Chapter 354 Unlucky Stark

Stannis could not refuse Lind's offer. He said that he would leave for the Wall as soon as possible and would ask the Onion Knight to send Shireen to Summerhall.

Following Shireen to Summerhall were her mother Selyse Florent and some servants, including Patchface.

Those powerful men in the Stormlands and Dragonstone who were unwilling to become the Night's Watch would escort Stannis all the way to the Wall and then leave.

As for Melisandre, she will follow Stannis to the Great Wall to fight against the aliens beyond the wall, and Melisandre also said that the Red Temple of Volantis will send people to the north to fight against the aliens beyond the wall when necessary. God's War.

After Linde negotiated the details of taking over Dragonstone Island, he left. However, he did not return to Summer Hall, but flew towards the north, to the Great Wall of Despair.

Now that a commander-in-chief has been selected for the Night Watch, it is natural to tell them as soon as possible so that they can prepare to welcome him, so as not to be in a hurry later.

When Linde arrived at the Great Wall of Despair, it was already the early morning of the next day. Before he got close to the Great Wall, he could clearly feel that the power contained in the Great Wall of Despair seemed to have increased a lot, and this sudden increase made Linde feel Got some bad premonitions.

When a bad premonition arose, Linde changed direction and instead of flying to Castle Black immediately, he transferred to Ice Scar City.

Because this was not the first time Lind came to Ice Scar City. When he controlled Neltharion to land in Ice Scar City, the guards of Ice Scar City did not show too much panic, but they were still afraid of the ferocious appearance. Neltharion, stay away.

Lind stepped off the dragon's back and asked the commander of Icescar City who was coming over: "Bran and Rickon of the Stark family came here to take refuge. Where are they now?"

"Rickon and the people who escaped this time were sent to Castle Black, but..." the commander of Ice Scar City paused, turned to look at the ice cave, and said, "But Brynden Smith Tucker is staying with Lord Vilas in the ice cave now."

Hearing this, Linde frowned and walked into the ice cave.

After entering the center of the ice cave, Lind also saw Bran, and Bran's situation was just as he thought. Like Vilas, he sealed himself in an icicle. At this moment, he seemed to be entering something. He was in the state of a shapeshifter, his eyes turned white, and his whole body completely blended into the surrounding ice.

Before Lind could speak, Willas said first: "Stannis is very suitable to be the Commander-in-Chief of the Night's Watch. I will cooperate with him when the time comes."

"You should know very well that I'm not here for this." Lind looked at Willas dissatisfied, then pointed at Bran who was possessing an animal, and asked: "What's going on? ? "What are you doing with the Three-Eyed Crow?"

"With the addition of Bran, the power of the Great Wall will become stronger. Even the Horn of Winter could not have any impact on the Great Wall." Vilas calmly explained: "This is also the third eye. Crow decided that instead of going to the underground palace to take over the position of the Three-Eyed Crow and stop the White Walkers for a while, it would be better to stay here and join forces with me to stop the White Walkers, which would be more effective." As he said this, he suddenly thought. What did he say? "By the way! He also asked the children of the forest there to leave. Now those children of the forest are heading south. Remember to ask the night watchman to receive them and then send them to me."

When Lind was about to ask about other things, Bran suddenly showed a painful expression, and then blood flowed out of his seven orifices. His eyes suddenly returned to normal, and he said in panic: "He is chasing me!"

Linde had turned on his special vision and saw a special magic force coming in through a channel opened by Bran on the Great Wall of Despair, trying to attack Bran directly.

And Linde also moved very quickly. He directly drew out the sword of the Lost Knight from his waist and threw it in the direction of the movement of the magic power. The magic power was pierced in one go, and the power of the dragon rune attached to the sword of the Lost Knight was Disperse this pinned magic power.

Linde only heard a shrill scream, a few cracks appeared on the ice, and an extremely cold whirlwind was generated out of thin air. It turned around in the ice cave and everything returned to normal.

"I warned you not to run too far, but you didn't listen. Not only did you run to the land of eternal winter, but you also ran to the city of the White Walkers." Willas looked at the listless man very seriously. Bran said: "Do you really think that you have the ability of the Green Seer to be fearless? There are too many powers in this world that can directly kill you from the soul level. I hope you can remember today's lesson in the future and truly Know what it means to be cautious.”

