The Night Watch is a very special military organization. It existed a few years ago like the Great Wall. It was an independent organization when the North was an independent kingdom. In addition to exiling criminals here and providing supplies, the king generally does not
Interfering with their internal operations, unless the fleeing Night's Watch is captured. The invasion of the Andals, Aegon's conquest, and Robert's replacement have not changed its nature. 棷
The legion also owns the land south of the Great Wall. The first twenty-five miles were donated by the King of the North when the Great Wall was built, and are called land grants. The last twenty-five miles were donated by Queen Alysanne of the Targaryen Dynasty, and are called land grants.
It is called the New Land Grant. In total, it is a vast land fifty miles wide and as long as the Great Wall. The towns and villages here pay taxes to the Night Watchmen in the form of goods or labor, which also solves part of the Night Watchmen's living material problems.
The selection of the Commander-in-Chief maintains the tradition of being elected by the Night's Watch. The work of Witte and Robb as witnesses has ended. Bunyan was inconvenient to express his opinions on how to deal with the Night's Watch, so he went to the door to talk.
"Is it possible to breed little white spiders?" In order to distinguish them from ice spiders the size of war horses, Witte called spiders the size of palms little white spiders.
"I asked the night watchmen to help breed the worms first. There is a large snow-covered forest in the land grant. By digging holes in the forest, the worms can be placed on the roots of the trees to suck the sap. After they become adults and can reproduce again, I will lay the spider eggs.
After trying to hatch it, it was refrozen." Robb didn't try it blindly.
Witte: "You are responsible for this matter, and it may become another source of income for Lindong City."
Robb shook his head: "It won't work in Winterfell, nor in other places in the North. The little white spider is a species that was born near the Great Wall. I asked my men to try it with spider eggs, less than thirty miles south of the Great Wall.
The spider eggs will turn black and spoil."
Witte: "There is a possibility that they are a species of ice spiders specially bred under the Great Wall. Maybe they can only live on the Great Wall." 棷
The two chatted for a while, until the quarrel in the hall became louder and louder, and Werther and Robb entered again.
At this time, Bunyan stood with one leg on the chair and one leg on the table, pointing at Janos Slynt and scolding him.
Not to be outdone, Genos slapped the table where Benyan was standing, blushing and arguing with Benyan.
"One slaps the table and the other hits the leg, why don't you talk!" Werther unleashed a master-level group harmony technique before the hall became quiet.
The other night watchmen in the hall were all blushing and thick-necked. They did not draw their swords, but they all rolled up their sleeves and prepared for a fight. Benjen Stark has been the chief ranger for many years and has a strong family background, but he has just taken office.
It is necessary to convict most of the night watchmen in the hall at once. He does not have that prestige yet, and forcibly dealing with him will definitely trigger a mutiny.
"As a witness, I don't care how you night watchmen handle the internal problems of the legion, but you can't fight with each other! You treat each other as brothers, and I am not your brother. If anyone does something here, I will throw him out to feed the dragon." Witte sat back.
He sat on the chair and put his feet on the table and said relaxedly.
"The Night's Watch should support each other and talk to each other if you have anything to say. I see you are arguing endlessly. Commander-in-Chief Bunyan, Genos, Duke Werther has many years of experience in managing the army and has also served as acting prime minister. He can give you some advice.
I am the heir to the North, and I can be an impartial witness." Robb dragged a table and chairs to the front with his hands, allowing Genos to sit alone in the front and face Benjen.
Genos sat down on the chair at the encouragement of the Night's Watch who supported him. Robb, Veidt and Benjen, the commander of Eastwatch, Carter Pike, and the commander of the Shadow Tower, Lord Denys Mallister, faced him.
Robb's seemingly fair seating arrangement revealed that the place where Genos sat was actually where the noble prisoners awaiting trial sat. Genos, who was corrupt and had no regard for the law, did not react and nodded gratefully to Robb. "Commander Benjen, what do you plan to do with them?" Robb asked.
Bunyan: "According to the oath and law, the night watchman is not allowed to marry or have children, and his organs should be cut off if he is found with a woman."
"What kind of oaths and laws are you talking about?" Genos yelled: "Our oaths and laws all mention women, but they don't say female vampires!"
"Yes!" The night watchmen in the hall supported in unison.
Robb: "Maester, bring me the code of the kingdom."
After the death of Maester Aemon, the maester who took over the position of Castle Black was called Kans. He was in his forties and bald. After hearing Robb's words, he called the two night watchmen and ran to the Crow's Nest Tower together. 棷
After everyone waited for a short time, the three of them returned to the hall carrying more than a dozen thick tomes.
