Mansred survived, and Erlu was moved by Dani's suggestion of "using the emperor to command his vassals". He decided to leave the King of Beyond the Great Wall to command his vassals.
After the trial.
On the sixth floor of the King's Tower, by the fireplace in the Dragon Queen's parlor.
"It's no use. The freemen of Beyond the Wall will not listen to a king who has been captured by the southern lords." Manslade looked at the baby in his arms lovingly and spoke to Danny without looking up.
He was now partially free. With two Night's Watchmen watching over him, he could move freely in Dark Castle.
For the past few days, Manslade's son, wife Dana, and sister-in-law Val were all living in the King's Tower. Once he was free, he immediately came to see his wife and child.
Danny smiled faintly. "I know. I just wanted to find an excuse to let you live. Your wife just gave birth. How pitiful it is to lose your father.
Of course, I didn't just save you out of pity.
I will be leaving the Wall soon. There are still many troublesome matters waiting for me in Ursos. I will leave the task of moving the freemen to Eastwatch to you.
As long as you are still the King of Beyond the Wall, you must fulfill your duty. Let the freemen live through this long night. "
Mansred gently pulled the fur quilt to cover his son's soft cheeks. The kind and peaceful expression on his face disappeared as he solemnly said, "I'm happy to see the freedmen cross the sea and leave the Great Wall. I can even send someone to the Haunted Forest in my name to help you recruit freedmen.
But will Stannis allow me to travel between Dark Castle and Eastwatch?
Or perhaps, if he plans to take the freedmen for his own use, would he be willing to let you smoothly take over the freedmen? "
"Stannis …" Danny frowned in thought. "He's not stupid. He should know that the Wall can't feed a hundred thousand freemen.
In fact, it can't even feed ten thousand. The food stored by the Night's Watchmen won't last long, and his army depends on the supplies of the Night's Watchmen. For his own sake, he has to send the freemen away as soon as possible. "
"Why didn't you just kill him?" Wa 'er suddenly asked.
"Why kill him?" Dani asked curiously.
Wa 'er looked at her and said, "He and his brothers stole your father's throne, and now they plan to continue fighting with you for the throne of the Seven Kingdoms.
Moreover, the sword in his hand suits you very well. Perhaps you are the Child of Prophecy and need that red sword.
If it were me, I would have let the Megalosaurus eat him for any of the above reasons. "
"Once you understand the cause of the War of the Usurpers, you will understand that the sins my father and elder brother committed are far greater than the Stannis brothers.
As for the Red Sword, there are many things in this world that can catch my eye. I won't just snatch whatever I want. Most of the time, I have to follow the rules. "
Wa 'er was startled, and he gradually fell into deep thought.
"Knock knock …" Barristan came over with two canvas bags. Before he entered, he knocked on the iron door a few times to remind the people in the house.
"Your Majesty, the luggage is ready." White Knight said.
"Leaving tonight? Isn't that too soon? "Mansred said in surprise.
Danny stood up and took her bag from White Knight. She checked the contents while saying, "I have nothing to do at the Great Wall, but a tough battle awaits me at Braavos."
Dark Star Geralt Dane was about to arrive at Braavos.
Last night, after she used the True Dragon's Roar to "cleanse" Qui Xi's soul, she even talked to her about the Green Prophet and the Old Gods through the glass candle.
Qui Xi's suggestion was simple. Leave the Westeros and train hard.
She believed that the Great Wizard's meditation technique was not inferior to the Green Prophet's. Danny fell for the Three-Eyed Crow's trick because her skills and experience were not as deep as his.
Danny had just learned her meditation technique a month ago, while the Blood Crow not only had the complete Green Prophet's legacy, but also cultivated for a hundred years. He also inherited the magic power, mental strength, and experience of the Green Prophet over ten thousand years. It was normal for there to be a difference between the two.
According to Qui Xi's idea, with Danny's talent, she should train hard for eight to ten years. Then, she would have the power to protect herself from the Green Prophet without relying on the Megalosaurus.
After that, Danny habitually checked the three coordinates she had marked and a "netizen".
The netizen, Marvin, had brought along "Magic Net", "Analysis of the Structure of Witchcraft Lens" and other magic books. He had joined the fleet led by the Fourth White Knight, Garth Hyder, together with the little black girl, Larissa.
These secret books hidden in the library were "borrowed" from the City of Knowledge by the old man in Old Town.
The fleet was huge. The old man in Old Town spent a lot of money. More than a hundred cargo ships, ten warships, and three million gold royals in cash set off from the port of Old Town. At this time, they were floating in the Summer Sea in the south of Westeros.
Coordinate one, in three or four days, Geralt's merchant ship would arrive at the port of Braavos.
Coordinate two, Dragon Queen's filial son, Jia Kun, had already escaped from the City of Knowledge with the clay pot.
Danny did not directly report him.
In fact, except for Barristan and Yimont, she did not tell anyone about Faceless Jia Kun.
She only asked the old man to borrow books from the library, killing two birds with one stone. Among the books that the old man reported to the doctor in the City of Knowledge, one of them was stolen by Jia Kun.
The doctor in the City of Knowledge was not stupid. When he found that a large number of books related to dragons were missing, but the door and lock were not broken, he naturally began to investigate the thief.
The key was in the hands of Doctor Wargrave, and the doctor was an idiot. The apprentice who had served the doctor would definitely be suspected.
How would Jia Kun, who was disguised as Pater, dare to be interrogated by the City of Knowledge?
