Chapter 624: The Disaster of the Arctic Ice Field

A few days later, Levi returned to Westum.

By the time he arrived in the city, the upper districts had not even been shoveled away from the snow and ice on the road.

After being forced to return to St. Bourne, he left only a message, and immediately rode Olices towards Westdum.

Although he knew that by the time he arrived in Westdum, everything would be over, but he couldn't help his impatience and rushed back as soon as possible.

The Frostwings' assault on Westdum has added a new wound to the city's already post-war reconstruction.

Especially in the final stage, the heavy snow released by the Frost Wings, although it only lasted for three or two minutes, the destructive power it brought was too amazing.

According to post-war statistics, in these few minutes, the total number of civilians and soldiers who froze to death exceeded 200,000.

200,000 people died in a few minutes...... What a horrible number.

In just three or two minutes, Westdum's thriving road to rebuilding was gnawed by the king of the white dragon.

However, this is only the beginning, the White Dragon King's vengeance is eager, single-handedly killed Westdum, and after being repulsed, his revenge has another round.

When he left, he said, 'I'll be back,' and it wasn't just a harsh remark.

On September 13, less than a week after Levi returned to Wei City, an urgent message came from the north: the White Dragon's revenge had come.

The emergency report mentioned that from the extreme northern ice field, all kinds of dragonmen, dragon beasts, and a larger number of ice elemental and ice subspecies creatures formed a huge army and headed south.

The Arctic Ice Sheet was originally a barren land. The north itself is already very cold, the winter is long and cold, the temperature can drop below minus 30 degrees, and the summer is slightly more comfortable, but except for some places in the south, the total length of summer is only two or three months, and the temperature rarely exceeds 20 degrees.

As for spring and autumn? Then there is really only one concept of time, and spring and autumn in the north are not much different from winter.

It was not a suitable place for human life, and the Far North Ice Sheet was even more terrifying.

Anyway, most places in the north still have three or two months of comfortable summer, and the Far North Wilderness is covered with ice and snow all year round, and the temperature is below minus 20 degrees Celsius at its highest, or even below minus 50 degrees Celsius at most times, or even lower.

And the most terrifying part of the Arctic Ice Sheet, in addition to the low temperatures, is the frequent hanging blizzards. The wind whistled with frost and snow in the sky, and the extremely low temperature would take away all life.

This is not at all a place where normal humans can live for a long time. On the Far North Ice Sheet, in addition to some ice elements, even the ice subspecies of some organisms may not be able to withstand low temperatures and blizzards.

Occasionally, there will be some witchers and adventurers who will venture to the Far North Ice Field, but their worst enemy will never be dangerous ice monsters, but a blizzard. As soon as the blizzard blows, even if you have a high chain level, it is very likely that you will be buried by the heavy snow and freeze to death in the snowstorm.

In the north, the further north you go, the more sparsely populated you become, until you reach the Far North Ice Sheet.

According to the previous intelligence analysis within the Demon Hunter Guild, after the Frost Wings were liberated, they disappeared and should have been hidden in the Arctic Ice Field.

The King of the White Dragon, the Frost Wings, is the Lord of Ice. Of course, he could not be afraid of the harsh environment of the Far North Ice Field, on the contrary, he would be more at home there, which was his home turf, and it was a very good place for the white dragon to recuperate from the centuries-old seal at that time.

Back then, whether it was the Demon Hunters, the Holy Cult, or even the Kingdom Government, they all felt terrified when Frost Wings escaped from the seal. The powerful power of this white dragon deserves the attention of anyone and any force. Especially this white dragon, he has a great enmity with humans, and his Northland Dragon Kingdom was also a hegemon back then, but as a result, the 'Hero King' Salah was destroyed, and he was also suppressed on the Frost Peak and sealed for hundreds of years.

After he escaped from the seal, he was likely to take revenge, which made the human world very nervous.

However, the white dragon has disappeared since he escaped from the seal back then, and there has been no news coming out, which has also made many people relax their vigilance.

Unexpectedly, this white dragon actually launched his offensive at such a time.

said that he could endure it, and he did. After getting rid of the seal, this was rested for several years, and after basically regaining all its strength, it regained its strength and came out to take revenge.

But after enduring it for so long, I don't know why he actually risked to break into Westdum alone.

However, he dared to act in this way, and it must have been because Samir was dead and Levi was not in Westdum. He believes that there should be no one in Westdum who can threaten him.

As a result, he didn't expect Levi to use his fiancée's ring to temporarily return and catch him off guard; I didn't expect that the two Guardian cannons in Westdum were so powerful.

However, being repulsed does not mean the end, and these thoughts that he has been dormant in the Far North Ice Fields have not only regained his own strength, but also regained his own power.

Now, he is leading the army southward, and he is fighting well, which is to re-establish his 'Northern Dragon Kingdom'

And for humans, fighting is the only option.

……

"The family and the country are unfortunate." Yasha could only sigh like this, she had been in a very low mood lately.

The invasion of the White Dragon King interrupted the reconstruction of Westdum, resulting in the death of more than 300,000 people.

These people who died were her people.

And what made him feel very emotional was that after she regained control of the kingdom, the country not only did not settle down, but continued to suffer from external troubles.

First, there was an accident in the west, and the undead invaded; And now, not long after the war in the west ended, the north is filled with turmoil.

"I'll go." Levi caressed his fiancée's long hair.

"But our wedding ......"

"It can only be postponed."

Yasha's mood was even worse. After the two got engaged, not only did they have no chance to get along, but even the wedding was postponed again and again.

As a woman, of course she will have a grudge in her heart.

But she wasn't just a woman, she was the future leader of the country.