The book of the Kingdom Code is very large. The cover is wrapped in cooked cowhide. Each page is longer than the forearm. It is made of refined sheepskin. Each book is as thick as a fist. The parchment paper is relatively thick, so the Kingdom Code with many words is enough.
There are eight books.
Robb, Bunyan, Janos and the maester opened the code together to find out the legal provisions on adultery, fornication, fornication, etc., as well as matters between men and women, and checked them word by word.
A low-level magician can rely on hard work, but becoming a high-level magician depends on brains. At first, Wit didn't want the disciples he had worked so hard to teach to lose their lives because of breaking the law, so he also opened a legal course at the King's Landing Magic School. The boring legal regulations
, Ashara, Robb and Jon could have lost a lot of hair back then.
Werther can recite the full text of the kingdom's code, but now it's time for Robb, the heir to the North, to win over people's hearts. Werther clasped his hands behind his head and rocked his chair with his feet to watch his disciples perform. Eddard and Caitlin's
The political skills are very average. The heir will have a large number of ministers to teach Robb how to handle political affairs. This is the advantage of having his parents alive.
"Look! Do you see it clearly? The law says that having sex with a prostitute without paying is a crime. Are vampires humans?" Genos yelled, pointing to the law in the book.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"There is a rule." Bunyan himself discovered that there is indeed a loophole in the law. 棷
"Uncle Benjen, I think since it's not in the law and the oath, then it's not guilty. If you think this is not good in the future, you can write it into the military regulations of the Night's Watch." Robb turned sideways and whispered.
Bunyan is the second son of the family and has not received much education as an heir. He thinks that the Night's Watch should be punished, but now he wants to be acquitted after listening to Robb's words, which is a bit embarrassing.
Robb took out the frozen little white spider eggs and worms under the table: "I have been studying this for a while, and Uncle Benyan should have learned about it. This kind of spider can only live on the Great Wall. I will give them to you."
."
Benyan was surprised. He had heard Robb say that the silk threads produced by these little spiders after hatching from their eggs were very valuable: "Leave it to me?"
Robb: "Yes, it was given to you by the Stark family and Duke Werther! You organize the Night Watch to breed it, and the silk threads produced can be sold to Lindong City, or directly exchanged for supplies."
By now Benyan also understood that Robb was asking him to use little white spiders to win over people's hearts.
The new Commander-in-Chief, Bunyan, quickly made a ruling. The Night's Watcher who had a relationship with a female vampire did not break his oath or violate the laws of the kingdom. He was not guilty! There was cheering in the hall, and everyone from Janos's faction looked on gratefully.
Robb. 磷
Witte also laughed after hearing this. There will always be loopholes in the law. Professionals will be responsible for this kind of thing before he time travels. Remember, the crime of raping a woman only targets female victims. If a man is raped by a man, he can only commit suicide.
Accepting it as bad luck, it was not until seven years before the time travel that the legal definition was clarified, and being a man was also considered a crime.
Benyan also announced that the Night's Watch would start breeding small white spiders, which would bring a large amount of resources to the Night's Watch, and Yu cheered. When he heard that it was a gift from Stark and Veidt, the smart man also understood that Benyan
The commander-in-chief cannot be defeated.
Werther made another request to Benyan: to search for the wildlings outside the Great Wall and tell them how well the people who had arrived in Tyrosh were doing, so that the rangers who left the Great Wall could work hard to send the wildlings to Tyrosh.
.
Witte has completed his inspection of the Great Wall, and Witte has no intention of going outside the Great Wall. There is no White Walker to be found in the vast and inaccessible snowfield. As long as the Great Wall does not fall, he will have nothing to worry about.
Werther and Oda Weiying returned to Winterfell first, and Eddard had notified all the lords in the North about the news of catching the living ghosts and vampires. They were all on their way to Winterfell, and Werther was in Winterfell.
Stay here until the team escorted by Robb arrives.
Ed and Caitlin stood in front of the bedroom window, looking through the glass at the dragon head bigger than the arrow tower on the city wall, and the five figures standing on the city wall. Not just the two of them, there were people standing in front of the windows all over the castle.
People are watching.
"Aoda Weiying, get ready to start! If you feel something is wrong, stop immediately!" 棷
Werther stood on the city wall wearing the shirt given by Ed, ready to try new magic. He begged Alda Weiying for a long time and worked hard before he agreed to try it. For the Green Seer series of magic named Nature,
Aoda Weiying simply doesn’t like it, there is no other reason.
The two direwolves sat obediently on the city wall, not daring to move. Rickon stroked Shaggy's head and raised his head to count how many scales there were on Odawain's chin. Bran still looked like a child.
, Use your fingers to calculate how long the dragon’s horns are.
