Chapter 13: The Legend of the Barbarians

That night, Mira had a very strange dream. www.biquge.info He dreamed that he had transformed into a skeleton and walked into the Medicine King Palace, walking alone in a dark corridor, pushing open a heavy stone door and entering a spacious stone chamber. The stone chamber was densely packed with standing skeletons, white, gray, purple, and golden. Sensing that the stone door was pushed open, the skeletons turned their heads in unison, and thousands of pairs of hollow eyes stared at the small skeleton that Mira had transformed, and three black lines suddenly appeared on the forehead of the little skeleton.

As he was stunned, a ghostly light flashed in front of the stone chamber, and then a death knight covered in black armor appeared on the high platform, he drew his huge horse chopping knife, and pulled the reins with force, and the skeleton warhorse man stood up and let out a silent neigh. All the skeletons in the stone chamber also raised the bone knife in their hands and let out a silent cry with their mouths wide open.

Mira was startled, and also raised her thin bony hand, but the death knight had obviously noticed him, and Mira felt a crimson bright light tear through the space in an instant, and suddenly grabbed her soul tightly, and then squeezed it fiercely. He woke up with a scream, covered in sweat.

The tent that could have held one or two hundred people was left with only their group, and it looked unusually empty. At Mira's shout, Skode, who was sleeping not far away, rolled over and got up, half-crouched on the ground and looked around vigilantly; the little sparrow opened his eyes and looked, and fell into a deep sleep again; One-Eye did not seem to react at all, except that the sword that had been held in his hand was slightly sideways; as for the fast legs, foodies, and big men on the other side of the tent, they snorted one after another, and seemed to be unaffected.

Mira scratched the back of her head and said to Skod embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I had a nightmare, you can go back to sleep, don't worry about me." With that, he put on his clothes and walked out of the tent.

The moonlight was like water, and there was no movement in the camp except for a few groups of soldiers who occasionally came out to patrol. Mira held her forehead and sat casually on the ground. The scene in the dream just now was too real, as if she was still in that strange stone room, and the kind of horror that penetrated deep into the soul made Mira tremble again.

Mira took a deep breath, felt her organ from her pocket, and began to play a requiem: "My lord, save the souls of those who have died by faith from hell and the abyss of suffering, and save them from the mouths of lions, and let hell devour them and let them fall into endless darkness." Let Michael, the leader of the angels, bring them the holy light of the Lord as you have made to mankind.

This requiem is a must for the college exam, and Mira has never been able to grasp the essence of it, and has failed several times. Unexpectedly, on this night, Mira seemed to be possessed by Mozart all of a sudden, and blew the whole movement in that kind of trembling that touched the soul. At the end of the song, Mira's face was full of tears, and it seemed that many feelings came to her heart, but there were no words.

Early the next morning, Mira was woken up from her sleep by the military horn, stretched lazily, and was about to ask Fast Legs to pour herself a glass of water, when she suddenly saw Fast Legs' mouth open and become O-shaped: "Commander, what's wrong with your face?"

Mira also felt that something seemed to be wrong on her face, and reached out to touch it, and found that a small protrusion grew in the middle of her forehead.

Several other people also came around: "Could it be that you have eaten too much guinea fowl these days and are on fire?"

"It's not like it's on fire, it's like a black pimple, this is the youth of the regiment commander who has nowhere to put it. ”

"I'm going to touch it too, it's hard, like a calf's horns, you don't have demon blood, Captain, right?"

"It is said that the horns of the demon grow on both sides of the head, and the head of the regiment grows on the door of the head, not like it, but it looks like a unicorn. ”

Mira got angry: "You don't have anything else to do early in the morning, do you? I just have a black mole, what is there to watch, I'll go to the doctor and get rid of this later." ”

Mira's worries finally became a reality, and she found several Jianghu doctors who set up stalls on the street, and the other party shook her head and said that she couldn't help, and a lewd uncle also hugged Mira's shoulders affectionately and said: "Young man, it's not a bad thing, but it's the first time I've seen the willow on my face." By the way, how is that chick's technique?" After laughing several times in a row, Mira angrily found a torn helmet in the barracks, just enough to cover the little black bump.

