Working Prophet.

Chapter 620

"Stick to it?" Jerome said angrily, "Are you going to just watch the kingdom's soldiers die like this?"

"Of course I don't want to, but it's too dark now, and we don't even know who the enemy is. If we attack rashly, have you considered the consequences of defeat, General Giant?" Prince Ollie said solemnly.

Jerome also knew what Ollie said was right. He was a famous general in the dwarf kingdom, and he was known for his skillful use of soldiers and his calmness.

However, he found that his emotions were a little out of control tonight, mainly because he had led the army for so many years and had never encountered such a bizarre situation.

The sudden appearance of fireballs, white beams of light, and monsters with glowing eyes had completely panicked him, and he gradually calmed down until Ollie reminded him.

Just at this time, the subordinates sent by Aragorn also returned, and brought eight wildlings, who are the leaders of the eight largest wildling tribes in the Dragon's Back Mountain Range.

Because Jerome was always wary of those savages, and he didn't let those savages share a big camp with them.

As a result, the savages didn't suffer any losses at the moment, Jerome asked the tribal leaders.

"Do you know what the monster that attacked us this time is?"

Li Yan, the leader of the Giant Hand tribe, replied, "It's the White Walkers, and their eyes will glow."

"White ghosts?" Jerome was very unfamiliar with this name, and there was a look of doubt in his eyes, "Why have I never heard of it, and you haven't reminded me that there are other ghosts in the mountains."

"That's because the legend of the White Walkers has been around for a long time, and the last time they appeared was thousands of years ago." Qingsui, the leader of the Wildfire Tribe, said, "We didn't expect to see these monsters again."

"Are you sure those things are really White Walkers?" Aragorn on the side couldn't help interjecting, "I have fought against them, except for a pair of glowing eyes, they look no different from ordinary humans. "

"That's because they were originally human beings, or they were human beings during their lifetime."

This time it was Dabu, the leader of the Broken Star Tribe who spoke, and he continued according to Li Yu's previous teaching.

"Most of the white ghosts are transformed by humans, and there is often a ghost king among a group of white ghosts, and it is the ghost king who turns other people into similar appearances to him through curses.

"By the way, places where strange ghosts haunt are often accompanied by strange beams of light and fireballs."

Jerome felt that something was wrong, but seeing the savages all swearing, he finally accepted this statement.

Then he asked, "Do you know how to deal with those... um, White Walkers?"

"White ghosts can't be killed." Li Yan said solemnly, "Because they are already dead, even if they are knocked down now, they will get up from the ground again in a short time.

"The only way to kill them completely is to use a wooden spear made of cedar and pierce their heart."

"It's too difficult." Aragorn said immediately after hearing the words, "Many of them are still wearing armor."

Jerome also thought it was a terrible idea, but the White Walkers were menacing, and if they were impossible to kill, as the wildlings said, they would be in big trouble.

In addition, there were cedar trees around them, so Jerome sent several teams to cut down the trees, intending to make some wooden spears temporarily.

In addition, Jerome also asked those savage leaders to take the warriors of their tribes to assist the more than 1 troops who were struggling in front.

When the wildling leaders heard that they wanted to fight the legendary White Walkers, they were obviously not very willing. Some said that it was too dark and their soldiers could not see anything at night, and some said that Jerome needed to give them more time to rectify the army. .

Jerome has dealt with these savages for most of his life, and he knows them very well. From their appearance, he knows that it's not that they don't want to go, it's just that they don't see enough benefits.

Jerome was almost laughed at by these guys. What time is he still thinking about this petty gain? If he doesn't deal with those strange ghosts well, once the dwarf army is defeated, how can the wildlings escape?
But now he didn't bother to scold these short-sighted savages anymore, and said directly, "What do you want?"

"Food." Qingsui immediately said, "We need enough food for our tribe to survive this winter."

"Okay." Jerome readily agreed, "As long as you take people to stop those strange ghosts now, I will give you as much food as you want after this battle is over."

After receiving the promise from the dwarf general, the leaders of the savage tribes were satisfied and went back to pull the people. Before leaving, they borrowed forty wooden spears.

And Jerome didn't stay idle afterwards, and asked Aragorn to continue to lead people to gather the remnants and retreat here.

He is now holding the mentality of as many people as he can get back.

And as those savages went up, the pressure on the dwarves was finally reduced, and Aragorn and others also got more time to collect survivors on the battlefield and organize a retreat.

But the good times didn't last long. Before Jerome could breathe a sigh of relief, he noticed that the screams nearby seemed to be getting smaller.

At first, Jerome thought this was a good thing, which meant that the dwarves were gradually regaining the initiative, but he saw that the sixteen beams of light were still moving in this direction.

The dwarf general realized that the offensive of the aliens had not slowed down, and had even become more violent.

Jerome couldn't help but yelled again, "What are those savages doing?! Why didn't they block those ghosts?"

As his words fell, those strange beams of light suddenly disappeared.

But it reappeared after a while, and it was only two or three hundred steps away from them.

Jerome was really anxious now, and he also found that Aragorn and his people hadn't come back for a long time, and an ominous premonition rose in Jerome's heart again.

The only thing that made him feel gratified was that in such a short period of time, the person he had sent to cut down the fir trees had already made a hundred wooden spears.

The dwarves are indeed born craftsmen. Although most of the wooden spears are very rough and only have time to sharpen a point, the efficiency is amazing.

Just as Jerome handed out the hundred wooden spears to the hands of the front dwarf warriors, he saw those useless savages running back all the way.

Jerome sent someone to stop them, but those savages had gone crazy, they pulled out their weapons, and chopped down those who blocked them to the ground.

Not to mention that they still gained a little after going out for a while. They picked up a lot of weapons, most of which belonged to dwarf warriors.

While running, he shouted, "It's over, it's over, the mountain spirit is here!"
