As we all know, I rarely use the word "top" to describe an American drama.
But in "Viking Legends", I clearly see the halo of top American dramas.
Especially in the tenth episode of the sixth season, the tragic and epic texture came head-on, and it was unstoppable.
Finally waited for you, but fortunately did not give up.
After a long foreshadowing of 9 episodes, the 10th episode finally ushered in a climax explosion.
What should come always comes: Armageddon.
King Bjorn and King Harald had long expected that the army of the Rus would go straight to the capital of the Kingdom of Norway.
The coastline is long, and there is a line of sky and sea in the distance. Bjorn looks into the distance with confusion in his eyes.
He was very anxious at the moment.
Because the staff who knew the Rus people best told him: This is not an ordinary invasion, this is the twilight of the gods.
All American TV veterans know that since the first season of this show, the capital of the Vikings has not been invaded by foreign enemies.
The Viking warriors headed by Ragnar always take the initiative to attack, set sail, and fight decisively outside the country.
This time, their opponents are not only the Ross army, but also their own brother: Ivar.
At this moment, Ivar is leading a huge fleet that appears on the horizon.
The warships stretched as far as the eye could see, the flags rose and fell one after another, and the army of 100,000 people was daunting.
Ivar on the flagship looked at the Vikings on the coast with a fox-like smile.
In an instant, his and Bjorn's eyes collided, their eyes met, their eyes crossed, and they sympathized with each other.
They are brothers, love and kill each other until they die.
The horn of the charge rang loudly, the Ross warship came, and the Ross warriors on the troop transport swarmed.
The first battle of the beach landing officially started.
The archers on the high ground shot wave after wave of arrow feathers, and the sound of breaking through the air struck, and the Rus people fell on the golden sand.
The Viking warriors who had refused the horse picked up their long swords and tomahawks, and released their bloody anger between slashing and stabbing.
The battle axe was swung, the long sword neighed, the shield collided, and the sound of killing was loud!
But there are too many Russ people, denser than locusts, so densely packed that they can't be stopped at all.
When the weak line of defense was torn open, the Ross people of the brigade brigade rushed in like a flood.
Just like the rising tide, the sea drowns everything, who can resist the surging army like the tide?
King Harald thought he could, with a round shield in his left hand and a long sword in his right hand, roaring and looking at the world.
The crown on his head shone with golden light in the sunlight, shimmering with dazzling light and radiant light.
There is a saying that if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.
Every time King Harald slashes, he can personally feel the weight of it.
Along with the frantic charge of the Ross army, he also felt that the power was constantly flowing in his body.
He eventually fell, the crown fell, and with it his short-lived kingdom.
Next, it was Bjorn's turn.
He had thought that he would definitely defeat Ivar, because the gods were always with him.
He follows the decisions of the gods.
Like the miscarriage of his wife before the war, in his view it was also the decision of the gods.
But Ivar told him decisively, brother, the gods have already abandoned you, you can't win.
Bjorn stood firm until Ivar's sword pierced his chest.
No one thought we'd say goodbye to Bjorn in this episode.
We won't be too sentimental in the face of King Harald's bento. In this play, there are kings of running water.
But it's Bjorn who has been growing up with us since he was a kid in the first season.
Bjorn didn't grow up in a day, he fits the ideal growth pattern very well.
It's just that we never thought that we would say goodbye to Bjorn's departure in this episode.
In the sixth episode of the sixth season, the shield girl Lagossa is gone, and in the tenth episode, her own son Bjorn is also gone.
The sense of tragic and epic is strong at this moment.
After Ragnar, another soul hero of "Viking Legends" took the lunch.
But there are still 10 episodes left in the sixth season. Without Bjorn, what will the screenwriter do next?
As early as the ninth episode, I had a hunch that something would definitely happen to the battle in this episode, but it only locked on King Harald.
Unexpectedly, even Bjorn was also killed in this battle.
Although the grass snake and gray line in the first 9 episodes had a foreboding, until this moment, I was still reluctant to believe it.
Since Ragnar's death, Bjorn has been the reason many viewers have stuck with it.
Although he did not inherit his father's resourcefulness, his blood and courage was a true inheritance of seven points.
This episode, the offline of the two Viking leaders, is even worse for the Vikings who are not united.
After that, who can carry the banner of resistance against the Rus army and become the hero of slaughtering dragons?
This question, Bjorn has no chance to think about it.
At the moment when he collapsed, his thoughts were flying, eager to capture a glimpse of light and shadow.
Gradually blurred consciousness is not controlled by personal will.
Roared, struggled, fought, fought, and now all my thoughts are gone.
The long sword was inserted alone on the beach, and under the setting sun, the sea breeze caressed the blade and made a humming dragon roar.
That was the last sigh.
Under the twilight of the gods, dust to dust, dust to dust.
