The iron chain dragged on the ground, making a clattering sound.
Everyone looked up and saw Ulf standing on the top of the fortress, with long iron chains dragging upwards from below.
Vargas, Ange and Luther stood at the other end of the iron chain, pulling up the iron rod tied to the iron chain together.
There were bursts of harsh and clear sounds, and the iron rod rose up bit by bit.
The other Norse people either sat on piles of wood, or crossed their arms and looked up, but their faces were full of doubts, confusion, and sneers.
And when the iron rod rose and passed by Princess Rodritt's window, she hugged her youngest son tightly. The harsh and crisp sound of the chain pulling seemed like a terrible punishment. For this group of bloodthirsty and violent vigilantes, Kyoto, Princess Roderet completely felt fear and despair.
At this time, on the steps outside the fortress, Guzlen also raised his head with interest and looked at the actions of Ulf and others. He also wanted to know what Ulf wanted to do?
Ulf's hands held the cold iron chains tightly. In order to better pull him up to the top, he wrapped the iron chains around his palms and arms. His muscles bulged high, and a sore feeling spread all over Ulf. husband's arm.
The iron rod was dragged up to the top of the fortress by Ulf and others. Ulf tied the heavy short-handled war hammer on his waist to the top of the iron rod with a chain. After it was firmly tied, he erected the iron rod. .
There were dark clouds in the sky, as if they were low over everyone's heads. The moist and dull air meant that there was going to be a heavy rain. Ulf looked up at the cloudy sky.
"Ulf, what are you expecting?" Ange and others arrived at the top of the fortress. They looked at Ulf looking up to the sky like a sculpture and asked him curiously.
"I'm waiting for the arrival of the God of Thunder." Ulf raised the warhammer and iron rod in order to guide the thunder and lightning in the sky. To put it bluntly, he created a lightning rod.
However, the ancients must have never seen such a scene, and they did not understand the principle of lightning. If they saw the lightning in the sky striking the war hammer with their own eyes, they would definitely think that it was a miracle.
"Thor?" Vargas also looked up at the sky. He reached out and scratched the back of his head, with a look of confusion on his face. It seemed that there was no trace of Thor in the sky.
Although Ulf's face was calm and his blue eyes were staring at the sky, he had no confidence in his heart. After all, lightning strikes were not controlled by human will.
However, with good luck, lightning struck the war hammer in full view of everyone, artificially creating a Thor war hammer.
The rumble of thunder in the sky gradually approached from a distance, and the light of lightning was brewing deep in the clouds.
Ulf felt his heart clenched. He knew very well that the North warriors who were waiting to see his joke were watching him, waiting for him to make a mistake, and then provoke him in front of Guzlen, because he was the only one who supported him here. The only person is Guzlen.
The North soldiers in the castle also heard the rumbling thunder. They immediately stopped teasing and playing. Under the power of nature, even the cruel and cold North soldiers were afraid. meaning.
Ange couldn't help but show a look of surprise. She cast her gaze on Ulf, and was surprised in her heart. Could it be that Ulf could really summon the power of Thor, the God of Thunder?
Just when everyone was doubtful, the sound of thunder in the sky gradually became distant and began to move away from their heads. Even the lightning could not see any light.
"What's going on?" Vargas said in surprise. He looked at Ulf who was silent in confusion.
And Ulf's brows were furrowed, and his heart seemed empty. Could it be that he had miscalculated and the thunderstorm happened to miss this place? In that case, all his actions would become a farce. No one would believe him and would only think that he was. A madman who thinks he can make the gods send down their power and talk nonsense.
The dark clouds in the sky also began to disperse, and light fell loosely from the holes in the thick clouds. It seemed that the British Island finally had a sunny day.
Maybe this is good news for people who are tired of the rainy and gloomy weather here, but for Ulf it is definitely a bolt from the blue and bad news.
"It looks like Thor just drove by in his goat cart."
"Yes, it's a pity that I thought someone could really invite Thor to our banquet."
"Because we have a crazy person here."
"From now on, we'll just call him Ulf the Mad."
"Hahahaha~~~."
Ulf's failure became a laughing stock among the North warriors who had a grudge against him. They laughed at Ulf mercilessly and teased him unceremoniously.
Some people put eaten goat skulls on their heads in the open space and pretended to be crazy people, playing and teasing Ulf.
"Bastard, let me kill them." Vargas was so angry when he saw this scene that he picked up the ax in his hand and was about to kill those who laughed at Ulf.
But Ulf stretched out his hand to stop him. Any excuses and struggles now were in vain. He had not completed Guzlen's mission, and his reputation had been lost. It was normal for him to be laughed at and teased.
Ulf was even a little frustrated. He was preparing to lead his people to leave the castle and return to his temporary base in the Dutch lowlands. Without the holy weapon to fight against the crow flag, Gutzlen's army would not be able to defeat the army of Sheriff Oda.
When Ulf and others came down from the top of the fortress, the three North warriors who had been severely beaten by Ulf in the lord's kitchen led others on both sides of the street. They sneered and stared at Ulf and his group, absolutely It was impossible to miss such a good opportunity to humiliate and weaken Ulf's authority.
"fraud."
"Pooh."
Curses against Ulf and others were heard endlessly, and some people spat in front of them, as if they were the lowest slaves.
Under the public outrage, even Vargas could only bury his anger deep in his heart.
They looked at Ulf, who was standing at the front, but the lord said nothing. He almost bore the wrath of the other Norsemen alone, and when he turned his eyes away from the steps, he happened to see Guzrun. The look of disappointment, the humiliation that was like a knife, could only be tasted by Ulf alone.
At this moment, the sky became dark again.
"Boom~."
A thunder exploded over the castle.
The bright lightning illuminated the entire castle, and people could see each other's faces clearly even without torches.
Fear, confusion and surprise appeared on everyone's faces at the same time.
"Gods above, what happened?"
When everyone raised their heads and looked at the top of the castle, they saw a shocking scene.
