In Winterfell, with the evacuation of the people, there are less than 6,000 of the more than 20,000 permanent residents.

The women and children were basically evacuated, and most of the men chose to abandon their homeland at this life-and-death juncture, and only more than 800 people remained.

With the five thousand guards of Winterfell, there were less than six thousand.

Catherine, the lord's wife, originally insisted on staying, but under the persuasion of Lord Ed and the Bachelor, she left with Bran, Rickon's two sons, Sansa and Arya's two daughters, and went to King's Landing.

Eddard's eldest son, Robb, and illegitimate son, Jon, stayed, and the two had just passed their coming-of-age ceremony at the age of fifteen. Originally, Ed did not agree to the two staying, but the two challenged the two guards beside Ed one after another, and won the victory, proving their strength.

Coupled with the support of the lord's wife, Ed, as a lord, also had to agree.

On the fifth day of the evacuation, shortly after nightfall, the sentry above the tower rang the bell of warning.

Gooding rolled over and sat up, and for the past few days, he had been living in the blacksmith shop and not going out.

The food was prepared by the blacksmith before leaving, and he was prepared for half a month's serving. And told him that if he really survived, and there was not enough food, he would go to the lord.

After becoming a magician, Guding's need for food has decreased a lot, because the role of food itself is to provide energy to the body, and Guding's body has been able to absorb elemental energy. The half-month's worth of food left by the blacksmith can last for at least two months.

In the past five days, Gooding has not been idle, and he has developed several new spells, including defense and evasion, and has been practicing for the past few days. Almost every day, his strength is improving.

This kind of refinement of strength also gives Guding a good feeling, at least it gives him a certain confidence in his safety.

The sentinel's warning bell made Gooding appear on the street, and then blessed his feet with the wind magic and anti-gravity magic that he had developed in the past few days, and jumped onto the roof.

This new magic can even allow him to glide in the air for a short time, but in the gliding state, the mental power consumption is extremely high.

After jumping onto the roof, the view was still not enough, and Guding took a few leaps and climbed towards a tall tower not far away.

It was the Bachelor's Tower, but it was empty.

On the night after the people of the city left, Gooding had just developed this new magic when he snuck in, and all the books were gone. I don't know if it was destroyed or taken away. But Gooding clearly remembered that the dozen or so scholars left empty-handed, and they did not see the soldiers carrying books and other items from the scholars' tower.

According to Gooding's speculation, the books were either completely destroyed or taken away by spatial means. But Gooding prefers the latter, because if it is destroyed, it is impossible not to leave even the slightest trace.

Climbing to the top of the tower, Gudin looked out of the city gates.

He finally saw the appearance of the so-called strangers.

Those strange spirits look a little like humans. It's just that they're tall, and each one is more than two meters tall. Their bodies are withered, their skin seems to have been air-dried, and even the muscle texture of their bodies can be faintly seen. The most special thing is that their eyes are all deep ice blue, like a blue fire.

There were more than a dozen strange ghosts, and behind them were ghouls with pale skin and stiff movements.

The number of those ghouls is probably not 100,000, but 70,000 or 80,000.

With just one glance, Gooding was sure that the city could not be defended.

Even if there were no ghosts, the number of ghouls would have outnumbered the number of defenders. In addition, the ghoul itself is infinitely powerful, three to five times more powerful than ordinary manpower, and it cannot be killed by ordinary methods, so it can only be burned to death with fire.

In addition, there are more than a dozen strange ghosts who don't know the depths at all.,With wisdom no less than that of humans.,And even more terrifying power that no one knows.。

There is no suspense at all in this battle.

Just as Gooding frowned slightly, Jon, who was beside the lord, saw him at the top of the Bachelor's Tower.

Jon stood on the right back of the lord, and when he looked to the right front, he caught a glimpse of the Bachelor's Tower, noticed that there was someone on it, and immediately turned his head to look.

Seeing that he had discovered him, Gooding did not panic, but just waved his hand at him, and then made a silent motion.

Jon frowned slightly, but seeing that the other party was just a child, and remembering that his younger brother Bran also liked to climb the tower ladder, he immediately turned his head back and didn't say anything.

It's just that he has some doubts in his mind, "Whose child is this, aren't all children under the age of sixteen evacuated?" ”

The question lingered in his mind for only a moment before being tossed aside, as his attention was already on the army of strangers.

It was the first time he saw such an inhuman army, and with an aura of slaughter, his heart beat sharply.

Lord Ed's attention at this moment was also completely focused on the army of strangers outside the city, his eyebrows were full of sorrow, he knew very well with many years of experience in battle, this battle, the city would be ruined, there was no second possibility.

"Catapult!"

Ed watched the army get closer and closer, turned around and gave the first command. "Ignition! Attack! ”

The heavy stones of the catapults have long since been replaced with bales of flammable materials doused with fire oil, which can ignite with a little spark.

After receiving the order, the projectiles of the twelve catapults were all set on fire and hurled out of the city.

Packets of flammable material slammed into the ground and sputtered in all directions, quickly contaminating the ghouls.

Many of the ghouls turned into burning men and fell to the ground and turned into ashes.

However, this did not stop the army of draugrs who were not afraid of death, and these ghouls seemed to have no idea what fear was, let alone pain. Many ghouls who were not completely burned ignored the already burned parts of their bodies, let alone extinguished the flames, but did not pause in the slightest and ran in the direction of the city gate.

"The so-called ghouls are indeed undead puppets with no sense of self. As a result, they do not feel pain, fear, or other emotions that a living person should have...... Fortunately, these things have almost zero resistance to fire, so they are not difficult to deal with. Guding stared intently at the situation on the battlefield and made various judgments.

"But the few aliens who led the army, according to the books, have wisdom no less than that of humans, and it seems to be true now. They were also watching the lords and others on the city walls...... "Gooding's gaze fell on several strangers.

Suddenly, a strange ghost seemed to notice Gooding's gaze and looked in his direction.

was discovered by the other party, and Gooding was not much surprised. Because he has seen too many strong people, before he has stepped into reincarnation, let alone strange ghosts, even if it is this continent, he can crush tens of thousands with one finger.

Gooding looked at him without the slightest fear.

The gaze of the strange ghost quickly attracted the attention of Ed and the others, and they followed his line of sight and also saw Guding at the top of the tower.

"Kids? Whose child is this?! Ed frowned slightly, and said to Jon on the side, "Take him to a safe place and hide, whether he can survive depends on his luck." ”

[I'm sorry, but there was a setting bug about the strange ghost before.] In Game of Thrones, the Wraith is not afraid of fire, only dragon crystals, obsidian and dragon breath. I remember wrongly, it was the ghouls who could be burned by fire, and the strangers who could not be burned to death. (To be continued.) )
