Chapter 255: A Dangerous Opportunity (Monthly Pass 800 Plus Update)
The Reserve rushed into the camp screaming and calling the Night's Watch. There were no fools among the Rangers www.biquge.info Pen & Fun & Pavilion, and it was immediately clear that something was wrong. A group of horsemen turned on their horses and rushed into the night with the reserves. Jon glanced at Commander Mormont, who nodded, and he dragged a horse and rushed out.
Zhao Mai survived, thanks to the characteristics of the druid's transformation. In the transformed state, if you receive a fatal injury, you will immediately "return" to your original form. The reconstitution of the body structure can undo most of the injuries, and in the process, the surging force of nature can save the druid's life. The strange ghost turned the baby into an unstable carrier of ice power, and Zhao Mai was "blown back to its original form" and lay down in the snow on all fours. The injuries of the explosion were nothing, but a cold force was spreading in his chest.
He only felt that he was in the middle of the snow and ice, the temperature around him was constantly dropping, and his body was becoming more and more sluggish. Only by mobilizing the surrounding natural force can the chest feel warm, but the power of ice also comes from the natural force, and like cancer cells, it also receives the support of the Force. At present, it seems that as long as Zhao Mai is awake, the part that produces warmth is greater than the cold. But Zhao Mai is not a machine, he always has to sleep and rest, and at that time, the power of cold ice may have the upper hand.
His face was frighteningly pale, his skin was as clear as it was, and his veins were clearly visible. When Jon and the others found him, everyone was shocked. Zhao Mai raised his hand and waved weakly at them. Jon jumped off his horse and rolled on the ground before stopping. "How are you? What do you need to do right away?"
"Fire, I need to lean against the fire. The white mist exhaled by Zhao Mai was full of snowflakes, which looked beautiful, but it was worrying beautiful. He checked his status, and although it was a crisis, it could also be called an opportunity.
Aliens are a force that can multiply and reproduce, they pick the right people to cultivate, and use their ice cores to "infect" each other. Custer's sons have all been infected with the Alien Spirit, and the forces of nature allow them to grow even in a necromantic state. Now, the strange ghost has taken a fancy to Zhao Mai again and wants to make him one of his own.
What constantly generated the power of ice on Zhao Mai's chest was the rune core of the strange ghosts, the source of all their power, and the most secret part of them.
"I need fire," Zhao Mai said, "I want to balance the power of the cold." ”
The altar was originally made of ice, but now it has been blown into powder, so naturally it is impossible to see it. The surrounding trees fell in the radius, and a shallow pit was cut out of the ground. Everyone didn't understand what was going on here, but they also knew that now was not the time to ask. Jon was the best rider, and he galloped back with Zhao on his back, with the others on either side.
A blazing fire was lit, and Zhao Mai barely sat on the fire, his body staggered weakly, and he almost fell into the fire several times. "Samwell, Tully, come here, I hope you've learned some medicine while you've been with Master Emon, and at least know how to take care of the sick," Old Bear's loud voice cut through the silent night, until a chubby figure came over. He was about to reprimand Sam for his sluggish movements, only to see him holding a thickened bearskin cloak with a crossed silver hammer on the hook. It was originally Sir Jeremy's mantle, who had died in the Castle Black ghoul attack, but the Night's Watch didn't waste anything.
"Well, it seems that your brain is quite flexible. From now on, you are in charge of taking care of him, and report anything to me!" Mormont ordered. He turned his head to look at the others and was furious: "Damn, are you all okay to do? I don't care why no one noticed Mike when he went out, I just worried that there would be an enemy touching him, but you don't know like you're blind! Do you think it's the Night's Watch brother who will fall next?"
The Night's Watch is an army that has been trained into an army, despite the fact that its members are mostly bandits, crooks, and thieves. The little leisure gained from reaching the castle vanished, the gears of steel in motion, and the blades of the sword flashed.
Sam sat down next to Zhao Mai and put his arms around him to keep him from staggering. He felt a chill creep up his arm, as if it had been immersed in a river of ice.
"Don't use your hands, it's better to hold me in place with a wooden rack, you can't stand the cold. Zhao Mai trembled and stretched out his hands towards the fire. In the astonished eyes of everyone, his hand reached into the fire without any damage, but the fire was gradually extinguished.
"I need a bigger fire, Sam you're going to help me prepare some materials, I'm going to dispense myself with medicine. Zhao Mai raised his head, his face was covered with a layer of frost, and as soon as he spoke, he fluttered and fell: "Old Xiong, I was cursed by the ice, but I will survive." ”
"We'll try to save you!" but tell me what you're going to do, do you understand?" Zhao Mai nodded, he would only tell Xiong Lao alone, so as not to make the night watchman's brother cowardly when he heard too much. After all, this is a mythical ghost, not an enemy that ordinary people originally envisioned.
"I need help," Sam said to Elder Bear, "I need to help him with the potion, and I can't hold him here all the time." ”
"I'm here to help, and we're all going to help. Jon said, "Commander, I'm not a Ranger and have no combat mission. I'm your officer, so I'm asking you to take a moment off work to take care of this sick number. ”
"Okay, I don't need you just yet. Elder Xiong nodded. He knew that if it weren't for Mike's persuasion, he might have lost the affairs officer around him.
"Hmph, hurry up and get him out of here! he has offended the God of Ice, and he will surely die, but don't die with me!" Custer's voice sounded from the side, and the strong fellow said viciously with an axe in his hand.
"We're just going to take care of him here for a while!" Jon said.
"Don't you know, he's dead. No one can survive under the ice! You black crows invite death! Damn it, you get out of my house quickly! I don't dare to receive you anymore, you men in black can't bring anything good!"
"This is your home and we respect that. Elder Xiong straightened up and said, "But you also promised the guests that we would spend the night here, and we formed a sacred ancient contract. We will go when the sun rises, but before that time you drive us away, you will break the ancient contract between the master and the guest, and you will be cursed!"
"I'm not going to take trouble here......! Hey, that guy isn't a night watchman, he doesn't have a black cloak. Custer snorted twice, "I only promised to receive the night watchman, not this outsider!"
"You don't know if it's the night watchman, I'm the commander of the night watch!" Old Xiong's voice showed a resolute tone: "He was attacked near your fortress to protect your home, but you want to drive us away, which is really against tradition and rules." ”
"He's not here to ......"
"Then do you know what he is for?" Old Xiong immediately asked, "Come, tell us how much you know?"
Custer distinctly heard the sound of the sword and the scabbard rubbing against each other. He gritted his teeth, knowing that he couldn't tell the story of sacrificing a child to a strange ghost, so he could only endure this breath and said viciously: "It's until sunrise! Anyway, he won't be able to hold out for that long! You are working in vain, and you don't know the hearts of good people!"
"Custer!" Zhao Mai raised his head and smiled at him, "Do you know what will happen if I die?" Zhao Mai was determined to scare him, so he used the disguise ability of the camouflage ring to suddenly turn his eyes bright blue, and then change back again.
The owner of the fortress jerked backwards, nearly tripping himself up the steps. He didn't dare to say anything more, he didn't even pick up the fallen axe, he even crawled back into the house, and slammed the door shut. (To be continued.) )
