Game of Thrones: Holy Flame King

At this time, Junlin City seemed to be in the middle of the night, except for the brief light brought by the lightning across the sky from time to time, it was almost invisible.

The roaring thunder made people's eardrums ache, but what made people more worried was the deep and depressing sound of the horn.

That is the signal that represents the enemy's attack, and it is the signal to prepare for battle.

But O'Matt didn't understand at all, who is his enemy?

Could it be the Southern Army?

But didn't the news just come that the lords in the city had reached an agreement and were ready to surrender to Caesar?

As a soldier under the Raffles family of Golden Tooth City in the western region, Omat actually didn't want to fight for a long time.

The southern army came across the river, unstoppable, but the northern coalition army was defeated again and again, so they had to retreat to King's Landing.

Even Lord Tywin Lannister was assassinated.

In the minds of people in the western region, Tywin is comparable to the existence of gods, a symbol of victory and power.

Although Tywin was clearly at a disadvantage in the head-on confrontation with Caesar the Storm King, but as long as the lion of Casterly Rock City is still there, no one in the Western Region will be in despair.

But now, Tywin is dead, which is tantamount to the collapse of the sky for the people in the western region.

This is the case for Omat. Now he only wants to escape back to Golden Tooth City, put down his sword, pick up a hoe, and take care of the fields. After all, autumn is coming to an end. If we don’t store more food, I’m afraid it will be difficult to survive the coming winter.

As for whether Tommen Baratheon or Samwell Caesar sat on the Iron Throne, for these low-level soldiers, there was not much difference.

So Omat almost jumped for joy when he learned that King Tommen had agreed to surrender.

The comrades-in-arms were obviously also relieved, with uncontrollable joy on their faces, and the whole camp exuded a relaxed and happy atmosphere.

Even when the storm came, the violent storm overturned countless tents and made the soldiers drown, but when they thought of ending this war, their hearts were still full of enthusiasm.

Until the ear-piercing sound of the horn was heard.

Omat's first reaction was that Caesar rejected the surrender of the northern nobles and ordered the storming of King's Landing.

This should also be what most northern soldiers think in their hearts.

Panic and anger spread throughout the army, and the soldiers cursed even though they had to take up arms and prepare for battle.

No one wants to fight another war, and it's a lost one.

"Let's run!" A voice suddenly came out of the storm.

O'Matt couldn't see who said it, but the words clearly pierced his heart.

"How to run? The southerners are surrounded by King's Landing, we can't escape!"

"Southerners only surrounded the west and north sides."

"The south of King's Landing is the Black Water River, and the east is the Black Water Bay. Now that there is such a big storm, are we looking for death when we go out?"

"We didn't let you go into the sea, so we hid in Port King's Landing, or on the shallows. Anyway, as long as we survive the melee in the city, we can survive."

There is some truth to this statement. The twelve soldiers in this team exchanged a round of glances with each other, and they were all moved.

Just at this time, the nobles were not there, and the storm intensified the chaos. Even if they ran away, no one would care about them.

As for the aftermath of the war, there will be no one to hold them accountable for running away.

run!

After making up their minds, the team immediately started to act.

O'Matt followed suit.

In fact, they were definitely not the only soldiers in the city who wanted to escape at this time.

The Northern Allied Forces had already lost their fighting spirit in a series of defeats, and Tywin's death made them even more disheartened. Now that they heard the battle horn, their first reaction was not to resist, but how to escape.

The southern army surrounded the west and north sides of King's Landing, so most of the soldiers in the city wanted to escape through the southeast gate.

Even if the southeast is blocked by rivers and seas, and there are storms raging, it is still stronger than facing the swords of the Southern Army.

As a result, groups of deserters began to spontaneously gather in the southeast direction.

At this time, the knights of the Northern Allied Army rushed back one after another, but found that most of their soldiers had disappeared.

In this kind of ghostly weather, it was very difficult to transmit orders, and the northern knights had no choice but to gather the remnants of the army and tell them that the southern army had not broken their promises, and there was no need to panic, but there might be enemies at sea.

This remark made the soldiers both relieved and confused again.

They could not understand how there could be enemies at sea.

The knights actually didn't understand, but since the Storm King had given the order, they could only follow the order and lead their soldiers to the southeast two city walls.

Omat and other deserters who took the first step had already arrived at Mudmen.

Originally, they were still worrying about how to open the gate, but they didn't expect that the city gate had already been opened, and it seemed that the soldiers guarding the gate had already run away.

O'Mate and the others were naturally rejoiced, and hurried out of the city, heading south.

To the south of Mud Gate is King's Landing Port, but in this terrible weather, obviously no one dared to leave by boat.

Omat and others just wanted to hide in the port for a while, and wait for the storm to end before finding a boat to escape.

At this time, the storm was at its most intense, and the sky and the earth were pitch black, and it was almost impossible to see anything.

clatter——

Following the sound of the waves, Omat and others came to the water's edge in the dark.

"There seems to be something in the water!" a voice exclaimed.

"Maybe it's the crew who fell into the water." O'Mate said nonchalantly.

But in the next second, terrified screams suddenly sounded.

"What's going on?" O'Mate immediately drew out his sword, vigilant in his heart.

But no one can answer that question.

Immediately afterwards, screams sounded one after another, and at the same time there was the sound of swords slashing.

"There are enemies in the water!"

I don't know who yelled.

Omat was so scared that he took several steps back, trying to stay away from the water.

But behind him was the Mud Gate, and in his mind, there was a more terrible battle there.

Just when O'Matt was at a loss, a thick lightning flashed across the sky. With this brief light, the deserters finally saw the situation on the pier clearly.

Maybe they'd rather not see it clearly.

Because a large group of things who don't know whether they are people or ghosts are crawling out of the sea water. Their skin is white and rotten, and some even have a large piece of flesh and blood. There is no human emotion in the eyes, almost like a beast.

"What the hell is this!" O'Mate saw a monster with only half of his body gnawing on a corpse on the ground, and he was terrified to the extreme.

"Kill them!" A soldier yelled wildly, and slashed at them with his sword.

The traces of lightning faded from the sky, and the world was once again shrouded in darkness.

O'Mate couldn't see the battle between the two sides, but he could clearly hear his companion's screams turning into screams, and then into horrible chewing sounds.

"Run!" Someone yelled.

O'Matt turned and ran back.

In their hearts at this moment, the swords of the Southern Army are not as terrifying as the monsters crawling out of the water.
