Chapter 1008 - Perfect Training Preparation - Nishibashi Looks at Three Horns
Forged Swordkee.
"What is this?" asked Donald.
Samwell unfolded the drawing: "A statue." β
"What statue? Why doesn't it have a face?"
Donald's question was addressed to Jiujian.
"There is no face. Jiujian said.
"What material. β
"Ice. β
Gendry came up, his eyes widening, "Ice?"
"Yes, Ice. Melisandre said.
"Ice has come to forge our sword fort, we have nothing but iron and fire here. β
"Ice is as hard as iron. Jiujian said.
"So you want to make a humanoid statue out of iron?"
"Can you make it?"
"Yes. Donald said.
"The humanoid statue is very simple, make a mold of a human shape, burn the iron into molten iron, pour it in, cool it, and succeed. Gendry said.
"Please follow this ratio carefully!" Jiujian pointed to the marker on the drawing.
"What's the use of these signs?" said Gendry, looking at Jiujian suspiciously.
"Every sign is where the Valyrian steel sword is attacked. Melisandre said.
Donald and Gendry both looked surprised.
"The Valyrian steel sword came to stab the iron statue - a total of eleven attack points. How many are you going to do?" asked Donald.
"Make one. Jiujian said.
"I'm afraid that if I can't withstand a few sword attacks, it will become potholes. "If you want to practice swords, it's common to use wood as a target. β
"You can also use haystacks, and you can also practice spear stabbing. "Gendry has a lot of experience.
Jiujian and Melisandre exchange glances, and Samwell senses that making a statue may not meet the real requirements and the statue will be cut.
"Can you add a little Valyrian steel to the molten iron?" Samwell said, "to increase the hardness of the humanoid statue." β
Donnell and Gendry looked up at the fat man together, and Donnell said, "What do you want, let's help you design something better based on our own experience." β
"That's all. Jiujian said.
"Add a little Valyrian steel to it, we want this figure to be able to withstand the attack of the Valyrian steel sword. Melisandre said, "This is what you Sword Forge owes me. β
Forged Sword Castle cast Sword King, has been unable to create the purest iron embryo, and finally found that it is because the power of the flame is not enough, so he reported to Lord Will, Will invited Melisandre to come to Sword Forged Castle, with magic flames to calcine the sword of the Sword King, and finally cast a two hundred pounds of Valyrian steel sword Sword King.
The Sword King is a ceremonial sword hanging on the wall of the Sword Forge Hall, because no one can swing a two-hundred-pound giant sword, but Tyron Ash can, this Sword King, is also tailor-made for Tyron Ash, after Tylen used it, the war is over, and this sword is to be returned.
When casting the Sword King, Melisandre wanted to forge the Sword Castle to owe her a favor, which must be returned in the future.
Now it's time for Forged Sword Castle to be returned. Anyway, there won't be much time left, if the Night King attacks and the Wall falls.
Donnell smiled, "Alright, Priestess Merry, we'll find a way to add Valyrian steel into it and forge the toughest iron man of allβbut you can't tell us what the hell this is for?"
"No comment. Melisandre said.
"Uh, well!" Donnell said smirkedly.
"Sir, none of these marked points that have been attacked by the sword can be wrong, and there must not be a slight mistake. Jiujian said.
"Good. But if the drawings were drawn by this fat man, it has nothing to do with Sword Forge. Donnell emphasized.
"I can't be wrong with my drawings. Samwell said.
"Then our iron man will be the same. Donnell said proudly.
"Eleven points, the position of the two eyes, the position of the mouth, the position of the heart, the joints of the two shoulders, the two ribs, the lower abdomen, the two knee joints. Are you going to assassinate someone? It looks like you're going to fill the joints and bodies of the other party with Valyrian steel swords. Gendry said.
"You're talking a bit too much nonsense, blacksmith. Melisandre said. Her two bright red eyes stared at Gendry, and a chill rose in Gendry's heart.
He had a hidden fear of Melisandre, and Melisandre's magic made him jealous.

Next to the headquarters of the Firemancer Guild is the branch of the Faceless, and a little further away is the branch of the Iron Vault.
Behind these buildings, there is an ordinary-looking gray castle that occupies an area several times as wide as these buildings: the Holy Inquisition.
In the hall of the Inquisition, a huge torch burned, and the walls were bare, without any decoration, without any carvings of Proverbs, without statues of gods, without altars made of fish beams and wood, and there was no shadow of the old or the new gods.
