Danny took a deep look and said seriously, "If Cahor City is under the control of the barbarian Sai Gong, then I can guess what happened there."
His face was so gloomy that it looked like it was about to drip water.
He had almost guessed it too.
Lord Eel looked at the Dragon Queen and then at the King of the Northern Region. He asked in confusion, "If he didn't defeat the Other Ghosts, then what did Sai Gong do?"
Danny turned to him. "Does Sai Gong have a son?"
Jon said, "Reah was pregnant when we were at the Great Wall. Looking at the time, it's about time she gave birth."
"What does it have to do with Sai Gon's son …" Lord Eel suddenly thought of the Deviant Ghost's origin, and the blood on his fat face instantly drained. It was as pale as a dead fish's face.
"Ghouls are resurrected from human corpses, but Other Ghosts are transformed from human babies. Speaking of which, the enemies of this catastrophe are all humans …"
Jon gave a bitter and awkward smile. "How ironic! We were still thinking of how to protect the Northern Region and all of humanity, but someone surrendered to the Other Ghosts without any resistance. "
"I'm afraid they had no choice. Which normal person would be willing to sacrifice their son to the Other Ghosts?"
Danny thought of Hearthstone, which was almost wiped out, and understood Cahor City's choice.
Of course, understanding didn't mean support.
"We should give Cahor City a —"
Danny's expression was firm, and she was about to suggest that the person in charge of Cahor City be executed, but she stopped halfway.
Because she saw the flickering eyes of the Northern Region's nobles.
It was a strange expression that was a mixture of joy, relief, and shame.
"You're not planning to follow suit, are you?"
Dani's gaze was like lightning. She looked around coldly and directly exposed their little thoughts that had just sprouted.
"No, no!" All the counts said at the same time. They looked at each other, and the atmosphere in the room became even more awkward.
"It's best if you don't have such a stupid idea. Humans and Other Ghosts can't coexist. There's no way out."
"Your Majesty, you misunderstand. We swear to fight the Other Ghosts to the end!" The counts patted their chests and promised loudly.
.....
In the guest room on the second floor of the castle, Danny stood on the balcony and watched the Northern Region's nobles whispering to each other as they left the training ground. She said calmly, "Your subordinates are unreliable."
Jon's face twisted into a big chrysanthemum. "Perhaps, this is a good thing."
Dani suddenly turned around and raised her voice. "Good news? Have the Other Ghosts eaten your brain? "
"Your Majesty, I've been thinking about a problem recently." He lowered his eyelids to cover his dark eyes. "During the last Long Night, there was no Great Wall, no Night Watchmen, no Winterfell, no unified Seven Kingdoms, and even Stark was only one of the Northern Territory's vassals.
........ How did the Westeros survive a generation?
The situation of the Seven Kingdoms was bad enough, but the last time could only be worse. This time, Fireplace Castle, which was considered above average among the human castles, could not even last two hours. How did so many nobles survive the last time?
The Seven Kingdoms had many nobles with eight thousand years of history, such as Stark, Lannister, Bolton, Green Hand … hundreds of nobles. Their family history was as long as the history of the Westeros.
The question was, how did they survive the last Long Night?
Why did they close the castle gates?
Was Fireplace Castle open to thieves?
The truth of history was so cruel that it made Danny shudder.
"Yasuer and Yahai forged the sword to kill the Other Ghosts. Every time they failed, they were chased by the Other Ghosts riding Ice Spiders like dogs.
He failed countless times and escaped death countless times. In the end, the people he saved hid in the castle to worship the Other Ghosts? "
Danny laughed absurdly. "When the Long Night ended, the hero did not become king. Instead, he was chased out of the world he saved and returned to the dark and wild east to continue fighting the monsters in the shadows.
When everything was over and the world was at peace, the magical power that saved the world was envied, rejected, and destroyed by the humans.
The shapeshifters became monsters, and the witches were captured and burned by the nobles. Then they dreamed of building a 'real world.'
Now that the Long Night has come again, the cowardice and wretchedness engraved in their genes caused the nobles to immediately awaken the 'advanced survival experience of their ancestors.' They closed their doors again, sacrificing their own flesh and blood to the Other Ghosts while waiting for the next savior to come.
Perhaps, when the food in their houses ran out, they would still hide by the dark fireplace, banging on the empty iron pot and loudly cursing the savior for not being strong enough to end the Long Night before he finished the bread? "
Jon's expression changed. He looked worriedly at the Dragon Queen and said meaningfully, "Perhaps, the hero does not care about the thoughts of the people he saved. He is a hero because he was born great."
The Great Battle of Winterfell is imminent. Heroine, you cannot be angered by the depraved actions of the nobles and become evil!
We are still relying on you to save our lives!
Awkward was extremely worried.
Danny smiled. "Do you think Stannis was born great? He is the first hero of this Long Night! "
Awkward's mouth twitched. "Heroes also need to be spurred and encouraged. Why don't Your Majesty go to the valley and encourage him?"
"I cannot go." Danny refused.
"Why?" Awkward asked with a face full of embarrassment.
"If I go to him in such a hurry, it will give the impression that I have ulterior motives and am pulling him to fill the hole. It is not good."
Are you not pulling him to fill the hole?
Jon said with a straight face, "Then arrange for a Pterosaur to send me to the valley!"
