Chapter 488: "Plug-in" Preliminary Test

All else being equal, people living in cold regions usually have a larger proportion of their bodies wrapped in clothing because of their need to protect themselves from the cold, and the time is generally longer - the part covered by the fabric does not have the opportunity to soak up the sun, and the skin tone is always much lighter than the exposed part.

As a normal person, Egger naturally can't escape this physiological law, and under the natural light from the window, the skin on his chest under his collarbone is not an exaggeration to describe the feminine word "snow white" - if it weren't for a little hair to save some of the scene, it's really a bit of a mother.

But at such moments, it is this whiteness that makes the parts of different colors appear so abrupt in the field of vision, and he can find the right place at a glance.

A slightly convex flat lump appeared in the flat bone of the chest groove, and a foreign body was faintly visible through a thin layer of skin and capillaries: it was a flaky object the size, thickness, and soft and hard touch of a fingernail, with a round and blunt shape and a slightly pointed end, and it was indeed a scale—something Iger expected: its color was not the "sterling silver" that he thought was the same as the hair color of the woman in his dream, but "a slight hint of silver in the red gold" It looks as if a brand-new coin with a five-jiao denomination has been surgically implanted under the skin.

The pain gradually dissipated, but the skin around the scales did not show inflammation or rejection of redness and swelling, and even if I rubbed it vigorously, it did not slide under the skin, except for the warmth that came from it, I could clearly feel the warmth from it, and the foreign object ...... It's as natural as being born and raised in that place.

It's amazing.

Did it enter the skin without harm, or did it make a hole in its own body and then use a means to make the breach heal quickly? Why did its giver have to stuff it into his body instead of leaving it to himself to deal with normally, such as making a pendant and hanging it on his chest, for fear that he would accidentally lose it? Also, I don't know where the scale grew in the goddess before it was plucked or shed?

I was actually - was rough into my body by a part of a woman, and it was a bit weird to think about it.

Shaking his head and shaking off the clutter of thoughts in his head, Egg realized that what he needed to do now was not to think about it, but to try to figure out how much the scales were doing: Rahlo had asked him to study it slowly in his dreams, which meant that the reward was not limited to the functions she had introduced.

Plug-in, or cheating...... In short, those things that "can give you an advantage over others" will not be hated by anyone. Frankly, from the time he had just crossed into this world until he had finished his war against the Strangers—he would have been grateful and remembered for the gift that Rahlo had given him sooner. But now, at this time when he is ready to go south and unify the Seven Kingdoms, and he is quite sure?

It's not that he's so arrogant that he doesn't feel like he needs outside help, but ...... If I had to sum up this feeling, it would be:

Sending charcoal in the snow to see the truth, who is rare to add icing on the cake?

This scale, as a token of the "god" and an advance payment, is really too exciting to pretend to be excited, and the effect is so weak that he is not very looking forward to it...... It's better to have the extra ability to surprise itself and fill in the emptiness and boredom of picking up a piece of chicken ribs.

Thinking a little unpleasantly, Iger raised his eyebrows, and before he was ready, he first discovered the first one—an additional function that was not in Lahlo's instructions: he seemed to suddenly have the ability to not be afraid of the cold.

The Commander-in-Chief's bedroom was fully insulated, and the cubicle was heated by a fireplace, which was much warmer than outside, of course, but after a full night, it was at most a few degrees above zero, and now there was a hole in the roof that made the exchange of heat and cold expedient...... It stands to reason that people will feel cold soon after leaving the bed due to the loss of heat. But this time, from the time the quilt caught fire, to the time when the guards rushed into the house, and then to the moment he stood by the window, several minutes passed, but not only did he not feel cold, but he was so warm and comfortable that he did not realize until now that he was wearing only underwear.

Sensing the temperature in the rest of his body with his hands, he found that this warmth was not an illusion but a real one, and that the body temperature was only normal and not as scorching as Melisandre and Macchiro - which meant that he was not only highly resistant to the cold, but also that he had not become noticeably abnormal.

Hey, that's a good start, and that extra surprise alone is enough for Egger to carry the scales well.

Interested in testing the limits of this ability, he simply put on his coat, took off his belt at will, and left the bedroom without any other warmth, walked through the office, and pushed the door open and walked out of the room.

Outside, it's a pleasant day, and the sun has been showing up more and more often, even though winter has not yet shown signs of an end since the stranger was destroyed. The cold air was below zero and seeped through the cracks in the clothes that were not tightly wrapped, and sure enough, I still couldn't feel cold.

Then subconsciously looked up at the sky, and found that it was as empty as expected, he shook his head, turned his head and pretended to casually ask the two guards who were on duty: "You two, answer truthfully - do you feel that I am different from usual?"

The two guards stared at him with wide eyes for a few seconds, and after hesitating, one of them scratched his face and said, "Hmm...... Your Excellency, you seem to be a little more majestic than usual?"

"It's more than 'some'!" another grabbed the topic, "I just saw it at first glance, if it weren't for your strict prohibition from the commander, I would have been unable to help it—my knees fell limp down." ”

"Definitely. The man who spoke first nodded in agreement, "It's very similar to the feeling we experienced in front of Her Majesty when we went to see her not long ago, but this momentum in you, my lord...... It seems to be a little stronger. Uh, my lord, you can't get the queen to do this!?"

Iger glared at the soldier and stopped the slightly rude and lewd topic, but his heart suddenly opened up, and it made sense to explain that he had also had that creepy muscle tingling when he first met Daenerys, and at the time he thought it was the psychological effect caused by the environment and atmosphere, but now it seems that this is neither from posturing nor from some domineering, but from the true dragon power inherited from their ancestors by members of the Targaryen family!

The question he asked the two guards was "Did you find yourself different from what you usually are", not "Did you notice that I have become more imposing", but they still answered correctly, indicating that Lahlo was not lying on this point - with the implantation of a Red God Scale, he now has this kind of intimidation. But what is not certain for the time being is that the two soldiers said that their momentum was stronger than the queen's, was it a subconscious compliment to the leader, or was it true?

This remains to be observed and judged in detail over a long period of time.

Yes, I almost forgot, according to the goddess, this deterrence is most likely effective against animals, and the closest place to yourself is where there are animals...... It's the stables. I wonder if the horses will become more docile and obedient when they see them, or will they be frightened and neigh?

Just as he was motioning for the guards to follow him, intending to go to the stables for some experimentation, Egg saw the figures of two high-ranking priests hurrying.

Melisandre and Machiro, the two gods who do wield extraordinary powers, and the unfathomable look of "everything under control" that they always hang on their daily days, are now gone...... They rushed towards the building with a dense pace that seemed to be trotting, in a state of embarrassment and eagerness that bordered on rolling, and met Egger head-on, who was about to leave.
