There were a number of people standing outside Kerry's tall tent, all of whom were concerned about the birth of their children. Kerry's brother left only two daughters during his lifetime, and if Kerry's son can be born, then Kerry will definitely be the next chief of the Jackdaw tribe with the heir. There were strangers everywhere, and they were noisy and noisy. It wasn't until the tribe's sorcerer arrived, summoning a large cloud of flying mosquitoes to drive them away, that the place fell silent.

"All dodge, all dodge, I want to see the birth of a child and find my mother-in-law!" The wizard Long Zhong was old, hunched over, but he still spoke with confidence and a loud voice. He brought his apprentice to help, and was the only one who could enter and leave the tent except for Misara's maid. Fire pits were dug outside the tents, water was boiled in cauldrons, and a rough roof made of animal skins was propped up by wooden shelves to protect against sudden wind and rain on the grassland. There was also an uncovered fire downwind of the side, and several people were flipping large pieces of roast meat over the fire, and the smell made Siegel drool. With Janet's help, he walked over, and then a large piece of hind leg meat was handed over.

A strong man who did not know him said, "Come, warrior, eat first!" and then two large jars were handed over, one with light beer and the other with goat's milk. Siegel sat by the fire for a few moments, and his eyes were already full of food: bread, cheese, milk tofu, and grilled mushrooms and river fish. Siegel won the favor of the people here with his heroic battles, and also made them appreciate the wonderful battles, so the people here brought good food to let him feel the enthusiasm of the Jackdaw tribe.

Siegel dragged Janet and munched happily, then pulled Kerry over again. The giant was much more nervous now than he was in battle, and it even affected his ability to eat. He took a clean hind leg that he had gnawed on a long time ago, and still used it to grind his teeth. Even the dogs scurrying around gave up waiting for the bone, barked and ran away.

Production lasted for a long time, and the screams of the Messiah were constantly heard from the tent. The maids were busy going in and out, constantly changing towels and basins. The mother had a difficult birth, and everyone was very nervous, and Kerry was even more restless. He was a big man, and when he was born, his mother was tortured enough, and his body became very weak, and he died of a minor illness two years later. The giant has always been afraid in his heart that his child is also a big man, and will not take the life of the black wolf princess.

Fortunately, the cries from the tent were always strong and powerful, and the wizards also used blessed spiritual magic to bless the birth process. "I delivered you big guy, and that was a tough battle. Your son is not as exaggerated as you are, and your wife is much tougher than you think. This is her first production, so it's a bit of a struggle, don't worry. "The wizard came out in the middle and said a few words to everyone, and then went back to work.

It was busy from afternoon to midnight, and it was not easy for everyone to toss. Siegel's jar of candy helped a lot, and it added a lot of energy to the mother after pouring it. Today is the night of the full moon, and the stars in the sky are hidden in the bright moonlight, so the silver glow is sprinkled all over the earth. A cool wind blew from the east, causing the flames in the fire pit to flicker, and Janet was already covered with a blanket and fell asleep beside the fire. Kerry and Siegel sat beside them, very anxiously waiting—the Messira was screaming in pain again, and the wizard was yelling, "Come on, hard! and you'll be born!" — for the fifth time this evening.

"It's so hard. Kerry's face had turned pale many times, and this incident was definitely a test for him: "May the spirit of nature bless and the spirit of the ancestors bless." ”

Siegel didn't know how to comfort him, he was thinking about something else. The birth of a life is so difficult, and both the child and the mother have to suffer painfully, so why would a mother abandon her child? He had never been willing to think about it before, but this situation aroused deep doubts in his heart. Captain Marlene made it very clear that it had been three to five days since Siegel was found, and that there were no female passengers on that trip, especially pregnant ones. So Siegel can only be a child of God, without a mother. Siegel never believed this, but he couldn't argue with the old captain's words - sometimes he even wishfully wished that he was the old captain's illegitimate son and had been made up a story to be brought to the ship to raise. But his strange appearance did not bear any resemblance to the captain, and this last hope was dashed.

If I had a mother, hopefully my birth hadn't caused her as much pain – this might be the only thing I could do for her. Siegel thought to himself.

The moonlight flickered, and Siegel looked up curiously, but found nothing. Some clouds drifted in from the east and began to slowly obscure the moon's rays. Maybe it's a small cloud. Siegel thought he was wrong. But at this moment, a brief flash of fire suddenly appeared in the black night sky, in the shadow formed by the high mountains on the northern horizon.

He had a bad feeling, as if he had returned to the tension he felt when he was a sailor and stood on a watchtower and spotted a pirate. He patted Kerry and pointed to the night to the north: "Look, what's there?"

