Game of Thrones: Lord of the Deep

The Hall of a Thousand Seats is the center of power in Qarth, where the royal family rules the entire Qarth.

The royal family sat high on the huge wooden chairs of their ancestors. The wooden chairs were arranged in an arc, rising step by step from the marble floor to the high circular ceiling. The past glory of Qarth was painted on the ceiling. scene.

Those chairs were not only huge, but also had strange carvings. The gilded surface was bright and brilliant, inlaid with amber, agate, jade and emerald. Each chair was different and competed with each other.

Jack was invited to the Palace of Thousands by Mavis. The luxury here made Jack realize that he had underestimated the financial resources of the ancient nobles.

Mabius looked at the 20 Unsullied behind Jack and knew that Jack did not trust him, so he asked the slaves to bring up a box of gems.

"This is my meeting gift. Nice to meet you. Jack, is that a baby dragon in your arms?"

"Yes, it's a young dragon. Nice to meet you, Prince Mavis."

Jack probably guessed Mabius's intentions at this time, and it seemed that the information he had seen on the forum before was probably true.

Although Qarth is officially ruled by the Prince of Qarth, the management of the city is actually in the hands of the Chamber of Commerce and wizards.

Merchants and wizards are the aristocracy of Qarth.

In the American TV series, Zaro finally unites with the wizard to kill the remaining 13 giants and then declares that he will be the king of Qarth.

This shows that at that time, the royal family of Qarth probably no longer had the ability to resist.

As expected, he took Jack to the palace behind the Thousand-Seat Palace, and asked the slaves to prepare food and wine.

While Mabius was getting Jack drunk, he was making insinuations about Jack's origins.

Jack also cooperated and told his "origin". After Jack took a sip of wine, he said "drunkly":

"I come from an earl family in Westeros. A medium-sized gold mine was discovered in the territory. Although I am the second eldest child and have no inheritance rights, because I look like my father, he customized a large ship for me. Become a businessman."

"I'm very lucky and have successfully established a foothold in the business world. To put it bluntly, my wealth can easily support a standing army of thousands of people!"

Mabius's eyes lit up. The royal family of Qarth had four thousand standing troops, but they were all supported by the money of merchant nobles.

The money provided by that group of businessmen was just enough to maintain a standing army of four thousand, and even starting from the past few years, the supply was gradually reduced.

Mebis had not thought about eradicating these merchants before, but these merchants also had many slave soldiers.

Once they take action, the Chamber of Commerce will cut off the supply and slowly wear out the royal army.

But if the royal family has the support of other businessmen, the situation will be different.

Especially for a wealthy businessman like Jack who owns a giant ship, Mebis has every chance to eradicate these chambers of commerce in Qarth and truly rule Qarth.

Mabius never thought that Jack was bragging. After all, the Poseidon was the best proof.

But Mabius was in no hurry to present her ideas to Jack.

After all, for businessmen, the cost of supporting a war is very risky.

If you lose, you will lose everything, and may even lead to bankruptcy.

So Mavis decided to slowly test and fool Jack.

After having a full meal, Mabius arranged for Jack to stay in a luxurious palace.

Jack was a little surprised and wondered if he had guessed wrong.

But if he guessed wrong, how could the royal family of Qarth entertain him so warmly.

But if my guess is correct, why didn’t Mavis speak?

The two exchanged rumors about their own motives, and finally Mabius said that he would come to visit again tomorrow.

In addition, Mabius also hinted that the Thirteen Giants are not good people.

Let Jack be careful not to believe anything the Thirteen Giants say.

Jack watched Mavis leave, summoned an Unsullied, and asked him to bring eighty more Unsullied to the Poseidon.

On land, even in cities near the sea, Jack was extremely careful.

At the same time, Jack asked another Unsullied to find Mavis and ask Mavis where he could buy good horses.

"You just said that I like horses very much. It is my dream to own a great horse. If he is smart enough, he should know how to do it."

The two Unsullied took the order and left.

A good horse would allow Jack to quickly escape to the sea when faced with a siege.

At the same time, Jack was also testing Mavis to see if Mavis really wanted something from him.

If Mavis just told where to buy horses, it meant that Mavis was simply interested in the young dragon, and Jack would have to return to the Poseidon as soon as possible.

And if Mabius directly sends a good horse, it means that Mabius has something to ask of him.

Jack sent three more Unsullied people in disguise and went out to understand the current situation in Qarth.

After the arrangements were made, Jack began to train Colakxiu again.

Placing a piece of raw meat that he had brought with him in front of Colachu, Jack whispered: "Dracarys!"

dracarys, meaning dragon flame.

Daenerys uses this to command her dragon to breathe out dragon flames, and Jack can just use it, which is really convenient.

"His--" Scarlet red mixed with some black dragon flames spurted out from Colakxiu's mouth.

Different dragons will spray different colors of dragon flames.

The color of dragon flames is generally black, with Viserion's being a light golden color with hints of red and orange.

Lei Ge's Dragon Flame is orange with a slight green texture.

And Drogon's dragon flame was as black as scales.

In just two seconds, the raw meat was burnt black. Korakhu swallowed the burnt meat and looked at Jack expectantly.

However, Jack did not give Korakhu any more food, but directly ordered: "Dragon flame!"

Korakhu looked at Jack in confusion, as if asking: Where is my food?

Jack didn't waste any words, took off his shoes directly, and slapped it with the sole of his shoe.

Regardless of Korakhu who was beaten dizzy, Jack shouted the order again: "Dragon flame!"

Although Korakhu was a little dizzy this time, he still opened his mouth and spit out dragon flame.

Jack immediately took out a piece of roasted meat and fed it to Korakhu, praising him: "Good boy, very good."

The intelligence of dragons is not low, but it is definitely not high.

An adult dragon has the intelligence of a teenager, but unlike a child, a dragon is more powerful and more brutal.

In the final analysis, the dragons in the world of Game of Thrones are more like beasts.

There is a big difference between dragons and humans or dragons that speak human language in myths and legends.

So Jack thinks that dragon training is very important, and obedience training must be started when the dragon is young.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to train absolute obedience when it grows up.

As for the Dragon Mother and Drogon in the later part of the TV series, it is actually more like a mother-son relationship rather than a superior-subordinate concept.

And the first step for Jack to train the dragon is the command.

Important and serious commands are repeated only once.

And if there is no response the first time, action must be taken, sticks or food rewards, or both.

Otherwise, if a command is repeated seven or eight times, the majesty of the command or Jack himself will be greatly reduced.

Once Korakxiu has his own ideas later, he will execute his own ideas without listening to orders.

So Korakxiu must be made accustomed to it, so that it knows that listening to oneself is good and necessary.
