The sky was vast, and the wilderness was boundless. The northern wind swept across the land, and the bronze grassland rippled with gentle waves.
"Crunch, crunch, crunch …" The wheels rolled over the grass, snapping it and pressing it into the black soil, leaving behind a shallow rut.
This was a huge caravan with more than twenty thousand people. There were mercenaries holding flags, black-clothed slave hunters in a loose formation who laughed without restraint and reeked of blood, and most of them were slaves with numb expressions and tattoos on their faces.
The mercenaries and slave catchers rode on horses, while the slaves led cows and pulled horses. They drove more than a thousand carriages. On the carriages were barley, turnips, cheese, butter, bacon, and other military provisions. There were also tents, dragon-slaying crossbows, swords, and other weapons. There were also carriages with gorgeous curtains, leaving behind the sweet fragrance of cosmetics and the laughter of women.
The procession formed a long black line. Looking down from the sky, it looked like a snake wriggling over the bronze sea.
Suddenly, the grass swaying in the wind trembled slightly, and there was a low rumble of thunder in the distance.
Then, the scout disregarded everything and galloped away from the torrent. He even ignored the reprimands of his superior and charged through the slow moving carriages amidst the cries and curses of the crowd.
His face was contorted as he charged forward with his head covered.
The mercenaries and slave-hunters were puzzled at first, but soon, the earth began to tremble, and the rumbling of thunder came from afar. The black mass of cavalry rushed towards them like a flood.
"Ma … Centaur, the Centaur is coming — — quick, run!"
The mercenaries guarding the caravan threw down their flags and hurriedly fled.
The formation of the slave hunters was even more disorderly. They trampled on their own slaves and attacked the carriages full of goods. It was a mess.
"Kill! Kill everyone with weapons, kill everyone standing on the ground and riding on horses! "Danny raised her black magic sword. Under the effect of Wind Song, her voice resounded throughout the wilderness.
Even though she was shouting loudly, even though she was leading the charge with her sword raised high, there was still no trace of her.
She was still wearing a full set of steel magic armor, but there was a layer of brown silk cloth on the outside of the armor. It looked no different from the Dothraki armor of other centaurs.
At least, the colors were the same. It was very camouflage.
"Kill!" Ma Di rode his big silver horse and took the first kill. He waved his long sword and chopped off half of the head of a mercenary who didn't have a horse.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz." At this time, the centaur released the bowstring and released the arrow.
The clear blue sky dimmed in an instant. The rain of arrows was like a thin layer of silk that covered the sky and earth.
"Ahhhhh —" Slaves, mercenaries, slave hunters, and even the women hiding in the carriages were attacked indiscriminately. Miserable cries filled the air.
After a wave of arrow rain, Ma Di was the first to rush into the caravan. The roaring warriors followed closely behind. They were like a mold that quickly covered the land.
Horse riding, killing, fresh blood, stained grass stalks, blood-soaked black soil, and rolling human heads, as well as the sorrowful eyes on the heads that had died with remaining grievances …
This was the steed of the world.
Behind her, Khalasar covered the entire land. The magic sword in his hand was as sharp as grass.
She attacked like a storm.
Her enemies would tremble in front of her. Her enemies' wives would weep blood and weep in grief.
The bells in her hair sang of his coming, and the Milkmaid who dwelt in the stone tents feared his name.
She was the Khal King of the Sea of Grass.
This was not the first allied army that she had killed.
After half a month of rapid marching, Jhogo led the first ten thousand men close to Raza. Danny, as the Khal King, led ten thousand men to charge at the enemy for the first time.
Her attacks were as fierce as fire. She cut the enemy as if she was cutting grass.
This kind of real killing on horseback did not make her feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, it was very satisfying. After the incident, Danny wondered if she had been controlled by the Targaryen killing gene in her blood and had become a pervert.
But when she thought about her ambition to reform the old world, so be it. There was nothing wrong with being a pervert. At least her will and swordsmanship were honed in the killing.
Her sharpness was revealed and unparalleled.
It was not a bad thing to reach such a state of mind before the final battle.
Danny's two hundred thousand centaurs moved separately. Twenty ten thousand men were like twenty rakes with sharp teeth, combing back and forth on the sea of grass.
Every time they encountered an enemy army, Blackie would carry Danny and her little silver horse and move over. Then, the horse would lead the charge.
In the past half a month, the eastern army of the allied army was completely crippled. The commander-in-chief of the eastern army, Graz 'dan, lost before the final battle and became a general without an army.
To be honest, this had nothing to do with War God Yuan Kai's strategy. There was a traitor in the army. His' east army to west 'plan was known by the Dragon Queen in advance.
The mountain paths and rivers between Raza and Meereen were sealed. If the eastern army wanted to go west and meet up with the western army at Meereen, they could only take a detour and go through the Dothraki Plains.
Then, just like now, the troops that carried out the strategic shift were slaughtered like pigs and sheep by the Khal King.
No one could escape. Now that the sea of grass was filled with Danny's men, where could they escape to?
In just ten days, Danny had killed fifty thousand people and captured eight thousand. It was cruel.
Of the fifty thousand people who died, half were slaves from the Jade Sea.
