Game of Thrones: I loaded the Witcher system - Chapter 382

c373 I just came to take a look

King’s collar.

King’s Landing.

“Oberon came to us for help.”

Clay said to Daenerys.

The two of them are currently in the dragon’s lair in the northeastern part of King’s Landing. The three dragons of Galesos and Daenerys are temporarily placed in this large ruin that actually has no roof.

It’s not suitable in the wilderness, and it’s even less suitable elsewhere in the city.

Therefore, it is still left in this traditional dragon-raising place of the Targaryen family.

Clay didn’t believe that there was anything auspicious or unlucky about this place, or that there was any curse.

He is a demon hunter himself and has the power of magic. How can he not feel if there is any problem in a place?

“What are you going to do? Tyrell has already expressed his acceptance of our request. Frankly speaking, Tyrell is much more valuable than Martell.”

Daenerys stroked Drogon’s nose and turned to look at Cray.

“Indeed, the Reach is more valuable than Dorne. It has the largest population in the entire Seven Kingdoms and the vastest land except the North. Wow, how stupid this family must be. They have an army of 100,000, but they are always beaten by others. People despise.”

Daenerys knew that Cray was dissatisfied with the reality of the Reach being too big.

The current situation is purely due to the Tyrell family’s “unjust victory of the country”. It has too much internal friction and cannot mobilize the resources of the entire Reach.

Otherwise, they should have occupied a very important position in the power system of the seven countries.

The reason why the old lion is strong is because the Lannister family sits on the gold mine.

The Tyrell family is the same.

At the current level of productivity in Westeros, food is more valuable than gold to civilians.

As for the future, we can’t expect the Tyrell family to be idiots from generation to generation.

If a talented and strategic leader appears, it will be trouble for the entire country in the future.

Therefore, it is better to solve it as soon as possible.

“I plan to let Tyrell eat Oberon smoothly, and then have them turn around and fight the Lannister immediately.”

“Of course, we don’t forget to give Lannister a warning in advance, so as not to let Tyrell and his gang take the lead.”

There is no shame in being a double agent.

As long as you can achieve your goals, what’s wrong?

Daenerys is no longer as excited about the name Lannister as she was before.

After officially being on the stage for so long, she gradually understood.

We cannot blindly put our emotions above political reality.

Screaming and killing Lannister only gives anyone the opportunity to take advantage of you.

She understood what Clay was thinking. If her husband promised to defeat the Lannister, he would definitely do it.

But before that, we must squeeze out the last value from them.

“Will the Lannister realize that we are behind this and tell the Tyrells to get them back together?”

Daenerys raises a possibility.

Clay patted the dragon head stretched out by Galesos and chuckled:

“It doesn’t matter. There has been such a thing. Even if we admit that we did it, the fragile trust foundation between them no longer exists. It will definitely not be the same as before.”

“Whether House Tyrell takes action against the Lannister or not, I will send troops into the Reach.”

“They are taking action. Be obedient. I will give them a decent escape route. It is not impossible for me to even retain a weak title of ruler of the Reach.”

“If they don’t obey, hey, the rainforest is a good place. Who said that a humid forest can’t be lit?”

Clay climbed onto Galesos’s dragon’s back.

“The choice is theirs, I don’t care.”

Daenerys followed suit and climbed onto Drogon’s dragon’s back.

There, they have already made a pair of dragon saddles that are quite impressive. Although they don’t know if they are the same as those made by Targaryen in history, they can be used.

Who said that a dragon saddle must look like that, right?

Now, the two of them are going to Dragonstone Island to scout out the situation there.

Since Little Aegon’s embarrassing retreat from King’s Landing last time, the fleet led by Earl Grafson pounced on the sea without catching the “royal fleet” of Little Aegon who escaped.

Then, after obtaining Clay’s consent, he led the genuine royal fleet and tentatively moved forward in the direction of Dragonstone Island.

