Twenty Sided Dice

Chapter 56: Savage Territory Ten

There were many people standing outside Kerry's tall tent, and they were all concerned about the birth of the child. Kerry's brother only left two daughters before his death. If Kerry's son can be born smoothly, then by virtue of the offspring, Kerry will definitely be the next chief of the Jackdaw tribe. There are strangers all around, making noises and noises. It was not until the wizard of the tribe arrived and summoned a large group of flying mosquitoes to drive them away, and the place was quiet.

"Get out of the way, stay out of the way, I want to see the birth of a child and find my mother-in-law!" The wizard Long Zhong was old-fashioned and hunched over, but his words were still full of confidence and his voice was loud. He brought his apprentice to help, and was the only one who could go in and out of the tent apart from Misara's maid. A fire pit was dug outside the tent, a large pot was used to boil water, and a rough roof made of animal skins was supported by a wooden frame to prevent the sudden wind and rain on the grassland. There was an unroofed fire next to it downwind. Several people were turning large pieces of barbecue on the fire. The aroma made Siegel drool. With Janet's help, he walked over, and then a large piece of hind leg was handed over.

A strong man who did not know said, "Come on, warrior, eat first!" Then two big jars were handed over, one with light beer and the other with goat milk. Siegel sat by the fire for a while, and the food was already piled up in front of him: bread, cheese, milk tofu, and roasted mushrooms and river fish. Siegel won the favor of the people here with his heroic battle, and let them appreciate the wonderful battle, so the people here brought delicious food to let him feel the enthusiasm of the Jackdaw tribe.

Siegel dragged Janet to chew happily, and then pulled Kerry over. The giant is more nervous now than when he was fighting, and it even affects his motivation to eat. He took a clean hind leg that he had gnawed long ago, and still used it to grind his teeth. Even the dog that was running around gave up waiting for that bone, and ran away barking.

The production went on for a long time, and the shouts of Myrcella kept coming from the tent. The maids were busy in and out, constantly changing towels and water basins. The mother encountered a dystocia, and the group was very nervous, and Kerry was even more restless. He was a big man, and when he was born, he tortured his mother so much that he became very weak, and 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 he take the life of the black wolf princess.

Fortunately, the cry from the tent has always been strong and powerful, and the wizard also uses the spirit of blessing to bless the birth process. "I gave birth to a big man like you, and that was a tough fight. Your son isn't as exaggerated as you are, and your wife is much tougher than you think. It's her first delivery, so it's a bit more laborious, Don't worry." The wizard in the middle came out and said a few words to everyone, and then went back to work.

It was busy from the afternoon until midnight, but it was a lot of trouble for everyone. Siegel's jar of candy helped a lot, adding a lot of physical strength to the mother after drinking it. Today is the night of the full moon, and the stars in the sky are hidden under the bright moonlight, so the silver radiance spreads all over the earth. A cool breeze from the east made the flames sway in the fire pit, and Janet was already covered in a blanket and sleeping beside the fire. Kerry and Siegel squatted beside them, waiting impatiently - Myrcella began to cry out in pain again, and the wizard was shouting "Come on, work hard! It's almost born!" - This is already The fifth time tonight.

"It's so difficult." Kerry's face has turned pale many times. This matter is definitely a test for him: "I hope the spirit of nature will bless you, and the spirit of the ancestors will protect you."

Siegel didn't know how to comfort him, he was thinking of something else. The birth of a life is so difficult, and both the child and the mother have to suffer, so why do mothers abandon their children? He had never been reluctant to think deeply about this issue before, but this situation aroused doubts deep in his heart. Captain Marlene made it very clear that Siegel was only three or five days old when he was found, and that there were no female passengers on that journey - especially pregnant female passengers. So Siegel could only be a child of God without a mother. Siegel never believed this, but he couldn't refute the old captain's words—sometimes he even wished he was the old captain's illegitimate child, and was made up a story to be brought on board to raise. But his grotesque appearance bears no resemblance to the captain, and this last hope is dashed.

'If I had a mother, I hope my birth didn't cause her that much pain - it's probably the only thing I can do for her. ' Siegel thought to himself.

The moonlight flickered, and Siegel looked up curiously, but found nothing. A few clouds drifted in from the east and began to slowly obscure the moon's light. 'Maybe a little cloud. ' Siegel thought he had read it wrong. But at this time, a short-lived fire suddenly appeared in the black night sky, in the shadow formed by the tall mountains on the horizon to the north.

