Chapter 527: Death of Stannis
Tonight's bright moon hung high, and the cold moonlight gleamed on the windowsill. The night was quiet, only the remaining water droplets on the eaves made noises from time to time.
The defeated generals who had defeated the frontline returned, causing a brief commotion in the Wind's Breath, and then everything returned to calm.
After all, if it is too late today, people are all going to sleep again, but the master of Wind's Breath, Stannis's bedroom is still lit up.
Of course Stannis couldn't sleep, and the defeat of Bronze Gate City became his nightmare.
He once thought that alien ghosts were his nightmare, and it was almost impossible for humans to defeat alien ghosts, and then the anger of the Battle of Rushing City left a great psychological shadow on him.
Then Stannis got an arrow in his knee and escaped smoothly after several months of jail.
He thought he had come out of the original nightmare, but he didn't expect to fall into a new nightmare again.
In this battle, he killed more than 30,000 men from the stormy land, fathers, sons, and elder brothers from more than 30,000 families... and this number would be even more exaggerated if you include the old, weak, sick and disabled who are in charge of logistics.
He made sufficient preparations for this battle, but he did not expect that the result of this battle would ruin the future and hope of the entire storm.
The Baratheon family has ruled this land for almost three hundred years... and how many people hate themselves now?
The candle in the master's bedroom of Wind's Breath swayed gently, and Stannis sat quietly at the desk, before he even untied his armor, his complexion was still the same as before, calm and determined, just like a stone in a pit. Smelly and hard.
It's just that the breathing is a bit heavy.
Stannis is thinking about a series of recent events, including the death of Lan Li, the defeat of Bronze Gate City, etc...
However, at this moment, the door of his bedroom was knocked.
Bang bang...
"Davos?"
"Go in."
Stannis sat at the table and woke up slightly. He subconsciously thought it was the Onion Knight, because the other party was his most trusted staff member and had just escaped from the battlefield.
But Stannis just blurted out this sentence, and the next second he frowned.
He realized that the person here could not be Davos.
Because Davos has been by his side for so long, that Stannis has already understood his habits, including talking, doing things, etc. When Davos knocks on the door, he will inevitably say "sir" instead of Will push the door directly or silently.
"William?"
I don't know if it was because of his excellent sixth sense or his suspicious character, Stannis suddenly raised a warning sign in his heart at this moment.
He subconsciously held the hilt around his waist. He hadn't taken off the armor full of wind and dust on his body, and naturally the saber had not been taken off, and then he called his guard.
Stannis used to be the Duke of Dragonstone Island, but now he is the master of Wind's Breath. He is of noble birth and high status. A loyal guard is always standing in front of his bedroom door.
And this young man named William is one of Stannis' guards, and his family has served the Baratheon family for three generations.
His father used to accompany Stannis’ father, Duke Stephen, to Valantis. Later, when he returned to Broken Boat Bay, he encountered a storm and the ship sank and was killed. Therefore, William was truly a “root is red”, Shi Tannis also trusted him very much.
However, now Stannis had a sudden alarm in his heart, holding the hilt of the sword and calling the name of the guard, but he didn't get any response, he was completely aware that the big thing was not good.
Bang--
At this moment, the door of Stannis' bedroom was knocked open by a young man with a large chest, a sturdy figure and strong arm muscles.
He was wearing the armor of a soldier of the Baratheon family, holding a long sword, and there was still a trace of blood on the blade.
The family was loyal to the Baratheon family for three generations, and William, the guardian who was loyal to Stannis, fell in a pool of blood at this moment. It seemed that he died in the hands of someone who was good at fighting, and suddenly he made his move. He fell down without responding.
He originally wanted to trick Stannis to open the door by himself, so that his movements would be smaller and he would be able to retreat if he was killed. Blade Stannis avenged his brother.
"Come on!"
"There are assassins!"
Stannis in the room yelled decisively when he saw this scene, calling the guards in the castle to rescue him. At the same time, he also drew the long sword around his waist, his cheeks tightened, and his eyes stared at each other stubbornly.
"Who are you?"
He looked at the visitor somewhat familiar, but when he remembered, the opponent looked a bit similar to that of Lan Li’s staff, Donald Sven of Stonehelm, except that the opponent’s body was stronger. Far beyond Donnel...
"Are you Baron Sven?"
Stannis suddenly remembered that Gurion Shiwen, Earl of Stonehelm, had another son.
However, the other party did not answer, but rushed up with a roar, and slashed with a sword in his hand.
Stannis saw this scene and hurriedly raised his sword to resist.
clang--
Immediately, the two long swords collided heavily, and the harsh metal collision sound even burst into sparks.
"Damn it!"
Stannis only felt that his mouth was hot, and his ears were humming. Baron Sven's power was too great, Stannis was not his opponent at all.
In Wind's Breath, there was also movement outside the bedroom where Stannis lived.
"what happened?"
"what happened?"
It seemed that Stannis's cry for help had worked, and some guards had heard the voice and rushed over.
Then I saw the corpse lying outside the door of Stannis' bedroom, and Dang even realized that the big thing was not good.
"Oops!"
"Master Stannis was assassinated!"
"Hurry up! Come on!"
There was a lot of noise outside Stannis' bedroom door.
And in his bedroom, in the narrow space, Stannis was still fighting with Baron Sven.
He was not the opponent of this strong young man at all, and the opponent's martial arts were even more exquisite. The long sword in Stannis's hand was even blown away, and the tiger's mouth burst slightly with blood leaking out.
Click——
Baron Sven smashed the desk in the bedroom with a long sword in his hand, and directly split the heavy desk in half, and Stannis's embarrassed one rolled and avoided Baron Sven's. One sword.
Bang--
Immediately, his head hit the bookcase aside, and he was a little dizzy.
But Stannis panted heavily, daring not to neglect at all, and pulled out the dagger from his waist.
This dagger was the one that killed his own brother Lan Li.
Because he knew that this was the most dangerous moment in his life. Once the enemy on the battlefield would try to catch him alive, but the assassin didn’t listen to any explanation from him, just wanted to take his life right away~www.NovelMTL.com ~Master Stannis! "
Bang--
At this time, the guards of Wind's Breath finally arrived, and they rushed into Stannis' bedroom in a swarm.
However, they only saw the final scene.
Baron Sven grabbed Stannis' shoulders with a long sword in his hand, a sword pierced his chest, and then drew out the sword, blood spurting out.
"Ho—"
"cough..."
For the first time, Stannis's resolute, indifferent, never-smiling cheek showed violent mood swings.
He gasped and looked at Baron Sven as if he wanted to say something but couldn't say it. The blood clogged his trachea and came out of his mouth.
Then the dagger that killed Lan Li fell to the ground with a clang, and the body fell over.
