Game of Thrones: The Red Dragon Lord

Chapter 87 How to hatch dragon eggs

Daenerys thought about it carefully and said: "Viserys told me some stories about families hatching dragon eggs. There seems to be no specific hatching method. The Targaryen family will place dragon eggs in the cradle of newborns. , if you are lucky, you can hatch it, and it is also possible to hatch the dragon egg in a high temperature environment. After the Dance of the Blood Dragon, no more dragon eggs were hatched successfully. Later, the Targaryens tried countless methods. There were wizards and even a king was burned to death.”

"The tragedy of Summer Hall?" Gavin interrupted immediately.

Daenerys nodded, "Yes, Viserys told me that the then King Aegon V prepared seven dragon eggs and tried to use wildfire to hatch the dragon eggs in Summer Hall. However, the wildfire spread out of control. King Aegon V, his eldest son and many members of the royal family were killed in this disaster, and the dragon eggs disappeared without a trace."

Speaking of this, Daenerys also suddenly realized the difficulty of hatching dragon eggs, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Gavin fell into deep thought, "It seems that the method of hatching dragon eggs mastered by the Targaryen family is not complete, and it is all a matter of luck." He couldn't help but recall the records in the Dragon Lair of Belerys.

According to the stone tablet in the Dragon Cave, in addition to the natural hatching of dragon eggs, as long as the dragon eggs still contain vitality, they can be forcibly hatched by burning with dragon flames. The ceremony does not require the sacrifice of life. The key is The blood of the Unburnt is needed. Dip the dragon egg into a container filled with the blood of the Unburnt, and continue burning it with dragon flame. The blood of the Unburnt can effectively prevent the dragon egg from being destroyed by the dragon flame, and can also absorb the magic power contained in the dragon flame.

Gavin raised his head and looked at Daenerys, comforting: "Don't worry, the Belerys family has a method, we can try it."

Daenerys immediately became excited: "Really? Can we try it now?"

Gavin smiled after hearing this and said: "It's not possible now. The containers needed for the ceremony must be made of dragon crystal. Although there are some on the ship, they are all scattered dragon crystal mines. We need to go ashore first and make the containers with dragon flames. Then the ceremony of hatching the dragon eggs will be held.”

Daenerys suppressed her excitement, nodded and said, "Okay, Gavin, let's wait."

At this time, the fleet arrived at the intersection of the Strait and the Shivering Sea. I saw rough waves, the waves collided with each other, and splashed layers of white foam.

The strong wind roared on the sea, causing huge waves. The sky is covered with dark clouds and the thunder is faint, as if the sea is venting its violence and mystery.

Gavin plans to go to Skane Island first and try to hatch dragon eggs there.

Skane Island is a small island located in the north, located northwest of Skagos Island, and its latitude is further north than the Great Wall.

The Skane people on the island had been raided, killed or devoured by the Skagos long ago, as the island is almost uninhabited and is only a short distance from the Hardhome market at Stodd's Head. It’s a half-day flight, which makes it convenient for Gavin to use it as a stopover.

At the same time on Bloodstone Island, a ship flying the flag of the Crowned Stag finally arrived at the port of Bloodstone Island after more than a month of sailing.

As Petyr's ship docked slowly, Boris, who had received the news, had already led everyone to greet him respectfully.

Petyr walked down the side of the ship gracefully, and Boris immediately stepped forward to greet him, saying with a smile: "Dear Lord Petyr, welcome to Bloodstone Island again. I heard that you have just assumed the post of Minister of Finance, and I really feel for you. Delighted! I wonder what your instructions are for coming here?”

Petyr bowed slightly and replied politely: "Thanks to the appreciation of His Majesty the King and the Prime Minister, I have this opportunity. Governor Boris, I am here to convey relevant instructions under the order of the Royal Council."

Governor Boris looked stunned and said quickly: "Sir, please make it clear."

Petyr took out a roll of extremely delicate parchment tied with gold thread and handed it to Boris, and then said solemnly: "From now on, the Stepstone Islands will set up tax officers according to the model of the five major ports in Westeros. System, the taxes here are collected by the tax officer I brought, and after annual statistics, they are distributed to Sir Gavin according to the corresponding proportion. "

Governor Boris looked embarrassed and hurriedly explained: "Sir Petyr, Lord Gavin is not in the territory now. I am only the governor of Bloodstone Island and I really have no right to make a decision on this."

Petyr shook his head slightly and said harmoniously: "Governor Boris, this is an order from the Royal Council and cannot be refused."

Governor Boris frowned and thought for a moment before saying: "Sir, in this case, it will be as you say. Your tax officer can collect taxes here, but my people must follow the supervision. In addition, all taxes collected are the same." It cannot be transported away from Bloodstone Island, and the final decision must be made after Lord Gavin returns."

Petyr nodded, still maintaining a gentle tone: "That'll be it for now. Thank you Governor Boris for your cooperation."

Petyr paused and then said: "There is one more thing. According to the laws of the kingdom, the Stepstone Islands are prohibited from purchasing slaves. Governor, please pay attention to this matter."

Boris frowned and responded: "Sir, I have taken note of this matter, but how to implement it will have to wait until Sir Gavin comes back to discuss it."

Petyr looked serious: "That is natural, but before Sir Gavin returns, no more ships transporting slaves must enter the Stepstone Islands."

After Boris settled Petyr, he hurried back to his official residence.

He looked solemn and immediately called his men.

"Go, send someone to keep an eye on all the people who just got off the ship. Don't let go of any of their actions. Report any abnormalities to me immediately. In addition, send someone to quickly call back Commander Hassan who is cruising near Grey Gallows Island. Don't make any mistakes!" Boris ordered sternly.

The men responded in unison and quickly turned to execute the order.

After more than ten days of sailing, the fleet finally arrived at Skagen Island. The island looks desolate and lonely, with rugged rocks and sparse vegetation. The cold wind whistled past, freezing cold, as if it could penetrate the bone marrow.

The two warships put down the boats full of soldiers, and they carefully stepped onto this strange land for advance reconnaissance.

Gavin was not idle either. He summoned the Blazing Shadow, took the dragon crystal prepared in advance, and rode the Blazing Shadow with Daenerys to fly to the island.

Looking down from the air, the scene on the island is clearer. Large areas of rocks are exposed, and only a small number of cold-resistant plants grow hard in the cold wind. The tops of the distant mountains were even covered with white snow, looking cold and majestic under the gloomy sky.

Gavin and Daenerys were on the back of the dragon Blazing Shadow, feeling the biting cold wind, and flew towards a cliff by the sea.
