When Danny regained consciousness, she realized that the ship below her was as calm as a flat land without any turbulence.
She blinked her eyes, there was a low wooden ceiling above her head. She was still in the ship, so did the ship stop?
Thinking of this, Danny wanted to get out of bed to take a look, but the moment she moved, she realized that her body was soft as if she was a patient who had just recovered from a long illness.
Am I sick?
Just as this thought appeared in her mind, she recalled the last scene when she woke up: I blew the Dragon Binder, but I didn't follow the Valleglia's method to distort the little dragon's consciousness, and then my vision turned black and my nose bled, and I fainted?
"Hiss —"
Just as she was thinking, three ferocious "snake heads" came over with a hot breath, it was very comfortable.
They were Dahei, Little White and Little Green. The three of them were guarding the bed.
Dan Ni was very happy. Little White and Little Green had really recovered. Their lively golden and emerald eyes looked at her with a sense of closeness.
Danny touched their warm heads, as if it was an illusion, she suddenly felt that she had strength. She struggled to sit up and shouted towards the door, "Jiqi, Ellie, Dolia!"
The three maids had been guarding outside the door, and when they heard Danny's shout, they immediately ran in.
"Kalixi, you're awake!" Ellie was so excited that her eyes were filled with tears.
"Kalixi, do you want to drink water, do you want to eat, it's been four days!" Jiqi rubbed her red eyes and asked.
"Kalixi, we've arrived at Slaver's Bay, we're docked at Aposta Pier!" Dolia was holding a porcelain basin, and gently wiped her face as she said gently.
"Four days, so long?" Danny was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "When I was unconscious, did the centaurs and sailors cause any trouble?"
Dolia understood what she meant, and immediately comforted her, "Your dragon has been guarding by your side, everyone knows that you're only unconscious, it's nothing serious. They were only anxiously waiting for you to wake up, there was no conflict. "
"Kalixi, at that time, your nose, mouth and eyes were bleeding, it looked so scary, we all thought … Wuwuwu …" The centaur girl Jiqi said and started crying.
"Hey, don't cry, I'm fine, I'm fine …"
After washing up, Danny changed into a cheongsam and walked out with the help of a maid. She comforted Chora and the others.
"That Dragon's Horn is really a magic tool. Your Highness, please don't try it again in the future." They had not seen each other for a few days. Not only was Jorah's beard unshaven, but he also looked dispirited. Even the handsome old man, Whitebeard, looked tired, and his snow-white beard was stained with brown stains.
"What about the Dragon Binder?" Danny was noncommittal.
"Put it in the basement, you —" Chora was anxious to persuade him.
She waved her hand and said with a smile, "I'm not stupid. I just want to ask if the horn is damaged."
"Damaged?" He was puzzled. "Why would it be damaged? It's made from dragon horns and Valleglia's steel hoops. Even a hammer won't break it, right? "
That might not be the case, she did not use the correct method to remove the restraints on the Horn. The series of lightning runes was most likely a sign of the internal structure collapsing.
Moreover, when Danny woke up and tried to enter the Dragon Spirit state to recover her body, she unexpectedly found a series of golden-red lightning runes in her sea of consciousness.
Even though it was her first time seeing it, she knew that it was most likely a witchcraft rune from the Dragon's Horn.
Danny wanted to try if she had the ability to use witchcraft, but her rationality told her that it was best for her to recover in her current state.
"When did we reach Aposta?" Danny looked at the tall red pyramids in the distance that looked like the tombs of gods. She was filled with emotions. Such a great civilization had fallen to the point where slave trade was the main economy.
How advanced was the technology used to make the pyramids?
Even at the beginning of the 21st century, scientists were still unable to determine how the ancient Egyptians made them. Many even suspected that an alien civilization had interfered.
It was because the knowledge involved in architecture, geometry, dynamics, and astrology was too profound.
Although the Gugis Empire was destroyed by Valleglia, the Gugis could still build pyramids that were 200 meters high. It was said that the Great Pyramid of Meereen was 210 meters high.
"We arrived at noon yesterday, and the customs officials of Aposta came to ask us what slaves we needed," Chola replied.
Danny asked him to inform the slave owner of Aposta that she wanted to buy the Unsullied.
She rested on the ship for two days before setting foot on the dock for the first time.
Aposta was located at the mouth of the Worm River. Starting from the old and dilapidated dock, the broken streets, the heavily weathered city walls, and the pyramids in the city were all red.
Danny looked at it and felt a little familiar, because the Gugis in Aposta used fired red bricks. There was a brick factory near her hometown that also fired red bricks. Every household in the village used red bricks to build walls.
In Aposta, the dock was stacked with red bricks, the streets were paved with red bricks, and the pyramids were covered with a thick layer of red bricks. The whole place was red with a rustic flavor.
However, all the buildings were too old, and the red bricks had begun to be weathered on a large scale. A gust of wind blew, bringing a red dust storm.
The fine red dust easily stung the eyes and made it difficult to breathe. The women of Aposta all covered their faces with veils when they went out.
They set off at around seven in the morning. For safety reasons, Danny did not ride her own little silver horse, but sat in a wide ox cart that Chola had bought for her in advance.
Cuero, Aggo, and Bevois stayed on the ship to guard the dragon. When they arrived at Slave Bay, Danny did not dare to let the dragon out to hunt.
She was afraid that some people would try to get the good name of "dragon slayer," so even Blackie was chained.