"Yes, teacher." Bran said with a frustrated look.

Lind used telekinesis to control the sword of the Homeless Knight stuck on the ice back to his hand, and then asked Bran: "What did you see?"

"I saw a lot of White Walkers, and they were all worshiping the female White Walker, just like worshiping gods. I also saw an ice dragon, a very big ice dragon. It could swallow an ice dragon in a town with its open mouth. Bran recounted with excitement: "Then the female White Walker glanced at me, and the crow I possessed died. I was thrown back to the Great Wall, and then I felt something chasing me behind me, and it was already following me. Then I rushed to the Great Wall of Despair and what happened just now happened.”

After saying that, Bran looked at Linde and said seriously: "Lord Linde, I will not leave the Great Wall. After I came here, I understood what my mission is and I need to fulfill my destiny. "

Linde shook his head and said: "I just want to know if you are voluntary. If it is voluntary, then I will not go against your wishes."

Bran immediately responded: "Don't worry, I did it voluntarily and no one coerced me."

After hearing this, Linde turned around and prepared to leave without saying anything else.

"Wait, Master Linde." Bran suddenly stopped Linde again and said, "Sir Linde, if you see my mother, please tell her that I am doing well and don't worry about me. ”

Lind was silent for a moment, but did not immediately agree to Bran's request. Instead, he asked, "Do you know Mrs. Caitlin's current situation?"

"I know." Bran nodded.

Lynde asked again: "Did she marry Roose Bolton voluntarily?"

Bran said nothing.

Linde did not ask any more questions and walked out of the ice cave.

After leaving Ice Scar City, Lind went to Castle Black. When he landed on the training ground, Samwell had already led everyone to the edge of the training ground. Jon Snow had become a ranger as he wished, wearing a After putting on the Ranger's clothes, there was a child standing next to Sam. It seemed that he should be Rickon, but what was puzzling was that Rickon was also wearing the black robe of the Night's Watch.

"Your Majesty Prince." After seeing Linde approaching, Sam led everyone to salute Linde.

Lind waved his hand, then pointed at Rickon and said, "He should be Rickon Stark, right?"

"Yes, my lord." Sam nodded.

"Why do you let him wear a black robe?" Lind turned to look at Jon aside and asked.

Jon's face showed sadness and remorse, and he did not answer. Sam also hesitated to speak, and Rickon lowered his head.

Lind frowned and said, "He is the only male in the Stark family. Although Lord Tywin asked Sansa to become the Duke of Winterfell, Sansa was unwilling to accept it. She preferred that her brother could become the Duke of Winterfell." Duke of Winterfell, one of the purposes of my visit this time is to take the male Stark family to Winterfell to inherit the title."

"I don't want to inherit the title, I want to be a night watchman." Rickon suddenly raised his head, shouted to Lind, then turned around and hurried back to the castle.

"What's going on?" Lind felt something was wrong and turned to Sam and Jon and asked.

"Your Majesty, this matter is not suitable to be discussed here. You should go to my room!" Sam stepped forward and whispered.

Lind nodded and asked him to lead the way, so Sam told the others to do their own thing, and then took Lind back to his room. Jon also followed in, and had someone guard the door after entering. He closed the door carefully.

"Tell me! What's going on?" Linde looked at the two of them and asked.

Sam and Jon looked at each other, and then with Sam's look in his eyes, Jon explained why Rickon would rather be a Night's Watcher than go back and inherit the title of Winterfell.

It turned out that when Bran, Rickon and others escaped from Winterfell, they encountered a pack of wolves in the Wolf Wood. Although they were protected by two direwolves and Hodor and others, Rickon was still injured, and it was an injury. On the man's vital parts.

Even though the injury was later treated by the Reed siblings, he also lost his male function. Therefore, after arriving at the Great Wall, he took the initiative to join the Night's Watch and became Maester Aemon's attendant.

Hearing this, Lind couldn't help but feel a headache. He never thought that the men of the Stark family would become extinct in this way. This made him wonder if the Stark family was cursed.

