Chapter 146: Meereen (Second Update, Ask for Subscription)
Chapter 146
For those pirates, this kind of demon-like enemy, one is terrifying enough. Eight at once, they simply can't compete.
When Su Yuan boarded the ship, there were more than twenty sailors on the entire ship. They knelt neatly on the ground, listening to the instructions of the leader of the demon god team.
"Who are you?" Su Yuan asked in the lingua franca of the Seven Kingdoms.
A group of crew members on deck looked at each other, apparently no one spoke the lingua franca. So Su Yuan asked again in Valyrian. The last sailor, who looked like management, replied.
"Great Lord of the Seas, we are the people of Aspota and the maritime merchants of the Slave Bay Sea, and we have been entrusted to go to the port of Meereen."
PS: Aspotta was the predecessor of the ancient Guise Empire. It was conquered by Valyria and was the only surviving colony of Valyria. So the majority of the people of Aspouta speak Valyrian.
"Maritime? Entrusted by whom? ”
"It's Meereen's lord, the Dragon Queen, Daenerys. Because she has captured Meereen, Yuankai and Asbota are currently preparing to defeat her. They blocked the sea lanes, bringing Meereen's commercial trade to a standstill. ”
"Dragon Queen...... Now that it's blocked, you're still going to Meereen? ”
"No, it's just that the sea is blocked on the surface. But there are still a large number of smugglers, infiltrating the Meereen trade. It is said that the Dragon Queen killed countless slave owners and looted mountains of gold. She has money, and as long as she has money, the smuggler can sell herself. ”
"Very well, let's go to Meereen."
……………………….
Meereen, the Great Pyramid. Gray Bugs is reporting on today's parade.
"Fourteen Unsullied Ones are missing while on patrol. Three members of the second regiment are missing. Twenty of the new freedmen (slaves freed by Daenerys) in the city were killed. ”
With a bang, an expensive glass fell to the ground.
"And what have you achieved, the lair of the Harpy Son? Did you catch a live mouth. My soldiers, my people, are being slaughtered every day. But I can only sit on this high throne and do nothing. What use do I want from you? Why can't you even catch a son of a harpy? Daenerys was furious.
The gray bug was speechless. Let him lead the troops into battle is a good hand. Whether it is personal force or leading troops to fight, he is the best choice. But when it comes to policing in a large city, and fighting the hidden opposition, it is not at all the domain of the Grey Bugs.
Dario on the side was also born.
"The second group is starting to get a little irritable. They are now terrified of even visiting brothels. Because any prostitute could be the son of a harpy. The atmosphere in the city has not been normal lately. If we don't deal with this soon, then Meereen's current stability will soon be shattered. IMHO, you need someone who knows how to govern the country. Or...... Compromise. ”
"Shut up, I'm not going to compromise with those filthy and depraved slave owners. I'll find all the Harpy Sons and hang them in the harbor and burn them alive. ”
When the meeting ended, the Grey Worm and the maid left, leaving only Daenerys and Dario.
"O'...... Dario ......" (here Baidu himself)
At this time, the maritime merchants, Byron and others were arguing with Su Yuan about this with red faces.
"The Seven Gods are above, this is a steel battleship. Back in the Seven Kingdoms, we will be able to sweep through all the ports with it alone. ”
"Yes, it's a creation that has transcended its time. But can you get it back? Su Yuan's fluttering words left Byron speechless.
"Maybe we can find a small island and put it there. Wait until we have a strong enough team ready before dragging it back. Thorne on the side was also helping.
The reason for all this is simple, Su Yuan decided to abandon the steel battleship and go back on the pirates' ships. And this decision caused opposition from everyone, including Arya. It's just that Su Yuan has made up his mind, and more importantly, they have no way to get the steel battleship back that has lost power.
In fact, this ship can be called an amazing creation, whether in the eyes of Byron and others, or in Su Yuan's mind. But it is clear that this thing does not belong to this era. Even Westeros magic is starting to rise again. But it will take thousands of years to get to the level of Valyria.
Therefore, it will take at least a thousand years or so to reuse this ship. Of course, if someone in Westeros invented the steam engine, or the internal combustion engine, that's acceptable. But manpower, or wind, alone could not propel such a heavy battleship.
As Thorne said, it might be a good idea to find a small island to mark and save the boat. But that's just too much trouble. After completing the trip to the Valyrian Peninsula, Su Yuan's progress in this world has reached sixty percent. He didn't have time to waste any more of these things.
In the end, the protests were ineffective. The group could only watch as the pirates threw a large amount of supplies from their ships into the sea. And then transfer the things on the steel battleship to their ships. The barrels of golden sand, the gems, and the unknown armor all shocked the pirates. Perhaps only the great lord of the sea would be able to hunt such a vast creature and accumulate so much treasure.
And after that, Su Yuan directly concentrated his thunder and lightning power, penetrated the bottom of the cabin, and completely sank this battleship that had surpassed the times to the bottom of the sea.
Ten days later, Su Yuan and the others finally landed at Meereen. Sassanid and Arya immediately found the raven and sent a message to Westeros. At least let the family know that they are still alive. The islands on the ship were all sunk to the bottom of the sea at Su Yuan's signal. A group of pirates who robbed houses, Su Yuan never wanted them to continue to live.
Meereen is a completely different city from Westeros. Because of its tropical location, it is more abundant in crops, both in terms of product and population density, far more than Westeros. Even King's Landing in the Seven Kingdoms can't compare to these free-trade city-states.
Although Aspotta and Yuankai are blocking shipping at sea. But there are still a lot of ships in the port of Meereen. A large number of smugglers, blatantly unloading at the port. The so-called shipping blockade is also to put on a show. This kind of action, which costs a lot of money, but the harvest is often average, for a group of slave owners, how can they do it with all their might.
Four men were left to guard the ship. Su Yuan and the others set foot on the land of Meereen. The first impression of this city on Su Yuan was still good. At least the streets are still very clean. This is one of the more effective achievements under Daenerys' rule.
From time to time, patrols of the Unsullied can be seen on the streets. and the armed patrol of the second sub-regiment. The atmosphere throughout Meereen was a little heavy. Su Yuan didn't know what the situation was like in Meereen now. Because of his interference, Sir Barristan has not left the Seven Kingdoms now, and the little devil is still a hostage in King's Landing. Daenerys' trajectory is definitely different from the original book.
While everyone was wandering, there was a sudden chaos ahead. As a team of eight Unsullied people patrolled the streets, a group of killers wearing Meereen's traditional robes and golden masks suddenly rushed out from behind.
