Chapter 290 Bear Island

"Hand Custer over to the white ghost... Hahaha, Mance, do you really believe the story that little guy made up?"

Hearing that Mance could be so whimsical, Tormund Giantsbane pretended to drink Mance's wine glass as if nothing had happened, and laughed and said:

"I know that many clans living in extremely cold areas use ice to make weapons. Maybe that kid just lost to those clans and is embarrassed to admit it."

"Even the giants have left the mountains and come to answer our call. Who knows if something more terrifying will be attracted?"

Looking at the map of the Great Wall in his hand, Mance subconsciously touched the side, then glanced at the wine glass in Tormund's hand and said:

"Don't worry about those damn white ghosts for now, Tormund, you are responsible for leading a small team to cross the Great Wall and collect information about the Crow."

Phew~

Hearing that Mance actually entrusted him with such a dangerous job, the wine in Tormund's mouth spurted out. Then he looked at Mance in disbelief and said:

"Does the King Beyond the Wall only have so much courage? I just drank a glass of wine from you, and you actually asked me to die!"

Seeing this, Mance couldn't help but stepped forward and patted the other party's shoulder, then said calmly:

"It's not about dying. This is a very important task. We must know the distribution of Crow's troops on the Great Wall, otherwise there will definitely be heavy casualties."

"Why do I have to go? It has only been a few years, but have you already forgotten the distribution of troops on the broken wall?"

Even if Mance explained this, Tormund was still a little reluctant. After all, although wildlings did often cross the Great Wall to plunder the north, the mortality rate of this behavior was also frighteningly high.

The attacks by the Northern Patrol and the Crows were secondary. What frightened the savages the most was the horrific death rate when crossing the Great Wall!

The Rangers of the Night's Watch often find the crumbled remains of human beings at the bottom of the Great Wall, which are the savages who stumbled when they ventured over the wall.

What's more, the night watchmen are not vegetarians. Two trips back and forth are enough for the night watch sentries to discover their traces and start calling for more reinforcements.

"Don't worry, this time you are not asked to climb over the Great Wall, but to follow a smuggling ship to the north, and then find a way to go to the Great Wall to observe."

Mance was also a Night Watchman, so he also knew Tormund's difficulties, and he already had his own solution to this problem:

"Some of the people in the North are descendants of free people. As long as we can spend some money, we can let your team enter the coast of the North by boat."

"Then my dear King Beyond the Wall, what is the price?"

"It can fill half the cabin of the ship with gold ore and rough jewelry, plus a lot of precious furs and wood. If it weren't for the joint investment of several clans, I alone wouldn't be able to afford so much money."

Recalling the way the northern captain opened his mouth, Mance couldn't help but sigh, the price of freedom is really expensive.

Even Tormund was shocked by such a high shipping fee. He subconsciously touched his beard and complained:

"Is this a ticket to heaven? Why is it so expensive?"

"That is not a ticket to heaven, but a key to a new world for all free people. So can you understand your responsibility?"

Having said that, Mance looked at Tormund with a look of majesty, and the aura of the King Beyond the Wall immediately made this bragging and optimistic savage feel the pressure.

After thinking for a long time, Tormund nodded with difficulty under Mance's expectant gaze, then drank the wine in the glass and left the tent.

It didn't take long for a small team composed of several free citizen elites to complete their assembly, and then walked towards the southern coast, preparing to find the northern merchant ship.

Before leaving, Tormund suddenly remembered Mance's slightly ironic shouting:

"Giant Bane, don't forget to bring me some rose wine from the south. I only want the wine produced in Highgarden, not the wine from other places!"

"Don't worry, I will definitely bring it back to you alive!"

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Tormund's mouth, and he could naturally tell that this was Mance hinting that he would return safely.

But after all, he can be regarded as an experienced plunderer who often climbs the Great Wall, so as long as nothing unexpected happens, there shouldn't be any big mistakes this time.

However, at this time, neither Mance nor Tormund, nor even the free people in the entire land beyond the wall, knew that there was not much time left for them.

Because in the north, the threat of the White Ghost is getting closer, and in the land of eternal winter further north, a terrifying disaster that is enough to overturn the entire Westeros continent is coming!

————Northern Territory, Bear Island

As a remote island in the north, Bear Island, like most cities in the north, is not a wealthy city.

Because they are often attacked by pirates from the Iron Islands in the south and savage pirates from the north, even though most of the men on Bear Island are out fishing and hunting, the local women are also very tough.

At the fishing boat pier, a small merchant ship was docked among countless dilapidated small fishing boats, looking so luxurious and out of place.

On the ship, several sailors wearing leather armor were nervously surrounding a middle-aged man and asked uneasily:

"Captain, at most we only smuggled some goods to the savages before, are we really going to bring the savages into the north this time?"

"Yes, Captain, the women of the Mormont family are going crazy recently. They actually mobilized all the adult men around them to join the army. The situation is very tight right now!"

…

Looking at the sailors talking around, the captain obviously knew what they were afraid of, so he said fiercely:

"Needless to say, our smuggling of iron weapons to the savages is already a serious crime, but now it is just an added crime, and there is nothing to fear at all!

Moreover, this action is for the liberation of all the free people in the north. Such a great cause is naturally worth fighting for.

Besides, I also have the blood of a free citizen, so I naturally have reason to join this great struggle!"

Looking at the captain who looked like a 'savior' in front of them, all the crew members admired him very much on the surface, but they were full of contempt in their hearts.

If we omit the gold ore located in the cabin and the expensive bearskin jacket worn by the other party, then this sentence is more or less credible.

What's more, when the wildling pirates attacked last time, you were the first to rush into the Mormont family castle to escape. After being identified, you kept repeating your identity as a northerner.

