Game of Thrones Overlord Conquest

At the same time as the Holy City meeting was being held, on the north side of the Ghiscari Hills in Slaver's Bay, several men in cloaks were walking beside the winding Worm River at night.

They set out from Astapor, followed the flow of the river, and headed towards the Eastern Mountains. In order to avoid the wandering scouts, they did not dare to ride horses and could only choose to walk.

Slowly, as time passed, their pace also slowed down, and their physical fatigue made them feel that the air here was not suitable for breathing.

Finally they stopped, and one of the men in a black cloak panted:

"We can't keep going like this, I need to rest."

"At least drink some water first, I'm dying of thirst!" As he said that, he took off the water bag hanging from his waist and drank several sips in a row.

Another man in a brown cloak hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, took the water bag in his hand, and signaled everyone to drink water in small sips to save the insufficient water source.

Seeing this, the others followed suit and drank sips. Water is the source of life. It not only made them no longer thirsty, but also seemed to bring them new strength.

Although they were standing next to the Worm River, and the water was very clear and cold, they did not dare to drink it directly with their hands. The most common symptom after drinking the raw water in the river was unexplained repeated strangulation around the navel. pain.

After drinking the water, everyone carefully screwed on the water bag, sat by the river and slapped their legs hard to release the pain in their muscles, while looking at the quiet and empty surroundings. ׺°”˜˜`”°º×

The river is like a silver ribbon with no end in sight, winding around the earth. It seems that every end it extends is so boundless.

"I guess you haven't lost your way yet, right?" The man in black cloak said and lay down with his head on a rotten dead tree.

His High Valyrian pronunciation, except for the slight lack of some local lingo and dialect words, is basically the same as others. It is all mixed with a thick voice like a growl.

"As long as we follow this river, we can go all the way to the Ghiscari Mountains." someone replied in a low voice.

"That's no problem. At least I can still walk."

The man in the black cloak took off the hood that obscured his face, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice:

"The air here makes me very uncomfortable. It seems oppressive and stagnant."

"I don't know how. It reminds me of the Dothraki Temple of the Prophet. I was imprisoned there for a while. It was a big place, but it was dark and dreary. The sun never shined. Looking in, it looks like the base camp of some dark demon."

"You can't imagine that many women have lived there for a long time, but it's impossible for me to stay there for a while."

Yes, this person is Bono, the intelligence officer appointed by Mongo himself. He has lived up to the expectations of the great Kaa, is very good at disguise, and is suitable for participating in intelligence work.

He carefully observed the habits and customs of the Gith people, and did not hesitate to cut off the braids that the Dothraki regarded as life, dyed their hair into dark red, the most common color in the area, and used a comb and wax to comb them into horns. shape.

Then, he began to work hard to practice High Valyrian, correct his accent, and insisted on being exposed to the scorching sun every day. You know, if there is no cover, the Gith only dare to go out at sunset.

His bronze skin soon darkened to a darker color, making him almost the same as those of the lower-class half-breed Gith.

He becomes Essos's greatest dramatist, a true Gith.

Bono had high demands on himself and was even more ruthless towards his enemies. He did some great things in Slaver's Bay.

At that time, the Astapor slave rebellion had been defeated by Yunkai, and Meereen took in many Astapor refugees out of alliance.

These people are all free people, but the temporary refugee camp is guarded by a city defense army composed of slaves. Due to the gap in status and frequent food theft, there are many conflicts between the two sides.

During a city-wide religious celebration, Bono bribed the city defense officer and easily led people into the refugee camp. Taking advantage of the empty guards, he dressed up as a slave swordsman and carried out a massacre, claiming that this was to save money for active preparations for war. food.

This provocation successfully caused a chaos in the city, resulting in numerous casualties. For this reason, the Meereen slave owners had to recall the elite spearmen who were heading to Astapor to quell the chaos.

After the turmoil ended, Bono left Meereen calmly and continued towards Astapor. It was at that time that he met his companions.

These people are also slave rebels, but they are followers of another leader "George". They are the dead in the Battle of the Worm River and the Avengers who crawled out of the River Styx.

——

There was deathly silence by the river. Bono's words caused everyone to be silent. Every slave seemed to have a painful past that was unbearable to look back on.

Seeing that no one was talking to him, he looked at the man in brown cloak who was counting the dry food in the package and asked:

"I can't imagine what the Ghiscari Mountains we are about to look like. I guess there won't be anything to eat for dozens of miles. Do we still have enough dry food?"

"It's not enough." The man in the brown cloak looked at the remaining dry food with great regret and replied:

"These were probably only enough to last for half a day, and then there was nothing left. We failed to assassinate the butcher, and when we escaped, each of us only had a few pieces of wheat cake with us, and everything else was left behind."

He took out a few complete pieces of dry food and distributed them to everyone, leaving only some fragments for himself. When he walked to Bono, he handed out the wheat cakes and responded to what he had just said:

"The cabins of slave ships, the iron cages of the Colosseum, and the refugee camps suffering from the plague. I think no matter where they are, they are more unbearable than the place you mentioned."

"Well, we'd better decide where to go first." Bono reached out to take the wheat cake and changed the subject with an embarrassed look on his face: "It's already very bright."

At this moment, they suddenly discovered a golden light appearing on the top of the distant mountain range. It was the sunlight waking up after a night of sleep.

The man in the brown cloak took off his hood, revealing the red and black hair unique to the Gith. He covered his eyes with his hands, looked toward the east, and said:

"We go straight in the direction where the sun rises. Maybe when it climbs into the sky, we can enter the Ghiscari Mountains."

After the team set off, Bono discovered that the place was actually much farther than he imagined. The terrain continued to rise and there were more and more rocks on the surface.

As they moved forward, the sky became brighter and brighter, and soon they saw a stone wall appearing in front of them. This was an extension of the mountains in the distance. The reddish-brown stone surface was bare, without any sign of plants or traces of ancient times. The remnants of life.

There is a series of similar terraces on the rock wall. Judging from its rugged shape, it is probably a natural wonder formed by rock cracks or rain erosion.

Further above it, there is an open space with nothing on it, only a few weeds growing on it, and a crooked old tree trunk remaining there, which looks like a man stretching in the sun. Old woman.

"Let's go up!" The man in brown cloak said happily: "Astapo is just a gathering place for a group of betrayers. This is the real location of the slave rebel army."
