"Chirp—"

The sound of breaking through the air, which should have been crisp and pleasant, hurt everyone's ears because of the loud volume, and Melisandre snorted and lost her balance and fell backwards on the dirty ice.

Egg broke out in a cold sweat. He didn't actually see the trajectory of the flying foreign object at all, but the flash of light in his field of vision activated the buried memories of distress, and he reflexively responded in time - he knew very well that if the enemy wanted to attack someone present, then himself, who had left the mark of the cold god because he had killed the strange spirit, and Melisandre, who was a believer in the red god and mastered the magic of fire, were undoubtedly the two easiest targets.

His push was not only to save Melisandre, but he himself used the reaction force to retreat from the place.

Then, sure enough, something flew by.

The gray-white shadow flew like a small ghost from where Melisandre had stood, and after nearly a mile of distance, it quickly disappeared into the gray-white sky south of the Great Wall with its aftermath.

If it weren't for Egger's push, the red-robed woman would have been killed on the spot by being pierced through her chest.

......

The Great Wall is so high that there are so few people with ranged weapons who can reach the top that the night watchmen stand on it without warning. The other officers around only saw Iger suddenly push down the red-robed woman, and then a loud sound of breaking the air came, and it took a few seconds for the aftermath to dissipate before everyone reacted.

"What was that?" Mormont almost suspected that he was old-eyed, and he looked back in shock, but he could no longer see what had flown past him a moment ago.

"The weapon thrown by the strange ghost, I was also almost killed by this trick. "Ice sword, ice spear, or just a stone?" Egg didn't really see it, he took two steps back, left the danger zone, and crouched down to help the witch on the ground, "Lady Melisandre, are you alright?" ”

"Hmm...... I'm fine. The red-robed woman stood up, her face pale, her hand covering her left arm. Never since Egg had known her, the woman had behaved like an ordinary person: "Worthy of being servants of the cold gods, I was still thinking about how to deal with them just now...... Careless. ”

Before the words fell, another loud bang came, the Great Wall seemed to be hit by a cannonball, the ice under everyone's feet actually loosened and cracked in the vibration, and the edge of a section of the ice buttress that prevented the sentry from falling collapsed along with the base more than a meter wide, and the cracked broken ice rolled down, frightening the surrounding soldiers to retreat from the edge of the Great Wall.

The Wraith's second long-range attack hit the Great Wall! Judging from the location of the "shot", it is likely that the enemy wanted to penetrate the ice and kill Melisandre, who had been pulled into the throwing corner, but the ice was frozen far stronger than the opponent thought, so it did not succeed.

It's not safe here!

"Ma'am, please leave the top of the Great Wall, the strange ghost can sense your location!"

The spell was forcibly interrupted, leaving the witch in dizziness and pain, but she didn't hold it and nodded. The attentive soldier took the initiative to help her in the direction of the elevator, opened the door to enter, and went down to the ground.

The strange ghost that Iger had killed two years ago had no more than half a meter into a tree, but this time Melisandre had been able to break through more than a meter of solid ice...... Is it because the aliens who attack are more powerful, or are these ghosts stronger than they used to be over time?

The attack of the second cannonball-like unidentified projectile shattering part of the ice wall frightened all the soldiers on the top of the Great Wall, but fortunately the third attack did not come, presumably this powerful attack method was not easy even for the strangers, and soon a night watchman exclaimed: "Lord Commander-in-Chief, the fire below...... It's like it's going to be destroyed!"

Ignoring the threat of the Stranger's long-range attack and Egger's dissuasion, Mormont approached the edge of the Great Wall and looked down: the wildfire and asphalt lamp oil in the oil barrel had long been consumed by the catalytic combustion of the combustion spell, and the towering wall of flames a moment ago was actually completely the flashback of the wooden fence and door panels under the power of the spell— Without the help of fire magic, a small amount of wood would not have been able to produce this burning effect, and as soon as Melisandre's spell was broken, the wall of fire immediately withered into a puddle of reddish charcoal on the ground, and the heat was still there, but it could no longer immediately destroy the trampling ghouls.

Without hesitation, the tide of black-pressed ghouls squeezed back towards the entrance to the Black Castle, and the two tall corpse giants had already staggered to the middle of the barrier between the Ghost Forest and the Great Wall - it would be a disaster for either of these two big creatures to squeeze into the passage and get stuck before the gates closed. The simple living dead may be easy to deal with, just light a fire at the mouth of the tunnel, and prepare some dragon crystal weapons, even if there are 100,000 ghouls can't pass through the Great Wall, but the black castle is crowded with wild people who have just passed through at the moment, and in this chaotic situation, they are drilled in by ghouls, and even if the night watchman has a thousand means, he can't use the slightest bit!

The ballista that could have been returned to color had been moved down to prevent the wildlings from unraveling, but Mormont's long-range "decapitation" attack on Melisandre had been an eye-opener for Mormont, who realized that he was facing a group of opponents with wisdom and unknown means, and that as the commander-in-chief of the Night's Watch, he did not dare to be careless in the face of this cunning and dangerous enemy.

Gritting his teeth, Elder Xiong made a difficult decision: "Horn! Ready!"

"Has Jaime been on the Wall?"

"I don't think so, there are several brothers in black down there!" Mormont took a breath, determined to leave him alone: "It's too late, blow the trumpet, close the door!"

Iger stomped his foot, too late to argue with his boss, and turned his head to ask the other night watchmen behind him, "What about that little hanging basket, which one was used when Mance came in to negotiate?"

"In the corner over there!"

"Put it down!"

The iron gate rumbled down, and the last wild man who passed was almost crushed, and he fell to the ground and barely rolled in, and a woman holding the child saw that she had no hope of passing, threw the baby in her arms out of her hand, and watched the child fly in through the gap before the iron gate closed, before she was satisfied to pick up the torch dropped on the ground, and turned back to face the flood of ghouls.

The sound of the iron gate landing sentenced everyone who had not yet entered the passage to death, the oil drums and rockets could no longer stop the pale tide of ghouls from engulfing the last few hundred, and the black figures of the night watchmen on duty today were like black ink dripping into the sewage, and they were never to be found again in an instant.

......

The steel sword he had brought from Castle Rock had been curled, but it was still a slaughter weapon under Jaime, spinning like a spinning top, slicing and slicing every draugr he pounced on. Looking at the endless living dead pouring into him with fangs and claws, the monarch killer felt relieved.

He seems to be able to have a fairly good ending, the only regret is that he didn't even see the legendary "strange ghost", and he was forced to a dead end by these things that are said to be just small soldiers.

A dark shadow swayed overhead, and when he looked up, it was a small, one-person gondola, not fixed by rails like a lift cage, spinning and swaying in the wind. Constantly shaking, he hesitated for a second, and finally cut down a ghoul, and when the hanging basket shook in front of him again, he jumped up decisively and grabbed the thick rope holding the hanging basket.
