Chapter 0772 - Promise to Summons the Dragon

(2-in-1)

*

Archbishop Maynard, officiated by Crown Prince Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark. After Rhaegar and his wife Elijah Martell divorced, they secretly went to the Old Town with Lyanna Stark, where they spent a very sweet and short time, they secretly found Archbishop Maynard, officiated at their wedding, and left a token to the Archbishop, waiting for the right time to announce it to the world.

At the time, the two young men were not aware of the seriousness of the problem, and Rhaegar could not have imagined that his father Aerys would brutally execute Brynden Stark, the wolf who had come to King's Landing to find his sister, and Rickard Stark, Duke of the North, and that his father Aerys would force Duke Jon Arryn to hand over the heads of Eddard Stark and Robert Baratheon.

While Rhaegar and Lyanna enjoy their world in the Crimson Mountains of Udon, the Tower of Elysium, the contradictions between the outside world have reached the point of irreconcilability, and only war and death can solve the grievances and blood feuds caused by the two of them.

Thus, the Targaryen dynasty ushered in its own downfall - the spark of the prince's love, the cruelty and arrogance of the Mad King, the blood stained the Red Keep red, and the corpses were piled up on the ground.

The combination of ice and fire, supported by Eddard Stark, left behind a seed of life: Jon Targaryen. He is the only seed of ice and fire.

And to restore Jon's identity and make him understand who he is, there must be evidence.

There is one more witness: Holland Reed, and physical evidence from Archbishop Maynard is now needed.

Will and Arya soon find a fat bachelor next to a bookshelf in a corner.

Scholars hold candles in their hands and read books on the high staircase. There was a book basket hanging on his stairs, and in the basket were a number of books, and he was numbering the books in the basket and putting them on the shelves one by one.

"Bachelor, do you need help?" said Arya.

She was a woman's voice.

There were no female students in the Bachelor's gown, but now there were, and at the foot of the high staircase, stood the face of a girl who had put down her hood and exposed her short hair.

Her voice was the first proof that she was indeed a woman.

The scholar looked at the two people in confusion, he was a little confused.

A girl in a white robe?

"Scholar, we're looking for something that Archbishop Maynard left here. Will said, respectfully.

"Archbishop Maynard?" the scholar on the stairs seemed to be a little unresponsive, his eyes looking upward, as if he were trying to think.

Arya thinks the scholar might be an idiot.

"I'm sorry, I've heard of Archbishop Maynard and met him a few times, but I don't know anything about him. The fat bachelor on the stairs said.

"Oh, thanks, do you need help? For example, help you put a book, or help you carry a candle. Arya said. She's a kind-hearted girl, but she's always been covered up by her wildness to her kind side.

"No, no. Are you sneaking in? You're not a bachelor, you're not a student. "Right?"

"Yes. Will replied.

"Oh, then you'll have to go out with me, you can't stay in here any longer. If you are not a bachelor's student, you will not have access to the library, and you will hurt these books. The fat bachelor began to climb down the stairs.

Arya and Will didn't move, waiting for him to come down. The movements of the scholars are really slow.

"You'll have to go with me and think about where anyone who trespasses into the Sanctuary of the Stars will be questioned and punished by the Scholars. Oh, wait a minute, I'll see if you sneak into your pockets. "The Fat Bachelor was stupid and naΓ―ve enough to come and check the pockets of Arya and Will Bachelor's robes.

Some of the robes are full of pockets, densely packed, large and small.

Will reached out and grabbed the Bachelor's wrist, and gently forced, twisting the Bachelor's wrist, the Bachelor was covered in cold sweat and could hardly speak, Arya looked at him with sympathetic eyes: "Bachelor, take us to find the things that Archbishop Maynard left here, maybe a book, maybe a notebook, maybe a letter." ”

β€œ...... I...... I...... I...... I don't know......"

"Then go check it out. I'm sure you'll have a way. Will gave a gesture of his eyes, and Arya drew her dagger and gestured at the Bachelor's throat, "Help us, we'll give you this." Arya took out a money bag in her left hand and shook it, and the coins jingled, "It's all golden dragons." ”

"If you don't help us, we'll slit your throat. Will said, "There are so many bookshelves here, and some of them are dark, and I'm sure your corpse only stench will make the scholars follow the smell to find you." ”

The Fat Bachelor immediately agreed to help Will and Arya find what Archbishop Maynard had left here.

