Chapter 0611 Guest Rights

The Magic Mountain stood in front of the gate of the Earl's main castle and waited for the arrival of the Earl's party.

On the right hand side of the Magic Mountain, there is Miss Yasina Royce, and on the left hand side, there is the Langdengarh Knight.

Behind Miss Athena Royce is Sir Field, the former head of Runeterra City's swordsmanship.

Behind the Magic Mountain, there are his generals and centurions.

Two captains: Sir Erling and Joyce Foca.

More than a dozen generals of Dragonstone. Except for his father-in-law, Gavin Westerling, who stayed behind to guard Dragonstone, the rest of the generals came, led by the heavy axe fierce Rhos Spicer.

Squire ComWarner and the four strongest warriors of the Warner family.

Hussar generals Arrow Angel Cregan, Julie Cregan.

There are a total of nine tribal leaders and their centurions on the Crab Claw Peninsula.

Commander-in-Chief of the Navy Wagnagar and dozens of captains of his dozens of warships.

The generals and centurions behind the Magic Mountain exceeded a hundred.

All of them are fierce and energetic.

Moshan was wearing chain mail, not the most defensive plate armor, and he didn't wear a flat-topped helmet on his head, but he stood at the door, much taller than everyone else, and Yasina Royce stood beside him like a little girl.

The hilt of the giant sword on the back of the Demon Mountain was thick and rare, and it set off his momentum and majesty, which made all the members of the fifty death squad frightened. Some of the soldiers had already changed color.

Yasina Royce did not see the three family vassals she had sent away in her father's ranks: Ser Damon Shet of Seagull Tower, Baron Uther Torrett of Ashvae, and Baron Royce Kovat of Coldwater.

Yasina wondered if her father hadn't run into the three of them, or if the three had been arranged by her father to go to various parts of the valley to borrow troops.

"Count Royce. The mountain spoke like a bell, and the sound echoed through the streets of the city, making the warriors of the Vale brought by Jon even more fearful. Lynn Cobray was originally a brave man, and he was also awe-inspiring when he saw the magic mountain so powerful. It's just that he disguised it well, and his expression didn't change at all.

The Magic Mountain's feared name for bullying is well deserved.

Jonroyce turned over and dismounted, neither fast nor slow, and the soldiers dismounted. Immediately, a groom stepped forward, took all the more than fifty horses away, and went to the stable to feed the horses.

"Lord Gregor!" Jonroyce pressed his right palm to his left chest and bowed slightly. He has his own majestic momentum, but in front of the Demon Mountain, all the momentum has been weakened.

The mountain first saw Hornroys, who recognized Count Jonroyce from the rune-carved bronze armor. The armor worn by Jonroyce is said to be ancestral, thousands of years old, and has magical charms on it that protect the wearer from harm. But in fact, there are too many people in the Royce family who died in battle wearing bronze armor with magic charms, and Andaroys was wearing rune armor and was cut open by a sword from the magic mountain.

Although Jonroyce stood in front of the magic mountain like a young boy, he was actually very tall. Although his face was wrinkled and his hair was gray, his thick palms proved that he was very strong. He has gray eyes and bushy eyebrows.

Bronze Jon's gaze swept over his beloved daughter's little face, as if he hadn't seen Asina Royce. His gaze paused slightly on Field's face, signaling a tacit understanding between master and servant.

Field's swordsmanship was no worse than that of Lynn Cobray. Lynn is younger than Field, and has the Valyrian steel sword 'Lady of Silence', and if he fights, Lynn's agility and famous sword will help him defeat Field.

If Field and Lynn join forces and add themselves, Bronze Jon thinks that the Magic Mountain is dead.

The only thing that worries the Earl is that the legion of the Magic Mountain does not seem to be weak, and now it can be determined that the legion of the Magic Mountain is not the rabble that everyone thinks.

But the legion cannot be without a commander, the army cannot be without a general, as long as the magic mountain is killed, his legions from different places will inevitably be divided, and without absolute authority to stand up and lead, no matter how many elite soldiers and generals can not form a joint force.

"Where's Lord Petyrberry?" asked the Magic Mountain.

"Lord Gregor, I have on me the instruments of the Duke of Vale Arryn's oath of submission, and Lord Petyrberg does not. Lord Petyr is the Duke of Harrenhal, not a Valeer, and I am more representative of the Arryn family in Eagle's Nest and all the people of the Vale. ”

Magic Mountain admits in his heart that Bronze Yorn's rebuttal is reasonable, and he is indeed an eloquent figure. Clear thinking and rigorous logic.

