Game of Thrones: I loaded the Witcher system
Chapter 182 The tip of the iceberg
"died?"
"Dead. Finally, he was dug out of the ruins and found something that could prove his identity."
Clay played with the wine glass and showed a thoughtful look. This little knight who might be a participant in the ambush died at the wrong time just like Ed Stark.
For a little knight like this, the fiefdom is actually a village, and their so-called castle is probably a two- or three-story wooden attic. It is unlikely to be made of stone, unless there is a good source of stone near the fiefdom.
But even so, even if it is burned down, no one can escape. This unknown little family will have its bloodline cut off from now on. There is something wrong with this in itself.
This is not burning cotton. The climate of the Riverland itself is humid. If there is a simple fire, no one can escape. It is not a completely closed environment. The pungent smoke will wake people up immediately.
"Is there any follow-up to this matter?"
"No more. The whole place was burned to ashes. There's no way to check it. It's a small village with a small number of people. His castle is not in the village yet. It's in a separate location some distance outside the village."
"When the fire was discovered by sleeping villagers and they rushed over with people, the fire was already out of control. We had to wait for the fire to burn out before looking for someone to dig out from the ashes."
The old man clicked his tongue. This clearly showed that there was a problem, but if he did it so cleanly that no problem could be found, then there would be no problem.
"Clay, I actually don't understand who has the ability to do such a thing under the eyes of the Frey family. Moreover, what is the purpose? There is no oil and water in that place. I have gone to see it myself. "
"It's very simple. Someone doesn't want us to investigate this matter anymore. This is a warning to us. Moreover, I have to say that the destruction of the bodies and traces was very beautiful and very clean."
When Clay said this, his tone was very calm. He already understood the ins and outs of this matter.
I and Aenys Frey, who had already been sent to the seven hells, had met that guy once when they went to investigate this matter together. Moreover, they were in a hurry at that time, and they had hastily arranged the scene, so there must be something left. flaw.
Clay noticed something was wrong at the time, but didn't show anything. It was impossible for these people to know that he had seen the problem. So, if something like this happened again, there was only one explanation. They were not here for Clay at all.
In other words, the little knight's territory that I didn't have time to go to at that time might really have a big problem, so these people were so anxious to clean up the traces after Clay left.
They know that Clay will definitely know about this matter in the end. Even if the Mandalay family does not control the Twins, Master Clay Mandalay will definitely be able to find out this matter if he wants to.
"Interesting, grandpa, being able to do this without the Frey family being aware of it is not something that ordinary people can do. That is to say, this is a little knight. If the territory were bigger, it would not be what it is now. situation."
Clay remembered that the old man told him two interesting things, so he asked instead:
"I know this. I will pay attention to it when I have time. Grandpa, what is the second interesting thing you mentioned?"
The old man knew that Clay wanted to ask, and he definitely wanted to tell Clay about this matter, but this matter was a bit strange, and he still hadn't figured it out clearly. He said:
"Clay, do you remember this kid Robb Stark? Oh, we should call him His Majesty Robb now. He has a sister."
"He has two sisters, one older and one younger. Which one do you want to say?"
"The younger one's name is Arya Stark."
"I know, I saw a very wild little girl in Winterfell. Oh, by the way, I remember she disappeared when we returned north? Have you found her now?"
Clay suddenly remembered that the Stark family actually had a wild little wolf wandering outside. Thinking of this, Clay suddenly thought of the guy named Jaqen H'ghar.
No way……
"It hasn't been found yet. What I want to tell you is this. When our people took over the land of the Frey family, they arrived at a small village in the south. The local little nobles told us that in their land, Dig up some of the buried bodies.”
"These corpses were buried carelessly. When the farmers went to work in the fields, they dug them out because of the stench. These people were wearing armor from our Northern Army. To be precise, they were direwolf armor. As for that location, Rob never passed by it when he went south."
Clay understood what the old man meant and blurted out:
"You mean, those are the personal guards who followed Ed Stark into King's Landing?"
The old man nodded. His grandson's thinking speed always satisfied him.
"Yes, I later contacted the members of the Guards who were recuperating in Twins City and escaped from King's Landing City. Based on some characteristics, they recognized the identities of those people. Moreover, some of them were very sure that there were some of them responsible for the separation. The one who protects Arya Stark."
Clay was stunned for a moment, and then his dark brows instantly furrowed. As the commander-in-chief of a large army in charge of a battlefield at that time, he knew very well the arrangements of the northern army at that time.
It can be said that the place where the bones were found was quite far away from the main battlefield. At that time, they all judged that Arya Stark and her guards must have crossed the battlefield and walked north. It seems to be true now. .
But here comes the problem. At that time, all the armies were further south. The purpose of the confrontation between the two sides was to force the other side to retreat. How could these people who had fled the main battlefield be killed at this position?
"Did the locals do it?"
"I thought so at first, but then I looked at the strength of the little knights. Judging from their careless appearance, I am sure that they are not capable of killing those northern warriors who have experienced hundreds of battles."
"Besides, after killing someone, why not steal the armor? Otherwise, what reason would they have to kill?"
Clay understood what the old man meant, which meant that it was definitely not done by these people, so the next question hit him directly in the face.
Who did this? Also, where is Arya Stark?
Don't think that a little girl is not important. Although she is small, and inheritance has nothing to do with her, her presence can sometimes be very useful. In my memory, this was the case after Roose Bolton took over Winterfell. Dry.
Not a Stark, not a Lannister, who could it be?
Clay suddenly realized that he seemed to have overlooked a very key person, and an area that had always had a very low sense of existence, but was actually very powerful.
What have you been doing in the valley during this time?
In this place, if all wrong answers are eliminated, no matter how unreasonable the remaining answers are, they are the only correct answers.
"Grandpa, I suspect that Arya Stark is probably in the hands of the people in the valley now."
Clay touched his chin and looked at his old man.
The old man was not surprised when he heard this. He also had suspicions, but he never understood why.
Although the Eyrie City controlled by Lysa Tully is now closed to the blood gate, it is still an in-laws' marriage, so there is no reason to attack a little girl like Arya Stark.
Therefore, the old man has always been doubtful that it was Gudi who did this, because he can't understand the logic behind it at all, but Clay knows very well that there is a person who can do this.
It has to be said that that guy tricked him in Winterfell, and he has not appeared in Clay's sight since then. Now that he is fine, he is probably the one who caused this incident.
Whether it's Sansa or Arya, his ultimate goal is clear to Clay. The phrase "Chaos is a ladder" expresses the true goal in his heart.
Clay thought about the burning of the little knight just mentioned. He had a feeling that these things were inseparable from the people of the valley. If this was really the case, it would mean that the man behind the scenes had control over the valley. Stronger than he thought.
This is not good news. The valley is closed to Clay and the entire North. No one knows what they are going to do.
