Volume 1: Soaring to the Sky Chapter 36 Ghouls in the Flames

After the military discussion, Jon left without saying a word to Daenerys, and Daenerys was very sad.

It's a sleepless night for the people of Westeros, everyone is here for the last night, and no one knows if they'll survive tomorrow.

Jaime and Tyrion sit in front of the fireplace and drink, Brienne joins with Davos and Tormund, and finally Jaime canonizes Brienne as a knight as a knight.

Hound and Berry drink liquor in the bitterly cold city.

Gendry approached Arya and sent her custom-made spear, Arya was satisfied and gave the first one to Gendry, Gendry wanted to be responsible, and Arya refused to lose her freedom.

Sam gave the family heirloom sword to Jorah Mormont, hoping that he would wield it with glory.

In the Stark family's crypt, Jon stands in front of his mother's grave, and Daenerys comes looking for her.

Jon says he's the only rightful heir to the Iron Throne, and Daenerys doesn't want to believe it.

At this time, three trumpets sounded outside the city, and the army of ghouls was about to march under the city.

Lyanna woke up and begged Li Yi to join the war, becoming the garrison of the North Gate, and she commanded 100 legions of infantry to be deployed behind the city gate.

Jorah convinces Lyanna to take refuge, but she ignores Jorah and tells Jorah that what he is doing is not worthy of the surname Mormont.

Bran travels to the Sacred Wood Forest under the protection of the Iron Folk to lure the Night King into taking the bait.

On the walls, Antiope and the Grey Worm led the Legionnaires and the Unsullied in a rapid formation.

High up on the roof behind the walls, Davos carried a few quivers and placed them at the archers' feet.

At the city gate, Li Yi, Queen Galadriel, Sansa, and Arya stood in the cold wind and stared ahead.

Sansa was a little nervous, 120 Chaos Dragons swept over the city and flew north, and three hundred war eagles collectively took off and roared, flying higher and higher around the city, Sansa was a little more at ease.

Brienne and Jaime, Clegane, Addison, and the Lords of the North, along with warriors, freedmen, and the Night's Watch, began to line up in the city.

At Daenerys' behest, Jorah commanded the Dothraki cavalry to move slowly around the city, ready to support everywhere.

Sam, who was at a loss, held the dragon crystal dagger in his hand, and it took a while to find an array in the city to join it.

Although the little demon Tyrion is wearing armor, he is ordered by Daenerys to follow the old and weak women and children into the catacombs to take refuge.

Outside the city gate, in front of the five fingers, there seemed to be the sound of horses' hooves stepping on the snow, Li Yi threw out the reconnaissance spell and ordered the city gate to open.

After a while Melisandre rode leisurely into the city, and Davos stood on the roof of the house and looked at her resentfully.

Melisandre didn't care about Davos's resentful gaze, and there was no wave in her heart, anyway, she would be relieved tomorrow.

Daenerys rode the black dragon Drogon, and Jon rode the green dragon Rhaegar and landed on the towers of the walls of the Sacred Wood Forest, waiting quietly.

Thrandil's Northern Jungle Dragoons and Hippolyta's Paradise Island Dragoons also found a few towers in the city.

In the far north, 120 dragoons led by King Elon and Kellepeng have engaged the army of ghouls.

Bright lines of fire erupted from the Chaos Dragon's mouth, creating a sea of fire, and large swaths of ghouls were burned to ashes by Chaos Breath.

From time to time, there were ice throwing spears to sneak attack the dragoons, but they were all rolled and dodged by the dragon that was preoccupied with defense, and the army of ghouls was temporarily blocked by the dragoons.

Suddenly, an ice storm appeared, and the distant firelight was quickly obscured by the approaching storm, becoming hazy until it was invisible.

Winds and hail are rolling towards Winterfell.

With an ice storm obscuring the view and the battle in the north unknown, Arya shoves the dragon crystal dagger into Sansa's hand and tells her to take refuge in the catacombs.

Tyrion, Varys, and Missandei, who were in the catacombs, saw Sansa come in with a solemn face, and guessed that things were not going well outside.

Sansa saw the dracons slaughtering the ghouls and reassured the crowd about the battle, which Arya told her to hide from because she was afraid that she would be injured by a stray arrow, but the ice storm still made her a little flustered.

Winterfell was surrounded by an ice storm, and the torches seemed to be extinguished.

By the light of the fire, you can also see the situation of several nearby figures, and the outside of the city is no longer visible, and Winterfell seems to be an island in the dark.

In the north, the dragon roared from time to time, and the sound of the wind covering the whirring was still faintly audible.

