Chapter 0271: Bronze Jonn Duel Will
Before the army moved, Eddard Stark and Tywin Lannister were engaged in psychological warfare.
Eddard Stark's dueling strategy earned him unanimous compliments from the vassal lords of the Vale.
Will looked at Count Jon Royce beside him, the bronze spell on his armor that attracted him.
Sir Jon Royce's youngest son, who was also a night watchman, was Will's boss at the age of seventeen, named Weimar Royce. Weimar and Gary, Will and the three of them were ordered to patrol outside the Great Wall of Desperation, the three entered the Ghost Forest, Will found the spiral diagram of the stump that had been dismembered by the strange ghost and arranged in the shape of a sacrifice, he was frightened, and quickly reported to Weima Royce, and prepared to escape with Gary, and was ordered by Weima Royce to lead the way to see it by the authority of his boss. (The beginning of the TV series and the original story)
Will and Gary had no choice but to go back to the forest at the boy's insistence, and the stump spiral diagram of the sacrifice to the god of cold was missing, and in Will's surprise, the strange ghost appeared, killed Weimar with a sword, and then killed Gary, and threw Gary's head at Will's feet. (In the original book, there were many strange ghosts, and Weimar and the strange ghosts fought for a while).
The old law of the night watchman, once you become a night watchman, life and death have nothing to do with the family members.
Jon Royce was a very arrogant man and wore armor that was said to have been passed down from generation to generation for thousands of years, and this armor had magical powers to protect those who wore it from harm.
But Will was skeptical.
Because Weimar Royce was wearing a set of magically protected family heirloom armor, he so arrogantly forced the two veterans to take him to see the spiral diagram of the stump of the strange ghost sacrificing to the god of cold, he thought that the magic on his armor could protect him, but his armor did not protect him from harm, and the sword of the strange ghost cut through his armor like a piece of paper.
The Ice Sword of the Wraith is so sharp that only the Valyrian Steel Sword can block it, and the Ice Sword kills, sharpening ordinary swords and armor like a sharp knife cutting through a piece of paper.
"What do you see, Night's Watch?" said Jon Royce, showing off his ancient armor.
"My lord, your armor is ancient, and your runes are mysterious and mysterious, it's amazing!" Will wanted to find an opportunity to remind the old man not to believe too much in the magic of ancestral armor.
Because Will knew that if Bronze Jon trusted too much in the power of the spell on his armor, he would die quickly. More than a hundred years after the dragon disappeared, the power of the spell also disappeared very quickly. For example, the magical power of the fire warlock is almost gone.
"You have a good eye, young man, are you familiar with Weimar Royce?" Will's compliment made Bronze Jonn feel very comfortable.
Bronze Jonn was tall and old, so he had a lot of wrinkles on his face and gray hair. However, his palms are unusually thick, his body is very strong, and he is an old general that no one dares to underestimate. His eyes were gray, but they were very bright, and his eyebrows were as thick as gray grass planted on them.
"Weimar Royce was my boss when I was alive. ”
"What did you say?"
"He's dead!"
Jon was stunned, he had personally sent his youngest son, Weimar Royce, to the Wall, and stayed at Eddard Stark's house as he passed through Winterfell. While visiting Winterfell, he competes with Ed on the school grounds in Winterfell, knocking him out. The head of the North Sect, Roderick Kesso, was not convinced, so he fought Roderick Kesso again, knocking out Roderick Kesso.
This is an old man with very high martial arts and superb swordsmanship.
"How did he die?" asked Jon, in a whisper.
"He was killed by a stranger!" Will said calmly.
"What did you say?" said Jon, furious. He felt himself humiliated beyond tolerance.
The stranger is a common saying that the people of the valley hang on and curse people, such as hating whoever they hate, they will curse: let the stranger take him away. Whoever dies will say, the ghosts will come and kill you. Whoever is vicious will be reviled as a stranger.
Will says that Weimar Royce was killed by the Stranger, which is the most excessive humiliation to the ears of the Valeers.
Yorne's two attendants immediately rushed up to grab Will, and behind Will, Angay, Big Gilly, Gorilla Rolger, Fang, and Boron shot together, knocking over the two of Jon's attendants in an instant.
Choke!
Twenty knights of Royce's family unsheathed their swords with their squires.
