Chapter 227 Crystal Coffin

Poseidon Ferrego was also shocked by the situation of the magic armor. He did not expect that after putting the magic armor in the treasure house for a while, it turned into a piece of ice.

Driven by curiosity, Ferrego stretched out his hand and tried to touch the ice.

But he was immediately stopped by Linde, and Linde also said to him very seriously: "If you want to die, just touch this ice directly."

After saying that, he pointed to the mouse at his feet, half of his body had been sealed in the ice. It seemed that the mouse touched the ice with its nose, and then was completely frozen. Finally, as the ice expanded, it was frozen little by little. The package arrived.

Seeing this scene, Sea King Ferrego couldn't help but shudder, immediately retracted his hand, and asked Linde: "Why is this happening?"

"Because the craftsmen and wizards of Qohor modified my armor drawings without authorization and tried to restore my magic runes, the magic got out of control." Lind turned to look at Sea King Ferrego and said, "This set The armor is not my armor, it is just a poor imitation. Did the people from Qohor tell you anything when they sold the armor to you?"

Ferrego's face was gloomy. He didn't expect that the armor he bought with a lot of money was just a poor imitation. He was immediately angry with the people in Qohor, and naturally he didn't intend to hide it for them.

Ferrego said in a deep voice: "Baron from the Soyd family said that they are still building another piece of magic armor, which should be better than this one. He told me that if I want it, they are willing to trade it to me first."

After hearing this, Lind was silent for a moment, recounted the cause and effect of the incident, and said: "A few years ago, I entrusted Illyrio, the governor of Pentos, to find the craftsmen of Qohor to build a set of magic armor for me. It's all made of Valyrian steel, and I provided the design drawings for the armor. Ten or eleven months ago, news came that the armor had been built, and Illyrio was looking for someone to escort it. The armor came back, but a month later, news came again that the escort team was plundered by the Dothraki. Everyone was killed and everything was robbed, including the magic armor. . Later, Illyrio sent people to investigate and found that no Dothraki LS organized the robbery, and he also discovered that not long after the robbery, the Soyd family who commissioned the armor had secretly contacted some The Dothraki, following the Soyd family, sent a team to Braavos to meet with you, and then you announced that you had obtained a piece of magic armor."

After listening to Lind's narration, Ferrege couldn't help cursing Qohor again, and then said: "So you suspect that your set of Valyrian steel magic armor fell into my hands. Found me."

Lind shook his head and said: "No, actually when we were in Pantos, I guessed that the magic armor in your hand was not the same as mine, because Governor Illyrio also sent someone to investigate and asked The person who attended the magic armor show, what the magic armor looks like, I knew it was not my armor from the way he described it.”

"Since you know, you still come to me." Ferrege looked at Linde with a dumbfounded expression.

Linde shrugged and said, "Although I know it's not the case, if I don't see it with my own eyes, I still can't be completely sure. And maybe you have some clues about my armor here."

Ferrege took a slight breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and then said: "You are right, I do have some clues that you may be able to use." As he said that, he paused, thinking about it. He used several clues as bargaining chips to make a deal with Lind, but in the end he gave up because he felt that Lind was a big trouble and the most important thing was to send him away from Braavos as soon as possible, so he told him directly instead Linde said: "As far as I know, the Soyd family has a team of Dothraki bandits who specifically help him rob caravans and deliberately disguise themselves as Dothraki to rob."

Lind said solemnly: "You mean the Dothraki who robbed the transport team are from the Soyd family?"

Ferrege shook his head and said: "I didn't say anything. These are all your own thoughts, Mr. Linde. If you need confirmation, you still need to go to Qohor. After all, you can only know if you see it with your own eyes." Not true, what do you say? Lord God’s Chosen One.”

Seeing Ferrege blocking him with his own words, Lind couldn't help but smile, and nodded in agreement: "Indeed, Qohor really wants to go."

After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave the treasure house, but after taking two steps, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at a very obvious crystal coffin deep in the treasure house.