However, soon, the count brought back some interesting news.

Something doesn’t seem right about Dragonstone Island now.

Earl Grafson found many fragments of the fleet on the sea.

Apparently, there had been a naval battle near here.

But this is strange.

Among the known fleets, Stannis’ lifeblood was attacked by Young Aegon’s fleet and is now feeding fish on the bottom of the sea.

Clay’s fleet did not move, leaving only Young Aegon’s fleet near Blackwater Bay.

Theoretically, there is no opponent at all.

Later, Earl Grafson tried to land on Tidehead Island, but found that the Velaryon family there was now falling into leaderless chaos because of the death of Earl Montford Velaryon in the battle.

Moreover, there was no Aegon Targaryen’s army up there, and Lord Grafson occupied it almost without a fight.

Afterwards, through constant trial and error, Earl Grafson finally figured it out.

The current Dragonstone Island does not seem to be peaceful.

But for what reason, he really couldn’t figure it out.

The island is now no longer connected to any outside world.

The raven can fly in but cannot fly out.

All I know is that the island is often accompanied by unusual firelight.

Obviously, if there was no party up there, then killing seemed to be the only explanation.

Two days ago, Earl Grafson sent back the news that the fire on Dragonstone had completely stopped.

The flags hanging on Dragonstone Castle seemed to have changed somewhat.

However, it was too far away and his fleet could not get any closer.

That’s all that can be seen.

Hence, today’s trip where Clay and Daenerys rode on the back of a dragon together.

You have to figure out what your neighbors are doing, right?

If there is a chance, it is not impossible to solve this cancer by the way.

“Fly, Galesos.”

Clay ordered to the dragon beneath him.

Then, the blue-gold giant beast roared with its extremely powerful wings and flew into the sky.

Behind it, a smaller, but equally fierce and powerful black-red dragon followed with a roar.

This scene attracted the attention of the remaining residents of King’s Landing, as well as Clay Manderly’s military nobles.

Apparently, their king and queen left the capital.

Except for a few insiders, no one knew where they were going.

But this did not prevent them from making sounds of admiration at the dragon’s figure.

…

There is actually quite a distance from King’s Landing to Dragonstone.

But for two adult dragons, it is really not a difficult task.

Setting off in the morning, Clay and Daenerys had already crossed Tidehead Island in the afternoon.

They landed on the territory of the Velaryon family, and after taking a short rest, they were ready to continue flying towards Dragonstone Island further away.

This place is now completely occupied by the combined fleets of White Harbor and Seagull Town.

The distance between Tidehead Island and Dragonstone Island is quite close.

This is why Earl Grafson dared to send a fleet to conduct constant reconnaissance. Anyway, it was close. If it was discovered, just run back.

Clay drove Galesos and arrived over Dragonstone half an hour later.

Without looking at the noisy scene below, he was now very used to the fearful screams his enemies made at the dragon.

His focus was entirely on the flag hanging high above Dragonstone Castle.

It was not the red dragon flag on a black background of the Targaryen royal family, but a black flag with a golden skull embroidered on it.

Clay recognized this thing.

This is the flag of the Golden Company.

With a thought in his heart, and combined with Earl Grafson’s previous report, Clay understood that something big might have happened in this city.

After circling twice around Dragonstone and discovering that there was no dragon-shooting crossbow on it, Clay directly ordered Galesos to land in the forecourt of the castle.

He believed that Dragonstone Island no longer had any intention of killing him.

Daenerys originally wanted to fall down, but after she saw Clay making a gesture to herself on the ground, she understood what her husband meant.

This is to put himself on alert in the sky and put pressure on these people at any time so that they dare not act rashly.

The arrival of the giant dragon made Dragonstone Island jittery for a while, but Clay finally saw the person he wanted to see.

Ser Harry Strickland, leader of the Golden Company.

It seemed that overnight, the Targaryen power had completely disappeared from this land.

