The once worn and cracked horn and the brass covered in a layer of green copper filth flashed with dark red and icy blue runes in the hands of the King of Strange Ghosts. It was sacred and majestic, filled with a sense of power that suppressed one's soul.
This was the real Horn of Winter!
Legend had it that it could awaken the underground giants and cause the Great Wall to collapse, the "Horn of Joman."
Back then, Mance Ryder had turned into Boss Cao and led a group of tomb raiders along the Frost Tooth (the mountain with the best feng shui outside the Great Wall), but they had never found Joman's tomb.
Perhaps it was because he lacked Hu Bayi's skills and the young man's rich "archaeological knowledge," but even after opening Joman's tomb, Mance Ryder was unable to identify the bones.
In the end, Mance found a mighty and domineering "Horn of Giants" from the tomb of the Giant King.
Although the Horn of Giants was domineering, it was superficial.
When the savages were negotiating with the Dragon Queen, Mance had used the horn to threaten her. "We savages also have a trump card. Don't push me too far, or I'll blow down the Great Wall and perish with you Southerners!"
The Dragon Queen crossed her arms and raised her chin slightly. Her eyes were full of sarcasm as she sneered. "If you have the guts, then I'll stand here and let you brag. Let's see if you can blow down the Great Wall!"
Mance withered.
Later, when Danny was about to subdue more than 100,000 savages outside the Great Wall, Erlu suddenly appeared and led a thousand cavalrymen to pick her peaches.
The huge horn also became Melisandre's trophy. Then, she burned it and offered it to Lahlo.
The Horn of Winter was a "mythical item" that rarely appeared in the legends of the Northern Region. It was only circulated among the savages outside the Great Wall.
Well, the savages outside the Great Wall had always believed in its existence. Otherwise, Mance Ryder would not have spent so much effort to find it.
But south of the Great Wall, even the Northerners did not believe that a horn could blow down the Great Wall.
So, from the beginning to the end, Danny did not take the Horn of Winter to heart.
It would be wrong to say that Danny was misled by the fact that the Horn of Winter did not collapse the Great Wall at the end of "Game of Thrones".
She had witnessed the entire process of Brandon's construction of the Great Wall from the beginning to the end. No one had ever left a back door in the Great Wall's spell formation. The Horn of Winter had never appeared.
Even Brandon, the "city builder", did not leave any backup plan. How could the barbarians beyond the Great Wall have the Horn of Winter?
Danny was not the only one who did not care about the Horn of Winter. Jon, Melisandre, Perestan, the history professor, and even all the night watchers on the Great Wall did not think that a horn could blow down the Great Wall.
But now, they were collectively slapped in the face. The bugle horn had appeared.
Uh, it appeared a few years ago, but unfortunately, no one blew it. Or rather, it didn't fall into the hands of the Dragon Queen or Melisandre.
The person who was capable of discovering its peculiarity had never seen it before, and the person who had been holding it was a Muggle, incapable of identifying its peculiarity.
.....
Putting away the horn, King of Strange Ghosts waved his hand at the huge gap in the Great Wall.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz …"
The densely packed army of ghouls was like the clone army in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones: a huge army phalanx. Without saying a word, Silence charged forward quickly.
It was as if an Ocean of Silence had appeared north of the Great Wall. The gray waves surged over the tall mounds left behind by the collapsed Great Wall.
It was also as if God had poured a bottle of gray ink mixed with light blue dots from the sky. The ink spread out on the ice and snow of the Northern Region at a terrifying speed.
The small fishing village behind the East Sea was the first Westeros village to be drowned by the tide of ghouls.
The lights were extinguished in the thick white cold fog. Before the dying screams of men, women, the elderly, and children could dissipate in the dark storm, they opened their eyes that emitted blue light and became part of the ghouls army.
"How did this happen? How did this happen? How did the Great Wall collapse …" Ulma was drenched. His wrinkled old face was blue from the cold. He knelt on the deck of the longship and muttered absentmindedly.
The waves caused by the glaciers and boulders on the Great Wall slid into the sea gradually subsided. The Seal Bay Fleet also fished out a dozen Men in Black brothers from the cold sea. Ulma was one of them.
When the cracks first appeared on the Great Wall, Ulma, who had 30 years of experience as a ranger, sensed the danger.
Just like the countless dangers he encountered in the Haunted Forest, he immediately found a way to survive. He ran east and jumped into Seal Bay.
Not only did he jump, but he also shouted for all the Night Watchers to jump with him.
I jump, you jump!
Indeed, many people jumped. However, when they jumped blindly, they completely forgot that they were wearing heavy steel armor.
When a lump of metal fell into the sea, the result was predictable.
Yes, it was worse than Jack and Shredded Meat.
"Sob sob sob, Jamie, Jamie, don't die, sob sob …" Beside Ulma, the tall youth Tom hugged his companion and sobbed.
Skinny Jamie and Tall Tom did not have the right to wear steel armor. They only wore the Night Watchers' standard woolen sweaters and leather armor. They were lucky enough to escape the disaster.
However, Skinny Jamie was unlucky. When he surfaced, his head was accidentally crushed by a block of ice the size of a door. He sank into the sea at once.
When Tom found him and dragged him onto the deck of the longship, Skinny Jamie was already on his last breath.
"Sister, my sister …" Skinny Jamie murmured mournfully. His eyes gradually dimmed.
"Sob sob, your sister is my sister. As long as I'm alive, I'll send all my salary to your sister, except for the money to go to Mole Village," Tall Tom said as he sobbed.
