Chapter 254
Looking at the densely packed dragon-related books, Dany almost exploded with anger, both angry at the stupidity of Targaryen ancestors, and hating Citadel Maester's vicious mind.
Especially when she took out the book "Dance of the Dragons", and after looking through it, she seemed to feel the same way, as if oneself had become the mother of the twenty dragons who died unjustly.
Dance of the Dragons is not the work of a Maester, but the execution of the Dragon Extinction Plan.
That's right, the Dance of the Dragons, which cost House Targaryen the Divine Spark and finally opened the Dharma End Times, was launched by Citadel Maester as the driving force behind it. At that time, among the Maesters who served the top aristocrats, at least ten people got involved.
First of all is the cause of Dance of the Dragons.
Two hundred years ago, House Targaryen was prosperous, not only many clansman, but also more than 20 dragons were hatched.
House Targaryen at that time was almost in its strongest state ever.
At that time, Viserys I and Queen Arryn gave birth to three children. As a result, only Crown Princess Rhaenyra survived, so Rhaenyra has been cultivated as a crown prince.
Not long after Queen Arryn died, King married a daughter-in-law at Oldtown House Hightower and had three sons and a daughter.
With a stepmother, King Viserys did not become a "stepfather". In order to consolidate the position of the eldest daughter, he not only made the young Rhaenyra sit on the Small Council, but even ordered the national nobles to swear to defend his daughter's rights.
Under normal circumstances, Rhaenyra has no problem in inheriting the throne, it is legal and reasonable, and the national nobles even swore an oath.
The "stepmother" queen is from Oldtown!
Maester's "dragon extermination plan" officially begins.
There is no need to participate directly, as the driving force behind the scenes, they easily encouraged the Hightower Queen to abolish the idea of "Crown Prince".
But Rhaenyra not only did not make a big mistake in the court, but did a good job. King also loves his eldest daughter very much, and his father and daughter get along very harmoniously.
Plan to scrap Crown Prince failed.
But it doesn't matter, every noble has a Citadel Maester by his side, Citadel can easily set off a storm of public opinion: the stepmother queen is at odds with the Crown Princess, and Prince Aegon may compete with a different mother elder sister for the heir .
In fact, this is nothing, the nobles swore that Rhaenyra did not make a mistake, even if the conflict between Queen Hightower and Crown Princess became public, others would not really think that "Crown Prince" can be replaced.
Until Viserys I died, Princess Rhaenyra was at Dragonstone - Dragonstone Prince was almost the equivalent of Crown Prince, but Citadel deliberately delayed Raven's flight to Dragonstone.
They instigated the queen to push her son directly onto the Iron Throne, resulting in an established fact - in fact, reasonable people know that doing so will inevitably lead to civil war, because Rhaenyra has been the Crown Prince for thirty years, the old king. She has also been helping her develop power, and "Crown Prince" can be described as full-fledged.
Let's put it this way, Aegon (II) Prince, who was pushed to the throne at that time, did not want to compete for the throne with a different mother at first.
After all, Rhaenyra has been the Crown Prince for so many years, and the King father also supports her so much. Her younger brothers have no intention of usurping the throne at all.
As a result, Maester, through the mouth of Lord Commander of the Kingsguard Criston Cole, told Prince Aegon: You also know that your mother and Princess Rhaenyra open strife and veiled struggle for more than ten years, right? When she gets on Iron Throne, she will definitely kill your mother and your younger brother younger sister. Don't doubt, even if you refuse, Rhaenyra will know what happened today, she will let those of us who are rebellious?
This is also true, Aegon has been pushed to sit on the Iron Throne, even though he struggled to run down, ran to the eldest sister and knelt down and cried: I was forced.
In order to stabilize the rule and establish authority, Rhaenyra 80% will not let him and his mother go.
So civil war broke out according to Maester's script.
The Maesters didn't stop when the civil war broke out.
Among them, the King's Landing thugs attacked Dragonpit, which is the most horrible to see. A full five adult dragons suffocated and died in the hands of the thugs holding axes and iron swords.
One of the passages reads: "Hobb the Hewer quickly learned the skills Maester Dick taught him, and Dick gave him an iron axe made by Qohor's first-class steel essence, and let him enter with the mob. Dragonpit.
Hobb lived up to our expectations, with Shrykos (an adult female dragon) trapped in chains, and he leapt nimbly up her neck - right at the third joint.
Hobb lived up to our expectations.
Hobb lived up to our expectations. p>
Our research was right!
Shrykos could neither turn his head to spit Dragonflame at him, nor shake his neck and throw him off, and Hobb was facing where the dragon's skull was weak - just Temples like human skulls.
While screaming the name of The Seven, he slashed Shrykos' head with an axe, 15 times, and was named the 'Dragon Wing Point' bone by Archmaester Dennis It was finally smashed.
Alas, it is indeed a Legendary creature that represents the upper limit of the world's physical creature strength, even the weakest 'wing point' is more tenacious than steel, and the axe blade is rolled... .
Scorching blood and brains spurted out, Hobb's head was melted into a pool of rotten flesh at that time, but he also completed the mission of oneself and became a rare 'dragon-slaying warrior' in since ancient times.
We've been promoting Hobb the Hewer's Legendary story since then and have reduced the number of times he slashes Shrykos to seven.
Well, in Hobb's story, he's exercising on behalf of The Seven Human justice is the hero who killed 'devil'.
