Chapter 573 Barbarian Warrior

Just as the father and daughter were sitting by the candlelight and having a long conversation, a sudden whistle sounded outside, followed by a series of noises and shouts outside the camp, and at the same time the sounds of running footsteps and the collision of armor could be heard.

Jenkins suddenly stood up, picked up the sword beside him and prepared to go out to take a look, but Ada rushed out of the tent at a faster speed. This female knight was a rare genius in the army. Among the younger generation, she was even more famous than her father.

"Enemy attack!" Sharp shouts rang out everywhere, and many people ran towards the scene with torches and weapons.

"To the south!" shouted a soldier standing on the lookout.

"So many people, are they barbarians?"

As the soldiers who were called up approached, they could see the faces of those who were fighting with them.

In the bright yellow light of the fire, this group of enemies were holding shields, wielding axes, and had white and red paint on their faces, looking quite ferocious.

They rushed into the crowd with strange cries, hacking without regard for their lives. A red mark flashed on the long axe, and they swung it down at the enemy's weak joints, bringing up a pool of blood and broken limbs.

These warriors, their faces painted, wore only a small amount of armor on their chests and shoulders, with the rest of their bodies covered in a single layer of clothing. This provided low defense, but it also allowed them to quickly advance into the enemy camp, causing chaos everywhere and hacking and killing soldiers who hadn't reacted yet.

However, the guards from the Frost Alliance soon arrived. After a brief period of confusion, they formed a formation, with their sickle-hook spears pointing outward, piercing through the wild warriors who tried to get close.

When Ada arrived with a team of guards wearing full armor and dark blue cloaks, the battle situation here was slowly under control.

She also put the sword aside for the moment and asked the officer beside her.

"Can you tell where they come from?"

"Knight Commander Aida, these people are likely barbarian warriors from the north, hired by the New Virga Alliance. Since the barbarians were conquered by West Wind decades ago, their people have been scattered all over the place. This group is probably being raised by a major chamber of commerce as guards and death squads."

"How strong are they?"

"Although they have little armor and their individual combat capabilities are not bad, unfortunately they lack discipline. Facing the assembled army, they have no advantage."

As the officer spoke, a group of soldiers in formation had surrounded the night attack team of about 800 people and were killing them in an orderly manner.

"Kill!" Many soldiers suppressed their anxiety and, together with their teammates, thrust out the long spears in their hands and stabbed the enemies to the ground one by one.

Most of them were new recruits. Although they had received complete training, it was their first time to kill someone in the battlefield. Fortunately, there were many companions and comrades around them, so they gradually calmed down.

With this strange night attack, nearly 100,000 people in the entire camp woke up. Later, scouts were sent out to investigate the surrounding area. After confirming that it was safe, everyone slowly went to sleep, but by then it was almost dawn.