The people in the city were a little relieved, the dragoons did not retreat, and it was impossible for the ghoul army to come to the city.

The eagle roar over Winterfell grew denser, and Thranduil led the Northern Jungle Dragoons to quickly rise into the air amid the eagle roar, and swooped down on the most dense whistling spots.

As the eagle's roar became more intense, from time to time a single hawk cavalry flew back to Winterfell through the darkness of the ice storm.

The Eagle Cavalry drove the Eagle back to rest and stand by according to the pre-battle orders, their magic was depleted and they could no longer heal the Eagle Eagle's injuries.

While the city was worried about the retreat of the Eagle Cavalry, there was a loud bang over Winterfell, and the ice storm was quickly dispersed, and the battle situation in the sky above Winterfell was clearly visible.

Gandalf seemed to hold the scorching sun, and the feather fan in his hand emitted a dazzling white light, dispelling the ice storm and illuminating the entire Winterfell.

He chanted a spell as fireballs continued to pour out around him, drawing streams of light in pursuit of the ice dragon Viserys, who was entangled in the dragoons.

The Night King rode the Ice Dragon Viserys tumbling and dodging the fireballs, and ice spears flew out of his hands and shot at the pursuing Gandalf and the melee Northern Jungle Dragoons.

From time to time, the Eagle Cavalry was hit and fell, some fell for a distance and then regained their wings to pursue the Ice Dragon, and some flew back to Winterfell to rest and standby.

Seeing that the battle situation was becoming more and more unfavorable to him, the Night King drove the ice dragon to take a hard blow and Chaos Breath, and swooped down and accelerated to fly north from a low altitude.

With the help of the ice spears of the ghost cavalry on the ground, he shook off Thrandil's entanglement and ran back to the rear of the ghoul army.

Gandalf did not give the order to pursue, and continued to lead the Warhawk Cavalry to hover over Winterfell, and the Warhawk squadron took turns to descend to rest and eat under Gandalf's arrangement.

After the Northern Jungle Dragoons finished resting with the Eagle Cavalry, they flew back to Winterfell to eat and rest.

Li Yi looked at the battle situation and thought for himself, the low altitude was not suitable for the War Eagle Cavalry and the Night King to fight, they did not recover from the height of their injuries after being fell, and they could easily fall to their deaths.

The dragon crystal arrows that were shot at the Night King were all dodged by him by rolling over the dragon or blocking with an ice spear, and it seemed that he still had to deal with the Night King in close combat.

The Night King is preparing to compete with Winterfell to see if the army of ghouls dies first, or the Chaos Dragons die first.

The Night King's defeat caused the Westeros of Winterfell to cheer loudly and warn.

The ice storm over Winterfell had lessened considerably, and the figure of the northern dragoons blocking the enemy in the sky loomed in the light of the sea of fire on the ground.

After a while, the northern enemy Chaos Dragon's mana was empty, and he was no longer able to use Chaos Breath, so he flew back to the rear of Winterfell to land to eat and rest.

King Ailong sent someone to report to Li Yi that the Chaos Dragon's mana could not be restored until noon.

The army of ghouls withstood the attack of the dragoons, and Winterfell drove out the Night King, and the first round was tied!

The hazy fires in the north disappeared one after another, the ice storm still showed no signs of strengthening, and the Night King hid behind, without the urge to rush forward.

Calculating the time, the elemental flame has not yet reached the time to extinguish, Li Yi guessed that it was the Night King who cast a spell to neutralize the elemental flame with the ice element, extinguishing the sea of fire blocking the army of ghouls.

After more than ten minutes, the muffled sound of the ghoul army advancing was clearly audible, and there was tension in Winterfell, and the generals of the city's defense were shouting to boost the morale of the soldiers.

On the city walls, the Grey Worm turned to look at Antiope beside him, the legionnaires and the Unsullied standing silently, waiting for orders.

The army of ghouls quickly rushed under the city walls, and Li Yi looked at most of the dry ghouls and skeleton ghouls, not knowing how long they had been awakened by the strange ghosts after sleeping underground.

He thought about the number of deaths in the millennia north of Winterfell and guessed the number of ghouls, and his scalp tingled.

Antiope raised her hand to stop the archers of the northern realms high in the city, until the ghouls under the walls had begun to climb on top of each other, and she threw a wall of fire spell and shouted orders below.

"Five walls of fire under the city!"

As Antiope's first 10-meter-long and 1-meter-wide wall of fire ignited, a small number of soldiers on the city wall began to follow and cast spells, and soon one after another wall of fire spells ignited in order, forming a huge 5-meter-wide wall of fire in the north of Winterfell.
