Chapter 178 Thunder Giant
From the time Ryan received the news to the time he rushed to the front line, the armies led by Earl Winter and Earl Solon began a frenzied attack on Earl Weiss.

They seemed to be trying to drive the other’s army out of their own county, and then the two earls’ armies simultaneously attacked Count Weiss’s army on the edge of Red Wing Plain.

If they could gather the forces of the two counties on the same battlefield, they would indeed have an absolute advantage.

However, Count Weiss also did not put up any resistance, allowing his army to retreat step by step back to the base camp in Red Wing Plain.

By the time Ryan’s army arrived at the front line, Earl Sauron had driven out all the enemies that entered Longshan County at the cost of more than a thousand deaths.

Along the way, Ryan could see stripped bodies dumped in the corners, with a foul stench.

“Burned.”

Ryan gave an order, allowing him and his army to avoid the pursuit war and arrive at the front line just in the time when the two sides had a brief end.

“My Lord Count.”

Ryan came to a huge mobile fortress. This fortress was a square military tent built of gray-red stones, with an area of ​​about 150 square meters. The twenty-eight wheels underneath left dents in the mud, and the surface was engraved with magical patterns. The mobile fortress was pulled by six ferocious one-horned rhinos, whose cracked skin keratin exuded a hot breath.

Each one is a peak second-level magical beast. Just standing there, their bodies nearly three meters high give people an oppressive aura.

Such a mobile fortress cannot be built without 30,000 to 50,000 gold coins.

Don’t underestimate thirty or fifty thousand gold coins. The income of an ordinary barony in ten years cannot reach this number.

This is now after the establishment of the Lordship system, when the baronies are larger and the population is larger.

“Baron Ryan, you came at the right time. We just won the war against Thundercloud County, and you are here.”

Before Count Sauron could open his mouth, someone next to him started making sarcastic remarks.

Ryan looked over and saw a man with inverted triangle eyes. In the aristocratic circle, such a face was not welcome.

Viscount Denton, Viscount of Longshan County, was also a local noble of the former North Wind Province who surrendered to the Empire.

Since they are not imperial nobles, this family’s experience of becoming noble is different from that of others. Their family bloodlines, generation after generation, are all sorcerers who are good at controlling wild beasts such as venomous snakes. According to the legend of Viscount Denton’s family, there is a 300-meter-long snake in their family territory, which is their patron saint.

In short, such nobles are not welcomed by the imperial aristocratic circle. They can only rely on Earl Sauron to ensure that their family does not fall into decline.

“Baron Ryan, you are indeed a little late. If it were your army, we wouldn’t have suffered so many casualties.”

The white-haired Count Sauron looked at Ryan and said, he was also a little dissatisfied.

Ryan spoke apologetically to Count Sauron.

“I encountered a lot of corpses on the road. I had to arrange for the soldiers to burn them. Otherwise, when the weather gets warmer in a few days, it would be bad if a plague broke out.”

“Ryan is a little confused. Why do we have time to strip the corpse as a trophy, but no time to clean up the body?”

Ryan’s words made Earl Solon a little unhappy, but as a great noble, his expression did not change. “Let’s not talk about this for now. Now the Weiss family has been forced to the Red Wing Plain by us. Earl Winter and I have discussed that tomorrow we will both launch an attack on Love Weiss at the same time. Ryan, what do you think of this war?”

What could Ryan think? He didn’t even know what the army on this battlefield looked like, and he didn’t know what tricks and trump cards these great nobles had.

“Since the Earl has made the decision, Ryan will of course follow the Earl’s will.”

……

Early the next morning, the mighty army of twenty to thirty thousand soldiers made every soldier and noble among them excited. No matter who they were, they had never seen such a spectacular scene.

The most important thing is that among these armies, at most only one-third of the slaves were temporary soldiers, and the rest were all semi-full-time regular troops.

Ryan led more than 3,000 people from Lingdu County to the west side of the army. From a distance, his army lineup was the best.

Because even the troops under Count Sauron could not stand upright when viewed from the side, and there was a wheat ear stuck on the top of each person’s head, which made them look very powerful and intimidating.

“This Frozen Baron is indeed a powerful military genius. He can actually transform the army into this.”

Looking at the soldiers over there who were silent and not shaking their heads, many nobles in Longshan County looked envious, wondering how great it would be if these were their own soldiers.

As if they could sense the gazes around them, thousands of soldiers behind Ryan subconsciously held their heads high and puffed out their chests. Even Baron Enzo beside him had a cool look on his face, like a general who was confident of what was going on.

Ryan smiled in his heart when he felt this scene. These soldiers still had their idol baggage at this time, but now that the battlefield was about to start, they were afraid that they would not be able to care about their face.

Thinking of this, his pupils turned red and shrank, as if they were about to turn into wheat spikes as he stared at the end of the Red Wing Plain in front of him. There, flags were flying, and the jet-black army of barbarians was releasing a strong energy and blood force, and the startled war horses were also neighing in a low voice.

The moment the thunder and mountain flag appeared, Ryan also saw the Thunder Giant whom he had longed to see.

You can see him from far away. Because he is so tall, with a huge body of more than 20 to 30 meters high, most of the city walls are just thresholds in front of him. He looks like a giant barbarian, with thick hair all over his face and chest, and animal skins scattered on vital parts of his body. The lightning that flashes frequently on the surface of his body is probably the reason why he cannot wear metal armor.

But in his hands, he held two ball-head hammers that were nearly ten meters long. Everyone who saw this scene couldn’t help swallowing, fearing that if the terrible weapon fell, the ground would be smashed into a hole.

The most important thing is that the opponent not only has extremely powerful physical damage, but also thunder magic damage. When a thunder comes down, you don’t know how to block it.

“Can the Dragonblood Warriors stop such a thunder giant?”

Ryan looked towards the red army in the center of the army. Each of them was a descendant of a knight bathed in dragon blood. They were naturally stronger than others. It was said that the armor and weapons they wore weighed up to 100 to 200 kilograms.

He shook his head. The Dragonblood Warrior Legion was just heavy armored infantry. Such an army could deal with smaller enemies, but they were absolutely restrained when facing monsters like the Thunder Giants, which had a guaranteed sanctuary as long as they reached adulthood.

Their mobility and defense make them the best toys in front of giants.

Therefore, the one who should deal with the giant should be Count Winter.

Ryan looked towards the southwest, and vaguely seemed to be able to feel a large amount of powerful energy and blood boiling there.
