Chapter 260
"Strangler!" White Cloak pressed his sword with his right hand, staring coldly at the sad-faced old Archmaester, "Do you know what oneself is doing? We were invited by Citadel to come here, live under your roof, and eat Your salt and bread are now your guests. What is the difference between Citadel and Walder Frey?"
"For the peace of the Seven Kingdoms, for the well-being of millions, and to reduce disputes and wars , which is not honorable, but the simplest and most effective." Archmaester Perestan said with a smile.
"You... stupid! The rituals that have been passed down for thousands of years and 10,000 years are the spiritual skeleton of Westeros. Citadel should try their best to maintain those beautiful traditions and values, rather than actively destroy them—— Soul of the Seven Kingdoms." Barristan's eyes were flaming, gnashing teeth.
Dany shook his head and sighed: "Not who can represent the Seven Kingdoms and all the people, think about it yourself, Archmaester, would you like to be represented by Rat Cook and Walder Frey?
Maybe Rat Cook shouted 'justice for the Seven Kingdoms' while cooking the Andals King, or maybe Walder Frey shouted 'to reduce disputes and wars in the Seven Kingdoms' as he slaughtered North guests at a wedding reception, just like you do now."
"Because of you, Slaver's Bay and Free City have been devastated by war for many years. The people of the world are crying and wailing under the Dragonflame. In the foreseeable future, Seven Kingdoms will inevitably repeat the mistakes of Slaver's Bay. I am guilty, Citadel is guilty, I admit, But we reduced the number of deaths and wars, we are right!" Perestan face deathly pale, but his eyes are extremely determined.
"Are the Seven Kingdoms very peaceful and peaceful now? rites and music destroyed, morals are ruined, wars are endless, and the people are struggling." Barristan glanced at Dany, and said with a heartache, "You know why Queen Your Majesty traveled thousands of miles from Slaver's Bay came to Westeros? To investigate the enemy's situation?
Seven Kingdoms nobles still play Game of Thrones despite the fact that the winter is coming, only Queen Your Majesty, she is concerned about the safety of the people, and does not want to launch a restoration war in winter
Even when he learned that Seven Kingdoms had not prepared enough grain for summer, despite the critical state of Slaver's Bay surrounded by enemies, he brought two dragons to Westeros to investigate the situation of the people.
You can also see that she won the Tourney championship by her strength, and she made Citadel Archmaester admire her with her wisdom. She cares about the living conditions of the people, worrying about the people's lack of food in winter, worrying about the terrible trade deficit and the extravagance of the nobles created by Robert... ...
How can such a benevolent, wise and wise King not be worthy of Iron Throne? Lannister, who killed her husband, married her brother adultery, and usurped Iron Throne, is so worthy of your love?"
Dany touches his nose embarrassedly: Our advantages are so outstanding that even Barristan, a guy who never flirts and flatters, expresses them in unpretentious language.
Didn't you see the unyielding old Archmaester next to him, who looked like a revolutionary martyr, was also told that his face changed, and he looked ashamed?
"pu tong——" The old Archmaester was ashamed, prostrate oneself in admiration, and suddenly got up and lay on the ground.
"Be careful, there is something strange in the next room!" Old Knight listened carefully, his expression changed greatly, "They still have ambush swordsmen on both sides-"
"Boom boom boom Bang bang bang..." The sound of the bowstring was like a thunderbolt, and the sound was shocking to the eardrums through a layer of brick walls.
Accompanied by the dense sound of bowstrings like rain, "chi chi chi chi!"
In an instant, dozens of holes were pierced through the wall, and the seats and cups in the room were in disarray. dong dong" A few golden and iron collisions.
"Scorpion!"
The candle hit the ground and was extinguished, but by the bleak moonlight from the window, Dany saw the narrow room full of hedgehog-like bushes. Crossbow Arrows - iron essence arrows with a thick thumb and a person's height.
Unlike the ballista, the crossbow arrows here are also made of solid iron, but the crossbow arrows are not cylinders, rather like elongated and twisted willow leaves.
"The thief isn't dead yet!" Dany's exclamation reminded Perestan, who was lying on the ground with his head on his head, so the sound of filling arrows and pulling bowstrings could be heard from both sides of the wall.
"Ah, I'm going to die—" Dany dragged his tone, let out a shrill roar, and dismissed mental protection.
"Squeak—"
"Squeak—"
At the same time, a dragon's roar came from above the Citadel.
Well, when the red-nosed old Archmaester was serving soup for Dany, she sensed a slight crisis, and then immediately entered the Dreki state. There were clearly crisis fluctuations in Big Black's Soul, and then she began to summon dragon.
In previous conversations with old Archmaester, in addition to her inner indignation, she wanted to stall for time. Although the main body has always been hidden in the hotel, Barristan can't give up!
"Ahhh, Your Majesty, you can't die!" The old Knight also roared dryly, slashing the arrows and seats with his sword, and bent over to pick up the old Archmaester on the ground, waiting for him to struggle and shout , slapped the back of his head with a sword, stunned the old man, picked up the fur cushion on the soft couch, wrapped the old man around his shoulders, and rushed towards the door.
Uh, the old Knight looked in all directions and listened to the four roads. He had already discovered that the downstairs outside the window was noisy and the torch was bright. Jumping off the building was equivalent to walking right into a trap.
