, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the Rise of Rurik!

The army failed to intercept the big ship. The Danish leader Hafgen, his face full of beards, was slapped multiple times by unknown opponents.

It is very absurd that the opponent has already run away, and he still cannot be sure of their identities.

Will those allies question their own strength because of this? Has the strait become dangerous?

Taking into account the previous rumors, Hafgen increasingly felt that the ship had a great relationship with the rivals of Svealand.

But inferring the direction of the ship's passing, his anger has turned to his brother-in-law, Khalick.

No, Harik himself came to the home port of the tribe, reporting to his brother-in-law with exhaustion, pain, and grief.

Brother-in-law and younger sister came to report in person.

In the huge chamber of the Robard tribe, Hafgen sat on a wooden chair covered with black bear skin. A golden crown inlaid with a lot of precious stones on his head waited for his brother-in-law's greetings with enthusiasm.

Important people from some tribes have gathered in the chamber, and public opinion has been fermenting. They very much hope that Harik can explain more detailed news.

But when these people saw the man who was as strong as an elephant seal, he slowly walked into the chamber with the support of many people, and Hafgen's anger was completely occupied by doubt.

"You! What's the matter with you?" Hafgen stood up immediately, "How did you become so embarrassed."

Halik was speechless for a while, but his wife, Hafgen's sister, wept bitterly, My husband intercepted the intruding ship. My husband almost died in battle! Many people died, our ship faced That ship has nothing to do! Brother!"

"Actually...Is that so?"

Knowing that facts are better than eloquence, Halick opened his leather jacket to show off his severely bruised back. With this scene alone, the entire chamber was shocked.

Harry didn't want to talk, he felt that there was an abnormal pain in his body. He insisted on telling himself, unexpectedly an uncontrolled cough, and then coughed up blood from one hand.

"I... was almost killed by that big ship. It was a war bear running wild at sea. Our fleet could not intercept it. My line was easily destroyed by it..."

Halik really didn't want to say much, so his wife described what happened after the failed volley in the resund Strait.

Maybe the brother-in-law would be ashamed of losing the battle to find a step for himself, but the younger sister would never, let alone lie.

But how is the defeat described by my sister convincing?

"What? Just keep colliding, our ships... all sunk?"

"It's true." Harlick grudgingly, "I don't know where that ship is going. Maybe it's Flanders, maybe it's Oslo, maybe it's Bergen."

"Oslo doesn't have this kind of ship. So, they are the guys from Bergen? No. No! They are Svearan!"

Now, no one doubts what the Gotland refugees said before. With such a big ship running wild under their noses, the elites of the Lobad tribe felt that they lost their charm in the big victory in supporting Silverburg last year.

The big ship ran away without a trace, and Hafgen wanted to intercept the ship, kill the people on it, and then control the ship.

Everyone in the chamber was actively discussing it, but how to stop it has become a big problem.

They couldn't discuss the reason all day long, and Hafgen could only discuss it again.

Soon the Bornholm people also came.

The leader with only one ear cried out about a big ship from the north, and the surrounding islands were madly destroyed. The counterattack of the islanders was quickly destroyed by a ship, and the battle situation was exactly the same as that of the resund Strait.

The angry Hafgen hasn't eaten for two days. During this period of time, the people in the tribe have been in a panic.

Hafgen, who had learned his thoughts, didn't want this to be a big deal, and could not let other lords of other tribes learn that the Robards had been humiliated.

After all, the matter was dealt with coldly to the outside world.

But Hafgen wasn't nothing to do, he expected that ship would return sooner or later. How to intercept it?

"It seems that my Red Dragon must be dispatched."

The Red Dragon, the long and slender ship is a symbol of Hafgen's hegemony. This ship has no record of expedition, but her body is very large, in a sense it is a big barge. According to the traditional Nordic naval battles, the two sides of the war usually achieve the final victory by jumping and slashing. Based on this tactical feature, the Red Dragon can carry hundreds of fighters, and it's really an opportunity to jump and help fight!

Hafgen couldn't help it. He himself didn't see how the big ship smashed the enemy ship with his own eyes. Considering that rowing long boats against each other is also an effective tactic, he implied to himself that the so-called Red Dragon was dispatched to grasp the victory. .

Has the big Svearan ship ever gone? If you come back, when will you come back?

