Game of Thrones: The Arrival of the Dragonborn Chapter 245: The Eve of War
Werther and Jon walked across the plank to the deck of the ship. Jon looked at the people who were already on the ship, turned around and asked, "Aren't Teacher Ye and the others coming?"
Wirth: "They wrote back to me and told me to come to Tyrosh when they have time. Children of the forest can live for a long time, and their concept of time is different from that of us humans. They have plenty of time and will not be in a hurry like us. You go to the cabin first and put your luggage away.
."
The wide deck is filled with dining tables and chairs. With so many magicians together, they don’t have to worry about the rain at all, and treat this place as a place for gatherings.
In addition to busy sailors, people on the ship are roughly divided into three groups.
The table was filled with all kinds of high-end delicacies, and a few old people were sitting on the ground eating and chatting. They were older magicians such as Cobain and Dr. Marwin.
Jon walked over to say hello to some teenagers, Sansa, Jiujian, Menedith Crane, Jeyne Poole, and several other apprentices, all of whom were adults or about to become adults, and all of them were showing off.
I talk like an adult, but in my heart I am still a child who has never experienced hardships.
Jiujian Reed has been awarded the official title of magician. His family is good at hunting, and their ancestral hunting skills are very good. He also has the Green Seer as his back-up, so Witte also customized a learning plan for him.
.Majoring in magic stealth and archery, minoring in various hidden weapons, axes, warhammers and swordsmanship, with a black crow standing on his shoulder.
Jiujian is tall and thin and has a baby face. Even though he usually puts his hands in his pockets without carrying anything, once the battle starts, all weapons can be obtained immediately with the summoning spell. The dark purple magic equipment is much better than the commonly used ones.
Steel weapons are even sharper. Through the visual connection with the crow for detection, and the long-range vision of the eagle eye, his summoning bow can easily hit the head of an enemy five hundred meters away, and he can then rely on the stealth and invisibility magic to calmly
Retreat and close combat are also a problem.
Jeyne Poole was originally the daughter of the steward of Winterfell, and she accompanied Sansa as a maid. When they arrived at the magic school, Werther could not make the apprentices enjoy themselves, so he hired her as a handyman at the school.
As the school expanded and there were more and more students, the second batch of apprentices were all aristocratic children. Many of them couldn't even dress themselves when they came to school. Jenny also became Cobain's assistant and a life teacher. Now Jenny is a junior apprentice
In front of her is a terrifying existence who will lift the quilt if she doesn't listen to her words.
Menedith Crane from the River Bend enrolled in school with Sansa. She is of the bloodline of Garth Greenhand and belongs to the lineage of the ancestors. She has a very good talent for shapeshifting. At Witte's suggestion, she sent the crane home to change.
She raised an eagle. In terms of magic, her talents are restoration and natural magic, and she is very good at using these two types of healing magic. Cobain has proposed that she stay in the school as a teacher after graduation. Cobain likes to study dead people.
Menedith is good at rescuing people and is going to work with her to research and develop new magic: real resurrection.
Werther did not comment on this, not wanting to dampen their enthusiasm.
Through the exchanges in Tyrosh, the Lord of Light faction has figured out that their so-called resurrection technique is actually just a passively stimulated healing technique injected into the human body. Only their corpse resurrection technique has some merits and can be retained.
The original owner had only a trace of consciousness, but after careful research by Witte, he discovered that resurrecting the corpse meant obeying orders to block the sword, while leaving the corpse alive with consciousness would only disobey orders. This method had long been abandoned by the predecessors of the Elder Scrolls world. The most noisy position was at the bow. The table was filled with all kinds of candies and cakes. More than a dozen young apprentices of different ages were noisy. When Werther looked up, he saw a few people climbing up the sail. He didn't bother to care about them.
, they know one or two introductory magics, and they can’t be killed even if they climb a pole.
Witte walked to the table where Cobain and his friends were sitting, and opened a book on the table: "Is this a list of children with magical qualifications in the Seven Kingdoms?"
"This is calculated by the school city and our visits to various places this year. They are still young, and when they reach school age, they will write letters asking them to come to school."
Coburn and others do not have Witte's ability to remotely detect magic power, but they can detect it through physical contact and inject a weak magic power into the opponent's body. If the reaction is pain and twitching, it means they are not qualified. If nothing happens, it proves that the body can adapt to magic power.
.
