Game of Thrones: Lord of the Deep

In the evening, the blood-red setting sun enveloped the free city-state of Meereen, and both sides of the city's avenues were full of free people returning home from get off work.

Suddenly, a commotion was heard, and many onlookers looked in the direction of the sound.

It turned out that Barristan had returned with the "Lazar exchange student".

A few days ago, Dany had released the news that she would form a 50-member knight group.

Excluding the 20 Lazar exchange students, there were 30 places left to be selected from the civilians and nobles of Meereen, and everyone under the age of 18 could participate in the selection.

At that time, some neutral Meereen nobles sent all their second sons over, and even more free people participated in the selection.

In the end, the selection results came out, and only six free people were selected, and the remaining 24 places were all for nobles.

This incident also caused a lot of discussion among the free people at the time, wondering if there was any shady deal.

But the fact is that the physique of the noble boys is better than that of the free people, and they are well-nourished and do not lack the most basic education.

Giving twenty places to the Lazars at that time also caused dissatisfaction among some nobles and civilians.

Many nobles whose second sons were not selected believed that the lowly Lazars were not worthy of the opportunity to be knighted by Her Majesty the Queen herself.

So the twenty Lazar boys attracted a crowd of onlookers as soon as they entered the city, wanting to see if these Lazars had three heads and six arms and could directly get twenty places!

The Lazars finally got this opportunity, so they naturally sent out the twenty most outstanding boys.

Borhaci looked at this group of excited passers-by and couldn't help but curiously asked Barristan if they were too popular.

Barristan raised his eyebrows. He had never seen such a confident Lazar. In his impression, Lazars were all submissive.

"Of course not, they want to hit you. If they hadn't considered that they would be fined by the Ministry of Health established by the Prime Minister's Tower for littering, they would have thrown rotten leaves and feces long ago."

Borhaci was stunned and puzzled.

"Sir, may I ask why they are so hostile to us? Didn't Her Majesty form an alliance with our Laza tribe?"

Barristan was in a good mood, so he explained: "It is precisely because of the alliance that His Majesty showed great sincerity and gave you Laza people 20 places."

Seeing that Borhaci was still smart, Barristan gave him more advice:

"Don't think that you are just the most basic knights, but the significance here is very important.

Once you have made great contributions in the process of liberating the entire Slave Bay, His Majesty will naturally confer the title.

In other words, you are the candidates for the future dukes, marquises, and earls of Slave Bay."

Borhaci's eyes flashed a gleam.

He is 18 years old this year. In this short 18-year career, the town built by his family has suffered hundreds of attacks.

Every time the town just had some savings, the horsemen would come to plunder, the livestock were swept away, and the people were sold to slave owners like livestock.

When he was nine years old, a Dothraki broke into his room, but he was attacked with a dagger and died on the spot.

From that day on, he understood that centaurs would also die. Centaurs were not invincible demons. They would also die if their throats were pierced by a dagger!

So Borhaci was determined to change the situation of the Laza people. He believed that if this continued, the Laza people would sooner or later be wiped out by other races.

In the following nine years, he kept persuading his father to rise up in resistance.

But his father always said that for the survival and continuation of the tribe, he must not resist.

Just when Borhaci was about to accept his fate, Daenerys's messenger arrived.

The messenger said that the Dragon Queen was willing to form an alliance with the Laza people and send the Unsullied to provide shelter for the Laza people's town.

At that time, Borhaci was ecstatic. With the protection of the Unsullied, he would not be afraid of the looting of the centaurs.

But later, Borhaci discovered that the Dragon Queen's Unsullied only provided shelter for towns, and many small tribes did not have the strength to build towns, so they could only continue to endure looting.

Until some time ago, the Dragon Queen was going to select 20 people from the Laza people to be enthroned as knights and teach them how to lead troops in battle and govern the country.

So the 20 strongest Laza tribes all sent their best second sons to Meereen.

Borhaci even gave up the right to inherit the tribe and volunteered.

Although the Laza people are gentle, even cowardly, they are not stupid and naturally have their own thoughts.

The population of the Laza people has dropped from more than 10 million at the beginning to less than 2 million now.

The five largest tribes understand that if they continue like this, the race may really perish.

And if you want the race to be immortal, there are only two ways, find someone to rely on or resist yourself.

It is not realistic to seek shelter from others, because this will offend the fierce Dothraki people, or even the Gis people in the Slaver Bay.

If they rose up to resist, no one would be willing to form an alliance with the cowardly Laza people.

Just when the Laza people's top leaders were thinking hard, a dragon queen who liberated slaves suddenly rose in the Slave Bay.

What made the Laza people even more ecstatic was that when they were still hesitating whether the Mother of Dragons was willing to form an alliance with the Laza people, the other party's envoys had already arrived at the Laza Plain.

And the conditions given were very sincere.

Not only did they have the protection of the Unsullied, but they were also willing to purchase food at a high price, and finally promised to help the Laza people build cities in the future.

So the Laza people also showed their sincerity.

That is to lower the price of food.

If the Laza people have anything to offer, it must be food.

The centaurs are not good at cooking carbohydrate staples, so they are more likely to plunder livestock and people, so the Laza people still have a lot of food.

Borhaci clenched his fists and made up his mind that he must become the greatest duke. When he is strong enough, he must kill all the Dothraki and destroy the country and the race!

Barristan did not see the change in Borhaci's expression, and was still talking about the etiquette that he needed to pay attention to when he met His Majesty later.

Soon Barristan brought everyone to the True Dragon Pyramid.

Borhaci looked at the current True Dragon Pyramid with a shocked face.

A black dragon was carved on the entrance gate, and the three big characters "True Dragon Hall" were cast in gold above it.

Borhaci had seen the Great Pyramid when he followed his father to sell grain. At this time, the bronze statue of the harpy above the pyramid was replaced by a dragon statue.

And not only on the top of the pyramid, almost all the portraits and sculptures of the Sons of the Harpy in Meereen have been replaced with black dragons.

Barristan looked at the twenty people behind him, and after reminding them again not to offend Her Majesty the Queen, he led a few people into the Hall of the Dragon.