Lind asked again: "Who else knows about Rickon besides you two?"

Sam replied, "And Hodor, Meera Reed, Jojen Reed, and the wildling Osha."

"Where are they now?" Linde asked.

Jon responded: "Ado and Rickon also joined the Night's Watch and were responsible for raising horses in the stables of Castle Black. Meera Reed and Jojen Reed, two siblings, and the female wildling Osha went to the beyond. ”

"Going to the outside of the Great Wall?" Linde asked as the Three-Eyed Crow appeared in his mind, "What did they say they were doing outside the Great Wall?"

"No." Sam and Jon both shook their heads.

At this moment, Linde couldn't help but wonder whether the Three-Eyed Crow regarded Jojen Reed as Bran's substitute. However, Jojen Reed did not seem to have Bran's outstanding talent. It was still unknown whether he could become a substitute, so Linde felt that the Three-Eyed Crow might have other plans for the Reed siblings.

While Lind was thinking, Jon couldn't help but asked with concern: "My lord, is Sansa okay now?"

"It's not bad. Now that Rickon can't inherit the title of Winterfell, he can only give it to Sansa." Linde sighed slightly and said: "Her abilities are still lacking, and she is still a girl. I want to It may be difficult to suppress the rude warriors in the north, but with Daisy's help, it won't be a big problem."

Sam on the side also took out some organized documents and said: "Your Majesty, you are here to see how the plan is implemented..."

Lind shook his head and said: "No, you don't need to show it to me. These documents have been stored. When the official Commander-in-Chief of the Night Watch arrives, you can show them to him. Everything about resisting wildlings or white ghosts will be discussed later. It’s all handled by him.”

"The Commander-in-Chief of the Night's Watch?" Sam and Jon were both stunned, and asked in unison: "Who is it?"

Lind said: "Lord Stannis Baratheon."

"Lord Stannis?" Sam nodded and said, "Lord Stannis's ability to defend the city is among the best in the Seven Kingdoms. My father also admired him very much before. He became the Commander-in-Chief of the Night's Watch. Guarding the Great Wall is well deserved, and his status is noble and he can suppress the people in the Night Watch. "

"Is Lord Stannis willing to be a night watchman?" Jon was stunned and said, "Didn't he completely lose the war?"

"No, there is no possibility of him turning around!" Sam shook his head and said: "Now the West and the Reach Alliance, which is well-equipped with soldiers and food, can no longer lose. Even if the valley fully supports Stannis, it is impossible to reverse it. The situation, you must know that the Wildling Rebellion has already devastated the Vale, which is only slightly better than the Riverlands. It is impossible to support Stannis in this situation, so Stannis can only rely on the remaining defeated troops and storms at Dragonstone Island. There is absolutely no possibility of a comeback." As he spoke, he looked at Linde again and said, "Your Majesty, you should have been to Dragonstone Island before coming to the Great Wall, right?"

"Yes." Lind nodded and said: "Stannis promised to come to the Great Wall to join the Night's Watch, and not only will he come, but some nobles from Dragonstone Island and Stormlands will also join."

Hearing Lind's words, Sam's face did not show any joy, but instead looked a little worried.

Lind seemed to see through what Sam was thinking and said, "Are you worried that the joining of these people will disrupt the stability of the current high-level leaders such as the commander of the Night Watch and the captain of the Rangers?"

"Yes." Sam also nodded and said: "The newly joined nobles will definitely want to have real power in the Night Watch Legion, and now whether it is the commanders of various castles, or the captains of the rangers, or The auxiliary affairs officers have already been arranged. If they want real power, others will move their seats. In that case, there will definitely be some disputes in the Night Watch Army." As he said that, he looked at Linde and said. Your Majesty, how about you..."

Lind interrupted Sam and said with a very serious look: "I said that the affairs of the Night's Watch will be left to Stannis from now on. If Stannis can't even handle this kind of thing, I will intervene. That way If so, there will definitely be bigger changes in the Night's Watch. You definitely don't want to see such changes, so you must assist Stannis seriously and don't give me the chance to interfere in the affairs of the Night's Watch."

After hearing Lind's words, Sam and Jon both turned a little pale and nodded repeatedly.