"dong!" ran to the door, the old Knight suddenly stepped aside, just avoiding a ballista arrow with a thick arm - he heard the sound of the ballista dragging outside the door .
"bang bang bang!" A few swords smashed the wooden door, but the old Knight didn't care, he bowed his head and rushed forward.
There is a treadmill-sized ballista outside the door, two gray robe Maesters are turning the winch, a Maester is lying on top of it to wind up, and there are twelve leather armor soldiers with hand crossbows all around, Seeing the old Knight rushing out, the three Maesters backed away in fright, exclaiming: "The thief is going to escape, let the arrows!"
"courting death!" He had recently turned half of Maester's head, twisted again, and slashed the two crossbowmen into four sections with his sword.
"dong dong dong dong dong..." The crossbowmen didn't miss a single shot, almost all of them hit the old Knight, and one or two arrows hit the "Queen Your Majesty" on his shoulder, which could make What is shocking is that the arrow that hit the old Knight wiped out a spark and then bounced out again.
"Ah, damn it, the armor piercing arrows that old guy from Lond sold us are fake!" The little brother shouted: "Use the sword, hack him to death!"
Faced with the siege of the iron armored Knight by the nine soldiers, the old Knight did not dodge at all, and exchanged "injury" for his injury, "bang bang ping bang ——”
“ahhhh ouch——”
in a flash, the old Knight was forcibly cut by eight swords, and a series of fire stars flashed on his body, and the huge force only slashed him He swayed east and west, but he also swung a blow, "Spinning Slash".
"crash-bang lah..." Four Swordsman were slashed, three soldiers had their stomachs ruptured, and fell to the ground dazedly holding their guts, the general was wearing plate armor , only a shallow scratch on the lower abdomen.
"Damn Lond, even the iron sword is fake..." A soldier lay on the ground and murmured his last words.
"ahhhh ——" The general who escaped his life by relying on the iron armor turned pale, pointed at the old Knight and exclaimed: "Valyria steel, he is wearing Valyria steel armor!"
" His sword is so sharp! It's also Valyria steel," reminded Maester, who was dodging far away.
Old Knight ignored them, and immediately ran "dong dong dong" to the stairwell after breaking through the encirclement.
The whole process is a long story, but in fact, it only took two rounds, and the old Knight chopped three swords, no more than three seconds.
But just as he was about to rush to the third floor, one silhouette appeared beside him.
It's Dany!
She stopped him and said: "Don't go up, there is an ambush on the roof, Maester knows the spiritual connection between dragon and Dragonrider, and has forty-fifty Scorpion, at least 200 archers."
"Which place has the least troops, I jumped out of the window and rushed over." Old Knight panted.
"No, you wait here first, I'll help you clean up the miscellaneous soldiers." Dany mysterious smiled, and then disappeared again.
Old Knight was puzzled when an exclamation suddenly came from outside the next moment building.
"Sun?"
"The Seven is above, a big Sun has risen from the sky!"
"Ah, what's going on, really Sun? But it's 10 o'clock in the evening now."
Old Knight found the window in the stairwell and looked around quietly, but he didn't see anything. A soldier came after him.
"Do you know who I am? old man Barristan Messier, get out!" the old Knight also roared in annoyance.
"What, Ser Barristan? Aren't you spies from Ironman's Bay?" The seven seemed to be stunned, the general put down his crossbow, stepped forward cautiously and asked, "You are really Ser Barristan the Bold? I'm Dakks Norton, Knight of Earl Hightower. I've met Ser Barristan a few times. Do you recognize me?"
"No."
"Then, You take off the face armor for me to recognize?" Knight Norton suggested.
"Okay," the old Knight also took a few steps closer, and then...
"Chi--"
"ding--"
About the same time, the old Knight sent a sword and stabbed the gap of the Knight's throat armor, and Norton suddenly raised his hand and shot it into the eye slit on the old Knight's face armor - unfortunately, old fogey already had it. Taking precautions, he ducked as soon as he lowered his head.
"You..." Knight Norton clutched his bloody throat, staggered back, shook his head and said, "No, you, you're not, not Ser Barristan, he , he won't be like you...shameless!"
"Hey, you guessed it, the old man is not him." White Cloak sighed in disappointment, swung his sword sharply, The throat armor shattered together, and Norton's head flew seven or eight meters away, just in front of the other six stagnant soldiers.
Three feet of blood sprayed, Knight Norton's headless body fell to the ground, and the old Knight shouted again: "get lost!"
"clang when... "A Swordsman dropped his crossbow and fled back, still howling: "Lord Norton was killed by Ser Barristan sneak attack!"
"I'm not...oh !" The old Knight stretched out his left hand blankly, as if he wanted to grab something that had passed away, but in the end he could only sigh helplessly and shook his head silently.
At this moment, the noise of the soldiers besieging Seneschal's Court grew louder, "Sun is down!"
old man ignored the archer who bent bow and place arrow downstairs, He quickly put his head out the window and looked up at the sky.
With just one glance, his eyes widened.
A dark red Fireball the size of a small house is falling from the sky at high speed. Although it is a Fireball, it gives a heavy sense of substance. It seems that a big star has really fallen.