The list was all children no more than five years old. Werther looked at their last names and discovered a problem:
"I don't know if you have noticed that people with magical qualifications in the past have ancestors or Valyrian blood in their families. But since the dragon's magic surge, other families have also given birth to children with magical potential.
!"
"It's really true!" Coburn and others came over and told each other the history of the families on the list.
Werther looked at the playful little apprentices on the boat and thought of something deeper.
Families with strong magical qualifications naturally have a very high upper limit for their offspring. And these children born after the new magic tide rises, although they have magic qualifications, their upper limit is very low.
In the long run, there will inevitably be two solidified classes within the magicians. Now, regardless of their origin, as long as they are awarded the title of magician by the kingdom, they can get a good position with the lords everywhere and have no worries about living. And now there are three
Werther came from the same school, and they communicated frequently with each other. Werther dared to say that if he called on the magicians of the Seven Kingdoms to go to war, he would really get a response. But what about a hundred years later?
Werther became more and more annoyed as he thought about it, not wanting the magic system he created to collapse internally in the future. At this time, the captain came over with something to do, allowing Werther to temporarily get rid of his worries.
The one-eyed dragon captain Witte had seen a former veteran of the royal fleet who had made meritorious service in Tyrosh. After his eye was injured, he used the bounty to buy a merchant ship, specifically to run the passenger ship from King's Landing to Tyrosh: "Master Witte, I'll give you these bills first."
."

Witte took the bill, which was the cost of the boat trip, and the bill for buying meat for Oda Weiying. Taking the pen from Cobain, Witte signed and returned it to the captain: "Our
Everyone is already here, it’s almost noon, why don’t we set sail?”
Captain One-Eyed Dragon stroked his short hair: "Haha, Lord Witte, please rest assured that we will never waste time. My ship is famously fast!"
After the captain's bill was thrown to the staff on the shore, he immediately organized the sailors to paddle out of the port. The ship left the port and straightened its direction. The white canvas was put down, and Witte and his party began their voyage.
At the port of King's Landing, a luxuriously dressed businessman was walking towards the city with a bill when he suddenly saw a beggar sitting on the ground, holding his knees with his hands and shivering as he watched the sailing ship sail away.
The merchant was wondering why there were still beggars in King's Landing. Aren't they all shipped to Tyrosh by Duke Werther? He stopped and asked: "Hey, where did you come from? If you don't have anything to eat, you go to the Golden Robe."
Report there and someone will arrange for you to take a boat to Tyrosh!"
The beggar's face was covered by his greasy, knotted hair. He raised his head and only revealed one eye: "Going to Tyroshi? Is there anything to eat?"
The businessman said with a smile on his face: "Yes, not only do you have food to eat, but you are also allowed to work and earn money. Duke Werther is a very kind man!"
"Werther, Werther, ah!
"As the beggar said, he started holding his head and shouting in pain.
At this time, the businessman discovered that the beggar was shaking not because he was cold or his body, but because his hands were trembling and twitching: "What's wrong with you?"
The beggar glanced at the white sailboat that had turned into small dots on the sea. He stood up with difficulty and said to the businessman: "Thank you, I'm fine. I'm much better now."
The businessman felt pity for him when he saw that he was skin and bones from starvation: "I had a good young man who helped me shovel pig manure before, but he disappeared. I am still short of people. If you can't find a job, come and help me. I will pay for it."
Not much, but enough to keep you full."
"Can I do it?" The beggar's stomach made a sound with hunger.
"Okay, I'll let you take a bath and have a meal before you go to work. Come with me." The businessman saw what he said and walked ahead to lead the way.
"Thank you very much." The beggar didn't say much.
The businessman walked and said: "By the way, what's your name?"
"Jia Kun!" The beggar finally succumbed to his stomach and followed the businessman.
The businessman heard the footsteps: "Haha, a giant dragon made me the largest pork merchant in King's Landing. Doing business with Duke Werther is a pleasure, so I also imitate him and do good deeds everywhere."
"Ah!
"Jia Kun knelt on the ground in pain again, looking at his trembling hands: "Am I really a useless person and can't hold a knife anymore?"
Jia Kun, the top faceless killer in Braavos, was interrogated by Witte using unskilled magic. His soul was torn apart and left with sequelae. His hands kept shaking. When he saw or heard Witte's name, he even thought about it.
It will be extremely painful, and now even life has become a problem.
When the businessman saw him falling to the ground, he quickly asked: "What's wrong with you?"