Here, Boron and Fangs immediately drew their long swords, the gorilla drew their maces, Big Gilly's repeater, and Angai's strong bow instantly completed the preparation for the bow and arrow attack. Only Tyrion ducked aside, a look of surprise on his face. As for the Hound and Cobain, they remained on the Warhammer. The hound's injuries had not healed, and he was not yet able to use his sword vigorously.
Will and Royce looked at each other, one calm and the other angry.
Eddard Stark said, "Sir Yorne, Lord Will is now the leader of the Night's Watch, and I vouch for his words with honor, not an insult to Sir, and both sides put their swords down. ”
"Isn't the commander of the Night's Watch Mormont?" said Jon.
"Mormont is the commander of the Night's Watch, and I am the leader of the Great Wall. "Will is neither humble nor arrogant. We have to reveal the news of the changes to the Great Wall little by little, and announce it in the future, so that it will not be very abrupt.
"The Great Wall Legion?!"
"Yes, the Night's Watch Legion, along with the Wolf Forest Wood Shield Tribe, the Ash Tribe, and the Roaring Stone Folk Legion, are collectively known as the Great Wall Legion!" There are also wild people in the making, there is a big Gilly in front of him, and there will be at least five thousand combat strength in the future, but there is no need to say this now, "Count Jon, Weimar Royce was indeed killed by the Stranger, and the three people who traveled with him, including me, the forty-year-old Ranger Gary, and Weima Royce. Both of them were killed by the strangers, and I escaped alone. ”
Choke!
Jorn's sword unsheathed: "Lord Eddard, I accept the death of Weima Royce, but Will cannot use the ghost to humiliate the Royce family. For thousands of years in the Seven Kingdoms, how could there have been strange ghosts?"
Of the entire Valley Lords, Bronze Jon is the most powerful and authoritative. Before the Arryns ruled the Vale, it was always the House of Royce who reigned here.
Eddard Stark said, "Lord Jon, Lord Will is not a man of his own words, and strange spirits have indeed been found outside the Great Wall. ”
"Lord Eddard, please don't tarnish your honor and integrity. Jon roared.
Eddard Stark has to say more, but if he protects Will and has no evidence, the rift between him and the Valley Lords may be born from this, because by looking at his expression, none of the Valley Lords believe Will's strange ghosts.
For thousands of years, the Wraiths have long since disappeared, just like the vanished children of the forest.
There are no strange ghosts. There are no children of the forest. There are no giants. different
Ghosts exist only in songs and legends.
The knights of the Vale Lords share the same hatred, believing Will to mock Bronze Jon with the death of Wymmar Royce. Under the huge inertia of thinking, Eddard Stark's honor guarantee pales.
Everyone thinks that Will, the man in black, is too much.
The lords of the valley and the knights all raised their eyebrows at the man in black.
Will reached out to stop Ed from speaking again.
At the beginning, Will told Eddard that there were strange spirits outside the Wall, and Eddard Stark didn't believe it, and now it was the turn of others not to believe him.
Since the outpost of the Alien was set aside by Will, the Alien Ghost on the Ancestral Fist Peak has retreated to the Land of Eternal Winter, and there are no more Alien Ghosts in the Ghost Forest. It looks like everyone is safer, but it's the last rays of sunset before darkness.
Will said, "Count Jon, I have no ill will. Weimar Royce was indeed my boss when he died, and we went on patrol in the Ghost Forest, and the ice sword of the strange ghost cut through Weimar's armor. ”
"Draw your sword!" Jon, holding himself up as he didn't cut off Will's head with a sword, "I'm going to duel you." ”
Strange ghosts?
How can there be a ghost?
For 8,000 years, there has never been a ghost. There are many legends and stories of strange ghosts.
This night watchman Will is talking nonsense.
The hearts of the lords and knights of the valley were uncomfortable.
The House of Eddard Stark and the Night's Watch are long-time and staunch allies, as everyone knows, but the Night's Watch can't be allowed to talk nonsense here.
"Good!" Will drew his narrow, seemingly broken Night Dragon Sword and swore to the sky, "I, Will, accept the duel, but before the duel, ask the gods to witness that not a single word of what I say is a lie." If there is a lie, please let the gods let me die by the sword of Sir Jon Royce. ”
