Danny spent half an hour to create an Evil-Suppressing Treasure Chest for Sam and locked the half-dead Deviant Ghost inside.
She toasted a few more times at the banquet, chatted with Kuhulu and the others for a while, then went to the blacksmith to discuss how to improve the Dragon Crystal weapon.
When she went to the harbor to hunt Deviant Ghosts this afternoon, Danny suddenly found a big problem: The guards had Dragon Crystal daggers, short swords, arrows, and spears with wooden handles and Dragon Crystal heads, but they didn't have any "heavy weapons" — — weapons that could be used to attack fiercely and deal great damage, enough to fight Deviant Ghosts head-on.
For example, broadswords and two-handed heavy swords.
Spears were originally considered a "hard dish", but the spear's damage was only at the tip of the spear, which meant that it could only "stab", and the tip of the spear could easily break.
Thus, the efficiency of killing enemies was much lower.
Danny first thought, could she make a spiked mace with Dragon Crystal spikes?
Then she had a flash of inspiration, and a more suitable weapon appeared in her mind. (PS: Actually, this was the idea of a reader friend), Marquaweet.
Marquaweet was a type of sawtooth knife, invented by the Aztecs in America: Using a wooden paddle as the body of the knife, a row of hard and brittle obsidian crystals were embedded in the blade.
Actually, obsidian was volcanic rock, and in this fantasy world, it was the Dragon Crystal.
It could be said that, with the Dragon Crystal, Danny could almost perfectly replicate Marquaweet.
And this weapon was enough to be a "hard dish" even in human wars, stronger and bloodier than many machetes. With one slash, it was common to cut off a person's head or a horse's head.
Danny forged 30 sharp "Dragon Crystal Tiger Teeth" on the spot and embedded them in the one meter long wooden stick, then with a powerful swing, cut off a peach tree as thick as a wrist.
The Dragon Crystal did not break.
"From now on, I'll use …"
Danny thought for a moment, she definitely couldn't use the transliterated name "Marquaweet" anymore.
She couldn't not give it a name, otherwise, after other people used this weapon, they might excitedly name it "Danny's Teeth", "Dragon Queen's Paddle", "Queen's Broadsword" and other embarrassing names.
"This weapon will be called" Dragon Tooth ", I got the idea after observing the Great Guardian of Light eating prey."
Danny shamelessly claimed the right to invent the weapon.
"From now on, we will use the Dragon Tooth as our main weapon, paired with a dagger, and give up on short swords and spears. Yes, the Dragon Fang's teeth could be embedded into the end of a wooden pole to make a spear.
He could even use the spikes of the dragon teeth to make crossbow arrows.
Standardized work, all the dragon teeth were forged into the same Mitsubishi Thorn shape.
Daggers and arrowheads were also standardized, which would speed up the forging process.
We only need to forge the trident, dagger, and arrowhead. As for the wooden sabers, wooden handles, and arrow shafts, we'll leave them to the night watchmen. There are so many iron trees, oak trees, and weirwood beyond the Great Wall. It's much more convenient than on Dragonstone Island. "
Bronn waved the Dragon Tooth Dagger forged by the Queen a few times and reminded, "Your Majesty, the Dragon Tooth Dagger is different from swords and knives. Since you have invented a new weapon, you should have a matching dagger technique to make full use of the weapon."
Danny looked at the mercenary count in surprise and praised his cleverness.
"Very well, I'll leave this matter to you. You can communicate with the night watchmen of the Great Wall and create a new sword technique together. "
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Bronn promised happily.
Before Danny left, the old crab stopped her and said seriously, "Your Majesty, after seeing the deviant ghosts, I have a different opinion about your disaster relief in Hejian County."
"What? Are you afraid that there won't be enough food? "Danny raised her eyebrows.
"Dragonstone Island has 100,000 tons of food, but Dragonstone Island, Crab Island, and Tide Head Island have less than 5,000 households. It's enough for 20 years.
Besides, Tide Head Island and Crab Island already have food. We still have money and can continue to buy food. "The old crab waved his hand.
"Then why?" Danny asked curiously.
"We have to prepare for the worst! A deviant ghost can freeze the sea. If you weren't here, we wouldn't have been able to catch it. So, I'm worried that the Great Wall won't be able to hold, "the old crab said seriously.
"Ha, don't worry, the Great Wall won't collapse. There's an Exorcism Circle under the Great Wall, the deviant ghosts won't be able to come over, "Danny comforted with a smile.
"What if the deviant ghosts swim? Or they freeze the bay and go around the Great Wall? "The old crab said seriously.
"Deviant Ghost King can't be so … shameless, right? That's too wretched. "Danny's tone was uncertain.
Wasn't there a wretched deviant ghost hiding on the rudder this afternoon?
"Of course, I hope that the Great Wall can stop the deviant ghosts, but it's never wrong to prepare for the worst," the old crab insisted.
"Count, you're right!" Danny nodded, the nonchalance on her face disappearing.
Her family's assets were all in Slave's Bay, and she had been thinking about the alliance recently. She was too relaxed about the deviant ghosts and was too optimistic.
"What do you think?" She asked seriously.
"Stabilize the first line of defense, build the second and third lines of defense! Without a doubt, the Great Wall is the first line of defense, and also the most important one.
After today, I'll personally write to the lords and ask them to arrange for knights and soldiers to come to Dragonstone Island with the Dragon Crystal weapons to be transported to Eastwatch.
The Great Wall must be defended with all its might! "The old crab said seriously.
"Didn't I make the same call before?" Danny said.
