The second war between humans and ghosts finally came to an end.
Perhaps because of his victory in the first battle, he personally killed a White Walker, which caused King Robert Baratheon to feel a little swollen.
He arrogantly wanted to stop the Night King on the Great Wall and completely defeat the Army of the Dead.
However, it turned out to be a huge defeat.
The coalition forces fled to Winterfell in embarrassment, and the cold wind of death blew over the Great Wall and enveloped the land in the north.
Winter seems to be getting colder.
In distant Valyria, the temperature here is also dropping sharply after a heavy rain.
"Huh~"
"Huh~"
The red-haired girl was hiding in a dark cellar, her plump chest rising and falling gently, and she was breathing heavily.
In the silence of Li Jianzhong, only the girl's breathing could be heard clearly.
"damn it"
She gritted her teeth gently, and her body was covered with blood. She didn't know whether it was her own or someone else's.
Since entering the ruins of the royal capital of Valyria, she has encountered a series of horrific things that have almost caused her to suffer a mental breakdown.
A lot of things happened in the past few days, causing the situation to take a turn for the worse, and the expedition team was completely torn apart.
The commander of the expedition, Wilder Meguia, the nephew of the Volantis Tiger Party Archon, was attacked and killed by a black shadow falling from the sky after entering the royal capital.
The opponent was extremely fast, even faster than the werewolf they had encountered before. He jumped directly from the ruins of the city wall and took the opponent away.
While waiting for Wilder's cronies to catch up, only half of Commander Wilder's body was left on the ground.
The commander is dead.
The expedition team, which had been depleted of people, suddenly faced a collapse situation.
Because this is far from the beginning of the nightmare.
The ignorant and fearless people tried to explore the secrets of the gods for profit, and finally encountered terrible punishment.
Only now do people understand why so many people who explored the ruins of Valyria in the past rarely made it out alive.
Plague, curse, monster attack...
Danger spreads like raindrops, and only a few can dodge them one by one.
When crossing the sea of smoke, all the people who were tricked were still unaware of what they had done.
A few days after arriving at the ruins of Valyria, these people all began to suffer from disease outbreaks.
At first, the commander thought it was a plague, the light rain, or there was something wrong with the fruit in the island's water source.
However, after he killed all the people suspected of being infected by the plague and burned all their corpses, the nightmare continued.
As the team marched, people kept falling down and never getting up again. The bodies had marble-like patterns and bleeding from all the orifices.
At the beginning, a group of survivors such as Viserys, Mia, and "Iron Fist" Guts did not realize what was happening.
But it wasn't until more and more people died that they suddenly realized that it was these people who had absorbed the gray mist who began to fall ill.
However, faced with such a serious situation, Wilder, the commander of the expedition, still refused to give up.
He recklessly ordered the team to move on.
His uncle had entrusted him with such an important task, and he had paid such a heavy price and was about to arrive at the royal capital of Valyria. Wilder was unwilling to give up at this time no matter what.
Then only a few hundred people were left in the team and arrived at the rapid red river outside the capital of Valyria.
Viserys didn't know what color the river was originally, but now it was as bright as blood and emitted an unbearable stench.
There should have been a magnificent bridge here, but due to the apocalypse, only two bridge piers are left.
Of course, the expedition team did not have the ability to build the bridge, so they began to cut down trees and build some small boats to transport people across one by one by carrying ropes.
However, on the river, the expedition team once again encountered some underwater monster attacks, and finally paid a very heavy price before crossing the river.
In fact, after going through so many hardships, many people in the team have given up.
But under the current situation, even if they were afraid, they would not dare to leave the team and escape. Otherwise, in Valyria, which is full of monsters, if they leave the team, they may directly enter the belly of the monster.
Afterwards, only a few sparse expedition teams finally entered the ruins of the capital of Valyria.
This once magnificent royal capital now has only ruins left, but they are all wildly grown weeds. The city gate has long since disappeared, leaving only half of the city wall that has not collapsed.
And it was at this time.
The team had just cautiously entered the ruins when a black shadow jumped down from the half of the city wall and snatched away the commander who was walking at the end unprepared and gnawed off half of his body.
After the death of the commander, internal strife broke out in the team. Some people wanted to leave, while others thought that since they had gone through hardships and reached the depths of the Valyrian ruins, how could they return empty-handed?
Then a conflict broke out between the two sides.
And Viserys naturally sided with the latter.
He hasn't figured out the secret of Black Mist yet, how could he leave so easily.
Mia also had reasons to continue exploring. Gus and several mercenaries who had been on the same ship hesitated for a while but firmly stood on Viserys's side.
Because they seemed to be aware of it, they seemed to be able to avoid a lot of dangers by following this silver-haired young man.
However, before these people could come up with the result of their quarrel, another monster attacked the expedition team. This time, people started to flee in all directions without unified command.
At first, Viserys and the others were still hugging each other, but in the end, the mercenaries died after an attack, and Mia also lost contact with Viserys.
She killed a monster by herself, was seriously injured, and then hid in a cellar under the waste on the outermost edge of the city.
"I'm afraid I can't escape anymore."
In the dark.
Mia leaned against the wall of the cellar alone, thinking silently in her heart, and at the same time bandaging the wounds on her body with strips of cloth torn off from her body.
"hiss"
"Hold!"
Pain hit her when her fingers touched the wound. The red-haired girl gritted her teeth slightly and uttered a curse word.
However, she didn't realize that there was also a pair of eyes staring at her in the darkness.
Its breathing gradually became heavier, and its saliva dripped down.
However, the red-haired girl was completely unaware of this and was still gritting her teeth and trying hard to bandage the wound.
