One hundred and eighteenth section triumphant return
Prescott is a free man from Harland, the territory of the Denmark King. The so-called free man is the Vikings who own their own farming land. He is in the middle of the Viking society. In contrast, the squire among the Germans. The Viking warship he is located on the left side of the pursuit of the Unicorn. Like the others, they are desperately chasing the Unicorn. Prescott's leader is a strong Viking warrior. The leader wears a nose-protecting iron helmet, a coat made of wolf leather armor, and a battle axe in his hand.
"Come on, we'll catch up, don't let others take the lead." The leader of Prescott shouted in a rough voice. Everyone knew the meaning of being able to take this ship. The leader of each ship wanted to become the one who captured the Earl of Mecklenburg, which not only would make them more respected in front of the King of Denmark, but would also obtain a lot of land or money.
"Captain, why do those Mecklenburgers light torches at the stern of the boat?" Seeing an iron rack being extended out of the stern of the Unicorn where the Earl of Mecklenburg was located, and a fireball was lit on the iron rack, the Vikings felt very strange. If they wanted to burn their fire, it would be too insufficient. It was like lighting up their targets in the mist. But at this moment, Prescott, who was standing behind the leader, felt an indescribable wave of heat coming towards him.
"Ah~~~." Prescott felt a light in front of him. He couldn't help but block the round shield hanging on his left hand in front of him, and closed his eyes with conditioned reflex. But when he opened his eyes again, he found that everything in front of him had changed. The flames in front of him soared into the sky. The Viking ship he was in was burning, and the flames were rising on their heads. The other Viking warriors tried to extinguish the flames on the heads by slapping with linen or fur coats, but this not only did not extinguish the flames on the heads, but instead made them burn.
"Odin, oh~~~." Prescott looked at the scene in front of him, a sense of fear that had never been seen before spreading in his heart. As a Viking warrior with his own land, he was always fearless. When he was very young, his father took him to see the beheaded criminals in person. Since then, Prescott has never been afraid of anything, but today he is afraid, the flames surrounding him. The companions jumped into the sea with howlings. The cold and bone-blooded sea water immersed in the body immediately caused the burning Viking warriors to be heartbroken. However, even if their bodies were surrounded by sea water, the flames were still not extinguished. Humans were grilled by the flames and the smell of meat that spread. This made many survivors vomit when they saw the barbecue for a long time.
"Puchi~~~." Prescott didn't even think about it, throwing away all his equipment and jumping into the sea, trying his best to leave this hellish scene. In order to avoid the flames and the overturned warships, he took a deep breath and sneaked into the cold and bone-breathing sea. Fortunately, the area he lived in was the land on the coast, and in order to train himself, his father often took him to swim in the bone-breathing sea.
"Woo~~~." But even so, Prescott could not dive under the sea for too long. He floated up from the sea, hoping that he could find his companionship ship that had not been attacked by the flames. But he was disappointed to see the Danish king's fleet leaving them and running away alone. Only the roars of the Viking warriors struggling in despair were in his ears, and the burning corpses floated past him like torches.
"Wow, wow." At this moment, the armed merchant ship of the Unicorn, which they were chasing, sailed towards them with the sound of paddlings, and the Unicorn carefully avoided the burning areas.
"Help, save me." At this time, the exhausted Prescott stretched out his hand to the original enemy without thinking. He held a trace of hope that these enemies could rescue him. Although he was actually desperate, a miracle finally appeared. Wood pulp stretched out from the Unicorn. Prescott grabbed the wooden pulp without thinking, and then put down a soft ladder made of linen rope from the ship.
"How many people have been rescued in total?" Aruod looked at the Vikings who were like chickens. In order to prevent them from being frozen to death, the wet fur coats on their bodies were taken off and thrown aside. The naked Vikings curled up on the deck and each lost their murderous appearance.
"Let me count, huh, twenty-four Viking warriors, oh, one of them just died, throw the body down, twenty-three." Yifu said to Arod after counting.
"Twenty-three." Aroud nodded, walked up to these prisoners with great enthusiasm, and said loudly to them, "Sad Danes, your king has abandoned you, and your god Odin has abandoned you, and Thor is on my side."
When Aroud was with the shield girl Grace, he not only asked Grace to learn Germanic language, but also worked hard to learn Viking language. However, when he spoke to these Viking prisoners, not only the Viking warriors were extremely surprised, but even Ifu and others were surprised.
"Thor Thor?" The Viking warriors couldn't help but look at the nobleman in front of him who was wearing armor and shirt, young face but surrounded by a group of knights. He actually spoke their language. Moreover, Thor Thor was extremely worshipped among the Viking warriors. If the Lord of the Gods Odin is the supreme god, then Thor Thor is the patron saint of the Viking warriors, and for them, he is the closest god.
"That's right, weren't you defeated by Thor's weapons?" Arod continued. He knew the power of his flamethrower, so he decided to use the mythological system of the Vikings to become a charlatan. If other ethnic groups in the Middle Ages believed in the Vikings to be only pagans, the Vikings' mythological system was gradually discovered through missionaries later, but Arod was not a person of this era. His soul came from the 21st century. Any TV network could know the mythological beliefs of the Vikings, not to mention the European and American fanaticism about Vikings culture, and various Hollywood blockbusters could make Arod understand the Vikings' beliefs.
"Is it Thor's power?" The Vikings were puzzled. They looked at each other at their companions, recalling the terrifying lightning-like flames in their minds, just like the sparks emitted by Thor Thor knocking on the iron felt with a hammer when the storm came.
Suspicion planted seeds in the hearts of the Viking warriors. Looking at the captives with fearful eyes with satisfaction, Aroud ordered the armed merchant ship of the Unicorn to return, while the remaining Viking fleet led by the Denmark retreated to the island of Zeland to hide temporarily. The fear of the unknown Mecklenburgers' weapons made the brave and cunning king fearful, but since he had already summoned the vassals to deal with Mecklenburg, he would never retreat because of this. The Denmark would act cautiously before finding a complete solution.
"We must find a real hermit to ask the will of the gods. We must not act rashly before this." The King of Denmark said to his vassals, and the Vikings nodded, and the scene of burning on the sea left a deep impression on them. The Vikings had a tradition of being hermits, who were usually disabled or intelligent and unique people. The Vikings believed that these people had supernatural powers and could communicate with gods. They usually lived in caves or woods far away from people, and lived in strange and unique customs.
When the Danes curled up their islands and territory, the people at the Mecklenburg port welcomed Arod and others with warm cheers. At the beginning of the naval battle, people found a higher cliff to watch the Mecklenburg armed merchant ships and Viking warships. Although the Mecklenburg armed merchant ships attacked the Viking warships with crossbows and poles, they were soon attacked violently. The armed merchant ships were defeated, and finally, they were in a state of Arod.
The flagship was also retreating. The people in Mecklenburg were frightened at the time. Some timid people had already begun to escape from the port, but unexpectedly, the flagship led by Arod used flamethrowers to burn the Viking warships' warships in the waters outside Rostock County. The remaining Viking warships' bows dared not return to their territory. Arod's flagship Unicorn took a group of captured Viking warriors and returned triumphantly.
"Haha, the people here are so enthusiastic." When Yifu walked off the Unicorn, the enthusiastic fishermen and girls rushed over, hugged his face and kissed them hard. The merchants at the port tried their best to stuff their goods to the warriors who were disembarking. The fishermen and women were crucificing their crosses on their chests, thanking God for giving them victory and repeling the devilish Viking warriors.
