The Iron Throne of Ice and Fire

Crow's Eye's gift must contain poison...

"What do I have to give, Euron?"

Euron Greyjoy spread his hands helplessly and said: "We are brothers. I need your help in my journey. This is just a little sincerity on my part."

There was undisguised disgust in Elen's eyes: "No one knows you better than me. Stop acting. I can feel your hostility towards me."

Hearing this, Crow Eyes laughed suddenly: "Hostility? We are indeed a family. I can feel this from you too."

Ellen snorted coldly and said, "It really makes me feel ridiculous to hear the word family from your mouth."

Crow Eye's smile faded slightly, he pinched his chin, and the smile on his lips spread again: "You misunderstood me too deeply, it seems... we really need to have a good talk, my brother, I need you ”

Aeron's eyes met the eye next to Crow's Eye's eye patch. He paused and then spoke slowly: "Where is your final destination, Euron?"

"worldwide."

"worldwide?"

"First the green land."

"Green land?"

Crow Eyes grinned and spread his hands: "The entire green land."

Aeron stared at the crow's eye for a while and said: "You want to conquer the Seven Kingdoms? You are really a madman. The lords and knights of the Green Land will never allow a sea monster to become their king."

Crow's Eye didn't care about Aeron's comments. He shrugged and said, "Didn't Robert Baratheon snatch the Iron Throne from Targaryen more than ten years ago?"

Aeron sneered and said: "He can sit firmly on that iron chair because his grandmother is a Targaryen. This is at least in line with the inheritance laws of the Green Land. And what about you, King Greyjoy? Even you Seizing the Iron Throne will give every man and woman in the Green Lands a reason to kill you, and all the Ironborn who follow you."

"You are indeed a rare item in the sea monster family." Crow Eye took a sip of wine from the silver cup, paused, and said slowly: "I can find the legal principle you mentioned. Don't forget, Viserys Tange Although Leanne is dead, he still has a true dragon sister--Daenerys Targaryen."

Crow's Eye's gift was indeed poisonous... Aeron, who had no expression on his face, slightly bent his fingers. The person in front of him was just trying to comfort him. Maybe tomorrow's voyage would be his last voyage.

Aeron glanced at the wooden box containing the Dragon's Horn, and the Drowned God's people...had an idea.

His voice rang in the dim room: "That princess has disappeared a long time ago. You are not the only smart person in this world."

Crow Eye looked over with his smiling eye: "There is no place in this world that I cannot reach, and there is nothing in this world that I cannot find."

Ellen's eyes couldn't help but move: "Do you know where she is?"

Hearing this, Crow Eyes' lips curved and he said with great interest: "You seem to be interested in the True Dragon Princess too, my brother?"

Aeron glanced at Crow's Eye's unclothed body with disgust and said, "It seems you don't know where she is. Euron, you are talking to me about your own dreams."

Crow's eyes flashed sharply, and after a pause, he suddenly laughed: "Compared to you now, you were more interesting when you were a child."

Seeing that Aeron's stone statue-like expression was finally broken, he smiled successfully, waved his hand, and said: "Okay, okay, I can tell you. It is said that the red viper of Dorne once appeared in Wesei The burial place of Lys - the city-state of Cantus. Later, he happily went to King's Landing as his brother's envoy, which was unusual... plus he died inexplicably in the Women's Branch of King's Landing."

After a pause, he pinched his chin and continued: "This is enough to prove that some people don't want the Red Viper to continue to inquire about the True Dragon Princess."

After a pause, there was a hint of sarcasm in Aeron's voice: "That person is in King's Landing? You can't find the Targaryen princess, Euron, just by relying on this information."

Crow Eye stretched out his hand, grasped it as if he had grasped something, and said: "No, with the other information in my hand, I may be able to find the person hiding in the shadows soon, and Lovely princess."

Aeron's eyes moved slightly: "Who is that person?"

"You will know later." Crow's Eye walked to the table and filled two glasses with strange black wine. It was sticky... like honey.

