Empire sent a powerful Legendary to Northwind Province. What surprised Ryan was that this one actually belonged to Meyers.

"Legendary "Demon Hunter" Rosalind, he is called a demon hunter. What he is hunting is not the demon Mages, but Demons."

"More than three Demons Grand Dukes died in his hands. Such Legendary is enough to fight Werewolves's Monarch and other Werewolf Clan Legendary chiefs."

"However, they have absolutely no control over the direction of the war."

No matter who it is, no one can kill the opponent. All Rosalind can do is to prevent Legendary's power from coming to the ordinary battlefield.

Knight Mulan looked at Ryan. Rosalind Legendary arrived. What would this Baron plan?

"Is Mu Lord Lan worried about Divine Bone Potion? I don't trust this Rosalind."

Ryan shook his head and laughed.

"I want to protect my Frozen Earth Territory, but obviously, this Lord Demon Hunter, he will not live in my Frozen Earth Territory."

"I will not give up here. If the price of Divine Bone Potion cannot stop Orcs, then I will pay more."

"Mu Lord Lan Do you believe me?"

Ryan's voice made Mulan feel a little dazed. He didn't know why Baron was so confident, but...

"Baron Ryan has never lost a battle, and I think this time will be no exception."

I myself am not so confident in myself, Ryan turned around and left. After all, the news from afar is as ethereal and illusory as the wind, and being down to earth is important.

The war is still going on, and the fortress defense lines in Mountain Forest are harassed by tens of thousands of Orcs every day. This is the key.

Ahead, there is a continuous Thorn Thicket, and among the Thorn Thicket, there is only one passage with a width of no more than ten meters. This passage is not the only direction for Orcs to come, but it is the place where the most powerful Orcs passes.

Rampaging Warbear is guarding the intersection. Behind them, there are still hundreds of meters of fortress defense line.

The fortress built by Ryan has not yet been engraved with magic formations, so those extraordinary Orc Warrior must leave the fortress to block it, otherwise the powerful Orc Warrior is fully capable of digging through those fortresses.

"Brothers, rush!"

Borgeld shouted, killing Werewolves who rushed out, and used Thorn Thicket on both sides to force Werewolves to be unable to approach on a large scale.

In those fortresses, the soldiers are the vanguard, and the civilians are the logistics, constantly thrusting weapons from the gaps to kill Orcs who are approaching from outside. The powerful knights charge on the battlefield. Their power makes Orcs fearful, but the advantage in numbers allows Orcs to drown the knights who make mistakes.

Every day, every hour, there is this scene. No one in Northwind Province knows about the tragic war that happened in Frozen Earth Territory.

But they held on tightly, preventing Orcs from crossing the fortress defense line on a large scale and appearing in the rear.

But obviously, there is always Orcs who is lucky enough not to come into contact with the front line and appears under Winter City.

Stag Legion is patrolling this city. Those scattered Orcs cannot pose a threat here, but the terraced fields outside the city and the farmers on the mountains are inevitably frightened.

Therefore, the knight's patrol range had to spread to the surrounding areas. As time went by, the number of Orcs increased, and Winter City as the center was undoubtedly another battlefield.

Frozen Earth Territory has more than 200,000 people.

At this moment, Frozen Earth Territory has at least 150,000 soldiers.

"We have already lost our hometown once, and this is our new hometown. For Ryan, we cannot fail. In order to survive, we have no reason to give up this land to the evil Orcs."

"We have faced many enemies, but only Northlands makes us despair."

"We will bury those damn Orcs in the wind and snow of Northlands!"

Bard can always touch people's hearts. When winter comes and amidst the first snowstorm, the voices of Bard give infinite strength to the people of Frozen Earth Territory.

War will shape heroes, and those dazzling figures on the battlefield gradually become heroes in the words of Bard people.

"The latest news, this is not a story, let us first express our deep condolences."

Bard clasped the stone on his chest with both hands, lowered his head, and was telling the glory of the dead, and then he opened his mouth to describe the war to the people around him.

"Just last night, when most of the soldiers had gone to sleep, Werewolves of the Earl Clan launched an attack. They shuttled through the quiet Mountain Forest like shadows in the dark night."

"We all know that Thorny Jungle named Nastrond, that thorny world that only the most agile warriors can cross. Obviously, the swift Earl Clan and Werewolves are such warriors."

"Thorny Jungle can't be an obstacle in front of them. Every Werewolves jumps on the sharp thorns. It's hard to imagine that their tall bodies will not fall when they step on the thorns that are only as long as our palms."

"They jump, they run. Trees cannot block Earl Werewolves's vision. Above the dense tree canopy, Earl's Werewolves can even use them to block the soldiers' eyes."

"In the middle of the night, on the battlefield where even the beautiful Lady Moon cannot illuminate, these Werewolves are like ghosts, approaching our army."

