Chapter 353, Excalibur New World
King's Landing at dusk.
In the palace of the Red Fort under the purple glow, Cersei, who sent troops to drive away Daenerys and let the Golden Regiment besiege the Eagle's Nest City, stand on the balcony of the emperor's bedroom in Megar Tower overlooking the country with a look at the world.
"Your Majesty, the Red God Priests who sneaked into the city to preach and preach the Lord of Light and heroic words have all been killed. β
To fulfill the Lion Queen's orders, Cobain, who wears many hats, hurries over.
Hearing the scholar's report, Cersei didn't look back, but asked lightly, "What about those bewitched believers?"
Cobain said, "It's all cleared too." β
"What about the Church of the Seven?" Cersei asked again.
"It's still very peaceful. β
Hearing this, Cersei finally turned around, and then cared about her twinned brother, who was angry: "How is James?"
"Lord Jaime is still angry that His Majesty brought him back. Cobain sighed.
"Are Euron and the Iron Fleet back?"
"What about Dorne's fleet?"
Cersei is also very helpless about her brother who is stupid enough to help her enemies deal with the strangers, but as the queen of Westeros, she can't just care about her children's affections, and to sit firmly on the Iron Throne, she must take out Robert, Ryan, and Daenerys.
Failed to kill the Dragon Queen, only drove her away.
Raven-Eyed Eulon, who wields the power of the storm, must return to take charge of King's Landing.
"Lord Euron and the Iron Isles fleet are expected to return in the evening. "The Dorne fleet has entered the Stormlands, and we can't catch up. β
Unable to destroy the enemy's allies, Lannister's enemies, Cersei was disappointed: "Then let them go for now." β
"Is there any news from the Iron Vault?"
At the helm of King's Landing, taking over the primary crafts and farming industry built by Daenerys and Arthur, Cersei, who owned a large number of merchant ships, never stopped trading at sea.
I have also heard a little about the news that Braavos was attacked by ghouls.
But these lion queens don't pay attention.
It's not that they want to borrow money, but they want to cooperate with the Iron Vault and recruit more mercenaries through them.
Because the dead and alive crossed the sea on icebergs to attack Braavos, the Iron Vault recruited eighty percent of the mercenary regiments of Essos, and if you want to get more mercenaries, you must pass through them.
Cobain shook his head: "Still no news." β
Hearing this, Cersei was silent for a moment before asking, "Is there anything else?"
"No more. Cobain bowed and said, "Please allow me to leave." β
The other side.
Compared to the lion queen's side, she has a variety of ways to deal with enemies, win allies, and develop her own arrangements.
Daenerys has no plans to deal with Cersei at all, except for Illyrio Morpatis to recruit mercenaries.
Hop on the dragon and fly north of Westeros.
Find your fiancΓ© who has mastered the Light, and the Lightbringer who is stuck in the meteorite!
The power of Crow-Eyed Euron to create tornadoes is indeed strong.
However, if the Lightbringer can help the Lord of Light defeat the ancient gods, and with god-level powers, he can easily change the celestial phenomena and reverse the disadvantage of the Winter War, will it not be comparable to the storm power of Euren Greyjoy?
Fly over thousands of miles of waves.
The snow-white land of eternal winter soon came into view.
The snow-white earth was clear at a glance, and Daenerys, who was flying in the sky, did not see any trace of her fiancΓ© and others, guessing that the meteorite had been purified, and turned south.
Receiving news from the Night's Watch, Daenerys quickly rode the dragon to Winterfell.
"Why are you here all of a sudden?"
Seeing the silver-haired queen on the back of the black dragon, Arthur, who was about to leave for White Harbor, was a little surprised, he thought that he would not see this fiancΓ©e who had a conflict with the fat emperor until the battle for the Iron Throne was decided.
Daenerys said, "I need help. β
"Attack King's Landing, deal with Cersei?" Arthur asked, somewhat uncertain.
Daenerys said in a deep voice, "Euron Greyjoy attacked me on Dragonstone, and Angela and Liadline were killed. β
Hearing this, Arthur's heart was furious, even if his temper was good.
But he knew it well.
Helping Daenerys deal with Euron would mean participating in the battle for the Iron Throne, which could lead to a war with Robert, Ryan, Varian, and others, and then never to the death
"I don't want to expand this pointless civil war. β
Help, but Arthur decides to make things clear first.
"It's only going to deal with Euron Greyjoy and help you get revenge on Angela and Liadrin. β
"I understand. β
Knowing her fiancΓ©'s personality and personality, Daenerys will not let him fall into a rivalry with the Robert father and son and the brothers Ryan and Varian.
