After leaving the city gate, Dani rode her horse for more than ten miles. In a small forest, Dani rode Whitey again.
After flying west for another half an hour, the two dragons landed in a swamp near the Lohn River. The White Knight took off his leather boots, rolled up his silk pants, and stepped on the smelly mud. One after another, he carried back two huge sacks from a patch of green reeds.
One of the sacks contained armor and swords. It was soaked with water, and the bottom half was stained with black mud. The other sack was piled on top of it. The books and dragon eggs were not wet.
"Wow, what a harvest!" Danny whistled and looked at the armor excitedly.
As soon as she touched the helmet, a strange stench hit her nose. It was like the pork she bought from the supermarket in the summer and forgot to put in the refrigerator.
"Well, Marazzo's armor is too big for me." Danny immediately threw the helmet on the grass in disgust.
Barristan picked up the helmet like it was a treasure and wiped the mud on it with his hand. "Burn it with dragon flame. I'll wear it!"
Looking at his "I've been waiting for this for a long time" look, Danny nodded silently. "Okay."
There was no hope for the armor. She began to look for a suitable long sword.
"To reduce the weight, I threw away the scabbard." Barristan helped her choose a long sword that was three fingers wide and 1.2 meters long. "I remember it's called 'Clear Sky'. It weighs about seven catties and is 1.5 meters long. It's a little light for me, but it's just right for Your Majesty."
"Well, not bad. The sword is good, and the name is okay." Danny waved the sword, but it felt a little sluggish. "The center of gravity is wrong. The hilt needs to be heavier."
"I've thought about it." Barristan took out a ball of golden thread from his backpack. "I bought it at the blacksmith this morning. Let me help you tie it."
After looking at the weapon, Danny held the red dragon egg in her arms and carefully felt the weak breath of life in it. It was like a candle flame in the vast land at night.
"This dragon egg belongs to the Targaryen family. How did it get out?"
"I'm not sure. After the Blood Dragon's Mad Dance, almost all the dragons died, but there were still a few dozen dragon eggs left. The kings of the past all tried to use wildfire to hatch the dragons, but all of them failed. The dragon eggs were burnt and destroyed.
Just the fire in the Midsummer Hall 40 years ago had caused the loss of seven dragon eggs.
Perhaps someone took advantage of the chaos and concealed the number of destroyed dragon eggs. "Barristan guessed as he tightened the string on his sword hilt.
"No, it's not the dragon egg from the Dance of the Blood Dragon. The Braavosi said it himself. The dragon egg came from 250 years ago." Danny shook her head.
"This … is too long ago. I don't know anything about it. You can go to Oldtown and ask the Academicians. They have studied the history of House Targaryen, "White Knight suggested.
Previously, Danny and White Knight had planned to travel to Astapor — Volantis (2500 km) — Dorne (2000 km) — Old Town (2000 km) — King's Landing (1700 km) — Hejian (800 km).
Yup, the above data was based on the distance in a straight line. Danny could fly on a dragon, but the others would have to make a big detour regardless of whether they were on a boat or a horse.
"The situation has changed. Old Town isn't as safe as we thought." Danny told White Knight about the Dragonslayer Crossbow with a heavy expression.
"Because of Margaery Tyrell? How is that possible? " White Knight was puzzled. Even if he wasn't good at politics, he understood that the High Court didn't have to be so ruthless with just a widow queen.
Yup, "Little Rose" Margaery was also a weirdo in "Game of Thrones."
During the War of the Four Kings, Renly married Margaery, the first daughter of House Tyrell, in order to win over the High Court. A few days after they got married, King Renly died at the hands of his brother Stannis, leaving Little Rose a widow.
The Stags and Roses alliance went bankrupt. Later, under the efforts of Tywin, Rose allied with the Lions. As the price for the alliance, Cersei's son Joffrey was engaged to the little widow Margaery.
On the day of the wedding, Joffrey was poisoned to death by House Tyrell, leaving Margaery a widow for the second time.
According to the plot, Margaery was about to marry Joffrey's brother Tommen, but Tommen was only nine years old …
Thus, Little Rose gave herself the bandit title of "Virgin Queen."
"I still have to go to the City of Knowledge." After thinking for a moment, the old knight said seriously, "Your Majesty, there are two goals for this trip to the Westeros. First, investigate the current situation of the Seven Kingdoms and help Sir Mormont understand the current situation of Bear Island."
No, the above two goals are not important to me. Leaving Slave Bay and leaving enough time for Count Butcher to clean up the Gith nobles in Meereen is my main goal.
After causing a ruckus in Volantis, I will find a chance to appear in the Westeros again. The perfect proof of "ignorance" — the queen was on official business and everything was done by Scholar Laidler.
This way, even if Scholar Laidler went on a killing spree and slaughtered all the Gith nobles, Danny would at most hold a public trial and then kill Ma Su.
Of course, she could not say this to the old knight. She still wanted to be a bright and kind queen!
"Without a doubt, the old town is the city of scholars. The news of the Seven Kingdoms will gather there. At most, you can change your appearance and hide your identity, "Whitebeard continued.
"Can I disguise myself as a Shadow Binder?" Danny asked.
