Game of Thrones: Battle Royale Game

"Actually, it's not a big trouble," Taroben said after brewing for a minute, "I need you to help me deal with a few people."

"Assassination?" Isn't this a big deal?

"Oh no," Talobane waved his hand quickly, "Well, maybe it can be considered an assassination. But it's not the kind of assassination you think of. The other party is just a small group of street gangsters. You can easily find and deal with them. "

"that's all?"

"That's it, it's simple, isn't it?"

"Tell me the details. I'm curious about what kind of street gangster can make a businessman like you so troubled." Ian didn't believe a word of what Talobane said.

"Their leader is called 'Spearbreaker' Silva. He is active in the Pier Generation of Pentos. He has about ten people under his command, and their combat effectiveness is not low."

"A small group of street gangsters". "A team of mercenaries?" Ian asked rhetorically. He heard the system prompt and knew that the optional mission was triggered, but he didn't rush to see it.

"Ah, you are right to understand it this way."

"Mr. Talobane!" Ian resisted the urge to slap him, "If you really want us to solve your problem, you shouldn't hide anything from us."

"Yes, he is a mercenary, but he is also a street gangster, because he has been operating in the port of Pentos and making a living by helping the big shots in Pentos solve various problems."

"So, you are now a problem that some big shot needs to solve?"

"Oh! What you said is too exaggerated. That's not the case, absolutely not." Tarobine quickly denied

"Well, no matter they are mercenaries or street gangsters, as a member of Illyrio's Chamber of Commerce, you would actually worry about such a trivial matter? You previously offered us a reward of 100 gold dragons. With this money, You could easily find a mercenary team of hundreds of people to help you solve this problem, but you chose us? Why?"

"That's me." Tarobian wanted to say that I gave you a chance to get the invitation just because you were pitiful, but he quickly remembered that he did not provide such a charity when the other party returned disappointed, but The other party discovered his purpose.

"Two possibilities. First, the mercenary team of 'Spearbreaker' Silva is very dangerous. You can't find mercenaries willing to deal with them. But this possibility is very small." In Westeros, ordinary The soldiers are willing to try to catch the "Hound" Sandor Clegane for 100 silver deer. Do the people of Pentos lack courage?

"Because as long as the money is enough, there is no saying that mercenaries dare not take risks, so I prefer the second possibility. The power behind the 'Spear Breaker' makes the mercenaries of Pentos dare not offend.

Or at least no one in Pentos dares to offend the people he serves now." Ian said with a joking smile, "In other words, things are back to what I said originally, you are now a problem that needs to be solved by some big shot. "

Tarobian was silent for a few seconds, and then spoke again: "The thing is, I have a smuggling ship. According to time, it will enter the port this week, but my warehouse is damned The 'Spear Breaker' is targeting me, so..."

"Who is the employee of the Spearbreaker?" Ian asked directly without continuing to listen to his story.

In fact, by this point, Ian had already given up. Talobane's words were flashing and his lies were lying one after another. It was obvious that there was a huge secret behind his mission.

Ian didn't want to offend any big shot in Pentos before meeting Illyrio. After all, it was still more than two months before Dany and the Horse King left Pentos in the original book. , during this period of time, I have to stay in Pantos.

"Employer? No, this is just his own behavior. He wants to take advantage of me."

"So 'Spearbreaker' is a street gangster who also makes a living in anti-smuggling, right?"

"this"

"Do we look that stupid?"

"Since you are so dishonest, then our cooperation may not be able to continue." Ian said, standing up.

Taroben also quickly stood up, but then he realized that he should be confident, so he sat down again.

"You need an invitation letter to Governor Illyrio's banquet. I must remind you that the banquet at the Governor's Mansion this month has been brought forward to 'Serion's Day', which is the day after tomorrow. If you think you can get it from me in a day and a half, If you get an invitation from somewhere other than here, then just go ahead." Talobin said firmly.

"But who told you that we must see Governor Illyrio as soon as possible? Before the horse king arrives in Pentos, we have plenty of time to find a way to see Governor Illyrio." After Ian finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Ian's words were both irritating and true. Although he hasn't thought of a good solution for the time being, he is really not in a hurry. As long as he stays in Pentos and holds Daeron's 'key' in his hand, can he really never see Illyrio again?

He asked Darren to find a 'friend' for help to save trouble, not to cause trouble.

"Wait!" Tarobine finally called out to Ian, "I can tell you more, but you must first promise to help me solve the trouble."

Ian was still walking out and didn't look back.

"Okay! I'll tell you the truth first, and then you can decide whether to help, okay?"

After hearing this, Ian stopped and planned to listen to what Tarobane had to say. After all, the final decision rested with him.

What he didn't expect was that Talobane seemed to have exhausted his imagination in making up stories, and the words he spoke were heavy-handed.

"My ship is a slave ship." Talobane said directly.

"Slave transport." Ian choked. He finally understood why Talobane, as a member of the Illyrio Chamber of Commerce, couldn't even solve such a trivial matter as 'smuggling'. It turned out that the goods he was smuggling were slaves.

"That's right," Talobane saw the shock on Ian's face, so he explained, "Pantos has abolished slavery since it was defeated by Braavos, but in fact, the upper class of Pentos society The demand for slaves remained high.

The nobles took off the collars of the slaves and pretended to make them free citizens, but at the same time they saddled the slaves with huge debts that they could not repay in their lifetimes.

Because of the ban, the profits of the slave trade in Pantos are much higher than those in the Third Daughter City-State. While we conduct normal trade, we occasionally bring a batch of 'good goods' when passing through Slaver's Bay. Especially the bed slaves of Yunkai, they are proficient in the seven spring cries and the sixteen sexual positions in the pleasure field, and are very popular among the nobles of Pentos."

"Since the private slave trade is an open secret, why are you worried about problems with your slave ship?" Ian interrupted Talobane and asked his own question.

"Because of partisanship."

Ps: I know many readers want to see the protagonist come to the Dragon Mother as soon as possible, but in fact, as long as he stays in Pentos City, the protagonist cannot make any small moves in front of Viserys and the Dragon Mother (this will cause Eli Leo's vigilance), so the Dragon Mother will still have very few scenes during the two months the protagonist is in Pentos.

The second volume is called [Victor of Pentos]. In this volume, I will fully present Pantos, which was rarely described in the original work. The end of this volume can definitely hold up the 'big climax'. word.

Also: Readers who particularly want to see the characters in the play/original work or the direction of the original plot should be careful before ordering, because judging from the outline, the protagonist will not have much before he conquers most of Essos and returns to Westeros. The characters in the play will appear (all the characters in the Long Ma line in the original work should appear), and the plot direction may deviate from the original work from the beginning because there are too many variables (players).

Later in this book, more content should be shown about those parts mentioned in the original work but not described in detail.

I don’t want to waste any reader’s money, so I’ll give you a reminder first.