In recent years, the guys from Svealand desperately ate up the northern territory of Denmark, causing the Hafgen demon to defend against the Franks and the Sislavs, and face the blatant military invasion by the northern guys.

The situation is obviously more complicated. More Danish tribes and lords are more enthusiastic about the organized raids on the settlements on the Frankish coast.

Wouldn't the Franks fight back? And Harald Clark, the man who betrayed Odin fled to Frank, will that man counterattack Denmark?

The situation is very tricky! Huff basically thought his enemy was the Frankish military Avia, and he strengthened his defenses, and the lords inside were similar. Soothing these guys, the Svearan became the biggest and most urgent threat again.

The heavy pressure caused Hafgen to have a headache, and even crazier, why didn't his wife and concubine give birth to a son?

As time went by, the influence of the hateful ship slowly dissipated, and time entered into June.

In order to consolidate his power, Hafgen in June picked five women from the tribe in one go, and they had frequent violence in order to have a son.

As a result, weird things happened. These young women who were expecting to be next to the lord, still in June, they all died outside.

Hafgen was not a fool, he could see it was murder! Who is behind the scenes? Who the **** is it?

He was suspicious of those powerful leaders, the so-called guys didn't want to have children to continue to occupy the interpretation.

But Hafgen never thought that the man behind the scenes was by his side.

Harik, who suffered internal injuries, was coughing up blood more and more severely. He took his wife back to the place where he was guarding the resund Strait and was unable to afford it in Mubao.

He suffered from a lung infection, and even if the priest made some herbs and some blessing spells, there was still no improvement. He died in a painful high fever, leaving behind an orphan and a widow.

Hafgen's sister has lost her husband, and the grieving woman is angry at the Svearan attacks, but her desire for power is also awakening. She wanted to train her son to be the male leader of the Lobad tribe, so she tried her best to kill the new women of Gang's brother.

Hafgen never dreamed that the most terrifying enemies were his sister and nephew.

Hafgen always felt that the black hands were potential traitors in the alliance. In order to consolidate his power, he decided to create a grand summer solstice ritual at the bazaar in Hazeby in the south!

The 28th day of June in the old Julian calendar is the summer solstice. This is the biggest summer festival for the Danes, and this period is also the day when the Saxons settled in Hezeby pay homage to the **** Sirius.

From the slave market in Hezeby, Hafgen bought up to ninety-nine men abducted from Frank at one go, and even some local merchants sold domestic slaves to Haf for money. root.

The lord of the leader spends money to buy slaves, and for this reason, the extra price is higher than the market price. Which merchant does not want to trade?

In this case, the "Silver Fox" Snoreva, who has just begun to take root in Hezebi, built his own shop in a low-key manner, and let the old Eric family stand at the front desk, selling high-profile polar bear skins from the far north, etc. Wonderful commodity.

No one is aware of the penetration of the Ross merchants, even if someone suspects, will Sleeping have trouble with silver coins and short-selling commodities?

Snoreva himself has been acting in a low-key manner. He wanders around the market in Hezeby. The business environment here is far better than that of the market in Mlaren, which excites him.

Snoreva even discovered a kind of "cloth" that is as light as Zen, and the price is equal to the weight of gold, or ten times the amount of silver. It was the first time he had seen someone from Eastern Rome, and he immediately bought a little and kept it. The so-called time is dedicated to Lord Rurik.

Just as he was searching for his slave labor in the slave market, he happened to see the protruding Danish leader himself, "explosive buying" of the largest slave market.

What exactly does the Danish king do?

The big sacrifice until the summer solstice...

It was a crazy night. The Saxons of Hezeby lit bonfires everywhere, and the guys who were well-dressed on weekdays also gathered with their Saxons and danced around the flames.

The masked priests presided over the event. They beheaded slaves, beheaded cattle and sheep, and burned herring to ashes to sacrifice to the shining Sirius in the sky.

It seems that this is their summer solstice sacrifice? At first, Snoreva didn't think much, the Ross, Mellaren, or Ankras people, the big activities on the summer solstice day are very lively.

Snoreva especially remembers the blood of his hometown of Anklas, where people worshipped Frey, the **** of harvest, in summer, in order to reward the oats for their growth.

The extremely short night is over, but the sacrificial activities are still lively.

