Game of Thrones: Roar of the Dragon

Chapter 104 Crazy Dragon, Bad News

Looking at Womax with blood oozing out of the dragon's mouth, Rhaenys could no longer remain calm.

"Damned kinslayer!
The best thing Viserys I did was to disinherit you!"

Hooray, hooray!
As soon as he finished speaking, Melias flapped his scarlet dragon wings and flew towards Tidehead Island, northeast of King's Landing.

It's no wonder that the Uncrowned Queen is angry. Jacaerys really doesn't give her cheap grandmother any face at all.

Moreover, Rhaenys had previously saved Lucerys from Aemond on Dragonstone, but now she was unable to save Daeron from Jacaerys.

This made her, who had secretly remained neutral because of what she had heard about Jacaerys's atrocities, feel guilty for personally participating in the killing of her Green Targaryen relatives.

Indeed, if Rhaenys was sincerely and fully supporting Jacaerys, with Melias's speed and fighting power, how could she have been held back by the sheep thief?

Although the overall situation in King's Landing has been decided, except for the Dragon Gate which has turned into a sea of ​​fire, the battles at the Iron Gate and the Riverside Gate are not over yet.

Especially in the direction of Linhemen, the fighting seemed to be very fierce.

Click, click!
Womax's powerful dragon claws exerted force suddenly, and the keels of Tesarion's wings were directly broken.

Dragons have a strong ability to recover. As long as a dragon's wings are not broken like Yangyan's, this kind of injury can be healed in enough time.

After making sure that Tesserion could not escape, Jacaerys controlled Womax to fly towards the smoke-filled River Gate.

Even the young dragons like Baoyun have recovered from their confused state, so Yangyan and Huiying have naturally woken up long ago.

Sensing the death of the dragon knight, the gray shadow regained his freedom and flew towards Dragonstone without looking back.

The armored Yangyan faithfully carried out Womax's orders, constantly spewing dragon flames to destroy the Linhemen city gate. The billowing smoke was the noise it made.

But it is also because of Yang Yan.

Except for Colman and others who took advantage of its chaotic state to break into King's Landing, the combined cavalry regiments of Hightower and Dorne were blocked outside the River Gate.

Hooray, hooray!
咴儿~~
When Vermax, with a wingspan of more than 130 meters, flew over with a strong sense of oppression, the combined cavalry regiments of Hightower and Dorn immediately fled in all directions.

Without the protection of the Green Party's dragon, what followed in King's Landing was not a battle at all, but a one-sided harvest of entry points.

The first to surrender from King's Landing were the gold cloaks stationed at the other four city gates.

Jacaris directly arranged for the nearly one thousand golden-robed men to go to the Dragon Gate area to put out the fire. After all, this was already the capital of their Black Gang.

When Womacks continued to fly over the Red Castle, the royal guards inside had already erected white flags on the city walls.

Not long after, the advance team led by Stone and Ryan, soldiers from the Velaryon family, arrived.

The Vale cavalry, the Frey family, and the Blackwood family all arrived at the Red Keep after bypassing the Iron Gate.

Even Korman, who had been hiding somewhere unknown, appeared outside the Red Keep with the remaining Unsullied Army and little Aegon.

After Jacaerys arranged the post-war finishing work in an orderly manner, he brought Stone, Colman, Ryan, Little Aegon and the commanders of the noble armies to the throne room.

Da da da!
Jacaerys held the guard at his waist with his hand and strode up the steps of the Iron Throne that were studded with iron swords.

After being stunned for a moment in front of the metallic Iron Throne, he turned around and sat down, looking down at everyone below the stairs.

"Greetings to His Majesty Jacaerys!"

Seeing this, Stone was the first to shout and kneel down to salute. The others looked at each other and followed his example, kneeling down and shouting in unison.

The innocent little Aegon looked at his brother sitting on the Iron Throne, and a smile gradually spread across his face.

……

The Blood Gate is a small pass located in the middle of the narrow cliffs of the Mingyue Mountains. This pass firmly guards the steep mountain road leading to the valley.

Its bright red gate stands between the dangerous cliffs on both sides. A series of battlements are built on the top of the pass wall and various defensive equipment are installed.

There are two watchtowers clinging to the rock wall high on the dangerous cliff, connected by a weathered gray stone closed arch bridge.

Since the establishment of the Heroic Era, the Blood Gate has never been attacked head-on.

Countless enemies who dared to invade this place were buried here. It is said that the gate of the Blood Gate was dyed red by the blood of the enemies.

At this moment, two soldiers wearing Soaring Blue Eagle armor were standing on each of the two watchtowers of the Blood Gate.

"Hey! There seems to be a...big bat in the sky?"