Seeing that the prince was going to take everyone on the back of the dragon, thinking that he could get the capital to go home, Asha Greyjoy, who commanded the voyage of the battleship, suddenly asked depressedly: "Then we won't go to White Harbor?"
Arthur shook his head.
Dragons can fly, and they can go anywhere faster than a boat, so why waste time on a boat?
Ambrosius, who proposed to bring her to the gaze of the daughter of the sea monster, frowned, looked at her solemnly and muttered, "You will get what you want." β
"Really?"
"I won't lie to you. β
Knowing that the old wizard had the ability to predict, Asha, who heard the words, had nowhere else to go, so he still followed the prince on the back of the dragon with half a doubt.
"Your Highness, Euron Greyjoy is not simple, be careful. β
When Arthur and the others got up to the dragon's back, they heard Bran, who was in a wheelchair and was being pushed by his sister Sansa to see him off, using his mental power to transmit the sound.
"Behind him are gods!"
Hearing the words of the last Green Prophet, the first druid, Arthur, who was already solemn, suddenly attached more importance to Euron, who had mastered the power of the storm.
The Holy Light Rune connected to the Sea of Consciousness disappeared.
Without the infinite blue stripe plug-in that provided a constant stream of energy, he would have been more cautious with all of his life.
"I have received word that Euron and the Golden Regiment are besieging Eagle's Nest. β
Daenerys didn't take all of her men with her, leaving Tyrion, Jon, Grey Bug, Missandei, and Melisandre all on Pantos, with only Jorah, Marwin, and his four students around.
The dragon flew over most of the northern territory against the wind, crossed the neck and entered the Arryn Valley, and it didn't take long to see the Eagle's Nest City on the Bright Moon Mountains.
However.
Arriving at their destination, Arthur and Daenerys find no trace of Euron.
Not even the Golden Regiment is nowhere to be seen!
Robert, Ryan, Varian, and Old Francis, who were besieged in the castle of the Arryn family, contacted scouts and shapeshifters to investigate the situation and prevent them from being suddenly attacked by a tornado created by Euron after coming out of the castle.
Ordinary sword soldiers ambushed, and Robert, Ryan, and Varian, who became transcendents, were not afraid.
However, natural disasters cannot be resisted by man!
Daenerys and Arthur arrived on a dragon, and the Fat Emperor soon received reports from scouts and shapeshifters.
"Arthur, you've finally made your choice. β
Seeing the youngest son on the dragon's back, the warrior emperor had a complicated expression on his face.
Hearing the Emperor's words, Arthur groaned for a moment and said, "No, Father, I am only here to deal with Euron Greyjoy, and when Euron Greyjoy is eliminated, I will go to Essos on the other side of the Narrow Sea." β
"To Essos?"
Robert frowned and fell silent.
Arthur took the initiative to give up the inheritance of the Iron Throne, did not want a fief, and decided to go overseas, as the founding emperor, Robert who fought the world with his hands actually did not like it at all, because as a man, as a warrior, you can choose kindness and infighting, but you should not retreat without making any efforts and attempts.
Good guys are overdone!
However, this youngest son is too soft-hearted.
It is simply impossible to be a qualified person in power.
Ci is not in charge of soldiers, good is not in charge of money, leaving the chaotic Westeros is indeed the best choice for him.
Daenerys was not afraid of Robert's murderous intentions towards her, and walked over directly and asked, "What about Euron Greyjoy?"
Old Francis looked at the emperor and his two grandsons, and said truthfully, "I don't know." β
Blackfish Brinton said: "More than ten days ago, the Eagle's Nest City was also attacked by a terrifying tornado, we were all hiding in the castle, and we didn't find any trace of Euron and the Golden Regiment in the past few days, so we thought they were preparing some conspiracy, and for the sake of prudence, we are only coming out now." β
"Why didn't you bring the army with you?" asked Robert, looking at the Dragon Queen with a slight displeasure.
Daenerys shook her head, "I was attacked by Euron on Dragonstone. β
"Now I don't have an army either. β
Ryan: "You're coming, then?"
Dragon Queen: "He cut me down with an axe just to kill Euron, and I wouldn't have survived if it hadn't been for the efforts of Fellows Malween and Melisandre, and Angela and Liadline all died because of him." β
There are not many transcendentals.
Robert and the others all know the Church of the Seven Gods, the nuns and sisters who master the power of the divine white light.
Upon learning of their niece's death, Mars and Mikal turned pale, and they survived the brutal Battle of Winter, slaying the Stranger and countless ghouls.