"Well, the old town is not only the city of scholars. Before Aegon conquered the Seven Kingdoms, the main church of the Church of the Seven Gods was also there. The appearance of a Shadow Child would probably attract more attention," the old man said hesitantly.
"Okay, dye your hair, trim your eyebrows, and apply lipstick. “
This world also has hair dyeing technology. The dye extracted from plants is applied on the surface of the hair like paint. It can be washed with soap soap and restore the original hair color. This is an advantage, but at the same time, it is also a disadvantage. It is easy to be discovered that you have dyed your hair.
Then, the two took out kraft paper from their backpacks and wrapped the books and swords. Especially the books, they would bury them in the ground later and could not be soaked in water.
They found a relatively dry highland and dug a hole to bury the package. They covered it with a messy layer of grass to make it less eye-catching.
Well, the dragon egg was not buried. Danny put it in her backpack and was ready to carry it with her. She wanted to hatch it as soon as possible.
After all, the night was coming, and there was not much time left for her to develop. One more dragon meant one more power.
Then, Dahei and Little White attacked together. The dragon flame burned Valleglia's armor red, but it did not melt.
They used their swords to pick up the helmet, throat armor, plate armor, arm guards and other parts and threw them into the water. "Sizzle …"
After a puff of white smoke, the black armor that used to be dull and smoky became black and gray. It looked like a shoddy product hammered by a third-rate blacksmith on the street.
"Haha, the burning is uneven. There is a color difference." Danny laughed.
"Good to fool people." The knight took off the chain armor excitedly and began to put it on. Danny also went to help.
After this back and forth, it was already past noon. After eating some barbecue, the two climbed on the back of the Megalosaurus again and flew straight to the west.
It was a coincidence. Yuan Kai, Volantis, Reese, Yang Halberd City and the old town were almost at the same latitude. The two dragons only needed to fly straight to the west.
This time, they did not need to cross the dangerous Devil's Avenue. The two dragons' speed was more stable. They glided at about 200 kilometers per hour at an altitude of 6,000 meters.
Two hours later, they left the land and entered the Summer Sea. For several hours, the sea and the sky were the same color as the blue sea.
Around evening, a prosperous island appeared in Dahei's vision. Thousands of sailboats were moored on the sparkling red sea. Danny immediately ordered the two dragons to lower their altitude.
Reese was also a colony of Valleglia. It also had a Tower of Babel for the Megalosaurus to take off and land.
Well, Reese had also joined the allied army and was Danny's enemy.
So …
Danny was a little reluctant to do it. Starting from the dock, there was a beautiful palace-like Passion Garden. Well, it was a place for bed slaves to attract guests. It was commonly known as a brothel.
"Forget it. I'll only rob the nobles of the Tower of Babel. I won't disturb the common people." Little White muttered and landed on the empty platform below.
The black tower in the Golden Roses was 30 meters high. The top platform was 400 square meters, half the size of Maraggio's black tower.
There was no glass dome, and there was no one on the flat ground. Under the dim sky, the two dragons landed lightly. The whole process did not attract anyone's attention.
Whitebeard jumped off the black dragon first. His iron boots made a crisp "bang" sound on the black stone platform.
"Who, who's up there? Hank, did you hear it? There's a sound on the top platform. "
"Let's go and see."
The guard's alert call came from the stairwell.
The old knight acted as if he did not hear it. He pulled out his long sword and shouted to Danny on the white dragon's back in a relaxed tone, "I'll go down first. After cleaning up the enemy, I'll inform His Majesty."
Sure enough, he was used to robbing people.
The first time he robbed the black tower of the Oros Belleris family, the old knight was still hesitant and kept refusing. Now, without Danny's order, he jumped off the black dragon skillfully, skillfully entered the stairwell, and skillfully cleaned up the guards in the palace.
After a while, there were a few screams of the guards before they died. Barristan poked his head out from the stairwell and shouted in a strange tone, "There's an accident. Your Majesty, you have to come and see it in person."
"What accident?" Danny's body tilted, and like a slide, she lightly slid down the white dragon's wings.
This made her feel emotional. She thought back to a year and a half ago, not long after the two little dragons were born. Every morning, she would carry the three little guys in a basket to the wilderness to practice flying.
Every time she threw them up, her movements were so gentle, for fear of breaking their slender and almost transparent wing bones.
Now, the thick carpet-like wings could bear her weight of more than 50 kilograms (including mail armor and backpack).
With complicated thoughts, Danny walked down the stairs and entered a magnificent palace.
The Mier carpet was embroidered with colorful flowers and naked girls. There were two porcelain vases at the door that were as tall as a person. Behind the low couch was a purple wood screen from the Midsummer Islands. The sunset passed through the mosaic glass on the window, projecting the halo of a giant crown in the air …
Compared to the pyramid palace in Slave Bay, the aura of wealth was not to be outdone, and the artistic details were even better.
In such a magnificent palace, the two corpses lying on the carpet were a bit of a killjoy.
What was even more of a killjoy was the three men and one woman kneeling on the carpet. Two delicate naked men, one with golden hair and one with purple hair; a naked woman with long golden hair and milky white skin; and a blue-robed young man who was holding his wrist and moaning softly. At his feet, there was a bright sword and a crossbow that was broken in two.
"What happened?" Danny asked.
"Acquaintances!" Barristan said awkwardly.