At first, Danny felt pity for them and wanted to treat them differently. However, the slave hunters were more cruel than she thought. When they saw that they could not escape, they used the slaves as meat shields and formed a human wall to block Danny's charge.
The slaves who were used as meat shields were also more numb than expected. Danny called Blackie over and told them to attack. The Dragon Queen immediately led the centaurs over.
However, the slaves stood there with a sad expression. Some did not know what to do, some cried and begged, but they did not listen, did not move, and did not cooperate. There were even enemies who pretended to be slaves and shouted for Danny to leave. In any case, the Dragon Queen would never admit that the slaves who asked her to leave were real slaves.
Hence, the opening scene: the Khal King charged at the front and the centaurs at the back indiscriminately fired a wave of arrows to let everyone know her determination.
Then, she put away her bow and used her scimitar to finish off the enemies who wore leather armor and held weapons, as well as any slaves who did not kneel on the ground.
It was not that the Alliance did not counterattack. At first, they deliberately used bait to lure her.
For example, a group of horses was advancing on the grassland, and then a group of Pterosaurs carrying kerosene bombs was hiding nearby. When the Dragon Queen attacked the group, the Pterosaurs would attack.
However, Slave Bay now had a Pterosaur army that was evenly matched with the Alliance. This caused the three Megalosaurus, Blackie, Little White, and Little Green, to no longer have to "worry about the city".
Little White and Little Green still had patrol missions, but Blackie was completely free and became an aerial force that could move freely.
With Blackie hovering above Danny's head at all times and her shapeshifting animal companion monitoring the surroundings, who could sneak attack her?
After losing four Pterosaurs, the Alliance became completely honest and did not dare to think of ambushing Ma Di.
.....
On this day, Danny led two groups of ten thousand people close to Giant Snake City. Suddenly, she received a thought, a thought that she had hidden in Dr. Wargrave's mind.
This could only mean one thing: a great writer of a generation had passed away!
Without any warning, the writer who was deeply respected by the world had died.
What was the cause of death?
It was definitely not due to illness and aging. Illness and aging had a process. Just yesterday afternoon, before Danny went to bed, she habitually let the thought write. Using the Great Writer's avatar, she wrote a mid-length fantasy novel about "Dark Princess Kania".
Yes, it was about Princess Kania who lost her country and family. Her country was destroyed and her home was destroyed. She wandered the streets and accidentally saved a Faceless. Then, she took an iron coin and went to the Black and White Academy of Braavos to learn.
Before the article was finished, the Great Writer fell asleep and did not wake up again.
He was assassinated!
Who did it?
Soon, Danny knew the answer: a Faceless.
Dr. Wargrave was once only a little famous in Westeros. Other than the scholars, only intellectuals like Tyrion and Little Finger who loved to read knew of him.
But in the past six months, the old doctor had suffered from dementia. After he recovered, it was as if his brain had been blessed. His literary ideas gushed out like a fountain, and one masterpiece after another appeared.
Now, he had become the "world's number one writer" in the hearts of some playwrights.
How could the sudden death of the number one writer not cause a stir in the world?
The next day, the City of Knowledge issued an official statement: Due to the repeated use of literary works to expose the dark side of the Faceless and criticize the ugliness of the people of Braavos, the Faceless made a move against the respected Dr. Wargrave. They arranged for the Faceless to assassinate him.
The scholars and people of the Seven Kingdoms immediately believed it.
After Marvin passed the news to Danny, she immediately agreed with the City of Knowledge's statement.
The drama lovers across the narrow sea did not have any doubts.
Even the people of Braavos and the Black and White Academy themselves cursed the City of Knowledge for slandering them, but they were secretly happy that the assassination was successful.
Only Erya had doubts.
After the failure of the Templar's assassination, she stayed in the King's Landing for a while, waiting for her body to recover before heading south to the old town.
Cersei had to be killed, but the assassination of her shapeshifter partner had failed, so she only had one last move left: face changing.
But her Reaper's Bible was not complete yet, and she was not 100% sure that she could avoid the hounds of the Red Keep.
And the City of Knowledge was not as well-guarded as the Red Keep, so she could easily retreat if she was discovered.
So she thought, why not practice with the scholars first, increase her experience, and then come back to kill Cersei?
But as soon as she stepped into the old town, she saw the people of the old town filled with righteous indignation, together with the singers and poets on the streets, cursing the Faceless to go to the seventh level of hell.
A great writer of a generation who had just risen was killed tragically, this was a long night in the history of human literature!
"Dr. Wargrave died at the hands of a Faceless a few days ago?" Erya was dumbfounded.
The Black and White Academy would also send multiple Faceless to attack the same target at the same time, but they would always give notice in advance.
Otherwise, there was the possibility that a Faceless intended to replace another Faceless who had changed identities.
Who killed Wargrave?
The mission was completed inexplicably, but Arya did not immediately leave the old town.
While she was gathering information in the tavern, she also heard many operas by the great writer Wargrave, one of which, "Rosie's Dream", caused ripples in the heart of the ice-cold assassin.
The villain in the story was her dear Uncle Jia Kun!
She had to see what Rosie looked like.
