Game of Thrones: Attack on the North Wolf

Chapter 174 Exceptions
"My God! What is that? Ice magic?"

"Oh! How could we defeat such an enemy!"

"It's over, the Western Territory is over!"

Seeing Teresa focus on rescuing the wounded in Branded City again, Robb thought about it, and the blood wind carried him back to the inner castle of Branded City.

The guarding soldiers and civilians of the branded city around them, from the initial silence that was so shocked that they forgot to speak, suddenly turned into a noisy vegetable market, with various discussions one after another.

Ever since he gained extraordinary power, Robb never thought of hiding it.Westeros seems to be a society that pays attention to civilization and order, but under this layer of skin is a cruel law of the jungle.

Therefore, he likes to show off his muscles properly on some occasions.This can not only make one's own soldiers feel admiration and awe, but also make the enemy feel fear and cowardice.

Why did the [-] brave surrendered soldiers who attacked the city want to gain military exploits and join the northern border?
In addition to the influence of the new law in the north, there is also the fact that Robb walked out of the wildfire trap outside Riverrun like a god descending from the earth, and broke through the city alone in Sarsfield.

Isn't there a classic meme in the previous life?If you can't beat it, just join!

These well-aware soldiers from the Western Territory and the Stormlands carried out this sentence very thoroughly.

The area of ​​the branded city is not too big, and it didn't take long for Robb and the wolf guards to arrive at the inner castle of the branded city.

Clay, who Robb hadn't seen at the gate of the Branded City just now, was accepting the remnants of the defenders who came out of the inner fort with their hands raised and surrendered.

Beside him was Damon Marbrand, Earl of Branded City, with his hands bound behind his back.He was the father of Adam Marbrand, Lord Commander of the Westland Cavalry.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for not being able to greet me at the city gate in advance!"

Seeing Robb coming, Clay immediately stepped forward, knelt down on one knee and saluted him in apology.

"Get up! Where did your crime come from? Commanding the siege this time is very well done, I am very satisfied!"

Robb jumped down from Blood Wind, and after stabilizing his figure, he pulled Clay up and patted him on the shoulder encouragingly, and said.

"Your Majesty, Earl Damon took the initiative to persuade the defenders in the inner castle to surrender. He also told me that there is a large amount of rough gold in the branded city, and there is also a lot of rock gold that has not been refined.

Willing to use these things in exchange for the noble captive treatment of the Marbrand family. "

Hearing the praise from the person he admired, even Clay, who has been cautious and steady since he was a child, couldn't help showing a smile on his face, and then continued to ask for credit.

"Ok?"

In his previous life, he knew what gold looked like, but Robb, who had never understood the specific content, did not understand the meaning of Clay's words at all.

"Your Majesty, crude gold is a gold bar or nugget with low purity after basic refining. Rock gold is an ore with gold dug out from the gold mine..."

Seeing that Robb didn't seem to know much about gold, Earl Damon immediately explained.

Through his series of detailed descriptions, Robb knew the specific situation of the depletion of the gold mines in the west.

In the past, Casterly Rock City was the most important place for gold mines. Its extremely rich reserves persisted in mining for thousands of years, and then gradually dried up. The cost of mining was far greater than the value of the small amount of gold produced.

Subsequently, the role of Casterly Rock City gradually changed to the capital.And many origins of gold deposits such as Golden Tooth City, Castame, Nunburg and Pendry Hills have been discovered.

The Lannister family also relied on them to arm themselves and enhance their strength.Become the leading family in Westeros.

However, due to the backward mining technology in Westeros, the rock gold that is easy to collect in the numerous gold mines in the west is greatly reduced, and the gold content is also reduced.

Now the mining costs of many gold mines in the western region are gradually showing the old situation of Casterly Rock City. On the day when they are completely worthless, these gold mines may be abandoned and look for new gold mine resources instead.

Therefore, the Western Gold Mine is still producing gold, but the difficulty and cost of mining have increased.It does not mean that the gold mines have been directly exhausted to the point where there is no gold to be mined at all.

It stands to reason that this branding city has a lot of rough gold and rock gold.The Golden Tooth City that Robb took before should have more gold.After all, Golden Tooth City is an important gold-producing town in the Western Territory.

Yes, the Golden Tooth City does produce a lot of gold all the time.But it also has the dual functions of a defensive fortress and a gold-producing area.

Generally, when a war breaks out, Golden Tooth City will ship out all the gold produced.At the same time, gold mining activities in the area will be stopped, and all efforts will be made to deal with the war.

The Branded City and the Cliff City are located inside the Western Territory, and their geographical location is safe.At the same time, it is responsible for the monitoring and protection of gold production areas and the function of primary refining and transshipment.

During this period of time, when Robb captured the Golden Tooth City at lightning speed, the spies of the Northern Intelligence Organization had already cut off all external communications.

