The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine)

Chapter 900 The Absurd “Night Attack”

The air itself seemed to freeze.

Murderous aura was seeping through Achilles’ body, and it even overwhelmed the bone-biting cold

brought on by the blizzard.

Jack turned his head around to look downwards. The bristling storm had made visibility very low.

Everything was a faint white. He couldn’t make out anything at all!

“Sergeant White, is there people approaching from below?”

Debut was very flustered.

When everyone saw Achilles whip out his weapon, their tension turned up a notch.

Achilles was looking gravely white as he didn’t say anything.

His brows were locked and his pupils were contracted. He was focusing all of his attention on the

whiteness below.

At the same time, there were faint sounds like arrow being sent out in the distance.

The sound continued to break the silence at regular intervals, and they seemed to come from both the

right and left direction.

Every one of those sounds were pricking the nerves of Jack and the gang.

At that moment, putting aside Jack, even Debut and his team was focusing their attention on any

movements below them.

They wanted to make out what was going to happen in the stark darkness of night.

The blizzard continued to billow, further decreasing their visibility.

This nauseating sense of foreboding caused everyone to reach their breaking points. Each of their

nerves were turned up a huge notch.

“What is actually approaching us?”

Debut’s brows continued to furrow.

However, nobody answered him at the moment.

With a crunching sound, Jack slowly raised his bow and arrows in anticipation like Achilles. He aimed it

at a point in space below them.

He wasn’t sure what was approaching them, but he had to be alert just like Achilles. They couldn’t go

wrong this way.

For a soldier, it was only natural for them to defend!

Debut, Cole and Yarol all exchanged glances.

Although they were confused, but they mimicked Jack and turned around to search for their bows.

However, just as they were busy searching for them, there were incessant stomping just outside the

fortress, as if a huge army was making their way towards them on feet.

The sound was like a huge wave and immediately the stomping became very evident.

And soon, the sound reached deafening volume.

The sudden rumbling sound hinted at a huge army running towards them, which made Jack furrow his

brows in confusion.

And Debut and his team who were searching for bows were immediately sunken into a frenzy.

Nobody expected that in such a low visibility, there would be such a frightening scene unfolding right in

front of their eyes.

The sound even made them feel that the ground underneath their feet was shaking more and more

violently as it got louder.

“What is going on down there?” Jack asked in a hushed tone.

Achilles who was on guard and didn’t say a thing suddenly answered, and his reply immediately

stunned Jack and Debut.

He said, “The cows!”

It was a simple reply, but Jack and the others were dumbfounded.

At that moment, Debut and his team finally found their bow and arrows, and they were standing at the

top of the fortress, their bows stretching to their limits.

Debut asked frantically, “Sergeant White, if they are just cows, aren’t we being way too exaggerated?

Those animals won’t be able to breach our fortress!”

Just as he finished his sentence, Achilles roared with a single instruction, “Shoot!”

With a whipping and slashing sound, the arrow which was being elastically pulled to its limit was let go,

and it immediately careened towards the murky area below.

In the muffled sound of blizzard, a cow’s dilapidated groan could be heard. It was so loud that it was

echoing in the sky.

At the same time, countless arrows were being sent out by the guards on the fortress which were

slashing through the air.

In the dark depths of the fortress below, successive moaning and groaning could be heard from the

cows.

The rumbling didn’t stop, but it actually became more intense as the arrows were being targeted at

them.

Sounds of snow tearing through the air and the cow’s roaring and moaning were interspersed with the

sounds of arrows targeting the cows.

The cow continued to groan.

All of a sudden, this mess plunged the whole region into a total chaos.

The multiple layers of different sounds resembled an orchestra performing at midnight, with the tunes

giving off the impression of a bloody score of music.

Finally, Jack focused his gaze and saw the outlines of the herd of cows.

Each of them were unusually bulky, and there were long black hair protruding from their bodies. Arrows

were sticking out of their skins.

At first glance, the blackness morphed into one current which were gushing at them.

With a loud whipping sound, Jack let go of his arrow.

He could clearly see his arrow bury itself on the back of one of a black cow, and immediately blood

splattered out of its skin.

Despite that injury, the black cow didn’t slow down but instead it went into a frenzy and came rushing at

the wall.

“What… what the hell is going on here?”

Debut was completely shocked, “Sergeant White, we are supposed to stand guard tonight, but why

does this turn into a slaughter of cows?”

“Don’t ask ignorant questions now. Your duty is to send the arrows at them.”

Achilles’ voice was chilly cold, and his face was grave.

His orders were not to be refuted.

As he let out a shout, Debut, Cole and Yarol stopped yapping as they turned their attention on killing

those black cows.

It was a strange sight to behold!

Those animals were just animals in the end, and no matter how strong they were, there was no way

they could break through the walls of the fortress.

However, in the darkest hours of midnight, all the guards standing by were locked in a death match with

those very animals.

It was absurd, befuddling and incomprehensible.

Jack’s wandering gaze fell upon Achilles who looked uptight and serious as the speed of his hand

increased to send more arrows out.

Jack didn’t understand the whole picture here.

But he was well aware that if this were just merely a slaughter of cows, the former Chief Guard wouldn’t

have such a solemn expression on his face! Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

The cows continued to rush towards the wall without stopping.

Following the raining down of arrows by all the guards, one after another the black cows stumbled to

the ground. Even if they didn’t die from the arrows, the injured cows didn’t stop at all as they continued

to smash into the wall like suicide bombers.

With his naked eyes, Jack could roughly estimate the cows’ numbers which was in the thousands. In

the far reaches of the land where his eyes couldn’t see, he didn’t dare to imagine how many more were

coming.

In no time, just in front of the wall, dead carcasses of cows began to pile up.

The killing continued and with greater pace, and Jack even saw that other soldiers who were not on

duty at this hour had joined into the killing too.

This slaughter show continued for three hours!

When the last of the cows fell down, even Jack could feel a deep soreness in his arms.

Debut and the gang had their arms dangling by their sides, unable to force any strength into them.

They had agonized expressions on their faces as they couldn’t stop trembling.

“I have put in some good training in my archery skills tonight.”

Jack laughed bitterly as he thought about the more inflexible and resilient type of bows they were

using. For a normal human being, it would be hard enough to just stretch the string, let alone launching

arrows after arrows for hours.

Even for the soldiers of the Dragon Cavalry Squad, this intense activity had taken a huge toll on their

bodies.

“Whew…”

Achilles put down his bow and unlike the others, he looked sharp even after pulling the string of the

bow for three hours, as if those hours didn’t tire his arms out one bit.

“Damn it, there were at least four thousand cows just now. Fuck!”

Even Achilles broke into a bout of cursing as he leaned over the wall and commented on this fiasco.

What were the secrets hidden within these cows?

Jack’s brows were furrowed deeply as he stared at the mountains of cow carcasses below.

Three hours of killing had caused the carcasses to pile up to a height of five meters!
