Start with the Lord of the Rings

The night was dark.

On the dark and calm sea.

A large masted ship with faint lights was quietly driving on the vast and boundless Blackwater Bay.

"Whoa."

Outside the window, the waves beat against the side of the boat, making a rhythmic sound.

Morgan lay on the bed by the window.

Listening to the sound of the waves coming from the window.

The slightly impetuous heart gradually calmed down.

Looking at the slightly narrow solid wood ceiling overhead.

Morgan was quietly reviewing his journey to Westeros for the past six months.

More than half a year ago, through the few memories in my mind.

Morgan, who came to the North, found Winterfell and joined the Stark family, the guardian of the North.

In Winterfell for nearly a month.

He successfully won the trust of Eddard Stark and his wife, Duke of Winterfell, and thus obtained the qualification to go to King's Landing.

Then, it took more than three months for Eddard Stark to follow the king and queen's convoy south to King's Landing.

Funny to say, these three months were actually longer than the time he spent in Winterfell and the previous King's Landing combined.

But no way.

Such are the times.

Whether it is in the last Middle-earth world, or the world under my feet now.

Long-distance travel is so time-consuming.

For example, right now, Morgan is going to the next target: "Astabo" located in the "Essos Continent" Slave Bay across the sea from the Westeros Continent.

For Morgan to reach "Astapor", I am afraid that it will be longer, farther, and more time-consuming than the longest journey he has ever experienced, including the journey in the last Middle-earth.

But it has been a long time since I came to another world.

Morgan was used to it.

The time spent on the journey always seems to be longer.

Like it took him three months to travel from Winterfell to King's Landing.

This time, he also only stayed in Jun's Landing for more than a month.

But this one takes more time.

But it was the most exciting month for Morgan to come to this world.

The most exciting reason is naturally because of the competition, he won the unprecedented "triple crown" in the competition.

This allowed him to really experience what it's like to be an idol.

Of course, the thrill of falling asleep to the current king and queen of the Seven Kingdoms is also part of it.

It's a pity, if it wasn't for the fear of being forced by Daenerys Targaryen to board Astapor's "Unsullied" army, and Queen Cersei Lannister's persecution.

Morgan planned to live in King's Landing for a while.

After all, in the past few days in Jun's Landing, it was the most arbitrary period of time he had ever come to another world.

"Whoa."

The waves continued to beat on the sides of the boat.

Morgan sighed with emotion after reviewing his experience since this time.

He quickly calmed down.

He can distinguish between what is business and what is enjoyment.

Thinking of this, my mind moved slightly.

"Brush brush"

One after another pale white virtual data began to jump and flicker in front of him.

【Time Traveler: Morgan】

【Race: Human】

[Biological Level: Second-Order]

【Soul Power: 1】

[Attributes: Strength LV7; Constitution LV8; Agility LV6; Spirit LV6]

[Ability: Common Language; Muay Thai LV2; White Crow Swordsmanship (Proficient) LV4; Archery (Proficient) LV4; Rock Body (Special Technique); Dragon Power (Special Technique); Charge (Special Technique); Spiritual Shock (Special Technique) Skill); Eagle Eye (Special Skill); Quick Flash (Special Skill); Any Door (Special Skill)]

[Talent: Intimacy (Special Skill)]

[Current world exploration progress: 0.93%]

【.】

The pale white dummy data flashes continuously.

Morgan looked calm in his eyes.

since coming to this world.

The intervals between his summoning of the time traveler system are far less frequent than in Middle-earth.

Because there is no killing, it is difficult to obtain soul power.

With his current strength, unless he can kill individual creatures of the same level or even more powerful, or hunt down large-scale weak creatures, it will be even more difficult to obtain soul power.

The world beneath your feet.

Morgan thought about it carefully. Perhaps the only ones who can be stronger than him are Daenerys Targaryen's future giant dragons.

If he kills those dragons, he should be able to gain some soul power.

As for the other method, it is only to participate in the war.

Just with his current strength, with the general strength of those warrior mercenaries in this world.

Morgan reckoned that if he personally killed three or four hundred people, he should be able to gain a little bit of soul power.

Three or four hundred heads can be exchanged for a little soul power.

