Chapter 300: The Lord of Bai Man
However, it seemed that the giant's condition was no longer good, and Halfina might not be able to see what was going on, but Erri had seen that the giant's feet had been cut to pulp, and that the clubs he was wielding were completely undisciplined.
It was only a matter of time before the giant was killed.
However, Halfina can clearly say that she has never touched weapons before, especially bows and arrows, but as soon as she gets her hands on them, she seems to know how to use them immediately.
However, the slightly trembling hand and the lack of strength limited how her strength could be used.
The first arrow, the attack, went straight to the giant's left eye, but it missed a little and pierced it directly into its face.
“……”
Rather than caring what her arrows were, Halfina ran forward as she swerved, shifting from position to attack, and soon she was next to a low stone wall and fired a second arrow at the giant.
Poof!
This time, as she wished, pierced its eye, but it was the right eye.
The giant's movements were obviously stunned by this, and then, its movements became more brutal and violent, but a discerning person could see at a glance that this was the end of the crossbow, as long as it was allowed to vent, then the battle was over.
The third arrow was aimed at the giant's throat, but the big guy's amplitude was too big, so the arrow only poked into the arm.
"Damn it!"
The fourth arrow was drawn from behind, and this time it was carefully aimed at the center of the opponent's eyebrows, but it was still the target that should have been deviated.
"No more shooting, that big guy is no longer good."
And when she consciously put her hand behind her back, her bow and arrow were pressed down by a man.
"Who are you?"
A hard and cold steel armor protects this man's body tightly, and the axe blade and bracer are full of giant blood.
"Farkas, comrades-in-arms, these arrows are well supported."
"The ability is good, I can be a competent comrade-in-arms alone."
The other woman put away her sword and shield and wiped the blood and stains from her face, but it only made her face more uncomfortable.
"Comrade-in-arms?"
"From out of town?
We are an organization of warriors, all brothers and sisters fighting for honor. ”
While the few people over there were discussing what a group of comrades was, Ellie sat still, smearing the blood from her hands on the wolfskin's body.
"Xiaobai, what do you think of her?"
"She has a lot of talent for warriors, bows and arrows, swords and two-handed weapons, she uses them very consistently, although it is only a rustiness in terms of skill, but once trained, she has an advantage over most warriors."
“…… Just a farmer? ”
"Sometimes talent can't be compared with simple hard work, what she lacks is just an environment for her to grow."
Tossing aside the two dislocated wolves, Ellie stood up and walked over there.
"I'll think about it, thank you.
But I think I have important things to report to my lord right now......"
"Sister......
Ellie, who ran over, stuck to Halfina's side.
“… There is also a child to take care of. ”
"Well, Bai Mancheng will enter from that side."
The woman pointed to the path above the hills, which was the road that led to Baiman.
However, the gatekeeper didn't think so, and through the high and low fortresses composed of low walls, the two of them came to the real gate of Snow Man City.
"Stop! Due to the recent presence of dragons, the gates have been closed, allowing only those who are dealing with official matters to enter and exit. ”
"Helgen was destroyed by the dragons, and we were among the few who escaped.
And the news of the dragon's attack, the lord must know, Ximu Town is also unprotected! ”
However, Halfina didn't have time to talk to him more, and she directly explained to the other party the purpose of her arrival. After hearing this, the other party looked at the two of them again, and he didn't plan to dwell on them for too long, so he said quickly.
"Very well, go inside, but our men will keep an eye on you."
"Let's go, Ellie."
"Hmmm......"
The guards opened the gates, and the city inside was indeed much cleaner and tidy than Creek Town, and all the houses were kept out of golden tiles instead of simple thatch, and the sturdy and neat stone roads finally showed a little trace of civilization.
But in fact, seriously speaking, the number of people in this city must not exceed a hundred, so it is obvious that at least the people who can live here are people who have some means or ways.
"Hello, where is the lord's palace going?"
"New here? Walking up the avenue, there is a dragon skull, and the largest building is. ”
A man in Imperial armor looked at Halfina and, after a brief explanation, went about his work.
"Money is not an issue, but the soldiers of the Empire need more swords."
"I can't handle such a big order alone, can't you put aside your pride for a moment and go to Erlund Graymane for help?"
"Hah! Then I'd rather kneel down to Ufric Stormcloak and beg! ”
He argues with a woman, but Erri doesn't intend to listen too much and follows Harpfina to the lord's palace.
"Dragon's Castle."
Looking at the words on the sign, Ellie read it, then looked at the fortress.
The lord's city was built on a hill, coupled with high walls to protect the safety of the city, and the lord's own palace was built on the highest part of this hill.
The palace seemed to stand on top of a spring, and a small waterfall flowed down the stairs into the cistern below the castle from between the stones.
The building itself is very tall, with a towering spire and a large and church-like design, plus the terrain in which it is located. Longlin Fort is indeed the place where the Dragon Club will choose to land at first sight.
However, it was not for the sake of feeling the scenery now, Halfina put away her desire to take a good look, and then retreated from the gate and entered the lord's palace.
The inside is also very spacious, but there is no one at the door, it seems that they are busy with something.
And ascending the stairs in front of them, they entered the lord's hall, facing their lordship's position, and there was a rather long fire pit in the middle, and it was burning, and the cold wind and dry cold outside disappeared when they arrived inside.
Four long tables faced the delicate fire pit, on which were placed rather precious utensils and cutlery, as well as some simple desserts, but not when they were eaten, so there were no big dishes.
Seeing that Erlie and Halfina had walked up to the main hall, a dark-skinned woman walked up to them and asked warily.
"What are you doing here? Lord Barguf was not present. ”
"This kid and I escaped from Helgen, and we brought news of the dragon attack."
"That woman can do magic."
Xiao Bai just saw that when the woman pulled out her weapon, the other free hand carried some kind of strange arc.
"I know... But the strength is very weak. ”
After evaluating her own strength, Ellie thought that her lightning magic skills were much better than that of this female guard.
Hearing this, the woman put her weapon back, but her eyes were still wary of them, and then she said.
"It turns out that this is the reason why the guards let you in, then come on, the lord must want to meet you in person."
“…… If we move our troops like this, it is easy for the surrounding cities to think that we are joining Oufrik! ”
"But I can't let my people be swallowed up by the attack!
Dragons or not, the next attack is my territory, and I'm not going to let the army stay still! ”
One who appeared to be a steward was anxiously persuading the lord on the throne, who dismissed his opinion and then gave his own opinion.
After seeing Erlie, it was a little strange, but after listening to the words of his guard, he said.
"I am Barguf, lord of Snowman.
Why, have you been to Helgen? Have you seen the dragon with your own eyes? ”
