Hundreds of thousands of armies were defeated, fearing dragons and guns, and were not formally attacked by Arthur and the Dragon Queen, but the trading city-states of Braavos, Norfoss, Kohor, and Rollas, as well as the cities of Mataris, and Slave Bay, were in constant fear.

With the advent of trains and the construction of railroads, Arthur and the Dragon Queen began to expand.

Overnight, Varantis was controlled by the Church of Lahlo.

Their Tiger Robe Army is basically the second Sacred Fire Hand Warrior Order, a high-ranking nobleman with the ancient bloodline of Valyria, but they have not awakened the power of the transcendent bloodline, and there are not many powerful transcendents, who died at the hands of slaves before they reacted.

Arthur's expansion in the southern part of the free city-state would not be hindered, and continued eastward might be met with resistance from the Guise.

But the three cities of Meereen, Yuankai, and Astapor could only be beaten.

However, after taking over Valantis, Arthur did not continue to expand eastward, but went to the homeland of Loyna to rebuild the ruins and heal the stone people, a decision that stunned all the enemies who followed his movements.

The cities of Braavos, Norvers, Cohor, Rollas, and Slave Bay all hoped that the prince would be infected with the Grey Scale Disease and die in the misty land of Royna.

However.

They are doomed to disappointment.

With the news of the success of the treatment of gray scale, it became clear to everyone that the prince wanted to establish new cities and palaces in the homeland of Royna, the center of the nine free trade city-states, and establish an empire to rule the western part of Essos......

The dragon queen Daenerys expands to the north of Mill.

With Pantos in control, Braavos, Norvos, Kohor, and Loras had no military force to fight the dragons, and she managed to lay the railroad over the ground with great ease.

The flat land was once the southern frontier of the ancient Andal kingdom.

The kingdom of Andal, like the Leuna, perished at the hands of the dragons of the Valyrian Fortress of Freedom.

The kingdom is known as Andas, the home of all the Andals, and is located south of Braavos, east of the Narrow Sea, west of the Norfos hills, and north of the flatlands, and is also the earliest origin of the Seven Gods faith.

Godric, Salazar, Rowena, and Helga are going to establish an academy of magic.

Halfway through, he was separated from the Dragon Queen, who was advancing the expansion.

Among the transcendents who accompanied him, in addition to Malwyn and Jon, they also brought Mars and Mikal, the former archbishops of the Church of the Seven and the former commander of the Battle of the Warriors.

Entering Andas, Mars and Mikal have mixed feelings.

The Church of the Seven lost the battle of faith in Westeros.

The faith of the seven gods, like the Andal Kingdom, is about to die out under the powerful force.

And they.

There is nothing that can be done about it......

Because the Lord of Light has appeared many times and performed miracles in the world, everyone in the world knows that the true God is not ethereal, and even not far away from them!

The Valantis affair made Braavos wary of the Church of Lachlo.

Isle of the Gods.

Most churches have no miracles from gods.

Because of fear and jealousy, and Braavos secretly fueled the trouble.

The Moon Chanter of the Moon Chanter Temple contacted the Black and White Courtyard, as well as the Black Goat, the Goddess of Love*|Desire*|, the Three Gods, the Holy Grace Cult and other temples to reach an agreement, and began to exclude the priests and monks of the Lahlo Church, and launched a covert surveillance.

The remnants of the Cult of the Seven on the Isle of the Gods were even more funded and instigated by Braavos, as well as Westeros's hatred of extermination, and voluntarily turned into a knife and frantically attacked the Church of Lachlo.

It's just a pity.

There is no divine protection, no transcendent existence.

The Cult's remaining monks, fanatics, and sons of warriors on the Isle of the Gods were all reduced to ashes in the flames.

When all the priests of the Isle of the Gods saw this, they all felt desolation.

And.

The Lord of Light wanted the faith of Westeros, and the Church of Lahllo launched a war of faith, destroying the Church of the Seven Gods, as well as the Seven Gods who performed miracles!

Because of the powerful Child of Light and the Dragon Queen.

It is highly likely that the Church of Lahlo will become the only religion of the nine free trade city-states in the future, and even the empire established by the Children of Light and the Dragon Queen will have no problem becoming the state religion.

Isotopic religion.

The clergy know religion very well.

At that time, the Church of Lachlo would have absolutely no room for other faiths and churches.

The priests such as the Moon Chanter, who have no strength and are full of fear, just reject and secretly see the Red God Priest and the red-robed monk, and dare not make any excessive moves.

The God of a Thousand Faces is the god of death and has many different incarnations in the world.

