Game of Thrones: Roar of the Dragon

Chapter 49: Increased Production, the Unsullied

In the northeast of Lanark Island, nearly 1,500 workers were busy working in an orderly manner like an ant colony.

They were divided into several small teams, some were responsible for digging, some were responsible for transporting soil, and some were responsible for providing logistical support.

A Bloodstone Island soldier patrolled the field holding a nine-tailed whip.

Whenever he saw a worker slacking off, he would whip him hard, leaving him with a torn skin and screaming in pain.

On a nearby high ground, there is a camping tent that can block wind and rain.

Under the sky, Jakaris was lying comfortably on a couch with his eyes closed.

At this moment, his head was resting on the knees of a dark-skinned but well-proportioned Myrish girl, who was gently massaging his temples with her hands.

Next to him was a Myrish girl of equally good figure and appearance, who was feeding him peeled grapes.

On each side of the legs there was a Myrish girl pounding her legs with her fists.

These girls were the daughters of wealthy Myrish merchants whom Jacaerys had recently plundered.

He didn't know whether his body was clean or not, and he had no intention of overdrawing his still-developing body now.

At least wait until you are fifteen... no, fourteen!
Da da da!
There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and Jakaris opened his eyes and looked.

He saw Mayor Urd, the mayor of Lanark who had surrendered voluntarily before, walking towards him quickly with a happy face.

"My king, a new hole for oil has been discovered.

This time, the oil hole produced more than the previous holes combined!"

After listening to Urd's breathless narration, Jakaris immediately perked up and said, "Lead the way!"

"Yes!"

As soon as Jakaris moved, Team Stone, who had been silently guarding by his side, followed.

Gulu!
As soon as he approached the new ointment hole, Jakaris smelled a familiar pungent smell.

When he came to the cave with a diameter of about 1.5 meters surrounded by a dozen workers, he saw a large pool of thick green liquid bubbling.

As soon as he saw the hole from which the ointment was automatically oozing out, Jacaerys realized that Urd's previous words were rather modest.

How can this be just a little bit more? It has definitely increased several times!
The oil in the previous holes was getting less and less, so we had to keep digging deeper.

In the increasingly deeper semi-enclosed ointment caves, many workers who were digging and collecting fell directly into the wildfire ointment and fainted.

People kept dying and being replaced, so mining output could not be increased.

The wildfire oil reserves at the bottom of this newly mined oil cave are extremely abundant, and it is estimated that the oil level will not decrease for a while.

This feeling is like discovering an oil well in the previous life that is shallow but rich in resources.

In fact, Jacaris had previously wondered whether wildfire grease was an alternative to petroleum.

But judging from the several new ointment holes that have been opened during this period, it is obvious that the two are not the same thing.

After all, in the film and television materials of the previous life, the oil that came out of the oil fields was a dark brown liquid, just like asphalt boiling at high temperature.

The burning effect is definitely not as terrible as wildfire ointment.

However, in the world of Game of Thrones there are dragons, White Walkers, magic, and even gods.

It is normal for wildfire ointment to have some magical properties.

“Excellent job!

Urd, let the team that mined this ointment cave rest for three days.

Then during the rest period, they will be rewarded with a big meal every day, with plenty of meat and beer!"

Oh hoo!

Thank you, Your Majesty, long live the King!
As soon as Jakaris finished speaking, the surrounding workers cheered and saluted to thank him.

They don't get paid a penny for doing this harmful work, but they are immediately grateful as long as they are rewarded with a few big meals.

If the capitalists from the previous life came to the world of Game of Thrones, they would definitely be ecstatic.

Jakaris did not actually give Urd anything as a reward.
He just gave him a few words of encouragement and then told him to arrange the mining of the new oil cave.

The mayor who surrendered voluntarily was also very smart.

He knew in his heart that the higher his value, the greater his chances of surviving and being reused.

Da da da!
As soon as Jacaris returned to the Skymound, he found that Korman was waiting there for something. It turned out that Rudy, who had set out to Astapor to buy the Unsullied more than a month ago, had returned!
He immediately became excited after hearing Coleman's report. After all, it is one of the top military forces in the Game of Thrones world.

Because the Anointing Cave is some distance from the port of Lanark Town.

As soon as he thought of it, Womacks, who was dozing in an open space nearby, immediately stood up and flew over.

Mounting on the dragon saddle, Womax flapped his wings and flew into the sky, leaving Stone, Coleman and others standing there with helplessness on their faces.

A few minutes later, Jakaris saw Rudy's fleet from the back of the low-flying Womax.

One large warship and five small and medium-sized warships were exactly the number that the Bloodstone Island fleet lacked in the previous Battle of Lanark Island.

Hundreds of Unsullied were landing on the dock from the warships in neat rows.

Even if it was the first time I saw the huge Emerald Dragon.

The Unsullied below did not panic or get into chaos, and continued to land in an orderly manner.

Nodding secretly with great satisfaction, Jacaris maneuvered Womacks to land in an open space in the port.

"Your Majesty, please forgive my incompetence.

The batch of gold and silver treasures you gave me, which were worth 22,000 gold dragons, only bought 700 Unsullied."

As soon as he saw Jakaris, Rudy knelt down and apologized with a look of shame on his face.

Since each city-state on the continent of Essos has its own currency system, exchange is very cumbersome.

Jacaerys calculated according to the corresponding golden dragon.

Logically speaking, that batch of gold, silver and treasures could buy about 730 Unsullied.

According to Rudy, the Lord of Astapor who sold the Unsullied arbitrarily detained thirty Unsullied as a handling fee for currency conversion.

"Rudy, thank you for your hard work!

Remember the slave owner's name and appearance.

When we capture Astapor, you will personally present his head to me!"

"As ordered!"

Rudy heard this and nodded very seriously.

Then he raised a command whip with a golden harpy-shaped handle above his head and presented it to Jacaerys.

Jacaerys reached out to take the whip, turned around and shouted in High Valyrian to the 700 Unsullied who had already landed: "Unsullied, attack the dragon!"

Clang, clang!
The order was given.

These Unsullied, wearing leather armor, spiked helmets, spears and shields in their hands, and long swords on their waists,

Without hesitation, he held his spear with his shield, and then marched in neat steps towards Womax in the open space in the harbor.

Ang~~
As if feeling offended, Womax let out an angry dragon roar.

Then the dragon opened its mouth and flames appeared in its mouth.

"Stop!"

Upon seeing this, Jacaerys immediately communicated with Womax in his mind and gave orders to the Unsullied.

He didn't want these 22,000 gold dragons to be burned to ashes by Womax.

But to be honest, this group of Unsullied are really reckless, and he really likes them!
After playing with the whip for a while, Jakaris threw it back to Rudy.

His personal guards had all learned simple High Valyrian, and were more than capable of commanding these Unsullied.

In important battles, Jakaris would definitely control the Vermax himself.

This Unsullied army that can be used as a trump card must naturally be led by Rudy, the man he trusts and has the highest military strength.

Today is a day to be happy, both for the greatly increased production of Wildfire Ointment and the newly added Unsullied Legion.

Both can increase the strength of the forces under Jakaris.

But today is also a very busy day.

That afternoon, the letter sent by Beoro was also delivered to him.