Such a ratio makes Morgan somewhat powerless.

This is also the reason why he does not expect to acquire soul power in this world.

"Brush brush"

[Biological Level: Second-Order]

【Soul Power: 1】

【Attributes:】

The virtual data kept jumping, and the soul power bar quickly appeared in front of him.

Looking at the unchanging soul power bar.

Morgan's expression was calm. In the past few days, apart from killing the "Magic Mountain" Gregor Clegane, whose strength was equal to that of an ordinary troll, he had no other soul power to gain.

It is not surprising that the soul power bar remains unchanged.

Read on.

It didn't take long.

When seeing the progress behind the world exploration progress bar.

Morgan's eyes finally flickered.

【0.93%】

Compared to his last time before the Tournament, the exploration progress increased by 0.18%.

Compared with before, an increase of 0.18% in just four or five days is actually not a small amount.

But if one considers that Morgan won the unprecedented "Triple Crown" in the competition, and the dragon eggs he grabbed from the Black Forest Chamber of Commerce, etc., he killed "Magic Mountain" on the street. It seems that there are several things.

Just a little less.

At least less than he expected.

However, although Morgan did not complain much about his system, he was stingy with Grandet.

But he still believes in the calculation method of the system.

After all, the system is Party A and the father.

He estimated that there were errors and mistakes in the guesses, and it could only be that his understanding of the system was not enough.

Can't blame dad.

"0.93%"

"I don't know when it will be 1%"

"Astapor in Slaver's Bay, you should be able to get it after buying the "Unsullied"."

"Or, if you can hatch the dragon egg on your body, it should be fine."

"If you achieve a 1% achievement, what will be the reward this time. Is it a physical treasure like the Dimensional Ring, or a powerful special skill like "Any Door", or other rewards?"

"."

Looking at the data column in front of him, Morgan secretly guessed again.

"Whoa."

The sound of waves outside the window continued.

The night was getting darker.

This trip to Astapor in Slaver's Bay was a long way off.

Morgan was ready for a long journey.

in the next time.

In addition to eating and drinking, Morgan watched the sea every day on this big mast ship.

Watch from the side of the ship, from the window in bed, and sometimes even climb the high mast in the dead of night.

Travelling for a long time is very boring.

Morgan could stand loneliness.

But it doesn't mean that everyone on board can endure loneliness.

Less than a week.

An average-looking, but plump lady took a fancy to Morgan and found her.

It's just that Morgan, whose appetite has been raised for a long time, can't look at such a woman.

Even the ugly woman on the boat is coveted by other sullen men.

Morgan unceremoniously rejected the lady.

The lady was very angry when she was rejected.

However, the several attendants who followed behind the lady did not dare to say anything at all in the presence of Morgan.

The first boat ride in this world, except for this little episode.

Morgan didn't get to encounter other interesting things like pirates.

In this way, a month passed quietly.

Morgan also arrives at his first stop on Aposta's journey to Slaver's Bay: Pentos.

Pantos: One of the nine major trading city-states, located in the western part of Essos continent, on the edge of the narrow sea, and facing the Seven Kingdoms at a distance, is the closest free trade city-state to King's Landing.

Because Aposta from Slaver's Bay is too far away by sea.

The fastest route to Aposta is to take the city-states of Pentos, the city-states of Norvos, and then along the edge of the vast grasslands of the Dothraki Sea to Slaver's Bay.

This is also Morgan's route in King's Landing.

Looking at the huge city standing by the sea at the end of the line of sight.

Standing on the bow, Morgan suddenly remembered the news about Daenerys Targaryen that he had bought in the underground black market of King's Landing.

One of them is that Daenerys seems to have married Khal Drogo, the greatest lord of the Dothraki, in this city.

at this time.

Suddenly, a loud voice came from behind.

"The city you see ahead is our destination this time, the most prosperous free city-state Pantos."

"Guests, bring your own things."

"We are the passenger ship "The Wind", and the next time to leave Pantos will be seven days later."

"Guests who want to go to King's Landing can remember our departure time."

"Finally, Captain Bobota wishes you a great time."

The captain's voice fell.

The guests on the deck began to make a loud noise.