"Well, Lord Jon, this is the little girl Yasina Royce, and this is your son-in-law, the Knight of Langdengarh. ”

"Oh, yes, I'm not going to admit it, Lord Gregor, and I think we'd talk about the Vale's submission to the Iron Throne first. That's what you care about, and that's what I'm here for. ”

"Yes, please!" Magic Mountain did not get out of the way, and he turned back inside, followed by Yasina Royce and the other generals, and Bronze Yohnroyce and the others then entered the hall as guests.

Entering the hall, Bronze Jon, Lynn Cobray and the others were all stunned.

The hall was furnished as a dining room.

There are two long tables, each of which can accommodate 200 people at the same time.

On the table, knives, forks, chopsticks, dipping saucers, beer, red wine, wheat wine, various fruits, steaming soups, and all kinds of barbecue meat are placed on the table.

This is not the place to talk about surrender and vows, it is just a place for friends to meet.

Magic Mountain went straight to the main seat of the long table on the right. The table facing the main entrance is the main seat.

His generals, led by Yasina Royce, sat next to each other at the table on the left side of the Magic Mountain, and it was obvious that the positions of these generals had been arranged beforehand. The centurions went to sit on one side of the other table, leaving dozens of seats on the other side for the guests.

"Lord Count Jonroyce, please be seated. Magic Mountain said, pointing to the first place on his right. This position is opposite to Yasina's position, where Yasina is the first on the left, and the Magic Mountain wants Bronze Jon to sit first on the right.

Respect the right.

"Lord Duke......" Bronze Jon's speech was a little unfluent, the magic mountain held a banquet in the living room, which was too unexpected, and his dining room could also seat hundreds of people, why did the magic mountain set up a banquet in the living room, "I represent my lord Arryn family and the nobles of the valley and the people of the valley to surrender to the lord and swear allegiance to the Iron Throne......"

"I know, Lord Count, but today we only eat and drink, and do not talk about business, and tomorrow after breakfast, we will talk about business formally. Demon Mountain said in a light tone. He didn't say it very seriously, but there was absolutely no doubt about it.

Bronze Jon and Lynn exchanged glances, and he saw the same confusion in Sir Cobray's eyes. He looked at Sir Field, whose expression was calm and his eyes were calm, without any other hint.

This shows that there is no problem with the food and drinks.

But this appearance of the Magic Mountain, no one expected, and it is the first time in this life to encounter it, which is very strange and disturbing.

How could the Magic Mountain do this? Why did he entertain the envoys in the living room?

"Lord Gregor, may I ask for a little salt and bread first?" said Sir Lynn Cobray suddenly.

More than fifty warriors, including Bronze Jonroyce, were moved at the same time: guest rights.

Sir Lynn was demanding the rights of the guests so that the Mountain could not kill them here.

As soon as the host's salt and bread are eaten, the guest rights take effect immediately. They are all protected by the rights of the guests, and the magic mountain not only cannot use their hands and feet in the wine and food, let alone fight each other with swords, but also take the initiative to protect the safety of the guests from the encroachment of others.

De Lynn Cobray's reminder, the warriors of the valley once again noticed that the hundred generals and centurions of the Magic Mountain were all armored and sword-in-the-sword. There are more than 50 of them, and it is impossible for them to do it in such a situation.

Why didn't these people untie their swords and hang them on the walls?

Lynn's claim for guest rights is a double-edged sword, because once the mountain accepts his request, neither party can harm the other.

But they are ready to assassinate the Demon Mountain!

If Lynn and Bronze Jonn signal the assassination at that time, it would be a violation of guest rights, but the advantage of taking the initiative is that it will make Demon Mountain and his generals let their guard down and make it easier for them to assassinate.

Violating guest rights is a violation of sacred laws that are said to be intolerable to the gods, old and new. Correspondingly, there is a corresponding practice for denying or terminating the rights of guests. When a guest leaves, the host gives the other a "guest gift", which means that the sacred guest rights end there.

Neither Jon nor the Valley Warriors knew why Lynn would suddenly ask for bread and salt. There is no such step in the pre-planning.

Because while restricting the Magic Mountain, they also limit themselves.

What was Lynn thinking?

He ran out of guts?

No one doubted Lynn's guts, they were just confused by contradictions.

People on both sides stared at the Magic Mountain, watching the Magic Mountain's reaction.

Demon Mountain stared at Lynn Cobray, who hadn't seen this skinny but agile guy in eighteen years, and he noticed that Lynn's sword was narrow. This sword was the favorite of Braavos' top swordsmen and the Black and White Academy Assassins.

Demon Mountain held his giant sword with his backhand, and everyone's breathing became rapid, as long as Demon Mountain pulled out the sword and placed it horizontally on his knees, it meant that he denied the rights of the guests. Then, their envoy group will be more than lucky.

The Demon Mountain deliberately wanted to slaughter them.

