Chapter 896
Casterly Rock is a high mountain that rises above the sea, hollowed out to create tunnels and halls.
Actually, if you have seen "The Lord of the Rings", it is easy to understand the existence of Casterly Rock, it is the lonely mountain of Song of Ice and Fire World.
Dwarves dig for gold and gems in Lonely Mountain, and the early Westerlands First Men dig for gold and silver in Casterly Rock.
The dwarves built the hollowed out lonely mountain into a mountain city, and the First Men built the gold-depleted Casterly Rock into the main fortress.
Lonely Mountain is near the huge freshwater lake Long Lake, with a Lake-town on the side; Casterly Rock is near Sunset Sea, and a Lannisport is built on the side.
The Lonely Mountain is occupied by Demon Dragon Smaug, the owner of the Lonely Mountain is homeless; Casterly Rock is occupied by Wights, the owner of Casterly Rock is almost dead, now it is the Demon Dragon's turn to save the city.
However, the owners of Gushan and Casterly Rock are different. Dwarves like mine caves and humans long for sunlight, so Gushan has no windows, just a main road and a secret passage, while Casterly Rock is full of "skylights". ".
Casterly Rock can even disguise itself as a modern metropolis with floor-to-ceiling glazing in the open-air windows.
Similar to the Pyramid Garden, a "stone garden" is also opened at the top of Casterly Rock.
Dany is now standing beside the date tree in the center of the stone garden, and Bran's red-eyed crow rests on a dead branch.
"This is the map of Casterly Rock's tunnels and rooms. The blue dots are the armory, vault, granary, wine cellar and fur, and the red dots are the Wights hardest hit area."
Bran's will connects with Dany's mental strength, and transmits a 3D Terrain Map of Casterly Rock to her.
“How many traces of Others have you found in the Westerlands?” Dany asked.
"I can only find a few large groups of Wights, which should be Others," Bran said.
paused, he hesitated: "We are in big trouble this time. There are no babies in the Wights team, and there are no babies left in the city. Do you understand what that means?"
"Thousands of Others?" Dany brows frowned, doubting: "Can babies be transformed into Others without sacrifice?"
"In Old Nan's Bedtime Stories , there are often episodes where Others ride Ice Spiders to hunt women, devour babies, and breed with humans the horrific offspring of half human half ghosts.
This section of emotion is certainly not all true, but It also contains three real secrets.
First, Others do not devour babies, but transform babies into Others.
Second, Others can combine with people and reproduce.
Finally, the Others are also graded, and the others that reproduce naturally have a more independent will.
When the Others King dies, the Others transformed from babies all die with them, but the natural reproduction' Half human half ghost's monster ', but still survives.
This is also the reason why the last Long Night ended, only less than a hundred years ago, and the second little Long Night appeared in the Wall.
It was the time when the Commander of the Night's Watch married the Others bride.
Last Long Night, one Others King and all the Others soldiers died, and the rest of the Others clansman returned to the Lands of Always Winter, Waiting for the next world pendant."
"Others body temperature is lower than minus fifty Draco, how can humans ensure that their bodies are not frozen during the reproduction process?" Dany's mouth twitched.
"Probably Magic." Bran said awkwardly.
Indecisive, quantum mechanics, can't explain it, travel through time and space.
It's reasonable, scientific, and Magic!
Dany complained in his heart, and then asked: "You mean, the bred Others are the strongest, the sacrificed babies are the second, and the plundered babies are the weakest after they are transformed into Others? bloodline to Others? What about the influence of the bloodline?"
Bran said: "Generally speaking, the more noble the bloodline, the stronger the Magic power when it is converted into Others through sacrifice.
Sacrificed After transforming Others, the baby of the sacrifice has a more complete Magic glyph than the plundered baby.
The will of the non-sacrifice baby will resist the transformation in some way, so it is generally weaker than the sacrificial baby. Others.
Noble bloodline sacrificers can become nobles in Others, ordinary bloodline sacrificers are Knights, and babies plundered to forcibly transform are ordinary soldiers.
You The Others who fought against Wall for the first time, probably Earl in Others, are very powerful.
In fact, the Others who appeared in the Battle of Winterfell are also very high-level, and they all come from Wildlings and First The sacrifice of the Men."
Dany nodded lightly, and he gradually became concerned: Others before the Wall, equivalent to the Jurchen outside the gate in the late Ming Dynasty; after the Wall, but north of The Neck The Others at the time, equivalent to the Manchus who began to include the Han army flag; the Others after The Neck, were the Manchus who set up green camps on a large scale.
Bran continued: "The lower limit of the transformed Others is higher. As long as the transformation is completed, both have Ice Magic and Necromancy, which turns dead corpses into Wights.
And natural reproduction is very difficult. That said, the progeny of reproduction is also subject to great uncertainty.
Like humans, newborns can be strong, tall, short, weak, deformed, and even dwarf.
The lower limit is very Low, many naturally born Others do not have Magic at all, except that their bodies are colder, and their strength is not as good as an ordinary person."
"What about the upper limit? Will the naturally born Others have a higher upper limit?" Dany asked.
After hesitating for a moment, Bran denied: "If the others that reproduced are stronger, they can directly choose one of the descendants of oneself to be the Others King, why force Benjin Stark?