"Thank you …" The divine light in Skinny Jamie's eyes was extinguished. Then, it shone brightly. His eyes were brighter than when he was alive.
"Jamie?" Tom touched his companion's face and asked in confusion, "Why did your black eyes turn blue?"
"Blue?" Beside him, Ulma felt a chill run down his spine. He was jolted awake from his daze. "Be careful …"
"Awoo …" But his warning was still too late. Skinny Jamie seemed to have awakened the strength of King Kong. He suddenly reached out and grabbed Tom's right hand that was caressing his face. Then, he sat up straight. Under Tom's confused gaze, he opened his mouth and bit down on his throat at lightning speed.
"Psst psst psst …" Warm blood sprayed all over Skinny Jamie's face. He did not care. He sucked the blood in big mouthfuls. He tore his throat muscles and chewed hard …
"What are you doing?" Tom's face was pale as if it was covered in lime powder. He leaned his chin weakly on Skinny Jamie's shoulder and murmured in confusion.
The divine light in his eyes gradually dimmed. Then …
"Clang!" Skinny Jamie pushed his companion away. His eyes that were emitting blue light looked at Ulma.
He stopped nibbling on Tom because Tom had become his companion again.
"Slash …" Before Tom and Jamie pounced on Ulma, a black thunderbolt suddenly flashed past.
Then, the heads of the two dead people were torn from their necks. Their headless corpses fell to the ground and did not move anymore.
"Screw the Deviant Ghost King's ass!" A muscular man in black armor with a shark's emblem on his chest walked over from behind Tom and Jamie while waving his blood-stained Dragontooth Blade. He laughed loudly and said, "We have finally confirmed a piece of good news. The Dragontooth Blade invented by Dragon Queen is indeed very effective."
This was the longship of the East Sea Watch Navy.
Ulma, Tom and Jamie were not the only ones on the warship. It was already an accident that Jamie attacked Tom and bit him to death. The Night Watchers on the warship could not just stand there and watch the Zombie Ghost bite Ulma to death.
As for this muscular man with a shark's emblem …
He came from the Three Sisters Archipelago. He was the current head of the Tottern Family on the Little Lady Island, Count Alexander.
After the Dragon Queen launched the "United Front Against Ghosts", the Night Watchers of the Great Wall could be said to be filled with Knights and Counts.
Like Count Roland who had sunk into the sea, Count Alexander took the initiative to pass his title to his eldest son. He brought his warhorse, armor, rations, military equipment and other resources to the Great Wall. He donned a black robe and became a glorious Night Watcher.
"It's over. It's all over." Ulma shook his head and sighed. "So what if the Dragonteeth Dagger is effective against Deviant Ghosts?
Now that the Great Wall has collapsed, Deviant Ghosts are flooding into the Northern Territory. The Northern Territory is finished. The Seven Kingdoms are finished. "
Count Alexander held the hilt of his dagger and stared at the endless Zombie Tide that passed through the Great Wall's defensive line. He smiled bitterly and sighed. "The collapse of the Great Wall is not something we can handle. Quickly go to Dragonstone Island and invite the Dragon Queen!"
"Dragon Queen …" Ulma's dim eyes gradually brightened.
Uh, not Zombie Ghost. It was the Light of Hope.
"Yes, quickly go to Dragonstone Island and invite the Dragon Queen! She will definitely be able to turn the tide, "he said loudly.
"There's also the Child of Prophecy," a sailor behind Count Alexander reminded softly. "We have two saviors!"
"Saviors …" Ulma's white beard trembled a few times.
"Stannis and Jon Stark must be notified. I only hope that they can really be of some use," he said with uncertainty.
"Merciful Mother of God, quickly, quickly retreat. The sea is starting to freeze!" A sailor on the longship ahead shouted in fear.
"Boom — boom, boom — boom!" Then, there was the sound of the catapults on the ship throwing oil cans. The oil cans fell and exploded into balls of strange green flames on the sea surface.
When Dragonstone Island transported Dragon Crystals to the Great Wall, they had also sent over a dozen alchemists. They had created many Wildfire Bullets with Tyrion oil for the Night Watchers.
Danny was worried that the Deviant Ghosts would use ice chisel ships to cross the bay. The Wildfire Bullets were specially prepared for the navy.
On the frozen sea surface, the green flames could also burn. While melting the thin layer of ice, it also lit up the surroundings for the sailors behind.
Thick, white, frozen fog poured in through the gap in the Great Wall and spread toward the south and the sea surface in the east. The once turbulent, dark seawater became as quiet as a virgin in the frozen fog.
A layer of grayish-white frost condensed on the surface of the dark seawater. The thin layer of frost solidified into deep, milky-white ice in the frozen fog.
It was as if an ice queen named Elsa was slowly walking over. The sea was frozen in front of everyone's eyes.
"Quickly retreat! The Deviant Ghosts are coming over on the ice!" Count Alexander shouted in fear.
All the rowers got into position and paddled with all their might to avoid the thick ice that was spreading toward them. At the same time, Wildfire Cans were thrown out from the deck to burn the frozen sea surface and stop the army of corpses that had no fear or pain.
However, the speed at which the ice was spreading seemed to be faster than the rowers.
It was also their fault for getting too close to the shore in order to save people.
"Splash — Rumble!" Something strange happened again. A rumbling tsunami swept up from the depths of the ocean behind them and attacked the shore.
Then, a crazy ballad came from the cabin. "Under the sea, the mermaids drink starfish soup, and the servants are all crabs. I know, I know, oh oh oh ~ ~ ~"
"Patchface?" Ulma was shocked.