Demon Mountain finally let go of the hilt of the sword, he untied the sword belt, stood up, and hung the sword belt on the sword wall in the living room.

The generals and centurions of the Clegane got up one after another, untied their swords, and hung their swords and swords on the wall of swords.

Bronze Jon's back was already drenched with sweat, and he was ready to assassinate the Demon Mountain, but judging by the situation just now, the Demon Mountain seemed to be ready to slaughter them at the banquet.

"Come and bring salt and bread to every guest. Magic Mountain shouted after sitting down.

In the kitchen, more than a dozen people immediately came out, there were cooks, small workers and maids, everyone Bronze Jon didn't know, and everyone in the kitchen was his own people from the Magic Mountain. All the men of Bronzejor were replaced, and money and food were given to them to go home.

The Valley warriors took the bread and salt, awkwardly and conflicted, and they ate the salt and bread, and the guest rights were immediately effective for both parties.

Lynn Cobray was the first to untie his 'Lady of Emptiness' sword and hang it on the sword wall. The Lady of Silence is a famous sword in Valyria, and Lynn Kobre has always been a sword.

Bronze Jon and the Valley Warriors were all aware of each other, and Lynn still had two short swords on him that he hadn't handed over. Each of them had sharp weapons such as short knives, daggers, and short swords hidden in their bodies, and the long swords at their waists and short knives hanging on the belt of their swords were both light weapons and dark weapons, and they were all prepared.

Bronze Jonroyce also unsheathed his sword and did not take out the dagger hidden on his body.

In this way, the situation in the shadows is immediately reversed.

Mo Shan and the others were all long swords, short knives, daggers, etc., all hung on the sword wall, and they were defenseless, but here, they only handed over weapons such as long swords, short knives, daggers and other weapons that could be seen, and they all hid sharp weapons on their bodies in private.

Are Lynn Cobre and Bronze Jonroyce ready to lead the crowd in trampling on guest rights?

Guest rights are governed by both parties, not one party.

Jorn's personal bodyguard, the knight Reynolds Royce, hung his long sword and short sword on the sword wall, this wall he was too familiar with, this hall and this stone fortress belonged to the Royce family. Now, they themselves are guests. He looked at Yasina Royce as he hung his sword, and Yasina Royce didn't give any special hints. He looked at Sir Field again, and Sir Field shook his head at him slightly, his eyes slightly closed, and it was fleeting.

Reynolds understood that Field had received a message from Count Royce, and he did not approve of them coming to assassinate the Magic Mountain.

Sir Field was a knight of honour and principle, with a rigid and honest personality.

He must have refused to trample on the rights of his guests, and he feared for the safety of Miss Asina Royce. There is a legion here in the Magic Mountain, after the assassination of the Magic Mountain, the Rune City is in chaos, is he worried that they will all die?

Reynolds shook his head slightly, silently, indicating that Sir Field did not understand their determination at all.

The mountain gestured, and Bronze Jon sat first on the right, and Lynn Cobray sat second, a total of nineteen nobles and knights shared the table with the mountain, and the rest of the thirty or so soldiers sat at the centurion's table.

There is a difference between dignity and inferiority!

Maids and servants stood behind the generals, poured them fine wine, and sliced boiled or roasted meat with knives and dipped in the sauce.

It's a new way of eating.

Magic Mountain was in high spirits, and while drinking a big drink, he taught the nobles of the valley such as Bronze Jon how to use chopsticks, and watched Count JΓΆrn and others learn to use chopsticks in amazement and clumsiness, and he dipped the thinly sliced boiled meat on a dipping plate and ate it in laughter.

Bronze Jonn had never eaten such wonderful food.

The Magic Mountain also took out the snow salt to open the eyes of the Earl of Jon and Sir Lynn, and gave them a taste of the unique taste of snow salt.

The meal was eaten from daytime until dark, and Moshan and his generals were almost drunk. Everyone was full of food and drink, and the magic mountain ordered the chefs to bring out the unique dried noodles made of fine flour, Westerling noodles, which opened the eyes of the nobles and soldiers of the valley.

It was the first time they had seen and eaten such fine food. They had never seen it before.

Athena Royce was taken away from the table early by Lord Field, and the general of the Cregan took his leave of the Magic Mountain with the support of his attendants, and in the end, only a few remained. They are the six attendants and two captains of the Magic Mountain. The eyes of these people were as drunk and misty as the magic mountain.

Time's up!

Guest rights are sacred, but that doesn't mean they can't be trampled on.

Bronze Jon gave the signal to move. Runestone City is his home, and here is his living room.

Lynn Cobry cats to the wall of swords to fetch the "Lady of Emptiness".

To slay the Demon Mountain, he needs the Valyrian Narrow Sword Lady of Empty Silence.
