The white snow was everywhere, and the surrounding area was mixed with silent desolation, and the black dead trees were covered with snowflakes, as if a dry corpse was marked on the ground, and in the cold snowfield, Iggy and his party of a dozen people walked with great difficulty, leaving a series of footprints that were quickly covered.

This is a land that has been buried by snow since ancient times.

Iggy had never left the place, he had spent countless winters here, but never had it been as cold as this one.

It's a small tribe of barbarians, and it can even be called miniature, because there are only a dozen of them, including the Iggy family.

Of course, the barbarians are the name of the crows, and they themselves prefer to call themselves ancestors.

The leader of the outside of the city had gathered everyone to take the Great Wall not long ago, but not everyone obeyed the call and left, and a small tribe like Iggy obviously did not.

Of course, the Great Wall was not defeated, it was the last line of defense that the ancestors and the Green Prophet jointly built to defend against the white ghosts, and of course it would not be conquered by a group of descendants of the ancestors who had long since declined.

Iggy didn't want to go to the other side of the Wall. Perhaps many people think. But he didn't want to. He has grown up outside the Saiwai since he was a child and has lived for more than ten years, and if he suddenly changes a piece of land, he may not be able to adapt to it.

But he knew why the leader wanted to attack the Great Wall, because the strange spirits were coming!

It may not be possible to believe the news of the arrival of the strange ghosts, but no one can deny that the existence of the strange ghosts, the Great Wall, which has prevented them from returning to their homeland for countless years, is the best proof of this.

Iggy knows what a stranger is. From ancient tales passed down from generation to generation, in the former Outer Fortress, the Wraith is a very terrifying creature with wisdom, infinite strength, and cannot be injured by any weapon.

But he didn't believe that the strangers were coming, just as he didn't believe that the strangers would attack in a big way.

Although they still retain the custom of burning corpses, no one has ever seen real strangers, who have disappeared for countless years, disappearing into the icy snow.

But not so long ago. That perception has finally changed.

Just like a normal morning, Iggy opened his eyes. Thinking about food for the day, he needs to feed his wife and three children, but the animals outside the plug are as scarce and more cunning as sunny days.

And just as the day was just beginning, a man suddenly stumbled in from outside the village, it was the old man who had left yesterday, and he had returned.

The rules outside the Saiwai are like most bitter cold places, the old, weak, sick and disabled who become a burden will automatically leave the village, and of course they will not survive after leaving, but more people will not be able to live if they stay.

Most of their corpses will not be burned, because the snow field is very dangerous, leaving it is almost a farewell, and their relatives certainly do not kill them in advance to burn the corpses, that ...... It's crazy.

This was the case with this dying old barbarian, but he was covered in blood, had formed a red ice ballast, and his breath was already close to nothing.

But before he died, Iggy could hear the two words he spit out, White Ghost!

Even if this was not enough to convince Iggy, then what happened next was a definitive proof that the corpse of the old barbarian was moving again under his gaze, and he even faintly saw the figure of a horse riding on the high cliff opposite in the wind and snow.

The Strange Ghost is coming! This time, Iggy didn't believe it.

Iggy, who reacted, quickly led the people around him to flee together, and he didn't even bother to pack up the things in the tent, the white ghosts were fast, and the evil creatures they created were even faster.

They need to flee south, Iggy doesn't know why, but the north must already be a place for strangers, and he has never heard of a place where creatures survive after a stranger passes by.

"Whew, whew." Surrounded by the heavy wheezing of their wives, their little daughter was separated in the wind and snow, but they didn't have time to stop and look for it.

The group stumbled, relying solely on the barbarian instincts of years of living outside the fortress to discern the direction and avoid the deadly traps beneath the snow.

"I ...... I can't run anymore. Several barbarians, who were a little older and had lost their physique, said weakly, feeling like their lungs were about to explode, and the ribs on both sides seemed to be broken.

They had already made a quick morning journey, but they were still half a day's way from the Great Wall.

"We ...... No...... Stop it. Iggy gasped intermittently, "They'll catch up." ”

"No, it won't." One of the barbarians stopped and rested on the trunk of a tree with his hand, his heavy clothes had long been dyed white by the snow, as if they were coated with white dye, "If they try to kill us, we can't run at all." ”

"They don't target us at all, and they don't go out of their way to chase us." Another barbarian also interjected, they really didn't have a body, even a strong barbarian couldn't go through a morning of running in the snow.

"Okay." Iggy hesitated, "Then let's stop here for a while, but we must get to the Great Wall before dark, at least near it." ”

Although it is almost impossible to cross the Great Wall, it is much better than staying here and waiting to die, only the warmer the south, the safer it will be, as for how to deal with the crows in the Great Wall, only then can we talk about it.

Iggy's idea was good, and it was so fast that they didn't even have to think about how to cross the Wall, because they had no future.

A dozen people, including Iggy, who were resting, suddenly heard a hoarse roar, "Quack! Quack! The scream even shook the snowflakes off the dead trees around them.

A sense of unease arose in Iggy's heart, the animal's cry was something they had never heard before, and there seemed to be some danger hidden in the voice, "Go, go!" ”

While looking up at the sky in the distance, he pushed and urged the people around him, but in fact, he didn't need to urge, these people also sensed the danger and were ready to continue to flee for their lives.

But it was too late.

Not far behind these men, a huge black shadow suddenly burst out from the horizon, so large that it obscured the sun in the sky. (To be continued......) R1292