For it has been said that the Lord of Light is the side of the God of a Thousand Faces.

Hearing this, the priests and monks of the Lahlo church were immediately enraged by this remark and considered it an insult and blasphemy, and immediately went to the House of Black and White to ask the priest of the God of a Thousand Faces to explain it to the world.

However.

The Faceless One will only kill and fail.

Won't explain!

Repeated attempts to no avail of such rumors spread even further, and the priests and monks of the Lahlo Church could no longer remain calm and wanted to use force against the Faceless One.

The present life of the Lord of Light.

Gave all the Red God Priests and Red-robed Monks their powers.

As long as they believe in the Supreme God, they can easily cast the Flame Divine Technique and learn the various spells collected by the Church.

But......

The Faceless One is a killer!

Even if you don't have any magic or magic.

As a super killer, the Faceless Man still has superb killing skills, and he is basically experienced in a hundred battles, and many of them have even broken through the limits in battle to become transcendent!

Ordinary warriors are transcendental.

There must be no way to deal with the magic-casting transcendents, let alone the priests and monks who have mastered divine arts and have the protection of the gods?

But.

The Faceless One breaks through the limits, not to become a warrior transcendent!

It's about becoming an Assassin Transcendent!

For killing, they don't roar and charge, wielding swords in frontal combat!

Poisoning, cold arrows, traps, provocations, disguised assassinations, surprise assassinations, and all other murderous purposes, no matter how despicable, shameless, and weird, as long as they are effective and invincible, the Faceless One will use them!

The Lord of Light could not protect ordinary priests and monks all the time.

Before the force of the Red God Priest and the Red-robed Monk could be exerted, the Faceless One, who had been secretly spying on them, used all means to send them to the Lord of Light!

War.

Inevitably, it starts.

Braavos was blocked by land and sea.

Protected by the true gods.

Benelo, who is the High Priest, and Melisandre, who is preaching in Westeros and is about to become the High Priest of the Sunset Country, both see visions in the flames and know that the priests and monks on the Isle of the Gods have been killed by the Faceless One.

He did not complete his mission in the south of Westeros.

The Church of Lahlo can't afford to deal with the Faceless for the time being.

But.

They have not forgotten Robert, Ryan, Varian, Arthur and Daenerys, as the Emperor of Westeros, Robert's Princess was assassinated by the Faceling, this Princess is also the Crown Prince and the mother of the second prince, Ryan and Varian!

Arthur's ex-fiancée, Hainly Kay, also died at the hands of the Faceless One.

Daenerys is the sword-wielder of the Lightbringers, and has received help and allegiance from the Church of Lahllo since Meereen, and is naturally one of their biggest supporters.

After consultation.

Both Benelo and Melisandre agreed to hand over their church's magic, all copies of the magic books in their collection, and the training methods for priests and monks.

Get such a big benefit.

Robert, Lane, and everyone else agreed that the Lahlo Church would replace the Church of the Seven Gods and support the Red Priests and Red Monks to continue their missions.

However.

They didn't expect it at all.

Benneiro and Melisandre's generosity harbors evil intentions!

Whether it is learning magic or those magic books, you must sincerely believe in the Lord of Light, which is equivalent to using extraordinary power as a lure to preach to the emperor, prince, ministers, many lords and nobles of Westeros in disguise!

The Lahlo Church is not strong enough.

With only one Order of Warriors of the Hand of the Flame and a Legion of Zealots transformed by the former Tigerrobes, it will be difficult to break through Braavos and kill the Faceless.

Thereupon.

Melisandre has once again entered the Red Keep.

In the throne hall, he spoke loudly in front of all the lords and nobles who remained in King's Landing to study the magic books, magic texts, and training methods for transcendent priests and monks.

"Your Majesty, our priests and monks were assassinated by the dastardly Faceless Ones on the Isle of the Gods in Braavos, but we in the Lahlo Church are only a church, thirsty for revenge but not strong enough. ”

"Therefore, we are willing to give the most precious and rare high-level magic of the Church, which can communicate with the Lord of Light and learn to master the power of fire, in exchange for Westeros sending troops to Braavos!"

Obtain the Divine and Magical Books.

After reading the knowledge inside, try to train transcendent priests and monks to achieve results.

Hearing this, everyone couldn't resist the temptation of high-level divine arts.

Thinking of the hatred and the wealth of the Iron Vault, Robert, Ryan, Varian, and Francis Sr. all chose to agree.

"We can send troops. ”

"But there are two conditions, one is to attack Braavos, and the deposit of the iron vault will be ours, and the other is to send some priests and monks to teach us until we master magic and magic. ”

Such conditions were expected by Melisandre: "No problem!"