I didn't expect them to die at the hands of someone like Croweye
"Euron may have returned to King's Landing. β
Ryan speculated, "If you didn't kill Daenerys, Cersei must be afraid that you will attack King's Landing on a dragon." β
"Please Queen Daenerys take us!"
The death of the two nieces not only caused the loss of Mars and Mikal, but also the important combat power of the Church of the Seven.
They can't help but take revenge!
Having seen the terrifying tornado, Ryan was a little concerned about Arthur and Daenerys' actions: "It's not easy to kill Euron. β
"What about the Lightbringer?"
Daenerys said helplessly: "It's still suppressing the advent meteorite of the ancient gods. β
Robert: "Why don't you take Melisandre's red-robed girl?"
"She's helping me get in touch with the church in Lahlo. Daenerys did not hide the usurping fat man, and said bluntly: "When you kill Euron, my army will be assembled, and then you will obediently return to the stormland." β
"The war hasn't started yet, and we don't know who will win and who will lose!"
Robert will not admit defeat.
But considering that Daenerys was already gathering troops and had not done anything, he suddenly felt a little anxious, and was even more angry because of the siege of Euron, so he strode away with a cold snort.
"Arthur, Daenerys, I'll go with you. β
Varian said.
"Are you sure?" Daenerys and Arthur were a little surprised when they heard this.
Old Francis groaned when he saw this, and saw that Ryan, as the eldest brother, had no objection, and that Emperor Robert had left, so he nodded and said, "Go if you want, but be careful." β
And just like that, Varian joins the team against Euron.
Without stopping at the Eagle's Nest, Daenerys and Arthur went up to the dragon's back and flew towards Westeros' largest city.
Under the stars, the light illuminated on the dragon's back was like the second full moon in the night sky.
King's Landing overlooking Blackwater Bay.
On the walls of King's Landing, the guards on duty at night were standing by the fire and dozing, and suddenly saw a dazzling golden light in the dark night sky.
When the soldier raised his head, he saw the pale golden ball of light getting closer and closer, and there was a huge dragon shadow below the golden light!
"Bell Bell Bell ~"
"Enemy attack!"
"The dragon is coming!"
For a moment, the silent Westerodi was awakened.
Since the day the Unsullied Legion and the Dothraki cavalry withdrew from King's Landing and were reoccupied by Cersei, it was clear to everyone that the Dragon Queen, with the dragons of Drogon and Rego, would surely take the city back as long as she did not die.
The inhabitants of King's Landing have seen transcendent battles.
Be clear about the dragon's destructive abilities.
Also know that Euron Greyjoy can summon tornadoes!
The last Dragon and Lion War, King's Landing was devastated, and the residents really didn't want to see the terrifying tornado and dragon flames reappear.
The city, which was originally lit up, was pitch black in the blink of an eye.
The civilians, who were afraid of being affected by the fighting, all took refuge, making the city dead silent at night.
As the official garrison and enforcer of the imperial capital, the golden robes of the capital garrison all carry out the orders to guard the city walls with the fear of dragons.
In the bedroom of the Emperor of the Red Fort, the Lion Queen, who woke up to the alarm bell, also met with the university scholar Cobain.
"How's it going?"
"Robert Strong has arrived at the walls to assist in the defense, and Euron Greyjoy is waiting outside," Cobain said. β
"Are you sure you can kill those two dragons?" asked the Lion Queen in a deep voice.
"Robert Strong can't fly, and Euron is too destructive. Cobain shook his head, "And we don't have a qualified commander to command the soldiers in battle." β
Hearing this, Cersei immediately thought of her twin brother who was having a temper tantrum with her: "What about James?"
Hearing this, Coben thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "If Lord Jaime is willing to command the soldiers to fight, we will definitely be able to wipe out the enemy's soldiers, and even leave the dragon behind. β
After a moment of silent thought, Cersei quickly made a decision with no one around to use: "In that case, go and bring Jaime here." β
Over King's Landing.
Arthur on the back of the dragon blessed Drogon and everyone with the protection of the Holy Light.
The golden light illuminates the city at night, and the deployment of the golden robes on the city walls, the movement of the soldiers assembled in the city, and the reaction of the Iron Islands fleet in Blackwater Bay can be seen clearly.
"Where do you guess Euron is?"
Surveying the populous imperial capital, Varian asked, "The city walls, or the Red Keep?"
Nemelia spoke, "If I were Cersei and saw the enemy dragon attacking, I would let Euron stay in the Red Keep to protect herself. β
"Arthur, what do you think?" Daenerys turned to look at her fiancΓ©.
Hearing this, the prince frowned and groaned for a moment, then sighed and said, "Go to the Red Castle." β
"Let Cersei out first. β
