Game of Thrones: The Red Dragon Lord

Simply increasing the energy used by Blazing Shadow would consume all the dragon bones he obtained from one expedition. Unless he ventures to Valyria again, it may be difficult to achieve.

At this time, the wind and waves on the sea became more and more turbulent, and the Belleris rocked violently in the waves. Gavin held on to the side of the ship tightly, trying to maintain his balance. Then he released Blazing Shadow, letting it soar in the air, and he hurried back to the room.

A month later, at dusk, the fleet finally arrived in Braavos.

Braavos is located at the northwest tip of the Essos continent and consists of hundreds of islands. It is located at the intersection of the Narrow Sea and the Shivering Sea.

Behind the city is a continent full of swamps, surrounded by mountain-shaped islands. There is only one natural gorge that can accommodate the entry and exit of ocean-going merchant ships. The people of Braavos built a magnificent statue - the Titan - at this entrance.

As the fleet gradually approached Braavos and the statue of the Titan was clearly visible, Gavin welcomed the envoy of the Sea King who came to greet him. The other party boarded the Belleris in a small boat.

After the messenger saw Gavin, he bowed and said: "Welcome, Sir Gavin. I am Tyron Rayyan, and I have been ordered by His Highness the Sea King to welcome you."

Looking at the rather fat envoy of the Sea King, Gavin smiled and said: "Envoy Tyrant, you are too polite. I should be grateful to His Highness the Sea King for his invitation, which gave me the opportunity to appreciate the scenery of Braavos."

Tyron Leyan smiled slightly and said: "Sir Gavin, His Royal Highness the Sea King has prepared a pleasant seaside mansion for you, and will hold a banquet to welcome you tomorrow. The port has also been prepared for your fleet and soldiers Prepare your berth, food and accommodation, and when you get ashore later, I will lead you to your villa to rest.”

After hearing this, Gavin responded: "Thank you His Highness the Sea King for your careful arrangements. I will have special envoy Lau for you later."

Tyron Leyan first looked around, and then asked with a little doubt: "Sir Gavin, may I ask, I heard that you are bringing your dragon with you this time? Why haven't I seen it?"

Gavin immediately replied: "The Blazing Shadow flew to the sea to look for food. Furthermore, if it flew in the sky of Braavos, it would inevitably disturb the people in the city, so I did not let it get close."

After hearing this, Tyron Reyyan said: "On behalf of the people of Braavos, I would like to thank Sir Gavin for your kindness. But there is no need to worry about disturbing the people. I am afraid they have long been eager to see the true face of the dragon. , even His Highness the Sea King and I are very curious about the magic dragon."

Gavin smiled and politely declined: "I'm afraid that's not possible right now. Chiying won't be able to fly back for a while. I'm sorry that I can't satisfy your curiosity immediately. After it flies back, I'll let you and His Highness the Sea King watch it."

Gavin stood on the deck of the Belleris, looking up at the statue hundreds of meters high, and was shocked in his heart. He couldn't help but secretly speculate on how this colossus was built.

Tyron Leyan, who was on the side, immediately introduced to Gavin: "The Titan statue was built by the fugitive slaves who first came here. At that time, they arrived at this remote and rarely visited place under the leadership of the Moonsinger. It took a lot of time and energy to build this Titan statue with the help of materials from this place."

After hearing this, Gavin asked: "I heard that this statue can make sounds?"

After hearing this, Tyron Leyan showed a proud look on his face and explained: "It can indeed make a sound. It is not only a statue, but also a perfect defensive fortress. It is located next to the battle fortress, serving as a warning and It protects the peace of our city by resisting foreign enemies. Whenever an enemy ship approaches, the Titan will roar to warn us of the enemy's approach."

Hearing Tyron Leyan's explanation, Gavin nodded slightly and said no more, but secretly guessed in his heart that perhaps the statue's function was not only to warn and defend against enemies from the sea, but its main function might be to defend against dragons in the air. After all, Braavos was built by slaves who escaped from Valyrian slavery. They were worried about being captured by the Valyrian Dragon King, so they went to such trouble to build these defense facilities.

The fleet slowly sailed in from under the Titan. After entering the natural gorge, Gavin saw battle fortresses and huge docks on both sides. Countless trebuchets and ballistae were scattered on the cliff tops on both sides. , countless purple warships also docked here.

Gavin had heard from Hassan that slaves who escaped from slavery in Valyria came here and discovered sea snails that could be made into dark purple dye. In order to change the appearance of the stolen ships, they were dyed purple. This custom continued later, and the entire Braavos fleet was dyed purple, so it was also called the Purple Fleet.

As the Belerys slowly docked, Gavin stepped onto the bustling docks of Braavos. Braavos is the most prosperous and powerful existence among the Free Trade City-states, and its most important dock is naturally extremely prosperous.

The Old Clothes Dealer's Wharf to the west is crowded with ships from all over the world, with colorful sails fluttering in the wind. Merchant ships from Qarth and the Summer Isles, voyagers from Asshai and the Jade Sea Isles, and ships of all sizes and shapes gathered here.

On the pier, there was a steady flow of people, busy but orderly. Sea King's customs officials carefully inspected the cargo hold of each ship at Fangge Wharf, carefully recording the type and quantity of goods.

Under the guidance of Tyron Rayyan, Gavin sat on the wheel palace prepared for him by Neptune.

The Wheel Palace drove smoothly through the streets of Braavos, with Gavin's Blood Dragon Guard and nearly a hundred guards following closely behind.

Through the car window, Gavin admired the unique urban landscape of Braavos, passing many stone arch bridges used to connect the islands, and also saw the sweet water channel used to bring fresh water from the mainland.

In the Wheel Palace, Tyron Rayyan broke the silence and said respectfully to Gavin: "Sir Gavin, two more of your tribe will be coming to the banquet tomorrow."

Gavin looked confused: "Clansman?"

Tyron Reyan quickly explained: "They are the exiled brother and sister of the Targaryen family."

Seeing that Gavin still showed doubts, Tyron Reyyan then asked tentatively: "Isn't Sir Gavin's ability to control dragons derived from Targaryen?"

Gavin smiled slightly and understood that this was probably what Neptune wanted to find out, so he explained bluntly: "There used to be 40 dragon king families in Valyria. Targaryens are not the only ones who can control dragons. My dragon control bloodline comes from Other Dragon King families.”

After hearing this, Tyron Leyan hurriedly said: "I see, then I will let the brother and sister go tomorrow."
