Chapter 216: Dilemma

Westeros used to have magic, dragons, spirits, and possible characters in bedtime stories used by old nurses to scare children. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The "ancestors" who first came to this continent drove the evil creatures "Strangers" into the icy snowfields with the help of the children of the forest and magic, and then with the help of giants, they built a wall fortification nearly 600 kilometers long and more than 200 meters high in the northern wilderness, which is known as the magical building of the Great Wall of Despair.

Later, Aegon the Conqueror of House Targaryen rode dragons to Westeros, and relied on the flames they brought to destroy or capture castles one after another, eventually becoming the ruler of all of Westeros. He became the "Guardian of the Seven Kingdoms", the only king, and developed magic to its zenith in this world.

But hundreds of years later, the dragon dies and the magic disappears. The school, which used to study magic and spells, also had to announce the disappearance of the power of magic. Of course, people still hear about mysterious spells, strange creatures, and proclaimed miracles.

"But those are just legends that can't be proven, aren't they? Tyrion's mouth was slightly open, his eyes mixed with excitement and suspicion. "I know the difference between magic and magic, and even if you're a witcher, you can't fool me. ”

"Tell me first, what does a witcher do, do you want to destroy all witchcraft users and monsters?" Zhao Mai asked Saver as he bandaged Sir Rodric.

"Yes, this should be a time for human beings, and there should be no magic. ”

"In other words, you are ready to deprive humans of the option to use magic?Who gave you such power?" Zhao Mai shook his head and said, "You and I have fought side by side before, and I am not in the mood to debate this with you for the time being. So now I say, I'm not a magician or a wizard. ”

Saffer's fingers flicked over the hilt of the knife, then crossed it to his waist, "Are you lying to me?"

"Why, are you going to draw your long knife on the grounds that I have deceived you? I warn you, be careful of the consequences. Zhao Mai took out a cherry with a magic berry spell from the small bag on his body and stuffed it into Jazz's mouth. This thing has the nutrients that an adult needs for a day and a certain healing ability, and is the mildest treatment.

Jazz swallowed the cherry directly, not even letting go of the core, and then his face was much better. He listened to the conversation between them word for word, and then he felt the need to say something. "The Old Gods are above, what are you arguing about, how do you start killing each other?"

"Nope. Saver shook his head, "I don't have any definite evidence that Mike is a monster right now, so I'm not going to draw my sword." But I'll keep an eye on you, and if you do anything to hurt humanity, trust me, I won't hesitate in the slightest. I'm the best at killing monsters. ”

Zhao Mai just snorted lightly, not really taking it to heart. He had taken care of Sir Rodric's wounds and carried him to his carriage, and the broth on the other side was almost healed. It would have been tastier if it had been cooked for another half hour, but there was nothing to be faulty about eating a steaming meal of meat next to the battlefield.

Tyrion had been following Zhao Mai's side, and several times he wanted to speak but had no chance, and Tyrion kept staring at them! Tyrion knew that as long as Sarfur was around, Mike would definitely not admit that he knew magic, because that meant that there was no room for reversal. He prides himself on seeing people very accurately, and has figured out this Mike's temperament. He's the kind of guy who looks like a maverick, but in fact he's quite enthusiastic, always unconsciously thinking about others. It is this kind of character that will lead him to travel with this rabble, and also take care of Tyrion on the way, while also being careful not to cause Caitlyn to be offended. He'd get people something to eat, and he'd treat Sir Roderick, even though he was the one who dragged him on his way in the first place.

Such a person will suffer one day, but there is no way to keep Tyrion from liking him.

"You shouldn't have followed me. Zhao Mai didn't eat the pot of horse broth, he didn't like the smell of blood that was unique to the battlefield around him, which affected his appetite very much. He also didn't like being stared at by an ugly dwarf with a bowl while he was in a daze. "You're focusing on the wrong target, magic is still unproven, and you're still a captive, that's reality. You should think about how to get out of your predicament. ”

"You can take me away. Tyrion said in a low voice. It turned out that he hadn't forgotten about it, but had just combined it with his curiosity about magic. "My sister is the queen, my father is the guardian of the West, one of the strongest dukes in the world, and the Lannisters can sponsor you and help you fulfill your wishes. ”

"Don't you ask me what my wish is, what if it's to kill everyone in Westeros?"

Tyrion shook his head and said, "You're not that kind of person. And, even if that were the case, the Lannisters would be the last to be killed. Look at the group now, Lady Stark and Ser Roderick are not capable of fighting, and Marion is a waste. Bronn is a very realistic mercenary, and there is a good chance that he will follow rather than stop him. The knights who had served the Stark family loyally were killed, leaving only Suffel...... But if you want to leave, he can't stop him, right?"

"I like you, Tyrion, it's true. Zhao Mai said: "But ......"

Zhao Mai was stuck, not knowing what to say. Zhao Mai knew that he had been wronged, and that the murderer of Catelyn's son had nothing to do with him, so this arrest was meaningless. He could easily take Tyrion with him, and he could walk away without even hurting anyone. He can help Tyrion avoid painful torment after pain, and even help him become the most powerful man in Westeros.

And then? Is that Tyrion Lannister still the one he remembers? Or is he the little man who has grown through hardships and is still tenacious despite his injuries? Hold the dwarf aloft, will he still look at the world as coldly as he used to, and will he remain sympathetic, will he be so different? Perhaps, he will become the same Lannister as his father, a "Lannister giant", a "lion", but only maybe.

Maybe it's all just speculation and it won't actually happen. Maybe we should let go of the shackles and turn this place upside down. In the world of Attas, Zhao Mai knew that the slave revolt was the general trend of world development, and he took advantage of the trend and won the final victory. But when he thinks about it, does he now have the power to play freely, can he ignore the will of the world?

Passion and reason are always difficult to reconcile, but in the end a balance needs to be struck. Zhao Mai calmed down and thought about his original purpose for coming here. Take Tyrion from here, and then escort him, take the place of Bronn's job, protect him in battle, and then accompany him to King's Landing. Tyrion becomes the acting Hand of the King and becomes the leader of the City Guard himself?

And what if you meddle too much and cause a major change in the incident? You can't sit idly by, and you will only fall deeper and deeper. Tyrion plays Game of Thrones, and he will only follow the information and plot in this regard, and once he departs from the plot, he will probably only be self-defeating. If it was an ordinary person, Zhao Mai would think it didn't matter, but he didn't want to take this risk in Tyrion's affairs. If there is anything he wants to meet and be friends with in the entire continent of Westeros, Tyrion is definitely in the top three.

Zhao Mai closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was already very firm. Before he could speak, Tyrion could read the answer from his expression, so he sighed and said, "I see." ”

"I don't like the feeling either, the feeling of being constrained and not free. Even with magic, there is still too much to do before you can be truly free. Zhao Mai said to him: "I didn't think that I would really reject you, and I didn't think about this along the way." But I now find that you have your own way to go, and I have my own way. ”

"What kind of reason is that?" said Tyrion. He had been rejected for all sorts of reasons, such as being ugly, such as being short, such as that he was a Lannister, but what was the reason that Mike had given? It was almost the most nonsensical, perfunctory reason he had ever heard. But Tyrion did a good job of hiding his disappointment and walked away quietly.

Maybe it's time to consider other possibilities, like Bolon.

Tyrion took two steps with his head down, then raised his head again. Even if he only looked at his back, Zhao Mai knew that this little dwarf had survived again. Before, now, and in the future, he will continue to encounter injustices against him, but he will still exude a convincing light. In this regard, Zhao Mai believes that he needs to learn from him.

Just then, the phone rang suddenly. (To be continued.) )
