Gwen's resolute figure stood in front of Victor, and her dancing silver hair looked even more grim in the wind and snow.
At this moment, in front of her were thousands or even tens of thousands of barbarians.
In a place in the far north, a tribe with extremely scarce resources and a tribe that could only survive by hunting could actually generate so much effective combat power.
Angus has been in the north for nearly thirty years. These thirty years have been the most prosperous period for the northern barbarians.
Gwen didn't even need to dwell on it.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that her father and brother had sinned more deeply.
It was their laissez-faire that led to the wanton proliferation of barbarians.
She had a lot to say to Victor behind her.
But at this moment, there was no time for her to continue thinking.
Barbarians have no more ideas.
The instant death of the first berserker only made them feel a little timid, followed by extremely violent anger.
The endless anger made the fierce flames wrapped around them even stronger, as if everything around them would be completely swallowed up in the flames in the next second.
They roared crazily, like red demons coming out of hell under the gloomy sky.
Within a few seconds, all the barbarians rushed forward like crazy.
The roar shook the heaven and the earth, stretching thousands of miles.
This piece of ice seems to be unable to support this extremely terrifying weight, sinking and floating towards the ice ocean.
The snow was flying hundreds of meters, and the ice was constantly shaking.
There was only one last thought in the barbarian's mind.
That is,
war.
They believe in war,
When the survival of the barbarians is threatened, they can even unite to the point of uniting against the outside world.
Any location with more abundant resources will become their hunting ground.
"Ooooooo!"
Carrying roars that echoed in all directions, the barbarians brandished countless weapons and attacked Gwen.
Every barbarian is like a born warrior, they have no awareness of pulling or long-range consumption.
There is only this instinctive desire to fight.
After all, this is a tribe where even a ten-year-old child can fight.
When countless barbarians rushed forward, Gwen did not make any unnecessary moves.
She just maintained her sword-holding posture, protecting Victor from the beginning to the end.
As if waiting for something.
finally……
A deep voice gradually sounded.
Everything under the sky was instantly covered with countless magic energy formations, and thousands of magic formations flashed out of thin air.
As huge magic formations rose up, thousands of magic lines began to intertwine with each other between the formations.
The countless formations merged into one, as if they had a common will and flashed in response.
Endless totems suddenly appeared from between the formations, as if the snowfield that had been silent for many years suddenly burst into real anger.
Magic energy of various attributes filled the vast and empty snowfield, covering the entire world in an instant.
Several fireballs burst out from between the red formations, tearing through the dry air.
Along with the jet of flames, the lush wood branches turned into sharp thorns and attacked the barbarians.
The two instantly combined to form countless fire rains that filled the sky, piercing the boundless ice ocean.
The purple thunder and white storm turned into giant dragons. The violent impact and shattering penetrated the ground under the feet of the barbarians and pierced their strong chests.
The hot blood seemed to follow the lightning and was constantly stirring in the space, gradually splashing on the white snowfield, dyeing a huge area red.
The rumbling sound was like the roar of a giant beast, pouring out all kinds of hatred and anger.
Endless magic bombarded the barbarians indiscriminately, and those flesh and blood bodies were shattered like fragile glass under the fierce offensive.
Vladimir stood on the snow cliff not far away, looking at the scenery in front of him, smiling constantly.
Behind him were countless mages wearing white robes.
They chanted magic, and countless exquisite and complex formations were constantly building links in their hands, which were reflected in the sky not far away.
Vladimir carried the ice ax and laughed twice.
"I have never felt as good as today!"
"Blow me up, blow up those bastards for me!"
With his order, the magic instantly became more intensive and violent.
It looks like fireworks of various colors blooming under the long night sky, celebrating the coming of dawn.
The poor barbarians were bombarded with violent magic and were reduced to pieces, running away with their heads in their hands.
If it were on flat ground, the barbarians would basically massacre the mages unilaterally.
The mages were helpless against the rampaging barbarians.
Compared to their physical strength, they were naturally no match for this group of barbarians.
But now, the terrain here is simply unique for the mages.
The Far North Icefield is surrounded by mountains. If you want to leave, there is only an extremely narrow mountain road.
With such a perfect venue, the barbarians could only be forced to endure the attacks from the mages on the snowfield.
Erica was naturally not idle either, constantly releasing all kinds of magic in her hands.