The Green Seer has not contacted Werther for many years. When Werther was with Bran, he tried to contact the Green Seer several times without success. Hearing from Bran, he still learned magic in his dream once a week. Werther knew that the Green Seer was still alive.
He is not dead, but his magic power and physical functions are declining. Perhaps he is experiencing his own death process.
"Ha!"
Witte roared. Different from the magic in the Elder Scrolls system, the feeling of magic this time was something he had never experienced before. Witte closed his eyes and experienced it carefully.
Smell, Werther first smelled the smell of horse manure and dog shit in Winterfell, and then smelled the freshness of snow and the smell of sulfur from the dragon.
He stuck out his tongue and tried it. The smell seemed to fill his mouth and tongue. Werther quickly closed his mouth. 棷
Werther heard the heartbeats and breathing of two people and a dog beside him, and also heard a low sound like the hammering of war drums. This was the heartbeat of a giant dragon.
The hair and skin on my body feel the wind. Before, I could only feel the direction the wind was blowing from, but now I can distinguish every piece of snow mixed in the wind.
His senses have been heightened, and by combining these feelings together in his mind, Werther can outline the entire Winterfell with his eyes closed.
Opening his eyes, Werther looked around.
"Master Wit, your eyes are like those of a dragon!" Rickon stood in front of Wit and shouted loudly.
Werther's eyes turned into the look of Audawei Ying, the orange-red eyes were like flames, and the pupils tightened in the sunlight, leaving only a black vertical line.
"Is this the world you see? Aoda Weiying." Witte whispered to himself. Now that the connection is strengthened, the dragon can still hear it. 棷
"Your vision is also very strange." After finishing speaking, Audaweiying turned his head to the snow-covered forest in the distance.
The world that Werther saw in his eyes had changed. The trees in the city that were not covered with snow lost their green color, and the thick snow outside the city could not cover the hares hiding underneath, and there was still a trace of smoke floating in the air.
The white stuff is slowly being absorbed by his body. The dragon is not a vegetarian, has green blindness, has heat vision, and can also see the magic spreading in the air.
And Aoda Weiying also has Werther's vision, and there is an extra green color in his sight. Compared with the two, Werther has gained more from this magic.
"Beast vision? You have to change it to dragon perception when you come here. The shapechanger is really magical." After the experience, Werther lifted the magic.
Being able to see the magic in the air, Witte feels that it will be more convenient to study new magic in the future, especially large-scale magic and magic circles.
In the castle.
"Witt's magic test is over? Why didn't anything happen?" Caitlin, who had no fire, no electricity, no light, asked with an expectant look on her face. 棷
"Several of the children are magicians, and they have some magic but nothing happens." Ed didn't understand either, but he couldn't show timidity in front of his wife.
Caitlin turned back to look at Ed, the corners of her mouth raised: "When did you become a magician?"
Ed: "Well~~ I'm not a magician, but I am the father of six magicians!"
"It's been a long time since I've seen Sansa." Caitlin doesn't have Tiashaara and Jon.
Ed: "Didn't Werther tell you that Sansa is now studying with Tyene and she will be a high-level magician next year?"
"Sansa will be 16 years old next year and I will choose a good husband for her."
"Yes, I have received many marriage proposal letters from nobles this year, and I have been suppressing them."
Now Ed also understands that once you become a magician in the Baratheon Dynasty, you will gain a transcendent status. Those customs in the past are somewhat inappropriate for magicians.
"But she is a girl and she will always get married!" Caitlin still insisted on her opinion.
Eddard didn't reply. He was thinking that his eldest daughter Ashara was not married yet. He didn't know if she had a crush on someone, or if someone looked down upon her because she was an illegitimate child. And Jon, who had become the Commander-in-Chief of the City Guard, was looking for
It should be easy to find a suitable girl.
"Witt is back, I'm going to talk to him about things." Edd hurriedly left. Talking about these topics with his wife would inevitably involve Ashara and Jon, and the two would quarrel again.
The lords arrived at Winterfell one after another. A simple high platform was built outside the city wall. There was an iron cage next to the high platform, which was prepared to imprison the White Walkers. There are huge tombs underground in Winterfell. Once the White Walkers enter the city,
These ancestors of the Stark family will crawl out of the cemetery, and Werther does not want to raid their ancestral graves.
It was the first time that Werther met most of the northern nobles. People in the south said that they were rough and tumble. They still believed in the old gods and retained many traditions from thousands of years ago. They were somewhat different from the areas in the south that believed in the Seven Gods.
.
After drinking a few glasses of wine, Werther quickly chatted and laughed with them. Especially what happened in Castle Black, their topic always revolved around the beautiful female vampire. 棷
A few days later, Robb's escort team finally returned to Winterfell.
