Chapter 74 Bloodline and Seal

Sir Malone brought a total of more than 200 people from White Harbor, which was a little more than the people Clay brought to the Twins. Clay went to the Twins for a long trip, and bringing 200 cavalry was also a declaration of force. consideration, but why did Sir Malone need to bring so many people with him when he came to pick him up?

If you include the crew, there are about 500 people on these four ships. In the vast and sparsely populated northern border, some small nobles can only mobilize this number of troops unless they are fully mobilized. It is really not a small number. .

Under Sir Malone's constant urging, Clay and his troops all boarded the ship. Sir Malone did not waste a second and directly gave the order to the fleet to set sail back to White Harbor.

Looking at the old Sir standing on the bow of the ship, who looked like a soldier all over his body, Clay was full of questions. Finally, he walked to Sir Malone and asked:

"Sir, is this...necessary to be so anxious?"

Sir Malone glanced at the heir to White Harbor with a headache. He wandered around Essos for two years, and then returned to White Harbor for only ten days in total. The rest was spent traveling to various places.

Why can't this young master stay quietly in White Harbor? This won't work, it seems he's too busy. Go back and find the Earl to arrange some things for him so that he won't have to run around all day long.

However, he really couldn't blame him for this emergency recall. This was the order of Count Wiman. He was not very clear about the specific reasons. He only knew that although the several caravans sent by the family to the further south were not attacked, they were all brutally treated. inspection.

You know, when the caravan passed the checkpoint, it was checked up and down with the golden dragon. But this time, the inspectors did not accept the golden dragon that had been stuffed into their hands. They pretended to be sanctimonious and forcefully inspected the goods. Checked.

Obviously, this is an extremely unusual thing. Some important figures have paid attention to the sudden increase in caravans in White Harbor after returning from Clay, and are very interested in knowing what these goods are.

Sir Malone, who didn't know the specific arrangements between Clay and Earl Wyman, certainly didn't understand the situation, but that didn't stop him from realizing that someone was investigating Clay.

"Yes, your grandfather and I will feel relieved when we see you staying in the Mermaid Palace."

Sir Malone didn't want to explain so much. More Earl Wyman would tell his grandson that he didn't want to talk about it, so he changed the topic:

"You have stayed in Twin River City for such a long time, tell me, what have you gained?"

"From my observation, the second-generation Freys in the Twins City are fighting fiercely with each other. Marquis Walder Frey has done some balancing, but he is ninety years old. I think the effect of his actions is It’s not big, but it intensifies the conflict.”

Nodding slightly, Sir Malone also knew something about the internal situation of the Frey family. Suddenly, he glanced at Clay, his face straightened, and he asked seriously:

"Boy, I know what you are going to do here. Don't tell me that you got involved in the fights between these Freys and brought us back a marriage contract!"

Regarding this question, Clay immediately denied it, but thought to himself, I did get an engagement for the Mandalay family, but it was an engagement that I had no intention of executing.

It was difficult for him to say these words to Sir Malone in front of him. It would be most appropriate to return to White Harbor first and talk to his old man.

…

It was actually difficult to fall asleep on the rocking ship for people who were used to living on land. Clay lay in his cabin, looking out the porthole at the sea sparkling in the moonlight.

For such a long time in Twin River City, he has been trying to wrap the blood with his own magic power, and hit the Three-Eyed Crow to give himself the blood of the Dragon King that remains in his heart.

Most of the blood mass, which was about three to four centimeters wide, had been assimilated by Clay's efforts. The price was that Clay had to experience severe heart pain almost every night. Some people thought he was a heart attack patient. .

With a thought, the Demon Hunter system opened on the retina:

Clay opened the inventory and took out the blue-gold dragon egg lying quietly in the inventory.

The dragon egg was still cold, but Clay had a feeling that the magic power contained in the blood in his body seemed to make him have a strong feeling for this dragon egg. He had a premonition that when the blood of the Dragon King completely filled his body, he would wake up. moments among creatures.

Under the moonlight, the blue-gold dragon egg still looked gleaming. This feeling of being able to see but not be able to reach it made Clay extremely uncomfortable, but he had no choice but to gain power without losing time and effort. How could it be possible? .

After taking back the dragon egg, Clay focused on the five unlocked seals. He had been busy with various things during this period, and he had no time to take a good look at his abilities.

In his testing and experience, the actual effect of these five seals of the demon hunter is not as good as the seal ability of the Griffin School in the world of the demon hunter, and it may also be related to the low level of his seals.

Generally speaking, Clay feels that this is like the seal ability possessed by the Wolf School, which has relatively comprehensive abilities. People are greedy, and of course he wants to make greater progress in the seal.

For ordinary witchers, the sigil ability may be basically finalized the moment the mutation is completed, and subsequent growth depends entirely on continuous polishing over time, but Clay's witcher system helps him save this step.

Now his seal abilities are all at level one. To upgrade, he needs a huge accumulation of magic power. Upgrading from level one to level two requires 300 points of magic power. This is comparable to the series of side effects caused by his mutation into a demon hunter and immunity. The magic power is consumed.

Clay went to the Church of the Seven Gods in the south and tried it. No matter how beautifully carved the statues were, in Clay's view as a demon hunter, the mixed magic power entwined on them was pitiful and intermittent.

Sure enough, the Three-Eyed Crow was right. The Seven Gods, who have a wide range of believers in the south, may be in extremely bad condition, or their own strength may be so weak.

I don’t know if the power of the Seven Gods can be used by Clay in the cathedral in King’s Landing and the church in Old Town. Clay, the three-eyed crow, the agent of the old gods, has already seen it. He is very curious. The Seven Gods are here. Are there creatures in Westeros who uphold their will?

But so far, if Clay wants to obtain enough magic power, he can only go to various heart trees in the north to obtain it. This time when he returns to White Harbor, this matter will also be put on the agenda.