When she really calmed down, Mira finally found that she was a little different, it seemed that her senses of sight, hearing, smell and everything were a little sharper than before, and her body seemed to be a lot more flexible when she walked and jumped. It was as if Mira had stepped into a new world, he could see the rainbow of the scorching sun, he could touch the halo of the moonlight, he could hear the breath of the wind, he could feel the murmur of his soul.

At first, Mira was terrified, he always saw the endless splendor and heard inexplicable sounds, but everyone else around him was unaware, as if it were all his own hallucination. After a few days, Mira slowly got used to the situation, except for the small bumps on her head and the occasional sharp pain.

Eventually, the Fifth Water Convoy had enough people to need, and Singh informed Mira that she could go. The foodie brought a large basket of guinea fowl, the little sparrow put on the newly bought fur, and everyone seemed to have little nostalgia for Stilwell, except for Scott who waved to his sister standing at the city gate as he walked, his face full of reluctance. One-Eye suddenly asked, "Skode, what's your nickname?" Skod finally took his gaze back, looked at the distant road ahead and took a deep breath: "When I was in the hunting party, they all called me Night Feather. ”

Accompanying the convoy was a group of barbarian berserkers who had newly joined the expeditionary legion, supposedly the Kempinski lord for five hundred carts of rice in exchange for support, led by the son of a chieftain of some tribe. They rejected all kindness from Singh, and only ate the hard dried meat they brought, and they could sleep soundly by spreading a random animal skin on the ground, and when they found a big rock in the way, they would scramble to lift the stone and throw it into the distance, as if to see who was stronger.

Singh poked out of the carriage and sighed: "These barbarians are really perverted, they have to walk by themselves if they don't sit in a car, and here is hundreds of miles to the front line, if I have to get tired, I have to lie down." ”

Mira put the front of the helmet on her eyebrows, looking as if she had a cauldron on it, and asked curiously: "Some of these barbarians are wearing sackcloth, and some are directly naked, without even a single armor, can they really fight?"

Singh hurriedly said: "Don't be heard by them, if you know that you question their combat effectiveness, someone will definitely ask for a duel with you." Although these barbarians are not very well equipped, they are really fatal to fight, if it weren't for them, the human race of our Lin Fan Continent would have been wiped out by the Yellow Peril a long time ago. ”

"Yellow Peril?

Singh took a sip of hot tea, leaned comfortably on the inner cushion of the carriage, and sighed contentedly: "From here all the way to the north, far to the north, there is a place called the Orc Wasteland, where the orcs live. It was so cold and desolate that many orcs died of starvation, and they always wanted to go south to occupy the warm homes of humans, but they were always driven back by humans again and again. ”

"In the war between gods and demons, mankind has suffered heavy losses, but the orcs in the north have been recuperating, and finally, among the ignorant orcs, a true wise man appeared, and people called him Genghis Khan. Genghis Khan unified the orc wasteland with all the steppe deserts in the north, and then he divided his army and marched south from the east and west at the same time. The Chinese kingdom in the east was once extremely powerful, but in just ten years it was conquered by the cyclops and Beamon, and the last emperor of the Chinese kingdom committed suicide by throwing himself into the sea in Yashan. ”

"The human race in the west formed a million coalition army to fight Genghis Khan in the Khati steppe, but he was easily defeated by him using Mangu tactics, and all the millions of captives were buried alive, and the human race had almost no soldiers to fight, because the orcs mostly had an earthy yellow coat, so people called them the Yellow Peril. At this time, the human commander Duke Salas recited the ancient covenant, and countless barbarians came out of the deep mountains, from the barren valleys, and from the swamps, and they flashed the power of the faith of the god of war, and rushed towards the wolf cavalry all over the mountains and fields one after another, and finally killed Genghis Khan with supreme courage and strength. The orcs were in a hurry to compete for the throne of the Khan, and they had no intention of fighting, and they were finally driven back to the orc wasteland. And the Duke of Salas directly gave the entire Hatti steppe to the barbarians as a territory, firstly, to express his gratitude, and secondly, to prevent the orcs from going south again. ”

Mira praised repeatedly: "Captain Singh, I didn't expect your story to be told so well, it seems that I will definitely not be bored along the way." Singh grinned and was about to speak, when suddenly there was a rapid and continuous sound of military horns outside, and Singh suddenly bounced up from the seat of the car and shouted: "Get out of the car, everyone get out of the car." ”
