Chapter 57: Spider Silk - Asking for Votes

PS: Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommendation! Thanks to the monthly pass and recommendation support of this month's enthusiastic book friends, although it was exploded on the 22nd, this book stayed in the top ten of the monthly pass for half a month. The collection of this book is much less than that of other gods, but the stalemate of the monthly pass shows everyone's enthusiastic support! Wild boar three bows in thanks!

The recruitment of the new guards went well, and by noon a large amount of money from Kirk, a full 200 freeriders had been recruited into the Honor Guard (since Ed had been dismissed, he could no longer be called the Prime Guard), and 200 sets of cavalry armor had been installed. Brienne began training them right away, trying to turn the freeriders into regular troops in the shortest possible time.

Now everything is fake, only hard fists are the truth. In the stormy city of King's Landing, although the 300 riders are just a bumpy boat, they are not going to use it to charge, as long as they can protect Duke Ed and fight their way out of the siege, the mission will be completed.

Sir Roderick was also loyal, and after the recruitment was over, he saw that he still had a full 8,000 gold coins left in his hand, so he simply smashed them all into it and bought a lot of fish oil cans back. King's Landing is the second largest port in the Seven Kingdoms, and fish oil is very cheap here. 8,000 gold coins are enough to buy tens of thousands of cans of fish oil fire cans.

According to the old sir, since Robert is not authentic, don't blame us Northland people for being unrighteous and provoking Lao Tzu, and give you a fire to King's Landing, it is easier to kill people and set fire to them than to save people, and it is easier to escape after creating chaos.

Kirk clapped his hands and applauded, there are 4 female vampires in his [Spiritualist Stone], these are the Night Kings of the speed of action. is the best person to perform arson and trouble.

As a result, the Prime Minister's Tower was temporarily turned into a large arsenal, and 300 riders, except for those on duty, were busy making fire oil incendiary bombs. Wang Han calculated that although this homemade earth incendiary bomb was not as professional as the similar made by the Alchemist's Guild, it was more than enough to deal with the chaotic houses and streets with mainly wooden structures.

In the afternoon, Kirk followed Duke Ed on his way to the church, and as expected, it turned out to be another lengthy procedural ceremony. It was open until 7 p.m. The king was the first to go back to the palace to eat, and the others were also hungry and croaked, and went back to their own houses to eat.

Kirk heard Duke Stannis order to go to the docks to prepare his ship, and he claimed that if it continued tomorrow. He's going back to Dragonstone.

Kirk sighed in his heart. This Robert is shameless enough. There are already a lot of green hats on his head, and he still pretends to be nothing. Your king's face is too important, isn't it?

Kirk believed that Tywin Lannister had murdered Robert. Because Robert is such a face-loving person, he will never let Cersei and Joffrey go, and this is a dead end that the two sides cannot reconcile.

But Robert no longer trusts Eddard now, and even though Kirk knows that he could be assassinated by the Lannisters at any time, he can't alert him.

Outside the city, Chubby kept coming in, and he was doing well with the little wolf girl's ice wolf, so Kirk didn't have to worry.

Kirk instructed Chubby to use his vampire bloodline talent and Icewolf's keen sense to expand the scope of his reconnaissance and detect any troop movements around King's Landing.

In the evening, Kirk continued to learn martial arts with Roderick.

Brienne also joined the training.

The first time Kirk competed with Brienne, and found that this woman was really a genius in martial arts. She is tall and powerful, but she is full of agility and agility like a female leopard, and when it comes to fighting, she does not care about herself, and suppresses Kirk very badly.

Fortunately, Kirk is also a personality who does not admit defeat, relying on his strong physique and brave fighting, he stands up again and again and continues to practice.

After being beaten by Brienne and becoming a pig's head, Kirk suddenly felt that he had a new understanding of martial arts. This has nothing to do with attributes, nothing to do with upgrades, it is purely a sublimation of martial arts understanding.

It turns out that fighting is such a simple thing.

To put it bluntly, eight words "use your own strengths to attack the shortcomings of others".

Sir Roderick defeated himself on the basis of his lifelong combat experience. He can always find the flaws in his defenses like a sea otter knocking on a shell, and give himself a sea flat.

Brienne taught herself to use her perfect combination of strength, agility and skill to sprint when she should sprint, and dexterous when she should be dexterous, so that she could not adapt to her unique rhythm.

In this world, many things are extremely complex and simple.

Kirk lay quietly on the sweat-soaked floor, his eyes blankly contemplating his martial arts path.

By the time he regained his senses, it was time to accompany Ed to the courtroom.

In the training of these two nights, although Kirk's attributes did not increase by 1 point, nor did he increase any skills by 1 level, the systematization and perception of Kirk's combat are no longer the same.

He believed that if he met Sandor, the "hound", he would be able to end the fight perfectly in a short time, instead of relying purely on digital bodies and strong crushing like last time.

In front of the Prime Minister's Tower, where Ed temporarily lived, 300 knights were ready to go. After just one day of training, although the cavalry unit was still lacking in integrity and aggression, in Sir Roderick's words, it was still a flock of ducks on the battlefield. But in terms of tactics and obedience, he can already make Ed like an arm and a finger, and use it freely.

