Chapter 359 The Heartbroken Regicide

"After all, you are also the future owner of Casterly Rock City and the heir to the Guardian of the West. You actually sneaked into the nun's residence. What do you want to do?" Lind looked at James who was being escorted by the nun of redemption. He couldn't help but smile, and then said to The Redemption Sister said: "Sister Linda, go back! Just leave him to me."

When Podrick returned, Lind guessed that Jaime would definitely come to see him again, but what he didn't expect was that Jaime actually chose to sneak into the mansion secretly and wanted Cersei to take him away.

It’s just that he didn’t know that he was already being targeted by the Silent Monk from the moment he entered the official residence. When he sneaked into the yard where the Redemption Sisters were, he was beaten to the ground by a Redemption Sister and dragged to the forest. In front of virtue.

Now, the Redemption Sisters under Linde have developed into the fourth generation according to different trial methods. Their combat effectiveness is more than twice as strong as before, and they are gradually becoming dehumanized. Seven Redemption Sisters and Silent Monks form a complete team. A formation of fourteen people is enough to fight an army of thousands of people.

Not to mention that James's strength has plummeted now that he has broken his right hand. Even if he is intact and returns to his peak period, he will definitely not be the opponent of any Redemption Sister who has completed all the trials.

"Why do I need to tell you what I want to do? Lynde Terra, I thought we were friends, but I didn't expect..." James stood up from the ground with a look of embarrassment on his face, while picking up what the Redemption Sister had dropped. He said while pressing the prosthetic hand on the ground again.

Linde said calmly: "James, why do you regard me as a friend? If you are a friend, you will never make it difficult for me."

"Am I making it difficult for you?" James looked at Linde with an unhappy expression.

"Think about it, why I took Cersei away, and think carefully about the causes and consequences." Linde said patiently: "I am just fulfilling the duty of a witness to ensure that the oath and promise I made can be carried out, and what really led to all this It's not me, Lord Garland and Duke Tywin, but why would Lord Garland target Queen Cersei? That's because Queen Cersei humiliated the Tyrell family, and she humiliated Tywin severely. Because the Duke was humiliated by his family, he sent a Castamere rain to the nobles who humiliated him. However, the Tyrell family did not add insult to injury. They besieged the Lannister family together with other families and simply asked Lord Tywin to punish them. He is the culprit of humiliating the Tyrell family, and is also willing to help the Lannister family and remarry. Shouldn't you be grateful for the Tyrell family's magnanimity?"

"I..." Although James wanted to refute Linde's words, he couldn't find a reason to refute. He didn't know what to say for a while, and his mind was a little confused. There was no doubt that Cersei's current situation was caused by her own suicide. So I can't blame anyone else.

"Instead of worrying about your sister Cersei, you should worry more about your younger brother Tyrion!" Lind said suggestively: "At least your sister doesn't have to worry about life and death with me, but Tyrion. It’s dangerous now.”

James immediately said displeased: "What are you talking about? My father just locked up Tyrion. After the wedding, when I return to Casterly Rock City, he will go back to Casterly Rock City with me."

Lynde smiled and shook his head, and said: "You think treason can be brushed off so easily. According to what I know, Tyrion not only offended the dignitaries of King's Landing to death during the war, but even Qiao Qiao. His Majesty Joffrey has been slapped and taught a lesson by Tyrion more than once in front of others. Do you think His Majesty Joffrey is a broad-minded person? "

James's face instantly turned a little pale. He knows his son better than his father. He knows very well what kind of virtue his son is. Not to mention Tyrion, if he offends him, he will take revenge even if it is his mother Cersei, just like This time in the meeting hall of the Prime Minister's Tower, he stabbed him in the back at just the right moment.

At this time, he once again thought of the crime Joffrey had added to Tyrion's head. At this moment, he could already feel that Joffrey was probably as Lind said, and would not let Tyrion go. Find an opportunity to kill Tyrion.

"Father will not let Joffrey do this." Jaime said through gritted teeth.

