Chapter 502: Six-Body Throw

Iger was counting on the snow to stop after departure, but it was still dark on the day the expedition began, and it was still ...... the next day He had expected this to adversely affect his strategic plan to travel thousands of miles to Winterfell, but it turned out not to be so bad: between "small" and "medium" The amount of snowfall between them was not much different from the cloudless sky for the land-giving army, which was more than ninety percent of the people who were from the mountain clans and the Cypriot tribes, and this sudden reversal of direction was thus successfully completed in the first journey in the light snow: the thousands of people who were supposed to go north to the outside of the Cypriots braved the wind for two days, and rushed to the junction of the King's Road and the frozen Moe River again at a faster speed than the original pursuit of the fleeing ghosts, and re-established themselves at the fork in the road leading to the last Hearthplace and Winterfell.

They had already left the land grant and crossed the line into the north, and although the road to the south had been lightly repaired and widened, the frequency and degree of snow clearing was not at all comparable to the roads inside the land grant, and the next march to Winterfell would inevitably be reduced by a point or two, and they would reach the political center of the north in four or five days, completing the first phase of the southern expedition to "besiege Winterfell".

Ordering the main body of the army to continue southward along King's Road, Iger and dozens of his closest guards set out on the other road to the east, and made a quick trip to the last Hearth, where the Queen was now located.

Naturally, the speed of the march of the lightly armed small troops with horses was greater than that of the large troops carrying the baggage and advancing on foot, and Egger's plan was to spare half a day to visit the queen without delaying the lightning march of the main body of the land-giving army towards Winterfell. After telling her that she had "changed her plan and decided to help her fight for the throne first" and briefly explained her "new" battle plan, she immediately took her leave and turned back to catch up with the majority of the army, ensuring that she would join the main force before dark today, and would not affect the continuation of the march tomorrow.

So, a small group of heavily armed men in black marched towards the only castle in the north that had fallen under the tide of corpses, following the traces of the last Ghoul army's attack on the last Hearthh City last month.

The distance of a few miles was fleeting, and soon, in the gray eastern sky, the silhouette of a castle was revealed.

But it wasn't just the castle that came into view, with a sudden thunderous roar in the sky in the direction of their direction, and in less than half a minute, a huge dark green shadow suddenly appeared from behind the flying snow and fog and swooped down towards them, passing only a few meters above them, as if brushing the scalps of the people, and flapping its wings behind them again and climbing into the air.

Dragon!

The sudden "Xia Longwei" caught everyone off guard, and they all broke out in a cold sweat, although almost all of this large group of people participated in the Battle of Changhu and had already seen the world and could control their emotions, but the horses under their crotches could not have the courage and self-control of people. In a burst of neighing, everyone's mounts suddenly lost control in a frenzied manner, and the formation was chaotic, and several adults flipped on their backs.

"Don't panic!" the red-robed woman who accompanied her tightened the reins and shouted, pinching the spell at the critical moment, and calming the frightened horses with a spell: "It won't attack us!"

Melisandre was unaware of the existence of Rahlo's Grace, and she didn't know that Egger was now armed with a dragon power that was even greater than Daenerys', but she didn't need any reason to believe that the dragon, as the Red God's pet, would never harm His chosen one.

And that's exactly what happened.

With the help of witch magic, Egg, who led the team, successfully controlled the horse that he had almost thrown off, and looked into the air with a frown as he drank and ordered everyone to return to the queue and continue to hurry.

He had ordered the queen's dragons to be fed at all costs, and the information sent back showed that the two dragons had been sleeping in the castle in peace—neither flying around to cause panic, nor doing anything bad to hurt anyone. If it weren't for the soldiers who stayed behind by the queen's side who were so bold as to deceive themselves, then what was the green dragon in front of him crazy about scaring himself?

......

It's not just Iger on the ground who is confused, but Lei Ge flying in the sky is even more confused.

A minute ago, it was sleeping soundly in the dragon's nest sheltered from the wind and snow, but suddenly noticed an unusually intimidating ...... No, the strange coercion of the dragon came straight in its direction from far and near. Unlike the terrifying aura emanating from an unknown being outside the ice wall to the north, the one that came to it this time was not only terrifying, but also a kind of worship and awe from the bottom of its heart...... This is a kind of suppression at the soul level, so completely that it doesn't even dare to escape, so it can only obediently drill out of the dragon's lair and fly up to meet it.

The green dragon had expected to see a mountain as large as a mountain with outstretched wings that could cover the sky...... It is likely to be an old dragon of his own generation of ancestors, who wants to fly to the place and look for a long time without seeing half of the shadow of the imaginary dragon, and then feel it carefully, only to find that it is actually under the body - on the ground.

In the dragon's worldview, it is disrespectful to fly above the head of a strong man, so it hurriedly dived down, but still did not find the main owner, only dozens of humans on horseback in the snow. Unable to figure out why, it didn't want to get into the snow and quickly regained its height, circled back, and cautiously circled seven or eight times before confirming that it was not mistaken: the source of the aura that made it both awe and awe was in the group of small people who were slowly advancing on the ground.