In the middle of the wall, there was only an unsheathed sword, an ordinary sword, embedded in the stone of the wall.
The hall was as empty as a desolate courtyard.
Underneath the sword wall, there was a black table, and on the table was a drawing, on which was a table, and in the middle was a humanoid statue, the statue was transparent and blue, as if it was made of jade.
Little Will, Big Gilly, Clankler, Gurrigu Creek, Shanna, Jon Targaryen, Robb Stark, Jaime, Arya, Will, Adonis the Wise the Great, and two officers responsible for building the Night's Watch City: Kitts Knoll and Roger Murphy.
"There's plenty of space in the hall, but it's a bit small to make all the guard points of the Wraiths outside the altar exactly the same. Roger Muffy said.
"Then shrink the altar in the middle a little. Will said, "The location of the alien guards, the paths, and the obstacles must all be completely restored, and we must make sure that everything is lost." β
Big Gilly nodded: "Will, Bunyan Stark should also be invited, let him build this building with us, it will be easier for him to understand the way in." β
"Okay! I'll bring him tonight. β
"Then let's get started, I'll divide the work. Kitz Knoll said.
For the sake of absolute secrecy, it was decided to build the building in the hall of the Holy Inquisition, and the people who built it could not use any outside workers, but all of them did it themselves.
Melisandre and Josgen went to the Sword Forge to cast the statue of the god of cold, and Will and Big Gilly led the crowd to the Church to build an altar.
Everything has to be restored exactly the same, including the location of the alien guards, the construction of buildings is still a small matter, and the next training is the real big thing.
How Little Will managed to enter the altar through the Wraith's guards under the protection of Bunyan was the key to the whole thing.
And Xiao Wei brought a lot of things, the only weapon of the statue of the god of cold is cold, which makes people feel the cold of the cold, Jiu Jian went to the altar of the god of cold in a dream, and was touched by the virtual image of the god of cold, and his arm was immediately burned, which still makes him feel palpitations when he thinks about it.
Just a dream illusion, the power of the cold will hurt Jiu Jian, if it is a real person, I am afraid that as soon as it comes into contact, the flesh and blood will freeze into a popsicle, and with a light knock, it will shatter to the ground.
But Little Will is not an ice man, and the lethality of this cold to him will be minimized, or even non-lethal.
The only problem is how to enter the altar, after all, there are stranger guards outside. And in order not to be discovered by the strangers, he had to let Bunyan Stark escort Little Will alone.
But in fact, every experienced warrior knows in their hearts that if they are really discovered by the stranger guards and come out to stop it, causing Little Will to be unable to enter the altar, Jaime, Jingle Shirt and others must go up to fight, and all the people will fight, this is the second plan, and the worst plan.
Jiu Jian said that whoever goes, he must be prepared to sacrifice first, including himself. Will even thinks that Jiujian has actually seen who will die and who will live, but he doesn't say. Perhaps the one who died included himself.
But this path must be pursued.
Big Jili and Will, as Little Will's parents, are also under a lot of pressure, and Will himself doesn't think about it, and he doesn't think about Little Will's safety. And Da Jili still insisted on going together.
Half a month later, everything was ready, and under the guidance of Jiujian, Jon, Robb, Will, Arya, Heiya, Able, Mans Red, Rosso, Severed Hands Colin, Podrick, Big Gilly and others stayed in the designated positions, and Little Will and Bunyan Stark officially broke through, and the training officially began.
*
Xiqiaowang - the westernmost castle of the Desperate Wall, before Will became the commander-in-chief, Xiqiaowang had been abandoned, when Mans Rader and Will reached a cooperation agreement and recognized Will's leadership and command, the freedmen army and the common people entered the desperate Wall, Xiqiaowang was also renovated, and then stationed two hundred warriors.
Two hundred warriors, one hundred freefolk warriors and one hundred night watchmen.
The west bridge looks at this section of the Great Wall, built on a cliff, under the city wall, is the famous Grand Canyon, on the left side of the city wall, is a high cliff. The last end of the Great Wall is connected to the cliffs, like nature.
Here, because of the natural danger, there were no soldiers stationed here. Next to the military fortress is the famous Shadow Tower. Severed Hands Colin and young Mance Red became the best Night's Watch brothers in the Shadow Tower.
The Savage King Mance Rader spent his teenage years in the Shadow Tower, where he learned and grew up with swords.