The Fat Bachelor didn't know what Archbishop Maynard had left here, nor did he know exactly where it was, but he did have a way of finding out.

There is a room dedicated to a directory of books, as well as a register of books and objects in the names of the various bishops.

Entering this room, there are three bachelors in the room.

Arya and Will stood in the doorway, letting the fat bachelor in to look for it.

They weren't afraid of the fat bachelor rebelling, and even if the other three academics in the room came to resist together, they wouldn't be Arya and Will's opponents. What's more, the fat bachelor has already taken Arya's money bag.

Among the scholars, there are very few people who only pursue learning in their lives. Bachelors can't get married because they can't get married in their lives, and many bachelors spend the most money on girls in addition to learning. Paisier, a bachelor who served as a great teacher of four dynasties in King's Landing Red Keep, spent his money on two things, one was to do academic experiments, and the other was a girl in a girl's nest. The high-end girls' nest in King's Landing, he is a regular customer.

It's hard for a man not to touch a woman in his life!

*

Half an hour later, Arya and Will got what they wanted, and the two of them thanked the fat maester for his help, and then quickly left the city of the bachelor, and they headed to the tallest building in Old Town, and the tallest building in Westeros, nearly four times the height of the Great Wall of Despair.

When you come to the old town, if you don't go to the towering tower, you don't have to be there.

It's just a pity that the two of them can only look at the towering tower from a distance.

Around the tower, there are many garrisons.

At the gate, there are four heavily armed guards of the Hightower family. They did not have heavy armor, although it was snowing in the north, but in the south, the weather here was very hot.

The soldiers were mainly leather and white. Only on the calves, shoulders, chest, and wrists are protected by steel armor.

When you look up, you can't see the top of the tower.

It's too high, and the colors of the heights melt into the sky, making it difficult to see the end.

It is a tall tower with white stone stairs.

Will also had to marvel at the level of architecture in this world and the computing power of the scholars. For such a tall tower, the bearing force of the foundation must be calculated. The higher the ground, the thicker and deeper the foundation underground, and the higher the technical requirements for construction.

It is one of the ninth wonders of the world, and is on a par with the Great Wall of Desperation in the north.

There is the Great Wall in the north and the towering tower in the south.

"Let's go!" said Will.

"We're leaving, maybe we'll never come back for the rest of our lives, Will, let's disguise ourselves and get in. Arya was eager to try.

"No," said Will, "it's not easy to get in, just ride a griffon from the sky to the top of the tower." ”

Arya's eyes lit up.

"But then the whole of Dorne and the nobles of the South will soon know that we have been here. It's not good for our whereabouts to be known. ”

Arya pouted.

"I promise you, when the war is over, or if there is a brief gap in peace, we will come again and come to see the Tower of Baon. Will said perfunctorily.

"I'm going to go inside and have dinner with Count Hightower. ”

"Well, I promise you!" Will said.

"Talk?" said Arya, staring at Will.

"It's a deal!" Will's heart had already flown to the Red Keep in King's Landing, and he didn't know when Kevon and Tyrell would start their army to go north. These people don't go north, and they can't find anything else to do.

*

King's Landing, Red Keep, Meggor Tower.

"This is the Dragon's Horn?" said Kevon, looking at the horn in James' hand.

The horn is not big, the length of a dagger, there is no dragon pattern on it, it is all black, and it is covered with golden dark lines, and in the bright light, the horn is reflective.

"Yes, uncle!"

"I'll see!"

Jaime handed the Dragon's Horn to Kavon Lannister.

Kaivon took it, and there was a cold feeling in his hand.

"Dragons are flames, why is this horn cold?" said Kevon, looking at Euron.

Euron's right wrist was wrapped in a bandage and hung around his neck. The left arm is also covered in bandages, making it look fatter than the right.

"Sir, burn your horn with the flame of your candle. Euron laughed. He smiled presumptuously, as if what had to surrender after being subdued by Jaime had no effect on him.

Kevon put the horn on the flame of the candle and burned it.

After a while, the horn did not respond.