He came to Aeron with two wine glasses and handed one of them to him: "I will tell you when I defeat the Redwin fleet rushing to rescue, my brother... when sea monsters and dragons The whole world will hold its breath when we marry. And once I claim the Iron Throne, my Seastone will be yours, just as I inherited Balon."

Aeron lowered his eyes and saw that the sticky substance in the cup was more blue than black, and it smelled like rotten flesh.

Aeron did not reach out to take the cup handed to him by Crow's Eye: "Tomorrow morning, my people and I will sail with you."

Crow Eye moved the wine glass in his hand: "This is a good thing. It's called Night Shadow Water, the wizard's wine. It can open your horizons."

The Water of Nightshade is a thick blue drink that the wizards of Qarth in Essos drink all year round. If they drink it regularly, the lips of that person will turn blue.

Rumor has it that the water of night shadow can allow drinkers to see events closely related to their destiny, whether it is the past or the future. Therefore, wizards drink Night Shadow Water to achieve a psychedelic state to help them perform magical rituals or explore the spiritual world.

"Forgive me for refusing your wine."

As Crow's Eye's smile turned stiff, Aeron walked over and picked up the wooden box containing the Dragon's Horn.

"See you in the morning, Euron."

After speaking, Aeron glanced at Crow's Eye, who was standing still, and left the room without looking back.

In the silent corridor, Aeron took out a palm-sized piece of blank parchment and a short pen from his wide sleeves.

While walking, he pricked the skin of his wrist with the tip of his pen, and blood immediately emerged from the wound.

The bustle in the hall continued as Aeron descended the stone steps.

Walking down the stairs, Aeron did not pause. He did not go towards the hall, but came to the kitchen at the back, passed through the trembling servants, and left Hewett Castle through the small door there.

In the silent darkness, there was only the sound of Aeron's footsteps, his heavy breathing, and the sound of waves in the distance.

Aeron stopped and suddenly said: "You can come out now, Chief Hesuo."

Not far away, a black shadow moved. After a while, a low curse sounded: "Pirates are really not suitable for this."

Under the dim moonlight, leader He Suo scratched his head and walked over slowly: "I'm just worried that you can't get out..."

"Don't talk nonsense." With that said, Aeron put down the wooden box, opened it, took out the dragon's horn inside, and handed it to the leader He Suo who had come to his side.

Leader He Suo caught it blankly and said with some disbelief: "This is... the Dragon's Horn?"

Ignoring He Suo, Aeron picked up a few stones and put them into the wooden box, then closed the lid.

Aeron spoke much faster than usual: "You need to take advantage of the cover of night to set sail and leave here immediately. Can you do it?"

Chief Ho Suo couldn't help but speak faster: "Chief Rodrik is a kind scholar, not a ruthless pirate. He once told me that I can come back at any time, so... I am ready to escape at any time. Prepare."

Aeron glanced at the Dragon Horn held in He Suo's arms, nodded, and said: "Very good, you go right away and give it to Asha. Tell her that the position of Seastone belongs to her and her brother. Well, the Drowned God will protect her. Leave immediately without delay."

Leader Hesuo paused slightly with his raised foot and said, "Lord Aeron, we can walk together. I will definitely bring you back to the Iron Islands safely."

"Don't underestimate Euron, and... give this to Asha's uncle."

Handing the densely rolled parchment to Leader He Suo, he bent down, picked up the wooden box, and disappeared into the night.

The rose flag fluttered wantonly in the wind. Garlan Tyrell kicked the spurs of the horse violently, and the horse neighed loudly and galloped forward like the wind.

He rode through the third gate of Highgarden, and soon a main castle made of white marble appeared in front of him.

Sir Garland slowly tightened the reins, letting the horse's speed gradually slow down, and finally stopped steadily in front of the gate of the main castle. He jumped off the horse neatly, and the moment his feet landed on the ground, a small piece of air rose. dust.

In the balcony garden, Willas Tyrell put down his quill, looked at his younger brother who was striding towards him, showed a gentle expression, and said, "Brave Garland, welcome home."

Sir Garland showed a pleasant smile: "Vilas, you look good."

Garland was a little fat boy when he was a child. His brother gave him the nickname Brave Garland to protect his younger brother from being laughed at by others.