Lind asked: "Do you think Lord Tywin can still control the overall situation now?"

James immediately thought of what happened in the Prime Minister's Tower, and couldn't help but look at Lind.

Lind shook his head and said: "I will not interfere in the affairs of the kingdom, so you don't have to look at me. Think about it, even without me, Lord Tywin's power in King's Landing is not the strongest."

James said anxiously: "You mean the Tyrell family will deal with Tyrion?"

Lind shook his head and said: "No, from what I understand, the Tyrell family has no hatred towards Tyrion, and they will not cause any harm to Tyrion, but their current relationship with His Majesty Joffrey Very well, if His Majesty Joffrey insists on trying Tyrion for treason, they should not object. And don’t forget, there is also a Red Viper who hates your Lannister family. The infighting in the Nest family is definitely a good show for him, what do you think he will do.”

Hearing this, James' face had lost all color. At this moment, he felt that Cersei's matter could be put aside for the time being. It was more urgent to rescue his brother first.

So, he immediately wanted to leave, but was stopped by Linde again.

"It was wrong of me to break into your mansion without authorization. I apologize to you. I will not come to you again regarding Cersei's matter..." James frowned, bowed his head to Lind and admitted his mistake.

Lind interrupted James and said, "You misunderstood. I stopped you not because I wanted you to apologize, but because I wanted to tell you something else."

"What?" James asked.

Lind pointed to James' broken hand and said, "Do you want to have a hand again?"

James was stunned when he heard this. Then he ignored etiquette and reached out to grab Lind's arm. He excitedly confirmed: "Are you kidding? If you are, this joke is not funny at all."

It’s no wonder that Jaime was so gaffe-like, because his right hand represented his honor, self-esteem and everything. When he lost his right hand, he also lost everything. That’s why he asked him to take off his white robe when Lord Tywin At that time, I was not so persistent.

He agreed to give up the identity of the Kingsguard not for the title and territory of Casterly Rock, but because he knew that he was no longer qualified to be the Kingsguard after losing his right hand. Now he could no longer protect the king, even if he was an ordinary soldier. If he can't deal with it, continuing to wear the white robe will only make him feel humiliated.

"You should have heard of the Black Cave, right?" Linde said calmly.

James nodded and said: "Of course I have heard of it. Your Black Cave is a famous and mysterious place. Any information related to the Black Cave can sell dozens or even hundreds of golden dragons."

Lin De said in a deep voice: "Heikong has been studying the method of rebirth of severed limbs. Recently, some results have been achieved and some in vivo experiments have been conducted. It's just that the willpower of those who accept the rebirth of severed limbs is too weak, and no one can sustain it. Active transplantation of severed limbs ultimately failed. Are you interested..."

"Yes, I'm interested." Before Lind could finish speaking, James responded hurriedly, fearing that Lind would regret it if he answered too slowly.

"Don't worry, just listen to what I have to say." Linde signaled James to calm down and said, "I can arrange a living body transplant for you, but you need to provide the living body yourself."

"What is a living body?" James asked puzzledly.

"It's your severed hand." Linde said solemnly: "I think you should have kept your severed hand, right?"

"Yes, I saved it." James nodded with a look of joy on his face.

During the Battle of Riverrun, after his hand was chopped off, there was still a bit of flesh attached. Roose Bolton chopped off his hand completely and then made it into a specimen according to the Bolton family's techniques. When Harrenhal let him go, he gave it to him as a gift. He originally wanted to throw away the hand, but in the end he didn't want to part with it and kept it. Unexpectedly, it would be useful now.

After responding, he couldn't help but asked curiously: "If I hadn't lost my hand, wouldn't it be possible to perform living donor transplantation?"

"No, but such a transplant is full of uncertainties. In the end, what will grow on your body after the transplant will still be a hand. It is unknown whether your hand will cause some kind of mutated effect on yourself." Linde said. While explaining, the robbers in the black cave whose experiments failed came to mind. Now those people can be said to be worse off than dead.