Danny did not let the maids follow her, and sat opposite her was Whitebeard.
Chola had been wearing the dazzling Valleglia steel armor every day since he got it.
Dressed in armor, he could only guard the ox cart with Jogo and Rakarlo on horseback.
Early in the morning, the wharf was completely deserted. The wooden wheels of the ox-cart made "clack clack clack" sounds on the uneven red brick road. Mixed with the sound of the horse's hooves, it actually brought about a burst of echoes.
"Aren't the Gith people too lazy? The sun has been up for more than an hour, and they still don't come out to work. "Danny looked out the window, puzzled.
"Most people come here to buy Unsullied. Merchant ships rarely come here, and without commercial trade, there is no need for dock workers and peddlers. Who can the Gith people work for?" Chola replied.
"Oh, so that's how it is."
"Your Highness, your face." Whitebeard had been staring at Dani's tender and smooth face, which was like a freshly peeled eggshell. He was very surprised and hesitated several times. Now he finally found a chance to ask, "I remember there was a dark red scab yesterday."
"Hehehe, I'm meeting guests today!" Danny happily stroked her smooth and delicate skin and said with a smile, "In order to quickly heal my injuries, I roasted a fire in the middle of the night last night. Fortunately, we're close to the shore, otherwise there wouldn't be so much firewood."
"Roasted a fire?" The old man was even more confused.
"Roast it on the fire, like stewing sweet potatoes." Danny said.
"But wasn't your face burned by the fire?" Whitebeard was shocked.
"It was burned by dragon flames. Ordinary flames don't harm me." Danny corrected.
"Ah, you'll understand when I find a chance to show it to you." She touched her face and said something the old man did not understand at all. "High temperature can speed up blood circulation and accelerate metabolism. It can also disinfect, remove mites, remove dead skin, burn oil, slimmer face, tighten skin … There are many benefits!"
"Mou Ang —" A loud cry rang out from the window. Danny opened the curtain and saw an elephant carrying a lattice box slowly passing by. In front of it, there was a Gith with black and red hair standing up to the sky holding the reins.
Walking out of the dock and into the street by the coast, she finally began to see the breath of life.
"Is that Targaryen Queen of the Sea of Sunset?" A stiff common language came from the intersection in front of her.
Then there was a rush of "Tut Tut Tut". A dozen horses galloped over, bringing red dust with them. Danny could not help but put down the curtain.
"This is Khaleesi of the Great Prairie, the Guardian of the Seven Kingdoms, the Great Mother Of Dragons, the Queen of the Ancestors, the Andals, and the Neuenar, Her Majesty Danny Rize." Jorah took a step forward and shouted to the approaching knights.
The cavalrymen had amber-colored skin and wore embroidered linen shirts, pleated skirts, and leather sandals.
Their shoulders were draped with yellow silk cloaks. Many shiny copper plates were sewn on the cloaks, reflecting countless small suns under the scorching sun.
These Aposta knights did not wear helmets, nor could they wear helmets. They followed the traditions of the Gith, with their red and black hair standing up with oil and coiled into all kinds of strange shapes. There were horns, wings, blades, and even grasping hands …
It was strange, without the slightest sense of beauty. Instead, it looked like the horns of an evil spirit that crawled out of hell.
"The Good Lord asked us to pick you up at the dock. I didn't expect you to come so early," the leader said casually.
As he spoke, he stuck his head out, trying to see Danny's appearance through the gaps in the curtains.
Danny was a little angry when she saw him being so rude, but she did not flare up. She just made a mental note and opened the curtain to let him see as much as he wanted.
Who would have thought that the guy muttered in Valleglia, "There are no dragons!"
Damn it, if you had a stunned expression and said a few more words of praise, I would have forgiven you immediately, but now …
"Which Good Lord asked you to pick me up?" Danny asked with a smile without changing her expression.
"Didn't you want to buy the Unsullied? Of course it's Krazni mo Nakroz, Good Lord, "the knight said.
There were three main slave cities on the east coast of Slave Bay. Aposta, which dealt in the Unsullied, Kaiyuan, which trained bed slaves, and Meereen, which sold technical slaves and elite gladiators on a large scale.
They were clearly doing the most heinous evil in the world, but the slave masters still gave themselves shameless names: the great slave master of Aposta was called "Good Lord," the old madams of Kaiyuan were called "Good Lord," and the master of Meereen's slave gladiators was called "Great Lord."
The Gith people thought that cutting off other people's chirps was good, that being proficient in the seven Spring Cries was good, and that making humans fight like wild beasts was great?
"Here we are, this is the Pride Square."
The Gith knight brought Danny and the others to a wide square. The carriage stopped, and they walked down and looked around. They found that the square was a hundred meters long and wide, and there was a huge fountain in the middle.
The fountain was also made of red bricks. It was a circular pool of about 40 square meters. In the middle of the pool, there was a bronze statue of a harpy that was 6 meters tall. It had a beautiful woman's face, gold-plated long curly hair, and ivory inlaid eyes and teeth. It didn't have arms, but it had a pair of bat wings and eagle legs. There was a heavy chain hanging from its claws, and a curled and vicious scorpion tail dragging behind it.
Yellow spring water with a faint sulfuric smell gushed out from the harpy's bulging chest, bringing a cool breeze to the scorching square.
The harpy was the god that the Gith people believed in, and the last emblem of their people.