Ed had feared that such a large escort in King's Landing would be a bit of a swagger, but Kirk persuaded him, "The king has removed you from the post of prime minister anyway, so what is there to be afraid of?" The most important thing is to make it back to Winterfell alive. Ed thought about Catherine and the children, thought about Sansa and Arya around him, and finally nodded in agreement.

Just as Kirk was riding the war horse, Wang Han suddenly transmitted in the team channel: "Have you noticed a strange phenomenon?" There are far fewer messenger crows in King's Landing, and I've been divining with a crystal ball this morning, but I haven't noticed a single crow. Supposedly, now is the time for the princes to have frequent contact with their own families, shouldn't there be such silence? ”

KIRK WAS THRILLED: "LYNN, I ASKED YOU TO SPY ON THE LANNISTERS, WHAT DID YOU FIND?" ”

LYNN SHOOK HER HEAD AND SAID, "TYWIN HAS BEEN LIVING IN SECLUSION LATELY, WITH ALMOST NO CONTACT WITH THE OUTSIDE WORLD, NO CONTACT WITH THE PRINCES, AND NO VISIT TO CERSEI AND JOFFREY IN THE KING'S RED KEEP. ”

Kirk pondered, turned to Wang Han and said, "Is there any news about Xiaopang recently?" ”

"Nope!" Wang Han affirmed: "Xiaopang hasn't sent news in for 30 hours, and it was originally scheduled to be delivered every 12 hours at the latest!" ”

Kirk looked up at the gloomy sky, and there seemed to be an invisible web on it, separating King's Landing from the outside world!

"It's ???" Kirk muttered, "Are you going to lock us down?" ”

He slowly walked over to Van Gundy and the Demon Archer at the back of the group, "Boss, have you felt something wrong lately?" ”

Recently, under Kirk's strong performances, Van Gundy and the magic archer have been relatively low-key. In addition, Kirk's performance made them as the honor guard of the same force, and they also earned a lot of family favorability, plot deflection and team contribution points, which is naturally very good, please continue, without creating any incidents and troubles.

Van Gundy thought for a moment, "We didn't find anything here, we just had lost contact with Fat Goose's team. I've been in close contact with them since noon yesterday. ”

Kirk turned to the archer, who held a silver plot crossbow that he had just exchanged from the Stark House quartermaster, and thought for a moment and said, "I'm all right here." ”

Kirk turned his head to Ed, he had a strong premonition that something big would happen today that would shock the world.

The disappearance of the letter crow, the broken letter of the little chubby, the departure of the fat goose, and even the performance of the alliance teammates all illustrate a problem.

That is, the enemy has blockaded King's Landing and is ready to attack Duke Eddard and the Stark family!

Kirk mounted his horse and followed Ed slowly through Nun Avenue into King's Road, which was the core of King's Landing, similar to the Vermilion Bird Avenue in Chang'an City.

This busy street is still full of people and traffic, and it is a prosperous scene.

The cavalry team formed a long line, cleaving the waves in the crowd and moving forward slowly.

At this moment, a dusty herald rode to the front of the honor guard, rolled his saddle and dismounted: "Lord Ed, His Majesty the King has ordered you to enter the palace quickly, meet you face to face, and discuss important matters. ”

Kirk grabbed Eddard, who was leaving on his horse, and shouted: "Do you know that the king's herald has always given the king's handwritten letter as a holy decree to the nobles who were ordered, where is the king's handwritten letter?" ”

The herald smiled, "We were just ordered by Lord Wallis (Octopus Spider), the head of the Inner Court, to give orders to Lord Eddard, but Lord Wallis didn't send me a letter from the king?" ”

Kirk's face pale: "I see, Lord Wallis, as the head of the inner court, there are nobles who forget things, you lead the way, and we will follow!" ”

Ed whispered to Kirk, "Do you suspect that he is a false messenger, this is absolutely impossible, in King's Landing???"

Kirk said coldly, "Lord Eddard, this is entirely possible. ”

Ed said displeasedly, "No matter what, Robert won't hurt me." ”

Kirk laughed, "I believe in King Robert's brotherhood with Lord Eddard, but what if King Robert is dead?" ”

Ed smiled, "If Robert dies, I'll eat the [Ice] greatsword one bite at a time." ”

Kirk shook his head and said, "Lord Eddard, we only need to do a small experiment to know if this is a Hongmen banquet that will never return, or a normal summons from the king. We're ??? like this."

Ed was shocked: "Isn't that okay?" ”

Kirk sneered and turned Ed's horse's head, and coldly pulled out the [Carthaginian Executioner's Long Knife] and stabbed Ed's horse in the buttocks, and the frightened war horse stood up in pain, neighed loudly, and rushed madly in the direction where it came!

Kirk commanded, "Keep up!" ”

The steel dragon of the Honor Guard quickly turned the horse's head, and the 300 guards were all battle-hardened veterans, and soon galloped wildly, knocking down many pedestrians, and finally surrounded Duke Ed again in the guard circle. (To be continued......)
