Chapter 89 Changes in King's Landing

Dragons have always been a question that Clay has been hesitant about.

There is no need to discuss whether the blue-gold dragon egg will hatch or not. Clay will definitely hatch it. After solving the problem of the Dragon King's bloodline, no one can stop him from having his own dragon.

But the problem is, this is not raising a cat or a dog, this is a dragon, which is even more exciting than raising a mammoth.

Not to mention the cost of raising it in the future, where to raise it is a big problem.

He is not like Daenerys. When the noble lords of Westeros see dragons, they will think of their ancestors' fear of being dominated by the Targaryens.

Look again, boy, you are not a Targaryen with silver hair and purple eyes. No matter why you have a dragon, I only care about what you want to do. No matter what, do you want to imitate Aegon I and become a conqueror again?

Therefore, this matter, so far, is an investment that is both helpless and frustrating, and has an extremely long return curve.

Fortunately, when the war begins, most of the attention in Westeros will be focused on the battlefield in the south, which gives Clay a more relaxed environment.

But even so, dragons cannot be raised in a densely populated place like White Harbor where there are eyes everywhere. Although the family can ensure the dragon's food supply, it absolutely cannot stop the news from leaking out.

This means that Clay must find a sparsely populated place outside White Harbor to raise the dragon. This place must have sufficient food sources and cannot be too far from White Harbor.

To be honest, this is an extremely high requirement, but for Clay, the key to this issue is not whether there is such a place, but whether he can be ruthless.

When I opened the map, I saw that there were three islands next to each other on the sea in the center of Biting Bay, south of White Harbor.

Their name is the Three Sisters Islands, consisting of Tianjie Island, Changjie Island and Miss Island.

Although it is nominally under the banner of the Eagle's Nest City, in fact, I swear to the old and new gods, the Eagle's Nest City has no energy at all there.

The Sunderland family that rules there is actually more like pirate leaders than nobles. They are cunning and capricious. The so-called loyalty is nothing in their eyes.

In the past, this island group, which was almost a paradise for pirates, derived a large part of its income from their deliberate efforts to induce the sinking of ships carrying property and then "pick up corpses" from the sunken ships.

Although Stannis, who had a tough temper and was as stubborn as a rock, was the Sea Lord, he led the royal fleet to help the Three Sisters Islands get rid of these bad habits.

But in fact, most of the pirates' dens in Biting Bay are on these three small islands. Let's put it this way, now Clay takes a sword and kills everyone he sees, but he doesn't kill eight out of ten people. wrong.

Historically, the North and the Valley were owned by the Three Sisters Islands, and protracted wars broke out.

Now, the Three Sisters Islands, which are almost completely independent, will never touch the ships in the Valley and White Harbor for the fleets coming and going. As for the rest, it is embarrassing.

Once this place is blocked, it will be a natural treasure land for raising dragons. As long as those big families don't come here deliberately to cause trouble, with the Mandalay family's fleet, there is no big problem in blocking the Biting Bay.

Send troops to the Three Sisters Islands, completely bulldoze this pirate den, and then use the fleet to block the Bite Bay. As long as this lasts for a year or two, the dragon will grow to the size that it can ride on and fly, and this place will have completed its mission. .

Although the Sunderland family has always maintained respect for the Mandalay family, that was now, not before. The blood feud in history has always filled the hearts of these islanders with hatred for the North.

For Clay, all he had to do was be ruthless and cause an incident where White Harbor soldiers were lost on the Three Sisters Island, and then send troops directly. It was such a good excuse.

But there is a prerequisite for doing this. War must break out and the northern border is in a wartime state. Sending troops privately is not a good time at this juncture.

Twenty days have passed since Clay came out of the wolf's den. Although the news from King's Landing became more complicated day by day, the signal Clay was waiting for never appeared.

However, Clay didn't care about this thing today, because today was a day of double happiness for him.

Last night, after he endured the severe pain in his heart for the last time, the remaining piece of Dragon King's blood was completely assimilated by him.

When the last blood clot disappeared, an unprecedented sense of power filled his body. He felt his magic boiling. He knew that in addition to Targaryen, there was a brand new bloodline of the Dragon King in the world.

His affinity for fire magic allowed him to save the 300 points of magic power for his Igni Seal and jump directly to level 2. He can now skillfully master the use of the "Flame Stream" of the Igni Seal. .

In addition to the bloodline issue being resolved, today, Raven, the fifth demon hunter he presided over who completed the mutation, officially joined the special team he organized.

Counting him, there are six people in total. In addition to Raven, who finally completed the mutation, Krissen, Jaylen, Garland, Desmond and Clay himself, the demon hunter who is now standing under the Poseidon Tower, all Five seals have been learned.

Clay customized special armor for each of them. It was not a heavy armor with extremely strong defense, but a special armor that took into account both defense and flexibility.

During this time, Clay started training with Krisen, and then as the mutation continued, he started to teach one after another. They were able to release the seals they wanted to use very smoothly.

In addition, Clay began to train them in swordsmanship and began to instill in them the concept of individual combat.

Most of the time, these people's positions on the battlefield will be in the enemy's weak rear. As for the frontal confrontation of the army, their personal local advantages will be of little help to the victory or defeat of the entire war.

The first thing Clay taught them was to abandon the damn sense of honor and stop having stupid thoughts about whether they would be defeated if they did so. This kind of thinking would kill them.

The second point is that Clay wants them to learn to think independently and how to complete tasks by themselves without being under their own command.

In the previous war model, the soldiers at the bottom would not bring their brains to the battlefield at all. The commanders, usually nobles, would let them fight wherever they wanted. They would rush forward when they won and disperse when they lost.

But this kind of undisciplined and mindless behavior is absolutely unacceptable to Clay.

Fortunately, after several rounds of screening by the two most experienced old men in White Harbor, none of the remaining ones were fools. Although these ideas were too avant-garde, these new recruits of demon hunters quickly got on the road.

In the courtyard, five figures stood on the ground, like five javelins stuck in the ground. Clay looked at his masterpiece with a smile of great satisfaction on his face.

But this slightly proud excitement did not last long. An uninvited guest barged in regardless of the guards' obstruction.

With his back turned, Clay heard the footsteps far away and frowned and looked back. When he saw who it was, he was startled.

Chief Weishui, why is he here?

People from Wolf's Den will never come to White Harbor unless there is an urgent matter. This is the rule.

There was a thump in Clay's heart. Before Clay could speak, a letter from Raven was thrust into his hand. The frighteningly dark-faced Water Controller shook off the guard who wanted to pull him away, and said in an extremely serious voice:

"My lord, there are changes in King's Landing!"

I'm coming!