After a while, Jia Kun, who was covered in sweat, answered the businessman: "I'm hungry!"
Seeing Jia Kun looking like he was about to die, the businessman began to worry about whether he would die on the road, but he didn't dare to keep him anymore: "I think you seem to be sick. Make it easier for me, but I don't know how to treat illnesses.
Let's do this, I'll have someone take you to the Navy Recruitment Office, where they have the Children of the Forest who can use magic to ease your pain."
"Would you like to be in the navy?" Jia Kun just wants to eat now. The navy is spent most of the time sailing and rowing, and there is no need to hold a knife, so it is a good place.
While Veidt was sailing back to Tyrosh, Dorne took another step towards civil war.
Nymeria officially issued a statement, and Anders' army entered Sunspear City to threaten Tristan Martell and his daughter to marry. She also killed Prince Oberon's bodyguard, and asked Prince Oberon to take charge of the following crimes.
Parade in shackles, insulting the Martell family. Afterwards, Doran and Oberon were burned, and Trystan was kidnapped. If he didn't stop his rebellion, Trystan would be the next to die. Anders could control the entire Dorne by just picking any kid.<
/p>
In the name of the first heir to Prince Oberon, Nymeria declared Anders Yinlenwood to be a traitor, and called for Anders to be killed and the members of the Martell family to be rescued.
Immediately afterwards, Count Anders Yinlenwood also issued a statement. Oberon had been exiled long ago, and he conspired with Werther to kill Quinyen Martell. This was parricide, and he would lose the inheritance rights of Dorne.
Burren made rude remarks and cursed the Yinlenwood family to death. He dueled with Oberon and surrendered him by force. There was no insult. The marriage contract between Tristan and his daughter was also similar in age and was approved by Prince Doran. As for the fire, it was an accident, or
Nymeria is the one who found someone to do it. Nymeria is the rebellious one, and Veidt is the mastermind behind it. The two of them want to replace the Martell family and let the Baratheon family conquer Dorne!
The whole continent knows that Kun Yan was killed by Werther, and that he had had a verbal dispute with Dolan and Yin Lunwood before. Both sides are justified, and there are many things that happened during the period that outsiders don't know. This is obviously a power struggle at the highest level, and there are many
The wise Dornish nobles wanted no part of it.
However, as the armies of the Stormlands and the Reach were stationed on the Bone Road and the Prince's Pass, the military blockade also cut off the trade routes, which greatly affected the income of the Dornish nobles.
Agriculture in the desert and arid areas was not developed to begin with. It basically relied on the trade of minerals, gems and spices in exchange for food to meet the growing food needs of the population. Now that the trade routes are cut off, lords whose territories are not adjacent to rivers are also forced to
The point of raising troops and starting a war.
There are supporters on both sides, and recruitment orders have been issued successively.
The issuance of the recruitment order means that all the young men in the territory must take up arms and join the army. A large number of farmers and urban civilians picked up the spears at home and the leather armor hidden deep in the box, and walked into the military camp. Dorn said
The concept of men and women is relatively equal, and women are also integrated into the army in large numbers.
The troops that Count Anders brought out before were all standing armies, but now both sides have stepped up their efforts to issue recruitment orders. He also spent all his wealth and sold everything he could sell into weapons and armor, vowing to defend the Yangtze River.
City of Halberd and Yinlonwood City, and immediately arranged for Tristan to have sex with his daughter to conceive a descendant of the Martell family as soon as possible.
At this time, the messenger crows were no longer of much use. Nymeria and Anders sent messengers everywhere at the same time, conveying their opinions to the originally neutral Dornish nobles, and promising that the neutralists would stand on their side.

The rest of Westeros regards the Dornish Civil War as a big drama.
Stannis even privately placed bets on various Dornish lords and well-known knights on their lives and deaths in the war.
When the news reached Count Anders, he was very angry. The odds of his own death were only slightly more than double. This is how much he doesn't think highly of himself!
There was a tense situation everywhere in Dorne, and there were only sporadic minor frictions. Basically, it was a pursuit between the messenger troops of both sides. There was not a battle involving more than 30 people. At this time, almost all the Dorne nobles were asking for help.
Tyrosh sent a letter asking Werther to speak.
Werther's ship was still a few days away from Tyrosh. There were many forces involved in Dorne's affairs. He deliberately delayed this period of time in order to put Count Anders into a desperate situation and force him to go crazy. Westeros
Nobles pay attention to honor and justice, so he must take the lead in this war.
