Reincarnated Lord: I can upgrade everything!

Chapter 55: Upgrading The Wall



Just beyond the forest was a plain snow field, and she could see small figures working around the ice wall, lifting ice blocks, pushing snow to the bottom of the wall, and many other things. 

The height was too much for her to identify who was who, but she guessed her lord was there.

She looked back at the forest and finally verified that the wolves had already identified the soldiers who were working on the wall as prey. 

She didn't know how big these wolves were, but if they could have this size from the position she looked from, then they must be quite big.

"Light the fire!" 

The rangers in charge of lighting the fire ran toward the tower only to find the firewood frozen. This was due to a part of the wooden tower that was destroyed by the mountain lions, and the cold had gotten to the wood.

Both of them went on their knees, and firesparks appeared in the palm of their hand before growing into small flame balls. This was their talent. It was a weak fireball, as small as an egg, and it would not increase except they somehow became diamond-ranked rangers.

They lit the fire after thawing the ice with several tires.

....

"Your Lordship, look, Eritrea must have reduced those in charge of the tower." 

Alex pointed at the smoke billowing off the mountaintop, and when Asher saw it, he smiled. 

Knowing Eritrea had succeeded, the mood of the soldiers went up.

Asher looked at the wall, which was already completed, and nodded softly. 

"Your Lordship!" 

Alex's voice went up.

Asher looked at what he pointed at and saw another smoke billowing into the clouds. His expression changed.

The skies were already darkening, but the subtle sounds and growls he heard from the forest were different from the usual sounds, and with his senses focused on the forest, he immediately picked up that they were about to be attacked by flesh-rating beasts.

"Pick up your weapons! Into the town!" 

Alex, whose sense was even sharper, bellowed, his voice reaching the ears of almost everyone in the town.

Unfortunately, those in the town weren't the only ones who heard him.

Boom! 

The wolves sprinted out of the forests; their dull golden eyes, spiky white fur, and large builds intimidated the soldiers who weren't even expecting it.

Yet, despite the ferocious sight of ravenous wolves drooling at the sight of them and exposing their deadly fangs.

There were over 400 wolves! 

Swoosh Swoosh! 

The rangers tried to hold them off, but Asher knew they were at a disadvantage.

Shing! 

Alex drew his mighty sword. 

"Shuras, protect the Lord!" 

He dashed off with two Shura Vanguards while five surrounded Asher. By the time Alex was close to the wolves, he saw someone run past him and behead a bronze-ranked wolf, put a brutal stop to the second one with his foot, and slapped the third with his left hand. 

All this was done in seconds!

And it was his Lord.

Asher!

Alex swung his sword upward, dividing three wolves in one go, then he causally grabbed a wolf and flung it at the horde.

"Your Lordship!" 

Asher plunged his sword into the chest of a wolf, faced Alex, and turned back to face the wolf he killed. "Don't move forward, move backward."

Alex turned his head back and discovered the many wolves had closed the gap and engaged the soldiers and miners who weren't properly armed. Only a few soldiers were armed, and they were already doing their best to kill as much as they could.

Around Asher was a clean zone, as no wolf that came near survived the blades of the vanguards. They were so powerfully strong and skilled that not even silver-ranked wolves could get past them.

They had to make sure no wolf sneak attacked their lord. 

"Fall back!" 

Asher yelled. 

"Fall Back!!" Alex yelled with a much louder voice that those close to the walls could hear. 

While running backward, Asher saw a wolf running his way. However, a shura vanguard ran from behind him and collided with the beast, slamming it aside. 

Asher averted his gaze and sheathed his sword since he might not have a use for it. 

A large number of wolves chased after them, and those at the gates were waiting for them to enter before they closed it, but Asher and Alex knew it was impossible. The wolves would also enter. 

"Shut the gates!"

Asher bellowed. 

Not even a minute after the gate was shut, Asher reached the wall and leaped. 

Bam! 

He grabbed a spot that was purposely left. He built this in case his men needed to climb the walls when danger arose. It was a temporary design that would vanish after the ice wall was fused with the damaged wall. 

Without a second more to adjust, he began climbing swiftly. While Asher and his men climbed, Alex was on the ground cutting down wolves that wanted to lunge toward the climbers.

"You had to go hunting at the wrong time, Sirius! You should have waited to greet your brothers!" 

Alex scowled. 

After Asher and the others had climbed the wall and jumped to the other side, Alex leaped over the wall and landed on the other side. 

He quickly ran through the second gate, and it was shut.

He saw Lambert put on his helmet and grab his lance. He was fully equipped with his sword sheathed into his scabbard, which was strapped to his waist, and a dagger at his back. 

[Would the host like to fuse the ice wall and the stone wall to produce an upgraded version, Reinforced Ice Wall? Yes or No.]

'Yes!'

Swoosh! 

It was as if a wave of white light slammed the ice wall, and it slammed the stone wall. Instantly, the ground trembled a bit, and the wall surrounding the town was transformed.

The wall grew to become a 5-meter-tall wall that was 4 meters wide and had an azure texture. It was as if the wall was carved out of bluestones and placed around Silverleaf town. 

An external layer of ice coated the wall, making it almost impossible to climb.
