Game of Thrones: Battle Royale Game
Chapter 100 Pantos
At the dawn of a new day, Ian's ship finally sighted the coast of Pentos.
The morning sun rises from the back of the city, and the port under the morning light is orange and beautiful.
Looking at the approaching city, Ian's thoughts wandered a little.
Pentos is one of the nine free trade city-states. It is located in the west of the Essos continent and faces Westeros across the narrow sea. It is the free trade city-state closest to King's Landing.
It is the most densely populated city among the nine free trade city-states. It has maritime trade with the Seven Kingdoms and the coast of the Jade Sea. It can also trade overland with Fornos, Qohor and even the distant Vaes Dothraki. .
To the east of the city is the vast plain, which is thousands of miles of fertile land and has considerable farming potential.
The point is that after Pentos was defeated by the Braavos about 90 years ago, they signed a peace agreement that stipulated that the Pentos could not own more than 20 warships, hire mercenaries, or have an army beyond the city guard.
So this huge walled city is actually quite vulnerable.
Um, wait, Ian suddenly slapped his head, what the hell was I thinking? You only have less than ten swords in your hand, and you want to take the city? Aren't you afraid of scratching your balls with such big steps?
Shaking his head, Ian brought his thoughts back to the present moment.
"Daeron," Ian told the second son of Earl Grafson beside him about his plan, "you should know the location of Governor Illyrio's mansion, right? We will go directly to him after we get off the ship."
"Uh" Darylon was stunned for a moment, and then he said nonchalantly, "I did attend Governor Illyrio's banquet, but he doesn't often live in that house. I heard that Governor Illyrio owns three large-scale apartments in Pentos. official residence, and countless properties.”
"So, you don't know where Governor Illyrio usually lives?" Ian frowned, "Forget it, just find the mansion you have been to. After we inform the guards of our identity, they will naturally Illyrio will be contacted."
"Another Westeros noble? Come on!" The guard captain looked at Daeron and drove him away unceremoniously. "The Governor has given orders that all nobles from Westeros will disappear!"
"I'm warning you, I'm from the Grafson family of Seagull Town." Darren felt a surge of anger in his heart, and the next moment he was interrupted by the guard captain with a mocking tone.
"The last illegitimate son of the Martell family is ten times more powerful than you! And the last knight of the Mouton family, but when the Governor checked, they were all fakes! Get out of here, don't force us to take action!"
"I know Governor Illyrio. If the Governor knows that you are so neglectful of me, he will definitely..." Daeron pointed at the guard's nose.
"Are you going to get out or not?" the guard captain said as he waved his hand, asking the Unsullied around him to move forward and level their spears.
The other party's action frightened Darren and he quickly took several steps back, and suddenly bumped into Ian's body.
Of course, Ian would not continue to get into trouble with this whole team of Unsullied guards here, so he turned around and left, walking towards the side street.
Darren felt a little embarrassed for a moment and could only quickly follow Ian.
"Ian, listen to me." After stopping in a deserted corner, Darren said with a sneer. He once patted his chest and promised Ian that he was a guest of Governor Illyrio, but he found it here casually. He was kicked out of a mansion and felt that he had been completely humiliated.
Ian listened patiently to Darren's defense.
Of course he knew that the current situation was not Daeron's fault. Logically speaking, Daeron went directly to one of Illyrio's residences to reveal his identity. The housekeeper would naturally inform Illyrio, and then Illyrio would receive him soon. This is a matter of course.
Who would have thought that there would be so many fake Westeros nobles in recent times?
Needless to say those impostors, Ian also knew that they must be those players who racked their brains just to get in front of Daenerys.
Unexpectedly, Illyrio's intelligence network on the other side of the narrow sea (actually Varys) was so developed that he exposed them one by one.
This also caused Illyrio to lose patience with the so-called 'nobles of Westeros'. As a result, Ian and the others now can't even pass the gate guard level.
"You know Governor Illyrio personally, right?" Ian asked after Darren finished speaking.
"Of course, we have met several times. Pentos is an important midpoint on our route. Yes! Yes, Illyrio knows me," Darren thought of something and quickly found it for himself.
"As long as I meet Illyrio himself, he will naturally confirm my identity. When the time comes, I must stop these ungrateful things."
"The question is how are we going to meet Illyrio himself?" Ian interrupted Darren, who had no idea for the time being.
If you know exactly where Illyrio lives, you can block the door, but Illyrio has hundreds of properties in Pentos.
This is so damn disgusting.
"This" Darren was embarrassed again. He tilted his head to one side and avoided Ian's eyes.
After a few minutes, Ian spoke again: "You have attended Governor Illyrio's Chamber of Commerce banquet before, right? So is it possible for us to get an invitation letter to the banquet and arrive when he holds a related banquet next time? Go in front of him?"
"That's right!" Darren was reminded, "Illyrio will convene his chamber of commerce members and merchants who want to cooperate with him to hold a banquet in the middle of every month, but"
As he spoke, Dai Lun's voice became softer again, "Applying for the qualification to attend the banquet requires a qualification review. If my ship is still there, there is no problem in getting the qualification."
"You can't qualify now?"
"I am not a member of Illyrio's Chamber of Commerce. My wealth is not up to standard. I used to apply for it on my own every time I went to a banquet, but now I no longer have a ship."
"What are the minimum application requirements for participating in the banquet?" Ian thought for a while and asked.
"Three merchant ships capable of navigating the Narrow Sea or an ocean galleon capable of navigating the Summer Sea and the Shivering Sea."
Damn it. Ian, who was originally thinking about the possibility of using his wealth to purchase things that met the application requirements, suddenly felt bad.
Ships are the most expensive things in this era. A merchant ship that can cross the narrow sea costs at least several hundred gold dragons, while an ocean-going sailing ship can easily cost thousands of gold dragons. The best ships can even cost thousands of gold dragons.
For example, in the original book, Governor Illyrio's three ocean-going ships that were 'confiscated' by Dragon Mother in Slaver's Bay were able to go to Yi. According to the valuation of the slave owners in Astapor, those three ships could be exchanged for a thousand Unsullied. By.
Ian has more than 6,000 golden dragons in total, and he has no intention of spending half of them to buy a boat.
Not to mention the issue of resource waste, as ‘Ian Hewen’, he could not explain the source of this wealth.
"By the way!" Darren suddenly interrupted Ian's thinking, "I have some friends in the Chamber of Commerce in Pentos. Maybe we can ask them for help."