Are there really people from the north who have trouble and free people who have nothing to do?

Facing the contemptuous eyes of the surrounding sailors, the captain had no intention of explaining himself, but took the initiative to give way:

"Don't worry, I've already made plans to wash my hands of myself after this job, so I know that if everyone can keep their mouths shut, the gold ore that is being passed on will be shared equally by everyone!"

"Oh!"

Hearing this, the crew members immediately roared excitedly. After all, as low-level sailors, they earned very little, and these gold ores were enough to keep them comfortable for more than ten years!

While everyone was cheering, a sailor suddenly noticed the huge black shadow floating on the sea level. He couldn't help but rub his eyes and said with a smile:

"Really, is it because I have been staring at the sea for too long? Why are the shadows of the dark clouds so big now?"

"Yes, I saw it too. Is it because we haven't eaten fruit recently?"

"Please don't. Fruits are very expensive these days. Shouldn't we still eat some cheap fresh vegetables?"

"Oh oh oh, I know there is a place with reasonably priced food recently. Maybe we can go..."

The sailors obviously did not realize the seriousness of the problem. At this time, they were excitedly discussing the latest vegetable prices, and did not notice the black shadow in the distance approaching from far away.

After a while, the captain who was getting wine in the cabin returned to the deck, holding the wine barrel and shouting excitedly:

"Brothers, we are not drunk today... By the gods, what is that?!"

Clang——

The sound of the wine barrel being smashed reached everyone's ears. The crew members who were sitting on the deck and resting looked at the frightened captain and stood up in a hurry.

Could it be that Ironborn or Wildling pirates are coming?

"By the gods!"

In the watchtower on Bear Island, the sentry looked at the moving island in the distance that was crashing towards Bear Island in fear, and hurriedly picked up the horn in his hand:

Wuwuwu——

The shrill sound of the horn instantly spread throughout Bear Island, but it woke up the entire island like thunder symbolizing the coming of long summer.

Whether it was a fisherman who was preparing to go out to sea, a woman who was doing needlework, or even a child who was playing around on the street using a wooden stick as a sword, there was a frightening and fierce light in his eyes.

Like hungry brown bears that had ended their hibernation, they put down what they were busy doing and raised the weapons that could be seen everywhere around them.

In the castle of Bear Island, several strong female warriors were walking out surrounded by a woman wearing mail, and at the same time asked the people around her:

"What's going on? Are the wildlings or ironborn here this time?"

"Mrs. Mei Ji, a huge floating island appeared on the sea, and there were various buildings on the island that I had never seen before, so the sentry blew the horn!"

"Moving floating island?"

Hearing this, the old woman, who was short but strong, could not help but frown, and then walked towards the coast with her daughters.

Along the way, Meiji kept asking the surrounding Bear Island residents who had taken up arms. She would not believe that there was a huge floating island.

When she learned from the frightened residents that the floating island was a strange warship that was even more magnificent than Bear Island, Mei Ji secretly breathed a sigh of relief:

"How can there be such a big floating island in this world? It's probably a dozen pirate ships overlapping the shadows of dark clouds in the sky!"

However, when she led the soldiers to the coast and saw with her own eyes the huge moving island not far away, all the doubts in her heart were answered.

It’s really a tmd floating island!

——On the Black Ark

"Finally I found an island with living people. All I saw before were icebergs. It was so boring!"

Looking at the somewhat barren island in the distance, Mekasha excitedly waved the staff in her hand, and a faint magical red light flashed from her eyes, showing her restless heart.

During the weeks of traveling, there was nothing interesting except watching Dario lead hundreds of thousands of auxiliary troops to perform boring military formation drills on the training ground every day!

Even if she wanted to conduct magic experiments, the lack of magical wind made her spellcasting extremely obscure, making it impossible for her to practice.

And the female elves who were traveling with them were all warlocks who practiced the death system. The systems on both sides were different, so there was no way they could talk to each other!

Mekasa, who was so frustrated, directly grabbed the aloof Dario next to her, and then requested with some excitement:

"It seems to be just an ordinary, backward island. There seem to be some humans living on it. Can we kill some to add to the fun?"

"No, our mission is only to explore the new world and find settlements. Such barren islands are not within our scope of choice at all. Just skip them."

Daario directly rejected Mekasa's request. Lord Rohan's order was to investigate, so he would never do this kind of additional massacre.

What's more, there are still 100,000 Pendor auxiliary troops on the Black Ark waiting for orders to massacre an island that may have less than 10,000 people. Is it a waste of money to kill a chicken with a knife?

Hearing this, Mekasa immediately wanted to refute excitedly, but after looking at the ferocious demon mask on Dario's face, she could only return to the cabin in depression.

There was no other way. If she was in front of Dario in the past, she could still talk a few words with her own strength, but now she could only choose to act stupid.

I can't help it, I can't beat it! Cry~

Sure enough, someone like Lisa Dilan, who is not as powerful as her and can be bullied casually, is the one who suits her best?

"You'd better understand the situation. We are not on an outing now, but on an exploration of a different world, so we must be careful!"

Looking at Mekasha's disappointed back, the corners of Dario's eyes under the mask couldn't help but twitch slightly, and then he said helplessly:

"Okay, you are allowed to go to that island for a while in the name of preaching, but be sure not to do anything that would insult Lady Misty, do you understand?"

Although Daario is now considered an independent god, Lady Mist is the mainstream after all, and he only needs to take care of the followers of the heretical goddess.

He had already seen a bear flag planted on the island. It was obvious that this place belonged to the territory of human nobles.

Although it is hard to believe that human nobles would actually stay in such a place, if it is for missionary purposes, then Daario does not mind letting Black stay here for a while.