"What the **** is going on? I watched their night worship, do they continue throughout the day?" Snoreva, who lives in the mansion deliberately to sleep, was so noisy that he couldn't sleep at all.

Old Eric explained, "My friend, at night it is the Saxon sacrifice, and it is the Danish until the day."

"There is actually such a thing. It doesn't matter, it's nothing more than beheading slaves and offering sacrifices to gods with blood."

Old Eric deeply agrees, but this year's situation is obviously too special. He suggested, "My friend, I think we should go to the altar. The brutal Hafgen likes blood sacrifices the most. This man put up a huge altar this year, and all the Danish lords and wealthy merchants will go there. Come and observe."

"I'm not sleepy anymore if you say that." Snoreva hurriedly got up the two, "Maybe we can meet other rich merchants. You know, we Ross people are eager to trade, here I am very unfamiliar. I'm going to rely on you."

"That's natural, I am willing to serve you." Old Eric's words came from the bottom of his heart. He has made a fortune now, and obviously there will be more fortunes in the future. More importantly, his most fancy son is still being held hostage by the Ross people. The act of marriage is also a chain, and he must maintain cooperation.

The whole Hezeby was boiling. Hearing that the leader of the leader performed a great sacrifice, all the people of insight from Denmark came to observe, and this objectively directly led to the peak of Hezeby's business.

The winding roads are lined with merchants peddling messy goods, and pedestrian customers can't be exaggerated.

Snoreva had unprecedented crowding and daring, and he was even very scared in his heart. He did not expect the population of Denmark to be so large. This is the proof of their strength.

He followed the crowd and finally reached the altar near the sea. It was a flat near shore, surrounded by circular highlands, and it was already full of people at the moment.

Snoreva squeezed into a good viewing unknown, and he heard the people nearby discussing the astonishing ritual situation.

He then asked a man who seemed to be a businessman: "Friend. Leader...sir, is this blood sacrifice again?"

"You? Can't you tell?"

"I"

"Anyone from outside? Are you... from Bergen? Or Oslo?"

Snoreva hurriedly said haha, "It's Bergen, I'm here to do business for the first time."

"Really? If you have paid the tribute, just watch it. You are a foreign businessman, so don't talk too much when observing the sacrifice."

Snoreva nodded hurriedly and said yes.

The businessman hurriedly pointed his finger, "Those who kneel on the ground are all sacrifices."

"Ah? They are not viewers? There are so many of them."

"You are an outsider who naturally doesn't understand. This time the leader has bought out the slaves in the bazaar. I can't think of it! The leader... actually is like this. What a waste."

Obviously this businessman was dissatisfied with the actions of Hafgen in Denmark, beheading a hundred slaves at a time to sacrifice to Odin?

Snoreva waited and waited, and as expected, those sacrifices were shouting that this extremely grand sacrifice was offering sacrifices to Odin.

The reason for such a crazy move, Huff yelled out in public. He held up his sword and called out to the sun: Great Odin! This is a gift for you! Accept my offerings! Give me invincible strength!

He roared many times, and then stared sharply at the ready executioner, "Blood Sacrifice Odin! It's now."

In this way, the executioner began to hold the dagger and acted at the shivering slave...

It's a crazy and terrifying scene~www.mtlnovel.com~ Snoreva turned his head and couldn't bear to look directly at him. Thousands of people onlookers were shocked by it. The entire area around the altar made a loud noise, like the earth. To crack.

The blood of sacrifice was sacrificed to Odin. The scale of the sacrifice really drove people to believe that Hafgen had a plan, and things about the war became people's talk again.

It seems that everything has gradually returned to calm. While doing business, Snoreva is also actively recording the thinking dynamics of the local Danes. Are they planning to use troops to the north? At the right time, these news will be brought back to Roseburg.

As for what happened after the Aphrodite sailed away, Rurik had no time to take care of it. The anger of the Danish leader and the scale of the sacrifice have nothing to do with him.

Because the Aphrodite rides on the warm and strong southwest wind on the Atlantic Ocean, it will continue and safely move north along the coastline.

The final voyage was not only fast but also without twists and turns, especially the final voyage. The Bijuni brothers have become excellent guides. Finally, with about ten days before the so-called summer solstice, an unprecedented large ship suddenly appeared in Narvi Kefjord, immediately caused a sensation...