This also prevented him from "inheriting" their uncle's nickname - Fat Garth, for which... he was extremely grateful to his brother.

Vilas, who was sitting in a wheelchair, gestured to the servant behind him and pushed him in front of his younger brother.

Vilas looked at it and said, "You've had a hard time on the road, you can take a good rest first."

Sir Garland walked a few steps, lifted the chair with one hand, sat down, and said: "Vilas, I can't wait to board the Shield Islands right now and hang all the pirates."

Vilas chuckled: "Give me some time and let me prepare the boat. You still have enough time to rest."

The servant brought the wine glass, and Sir Garland reached out to pick it up, took a big sip, and said, "Is there any new information about Greyjoy?"

Willas took the wine glass, took a sip, and said: "They are still partying on Oak Shield Island, but... this may be to confuse us. I have given orders to all the lords along the coast to strengthen their defense. ”

Ser Garland leaned back in his chair, paused, and said, "I never dreamed that Greyjoy would dare to attack the Reach."

"It was the war in the Seven Kingdoms that gave them 'courage'." Shaking the silver wine glass in his hand, Loras continued: "I found out that Euron Greyjoy gave the Shield Islands to his leaders. "

Hearing this, Sir Garland laughed angrily: "Are these pirates crazy? Loras, whether it is a fishing boat or a merchant ship, I will lead my troops to the Shield Islands as soon as possible and let them taste the sharpness of rose thorns."

"Perhaps this is Euron Greyjoy's trap."

His brother's calm voice made Sir Garland suppress his rising anger. Willas continued: "I have sent an envoy. Before the war begins... we must first redeem the captives from Greyjoy. Lan, all the vassals in the Reach are watching House Tyrell."

Ser Garland spread his hands helplessly and said: "Well, this is indeed more important. We cannot trust Greyjoy's kindness."

Vilas nodded slightly and said: "My brother, don't be impatient. The 30,000 reinforcements sent by my father, as well as the Redwin fleet that is returning, will be put under your command. When the time comes... I'll wait to see you. Hang all intruders, brave Garan."

Sir Garland's right hand clenched into a fist, and his voice was slightly excited: "Brother, thank you for your trust. I will definitely insert Euron's head on the gate of Highgarden."

Royal Fleet Docks on the Blackwater River.

Orion Waters, the commander of the royal fleet appointed by Cersei, is leading the captains to receive seven newly built galleons.

Among them, the new flagship of the royal fleet "Lord Tywin" has twice the number of oars as the previous flagship of the royal fleet "King Robert's Hammer", making it the largest.

The most gorgeous of all is the Sweet Cersei, whose prow resembles the gilded form of Queen Cersei, wearing mail and a lion's helmet, holding a spear.

The remaining ships were also named by Cersei Lannister herself, namely: Lady Joanna, Valiant Joffrey, Princess Myrcella, King Tommen, and Lioness.

Orion Weishui's silver-gold hair was very dazzling in the sun. He stood on the bow deck of the "Sweet Cersei", looked around, and suddenly laughed: "Without the Redwin fleet, this place seems empty. A lot.”

The people standing around him laughed together. Most of them were young people who were personally promoted by Oren Weishui.

Davos's second son, Arad Seaworth, standing in the crowd, twitched his lips and let out a perfunctory laugh.

Through the letter of recommendation written by Duke Green to Queen Cersei (Chapter 415), he left Kleb's Dragonstone fleet and joined the royal fleet.

"Arad Seaworth."

Hearing Oren Weishui suddenly call him, he walked out of the crowd, put his right hand on his chest, and saluted: "Lord Oren."

Oren raised his gray-green eyes and looked at the tall Arad casually. A slightly frivolous smile appeared on his face and said: "Queen Cersei specifically asked me to let you serve as a new ship in the royal fleet." Captain of the ship. We have gone around a circle, look, which ship do you want?"

Orion's tone sounded like the ships of the royal fleet were his own private property, which made the second son of Davos frown.

He lowered his face, hiding his emotions, and said respectfully: "I will obey your arrangement, Lord Oren."