So, when they started to occupy the entire Western Territory.These castles in the Tengshi Mountains had no time to transport the gold, so they could only make Robb cheaper.

"Thank you for answering my doubts! Earl Damon, please wait for a while. After I take the Cliff City in a few days, I will arrange for you to go to King's Landing City."

According to the rumors of Blood Wind, when Earl Damon talked about these situations, his heartbeat was normal and his whole body showed no abnormal reactions.Robb, who felt that the information was more authentic, nodded and said.

"Thank you Your Majesty!"

Hearing that my family is safe and free.Earl Damon breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Robb.

"Come here, find a comfortable place for Earl Damon and his family."

Clay, who had been listening silently, immediately called for the soldiers beside him to escort Earl Damon and others away.

"Clay, you have brought all the people in Brand City who know how to mine. I want to see if I can strengthen their mining techniques.

Then, send troops to control the nearby gold-producing areas as quickly as possible. These are all our wealth. "

After Earl Damon was taken away, Robb immediately issued his order to Clay.

"Yes, I will arrange it now!"

"Wait, um, I met a nurse named Teresa just now. She is helping the wounded at the gate of the city. You send someone to protect her secretly, and then collect as much information about her as possible."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Clay, who was stopped again by Robb, after hearing his last order, a smile that all men could understand appeared on his face, and he turned and left with ease.

Looking at Clay who was inexplicably happy, Robb's face was a little hot.It seems that there is a feeling of being caught by the other party when peeking at beautiful women when they were in school in the previous life.

In fact, there are some things that Robb doesn't know in private.

After he became the king of the northern border, he thought he lived a very self-disciplined life, but in the eyes of the nobles under his command, it was an unacceptable life of an ascetic monk.

Some people even speculate whether his hobby is male.After all, such alternative hobbies are also very popular among the great nobles in Westeros.In Dorne, which is the most open, it can even be made public directly.

Generally speaking, the relationship between the sexes of the aristocrats in Westeros is very open. Teenage aristocrats like Clay, they go to the red-light district to party, just like classmates in previous lives go to Internet cafes to have sex, which is normal and frequent.

Many sons and daughters of great aristocrats can find bed partners unscrupulously before marriage and enjoy their youth.Because political marriages among nobles are very frequent, and most of the marriages are not happy.

But for the sake of the dignity of their respective families, after marriage, both parties will behave very restrainedly.At least, it will not tarnish the family's reputation in naming.

Of course, there are still many conservative families like Ed Stark who strictly restrain their children.

In short, after Clay understood Robb's expression, he felt a lot more relaxed.This can show that they don't have to worry about Robb's offspring.

The northern soldiers quickly cleared the inner fort of Branded City, and Robb lived in the lord's room as a matter of course.

His original plan was to combine the knowledge of his previous life to think about how to improve the mining technology of the gold mines in the western border, or find ways to reduce mining costs and other issues.

As a result, Robb sat at the desk in the lord's room without thinking about future development plans at all.Instead, his mind was full of the figure of Teresa who seemed to him to be extremely beautiful.

Is this love at first sight?

When I watched dramas in my previous life, I didn't think she was so beautiful!Why do I feel more beautiful than any woman when I see her now!

There seems to be something... not right!

Just as Robb was thinking wildly, a thought flashed in his mind, and his vigilance suddenly rose rapidly.

Robb turned his head to look at the corner of the room, and used the [Control] skill to shrink the blood wind.The blood contract data immediately appeared in front of his eyes, but there was nothing abnormal on it, and the blood contract points did not decrease.

So, I wasn't attacked by magic?
"Vill!"

"Your Majesty, please order!"

Following Robb's call to the outside of the room, the leader of the wolf guards, Will, immediately pushed the door open, knelt down and saluted.

"Go and invite Ye Zi over here!"

"Yes!"

It was rare to see such a serious expression on Robb's face. Weir knew the seriousness of the matter, and immediately led the order to go out to find the leaves.

After Will left, Robb stood in the center of the lord's room, carefully examining his body with crystal clear ice crystal eyes.But nothing unusual was found.

It didn't take long for Will to come with Leaf, along with Thorn and Vines, who were worried about her.

"You guys wait outside! I have something to ask Ye Zi."

Robb, who was standing in the center of the room, ordered casually. After Will put the leaves in the room, he closed the door directly.

Bang!
"Yezi, I suspected that I might be affected by magic, but I didn't find anything abnormal."

As soon as the door was closed, Robb asked Ye Zi, whose face was a little pale because he overdrawn his magic power to cast a large spell in Golden Tooth City.

Ye Zi heard this, and slowly looked around Robb carefully.Then, while pointing at the blood wind in the corner, he shook his head and replied, "Your Majesty, apart from its magic power, I have not sensed any other traces of magic power on your body."

