The chief ranger calmly ordered everyone to lead the remaining horses closer to the tent, and led Iger and Yuren to set up traps and alarm mechanisms between the surrounding trees, and then arranged for the night guards, and then enlarged the group to move freely and began to solve the problem of dinner again.

......

"What I just said you would be like a philosopher for a while, and then a real warrior again. Drinking the little broth left at the bottom of the pot, Tyrion was terrified. He was protected by Egg at the first moment of the attack just now, and his feelings about the traverser were even more complicated at this moment: "I didn't believe that the Night's Watch was the most elite force in the Seven Kingdoms, but now I start to suspect that you have indeed killed the Stranger. ”

Fighting with the savages, any army will look like the most elite troops of the Seven Kingdoms, Egger was amused in his heart, and of course he couldn't extinguish his own prestige: "Well, thank you for the compliment, but I didn't deceive you in the first place." ”

"Call me Tyrion, I owe you a favor. The dwarf said, "As for what we agreed to do, I will try to make it happen." ”

"Then thank you in advance, Lord Tyrion...... Cough. Egg coughed, he had been forcing himself to obey the salutations and etiquette of Westeros's hierarchy, and now that he had returned to normal, it was a bit of a turn.

＊＊＊

It all started and ended quickly, and the Traveler didn't know exactly what he was like in Tyrion's eyes in the battle, but he knew in his heart that he wasn't doing anything spectacular.

The brave and fierce savages were now gathered under the command of Mance, and were stationed at the peak of the Frost and Snow Fang to discuss how to deal with the strangers, the wave of attackers was extremely weak even among their kind, and any trained soldier could not have lost the battle as long as he was not lucky enough to be shot by the first rain of arrows. In just a few minutes, the formation of a confrontation with the wildlings to the launch of a charge to drive away the enemy was just a matter of following the orders of the chief ranger and executing them quickly, and it was impossible for any other ranger to do much worse.

Only that he did it on his own initiative to protect Tyrion behind him, but it was purely out of consideration for himself to leave the Wall. Even if he didn't, the wildling's scattered rain of arrows was unlikely to threaten the gnomes...... Perhaps, it was this knee-jerk action that moved the Lannisters?

At this point, he naturally had no reason to expose his old roots, Tyrion probably saw real combat for the first time, and it was understandable that he was nervous to imagine that the person who drew his sword to protect him was braver and stronger than he actually was, this misconception was not deliberately created by him, but it didn't seem to hurt him, so he didn't need to explain much.

"How did the wildlings end up here?" Jon killed an enemy with his own hands for the first time in his life, and the mixture of guilt and hormonal stimulation made his face flush and unable to calm down for a long time, "I'm in Winterfell, and I rarely hear of this kind of news." ”

"It's actually been a long time since this happened, and it's dangerous to climb over the Great Wall. Iger explained with some heaviness, "If it's just survival, the abundant resources in the wolf forest are definitely enough for the wild people to eat...... But the wild people must have wanted to run further south, to find a place to spend the winter and hide from the strange spirits. But without transportation or food, it is impossible to escape the pursuit of the patrols of the northern princes and hold on to the neck, so they can only risk attacking us. Even if we don't catch us, the nearest village farmer will suffer. ”

"Strange ghosts. The more timid of the Lannister guards shuddered, "Isn't that a legendary spirit, does it really exist?"

On weekdays, they naturally don't believe in "nonsense" such as strange ghosts, but at this moment, they have just repelled a wave of sneak attacks in the dark, and it is when their thinking ability and reason are relatively weak, and the trees in the distance around them are swaying under the cold wind, making the surrounding shadows as if something is secretly staring at them, and the few people listening to Egg's words are a little creepy and nervous.

"Don't worry, this one has already killed one. Jon said excitedly, a little proud that he knew the Elf Slayer before anyone else, "If that thing does come out...... Egger, your obsidian dagger is still there. ”

"Here, don't worry, don't say that the strange ghosts can't cross the Great Wall, even if they can, I'll kill one by one. The traverser smiled and patted his bag and blew a.

......

Although his face was full of confidence, Egger couldn't feel at ease in his heart: at this moment, the north of the Great Wall had probably turned into a hell on earth, and there were no more small groups of savages left. Except for the 100,000 who gathered together to keep warm, the rest either fled over the Great Wall across the Grand Canyon into the north, or had become part of the ghoul army. Although he had made up his mind to leave the Great Wall to avoid confrontation with this group of things, he was a part of the human race of this world at this moment...... In case the Great Wall is broken through and the Seven Kingdoms are attacked on a large scale, he is a traverser who has no relatives, no reason, and no big forces behind him, even if he wants to escape to other continents, I am afraid it will be difficult to find a way.

After the people had finished their dinner interrupted by the savages, still unsleepy, and sat and chatted for a while, Bunyan came out of the tent and walked up to them: "Stop chattering, go to bed early." Here we can still find the remnants of the wall to rely on, and further north is a no-man's land, and at the pace of the previous two days, we still have to travel for three days and spend two nights in the wilderness. It was too dangerous, and after much thought, I decided to start a rapid march at dawn tomorrow, not camping at night, squeezing the horsepower, and trying to reach Castle Black for a day and a night. ”

Everyone nodded in agreement, and Iger knew that the plot had begun to change subtly, and this attack outside the original story was the biggest manifestation, and it was unknown whether its occurrence was caused by his own "butterfly": maybe it was his own presence that changed the group's itinerary back to the Great Wall, or maybe this wave of wildlings would have been killed by the strange ghost he killed...... In short, the direction of the plot has indeed changed, and accidents can come once and a second time, although the combat power of the savages is not terrible, but the arrows shot by the thrown stones can still kill people.

"Well, then, you guys go to bed first, and Jack and I are on duty in the first half of the night. Iger stood up, "Put things away, let's clean them up." ”

The crowd did as they were told, and the camp soon emptied to the empty space with a few people left, and Tyrion patted the traverser before leaving, "Well, you two be careful. ”

＊＊＊

The first half of the night was uneventful, and the second half of the night was Jon and Maurice's turn to be on duty, and the night was fine. When the sun rose the next day, everyone got up early, packed their tent luggage, put them on their horses, put them on their horses, and set off to continue north.

The weather has gotten harsher and the surface temperature has finally dropped below freezing, which means that falling snowflakes are already piling up on the ground. Rapid marches were a common occurrence for the Rangers, especially Egger, who had recently made the Ten-Day Escape...... But the rest of the team didn't have the stamina, and by the time the journey of more than a dozen hours across hundreds of leagues was over, Tyrion and the two Lannister guards had lost consciousness in their butts, and they entered the gates of Castle Black and descended from their horses to the ground, their legs trembling as if they had forgotten how to walk.