Bard Speaking of this, everyone around him became nervous, fearing that the next sentence would be Werewolves's claws tearing open the chest of the soldier, and the sharp fangs penetrated the throat, swallowing human blood.

"At this moment, Master Brandt Legion appeared."

"He stood alone in front of hundreds of the Earl Clan Werewolves. His pace supported by the stag allowed him to quickly approach Werewolves. The Knight's Greatsword in his hand was "Snow Dragon's Roar", Master Brock all said that the Knight's Greatsword in Master Brandt's hand is the best Knight's Greatsword he has forged besides the Legendary weapon."

"The sharp Knight's Greatsword cut through the dark shade and nailed Werewolves to the tree. The struggling Werewolves wanted to use his claws to tear off the armor on Master Brandt, but his strength became weaker and weaker."

"Master Brandt Legion killed Werewolves, but this was not the end, but the beginning. More Werewolves were angry and tore at Master Brandt. Bite, they turned into evil wolves with the same color as the wind and snow, and they also turned into humans, with their heads snarling ferociously. In the darkness, countless Werewolvess came from all directions to kill Master Brandt."

After Bard finished speaking, his face turned red and he swallowed his saliva. The people around him were even more excited.

"What happened later, what happened later!"

"Later, Master Brandt killed all those damn Werewolvess with a shield in one hand and Knight's Greatsword in the other. When Dawn arrived, only corpses were left around. The armor on Brandt's body was covered with blood, but not a drop was his own."

Some people in the crowd couldn't help but become more suspicious.

"But, how could Master Brandt appear there? He should be protecting Master Baron at Rhino Horn Mountain."

"Yes, that's right, Master Brandt is a noble knight. He abides by the honor and code of knights. He should guard Master Baron's mansion."

Bard glanced at the people around him and snorted coldly.

"How could you guys know that Lord Baron Ryan was on the battlefield last night?"

"In Lord Baron's words, he doesn't know if his people can muster the courage to resist the evil Orcs, but as a lord, he will take the lead and fight at the forefront."

"Baron-sama unexpectedly appeared on the battlefield in the dark night."

The people around were a little shocked. Although most of them had never experienced the rule of aristocrats, they knew very well that everything Frozen Earth Territory belonged to Ryan's wealth. As a result, Ryan actually appeared on the battlefield.

"We are not afraid of death. The people of Gam are not afraid of death."

Some people in the crowd were dissatisfied and shouted, wearing the fur of wild beasts and barking.

"That's right, the people of Gam are never afraid of death!"

Bard pushed away the crowd and walked towards the tavern. He still had a lot of things to do and he didn't want to get excited with these people.

"Master Brandt has become even more powerful. He actually killed more than two hundred Werewolves in the dark."

"The same goes for the Stag Legion. They are Lord Baron Ryan's earliest Knight Retainer. If my hands and feet weren't so thin at the time, I could have become Lord Baron Ryan's attendant like my brother."

"Yes, I received the blessing from Lord Baron at that time, but it was very simple, as long as I was strong. Unlike now, I still have to study, haha, those damn little bastards are always worried."

"It feels so good to drink hot water. Bring the rest of the hot water with you. I have to go."

"So soon, where are you going?"

The man in the tavern poured boiling water into Bard's kettle and watched Bard put on the deerskin hood on his head to block the wind and snow.

"I'm going to Zero Crossing City. It wasn't just Master Brandt who fought last night, but also Master Egil. But you also know that Master Egil is not liked by the people of Winter City. They once had a serious grudge."

"But the adventurers of Zero Crossing City admire the lonely Master Egil. They think Master Egil is a brave man."

"Will people from Zero Crossing City organize to fight against Orcs?"

"I don't know, that's not my mission. We just need to do our job well. I don't think it's possible for Orcs to plunder our land."

Zero Crossing City.

Northern Kingdom's Braveheart Guild, for the adventurers here, whether it is the first adventurer to eat crabs or the first mad wolf to form a team, Sack, they can only be regarded as one of the after-dinner conversations. They have never been able to find a dazzling adventurer, a person who may become a brave person.

But recently, people seem to have gathered their faith, and someone who thinks he might become a hero has appeared.

"The Egil knight brought his three White Wolfs and entered the Northern Lands, killing a large number of Orcss. At night, those Werewolves eyes can ignore the darkness, but in the dark night, Egil can slaughter those damn Werewolvess."

"Master Egil is so powerful. I have seen those heads of Werewolves, which are more terrifying than beasts and can easily kill ordinary people."

"This reminds me of Lord Ashen Knight that day. Unfortunately, I haven't seen Lord Ashen Knight for a long time. Maybe he just passed by Zero Crossing City."

People regret that the former knight who called himself Ash made them feel that the brave is not so far away, but now that so much time has passed, Ashen Knight has never come to Zero Crossing City for the second time.

