Game of Thrones: I Created the Magic Web

Chapter 162 "Crow's Eye" Euron

The screen froze on the moment after the slave's face was changed again.

Ignoring the "noob" phone.

Joffrey pressed the Red Woman's head down further.

Warm pleasure and serious thoughts intertwined and collided rapidly in his brain.

Is it "Crow's Eye" Euron?

He dared to make a move this early? What conspiracy and trump cards does he have?

Has his warship, the black-sailed, red-hulled "Silence," returned to the Seven Kingdoms from Essos? Where is it now?

Did he get the "Dragon Horn"?

Perhaps because of lust, or perhaps because of surprise and accident, Joffrey's face wore a wanton and comfortable smile.

"Crow's Eye," Euron Greyjoy.

The Security Council forwarded this urgent message from Pyke. To be honest, Joffrey had never considered that this event would happen so early.

Balon Greyjoy is dead.

He died in his study and was buried beneath the waves of the sea.

The one who did it was a "Faceless Man."

The ending was no different from the original plot, but the timing was too early.

A Faceless Man hired by "Crow's Eye" Euron?

This conjecture, which was not clearly stated in the original book, seems to be confirmed here.

After all, Faceless Men don't kill people for no reason.

If they don't accept an assassination mission, Faceless Men will never interfere in the life and death of others.

Joffrey believes he knows Faceless Men quite well.

This is a religious assassin group that believes in the Many-Faced God. They are based in the "House of Black and White" in Braavos, a free trade city-state across the Narrow Sea.

Religion makes people crazy.

Followers of the Many-Faced God can be regarded as reserve members of the Faceless Men.

The House of Black and White selects people from among the believers and trains them rigorously in assassination, disguise, poisoning, and stealth until the trainee successfully gains the ability to change their appearance, that is, they are promoted to "Faceless Man."

Faceless Men are distributed over a wide area, but they claim to have originated in the Valyrian Freehold.

Valar morghulis, all men must die.

Valar dohaeris, all men must serve.

Faceless Men accept and complete assassination missions, serving the Many-Faced God by granting death.

Death is not free.

Faceless Men charge a high price for killing people, and the more difficult and important the target, the more expensive it is.

Of course, Faceless Men don't think they are making money. Instead, they make petitioners pay the price to test their sincerity.

By paying the price, they will take the life of one person in the world as a sacrifice to God.

What a plausible argument.

If he were in an ordinary world, Joffrey would only think this was brainwashing.

But in A Song of Ice and Fire...

How does the power of the assassin come about? What is the secret of the Many-Faced God?

Joffrey was puzzled and curious.

In order to find the answer, he had previously specifically checked the Red Keep's dungeon, but unfortunately, he failed to find the Faceless Man disguised as "Jaqen H'ghar" in the dungeon.

It seems that Faceless Men will not run to him on their own.

Fortunately.

Joffrey breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, "Crow's Eye" Euron and the Faceless Men appeared in his sight at the same time.

He will not let go of any prey.

"Osha, stay in Pyke, watch the changes, and wait for orders."

Through magic, information was instantly transmitted from the east coast of Westeros to the Iron Islands on the west coast.

As the commander of the Kingsguard assault squad, Osha had already put on her armor and equipment, and her nineteen subordinates were also on standby, obviously prepared.

Joffrey then contacted the Security Minister, Aelin.

"Search the sea area within one or two days' voyage around the Iron Islands with all your strength to find the 'Silence'."

Euron's ship is very recognizable.

"It has a dark red hull, black sails, and a single mast. The bow is a black iron maiden statue with mother-of-pearl eyes and no mouth."

"All the crew members are mute. Except for the captain, 'Crow's Eye' Euron Greyjoy."

"Yes, Your Majesty. Guarantee to complete the task."

Aelin immediately took the order and not only assigned this key task to everyone in the Security Council, but also took an "eye" himself to personally take charge.

Joffrey disconnected the communication.

The Red Woman had already stood up, licking the corner of her mouth, and devoutly stroked her obviously bulging belly.

It seemed that she was four or five months pregnant.

"Your Majesty, you see, this is the crystallization that the great Lord of Light has given us."

Melisandre's tone was gentle and firm, "It contains vast and great power, warmth, tranquility, activity, and lightness."

"It's about to grow up, in two or three days."

The Red Woman's expression was like a mother's, joyful and looking forward to the birth of the baby in her womb, but her eyes were like a servant's, fanatical and in awe of the coming of divine power.

"At that time, the shadow assassin who is born will bring victory to Your Majesty and implement the will of the Lord of Light."

Joffrey agreed with a sincere expression.

"Praise the Lord of Light."

He knew that Stannis seemed to be able to sense the actions of the shadow assassin in his dreams.

What about himself?

Joffrey witnessed the entire gestation process of the shadow assassin, and there was only one pattern that appeared out of thin air, like an advanced version of the spiritual rune.

He had an optimistic guess.

Perhaps, with his huge mental power and magic, he could control this shadow assassin, and even gain more knowledge or insights.

"Melly." Joffrey picked up the red robe from the ground and put it on her.

"The divine power of the Lord of Light will be the best explanation, and the lords and people of the Seven Kingdoms will not reject the true God. Our wishes will be realized."

Joffrey smiled gently, "Go and have a good rest. Come again tomorrow to consolidate the crystal."

"Come here."

The two maids outside the tent immediately walked in and helped Melisandre leave.

Only Joffrey was left alone in the tent.

Pacing and thinking.

Balon Greyjoy is dead, what should be done with the Iron Islands?

Support Theon to take the throne?

How to deal with Asha, Victarion, Euron, etc.?

And Euron.

Joffrey picked up the "noob" again and looked at the driftwood crown.

The crown carefully prepared by Balon was not driftwood, but made of black iron. It was completed a few days ago and reported to him by the Security Council.

It is not difficult to understand.

Balon would be crazy to want to restore the tradition of choosing a king.

As for this driftwood crown, according to the intelligence in Pyke, it should have been brought in from outside the city by the Faceless Man.

In other words, this is Euron's intention?

He wants to ascend to the throne through the Kingsmoot, like the plot in the original book, relying on the Dragon Horn? The dragons have not yet been resurrected.

Similarly, the plans issued by the Faceless Man in Balon's identity were all instructed by Euron, right?

Sneak attack on the Shield Islands, plundering the Reach.

Lure the Arbor fleet and promote the decisive battle of the three fleets, waiting for an opportunity to betray and attack.

How much does Euron know about the Royal Fleet?

Is his return so far in advance because of the early start of the war, or because of some prophecy, or the guidance of mysterious power?

At this time, the Security Council reported that a warship suspected of being the "Silence" was found in the distant sea west of the Iron Islands.

The picture was transferred over. It was indeed an evil black and red warship. The captain was wearing an eye patch, the crew was quiet and silent, the warship was sailing fast, and the wind direction was so smooth that it could be called perfect.

Joffrey was thoughtful.

The Drowned God.

The Storm God.
