Chapter 167: King's Landing
Chapter 167: King's Landing
The sky was getting darker and darker like spilled ink. On the deck of the royal fleet, several soldiers sat together, holding wine jugs in their hands, with a somewhat absent-minded and comfortable look on their faces.
One of them took a sip of wine, a trace of desire in his eyes, and said with emotion: "It's rare that those adults are not here. We should really go to King's Landing to have some fun."
The other person heard this and raised a wicked smile, teasing: "You want to find a woman?"
The man blushed and was about to retort when another person interrupted, "We can't find it even if we want to. The gold cloaks are guarding all the gates of King's Landing tightly. We can't get in at all."
At this time, an old soldier spoke. His voice was steady and slightly mysterious: "In fact, you don't have to go through the main gate to enter King's Landing. Think about how Knight Davos got out." When the others heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, and they immediately urged the old soldier to lead them there.
The old soldier remained silent, with a hint of cunning in his eyes.
It was not until the soldier who made the initial proposal gritted his teeth and said, "We will pay for all your expenses tonight," that the old soldier revealed a smug smile.
Just as they were discussing enthusiastically how to go to King's Landing for fun, Gavin came to the sky above King's Landing again.
He rode on Blazing Shadow, like a god descending to the earth. Blazing Shadow spread its huge wings and circled in the air, stirring up a gust of wind every time it flapped its wings.
Gavin's eyes were cold and determined as he looked down at King's Landing Harbor below. His fleet was approaching King's Landing Harbor quietly like a ghost hidden in the darkness.
Gavin carefully observed the situation, waiting for the best opportunity.
Until the Belleris was the first to break out of the night and bring the Royal Fleet within range.
Gavin's eyes focused, and he tapped Chiying lightly. Chiying seemed to understand his command and suddenly dived down. The speed was so fast that people only felt a black shadow flashing by.
The swooping Blazing Shadow spewed dragon flames at a warship of the Royal Fleet. The flames were like a fierce torrent that instantly engulfed the warship.
The high temperature flames and powerful impact force caused the warship to fall apart instantly, wood chips flew everywhere, flames shot up into the sky, and ignited the wine barrels, causing an explosion.
As the explosion sounded, King's Landing fell into chaos.
People were shouting in terror and running around.
The soldiers just reacted, their eyes widened, their faces full of disbelief and horror.
But by then, it was too late. Gavin's fleet had already emerged from the night, attacking the defenseless Royal Fleet like a group of ferocious sharks.
The crossbows were like roaring beasts, continuously pouring rain of arrows at the warships of the royal fleet.
Those sharp arrows were like deadly ghosts, cutting through the air with a sharp whistling sound.
The powerful penetrating force caused wood chips to fly everywhere, and some soldiers were even pierced by flying crossbow arrows. They fell to the ground in pain, screaming miserably, and these screams intensified the panic of others.
The flags on the warships fluttered weakly in the wind. The warships of the royal fleet were riddled with holes and wood chips flying everywhere under the baptism of rain of arrows.
Chaos spread like a surging tide.
The soldiers who had lost their command had fear in their eyes. Under this sudden attack, they did not fight back, but chose to escape at the first opportunity.
As the first man took the lead in escaping, more and more soldiers joined the fleeing team.
They rushed to the shore like a group of disturbed ants. Some people were so panicked that they jumped directly from the boat into the sea, splashing high into the water.
Those who jumped off the warship struggled hard in the sea and swam towards King's Landing desperately, as if that was their only lifeline.
The once majestic warships have now become a nightmare place that soldiers are eager to escape from.
At this time, Gavin was riding on Blazing Shadow in the sky, looking at the chaotic Royal Fleet below with no mercy in his eyes.
The Blazing Shadow opened its huge mouth again and poured out dragon flames towards the warships. The blazing flames were like sharp swords, instantly setting the warships on fire.
In a short while, another six or seven warships were destroyed by the high temperature flames and powerful impact. The hulls were broken, the wooden boards were blown away, and the flames shot up into the sky, illuminating the entire King's Landing Harbor.
As flames shot up into the sky and screams were heard from the port, the golden-robed men guarding the city walls became alert instantly.
They stared with wide eyes at the chaos and terror in the direction of the port.
Soon, a soldier in a gold robe reacted and immediately sounded the alarm of an enemy attack.
The heavy bell sounded in the night sky and spread throughout King's Landing.
Although the soldiers were very panicked, the officer on duty quickly stood out from the panicked crowd.
He shouted loudly: "Don't panic! Prepare the dragon hunting crossbows!" Under the command of the officers, the soldiers acted in a hurry.
"Quick, take out the crossbow!"
The soldiers hurriedly opened the armory and took out the crossbows. In the panic, many of them knocked over the objects beside them. They hurriedly adjusted the crossbows and pushed out the giant crossbow specially used to shoot dragons.
"Aim towards the port!" the officer ordered again.
The soldiers pushed the crossbow with great effort, aiming it at the port. However, their hands were still shaking slightly, and their eyes were filled with fear.
"Sir, that is really a dragon. Is this crossbow useful?" a soldier asked in a trembling voice.
"I don't know. As long as we can deter the dragon riders from attacking us, that'll be enough." The officer replied nervously.
Under the command of the officers, the soldiers, although panicked, gradually stabilized their position and nervously waited for the enemy's further actions.
The blazing shadow continued to rage over the port, turning the entire port into a sea of fire. At this time, Gavin on the dragon's back also noticed the movement on the city wall.
When he saw those dragon-hunting crossbows, he understood in his heart that the city wall had now become a shell with thorns. However, his goal was only to destroy the royal fleet. He had no plans to attack King's Landing for the time being, so there was no need to take the risk of attacking the city wall. Moreover, the distance between the port and the city wall was too far, and the range of these crossbows was not enough. There was no need to worry about the threat of crossbow arrows.
He turned his head to look at the warships of the royal fleet that had fallen into chaos in the harbor. Flames flickered on the sea, illuminating the broken hulls and the fleeing soldiers.
Once Robert dies, Westeros will be in chaos. Gavin only needs to wait quietly and choose a suitable opportunity to easily seize the Iron Throne. There is no need to take action now. Destroying the royal fleet is the top priority. Having control of the sea means having the initiative. Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in Gavin's eyes and he decided to speed up the pace of the attack.
The Blazing Shadow seemed to sense his master's determination, and he let out a low roar before diving into the sea of fire again.