Although James could not fully understand Lind's words, he could still feel that it would be extremely dangerous if he did not use his own hands as the living body.

Lind then asked James to find time to hand over the severed hand to him, and he took it back to Summer Hall and cultivated it into a living body, so that James could transplant it at any time.

After hearing this, James didn't stay any longer and hurriedly left Linde's mansion.

After James left, two more uninvited guests came to Lind's mansion not long after.

"Your Majesty, please help us." Beric Dondarrion lowered his head and prayed after seeing Lind.

Lind looked at Berry, then at the red-robed monk Thoros beside him, and said: "I admire what your Brotherhood Without Banners has done. If you want me to help you remove Duke Tywin's wanted bounty, , I think I should be able to do it.”

Berry quickly shook his head and said: "No, sir, you misunderstood! We don't want you to lift the bounty on us, but we want you to support us with some supplies, such as food, medicine and weapons. ”

Lind frowned and said: "Not long ago, except for the Valley, the guardian dukes of the other seven kingdoms and their representatives have signed a peace agreement. The war is over, and you are still preparing to wander around the Riverlands and attack the nobles. ?"

Upon hearing Linde's words, both Berry and Soros were stunned and looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Their Brotherhood Without Banners has always been like a ranger, attacking nobles who harmed the common people, plundering the property of those unscrupulous nobles, and then distributing it to the common people so that the common people can survive in the war. They think that this is The days would last for a long time, but they didn't expect that the war would come to an abrupt end without any warning, which caught them off guard. They lost their life goals for a while and were very confused.

"How many times have you been resurrected?" Lind asked as he looked at Berry and felt the strong fluctuations of magic power on his body.

Berry was stunned for a moment and did not answer immediately. Instead, he recalled the number of times he had been resurrected very seriously.

"Seven times." Soros remembered it clearly.

"How much memory have you lost?" Linde asked again.

Barry didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Linde said: "Do you remember your wife and children? I have taken them back to Black Harbor. They miss you very much. You should go back and see them."

"Wife and children?" Berry had a look of confusion on his face. Although he knew that he had a wife and children and a happy life, he could not remember what his wife and children looked like at all, or even what they looked like. Their experiences of living together were gone.

"How many happy memories do you still have in your mind?" Linde continued to ask.

Barry was still confused.

"Humanity, your resurrection consumes your own humanity. When all the content related to happiness in your memory disappears, then your humanity will also disappear, and you will be no different from the walking dead." Lind looked at Berry. , said: "No, there is still a difference. You will become a container, a container that can be used by the King of Light."

Although Berry's situation is completely different from that of Willas and Patchface, there is one thing the three have in common. They are all vessels of ancient existence.

However, the process of the three becoming containers is different. Veras has the blood of Green-Hand Gals and is a perfect container. Through Veras, Green-Hands Gals can restore some god-like power.

Patchface was an accident, which ultimately led to the failure of the container transformation. Patchface was resurrected and became insane, but he possessed a part of the power left in his body by ancient beings. This power gave him the ability to predict.

As for Berry, it was completely through a death sacrifice that he was transformed into a vessel by the power of the Lord of Light.

It is no exaggeration to say that compared to Stannis, Beric Dondarrion at this moment is more like the reborn Azor Ahai in the legend, because Azor Ahai is probably also the Light The king's vessel.

"The vessel of the Lord of Light?" Thoros looked at Berry in shock, with a look of surprise on his face.

All this time, Berry was resurrected again and again in his prayers. He always believed that there must be some kind of revelation, hinting at the Lord of Light's revelation to him, but he never understood what the content of the revelation was, and now Linde's words , his confusion was instantly solved.

And Berry also fell into deep thought. After a long time, he asked Lind: "What is the purpose of the Lord of Light transforming me into a container?"

"I want to try to prepare for the decisive battle with the Cold God Beyond the Wall." Lind guessed, then looked at Berry and Thoros, and said: "The war is over, and there is no need for you to move around in the Riverlands anymore. , you should go to the Great Wall of Despair! You should be needed there more."