At this time, he suddenly remembered what happened to Maester Gubet, the crystal coffin that was transported from the ruins of the ancient civilization in the Sothoros continent, and the crystal coffin during the peace talks between Pentos and Braavos. , was given as a gift to the Sea King of Braavos.

So, he immediately turned around and walked towards the crystal coffin.

The Sea King Ferrego who was following behind saw a trace of doubt in Linde's actions and immediately followed him. Soon the three of them arrived in front of the crystal coffin.

Ferrege stopped five or six meters away from the crystal coffin, and then reminded Lind, saying: "This crystal coffin is very evil. Don't get too close. If you get too close, you will be cursed." ”

However, after being reminded, he felt a little regretful. He felt that he should not remind Linde, but should find a way to make Linde stand next to the crystal coffin for a longer time and let him be cursed.

However, Linde did not seem to heed his reminder and still walked to the crystal coffin and stood there, looking at the corpses of ancient civilizations lying in the crystal coffin.

The moment he saw the corpse, Lind knew that the ancient race that Master Gubet was talking about should be the White Walkers, because the ancient civilization race lying in the crystal coffin was exactly the same as the elves in White Walkers. The only difference is that the corpse in the crystal coffin is more like an intelligent creature with flesh and blood, unlike the White Walkers, which feel more like a dead thing made of ice.

Linde's eyes quickly shifted from the body in the crystal coffin to the runes on the surface of the crystal coffin. Without exception, these runes were magic runes, which contained extremely strong magic power. This magic power not only protected The corpse inside the crystal coffin will not decay, and it also contains some curse effects, cursing those who try to get close to the crystal coffin.

However, this kind of cursed magic power may be fatal to ordinary people, but for Linde, as soon as the magic power penetrated into his body, it was immediately swallowed up by the rune of the unknown king.

"You know the ancient civilization race in the crystal coffin." Sea King Ferrego, who was standing in the distance, watched Linde's thoughtful expression and couldn't help but guess.

After hearing this, Lind turned to look at Brother Ferret, then nodded and said, "Yes, I know him, he is the White Walker."

Ferrege and Quiro, who had been standing silently aside, were stunned after hearing this. They really did not expect to hear such an incredible answer from Linde.

After a while, Ferrege, who came back to his senses, couldn't help but question: "How can this be a White Walker? I remember that the rumored White Walkers are the kind of creation that looks like ice and snow. This is what you came back from beyond the Great Wall back then." Tell it to your king when you get to Westeros."

Lind added: "He is indeed a White Walker, but he is the ancient civilization race before becoming a White Walker."

Ferrego hesitated for a moment and said: "You mean that a long time ago, this race ruled the entire world and built a large number of ancient and state-of-the-art buildings. The heroes of this race became the gods we believe in now, and then in When this race was at its most glorious, they gave up everything they had now, ran to the land of eternal winter, and turned themselves into White Walkers, enemies of all life." As he spoke, he said with a hint of ridicule: "I feel like Lind The ending you gave seems to be inconsistent with the narrative of the entire story, and can only be regarded as a poor plot written by a third-rate playwright. "

Obviously, Ferrego should have also read the works of Bachelor Gubet and knew that there was a civilized race in ancient times that built most of the magnificent monuments in the world today.

"Whether it is in the continent of Westeros, Essos, or Sothoros, there are legends about the long night and eternal winter." Lind looked at Ferrego calmly and said, "If This legend is not just a legend, but the real long night and eternal winter are more severe than the legend. All living creatures are frozen by the extreme cold. Cold is everything in this world. What do you think you can do to survive in such an environment? Survive?"

Hearing Linde's inquiry, the expression on Ferrego's face became solemn. He seemed to have seen the scene of the blizzard in the Shivering Sea freezing the entire Braavos, just like the frozen Tibet in front of him. Like a treasure trove.

Quiro, who was silent on the side, was also attracted by Linde's words, and thought along with Linde's words, and finally came to a conclusion, with a look of panic on his face, and couldn't help but say: "They can only Only by becoming a part of the cold can you survive, just like the White Walkers.”

Quelo's slightly hoarse voice echoed in the treasure house. Ferrego couldn't help but shuddered when he heard these words, and looked at the crystal coffin with fear, fearing that the corpse in the crystal coffin would turn into The White Walkers crawl out.

