Imdiately Dag got up and pulled out the hamr.
He dipped it into the red-soaked snow, and the rocky head of his weapon beca covered in blood.
It was only after completing this operation that he joined his comrades, who had since killed all the citizens, who did not exceed thirty units.
"Dag, did you check the other warehouse? What's inside? We're still trying to open this one!" Freydis said, who as soon as she saw her man arrive began to ask him questions, but noticing the blood-soaked hamr, she realized that he had been fighting.
"No, I haven't checked it. I was busy with two farrs ard with shovels and pitchforks" he replied, pretending perfectly.
Right at that ti, Sander approached the two doors of the building in front of them, which was a large semi-circle of stone and concrete, in the shape of an igloo.
"Get out of the way" he ordered two of his n, intending to force the lock of the two thick solid wooden doors that closed the structure.
After the soldiers made room for their Master, he pulled out his shield and placed it in front of him.
Loading a push on his legs, he snapped towards the door and as soon as the shield hit it, the tal lock broke into a thousand pieces and the door opened, revealing the contents of the warehouse.
"Hahaha! Look at all this food! We will finally eat sothing!" he exclaid, chuckling and putting the shield back in its place, after breaking a gigantic door with impressive ease.
Dag was amazed by the staggering physical strength of the Master Of Defense and along with him, Egill, Gridd, and Kjell entered the dod building.
Inside, nurous shelves on the walls were filled with all kinds of provisions: in addition to fresh at of wild boar and buffalo, there were barrels full of ad and others filled with cow's milk.
A shelf was completely full of fish, both fresh and dried, the sll of which inebriated the nostrils of the soldiers, whose stomach began to mumble.
"Wow..." Dag said, unable to hold back his astonishnt at seeing all that food and thinking that there was a second warehouse that had not yet been opened.
Sander rushed up so shelves and began to gobble everything, grabbing a piece of salmon already cut and slightly dried and devouring it in a matter of seconds.
Then he grabbed a mug and opened one of the ad barrels, filling it to the brim and drinking with greed.
The other Masters did the sa, leaving room to the soldiers, that lined up neatly and accessed the loot, to feed their stomachs.
About half an hour passed, when all the warriors of the three Clans fed, eating more than half the stock of the entire warehouse.
Dag chose to eat fresh fish, which with Freydis cooked inside after lighting a small bonfire with Reidar's help.
As the village was relatively close to the cliff and the sea, it seed that the fish was more easily available than at, which was in short supply.
After eating and drinking satiated, everyone imdiately began to fill their backpacks with other supplies, ready to resu the journey shortly, smiling and satisfied.
"Dag, follow . Let's go open the other warehouse" Sander exclaid, resting his hand on Dag's shoulder and waiting for him to get up, to accompany him to the second semi-spherical building.
As they walked on the snow, under which they could see a road built with smooth rocks, a voice suddenly shouted: "up there! The bell! Soone's going to sound the alarm!"
Imdiately, all the n present looked up towards the tower, after a Shieldmaiden had seen a figure moving on its top.
Dag did the sa and being closer than the others to the place in question, he was able to distinguish the details of that shape.
The child, who had just hidden under the overturned carriage, was climbing on one of the edges of the top floor of the tower, trying to grab the rope to ring the bell, decidedly too high for his stature.
"Fuck... I told you to stay still and hide..." Dag thought, as his allies were alard, looking for a way to prevent the little boy from tolling the bell.
Before he could turn to his companions, an arrow struck the child, piercing his neck.
He, who had managed to reach the bell, clung to the rope and clutched it in his hands, falling inward, lifeless.
Dag turned backward and noticed that the arrow had been fired by Reidar, who was the only one of them capable of hitting such a distant target with that precision.
When the archer looked at his captain, his expression beca sad, sharing the empathy Dag was feeling towards that poor innocent child.
Reidar did not have ti to say a word when the bell rang.
*doooon*
A single sound rumbled across the village, spreading across the plain, slightly shifting the snow to the edges of the rocks, which fell to the ground in flakes.
All the Berserkrs and Shieldmaidens of the three Clans stood still and looked around with terrified expressions, ready for the worst.
Dag did the sa, trying to peer into sothing in the distance, but the only thing he saw was a shadow running towards them from afar.
Squinting his eyes and sharpening his gaze, he discovered that it was Thalos, who at great speed was heading in the direction of the village.
When the bell stopped vibrating and the propagation of its sound stopped, the wolf ca in front of Dag and hid behind his legs.
"Thalos! What's going on, what do you hear? Enemies? Where are they? Which way are they coming?" he asked, noting that the wolf was terrified like a helpless lamb, emitting verses of fear, with its tail between its legs.
No one said a word, everyone stood still and listened, with their weapons in their hands, ready to defend themselves.
