Although they are said to be the envoys of the Golden Celestial Dynasty, they are actually a mighty and motley army with thousands of people. They wear all kinds of armors and the weapons in their hands are not uniform.
"Messenger of the Golden Celestial Empire?"
Viserys was slightly startled when he heard the announcement, and even didn't react, thinking that he had heard wrongly.
The Golden Celestial Dynasty is thousands of miles away from here. Although Viserys knew the name of the Golden Celestial Dynasty, he never expected that the other party would send an envoy to meet him.
For Xu Ying, how this situation evolved is actually a long story.
Since the Big Explosion in Qarth, the Temple of the Immortal could not withstand the huge fluctuations in energy, so a big explosion occurred. All the Immortals were killed, and only Xu Ying escaped from the back door.
The Palace of the Immortal is the core of the faith of wizards. The Palace of Immortality exploded and all the immortals were killed. Of course the wizards would go crazy if such a thing happened.
Therefore, the wizards who now have control of Qarth went crazy and hunted Xu Ying and the entire mission from the East. They thought it was this evil Easterner who blew up the Temple of the Immortal and killed him.
All immortals.
And Xu Ying and the members of the Golden Celestial Dynasty's mission are certainly not fools. Although Xu Ying has a clear conscience and the explosion of the Immortal Palace has nothing to do with him, he was the only one to escape from the explosion. Now it is difficult to argue, so
If you don't want to be killed by the crazy wizards, you have to escape first.
Xu Ying and the members of the Golden Celestial Dynasty mission took advantage of the explosion that had just occurred and no one had time to react and fled to the ship in a hurry, and then fled Qarth on the ship.
But of course the wizards did not let them go after they came to their senses, so they sent their best men to hunt them down. However, while farce was going on inside and outside here, something went wrong inside Qarth.
The reason is that since the return of the magic tide, the wizards have gradually recovered their lost power, and then reached its peak after the long night fell, completely controlling all the rights in Qarth, suppressing the Thirteen Giants, the Ancient Spice Guild,
Tourmaline Brotherhood and other forces.
These forces who lost their power were naturally dissatisfied, but they were unable to resist the curse of the wizards, so they could only swallow their anger.
However, at this moment, the Palace of the Immortal suddenly exploded, killing all the powerful immortals. The only remaining wizards, except for the main one, Bai Ya Pu Li, were all small minions.
Therefore, in the first few days, the Thirteen Giants, the Ancient Spice Guild, the Tourmaline Brotherhood and other forces had the patience to observe for a few days, but when they discovered that the remaining wizards were all vulnerable minions,
The counterattack of these forces began.
They organized people to kill wizards in the streets, attacked the gathering places of wizards, and even the royal family living in the Thousand Palaces of Qarth went out to hunt down these wizards.
These are enough to show how much anger and resentment the wizard has caused in the past year when he ruled Qarth. Therefore, now that the wizard's banner has fallen, many people jumped out and beat the drum.
The wizards encountered a counterattack by the local forces in Qarth, so they had to temporarily slow down their pursuit of Xu Ying and others and focus all their attention on internal issues.
Now that the magic tide has reached its climax, although the wizards suffered a major blow, they still had the strength and were not killed all at once. Therefore, under the leadership of Haiya Puli, they started a long stalemate and internal disputes with these forces.
fight.
As a result, the Golden Celestial Dynasty's mission was able to escape the pursuit of the wizards and continue its journey westward.
They collected intelligence while walking and learned that Viserys was now in Qohor, so they were overjoyed. The journey to Qohor and King's Landing was shortened by more than half for them, so they changed their itinerary and no longer headed towards King's Landing.
Instead, he headed straight for Slaver's Bay.
The delegation then landed in Meereen, the northernmost part of Slaver's Bay, and were warmly welcomed by the great local lord.
Slaver's Bay opens its doors for business. If you have money, you will be your father. They will do anyone's business. Even the Dothraki are their main channel for receiving "stolen goods", so they naturally welcome visiting envoys.
When the great masters of Meereen heard about the coming mission of the Golden Celestial Empire and knew that their destination was Qohor, they were not embarrassed. Even the three city-states of Slaver's Bay, Meereen and Yunkai, in the human coalition today,
Astapor also contributed a lot and sent many slaves to participate in the war. Although these slave soldiers were not enough to go to the battlefield, they were still able to do hard work such as carrying supplies in the rear.
And the great masters and good masters of Slaver's Bay are not generous or have conscience, but although these slaves are their property, food is more valuable now. It costs money to raise these people, even more than their own value.
They were so high that it would be a pity to kill them, so they were all given to the coalition forces.
In the final analysis, human beings are just a business to the great masters and good masters of Slaver's Bay. In a sense, the Night King's view of human beings may be similar to that of these slave owners.
The great masters of Meereen funded the convoy of Xu Ying and the envoy, and then attached their slave guard of 500 people, because it is still more dangerous on land than on the sea, especially for those of them with smaller numbers.
Teams, hungry and eager people will target them.
However, although the great masters funded the army, they did not support much food, only about seven days of food. Xu Ying even felt that these great masters were more likely to get rid of them.
But he still accepted the gift from the Great Masters, and they also equipped him with an interpreter who was proficient in the Golden Celestial Language and Valyrian.
After nearly a year of long journey, Xu Ying also learned a lot of foreign languages, but he was not proficient in it and could only barely communicate. Therefore, having a translator was of great help to him.
Then the former scout captain of the fifth base of the Chinese Empire picked up his old profession. Leading troops to fight was what he was really good at. Diplomatic missions were all done by force, so he led these five
The emaciated slave soldiers embarked on the journey.
During this period, he experienced some hardships, as well as critical moments, and participated in several wars, some of which were against White Walkers, but most of which were against other humans.
Xu Ying led his soldiers to fight and learn in this strange land, and slowly learned about what was happening here. Along the way, they gathered some fleeing people and defeated armies, and finally found Viserys.
, has actually doubled the original number of people, reaching a scale of 3,000 people.
"This man... is quite a talent."
And Viserys couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard these things.