When he shouted the last of The Seven - 'Stranger', The Seven responded to his request and gave him divine power, and finally chiseled Worn through Shrykos' scales and bones, and smashed into her brain..."
Luckily Dany isn't a real body, otherwise she'd have broken a silver tooth.
"Damn, damn!" She cursed loudly, venting her anger, as if it wasn't Shrykos who was crushed to death, but her "son" Big Black.
Well, there is also a coloring picture on the page of Hobb the Hewer riding on a dragon's neck and splitting a dragon. It can be seen that Shrykos is also a Black Dragon.
The more I look back, the more I understand the truth of "Dance of the Dragons", but Dany is silent.
Yes, Citadel is behind the scenes to start the Targaryen civil war. But in "Dance of the Dragons", Targaryen oneself is too sinister and stupid.
If God wants to destroy it, he must first make it crazy.
For that iron chair, almost every Targaryen became a Kinslayer.
In addition to Rhaenyra and Aegon, there were several Dragon Family illegitimate children who overran the king. In those years, King's Landing was City Head Changes The Great King's Banner.
Targaryen's Divine Spark was completely smashed to pieces by a bunch of unfilial sons.
“Why be a lord when you can be a King?” said an illegal child named Hugh when he became king.
Faced with doubts from others, he is righteous: "This is the right of Conqueror, I have a dragon under my crotch!"
Well, in order to enhance his own strength, Rhaenyra allows Targaryen illegitimate The child goes to the Dragonstone to conquer the dragon, and Hugh is one of them. As a result, the illegalimate child was untrustworthy at all, and several betrayed the Crown Princess.
"Dance of the Dragons", which led to the withering of the dragon, Citadel has two points of responsibility, Targaryen is guilty of five points, and the rest of the Seven Kingdoms nobles share the remaining three points of responsibility.
If all nobles follow Stark's way of keeping their oath, Dance of the Dragons doesn't raise at all.
Yes, the North people during the Dance of the Dragons did not violate their commitment to King Viserys oath, they have always been on the side of the Eldest Princess Rhaenyra.
Of course, North people's hard heads don't mean they are stupid. Dozens of dragons fight and oneself participate in it, isn't it courting death?
Although they fulfilled the oath, their participation was not high, and they only sent two thousand cavalry to form the "Winter Wolves" to go south to the King of Qin.
"A bunch of idiots, sooner or later, this King will kick you idiots out of the family tree!"
Dany threw the book back foul-mouthed.
Afterwards, she left the "Dragon" bookshelf and decided to read books that made people feel good. The Valyria Secret Art can make people feel good!
Just like the "Shaolin's Tendon Changing Scripture" and "Dali Six Meridians Divine Sword" columns in Lang Huan Bliss are empty, the Valyria Witchcraft column is also empty, with only a few notes.
Dany took a look at the thickest book, written by a Maester named 'Gorney' in Citadel a thousand years ago.
Gorney traded as a slave in Valyria and worked for the Sorcerer Council for 50 years, eventually learning the magic of Valyrian "telecomms".
Well, it is the sorcery that the Grand Sorcerer connects with the city-states of the world through the Magic Energy Ball.
The last time Dany found Marwyn was by accident. The distance between the two sides is too close, the glass candle is from Valyria, and the rookie Alleras has no sense of protection.
This parchment book, which is half the thickness of Xinhua Dictionary, only records the magic power of "Magic Power Network".
Unlike glass candle one-to-one instant messaging, a complete "Magic Power Network" can store information and process multiple sets of data in parallel.
For example, when Dany communicates with Marwyn through a glass candle, it can only be done one-on-one, and both parties light the candle, and the candle cannot use other witchcraft.
If "Magic Power Network" is established, even if Marwyn is not "online", even if he is separated by thousands of miles, Dany can leave a message for him, and vice versa.
If Dany and Marwyn are chatting through the "Magic Power Network", and suddenly, a third party or a fourth party comes to Dany, she doesn't need to close the "chat window" with Marwyn, she can concentrate on multitasking. Communicate with multiple people at the same time.
If Quaithe happens to find it—the right hand wrist imprint flashes Soul fluctuations, Dany doesn't need to look for a glass candle, and can project oneself's mental strength to Quaithe directly through "Magic Power Network" around. At the same time, she can chat with other people.
The "Magic Power Network" invented by Valyrian has several points of Magic Internet flavor. The fluctuation of mental strength of Sorcerer is like a data stream, which can be transmitted instantly between the ends of the earth.
However, Maester Gorney also said in the preface that "Magic Power Network" has two fatal flaws: First, the magic power ball must be built on the volcanic crater, and the magic power in the lava is used to maintain daily operations ; Second, the Grand Sorcerer with perfect inheritance must be able to create the magic formation of the central node.
"Hey, why is this book so thick, with hundreds of thousands of words, I can't remember it after reading it!" Dany lamented again and again.
Maester Gorney's two fatal flaws are nothing to her at all, she has the perfect inheritance, and Dragonstone is Targaryen's ancestral land, Iron Throne can not, but Dragonstone must be taken back.
Dragonstone is built right above the volcano.
"It really doesn't work, I can only grab it!" In the end, she clenched the teeth and made a decision in her heart.
Put the tome down, and Dany continued rummaging.
She guessed right, Citadel brought back glass candles from Valyria, along with a lot of materials for learning meditation.
In the history of Citadel, more than 100 people have studied the Meditation technique Archmaester, and also left precious cultivation notes for future generations.