"Is it possible that it's not magic, but other mysterious powers that can affect me?"

At this moment, Robb, who woke up from that state of longing, was very sure that he was influenced by a mysterious force, and that's why he was so obsessed with Teresa, whom he had only met once.

If he asks other people such general questions, Monk Zhang Er will definitely be confused.

But Ye Zi, born in the era of the dragon, is the only child of the forest who has traveled through the human world and observed, listened and learned for 200 years.

She pondered for a while, and suddenly seemed to remember something.Then he rummaged through the small bag around his waist, found a handful of powder that he didn't know what it was made of, and sprinkled it on Robb.

With her actions like this, the lazy Blood Wind in the corner stood up directly.It was comforted by Robb, who didn't feel any danger, before it lazily collapsed on the ground again.

As the leaves sang in the original language, the powder on Robb's body emitted bursts of green light.

Under the illumination of these green lights, strange symbols like living creatures are dancing happily around Robb's body.

"Your Majesty, this is the continent of Essos, the Moonsinger's 'Love Song'"

Leaf, who had been to Essos before, looked at these strange symbols and said with certainty.

"Song of love? You know I can counteract magic. If it's affecting me, why can't I dissolve it?"

Seeing that he was unknowingly affected by the mysterious force, Robb asked with a frown in displeasure.

"Your Majesty, this is not magic. In a sense, it is just a blessing!"

"bless?"

"Yes!"

Looking at Robb who obviously wanted to get to the bottom of it, Ye Zi sighed inwardly, and then continued to explain to him,
"Moon singers are basically women, just like our children of the forest sing about the earth, they sing about the moon in the sky.

For those moonsingers who are truly recognized by the moon, their singing voices with beautiful blessings have mysterious power.

For example, 'Song of Healing', 'Song of Childbirth', 'Song of Love' and more! "

"They're all women... Hey, they're all amazing! They can bless me across the wide ocean!"

Robb habitually rubbed his chin lightly with his hands, chuckled lightly, and then joked to Ye Zi.

"Impossible, they must be nearby to bless you!"

"Vill!"

After finding out the information he wanted, Robb immediately shouted to Weir at the door.

Squeak!

"Your Majesty, I am here!"

"Immediately lead people to invite all the quiet sisters and nurses who are at the gate of the branded city today to the inner castle. Be careful not to hurt them.

Of course, if someone strongly resists, or if something unusual happens, I allow you to use lethal means! "

Seeing Will quickly open the door and come in, Robb directly conveyed his order to him.

After Weier nodded, he quickly went to complete his task.Only then did Ye Zi behind Robb react, and said quietly: "Your Majesty, if you want to know anything, you can ask me directly."

"Just now, from your tone, I can feel that you have a good impression of Moonsinger. If you ask me directly, you won't tell me, right!"

"They're just a bunch of harmless women who are either healers, midwives, or fortune tellers.

And the 'Song of Love' is a blessing, there is no threat to you at all, please don't hurt them! "

Seeing Robb's half-smile expression, Ye Zi replied very sincerely.

"Whether there is a threat or not, it doesn't matter if you say it. It doesn't matter if I say it!
bless?

They came to Westeros from Essos just to bless my love?Hey, I don't believe it. "

Before Robb waited too long, Will came to return, and everyone had been invited to the gate of the inner castle.

When Robb brought Will and other wolf guards to the gate of the inner castle, there were seventy or eighty Silent Sisters and more than a dozen nurses talking in a low voice with some panic.

When they saw Robb, all fell silent.They knew that no matter what His Majesty the King wanted to do, they could only cooperate and there was no room for resistance.

"Blood Wind, give me a good look at their reactions!"

Robb glanced at Teresa, who was standing quietly in the crowd.He quietly gave Xuefeng an order, then turned his head and said to the nearly a hundred people,

"Since you dare to secretly use the 'Song of Love' against me, you must bear my wrath. If you can't give me a satisfactory answer, I will definitely turn the Moonsinger Temple into ruins!"

Hearing Robb's inexplicable roaring speech, nearly a hundred women in front of the inner castle were basically at a loss.

However, one of the women dressed as Silent Sisters, her sudden heartbeat and shortness of breath immediately attracted Blood Wind's attention.

Robb followed Blood Wind's gaze, and instantly met the eyes of the woman dressed as the Silent Sister.

The woman dressed as the Silent Sisters knew immediately that she had been exposed.While taking something out of her bosom, she turned around and wanted to run towards the alley of Brand City next to her.

Whoosh!
A fifty centimeter long, small ice crystal spear shot from behind, directly piercing through her left leg, causing her to fall to the ground.

Several wolf guards quickly surrounded her and grabbed her directly in front of Robb.
