A Western fantasy journey that began with Game of Thrones

The flame in the fireplace beside him burned quietly, making the shadows of the old maester and Renly appear narrow and vague. Holding a letter of help written on parchment in his hand, the young figure standing by the fireplace was lost in thought.

The current situation in the entire Westeros continent is actually very bad.

People on Dragonstone Island may not be aware of this, but in fact, at this time, the seven kingdoms, both civilians and nobles, have fallen into panic.

The disaster that erupted from the far north grew like a snowball in a short period of time. Letters of help continued to fly from the north to all over the world with alarming frequency.

But those black wings never brought any good news.

The Northern Territory is vast, but so far, nearly half of the territory has fallen to the wave of monsters.

Facing the army of ghouls that are getting bigger and bigger, the more they resist, the more numerous they are. No lord in the north can fight against them. In the face of disaster, a few castles are strong enough to hide in the buildings and survive, but most of them are in The common people in the villages and towns outside the castle could not escape the fate of being swallowed up and then turning into corpses to bite back the human race.

Two days before Renly received the letter asking for help from King's Landing, news of the fall of the castle closest to the Stark family's Winterfell in the north had already spread. At this moment, it is not difficult to guess that the army of zombies may have been overrun. Cross the borders of Winterfell.

This situation is dangerous.

Can the hope in the episode in the memory of the previous life still be born?

Renly had no hope for this, and he didn't believe that the wights would fight in Winterfell. In fact, although the castle was strategically located, it was only for human military operations, not for the wave of monsters. , there is no reason for them to be delayed there. After all, Winterfell is not a dangerous level where only one man can pass it and no one can open it.

It can be foreseen that these monsters will soon cross the border of the North and enter the river, and even the royal territory adjacent to the river, which is the area where King's Landing is located.

So in general, it was not too surprising for him to have a letter of help coming to Dragonstone. After all, many of the things he had done were obviously not something that normal people could do.

But the letter of help coming in at this moment is a bit subtle, because the army of zombies has not yet broken through the Neck, an important pass between the North and Westeros.

The Neck is a vast swamp that spans the entire continent between the North and the Riverlands. Relying on this for thousands of years, the northerners never regarded forces outside the north as a threat, until the Targaryen dragons came.

Before Targaryen, no one had ever been able to forcibly break through the natural barrier of the Neck. Regardless of their purpose, all enemies who invaded the north would be defeated at the Neck—

Only a small number of troops stationed in towers in the swamp can withstand dozens or hundreds of times the enemy invasion. The Neck is a natural protective umbrella for the northerners, but for the undisciplined White Walkers, this natural barrier is obviously More effective.

Without having to investigate, Renly could guess that what the lords of Westeros except the North were most looking forward to was for the ghoul army to return in defeat in the Neck, and then be restricted in the North and unable to spread outwards. Understand certain circumstances, the probability of this possibility is still very high, even Renly himself has this idea.

In other words, it seems that no one will despair of this disaster until this hope is dashed.

So why is this letter of help being sent now?

If they had a good relationship, it wouldn't matter. The problem is that the two sides had a lot of trouble not long ago. Being able to take the initiative to "lower face" and write this letter with a posture of praying for humility has revealed some special news silently.

"There's something going on that we don't know about," he finally concluded.

"With all due respect, my lord, I don't think it can be worse than now." The old maester at the desk commented, "Unless the White Walkers appear under King's Landing."

"It's not impossible." Renly shrugged.

…

Overall, there was still no clue about the matter, and Renly didn't intend to pay attention to the letter.

It's not because of personal grudges, but because he has no effective way to fight against those corpses——

Although there is a large amount of dragon crystal mine in the Dragonstone Island at the foot, the dragon crystal mine is effective against the White Walkers, but it is unlikely to be of any use against the huge number of corpses.

And it is obvious that as the core of controlling the ghoul army, any white ghost will not be exposed actively, but can only be hidden in the abdomen of a huge army of ghouls. In this case, if you want to eliminate them from the massive enemies, It is not an easy task to dig it out and use dragon crystal weapons to fight against it.

The seven gods on the wrist have become silent again. The spokesperson currently has no clue and cannot be counted on at all. Renly's own ability alone is also impossible to resist the wave of monsters.

In this case, it was a wise choice to huddle in Dragonstone and think of a solution. He was said to be a god, but he was not a god. Being helpless, Renly did not want to run out and mix with enemies who were destined to be unlikely allies. Together.

However, he didn't want to, and he had to think about what happened next.

The day after the first letter for help, another letter flew in, and the things written in the letter were simple but deadly——

The monster army can wade through the sea and then bypass the neck barrier that hinders its progress.

There are already scattered ghouls appearing in the Riverlands!
