Li Yun thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Still a warrior, I don't want to be a knight."

Daenerys chuckled and said, "Can't the dragon knight also do it?"

Li Yun was slightly startled, then turned to look at the three young dragons that were eating. After thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "The real strong man should fly on his own power like Boss Lin!"

Daenerys curled her lips: "It's not like you learned Ghidorah. How can you fly without a magnetic gravitational field?"

Li Yun smiled and said: "Who told you that my technique can't fly? Have you seen Iron Man?"

Daenerys thought thoughtfully: "You want to fly violently like a rocket...but that would be too ugly!"

Li Yun didn't care: "It doesn't matter, as long as it's practical."

Daenerys snorted twice, stopped chatting with him, turned to look at the three young dragons and said: "Dracarys (Dragon Flame)!"

The three young dragons simultaneously sprayed out golden-red flames, roasting the remaining flesh and blood in the basin, and then continued to eat.

Not long after, Daenerys and her party were welcomed into Astapor, a famous city in Slaver's Bay.

Five thousand years ago, the rise of Valyria destroyed the ancient Empire of Gith. Astapor was one of the surviving colonies. It was once conquered by Valyria's hot dragonfire and built into a center of the slave trade. .

Today, the mighty Valyria are a thing of the past, but their legacy continues to ferment. The Astapor people living here have forgotten the ancient Ghiscari language, or, to be precise, the entire slave population. The city-states in the Gulf all speak Old Valyrian, the language forced upon them by their conquerors.

There is a red brick fountain in the center of Pride Square, and in the center of the fountain is a harpy statue.

She is the symbol of the legendary Gughis Empire. She has a face that looks like a woman, gilded hair, eyes and teeth made of ivory. Dragon-like wings grow where her arms should have been. Her lower body is like an eagle's legs, and behind her are A curly scorpion tail.

From her paw hung a heavy chain, with an unclosed shackle at each end.

This is the unique harpy shape of Astapor, symbolizing the glory of slave owners.

In Astapor, when a slave master planned to take their customers to watch their slaves, they would come to the Pride Square, which is why Daenerys and her party appeared here.

Looking at the shackled slaves with their bare breasts exposed and numb expressions, Li Yun frowned tightly.

"This city should be burned to the ground."

He said in a low voice, with a suppressed anger that he had never heard before.

Daenerys understood his anger and patted his arm gently to comfort her, then turned to look ahead.

On the huge steps in the square in front, a tall man with brown-red skin sat on a luxurious sofa. He was wearing a toka robe with gold tassels. He held a short leather whip in his right hand. His fatness was covered by light cyan silk. His body was clasped at one shoulder like a gorgeous bed sheet, making him look like a gorgeously dressed beggar.

He is the Good Master of Krazni, who runs the sale of the Unsullied on behalf of eight of Astapor's most powerful slavers.

Seeing what Li Yun said in a low voice, Lord Krazny frowned, tilted his head and said, "What is that Westeros barbarian talking about?"

Beside him, the slave girl who acted as a translator whispered in a panic: "Sorry, Master, I don't understand. What he said is not the common language of Westeros, nor is it any language I have learned..."

"Snapped--"

The good Lord Krazny whipped her, cursing and complaining that slave girls were useless.

Seeing this scene, Daenerys frowned. Judging from the appearance, the girl was less than ten years old. She had an ordinary appearance, with a flat round face, dark skin, and eyes unique to Nath people. of gold.

Her nation is called a peaceful people. They are naturally gentle and submissive, making them the best candidates for slaves.

"Where are the Unsullied soldiers I want?"

Daenerys shouted in the Common Tongue of Westeros.

Finally hearing a familiar language, the slave girl was relieved and quickly translated: "The woman of Westeros wants to see the goods."

Lord Krazny curled his lips and waved the gold-decorated whip in his hand.

The servant waiting at the edge of the Pride Square received the order immediately, brandishing his whip and shouting a few words in Valyrian.