Distance It has been 8,000 years since the last Long Night. Even if the birth rate and the ratio of eugenics were low, a great king should have been born.
This is not the case. The real Others King has never appeared.
It seems that the world Principle is blocking its birth.
In other words, when the Others completely exterminate the living, when the world enters eternal darkness and coldness, and when the Others family becomes the protagonist of the new era, there will be natural The Others King that reproduced appeared."
"Sizzle"
"Sizzle"
One green and one white dragon from Flying from the east, five Wyverns loaded with Valyrian Steel Knights followed.
Dany and Bran are not boring, standing in the Casterly Rock stone garden blowing the wind.
They are waiting for Little White, Little Green and the five Wyverns that follow.
"Let's start!" Dany closed his eyes, and Big Black, who was lying on one side, jumped up and spit with his two younger brothers Dragonflame, burning Wights on the Casterly Rock city wall.
The three dragons are all wearing Valyrian Steel apron armor and are not afraid of the javelin projection of the "Han Army Flag".
Actually, there are only three Others in Casterly Rock.
If Others dared to appear outside the city, they would have been discovered by Bran and killed by Dragon Queen.
Well, Bran, the Three-Eyed Crow, is incompetent, far less knowledgeable than Brynden, but also a bug-level spy.
Let him help detect the enemy, better than any Skinchanger animal companion.
In the Westeros local war, because of the existence of Bran, the human side actually has the information advantage.
Dany likes the asymmetrical war where her side has absolute information superiority the most. Well, she often fights in Slaver's Bay and is used to it, so she called Bran over as a spy.
"gu gu gu" A series of crow shadows flew out of Dany's eyes, turning into a line of fire, surrounding her.
Gradually, a golden red fire cocoon appeared on her body.
A total of 300 Fire Crows.
"Prepare for will cover, help me cover." Dany said.
"I'm afraid the effect is not very good, others are imperceptible, Others King must know." Bran hesitantly said.
"Don't you know my situation? Am I lying to the Others King?" Dany said indifferently.
"Okay!" The big crow leaped into the sky, and the huge Three-Eyed Crow will covered the entire Casterly Rock, isolating the two-kilometer radius within the wall of terror.
Well, it's equivalent to use mental will to build a Golden Bell Cover and cover the Casterly Rock inside, thereby blocking the perception of Spiritual God and destiny.
Don't doubt, in Westeros, as long as the Three-Eyed Crow wants to, they can hide any existence, even if the other party is True God. For example, when Brynden invited Dany to partner with R'hllor, R'hllor didn't even know when he was recruited.
......
"The wind is coming!" Dany's eyes suddenly turned into azure.
There is a breeze coming slowly around her, starting to rise winds, scudding clouds, Strong Wind Scattering Clouds, tornadoes.
Finally, in the Casterly Rock stone garden, a huge tornado with a diameter of 100 meters across Heaven and Earth stands.
It can be clearly seen that with the formation of the wind column above Casterly Rock, within ten kilometers of Casterly Rock, the north wind that has been blowing by Angry Roar has weakened.
Similar to Cold God extracting the North's cold air to cast "White Frost", Dragon Queen extracts the wind of the surrounding north wind and turns it into a controlled tornado.
Power will not be created out of thin air. The true meaning of Magic is to make up for what is lacking. Too much and it becomes Forbidden Spell.
"Domain" Bran said bitterly: "How is this possible, in a month, you will comprehended Wind Domain?"
"It's just a prototype." Dany Suspended in the center of the tornado, the blue cape is like a flag, squeaking in the wind.
"I thought you'd understand Fire Domain first," Bran said.
"I thought so too, but I'm in the Wind of a Realm every day, so I can't help thinking about it!" Dany seemed helpless, but he was very proud.
She also only realized the prototype of Wind Domain the day before yesterday and never really tried formidable power.
Before she could only use Fire Sorcery, a serious wind system witchcraft will not, but once she understands the realm, she can use Forbidden Spell.
No wonder she was chasing Gate God for wind system witchcraft, but Gate God said that oneself can't do any witchcraft.
Being in a hurry to be questioned, He impatiently warned her: pay attention to Song of Wind, with Song of Wind, witchcraft or anything is completely useless.
Now Dany finally understands that compared to "Dao", "shu" is really just a sideline.
The tornado gradually expanded, like a condom around Casterly Rock, the Lannister's dick.
"Fuck!"
Big Black, Little White, and Little Green stand in triangles on the city wall and surround Casterly Rock. At this time, they all spit Dragonflame towards the tornado wall. .
It's like throwing a ray of red dye into a milk-white vortex.
Dragonflame keeps spraying, and the redness in the wind roll gradually deepens.
"whiz whiz whiz!" Then, the fire cocoon around Dany expanded and landed at the bottom of Casterly Rock to mix with Dragonflame.
wind and fire mutually aid, the wind and fire together pour into the city gate at the bottom of Casterly Rock.
It's like a tornado becomes a cloud of red smoke, and Casterly Rock is a vacuum cleaner, sucking all the fire and wind into oneself's belly.
There is inhalation, and there is ejection.
Casterly Rock is divided into many layers, each layer has open-air windows.
At this point, the gust of wind blew black smoke and flames out of the window, and occasionally brought out the stump of Wights burning like a torch.
In addition to the warehouse for storing supplies, Casterly Rock has been thoroughly penetrated.