Rego's brain, which didn't have much wisdom to speak of, couldn't figure out why, but the instinctive fear that came from the depths of its genes made it unable to give birth to any thoughts such as "go back to sleep anyway" or "attack and test it", and after looking down for a while and failing to figure out the situation, it finally decided: go to the ground and take a closer look.

***

The flapping of wings blew up a large number of snowflakes, and in a strong air flow like a storm, the dark green shadow that circled over everyone's heads for several times finally lowered in height again, cutting into the direction of the group of men in black from the side, and finally landed in the thick snow on the side of the road ahead.

The crowd had to stop again.

"My lord, let's ...... What to do?" asked Kathy, dumbfounded. The dragon flew above their heads for a while, and Iger ordered everyone to ignore it and continue to move forward, and the big guy did as he was told, but it fell down and was in the way, and even if they could continue to go straight through the psychological quality, it was impossible to pass through the flesh and blood of a dragon!

"It's coming for you, Commander-in-Chief. Melisandre reined in and turned her face to stare at him.

Iger nodded, but didn't speak. He wasn't stupid, he had already guessed it when the dragon circled the first lap above their heads, and even pushed it further - the day he received Rahlo's bounty a few days earlier, he was already convinced that something might happen the next time he encountered the dragon...... But everything imaginary takes place in the presence of Daenerys, and the fact is that it is not he who meets the dragon, but the dragon who flies to find him.

A green dragon with a lord recklessly flew in front of him to block the way, as a vassal himself, what should he do with it?

"Wait where you are, Casey, Melisandre, come with me. ”

The original young squire was now considered a young man, but his courage still did not increase much, and after being called, he shrank his head and reluctantly rode out of the crowd - the three of them left the queue and slowly paced towards the big guy who stopped dozens of meters in front of him.

The green dragon swept away the snow from its side with its tail and limbs, and after sorting out a field that barely made it less uncomfortable, it stopped moving, raising its long neck like a swan, and quietly watching the three of them on horseback with a hot white mist. With seven or eight meters to go, the horses refused to take a step forward, no matter how much they urged or whipped, so Egger dismounted with his two henchmen, and let Casey take the reins of the three horses to prevent them from fleeing in fright, and walked through the last section on foot with the red-robed woman.

The big creature really had reason to hate the North: the snow around his body quickly turned into snow under the steaming heat of his body, and in a moment it created small puddles where his feet and tail hung down, mixed with the thawing permafrost and turned into mud...... Stepping on such a puddle of mud is disgusting to think about, no wonder it flew for a while before it landed.

The scorching heat of the demon dragon's body, which used to be so repulsive from thousands of miles away, was no longer an obstacle, and Iger looked up to keep eye contact with the big guy at all times, cautiously but unobtrusively until he walked into the shadow of the green dragon and reached out to the distance where he could touch it, before he stood still, crossed his waist to see what it wanted.

One raised his head almost vertically, the other lowered his head almost straight - after looking at each other in this position for a few seconds, Lei Ge finally confirmed that the breath came from the villain in front of him, his body retreated slightly, lowered his head, and brought the head slightly smaller than the black dragon Zhuo Geng, but still huge to a person, to Egg's side, with huge eyes with vertical pupils facing the man's face, how could he not understand: why did such a little guy who could swallow it in one bite carry such a terrifying and powerful aura?

The dragon had no rich facial expression, and Egger couldn't read its thoughts in its eyes, and was hesitating how to respond, but Melisandre, who was also so close to the dragon for the first time and was so bold, couldn't help but reach out first and carefully touch the green dragon's nose.

"Huh-" The bronze dragon's eyes turned to the daring witch, and with a fierce snort, Thunder opened his mouth to show his black teeth and made a jerky bite gesture towards Melisandre.

It had already learned the rule "people can't eat" from Daenerys, and this time it opened its mouth and closed its mouth just to scare the woman in red, but Egg didn't know its intentions, listening to the whispers of the woman with whom he had a friendship, and seeing the only red-robed priest beside him in distress, he didn't know if Melisandre's spell had the ability to protect himself under the dragon's mouth, so he subconsciously reached out and pressed it on the head of the green dragon.

In the palm of his hand, the piping heat that could burn him is now just warm to the touch, and the next change made everyone present unexpected: the green dragon who was still violently attacking the red-robed woman in the last second, at the moment when he was touched by Egger with his hand, he seemed to be held down by him with ten thousand forces and froze in place, and the next second he put away his teeth and grinned, and then took a step back, bent his shoulders, lowered his neck, and made a statue of any species. Any culture can understand the meaning of body language at a glance: the five bodies are lying on the ground!

No, in addition to the four limbs of the chin, the front paws with wings, and the hind legs, the dragon also has an extra tail, so if it is more vivid, it should be called - six-body throwing!
