Chapter 74: Sandor

Ouch!

The howl of wolves that resounded throughout King's Landing, of course, also reached the Red Keep.

In the Red Fort, all the golden robes responsible for guarding and patrolling were first stunned when they heard the wolf howl, and then they couldn't help but started talking in groups.

"Brother, that's Xue Feng's cry. When you said it's time, do you mean the time for us to leave here?"

In the ballroom, as soon as Robb pointed to his ear, a familiar wolf howl came, and Sansa spoke.

"Well, let's go!"

Robb smiled and nodded to his sister, then pulled her out from behind the wall pillar.

Squeak!

As soon as Robb and the two walked to the middle of the empty ballroom, the maroon door of the ballroom was pushed open, and a tall figure appeared outside the door.

This man is tall and tall, only a little shorter than the Magic Mountain. His muscles are tight and well-developed. The right half of his face is very haggard, with sharp cheekbones and thick eyebrows and gray eyes.

The left half of the face was a mess, with almost no ears, leaving only a small black hole. Under the small black hole were large, twisted scars, which were covered with pits and pits.

The Hound, Joffrey's loyal bodyguard.

Robb had dealt with him before in Winterfell, but he had not seriously observed him.

At this point, it seems that the hunting dog's face is indeed difficult to look at, and ordinary people will be a little scared just looking at him.

"Can you pretend you didn't see us?"

Knowing that the Hound had hidden feelings for Sansa, Robb did not take action directly, but asked softly.

Clang!

The hunting dog, who was wearing dark mail armor, directly pulled out the long sword from his waist without saying anything.

However, he was obviously a little arrogant. Not only did he not call out to other guards, he also closed the door of the dance hall.

Robb pushed Sansa to the edge of the ballroom and also pulled out the standard sword from his waist.

"You should know that I stabbed the iron can from Magic Mountain. If the timing hadn't been wrong, I would have killed him right then and there.

Don’t you hate your brother the most? Let us go! In the future, I can help you kill the Magic Mountain."

Hound and Robb stood in the middle of the ballroom. Robb tilted his head and looked at him, smiled and said.

Hearing Robb's words, the hound's eyes flashed, wondering if he was a little moved.

However, the hound, who was still loyal to Joffrey and Lannister at this time, held the sword in his right hand and pointed it at Robb, and stabbed him straight.

Crack!

Robb's long sword in his right hand came back first, and struck the tip of the hound's long sword one-third of the way with a swift strike.

The power of the Hound's sword is not weak, but compared to Robb's, it is still a bit inferior.

Robb's sword directly knocked his long sword off course, making his next attack unable to connect.

"Come back to Winterfell with me! You can be Sansa's bodyguard."

Before the hounds continued to attack, Robb spoke to him again.

Hearing Robb's words, the hound's eyes involuntarily glanced at Sansa, who was standing gracefully on the edge of the ballroom.

Seeing that he was distracted during the battle, Robb slashed his left shoulder with the long sword in his right hand.

Clang, Clang, Clang!

Just as Robb launched an attack with his long sword, the hound immediately reacted and hurriedly raised his sword to block.

Cut vertically, chop horizontally, and chop down.

Robb blocked three of Robb's sword strikes one by one. Although it was a bit hurried, it was obvious that the hunting dog swordsmanship had a solid foundation and his level was not low.

The three swords were blocked in succession. Robb suddenly used his left foot as an axis, turned his body to the right, and made a gravity sweep with the long sword in his right hand.

Clang!

Bang!

The hunting dog held the sword in both hands and held the sword upright on the outside of his left arm with his backhand to block the sweep.

But his left foot was suddenly attacked, and he lost his balance. The huge man fell sideways and fell heavily to the ground.

It turned out that when Robb turned around and slashed horizontally, his right leg quietly attacked parallel to the long sword. He only resisted the hunting dog of the long sword and was swept to the ground by Robb's right leg.

The hound's fall was not light this time. He shook his head, and when he was about to get up, the gleaming tip of the sword in Robb's hand was already pressed against his throat.

"Let's do it!"

Looking down at the tip of the sword in front of his neck, the hound closed his eyes and spoke to Robb.

The sword slowly moved away from his neck, and Robb said to him: "I admire your loyalty to Lannister, but don't be influenced by your Clegane family.

You are not a dog, you are a human, you are Sandor Clegane!

Finally, thank you for taking care of Sansa in King's Landing."

After Robb finished speaking, he pulled Sansa who was beside him and walked out of the ballroom.

Behind them, after hearing those words, the hunting dog... Sandor had an inexplicable brilliance in his eyes.

To some people, Sandor is an ugly, murderous villain. But to Sansa, he is a knight who can protect her.

In the original play, during the Battle of the Blackwater, Sandor, who was mentally shattered by the wildfire, escaped from the battle and came to Sansa's room.

He originally wanted to take Sansa out of King's Landing and return to Winterfell, but Sansa refused.

At that time, Sandor could actually do anything to Sansa, but he did not choose to do so and left silently.

Therefore, Robb gave him some verbal persuasion from the very beginning. If he could be brought under his command, he would definitely be a good fighting force.

But having said that, after Robb's repeated battles along the way, his fighting consciousness and swordsmanship have unknowingly grown to a very exaggerated level.

Although he attacked Sandor while he was distracted, he could be defeated with just a few swords, which was not something ordinary people could do.

Robb pulled Sansa toward the connection between Maegor's Tower and the Hand's Tower. They evaded the guards they encountered who could avoid them. Those who couldn't avoid became the ghosts of Robb's sword.

More than ten minutes later, Robb took Sansa to retrieve the ice from the lobby of the Prime Minister's Tower.

Because he was fighting Sandor's sword just now, he didn't have time to pay attention to the thoughts sent by the blood wind in his heart. Now that Robb was finally free, he could feel the thoughts it sent before.

Silly... delicious!

Shaking his head speechlessly, Robb didn't want to know what kind of snacks the greedy Blood Wind had found.

He directly gave the order to Xuefeng in his heart to come and join together.

The two of them can sense each other's approximate location through the close connection in their hearts. Therefore, Robb doesn't have to worry about Bloodwind getting lost.

At the same time, Clay led a family guard through the city wall and arrived at the south gate of the outer city wall of the Red Fort.

"If you don't guard the south city tower, what are you doing here?"

There were about fifty golden-robed guards at the south gate. One of the golden-robed captains looked at the two Clays walking from the direction of the south city tower and asked loudly.

"We received an urgent order from Lord Baelish to inform you to go to the Gate of the Gods to assist."

Clay had an anxious expression on his face. While speaking, he took out a piece of order document from his arms.

Captain Jinpaozi took the order document, looked at it carefully, and said, "Well, it is indeed an order stamped with the commander's seal. But we have left, what should we do here?"

"The two of us will stay here for now, and our south tower guard team will assign manpower to come over later.

Go quickly! The north side gate should have already notified you, so there can be no delay."

After hearing the other party's question, Clay lied without changing his expression.

He was not afraid that the other party would see any flaws. The order was stamped with the genuine seal of the commander.

Then, the Red Keep was in the southeast corner of King's Landing, and the Gate of the Gods was in the northwest. When they arrived and learned the truth, Clay and others had already safely evacuated during this time.
