Chapter 163: Valyria Castle
That night.
A mournful scream broke the tranquility of this land that had been silent for many years.
"I woke up in a panic from my sleep. A slave who was in charge of the night watch told me that he had just fallen asleep accidentally, while another companion who was also responsible for the night watch and sat beside him was dragged away by a terrible monster. NS."
"I hurried over when I heard the news, and found that there were already a lot of people here."
"I squeezed into the middle with great effort, and then I saw a long bloodstain that was shocking, and went straight along the scorched ground to the dark distance."
"What attacked us? Is it a wolf? Or a jackal? Or a shadow lynx?"
The first two are social creatures, so Jilian's heart is actually more inclined to the latter.
"'We should save our companions!' I told everyone this way, because since it only attacked one of us, it shows that it doesn't have the courage to face everyone."
"If we want to repair the ship smoothly and then return, instead of worrying about it all day, we should first deal with this guy who threatens everyone."
"I moved the rest of the crew and slaves, and they agreed with my idea, and then we organized everyone to chase after..."
In Gillian’s description, the ruins of Valyria are not much different from the generally desolate land, and even some places are no longer a scene of apocalypse, but weeds and trees have begun to grow.
This is different from what these crew members and Jillian have imagined, including Veselis, who is now reading this story through paper.
The ruins of Valyria have begun to gradually come back to life under the powerful self-healing ability of nature.
Perhaps for this reason, all crew members and slaves, including Gillian, have somewhat relaxed their vigilance.
They felt that the most dangerous among the ruins of Valyria was the sea monsters cruising in the black water outside, and this piece of land was no different from the place where they usually lived.
Gillian also expressed repentance in his memoirs, saying that this was one of the worst decisions he had ever made in his life.
Under the encouragement and leadership of Gillian, these crew members and slaves with weapons in their hands followed the blood along the blood from their companions on the ground.
Even the moonlight is very faint at night in this ancient land. I don't know if it is because of the smog covering this lost continent or because today is a cloudy day.
The crew held a few torches barely able to illuminate the land in front of them, and then they didn't know how far they had chased them.
Until some timid ones among them had put forward the idea of retreat.
Then the path they explored finally changed a little bit.
"The land under your feet seems to be vaguely visible that it used to be an ancient road, but it was almost destroyed under the apocalyptic natural disasters, leaving only a little shadow of the past."
"The blood on the ground seems to be advancing along the broken old road, and following the road to the end, we finally have a different discovery."
"That's a castle..."
"We vaguely discerned that the outline shrouded in darkness not far away looked like an ancient castle, but it was clear that it had become dilapidated and only ruined walls were left."
"And the blood stains on the ground come to an abrupt end here, as if they have disappeared out of thin air."
"no doubt."
"This is a castle of Valyrian nobles, and it is also an exciting discovery, because you can know how much bloodshot wealth this castle has in it just thinking about it."
"Valyrian steel sword, Valyrian steel armor, dragon eggs, handed down classics, exquisite artifacts forged by superb magic craftsmanship, etc..."
"People are not surprisingly divided into two factions at this time."
"One of the factions blushed when they saw this Valyrian nobleman's castle, forgetting that their mission was to rescue their companions and kill the monster that attacked them."
"But at this time they finally remembered that they bravely rushed to the Ruins of Valyria to make a fortune, not to escape back empty-handed."
"They even forgot how frightened during the day, and even tied me to a wooden stake to burn me to death."
"It's ironic."
In order for Gillian to organize this fleet into the ruins of Valyria, he once made a promise that the only purpose of his trip was to find the Lannister family’s lost magic weapon, the Light Whistle.
Except for Guang Xiao, whoever gets all the treasures first, if someone dares to **** them, they will be put to death by everyone.
And he, the leader, won't take an extra point, he uses his surname as a guarantee.
And all the slaves who are willing to follow him into the ruins of Valyria will be dismissed from the status of slaves when they come out, and become free again, and the wealth they obtain is also valid.
Therefore, under the temptation of these powerful interests, these crew members and slaves willingly followed Gillian to the Valyria ruins.
only…
They underestimated how terrifying the price it would have to pay to explore the ruins, so they were frightened when they first passed through the sea of smoke.
But now the naked interests are in sight, this Valyrian Castle, which no one has set foot on and is genuine, must contain amazing wealth, so many of them are moved.
Having already taken such a big risk and came to this land for a lifetime of nine deaths, he will inevitably encounter another risk on the way back.
It's better to let it go, if you really find a Valyrian steel sword and take it out... When you think of it, some of them have eyes red.
However, some people still remain calm.
Think about the sea monsters under the black water~www.NovelMTL.com~ They think there must be terrible monsters hidden in this land, maybe the monster that just took away their companions just now.
So such a group of people retreated.
While thinking about wealth and danger, wanting to go in for adventure, while the other side is thinking about returning to the campsite by the sea, there is no essential conflict between the two sides, and they simply parted ways.
The people who wanted to go back formed a small group, because the surrounding fog couldn't distinguish the direction, so they could only walk back along the blood stains on the ground.
The other group of bold people have arranged their armors and weapons, ready to enter this ruined castle to fight for wealth.
Gillian Lannister was among them.
He came to explore the ruins of Valyria to prove his ability and get out of the aura of his brothers.
How can I give up lightly now that the opportunity is right in front of my eyes.