"It's different this time. Scholar Pylos, Bronn, Kuhulu, and two to three thousand people have seen deviant ghosts. I'll also invite the lords nearby to come to Dragonstone Island to see deviant ghosts before Sam leaves. "
Danny reminded him, "Take it easy, don't break my Demon Suppression Treasure Chest."
"Yes, I'll be careful. The second line of defense is at the Neck, both sides of the Neck are natural strongholds, it'll be a pity to give it up. The third line of defense is the defense of the kingdoms after the deviant ghosts break through to Hejian.
Hejian and Hejian are flat lands, there's no way to defend them, so we can only give it up.
The mountains in the west are everywhere, Casterly Rock City was originally built by digging out the mountains, it can be considered a defensive stronghold. "The old crab paid attention to Dragon Queen's expression and said carefully.
Danny guessed his worries and laughed, "Count Sydega, I only know your magnanimity today, very good! In front of deviant ghosts, personal grudges should be put aside.
Yes, let's put it aside for now.
If I want to take revenge, I'll defeat them in a dignified manner after all the disasters are over, then I'll convene a meeting and judge them in front of all the lords. "
"Your Majesty … is wise!"
The old crab was touched like never before. He was old and had been a wily old fox all his life, but now his eyes were wet.
To be honest, he didn't have much self-awareness, he only wanted to protect his family in the long night.
But the deviant ghosts' brutality was like a bucket of cold water that woke him up: If the long night was not ended and the world was frozen, how could Sydega be protected?
More importantly, the old count suddenly confirmed one thing: Dragon Queen was the main pillar of the long night, she was a savior who didn't need the title of savior.
— — If Danny Rize who had five Megalosaurus, hundreds of thousands of soldiers, God-level magic power, 18 tons of steel, and the reappearance of Valleglia's magic network couldn't save the world, then …
If there were other saviors, they would be stronger than her, but in today's world, who dared to say that they were stronger than her?
Obviously, the world depended on the Dragon Queen to save it.
And he, was the Dragon Queen's' Hand of the Queen '— at least Dragonstone Island was under his control.
As the 'Hand of the Savior', the old crab suddenly had a sense of mission that 'if I don't work hard, how can the world survive'.
"Continue." Looking at the old crab who was moved to tears, Danny felt a little uncomfortable.
"Oh, Riverbend, Royal Territory and Stormlands cannot be defended. Dorne has the Bone Path and Arrin Valley has the Blood Gate, they are all natural barriers.
But Riverbend, Riverbend, Royal Territory and Stormlands cannot be abandoned. There are millions of people, the essence of Westeros is in these four kingdoms.
So, there is a need to build a third line of defense.
The third line of defense is to find a dangerous place and build a man-made stronghold!
Other places can be discussed later, but the Royal Territory is the foundation of Targaryen, you should try your best to protect the civilians and nobles.
My idea is to build a third line of defense for the Royal Territory on Crab Claw Peninsula. "
Danny thought about the complicated terrain of Crab Claw Peninsula and nodded, "You want to use the food from Riverbend as a reward to hire refugees to build fortifications on Crab Claw Peninsula, right?"
"What does Your Majesty think?" The old crab asked expectantly.
"Where do you plan to build a defensive stronghold on Crab Claw Peninsula?" Danny asked.
"Crypt Castle and Whisper Castle are located at the end of the peninsula, at the top of high cliffs. They are very close to Crab Island, Dragonstone Island and Seagull Town in the valley.
The Bren family of Crypt Castle and the Kleb family of Whisper Castle are both loyal to Targaryen. They both accompanied Prince Rega in the final battle of Ruby Beach, and their families also fell during Robert's reign.
It is a pity that Crypt Castle still has a master, but Whisper Castle is almost abandoned. I don't know if the Kleb family still has descendants. "The old crab sighed.
"Then help them repair the castle!" Danny sighed and said, "Count, you will be in charge of this."
After thinking for a while, Danny said, "Also, work with Marwin and choose a few trustworthy alchemists from the batch of alchemists who were working on Tidehead Island. Teach them how to use glass candles to connect to magic networks."
"You plan to send them to different places and communicate with them every day?"
The old crab said excitedly, "You are almost recreating the glory of the Valleglia period!"
"Perhaps we can surpass Valleglia!" Danny said with a faint smile.
Midnight.
Danny rode Blackie to the hill ten kilometers north of Gado.
When she flew over the main road of Valleglia where steel was made, Danny found it funny that torches and bonfires rose from the dark land like stars.
They were all mercenaries, farmers, and merchants who came to look for the Dragon Queen's steel lumps.
Tens of thousands of them spread across the plains and rivers for several kilometers.
There were even bonfires under the hill where Chora and Clinton were hiding.
Eighteen tons of steel. It was too attractive.
"Eh, what's going on?"
Danny landed on the peak of the steep mountain and was surprised to find that there were still piles of steel lumps. Chora and Clinton were guarding by the side, and even Greenie was lying on the ground sleeping.
"Your Majesty, you are back." Chora and Clinton quickly got up to welcome her.
Danny saw anxiety and doubt on their faces.
"Your Majesty, Greenie stopped working after throwing down ten iron lumps in the middle of the night. No matter how we tried to persuade him, he wouldn't listen." Chora complained.
"Greenie, what's going on?" Danny asked in surprise.
Could it be that his rebellious period had arrived?
It shouldn't be, he was only three years old.
Even if he wanted to rebel, would he dare to go against Brother Black Dragon's orders?
"Squeak —" Greenie let out a low cry, his voice filled with grievance and fear.
"Who did you meet?" Danny's expression changed as she asked seriously.