In her eyes, the interests of the country naturally had to be put before her personal happiness.

And now, the only person she can rely on is Levi.

However, although the commander has already decided, it is definitely not enough for an army to have a commander, and if Levi wants to go to the north, he naturally needs an army.

Where this army comes from is another big trouble.

Since Princess Yasha, with the support of Duke Jiang Yunliang, raised troops from the eastern border of the kingdom and defeated the Norsman government, the military strength of the entire human kingdom has been consumed a lot in the civil war.

As the garrison of the central army of the Kingdom of Westom, it was basically wiped out. The hundreds of thousands of troops recruited by the Norsmen at the end of the war were dead, fleeing, missing and missing, and about 200,000 people surrendered or were taken prisoner by the formation. These prisoners of war were actually very important laborers in the eight-month reconstruction process of the Kingdom of Westdum.

Yasha didn't mean to kill all these prisoners of war - this is a population of more than 200,000 young and middle-aged men, and it must be a joke to kill them all. What's more, many of these soldiers of the former Norsman government were forcibly conscripted into the army at the beginning, and it was not that they really wanted to oppose Princess Yasha.

But the easy release of these prisoners of war is not reliable.

After much consideration, these prisoners of war were organized into a 'garrison corps'. Although it is a 'legion', it is actually the work of the laborers of the reconstruction of Westdum. While maintaining the most basic subsistence needs of these prisoners of war, they were offered a very small salary and took on heavier labor.

At the same time, Yasha, as the leader of the country, also promised that after they completed two years of compulsory labor, they could choose to transfer to the regular army and enjoy the same treatment as the regular army. Of course, if you don't want to continue to be a soldier, you can also settle two years' salary at once, return to your hometown, and do whatever you want.

This plan has been endorsed by all parties. On the one hand, the problem of labor for the reconstruction of the kingdom was solved, and on the other hand, the problem of the disposal of such a large number of prisoners of war was solved.

In addition to this special 'garrison army', there is also a force called the 'Liberation Army' under the name of the royal government.

The Liberation Army is also known as the 'Eastern Army'. As the name suggests, this army is the army that Duke Jiang pulled up to help Yasha restore the country.

This is also the main military force of the Kingdom of Westdum now.

However, this army is now in the west. Otherwise, in the war to pacify the invasion of the undead kingdom in the west, where did the kingdom army of nearly 100,000 led by Wang Ande come from?

This army is currently being bombed in the west.

At the moment, the total number of human troops in Westdum is no more than 50,000. More than a third of them are recruits.

Of course, in order to deal with the threat from the north, the main forces in the west must be transferred back.

But even if most of the airships that Westdum can mobilize now are mobilized to transport troops back to the West, it will take at least half a month.

What should I do with this half a month?

The army of Frost Wings marching south from above the ice fields will not leave humanity with much more chance.

"Gather an army to the north as much as you can." Levi said, "I'll go first." Aren't there still some self-defense units in all the towns and cities in the north? And the power of the local witcher's guild. These can be used temporarily. ”

"But......" Yasha stopped talking.

What Li Wei said was right, but the total number of self-defense troops in those places probably did not exceed 20,000. Moreover, from the level of equipment to the level of training, it is a big problem.

But even so, what can be? Could it be that there is another way?

Relying on these people, if you want to block the fierce enemy, I am afraid that there is not much chance.

And the only one who can really rely on is the man in front of him.

"Levi ......"

Calling out the name, Yasha's tone was filled with both gratitude and a large part of guilt.

……

The situation in the north is eroding faster than expected.

The vast army of various ice-based creatures, in the process of heading south, almost did not miss any human gathering point.

And this kind of war between races is completely different from the original civil war. The victorious side will completely deprive the loser of everything.

Where the frost army passed, only a patch of ice and snow remained. Except for a small number of enslaved humans, the vast majority of people will become dead souls.

Levi wasted no time on his journey from Westdum, but by the time he reached the North, nearly half of the northern part of the North's territory had already fallen.

The only good news of all the bad news is that the further north you go, the smaller the population. The number of people in the occupied areas is just over 100,000.

And the southward movement of the frost army not only caused panic, but also caused the belief of human beings to resist bravely.

Anyway, as long as you fail, there is only one way to die, so why not fight bravely?

And after Levi arrived in the north, he didn't have time to gather troops or anything, he stepped directly on the battlefield.

In a place called 'Coldland', Levi saw the Frost army launch a storm on the town, which numbered about 20,000 people.

Seeing that Coldland's defense line was in jeopardy, Levi stepped on.

Combined with Olisses and a few minutes of mana guidance, Levi blasted down a 'Doomsday Wind Thunder', which directly smashed the vanguard of the Frost Army besieging the city.

The leader of this frost army is a white dragon - not Whitereven, of course, but an adult white dragon, whose strength has only just crossed over to the elemental level.

The white dragon challenged Levi with some self-indulgence, and as a result, there was no doubt that Levi's head was cut off.

To deal with this kind of monster whose strength level has just entered the element, even if it is a head dragon, Levi does not need to consume too much strength, and he doesn't even need to open Susa, so he directly slaughters that monster.

This white dragon, who couldn't let Levi know his name until he died, did not pose any threat to him except for dedicating him another wave of dragon materials.

The white dragon who led the army died, and the army composed of ice creatures was blasted enough by his 'Doomsday Wind and Thunder', and this frost army naturally retreated.

And then, Levi used the cold town close to the front line as a base, and began to gather and gather forces from all over the north.

The enemy army is large, and Levi is only one person, and he is too weak to take care of too much. Gathering most of the people together to strengthen the strength to fight against the enemy while also allowing Levi to better protect more people is the most reliable.