But he is what people call the first adventurer.

Although he is not the first to record, people prefer the brave man who is the first to bring back the head of Orcs.

"Damn Orcs, you invaded Northwind Province again. Why am I not a knight? If I were a knight, I would definitely chop off the heads of all Orcs with a long sword!"

In the distance, Lynn·Haton is sitting on the second floor of a stone house, drinking a small drink. The fiery energy brought by the strong liquor, Dispel is brought by the coldness of the wind and snow falling from the sky.

Orcs went south and invaded human land. Fragrant Mountain Plains has a large number of Orcs, but for Zero Crossing Prefecture, they are more willing to focus on Frozen Earth Territory's war, because once Baron Ryan fails, the first Orcs here will be submerged is Zero Crossing Prefecture.

Of course the nobles clearly understand the difference between near and far, so they pay more attention to places with greater threats.

Many nobles are praying that Ryan can win, because this will not only save the noble territory of Zero Crossing Prefecture, but also free up their hands to direct the war of Fragrant Mountain Plains Fortress. They all believe that Baron Ryan can win the war there.

In the aristocratic territory, many young people are eager to build meritorious services and careers in this war environment. However, the nobles are afraid and have stopped their own heirs. Some nobles are even arranging for their eldest son to leave Northwind Province for South.

Family heritage is more important than anything else.

"No, no, father will never agree."

Haton Baronial Territory, as the eldest son of Baron Hatton, Lynn had the guts to not leave Northwind Province, but stayed in the safe Zero Crossing City.

In the past few days, he had heard a lot about Frozen Earth Territory's battle situation, especially when others compared himself with that Egil, he was most concerned.

"Egil, a name I have never heard of. Is there such a number one person under Baron Ryan?"

Lynn knew Brandt, and he believed that there was a gap in strength between himself and Brandt. That gap made people despair, and he could only comfort himself with the fact that he was the heir of a noble family.

But Egil, he had never heard of it before, but the story told by Bard would not be wrong. They would never tell stories that were not confirmed.

Those Bard who wear the Frozen Earth Territory badge have become a symbol of Northwind Province. Those who doubt them will be questioned, but the words of Bard will always be recognized.

Lynn is a little curious. He still has the war horse and armor that Baron Ryan gave him at home.

"Father will definitely not allow me to hunt Orcs."

Lynn knows very well that he has family responsibilities and cannot take risks.

But he was still moved.

"Maybe... I can also form a team."

"Yes!!!"

Lynn woke up in shock. He was also an adventurer and a brave man. Why couldn't he form an adventure group?

And who has an advantage over me?

In the evening of that day, many people in Zero Crossing City saw a majestic knight riding through the street and heading towards the Northern Kingdom's Braveheart Guild.

"It's Master Ashen Knight."

Standing outside the Northern Kingdom's Braveheart Guild, Lynn explained to people why he disappeared for a while.

"I am loyal to my lord and noble, faithfully practice the code of knights, and follow the glory of knights."

"But I also have a certain degree of freedom, and I have to be kind to the lord."

So, on that day, Ashen Adventurer Group registered, causing an uproar among Zero Crossing City.

Many people signed up enthusiastically, and a few of them even reached the physical strength of Apprentice Knight.

"Become a member of Ash, and I will help them obtain the qualifications to be promoted to knights!"

Lynn's words spread quickly within Zero Crossing City. Many people were surprised that a knight loyal to a noble would form an adventure group. This was the first time.

"To become a brave man is to kill the evil Orcs. Can't the knight kill Orcs?"

Ashen Knight's question made people laugh. The knight was the main force in dealing with Orcs.

But Ashen Knight's choice also made some knights in Zero Crossing City who came from afar couldn't help but think.

A new door seemed to open in front of them.

However, before that, the nobility was a threshold that they could not cross, and they did not know what kind of relationship Ashen Knight was with the lord he was loyal to, that he could achieve this step.

"Perhaps this adventure group was originally founded by nobles?"

The knights' eyes lit up.

Lynn still doesn't know what kind of feat he has done. He is immersed in power. This is a power different from that of a noble heir.

Baron The identity of the eldest son is something he is born with, and hereditary authority makes him boring.

But looking at the dozen members of the adventure group around him, he was overjoyed by the loyal support.

Yes, that's it, aristocrats have aristocratic ways.

"Ash..."

Lynn's eyes were filled with longing, and he could never forget the first large-scale war that Baron Ryan participated in. The Ash flying in the sky seemed to be everything to him.

That war determined the future of Northwind Province, and at that time, he was just the most ordinary member of it.

Historical records will have the name Hatton Family, but they will not describe the battle of Lynn·Haton.

Lynn wants to be a brave Legendary.

And how many people's dreams are buried in this war with Orcs?
