Chapter 13: Survival
Even in the midst of such a storm, Thor was uncontrollably distracted thinking about what was happening in front of him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
He thought of the scene when he had fought, and after his anger burned, his body seemed to be filled with endless energy, how similar it was then to now.
"It seems that I don't know enough about myself. Thor had made a mental note of this, ready to find time to look into it, but in any case, it was not the time.
I don't know if it's an illusion, Sol always felt that the wind and rain seemed to be weakening at this time, as if after a hearty battle, it had entered a truce of moderation.
The rain was still cold and wouldn't hit people like arrows, and the wind was howling and getting weaker, and Thor realized that his chance to survive had come.
"Noam!" had just jumped out of the cart, and the cold made Thor numb on his feet, and he almost fell to his knees, but he heard a familiar shout from behind him.
"Blacktooth, Kratos?" two tall figures burst out of the rain, followed by two more, and the four warriors who had been sent out to find their way had all returned.
"Did you find the cave?" Thor asked anxiously, oblivious to the red-eyed and bulging form of the black-toothed eyes.
"Found it, Noam, I'll take you now—" Blacktooth shook his head, slightly smug, and even blinked his eyes a few times deliberately.
"Well done!"
Thor didn't bother to observe too much, he hurriedly turned around, and shouted for the warriors to pull up the rope that dragged the cart, while he grabbed the middle one and jerked it up.
The temporary pause of the storm does not mean that the storm is over, and if he does not hurry forward now, Thor does not know how to withstand the next shock.
The whole tribe is like a weed that can be seen everywhere in the forest, after being bent by the wind and rain, it quickly bounces up with its tenacity, and this time the tribesmen move in an orderly manner, without saying Soldo.
Diana commanded some of the women and children who could not withstand the violent storm to be lifted to the car, and the rest of the people supported each other and staggered forward.
Kratos looked at these barbarians with some confusion, and he felt some indescribable emotions in his heart, and he could vaguely feel that during his absence, this group of people seemed to have experienced something and what had changed.
If this tribe seemed no different from other wildling tribes before, now, Kratos believes that something must have changed here.
Looking at the two barbarian women holding the baby in their arms, at the same time with one arm wrapped around each other, supporting each other tightly, their eyes were completely blank and frightened by the storm, and there was only a firm belief in their eyes, as if they believed that their Nome could lead them out of any predicament.
Kratos understood, and the seeds of unity and trust had quietly taken root in this horde of savages.
He rushed forward and dragged the front edge of the wooden cart, and with the force of his arms, the speed of the cart suddenly increased by a section, but he understood that it was not his own strength that made this car move quickly, Thor beside him, the black tooth who pointed the way ahead, and the power of countless barbarian warriors passed through a wooden cart to everyone's body.
Even Kratos could feel the flow of power that was transmitted like a vessel, and he knew that it was the power of the entire tribe that was pushing this cart forward, and this force was also protecting the tribe in the terrible wind and rain.
The wind weakened, the torrential rain gradually subsided, Thor's palm broke, and the palm that had been soaked by the rain for a long time made the skin soft and thin, and under the strong friction of the hemp rope, it didn't take long for blood to flow out.
But he didn't care about any of that, all he thought was "Hurry, hurry—" The scenery around him was very different from before, and Thor believed that it would not be long before everyone reached their destination.
"One-two, one-two, one-two......" After a long time in this storm, Thor felt extremely tired, and at the same time a cold chill appeared from the soles of his feet, so every time he took two steps forward, his mouth shouted one or two, which made his steps more rhythmic and more powerful.
Pompeii was to Thor's right, and he couldn't help but shout along when he heard the numbers from Noam's mouth just in the rhythm of his own advance.
Kratos heard it too, and he shouted too, and Diana stood on the cart and waved her arms and shouted in the same way.
Blacktooth walked in the front, and he turned back to lead the way, as if beating a beat, and turned back to join the crowd's trumpet.
The whole team seemed to completely ignore the wind and rain that was still blowing, and it was filled with a different atmosphere.
"One-two...... One, two...... "Old Morey was lying weakly in the center of the cart, and his waist was in pain. He thought that he was probably pressed on some bottle and can, but this did not prevent him from raising the corners of his mouth and shouting the trumpet.
Ba trudged hard by the cart, he refused Morey's request, insisting on following the car, he felt that he still had strength in his body, and there was only so much space in the cart after all.
At this time, he also shouted "one-two, one-two" in a childish voice, and heard more and more people join in, and the initial very small trumpet sound gradually condensed into a line and twisted into a rope, and the simple slogan also contained infinite power.
Ba was too young to help the soldiers, so he simply ran to the side of the car and shouted at the side of the car.
In the midst of the roars of countless people, Mr. Ba felt that he could keenly distinguish a unique vocal line, and he was sure that it was the voice of the young barbarian leader, not too loud, but warm and thick.
It was no different from any savage he had ever seen, though he had never thought of it at first, but the rain had made him change his mind, or perhaps it was the moment he picked himself up in the storm.
Thinking of this, Ba couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, as a nameless person who had lost his hometown and homeland, at this moment, he had a feeling of finding home again.
"Home...... Maybe here...... can really ......" Ba, who was immersed in his emotions, was suddenly startled by a burst of cheers, and the crowd suddenly boiled like boiling water.
"We're here!" "Look ahead!" The noise arose, Ba looked up, and saw a tall cave appear in front of him, the entrance of the cave was pitch black, deep, as if there was no end, and you could imagine from a distance that this must be an incomparably huge cave.
Thor was as excited as the others, he could barely resist letting go of the rope and just lay down on the ground for a good night's sleep, there's nothing better than a haven in a storm, especially if you're still leading a group of people.
"Everyone, work hard—this is where we are headed!" Thor shouted back, and was greeted with excited cheers from his people
"Okay!"