He had a bad feeling, as if he was back when he was a sailor, standing on the watchtower before discovering the pirates. He patted Kerry and pointed to the dark night to the north: "Look, what's there?"

"It's dark, there's nothing." The giant narrowed his eyes, checked it carefully, and said, "Are you too sleepy? Go to bed quickly."

"No, there must be something." The feeling in Siegel's heart became stronger and stronger. It was an uneasy feeling, unable to grasp an unexplained evil atmosphere. He frowned, praying that his feelings were wrong. Until he suddenly discovered an anomaly.

"How come the mountains in the distance can't see the outline? Why are they all dark? Where did the shadow go?"

Suddenly, a dazzling light flashed, and the grassland in the distance was ablaze, with black shadows rolling and jumping in the slender line of fire. Then came the sound of the horn, rapid and nervous, the horn of warning. The sound stopped abruptly after only a while, but it was enough for the people in the tent to hear it clearly.

"Something happened! That's the Black Sheep Tribe!" Kerry hurriedly called the soldiers and asked him to inform the leaders. "We have to hurry to help them."

"Think about saving yourself first." Siegel's eyes had already seen the change: the flames in the distance were blazing, but above the sky, there was a small flame that was flying straight towards where they were.

The horn sounded in the camp, three full times. This was the highest warning message, indicating that there was a surprise attack, and all soldiers needed to be prepared to fight to the death. But there were too many tribes gathered here, and the horn signals between them had different meanings, and confusion soon followed.

"Alert! Alert! Get the horses ready!" Kerry commanded his right-wing "giant regiment", giving constant orders: "Take the women and children to the burrows! Get all the men ready! All who don't have weapons go. Draw water from the well, act quickly!"

But there was too little time for them to act, and the fire quickly approached the Jackdaw tribe.

A pair of huge red wings burst out of the shadows, blocking the moonlight and covering half the sky. There was also a long tail dragging behind it, drawing elegant arcs in the air. At the top of the long curved neck is a huge head, and the golden eyes shine with terrifying light. Flames tumbled in its mouth, bursting out of the gaps in its sharp teeth. There was black smoke from his nose, blood dripping from his claws, 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 entire tribe as if it were real, and for a moment there was silence on the ground, as if even the wind and fire had been frozen. Then came the deafening roar, the fiery flames, and everyone cried, screamed, and burned.

The red dragon swept across the camp, leaving a burning ditch, and also cut the camp in half like a cake, which made him very satisfied. Although it has darkvision, it can't see too far in the dark, and it also needs enough fire to be a light source. And making humans wailing, struggling, and dying in agony in a sea of ​​fire is its favorite drama—it’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a sight.

At this time, there was a pain in a scale behind it, and then a voice clearly appeared in its mind: "Fly back quickly, encircle the camp with flames, don't let one go."

'Disgusting death knight! ’ The red dragon immediately turned around, turned its head and flew back, lowered its height, bent its neck, and let the flames breathe for a longer time ~www.novelmt.com~ and circled the camp.

At this time, the warriors of the Jackdaw tribe had already reacted and attacked this monster one after another. A shower of arrows rushed towards the red dragon, most of which were lost, and the rest were also broken by the dragon's scales and fell back to the ground. The arrows of those flying dragon wings were rolled up by the air current, and many flew back. Many people who were fleeing on the ground were hit by these arrows and fell to the ground crying.

The flames in the dragon's mouth didn't stop, he circled the camp in a big circle, and then hovered in the air. Some people who lived on the edge were lucky enough to escape the fire ring, and they ran wildly on the grasslands like crazy, trying to get away from here. The red dragon fluttered its wings and chased after him.

"Prince! That flame can't be put out at all, and it's useless to pour water on it!" A soldier ran in dismay, his arms and chest were blackened. "The smoke from the fire is poisonous, and many people have passed out!"

"Stand on and stamp out, or you'll all be burned to death!" Kerry roared loudly, as high as Myrcella's voice. Siegel grabbed his arm all of a sudden, and hurriedly persuaded: "Don't be impulsive, that flame can't be stepped on! Don't you have a hole in the ground? Hurry up and dig from the ground, avoiding the ground as much as possible!"

"Yes! Save the women and children first!" The giant nodded, gradually calmed down, and said, "Except for the archers and spear throwers, everyone else is going to maintain the safety and order of the tunnel. Collect digging tools and send them down, let them Help yourself now."

"But the cellar can't hold so many people, what should I do?"

"Then it's up to us. We must stop the ring of fire from turning into a sea of ​​fire. Go, act quickly!"