Compared to Robert, Ryan, Varian and others who were seduced and confused, there were many Westeros lords and nobles who were hungry for merit, wealth and power.

Having studied magic, Azhara was very conscious.

Knowing that the magic and magic books of the Church of Rahlo are to pray for the power of the Lord of Light, and that they need to dedicate their beliefs, they will unknowingly become a believer in the Red God, and there are hidden dangers for her, for Westeros, or for everyone.

However, she didn't say that!

......

Return to Essos' side.

The Dragon Queen, who is expanding as planned, is slowly laying railways in the Andaz region.

After receiving information from Varys, I heard that Robert, Ryan, Varian and others, as well as many lords and nobles of Westeros, decided to cross the sea to attack Braavos because they wanted to obtain the high-level magic of the Church of Lahlo, and their brows immediately furrowed.

"Varys, do you think Robert really just wants the high-level magic of the Church of Lahlo?"

Jorah thought for a moment and said, "There must still be a deposit in the iron vault." ”

Everyone nodded in agreement when they heard this.

The lords and nobles of Westeros, under the leadership of the Emperor, will go out to attack Braavos, and it is absolutely impossible to impress them without a large enough benefit.

Daenerys thought more.

Compared to the gods and the golden dragon, she thinks that Robert wants to attack Braavos, maybe he wants to point finger at Essos!

And.

Of the nine free trade city-states, Braavos is the only one that is truly slave-free.

Sending the Iron Fleet to blockade the waters of Braavos, expanding northward to block the land route south of Braavos, Daenerys only took advantage of their entangled coalition attack on Mill.

The defeated Braavos completely lowered his posture and demanded reparations and surrender several times.

And neither Daenerys nor Arthur agreed.

The repeated refusal to surrender to the weak, and the preparation of a strong invasion, have already undermined the righteousness of Mill and the Land of Dissention.

But Arthur wouldn't let Braavos and the uncontrolled Iron Vault continue to exist.

Daenerys, who has gone through so many things and has become more politically experienced, also agrees with her husband's approach, resolutely disagrees with their surrender and submission, and longs to achieve the same feats as their ancestors conquered kings, conquering the nine free trade city-states, and even conquering Essos!

"Your Majesty, I think we now have two options. ”

Malvin spoke, "The first is to attack Braavos at once, and take the dragon to burn their defenders, as well as all the rebels. ”

"No, I can't. ”

Because of the emancipation of slaves, the establishment of schools, the development of industry, the support of the old and the young in Mill, Telosi, Rees, Pantos, and the land of strife, as well as supporting medical research, opening hospitals to treat various diseases, and so on.

Daenerys and Arthur have a name like never before.

She didn't want to kill innocents indiscriminately, and she didn't want to be as brutal as her crazy father, so that the merits that could be remembered for centuries would be stained.

"Then, by the second method, we will lift the blockade of the Iron Fleet on the waters of Braavos, and we will also turn east and expand to Norfos and Kohor. Marwen said.

"Let Robert fight Braavos, and we'll wait and see?"

Daenerys frowned.

"Your Majesty, this will save us from fighting with His Highness's father and brothers, and will save time in conquering the Nine Free Trade City-States. Malwyn chuckled, "His Majesty Robert and Prince Ryan swore an oath. ”

That's right.

Because Arthur voluntarily renounced the inheritance of the Iron Throne and left Westeros, not asking them to provide a single soldier, and laid a large share of the inheritance by his own ability, Robert and Ryan solemnly swore that ,——they would never compete with him for the land of Essos!

Westeros won't have any conflict with Arthur's kingdom!

After the wedding, it can be seen that Robert, Ryan, Varian and others, many Westeros lords and nobles, took the initiative to help deal with the coalition forces of the trading city-states, and their oaths were true.

"But to do this... Isn't it just to give all the money in the iron vault to Robert and them?"

Daenerys was a little unwilling.

"No, Your Majesty, we are not short of money. ”

Malvin shook his head: "Even if we get the deposit in the iron vault, it is just the icing on the cake for us, but it is a relief for Westeros, which is in ruins." ”

"Moreover, we have a strong industrial base and a strong economy. ”

"If Westeros wants to restore its former prosperity, it will definitely trade with us in all kinds. ”

Daenerys immediately smiled, "Trade can drive production, increase national wealth, and eventually earn back the golden dragon that Westeros got from the Iron Vault......"

...... To be continued......

Next up is the Divine Wars, clearing out some of the gods of the Song of Ice and Fire world, and the expansion is the first invasion of the Outlands