Looking at the apprentice Zion who stole the doctor's waffles, he was punished by the scholars just for stealing food. It was clear that the scholars would not be "gentlemen use their words and not their fists". They would definitely lynch "Pater".
Jia Kun, who had a human skin mask on his face, dared to be slapped?
Faceless stabbed the two scholars who arrested him to death on the spot and escaped as "Pater".
Although Jia Kun hoped to create the illusion that the apprentice stole books to sell for money, the doctors in the City of Knowledge were not stupid, and their brains were very good. They immediately speculated two things from Pater's recent changes: Faceless came to the City of Knowledge to steal books related to dragons, and the people of Braavos planned to hatch dragons!
Then, the doctors went crazy. They decided to use the Dragon Queen's method to give the shameless people of Braavos and the despicable Faceless a retribution …
Coordinate three, the one-eyed woman Faceless went to Volantis.
Danny's worried guess was confirmed. The House of Black and White in Braavos was not the only stronghold of the Faceless. There was also a Faceless branch in Volantis.
On the surface, it was a trading company. In fact, it was a small gathering place of assassins and information dealers. But the two identities were a cover to hide the fact that it was a Faceless stronghold.
In fact, it was understandable, just like the assassins in the movies. Every top assassin had a top manager who helped him to take missions, gather information, provide equipment, arrange itineraries … Uh, when necessary, they would betray their brothers, kill them to silence them, burn the bridge after crossing the river, and embezzle the savings of the assassin's companions.
The world of the Song of Ice and Fire was so big, and the information exchange was so primitive. Without the "branch" to help gather information, arrange trifles, and provide the list and information of replaceable people, even the top Faceless like Rambo, 007, and Tom Cruise would not be able to complete the assassination mission.
In fact, 007 and "Mission Impossible" both had a huge team behind them.
So, it was troublesome.
Danny could not make a meteorite fall on the House of Black and White, or use God's Cane. It was easy to flatten the House of Black and White, but cutting the grass without removing the roots, the trouble would be too big.
She still did not dare to go to the prairie to pick up her cheap son. Why?
Because she was afraid of assassination.
Not only the Faceless, it was too easy to kill a child, and that child had hindered the interests of too many people …
It was difficult for the Faceless to kill Danny, but it was too easy for them to kill her companions. Now that they had not fallen out, everyone was fighting openly and secretly within the rules. If Danny dared to bomb the House of Black and White, a group of Faceless would take revenge on her the next day.
As long as they killed Dragon Queen, officers above the level of centurion, and officials above the level of village chief, Slave Bay would collapse.
Of course, if they really left the Dragon Queen alone, she would also ride on the dragon to burn the city. Everyone would play Game Over, and let the Other Ghosts take advantage of the situation.
Danny definitely had to deal with the Faceless, but she could not do it recklessly. She had to be smart.
And she also had some ideas about how to deal with the Faceless …
Just as she was thinking about it, Barristan put down his backpack and said worriedly, "Actually, we should not leave the Great Wall. The right thing to do is to hurry up and clean up the Other Ghosts outside the Great Wall.
If there is a King of the Other Ghosts, we should kill him directly and end the long night before it comes.
When winter comes, as the weather gets colder and colder, the Other Ghosts' strength will increase, and it will be more difficult to deal with them. "
Danny was stunned and smiled faintly. "That's a good idea, but unfortunately, the Other Ghosts are intelligent. What you know, they know even better.
Before the long night, the Other Ghosts will not come out to fight us head-on, and they will even deliberately avoid places that are directly hit by the sun.
Believe it or not, even if I go to Slave Bay and bring the other two dragons here, the four of them will work together and burn the entire Ghost Shadow Forest, and we will not be able to find a single Other Ghost, let alone hurt them. "
Mansred handed the baby to his sister-in-law and said worriedly, "Then do you have a way to deal with it? “
Danny sighed helplessly and said, "Don't think about taking the initiative to attack. When the long night comes, wait for the Other Ghosts to take the initiative to attack, and then rely on the Great Wall to fight a defensive battle. This is the most practical and has the highest chance of winning.
Think about it, if I ride a dragon to burn the forest outside the Great Wall, and accidentally get killed by the Other Ghosts' ice swords, and then the Other Ghosts resurrect a Megalosaurus into a Corpse Ghost Dragon.
What will the consequences be? "
"Uh, it can't be, right? You burned a large part of the forest last time, but the Other Ghosts did not pose any threat to the Megalosaurus. "Barristan said.
Why not?
I have seen the finale of Game of Thrones!
Danny complained in her heart, but said, "How can one not wet his shoes if he often walks by the river? The Ghost Shadow Forest is hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, and I will have to burn it for a year or two? At that time, the nerves of humans and dragons will be numb, how can they avoid all the ice swords? "
"Can a dragon also become a Corpse Ghost? Dragons are fire, and Other Ghosts are ice. Ice and fire do not mix! "Mansred doubted.
"Dragons are also living creatures. They can die, and after they die, they will also leave behind a corpse. If the Other Ghosts really have a Corpse Ghost Dragon, they might just blow down the Great Wall with a mouthful of dragon flames. Then we will have no place to cry. "Danny began to reveal the truth with a strange expression.
"Just like the Horn of Winter, can your dragon burn down the Great Wall?" Wale asked in surprise.
"Sigh, if there were no Other Ghosts, I would really want to try." Suddenly, Danny's expression changed. She looked at Mansred and asked, "Stannis seized a huge horn from you. Is it the real Horn of Winter?"