Now that he had seen the ancient crystal coffin and confirmed the relationship between the ancient civilization race and the White Walkers, Lind had no intention of staying any longer and turned around to walk outside the treasure house.

Seeing Linde leaving, Ferrege hurriedly stepped forward and followed him, standing close behind Linde, as if this treasure house was full of unknown dangers, and he was only safe with Linde, the chosen one.

When Linde walked out of the treasure house, he stopped again and turned to look at the crystal coffin, which was mostly obscured by the display rack. Looking at its intact appearance, he felt that something was wrong.

However, he did not think for too long. When the bronze door was slowly closed again, his thoughts were interrupted. He felt that even if there was any problem, it had nothing to do with him. It was the matter of the Sea King of Braavos anyway.

After returning to the surface from the underground palace, Linde was ready to leave and had no intention of continuing to stay in the Neptune Palace.

Perhaps because the matter has been resolved and the magic armor has been retained, Ferrege also relaxed. Although Lind made him lose some face, he felt that it was not embarrassing in front of Lind, the incarnation of the god. It was no big deal, so while asking Quiro to send Lind out, he also invited Lind to attend the Moonsinger's Redemption Day celebration a few days later.

However, Lind was already in the mood to stay here. He couldn't wait to return to Pentos and then go to Qohor, so he rejected Ferrego's kindness.

Later, when Quiro led Linde to leave the Neptune Palace, the Neptune guards stationed at the arch bridge sentry post all showed surprised expressions, because they had no memory of someone like Linde passing their inspection and entering Neptune Palace. temple.

As the chief swordsman, Quiro did not explain to these Neptune Guards, but after Linde left, the Neptune Guards' guarding methods should be changed. Not to mention other things, at least they should take targeted measures to prevent poisons. Some preparation.

After leaving the Neptune Palace, Linde went to the Courtyard of Black and White to say goodbye to Jia Kun, and Jia Kun gave him a dagger.

This dagger is black and white. The black and white of the handle and the blade are opposite. The shape is very strange.

Although this dagger is not made of Valyrian steel, it is no less sharp than Valyrian steel, and this dagger is a magic weapon. Lind can see the fluctuations of magic power from the dagger.

Jia Kun told Linde that the dagger was an extremely ancient sacred object, with the blessing of the Thousand Faced God's Eternal Sleep attached to it.

Linde didn't understand why Jia Kun wanted to hand over the sacred object of the Thousand Faced God to him, but he could see that Jia Kun wouldn't tell him even if he asked him, so he chose to accept it happily, and in return, he gave a dragon Rune necklace for her.

Before leaving Braavos, he also went to the Temple of the Storm God, met with his chief high priest Liga, and told her about his meeting with Ferregor.

However, Li Ga's attention at this moment is not at all on whether to have a good relationship with Neptune. She is more concerned about the wonderful piece of music that Linde played in the Moon Pool today. She hopes that Linde can The score of this tune remains in the Temple of the Storm God as an anthem for future Storm God celebrations.

Linde also did not expect that a performance by the Moon Pond would spread throughout the city so quickly and cause such a sensation.

At that time, there were a large number of bards, singers and musicians from all over the world beside the Moon Pond. Many of them memorized part of the music. In addition, Huayue and Yeying, two courtesans who were proficient in music, also memorized it. part of the tune.

After that, they restored the music on the spot and played it with other instruments. Although others were still excited to listen to it, everyone felt that the content of Linde's performance was very different.

At this time, some people also thought of Lind's other identity, so they found the Temple of the Storm God, hoping that Priest Liga could let Lind leave the music score. Many people even hoped that Lind could leave the violin playing method.

This made Li Ga also curious about what kind of magical music Linde played that made the whole city crazy, so after seeing Linde, she made her request immediately.

Naturally, Linde would not refuse. He kept the music score and clearly wrote the origin of the music on the music score.

As for the method of playing the violin, Linde has no choice but to wait until he has free time to write it down and have it delivered to him at that time.