A soldier on duty accidentally glanced at the distant sky and saw a green figure that looked like a bat appearing at some point in time.

"Bats? Why are they out in the daytime?"

Hearing his companion's words, another soldier on duty narrowed his eyes and carefully observed the green figure that was growing rapidly.

Suddenly, his pupils dilated sharply and he screamed in a trembling voice,
"No, that's not right, that's... a giant, giant dragon!
Hurry up and send out a beacon to inform the Eagle's Nest!"

Ever since he had made it clear that he supported Queen Rainier, Duke Jeyne had issued special orders to the soldiers on duty at the Bloody Gate.

As soon as they saw the green dragon of unknown origin, the soldiers on duty at the Blood Gate lit the beacon fire without hesitation.

Hooray, hooray!
Perhaps because these soldiers on duty had never seen a dragon before and were too nervous, they felt that they had only blinked a few times before the green dragon had flown right in front of them.

But their decision to light the beacon in advance was correct, because this huge dragon was indeed an enemy.

Wow!

Wow!
The bright yellow dragon flame with powerful impact destroyed the two watchtowers of the Blood Gate in an instant.

The blazing fragments of the watchtower and the bodies of the soldiers on duty fell down along with a large amount of rubble from the cliffs that were hit by the dragon flames.

The Bloody Gate Pass, from which all kinds of cries were being heard, was buried alive.

After confirming that the only ground exit of the valley was blocked, Aemond, with a resentful look on his face, controlled Vhagar to fly towards the Eyrie in the center of the valley.

The history of the Blood Gate never being conquered was thus easily broken.

It turns out that any natural barrier is just a joke in front of the dragon!

The Eagle's Nest City, standing on the top of the Mingyue Mountains, naturally discovered the Blood Gate's beacon signal at once.

Upon hearing the news, Duke Jenny, who had been on high alert, immediately sent someone to invite Queen Rainiera to come for a meeting.

Soon, Rhaenyra, accompanied by Ser Eric, arrived at the Hall of the Moon, which was suspended 600 feet (about 183 meters) in the air.

The Hall of the Moon is at the highest point of the Eyrie Castle. The Moon Gate in the center of the hall is very famous in the Seven Kingdoms. Most of the death row prisoners in the Eyrie are executed here.

Because of the letter she received from Daemon from Harrenhal a few days ago, Rhaenyra already knew that the Black Party and the Green Party would have a decisive battle in King's Landing.

So as she entered the hall, she was concerned about her family and asked, "Jenny, is there any news from King's Landing?"

“No, it was the Blood Gate that lit the beacon signal.

This means that either an enemy is about to force its way through the Bloody Gate, or a dragon has been discovered.

But no matter what the situation is, I need to be prepared in advance..."

The probability of the first situation is extremely small, so it can basically be concluded that a dragon has been discovered.

But if it was Jacaerys or Daemon, they would have sent a raven letter first.

So...Rhaenyra was not stupid. She immediately understood what Duke Jenny meant by the last sentence "be prepared".

If it really was the Green Party dragon that came, the other party would offer her up without hesitation.

After all, the geographical location of Eagle's Nest is a natural barrier for ordinary enemies.

But for the dragon, it is a natural grave with nowhere to escape.

After figuring it out, Rhaenyra spoke to Lord Jeyne in a very calm tone, "I will stay here. Please ask Ser Eric to take Joffrey and Viserys away from the Eyrie."

Duke Jenny pondered for a moment after hearing this, then nodded in agreement.

"Her Majesty the Queen!"

Only then did Sir Elric realize something was wrong and reached for the hilt of the sword at his waist, trying to take Rhaenyra away with him.

"Ser Elric, I leave Joffrey and Viserys in your care.

Take them away quickly, this is an order!"

"...obey!"

Feeling Rhaenyra's determination, Sir Elric was silent for a moment, then took the order and left.

Seeing that their lord did not give any orders, the guards of Eagle's Nest in the Bright Moon Hall made no move to stop them.

After Sir Eric left, the Hall of the Moon fell into an eerie silence.

Duke Jenny sighed softly and took the initiative to say, “Oh, I’m sorry, Your Majesty.

I've always believed that in this man's world, we women should stick together.

This is why I supported you without hesitation from the very beginning.

But as the guardian of the valley, I must also consider all the people in my territory.

If your dragon were here, we might be able to try to fight back.

And just as I guessed, the raven letter sent from King's Landing was a trap.

You shouldn’t have replied…”

"It was me who failed to keep my promise and dispatched the dragon to guard the Eagle's Nest.

It was also my stupidity to ask you to reply to King's Landing.

So no need to apologize, Jenny."

While Rhaenyra and Duke Jeyne were chatting in the Hall of the Moon, Ser Elric had already picked up the two princes from the Maiden Tower.