"My lord, touch with your hand the place where the horn was burned. ”

Kaivon reached out and touched it, and it was still cold to the touch, just like everywhere else.

"The horn is not made of gold and iron. Euron said.

Kevon nodded.

"It attracts heat and also absorbs light. If in the dark, open the wrapped black cloth, it will glow faintly and release a faint heat. ”

"Oh!" said Kevon, "I'm going to try it tonight." ”

"As you wish, my lord. ”

"But even so, how can I know it's true?" said Kevon, "Lord Euron, can you prove it to me?"

"What more do I need to prove, my lord?"

"Prove that this trumpet is true. "Lord Euron, you must prove it. ”

"I can't prove it. Euron smiled.

"Oh, tell me why this horn can control dragons. ”

"I don't know, but I can only tell you how to blow this trumpet, my lord, what kind of intent each trumpet represents. ”

Kaivon stared at Euron who didn't care, this guy didn't seem to care so much, if he really didn't care, he wouldn't tell the secret of the Dragonhorn to come out. He still cared, about life, about wealth, about power, about status.

"How far can you summon a dragon with this horn?" asked Kevon.

"I don't know, sir. Euron's blue eyes were filled with a mocking smile.

"Probably in the range. Kevon was unfazed by Euron's impudence.

"Thousands of miles, or ten thousand miles, who knows. ”

"Then give it a try. Kevon said.

"How do you give it a try?"

"Let's go to the top of the Megg Tower, and you will blow the horn and summon the dragon. Kevon said.

Euron stared at Kaivon with wide eyes, and Jaime was also shocked.

"Don't make a fuss, since there have been rumors of three demon dragons appearing on the other side of the Narrow Sea, let's give it a try. If the horn can indeed summon a dragon, then it proves that the horn is real, and it is true that Lord Euron and we will join forces to destroy Will. ”

"And what if you can't summon the dragon?"

"Then you've been playing tricks on us, and you're going to get nothing but the bare Iron Islands. ”

Euron laughed, "Deal, Lord Kaivon." ”

The three of them came to the top of Megg's building, facing the sky.

Jaime reminded, "Uncle, even if this horn can summon a magic dragon, we can't verify it now. ”

"Why?"

"It's too far away, and the dragon won't necessarily come when he hears the horn. Even if it comes, it's not now. It takes time to fly. ”

"That makes sense, then let's give the dragon two days. Blow the horn, Euron, the dragon does not appear in the sky over King's Landing in two days, and you will lose my trust. ”

"Will I lose my head too?" said Euron with a laugh.

Kevon didn't answer the question, he really wanted Euron's head, but he wanted Euron's fleet even more. This is one reason why Jaime and Kaivon didn't kill Euron in the end.

Euron blew the trumpet.

The sound of the horn was not as loud as Kaivon had imagined. He was very skeptical that such a voice could be heard by the Demon Dragon for thousands of miles or even tens of thousands of miles, and that it would obey the call? Yu Lun played the horn of summoning the Demon Dragon three times in a row, and said with a smile: "Okay, Lord Kaivon, I'm done blowing. ”

"Well, you have two days to prove that you're not lying. "Jaime, give you two days to learn how to play this horn from Master Euron and to find out the secrets of each horn sound." ”

"Yes, uncle!"

"Arya, I'm going to take you to Dragonstone, and then I'm going to the east for a very important business, you take a boat from Dragonstone back to the north. In the sky, Will said.

"Why can't I go to the East with you?" said Arya's strange voice and eyes.

"Because you're going to the North and tell Jon Snow that he is Jon Targaryen. He's the rightful son of Prince Rhaeggar, do you understand what that means?"

"Understand, he is the only legitimate heir to the Targaryens, not the Targaryens on the other side of the Narrow Sea. But why can't we write a letter, or send someone to look at the East China Sea on Dragonstone? ”

"What about the evidence?

"The crow can also reach Greywater. Arya said.

"No way?"

"Why not? I was sent by House Stark and His Majesty Shireen to protect you, and I am your bodyguard. Arya said very seriously.

"No, you've done your job. You can't keep following me. ”

Below, is Dragonstone, which is as small as a fingernail.

On this island, there is also a man who is loyal to Her Majesty Shireen: Davos Seaworth, Earl of Onion.