"It's dark, nothing. The giant narrowed his eyes, examined it carefully, and then said, "Are you too sleepy, go to bed quickly." ”

"No, there must be something. The feeling in Siegel's heart grew stronger and stronger, a unsettling feeling, unable to grasp an inexplicable evil atmosphere. He frowned, praying inwardly that his feelings were wrong. Until he suddenly discovered an anomaly.

"Why can't the mountains in the distance see their outlines? Why are they all pitch black? Where are the shadows?"

Suddenly, a blinding light flashed, and a fire broke out in the distant grassland, and black shadows tumbled and jumped in the slender line of fire. Then came the sound of a trumpet, hurried and nervous, a warning horn. The sound only rang for a moment before it stopped abruptly, but it was enough for the people in the tent to hear it clearly.

"Something's wrong! it's the Black Sheep Tribe!" Kerry hurriedly called the soldiers and told him to inform the leaders. "We're going to hurry up and help them. ”

"Let's think about saving ourselves. Siegel's eyes had seen the change: distant flames were burning brightly, but above the sky, a small flame was flying swiftly towards where they were.

The horn sounded in the camp three times, which was the highest warning signal, indicating that there was a surprise attack, and all fighters needed to be prepared to fight to the death. However, there were too many tribes gathered here, and the meaning of the horn signal between them was different, which quickly caused confusion.

"Guard, Guard, Prepare the horses!" Kerry commanded his right-wing "Giants", constantly giving orders: "Take the women and children to the holes! Get all the men ready! Go to the well and fetch water for those who are not armed, and get moving!"

But there was too little time left for them to act, and the flames soon approached the Jackdaw Tribe.

A pair of huge red wings burst out of the shadows, blocking out the moonlight and covering half of the sky. Behind it is a long tail that crosses the air in an elegant arc. At the top of its long crooked neck was a huge head, and its golden eyes shone with a terrifying light. Flames rolled through its mouth, gurgling out between its sharp teeth. His nose was spewing black smoke, his paws dripping with blood, and his solid, tight scales gleamed in the firelight. Siegel was pretty sure it was a red dragon.

First, a strong sense of fear enveloped the tribe like substance, and for a moment there was silence on the ground, as if even the wind and fire had been frozen. Then there was a loud roar that was deafening, and the blazing flames filled the sky, and everyone cried, screamed, and then burned.

The red dragon swept over the camp, leaving a burning ditch and splitting the camp in half like a cake, much to his satisfaction. Although it has dark vision, it can't see too far in the dark, and it needs enough flames as a light source. And the letting of humans wailing, struggling, and then dying in agony in a sea of fire is its favorite drama – a sight like this that has not been seen in a long time.

At this moment, a painful sensation came from a scale behind it, and then a voice clearly appeared in its mind: "Hurry back, enclose the camp with flames, and don't let one go." ”

'Nasty Death Knight!' the red dragon immediately turned around, turned his head and flew back, lowering his height and bending his neck to allow the flames to spit out longer, drawing circles around the camp.

At this time, the warriors of the Jackdaw tribe had already reacted and launched attacks on this monster one after another. A rain of arrows rushed towards the red dragon, most of them missed, and the rest were broken off by the dragon's scale armor and fell back to the ground. The arrows that flew with the dragon's wings were swept up by the air current, and many flew back, and many of those who were scattered and fled on the ground were hit by these arrows, and fell to the ground wailing.

The flames in the dragon's mouth never stopped, and he circled around the camp before circling in the air. Some of the people who lived on the edge were lucky enough to escape the ring of fire, and they ran madly across the grassland, trying to get away from it. The red dragon flapped its wings and chased after it.

"Prince, the flame cannot be extinguished, and it is useless to pour water on it!" came a warrior with a disgraced face, his arms and chest blackened. "The smoke from the fire is still poisonous, and many people have passed out!"

"Trample on it, or you'll all be burned to death!" Kerry roared, as high pitched as the Messirah's voice. Siegel grabbed his arm at once, and hurriedly persuaded him: "Don't be impulsive, that flame cannot be extinguished! Don't you have a hole in the ground? Quickly dig from the ground and avoid the ground as much as possible!"

"Yes, save the woman and the child first!" the giant nodded, gradually calming down, and said, "Except for the archers and spearmen, everyone else is going to maintain the safety and order of the tunnels." Collect digging tools and send them down, so that they can save themselves quickly. ”

"But there aren't so many people in the cellar, what should I do?"

"Then it's up to us. The ring of fire must be stopped from turning into a sea of fire. Go ahead, get moving!"
