Chapter 373 7.27 "Porcupine" Gwen Harold

Alfred walked into Rolf Battle Academy alone, and walked out of it, followed by a troop of nearly 500 people.

Among them, the huge carriage pulled by 8 horses was very conspicuous.

Encountering the "Ancient God" that is rarely seen in a hundred years, Odin's people will not feel the slightest fear. Some are just as excited as if they have found a rare treasure.

Rolf is a chosen one under the "Frost Giant Path". He has been stuck in Sequence 4 "Frost Conqueror" for a long time, and the potion to promote to Sequence 3 "Frost Lord" is too cumbersome.

He has entered Asgard twice, but he has not been able to collect them.

If he can be promoted by killing the evil god this time, it will be a blessing from heaven.

For the principal of the War Academy who makes a living by fighting, he will not refuse this precious adventure.

It is not enough to have just this troop.

After a brief conversation with Rolf, a group of people ran towards the seaside under the stars.

Gowen and Harold are two very special Viking pirates.

Gowen was born in Blood Pigeon Town and is an authentic Viking seaman. However, compared with others, he is short and not very strong. The only thing that King Odin gave him was a brain that was much smarter than others.

However, the "brain" is of limited use to a Viking civilian.

Whether it is sea raiding or hunting in the mountains, every trip of Gowen is thrilling and stretched.

Finally, when he was 16 years old, he was ambushed by several Slavic men in the Warsaw Province on the east coast of the Baltic Sea. After they caught him, they mercilessly mocked this short Viking who was only 5 meters tall.

They broke his spine, making him unable to walk upright forever.

Then they threw him to the bottom of the snowy mountain, waiting to feed the hungry wolves when night fell.

But Gowen is a man who will not succumb to fate. Although his legs were disabled, he gritted his teeth and used his hands to dig through the cold frozen soil, crawling from the cold coniferous forest into the flowing hot spring river.

The cold river water carried him downstream and returned to the coastline where the Viking longship was docked.

Relying on strong hands, unparalleled desire to survive, and a lot of luck. Gowen picked up a life from the hands of the death god Hela.

However, at this time, a more difficult task was placed in front of him.

He was a cripple who had legs but could not walk.

The Scandinavian Peninsula could not support idle people. Even if he followed the longship back, he would only have death waiting for him if he was unable to do any work.

At this time, Harold appeared.

**

Unlike the short Gowen, Harold was a tall and strong man over two meters tall. On weekdays, he made a living by logging on the Dragon's Breath Plateau, and followed the Duke's fleet to the land of the Slavs in autumn to plunder.

All year round, he was either chopping trees or chopping people, and his physique was extremely strong.

However, this autumn, when he was rummaging through boxes and cabinets in a manor to find spoils, the Slavic farmer hiding under the house set the whole manor on fire, determined to die with the Vikings.

In an instant, flames blazed and thick smoke billowed.

The farm was too large to trap Harold. When he finally used the axe to smash a passage, his eyes had been completely destroyed by the flames and smoke.

He became a blind man.

In many cases, the boundary between heaven and hell is only a thin piece of paper. It only took a moment for a strong Viking pirate to become a burden who was unable to do any labor.

Harold returned to the camp under the guidance of his companions, and he was also facing the fate of being eliminated by this cruel society.

However, when he saw his figure, Gowen felt like he saw a savior.

Gowen had eyes and hands, but no legs and could not walk.

Harold had a strong physique, but he had lost his sight and could not see. After a brief conversation one night, the two established a strange symbiotic relationship.

From then on, whenever they went out to plunder, Gowyn would ride on Harold's neck and throw javelins, while guiding him on the road.

At the same time, Harold's task was to pick up the axe and follow Gowyn's command to chop down all the enemies in front of the two.

At first, no one was optimistic about this pair of strange survivors.

Most people in Blood Pigeon Town bet that they would definitely not survive the next winter, but the two people's desire to survive was so strong that they supported each other and went through year after year.

Even in the English invasion last year, which lost 60% of their companions, they survived tenaciously.

Although they came from Blood Pigeon Town, the elite-loving old man Hummel never looked at these two cripples, so their loyalty to Loki was completely trustworthy.

When dividing the spoils, the two did not choose any land, but chose to take an abandoned castle by the sea plus three ramming ships, intending to continue to be a free pirate on the sea.

Throughout the winter, they sailed to the Visigothic Free City or the Mediterranean, robbing some lone merchant ships, or ambushing other pirates, doing some black-on-black business.

After just 5 months, this group of pirates had grown to own 10 ships of various colors and nearly 500 people. The name of the "Porcupine" Pirate Group gradually became famous in the Mediterranean.

Many people in the Visigothic Free City have seen this strange duo.

Rolf the Walker had a good relationship with this group of pirates, because at least half of their 400 men were "trained" by Rolf, and they were quite easy to use.

It happened that they had not been out to sea recently and were resting in the castle. Alfred and Rolf went to Gowen Manor under the stars and moon, and they had not said a word.

The two brothers immediately smiled and nodded at the same time.

They had been thinking about the wealthy French master in "Yun Province" for a long time!

If it weren't for Duke Loki's order not to actively look for trouble in the past two years, I'm afraid they would have chosen a dark and windy night to sneak into his manor and move away all the wealth that could be moved.

And now, the opportunity to rob this French fat sheep openly has come. The pirates don't understand useless nonsense like evil gods and conspiracies.

At this moment, they can only hear the pleasant sound of gold coins falling to the ground.

The blind Harold walked to the corner silently and put a "armor" that looked like a chair on his chest. Then, he skillfully lifted Gowyn and laid him on the seat behind his neck.

Gowyn moved his two unconscious legs and wrapped them around his thick neck. Harold put his usual javelin on his back and put two hand axes on his waist.

The two men in this state could not get on horses.

Their mount was a two-wheeled chariot pulled by two horses.

This was also a design inherited from ancient Rome.

In Scandinavia, the two had always dreamed of owning such a chariot, until now they became pirates.

Half an hour later, 400 pirates came out in full force.

Alfred's reinforcements expanded to 900 people.

This was already a large army, but thinking back to the densely packed 30,000 parasites in Yun Province.

He knew that this was not enough.