The defenders of the West Bridge were going out to patrol the outside of the Great Wall of Desperation and carry out reconnaissance of the enemy's situation, there were two iron cables across the canyon before, and the iron cables were laid with wooden planks, and the night watchman warriors passed over the planks, this wooden plank bridge, because it was in the westernmost part of the Great Wall, so it was called the West Bridge.
Later, the glory of the night watchman was gone, the west bridge was abandoned, too long, no one maintained it, the iron chain was so corroded that there was only one iron cable left, and the other one was broken, and half of it hung down under the cliff of the desperate Great Wall, and the iron-red embroidery stained the ice and snow with a stain. Another chain hangs from the opposite cliff, and from this side it looks like an inconspicuous withered vine.
The Great Wall of Desperation, from the west bridge in the west, to the Grand Canyon at the end, to the East China Sea in the east, and the sea at the end, is thousands of miles long and 700 feet high, all made of ice and snow. At night, the Great Wall of Desperation also has its own floodlight physique, and there is never a situation where you can't see your fingers.
Xiqiaowang because of the natural danger of the canyon, the two hundred soldiers stationed here are very lax, because recently Lord Will has returned to the desperate Great Wall, and the military discipline has been rectified, and the soldiers and two centurions of Xiqiaowang do not dare to slack off, and they also began to be on duty at night, standing guard.
Lord Will has a griffon, and has a tradition of checking the defense of soldiers everywhere at any time and place, and he has just returned and has not yet come to the West Bridge to look, which is not a good thing, which can only mean that Lord Will will come at any time.

At midnight, the moon and stars are scarce, and even if there is no wind, the cold burrows into the cloak like a knife. On top of the high city walls, huts were built with wind walls to shelter from wind and snow. In order to patrol the city walls without slipping, the top of the wide city wall that can run two carriages is sprinkled with small stones and black carbon slag, and walking on it is a creazzing sound.
Of course, the most popular thing with the night watch soldiers is the red brazier. Several soldiers gathered together to bake the fire and drink a little wine and talk about a certain woman, and the brothel of Mole Village made them linger.
A soldier took a big sip of wine, his companion told a joke, he laughed, choked, almost suffocated, he fell by the brazier, coughing desperately, and the pain was to death. His face was tilted outward, and to the laughter of his companions, he saw as if something was climbing on the iron cable that crossed the Grand Canyon.
His companions were pointing at him for amusement and laughing, but he was too shocked to move.
The rotten iron rope is extremely dangerous, and no brave person dares to climb such a iron cable. The winter was too cold, and the iron rope was icy and slippery, and even the most agile little beast did not dare to cross it, but on the iron cable, it seemed that there was a person lying on his stomach, moving forward little by little.
The soldier fingered the rope with a horrified face.
His companions laughed and kept teasing him. A companion gently patted him on the back to help him recover his ventilation.
"North Colin," said his companion, "what do you see? β
The guy who choked on alcohol was an admirer of Severed Palm Colin, and with the permission of Chief Colin, he used Colin as his last name.
North Colin's throat hissed, his fingers out, unable to speak.
The three brothers finally realized that something was wrong, stood up, and looked outside, and they saw a man climbing on the iron rope wrapped in ice.
The three brothers were dumbfounded.
With such a slippery iron cable, how can anyone climb without falling?
The locks of the iron ropes were in front of an abandoned gate under the city walls, which had been nailed with many wooden strips, not to reinforce them, but to protect them from the wind.
"Strange ghosts!" said one of the brothers subconsciously.
"He looks slow, but he's actually fast. The other brother muttered.
"Warning, strange ghosts are coming. The third brother's voice was full of panic.
In what was considered the least likely to be attacked, the stranger came.
A faint strange sound came from under the city walls, as if the sound came from the bottom of the canyon, faint and ethereal.
North Colin finally recovered from the shock, jumped up from the ground like a spring, and shouted, "Blow the horn, ring the alarm bell, the strange ghost has crawled from the Grand Canyon." β
Although the Grand Canyon is hot and dangerous, it is not impossible to climb, there are wild people who go south, they all climb from the Grand Canyon, and there are trails in the Grand Canyon.
Woo woo
Looking up at the west bridge, the night watchman's horn sounded.
One sound, representing the return of the brothers, two sounding the enemy's attack, and three sounding indicating the arrival of the strange spirits, on this peaceful and quiet night, on the top of the city wall of the West Bridge, three trumpets sounded: The strange ghosts are coming!