The guests who were still in their respective rooms immediately ran out of the cabin.

I felt the excitement of the crowd coming from behind.

Morgan understands.

After all, in such a world, there are many people who have never left a village in their entire lives.

What's more, it has crossed the narrow sea, from the Westeros continent where the Seven Kingdoms are located, to the other continent of Essos, and came to a free trade city-state that is different from the Seven Kingdoms in many ways.

Those with a similar experience, when they are old, can spend the rest of their lives in the tavern.

After half an hour.

The mast passenger ship arrives at the Pantos city-state pier.

Morgan stepped onto the dock.

Followed by a large stream of people lined up to enter the city gate of Pantos.

Walking on the street, seeing a large number of circular square brick tower buildings on both sides of the street, as well as a large number of red temples and other buildings, you know that the architectural style of this city is significantly different from the traditional Junlin City buildings.

Morgan didn't plan to stay in Pentos long this time.

It's still too far from Astapor. He didn't know the exact time when Daenerys Targaryen went to Astapor, so he had to get there as soon as possible.

The month-long sea voyage left Morgan consuming more food and drink than ever before.

Most of the supplies prepared in King's Landing were consumed.

He needs to replenish food and drinks, and a mount to travel.

Because the horses can't get on the boat.

Morgan did not abandon his beloved horse "Radish", but gave it to his little lover Diana in King's Landing to keep it for him.

After finding a tavern in the city.

Morgan did not choose to buy horses directly from the tavern this time, but set off on his own to the shop specializing in selling horses in Pantos.

He had inquired and knew that the weather in Essos continent was good this season.

If it goes well.

The next journey to Astapor should be around three months.

For such a long period of time, it was absolutely painful to ride on a horse all the time.

Therefore, he is going to buy a complete set of carriage equipment.

And it's not the single-seater carriage it once was.

This time he wants to buy a large two-seater carriage.

With huge sums of money, of course, you have to enjoy it, and you can't wrong yourself.

This is what Morgan realized some time ago in King's Landing.

It's been a long time since I came to another world.

Morgan is now familiar with horses.

It didn't take long for him to choose two good horses.

To avoid accidents on the way.

The horse he chose was one that could pull a cart when put on a shackle, and a war horse when it was taken off.

Although the price is a lot more expensive than the average horse.

But the little money Morgan didn't care.

Buy two horses and a nice, spacious two-seater carriage.

Morgan continued to wander the streets of Pentos with his carriage.

When passing a wide square on the way back to the tavern.

He suddenly saw a high platform built in the center of the square.

On the high platform stood a dozen or twenty short, thin boys and girls with chains around their hands and necks, as well as a bloated middle-aged man with a well-dressed body and a pot belly, who were not saying anything.

Below the high platform, a large circle of people was densely surrounded.

"This is an auction of slaves?"

The first time I saw such a picture, this thought immediately flashed through Morgan's mind.

In Westeros, whether in Winterfell in the north or King's Landing in the capital of the Seven Kingdoms, buying and selling slaves is not allowed.

But in a free city-state like Pentos.

Slavery is also not allowed, but there is no strong legal code and military repression.

In many cases, for anything involving a large amount of money, the legal provisions are easy to be exploited and appear in name only.

Just like the present Pentos, although slavery is not allowed, this does not prevent some wealthy citizens from keeping slaves.

There are tens of thousands of "free slaves" in this city-state.

These free slaves were completely indistinguishable from slaves except that they were called to be legally different from slaves.

Of course, Morgan doesn't know that.

The first time I saw a slave auction site.

Morgan naturally wanted to come up and take a look.

Drive to the bottom of the high platform.

Morgan stood on the edge and listened to the fat man above and quickly understood.

As he thought, it was the auction venue for slaves, and it was also the auction venue for juvenile slaves.

different from adult slaves.

The price of juvenile slaves was significantly lower.

But female slaves are the exact opposite.

Minor female slaves are more expensive.

The reasons are well known.

In front of him, among the twenty-two underage slaves, there are seventeen boys and five girls.

And listened to the noisy speeches of most of the onlookers at the scene.

Morgan heard that most of the men were coming for the five slave girls.