After the words fell, a burst of uniform footsteps came from outside the Pride Square.

Daenerys looked in the direction of the sound and saw a black mass of slave soldiers walking into the square at the same pace, forming ten rows in front of the fountain and the majestic bronze harpy statue, one in each row. One hundred people, a total of one thousand unsullied ones.

They wore nothing but white linen cloth wrapped around their waists and conical bronze helmets on their heads with a foot-high spike on them - there was a saying in Astapor about the Wulessness. According to the Tainter, from the day he won the Spiked Helmet, the most difficult life has passed. From now on, any mission will not be as harsh as the original training.

Because before winning the Spiked Helm, the Unsullied must take a silver coin, go to the slave market, find a crying newborn baby, buy it, and kill it in front of the baby's mother.

Any Unsullied who cannot do this will be executed by the slavers.

This kind of training is to erase their humanity and turn them into killing machines that only know how to obey orders.

In order to achieve this goal, slave owners also developed many inhumane trainings. For example, on the day each boy was castrated, the slave owner would give him a puppy, let him raise it until the end of the first year, and then strangle it to death with his own hands. , boys who cannot do it will be executed immediately, and their flesh and blood will be fed to the surviving dogs.

The most ironic thing is that the passing rate of this test is much lower than the infant test.

Daenerys knew about the training process of the Unsullied in her previous life, but when she actually saw these Unsullied, she couldn't help but feel a wave of anger in her heart.

At this moment, all the Unsullied stood straight on the spot, their eyes looking straight ahead without emotion.

The summer in Astapor is extremely hot. Even Daenerys, who has 3 points of physical strength, shed a few drops of sweat, but these Unsullied people seemed to have no consciousness, standing expressionlessly in the sun. , letting the scorching sun bake their skin and bodies.

The slave girl told Daenerys that all Unsullied people have been trained since they were five years old. They practice from dawn to dusk every day until they are proficient in short swords, shields and three types of spears. This training is extremely harsh, with an average of Only one of the three boys survived.

Daenerys slowly examined the soldiers while listening to the slave girl's introduction.

Most of them were bronze-skinned Dothraki and Lazarin, as well as fair-skinned Qarthites, and dark-skinned Summer Islanders. Daenerys even saw a few of the good Lords of Krazni. The same Gughis race with brown-red skin, obviously they have not spared their clan members.

Good Lord Krazny said to the slave girl impatiently: "Tell that Westeros bitch that she doesn't have to look at it. The Unsullied are the best slave soldiers in the world. No matter how powerful the warrior is, he will be afraid of death." , but the Unsullied will not. Even if she draws out her sword and kills the nine hundred and ninety-nine people in front of her, the remaining person will stand motionless until death comes..."

The slave girl politely translated the words of the good Lord Krazny.

Daenerys said calmly: "Tell him I am pleased with his soldiers."

A smile appeared on Krazny's face and he said: "Ask this barbarian, how many Unsullied ones does she want to buy?"

Daenerys asked, "How many Unsullied do you have for sale?"

Lord Krazny smiled and said: "There are currently eight thousand fully trained Unsullied ones, but she has to know that we only sell them in round numbers of hundreds or thousands. In the past, we also sold ten Unsullied ones to Customers serve as personal guards, but it turns out that ten is too few. If they mix with other slaves or even free people, they will forget who they are, and then lose the combat power that belongs to the Unsullied..."

Daenerys looked at the Unsullied thoughtfully, and suddenly said: "I want them all!"

The slave girl was stunned for a moment, then looked at Daenerys with some surprise, and translated her words to the good master.

Lord Krazny was surprised when he heard this and couldn't help but said: "Are you sure?"

Daenerys nodded calmly and said: "I'm sure, and not only these eight thousand Unsullied, but also those who are still training, those who have not won the spiked helmet, and the boys who have just been castrated, I want them all!"