Little Viserys cried and refused to leave with Ser Elric because he didn't see his mother.

It was Joffrey, who had become more sensible after losing his left eye, who spoke to comfort him.

Finally, Ser Eric carried little Viserys on his back and took Joffrey by the hand and left the Maiden Tower as quickly as possible.

It would take nearly ten days to walk from the Bloody Gate to the Eyrie normally, but Vhagar only took more than twenty minutes to fly in a straight line.

Hooray, hooray!
Sir Eric and his two companions had just sat in a huge oak basket pulled by a chain winch and quickly landed from the Eyrie to the Long Sky Castle at the foot of the mountain when they heard the sound of dragon wings whizzing through the air overhead.

Seeing the familiar Vhagar, Sir Elric immediately set out on the narrow path out of the Eyrie as fast as possible.

Hooray, hooray!
Duke Jenny saw the huge creature flapping its wings and hovering in the air through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Mingyue Hall.

Although she had prepared herself mentally, she was still stunned by seeing this ancient dragon up close.

Forcibly controlling her emotions, she walked to the French window and shouted, "Your Majesty Aemond, I am Jeyne Arryn, Duke of the Eyrie and Warden of the East.

Now I offer you Rhaenyra Targaryen, the Kingslayer and Kinslayer.

We, the Arryn family, are willing to lead all the nobles in the valley to pledge allegiance to you!"

Although Duke Jeyne previously supported the Black Party, she now chooses to offer up Rhaenyra and take the valley to pledge allegiance to the Green Party.

Normally, the safety of the Arryn family and the Eyrie can be fully guaranteed.

But Emond's mind is not normal now!
Sitting on the dragon saddle, he ignored Duke Jenny and stared at Rainier who was standing quietly in the Hall of the Moon with resentful eyes.

After several minutes, he suddenly shouted with a distorted face: "Jacaerys and Damon killed my mother, Helena and her child.

Now, I want them to experience this excruciating pain!"

Upon hearing this, Rhaenyra smiled with relief, and she murmured to herself, "Great! They won the war!"

"Dracarys!"

The extremely impactful bright yellow dragon flame destroyed the windows of Mingyue Hall in an instant.

The terrifyingly high temperature carried by the bright yellow dragon flame directly burned the smiling Rhaenyra, the incredulous Duke Jenny, and many panicked Eagle's Nest guards to ashes.

shhhhhh!
Seeing that Vhagar had taken the initiative to attack, the archers on the other towers of the Eyrie immediately fought back.

But this attack had no other effect except angering Aemond and Vhagar.

Hoo ho ho!
Boom boom boom!
Vhagar flapped his wings and flew around the seven white towers of the Eyrie, continuing to breathe out bright yellow dragon flames.

The white towers collapsed under the impact of the dragon flames, and the burning rubble fell below like raindrops.

This castle took several generations of the Arryn family to build, but was burned down by a dragon in a very short time.

Even so, Imond still felt that he could not quell the hatred in his heart.

He controlled Vhagar to land heavily in the ruins of the Halls of the Moon, then stomped on the castle ruins with his dragon claws like a madman, scattering the charred ashes everywhere.

It truly interprets what it means to grind bones and scatter ashes in a literal sense!

Bang bang bang!
The narrow path at the foot of Eagle's Nest City was crowded with nobles, soldiers, and servants who had escaped from Changtian Castle.

Flaming debris of varying sizes fell from the sky, hitting the narrow path like a meteor shower.

It was purely a matter of luck at this point, and every second someone was smashed into a pulp by the flaming debris.

Since Sir Eric had set foot on the narrow path early, he had now taken his two children out of the range of the falling flaming debris.

Rumble!
A huge roar made him, who had been running away with his head down, unable to help but look back.

The ruins of the main castle of Eyrie City completely collapsed and fell under the trampling of Vhagar's huge dragon body, directly smashing the second half of the narrow path and the Changtian Castle at the foot of the mountain into pieces.

Ser Erik tightened little Viserys on his back and continued to stride towards the Bloody Gate with Joffrey.

The Eagle's Nest burned and then fell. Such a big commotion could not fail to attract the attention of other families in the valley.

The Corbray family of Xinsu City, which is across the mountain from Eagle's Nest City, sent out their own reconnaissance cavalry the next day.

After field investigation, these cavalrymen of the Corbray family found and questioned the very few survivors who had survived the fall of the Eagle's Nest.

After receiving information that Queen Rhaenyra and Duke Jeyne were likely killed by an ancient dragon, they immediately returned to the city to report.

On the fourth day after the fall of the Eyrie, Jacaerys in King's Landing received a raven letter from Lord Corbray, informing him of this devastating news!