Regardless of whether the Dragon Queen was pulling Erlu to fill the hole or not, he would definitely hope that the savior would fill the unprecedented hole in Winterfell.
Because the Dragon Queen clearly did not want to be a "hero".
.....
In the end, Jon did not get to sit on the Pterosaur that Danny arranged.
When Sansa found out that Jon was going to the valley, she immediately said in high spirits that she also needed to go to the valley and could send Jon off.
Not only her and Jon, but even Ricken and the furry dog were brought to the valley.
"Robert is sick. I will send Ricken to accompany him." Sansa said to Awkward's confusion.
Robert Arryn and Ricken Stark were cousins and were about the same age, so it was reasonable for them to be playmates.
Danny left with the three of them, but she was not going to the valley.
"I want to tell you, to tell everyone, that humans and Deviants cannot coexist. Everyone has to make a choice. It is either black or white. Once you make a choice, you must bear the consequences of your choice!"
Under the gloomy gazes of the nobles, the Dragon Queen led the forty Pterosaurs and took off, heading towards Kahold City, which was fifteen hundred kilometers to the northeast.
When they reached Kahold City, it was around eight in the evening.
However, the long night had arrived. A hazy white light could still be seen in the South during the day, but in the North, day and night were blurred.
There was no difference between eight in the evening and eight in the morning.
Alright, there was still a difference. At this moment, the castle below had completely fallen into darkness. The people in the castle had entered a deep slumber. Only the seven or eight watchtowers on the castle walls spilled out a dim red light.
"Whoosh —" The howling northern wind in the sky seemed to be more violent, but it only blew for a while.
Without the watchtower guards noticing at all, forty Unsullied in sky-blue fur cloaks and silver-white armor lined up neatly in the training ground in front of the castle.
"Boom —" Dragon flames spewed out, and the sky was instantly lit up.
"Ah, what's that?"
"Woo woo woo —"
The watchtower guards were alarmed. The horn sounded, and the sleeping castle was awakened.
"Megalosaurus, it's Megalosaurus, Dragon Queen is here!" As the dragon flames entangled into a basin-sized incandescent fireball, the people in the castle finally saw the black shadows in the sky — three Megalosaurus and the armored female knight on the back of the Black Dragon.
"Hiss —" Blackie roared and roared, "Winterfell received a request for help from Kahold City. Where is Saigon Thurn? Where is Scholar Dali? "
"Your Majesty, I am Saigon!" Immediately, someone stood on the balcony of the third floor of the castle and shouted.
"Ah —" Everyone exclaimed. A pair of huge fire wings popped out from behind the Dragon Queen. She leaped, and like a feather, she lightly glided down from a height of five hundred meters.
There was a huge fireball floating above her head.
Seeing this incredible scene, all the Thane guards who were holding their swords and crossbows loosened their grip in dejection.
They once again recalled the fear of being dominated by the Dragon Queen under the Great Wall.
Even Saigon did not put on the airs of the Earl of Kahold City. He quickly put on his armor before the Dragon Queen landed in the formation of the Unsullied, and trotted out of the castle with a dozen guards.
"Your Majesty, thank you for coming to the aid of Kahold City." Thurn walked in front of the Dragon Queen, knelt on one knee, and performed a standard knight salute.
He was a short and thin young man with long and narrow gray eyes and a receding hairline. He was wearing bronze shin guards and a leather shirt with bronze scales.
Danny looked at him and tried hard to recall, but she could not remember the appearance of Si Di, whom she had killed.
Before coming, she had inquired about Saigon's background and knew that she had killed his father, Si Di.
However, Danny did not remember this at all.
"Saigon, where are the deviant ghosts?" Danny did not ask him to get up and only asked coldly.
"Your Majesty, the deviant ghosts have retreated." Saigon looked down and said.
"I'm afraid not." Danny shook her head and stepped forward. She sneered. "They did not enter the city, but they have entered your heart."
"Whoosh —" Saigon's expression changed. The Thurn guards behind him gripped their sword hilts in unison.
"Haha …" Danny did not seem to notice and took another step forward arrogantly.
"Your Majesty, I have no choice!" Saigon's expression changed a few times. He waved his hand behind him to stop his subordinates' stupid actions and knelt on one knee to plead guilty.
"The messenger crow left for less than 15 minutes, and the deviant ghosts had already climbed up the city wall. Just like you, they walked to the door of my castle.
There were a total of 10 deviant ghosts riding ice spiders. They climbed over the walls and fences as if they were walking on flat ground. I could not stop them at all! "
In the end, the newly promoted Earl's voice was choked with sobs.
"They asked me for my child. If I refused, the entire castle and more than 10,000 townspeople under the castle would be slaughtered. I would not be able to keep my child. I had no choice …"
"You're lying." Danny pulled out the huge sword on her back and pressed the cold blade against Saigon's neck. "Fireplace Castle has been massacred by deviant ghosts. Do they know that Amber's family does not have a baby, but yours does?"
"I —" Saigon dared to quibble, but when he looked up, his vision blurred. He seemed to see a Megalosaurus flying out from the purple eye behind the Queen of Knights' mask. The endless pressure almost made him collapse to the ground.
He hurriedly lowered his head and begged for mercy while trembling, "Your Majesty, please spare my life. I, I … I had no choice. The ghouls were endless, and all my clansmen were in the castle. I had to save them!"