Clay silently lit a Quen shield on himself to prevent this group of people from playing dirty tricks, although behind him, the huge dragon head of Galesos was looking around warily.

“Your Majesty…welcome to Dragonstone.”

Harry Strickland couldn’t help but sigh in his heart when he looked at the unbelievably courageous king in front of him.

Clay’s next words turned this emotion into complete shock:

“What did you do with little Aegon’s body?”

Clay, who was holding a long sword and standing firmly on the spot, asked bluntly.

Harry Strickland’s first reaction was that there was a traitor in Clay Mandler beside them.

Otherwise, how did His Majesty know about this?

But if you think about it carefully, this is not right. The only person who knew about the execution of little Aegon was the person who slapped him.

And those people will never rebel no matter what.

“Your Majesty…you?”

Clay sneered:

“Don’t pretend to be deaf to me here. Your flag speaks for itself. I’ve been ignoring you before just to see what you can do.”

“I didn’t expect that your courage and determination were greater than I imagined. I think the governor of Pentos is either dead or under house arrest by you now, right?”

Once you see that there is no Targaryen flag here, plus the fire from before, do you still have to think about what happened?

The Golden Company, as well as the rest of the Essos mercenaries who had no obsession with Westeros, chose the decision that was most important to them.

Get off Aegon Targaryen’s broken ship as soon as possible, otherwise, if the ship sinks, they will also be drowned.

The nature of mercenaries is such that after Clay captured King’s Landing, he did not pursue the victory, but just wanted to watch the fun.

He didn’t want little Aegon to die in his hands, even though he knew full well that he was an impostor.

This is not a good thing for his future rule.

Unexpectedly, these mercenaries were so considerate and actually helped him get things done.

“Killed them all?”

As if he had returned to his palace, Clay walked directly past Harry Strickland and headed towards the hall of Dragonstone Castle.

Harry Strickland could only follow Clay.

One thing he knew very well was that the king dared to be so confident, and that was because he was sure that he would not dare to attack him.

Now Dragonstone Island is within the attack range of the combined fleets of White Harbor and Seagull Town at any time.

Morning and evening, there is no way to run away.

Moreover, the black dragon in the sky also clearly told him that if he dared to cause trouble, he would burn all the living people on the island!

Furthermore, they chose to kill Little Aegon’s family, so if they still want to live in Westeros, they are their only choice.

Based on these points, Clay Manderly was more comfortable on Dragonstone, which was still theoretically hostile, than at home.

“Everything has been taken care of, living and dead. In short, they are all under our control.”

Harry Strickland whispered.

“I can only say that you’d better do it cleanly. If you want revenge, they will only look for you.”

Clay reminded with a smile, and then, in the hall of Dragonstone Castle, he saw a lot of heads of other mercenaries who had followed the Golden Company here.

Second Sons, Stormcrows, Windblown, etc.

Seeing Clay walking in like this, they all stood up, and some even wanted to touch the dagger on their waist.

However, when they saw Harry Strickland walking in behind Clay, they all wisely gave up the idea of ​​taking action.

Clay originally planned this trip only to reconnoiter what was going on on Dragonstone Island, but now, he couldn’t not seize this good opportunity.

“I, Clay Mandler, have a long title so I won’t pronounce it. You know who I am.”

Clay looked around at the mercenary leaders with different faces and said directly:

“I’ll give you three choices. First, continue to resist. You can try to see if I can pick off your heads and walk out of here.”

“Second, go back to Essos. I will not pursue the issue of you being my enemy. You can do whatever you want from now on.”

“Third, for those who want to come to Westeros to settle down, I allow this. This war will definitely leave a lot of unclaimed land, which is enough to accommodate you.”

“However, most of your personnel will be dispersed, and only a small number of people will follow you to the new territory.”

“Choose for yourself, remember, I will not give in, because not killing you is already my greatest kindness.”