As a second-level mage, he is now familiar with the second-level magic he learned before.
It only takes a few seconds for those formations and lines to be drawn.
Relying on the powerful divine power of wood in her body, her various magics are extremely terrifyingly sharp and continuous.
Groups of flames turned into high-speed arrows and quickly attacked the barbarians above the narrow area.
Stab into their heads with precision.
Kill with one blow!
The mages are constantly stacking various buffs on each other, and countless spells are emerging one after another.
A single mage may not even be able to defeat an ordinary warrior.
However, when the mages gather together, the huge benefits formed by mutual enhancement can burst out with extremely terrifying power!
It is not impossible to destroy mountains and fill up deep seas!
The magic that fills the sky is constantly bombarding the world, and the sky seems to have become colorless under this terrifying magic.
After being baptized by various colors, the snowfield is filled with smoke and dust, and there is no business.
Even the air is filled with the smell of blood.
Victor looked at the spectacular scene in front of him without any disturbance in his heart.
Vega felt a sense of surprise. He squinted his eyes, and only the sound that Victor could hear gradually sounded.
"Have you ever thought that one day, there will be so many people coming to help you?"
Victor had no expression on his face and just responded to it lightly.
"There's only one possibility, they're not helping me."
The endless anger spread among these mages, and Victor knew it very well.
"The hatred has accumulated for too long, so they only need a simple trigger."
"Now, their anger is fueled."
The pleasure of endless killing filled the hearts of those mages, and they vented all their anger on these barbarians.
There is a reason for this.
The Pale Sorcerers' Society, Victor knew about this organization.
In the game, it belongs to the Northern Territory of the Empire.
This is a force formed by a general of the empire who is about to retire.
They have no official nature, they are just organizations established by people to fight against barbarians.
Those who join the Pale Magic Guild are more or less related to the barbarians.
In the beginning, they were ordinary people living in the northernmost part of the empire.
If there is peace in the territory ruled by the Northern Knights, then in this Northern Territory.
The humans living here are experiencing disasters from 'evil beasts' all the time.
Relatives and friends died tragically, and families were destroyed.
It's almost the most common thing here.
But all this shouldn't have happened.
The steel fortress made by the northern knights did not protect this group of people near the far north.
Instead, they were isolated from the outside.
The knights are not responsible for anything outside the fortress.
Even if the barbarians appear in front of the fortress, the northern knights only need to consider whether they will attack the castle and penetrate deeper.
The sky is high and the emperor is far away, but there are always a lot of casualties every year.
Those who died in the north would not arouse the emperor's surprise when news reached the royal capital.
Instead, under the governance of Angus.
The North has indeed been stable for many years.
That's right...
The lives of a few people are exchanged for the peace and stability of the vast majority of people.
This is Angus's strategy.
After the emperor denied his justice, he understood what he wanted.
Therefore, after coming to the north, he was no longer as righteous as before.
Eventually, the Pale Magic Order was forced to be established.
Vladimir Lebedev.
This accomplished general could have returned to the royal capital and enjoyed his own glory and wealth.
But with a strong sense of justice, he could no longer endure the desperate deaths of his compatriots around him one after another.
In the end, he stayed in the north, taking in these ordinary people whose families were destroyed by the barbarians, and trying his best to teach them the power to protect themselves.
Like a leader, leading this group of people with endless hatred.
Fight against these dangerous barbarians.
Looking at the barbarians who suffered heavy casualties in front of them, as well as the mages who had accumulated an unknown amount of hatred.
Victor's face was expressionless, but in his heart he just wanted to laugh.
"One is a believer who worships the goddess of justice, but only has interests and calculations in his heart."
"One is an old man who doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, but he is always full of passion, just to save more people."
"After all, who is the real justice?"
At this point, he looked at Gwen again, standing in front of her.
The wind and snow after this battle became more violent, and it was difficult to tell whether it was just heavy snow or smoke that obscured the eyes.
Under the constant bombardment of magic, air waves rushed in one after another.
But Gwen was still standing in front of him.
At this moment, what motivated this kind-hearted knight of justice to stand in front of him and protect him?
I don't know how long it took, but the poor barbarians have been bombarded by endless magic for a long time.
They tried to escape through the narrow mountain road, but countless magicians blocked it there, even using their own lives as huge rocks to block the way, blocking the barbarians' final way.
