On the riverside avenue of the Green Fork River, thousands of miles away from the valley, three ghoul prisoner cars were surrounded by locals. Among the people blocking the avenue were peasants, hunters, fishermen, mercenaries, itinerant singers, and local nobles.

The first ghoul prison cart had severed ghoul hands and feet hanging from the outside. A ghoul with severed hands and feet sat in a prison cart, his body held in place by four chains, his ice-blue eyes intimidating, hissing in his throat, and his teeth knocked out, a creature that could not pose any threat to people.

A pigtailed child held a long branch in his hand, and touched the motionless ghoul severed hand, and the ghoul severed hand suddenly moved, and his fingers flipped nimbly, and he grabbed the branch.

The child was horrified and struggled to grab it, but the branch was firmly grasped by the ghoul's severed hand, and suddenly the ghoul's hand loosened, and the child fell on his back. The onlookers were shocked and frightened, but they were soon amused by the children who fled in confusion and burst into laughter.

The ghoul in the second prison cart had no hands or arms, and Will had his arms cut off from his shoulders with a keel sword, and he also had no teeth in his mouth, and all his teeth were knocked out for safety, and Will kept his legs, which allowed him to move around the cart. He seemed to have become accustomed to being surrounded by many Terrans in the prisoner car, pointing and pointing, and the noise was like a tidal wave. He was no longer mad, but leaned against the wooden post of the prisoner's cart, his ice-blue eyes fixed on everyone, and from time to time he got up and walked around, and let out a few roars. But its attack power is also minimized.

Inside the third prison cart is a complete ghoul, with hands, feet and teeth, the damage and attack power are full of blood, and for safety, there are two rows of Northern Warriors and Great Wall Warriors around it to prevent the people from getting too close and being caught by the ghouls.

Not far from the ghoul prisoner cart, on the riverside, a banner of the Icewolf and a banner of the Great Wall of Desperation were unfurled in the wind. The military camp was set up under the banner, and the military camp of the Great Wall of Desperation was divided into two large camps, and the northern military camp was one large camp.

Will and Robb didn't expect that the car would be surrounded by enthusiastic people before it entered the Twin River Castle, and more and more people came to see the ghouls after hearing the news, and the number of people who came to see the ghouls continued unabated, so Will and Robb simply complied with the public opinion and showed the prisoner car on the spot for everyone to see.

The people were all seeing real ghouls for the first time, all of them were frightened and frightened but could not suppress their curiosity, men, women and children were in an endless stream, the prisoner car was stopped on the riverside avenue for three days, and the number of onlookers was still increasing day by day.

The entire territory of the Frey family in Twin Cities was aware of the ghoul prisoner car, and people from neighboring towns also rushed here to see it.

General Secretary Green, who accompanied the procession south, would go to the high platform set up next to the prisoner's car every day to preach two speeches of 'unite as one, unite with the strange spirits,' and his agitation was very incendiary and pierced people's hearts.

In the castle of Twin Rivers, the patriarch of the Frey family, Sir Stevren Frey, sat on a chair in the hall of the main castle, with his children standing beside him, and the chairs on both sides of the hall were filled with half-Frey brothers, and everyone talked about ghouls, many of whom Frey had gone to see the ghouls with his own eyes, and some women and children were planning to go there in the afternoon.

Stevren Frey is one of the few upright people in the Frey family, and the family is very much like weasels for genetic reasons.

"Brothers and children, I have received a letter from Robb Stark and Will asking me to contribute my money and efforts to follow them in the fight against the Wraiths and Ghouls in the dead of winter. Stevren Frey said. He showed the hall of more than 100 people the two letters he had received, one of which was stamped with the seals of the King and the Prime Minister, and the other with the seal of the Duke of Horst of Riverrun. ”

Stevren Frey passed the two letters to everyone.

The hall is full of Frey's blood, Stevren Frey is the eldest son of the late Walder Frey, and the oldest person in the entire hall, he is in his sixties, and he seems to be a little vicissitudes. He once led an army to follow Robb to attack the Western Frontier, and made great achievements.

The two letters were passed down from the children and grandchildren of the Frey family to Stevren's hands.

There are a lot of Frey in the hall, dozens of people in the son's generation, and even more in the grandchildren's generation. Stevren himself has grown up with his grandchildren. Some of these grandchildren are talented, and there is no shortage of ruthless people.

The late old Wald Frey kept marrying wives, and strangely enough, his wife never lived him so long, and the wife he married before his death was still a child younger than his granddaughter, but the old Walder still had the ability to impregnate the child. He left behind more than 100 descendants, the largest number of descendants in the entire kingdom.

"Why are we the first?" said Edwin Frey, Stevren's grandson, Steffron's eldest grandson and future heir to the throne. His opinion is important, although he belongs to the grandchildren, he has the right to inherit after the death of his father Lyman, and this is the weight.

Edwin Frey is a ruthless teenager. He was pale, slender like a woman, with a pointed nose and straight black hair. He treats everyone coldly, and everyone in the family thinks he is a teenager with hatred in his heart. Perhaps this stems from his thin body and the fact that he was often bullied by the children in his family.

But his life is good.

After Stevren Frey, the inheritance of the family is his father Lyman, and after Lyman, the family belongs to him. Lyman, on the other hand, was a weak man, and Edwin was often above his father in family matters.

Before my father could speak, he had already spoken.

"Grandpa, what is your opinion?" said a black, stocky young man faintly.

His name was Wad Frey, and he used the name of his grandfather, Wad Frey, and he was strong, powerful, and brave, and he always looked down on his brother Edwin, believing him unworthy of being the patriarch. To distinguish him from his grandfather's name, people called him Hewald.

Whatever Edwin advocates, Hawad will oppose.

The relationship between the two brothers is also like fire and water.

Edwin and his younger brother Hawad have been in conflict since they were sensible. Havard's assertion of adding himself to the succession sequence, ahead of Edwin, led Edwin to consider him a threat. However, Havard also has the support of many people in the family, because Edwin is a man who does not know how to use a sword compared to Havard, and he is indifferent to people, which is resented and despised by everyone.

Stevren said lightly: "Since the strange ghost is real, I will respond to the call of His Majesty and Duke Horst and contribute money and strength to fight the strange ghost." ”

"I agree with Grandpa. Hawade immediately raised his hand. He looked at Edwin expectantly, hoping that Edwin would object. He could see Edwin's opposition to his grandfather in Edwin's eyes.

"Anyone who agrees that we will send troops and money to fight the strangers, raise your hand and show me. Stevren said.

As the saying goes, dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and sons born to mice will drill holes, but Stevren is not like his father Wade, he is a person with a sense of justice and right and wrong, and the only thing that father and son have in common is that they both love their family very much.

Most of the more than 100 family members raised their hands.

Stevren looked at Edwin, the future heir to the family. 、

Contrary to Haward's expectations, Edwin raised his hand and said, "Grandfathers, uncles, brothers, since the Stranger does exist and will threaten the survival of all of us in the winter, Lord Will and Lord Robb have also done the best publicity here, and the people know what is at stake, then we can take advantage of the fight against the Stranger to greatly increase our taxes." ”