Even if they want to force a breakthrough, each wave of magicians who quickly fill up makes them feel extremely troublesome.
As if they were more fearless than the barbarians like them, they kept attacking the front line.
Even if his body is shattered to pieces and his limbs are severed, he is not afraid of that humble death at all.
Just to let all these barbarians end here.
Under the absolute predicament, those barbarians were completely desperate.
They never thought that one day, these mages would come out like they did today.
These fragile and despicable mages stood on the towering mountain wall, leaving them, a group of warriors who were not afraid of death, no possibility of counterattack.
Damn, damn it!
The barbarians seemed to have made some decision.
Two red and blue rays of light suddenly lit up among the remaining barbarian crowd.
Like wisps of conscious light, heading deep into the sky.
As if something came out of thin air, suddenly, the ultimate terrifying aura descended.
Fire and frost fell from the sky at the same time, causing air waves a hundred meters high.
As the fiery red color gradually faded, the huge body came into view of everyone present.
It was a giant as tall as a mountain. It held a huge blade that was constantly burning with flames in its hand, and stared at countless mages with red and angry eyes.
On the other side of the ice sheet, a huge blue claw suddenly stretched out from under the earth and tore off the top of a snow-capped mountain.
The blue ice giant slowly stood up, his hands carrying extremely terrifying and sharp claws, and the ice shone incomparably under the firelight.
Looking at the two extremely terrifying giants in front of them, the expressions of countless mages suddenly changed.
"That's the legendary giant... the flaming sword, Levadin?"
"And the Claw of Perfect Ice... Skati."
"Don't they only appear in legends?"
The legendary demigod giant is the religious follower of the barbarians.
And this faith is also the power that can protect them.
When the collective survival of the barbarians is threatened, the giant known as the "demigod" will appear in front of them and eliminate all threats for them.
But no one has ever actually seen a giant.
Everyone only regards them as a legend.
However, only the barbarians themselves know this clearly.
Demigods have always existed.
The flames and frost blended together, bursting out with extremely terrifying power at this moment.
Vladimir's face looked a little more serious. Even he, facing such power, couldn't help but be forced to retreat a little.
In the blink of an eye, strong winds and blizzards roared again.
Gwen endured the cold storm and looked up at the two giants that suddenly appeared in front of her, feeling dazed.
She was closest to the two giants and could feel the pressure coming from them even more.
But……
The justice in her heart supported her.
She wanted to move forward, to protect the group of mages.
This is the duty of a knight.
But suddenly, a hand climbed onto her shoulder and pulled her back.
Gwen couldn't even resist. When she came to her senses, she had been pulled into Victor's arms.
"dimension……"
"do not move."
Victor looked at the two towering giants, his voice mixed with white air and sounded faintly.
"I don't want you to die."
Gwen was a little dissatisfied.
As a knight, her mission is to protect others.
But Victor just said calmly.
"The person you need to protect now is me."
"Remember, I am also a mage."
"..."
Gwen was silent for a while. Subconsciously, she actually thought that what Victor said made some sense.
Can……
She suddenly realized that her back was leaning against Victor's arms, and Victor's voice came from directly above.
She only had to raise her head slightly to see Victor's face.
This subtle gesture always made her feel strange and unnatural.
But before she could speak, Victor's voice sounded in the sky filled with ice and flames.
"Lightton."
"Don't just eat and do nothing."
The words just fell, in the blink of an eye.
The sky became dark and dim.
Even the power of the two giants dimmed a bit.
It seems that something extremely terrifying is about to appear.
Above the layers of darkness in the sky, it was suddenly dyed red.
Suddenly, a huge claw with countless sharp steel thorns ripped open the sky in an instant.
It revealed a huge eyeball, looking straight at the world.
Red mist gradually gathered from around the ice field, stopping the constantly blowing wind and snow.
Countless people stared at the sky in shock.
That terrifying and violent scene appeared naked in front of everyone.
The huge bright red crocodile slowly poked its body out from the narrow space.
The surrounding storm was rolling again, but this time it was no longer snow.
Instead, they turned into sharp steel fragments.
Even the two giants slowly raised their heads and looked at the even larger existence that appeared in the sky.
The extremely angry sound is as boring and scary as a bell or a rift drum.
But no one could resist, they could only watch quietly as the absolute devil stated:
"destroy."
"It's coming——"
