Game of Thrones: Attack on the North Wolf

After a delightful lunch with the Tyrell family, Robb and Margaery took an after-dinner exercise to help digestion in her gorgeous boudoir.

I don't know if it's because the relationship between Stark and the Tyrell family was officially confirmed today, and Margaery served Robb more actively than before, making him feel relaxed and comfortable from the inside out.

At this moment, Robb deeply understands the classic saying of his ancestors in his previous life, the gentle township is the hero's tomb!
Robb, who was no more than an ordinary social animal in his previous life, has already reached the point where he wakes up and controls the power of the world, and lies drunk on the lap of a beauty.

However, Robb, who knows the great danger hidden in Westeros, naturally cannot indulge in it!

After ruthlessly rejecting Margaery's invitation to fight again with pink cheeks and spring eyes, Robb tidied up his clothes under Margaery's relatively unfamiliar service and left Highgarden Castle.

When Robb led the wolf guards back from the inner fort to the station in the port area of ​​the West Gate, Theon came up with Ramsay who followed him.

"Robb, that Gendry boy seems to be very talented at forging! I showed him the Valyrian steel dagger that the blacksmith in Highgarden couldn't do anything about, and he said he could reforge it today.

It's boring to stay in his tent, so I took Yala and someone to guard outside the tent, and made a special trip here to wait for you to come back. "

Theon, who is used to living a luxurious life now, must wear brand-new gorgeous clothes as long as it is not in wartime.As soon as he came to Blood Wind, he opened his mouth to report with a smile on his face.

"Oh? I was planning to give him enough time to try, but I didn't expect to be able to recast so soon?"

Robb had a surprised expression on his face when he heard this, he turned over and jumped off Blood Wind, and replied to Theon.

"That's why I said that he is very talented! But, such a good blacksmith, you let him be a cavalryman who charged into battle?
If he accidentally died in battle, wouldn't it be a waste of his casting talent? "

It can be seen that Theon really appreciates Gendry, and he rarely likes to meddle in other people's affairs, and he rarely expresses his opinion to Robb.

"Hehe, this is the path he chose. And maybe his talent for fighting is stronger than his talent for casting? After all, flowing in his body..."

"Eh? What's flowing? You always like to talk in half, it's so appetizing!
Forget it, as long as you don't want to say it, I'm sure it's useless to ask again.let's go!I'll accompany you to Gendry's blacksmith tent! "

When he heard Robb's words stop abruptly, Theon immediately complained angrily.He buried his head and walked towards Gendry's tent at the camp.

Ramsay, who had been listening silently, had a strange look in his eyes when he heard the words, and then he followed Theon quietly like a loyal dog.

"Vil, you go and bring Moloya Hightower to Gendry's tent. By the way, let Clay bring along the moonstone he kept."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Robb looked at the backs of Theon and Ramsay, and without looking back, he gave Will an order and walked forward.

Like Margaery, Gendry arrived at Highgarden yesterday, but he didn't come along the Esplanade from Crake Hall, but came by boat from Lannisport.

On the day when the Highgarden War ended, Robb, who had seen the incompetence of the Highgarden blacksmiths, urgently ordered him to come to Highgarden.

Because, after confirming his previous conjecture about Valyrian steel from Moroya Hightower, he planned to create a set of equipment for the blood wind to defend against spiritual charm magic.

As for the raw material of Valyrian steel, it is naturally the keel dagger that Littlefinger used to frame Tyrion.

The reason why Robb thinks that Gendry has the ability to recast Valyrian steel is because his former master blacksmith in King's Landing, Tob Mott, made a high-profile claim that he knew the spell and recasting of Valyrian steel. method.

clang, clang!
As soon as Robb and the others approached Gendry's blacksmith tent, they could hear the rhythmic sound of metal clashing from inside.

Many of Theon's ironborn guards were guarding the unusually large tent. When they saw Theon and Robb coming hand in hand, they immediately saluted respectfully and opened the tent.

Gendry's blacksmith tent was specially prepared by Robb for the Tyrell family. It contained everything from a large furnace with a bellows to high-purity charcoal and casting tools.

"Your Majesty, King Theon!"

Seeing Robb and the others enter the tent, Gendry with his bare upper body and bronzed muscles put the big hammer in his hand on the iron pier in front of him, and saluted Robb and Theon respectfully.

"Well, Gendry, you've worked hard! But Yara, what's going on with you?"

Robb first nodded his condolences to Gendry, then turned his head to the corner of the tent, and asked Yara who was directing two ironmen to pack several corpses into bags.

"Your Majesty, the blacksmith boy let me in before and told me that reforging Valyrian steel requires a blood sacrifice, so I found a few captives who were judged to be death row by Lord Clay."

Yara heard Robb's question, and immediately answered with a respectful bow.

"No, Your Majesty. I'm talking about the need for fresh blood. But after Lord Yala brought these prisoners over, he immediately slit their throats, and I didn't have time to stop them!"

As soon as Yara's words fell, Gendry, who has a straightforward personality, eagerly opened his mouth to explain the truth to Robb.

"Well, it's okay, just a few death row prisoners. I just want to know if their blood has any effect?"

Robb waved his hands after hearing the words, and then talked about the topic he was most concerned about.

"Of course, Your Majesty. It's just..."

Hearing Robb's question, Gendry nodded and answered him, then looked at the other people in the tent hesitantly.

"Except Theon, everyone else go out! If Will and Clay come, let them inform me outside!"

The method of recasting Valyrian steel was obviously a secret, and Robb gave the order directly when he saw that Gendry had scruples.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After everyone, including Yara, saluted Robb, they turned and walked out of the tent.Only Theon was left with a smile on his face because of the special treatment he had.

"Sorry, Your Majesty. Actually, I don't want to keep the recasting technique a secret. It's because my recasting technique was not taught by Master Tuobu...

But I learned it secretly! "

Seeing that everyone else had walked out of the tent, Gendry lowered his head in shame, and then spoke to Robb and the others.

Hearing Gendry's explanation, Robb realized that he didn't want to treasure technology, but had such concerns.

It's no wonder that Westeros' criminal laws are very loose for nobles, but extremely harsh for commoners.

Gendry's behavior of stealing technology can be defined as the crime of theft, and the degree of punishment for the crime of theft varies according to the situation of the seven countries. The severe punishment is directly hanged, and the easiest is to cut off an arm.

Of course, the thieves have another choice, which is to put on black clothes and join the night watchman.Given the frequency of thefts in Westeros, thieves are one of Castle Black's main sources of strength.

"Gendry, in the name of the king, I pardon you for stealing. So back to the topic, talk about this Valyrian steel!"

With a smile on Robb's face, he spoke to Gendry, who was upright and frank.

"Tch, I thought you kid was going to say something! So it's just such a small thing!"

On the other hand, Theon rolled his eyes and complained mercilessly. In his eyes, this matter about Gendry was just a fart.

Hearing Robb's words, Gendry immediately raised his head and nodded gratefully to him, then turned and opened the stove lid behind him.

call!
As soon as the stove cover was opened, a gust of scorching hot air rushed over, instantly raising the temperature in the tent by a few degrees.

The orange flame that suddenly appeared in front of the stove made Theon subconsciously turn his head away, while Robb observed carefully with his ice crystal eyes as if nothing had happened.

I saw that there was a large amount of red-burning high-purity charcoal piled up in the blazing stove, and there was an iron pot the size of a casserole inside the stove, which contained Valyrian steel that had melted into liquid.

After turning on the stove, Gendry seemed to have opened up the chatter box, and began to introduce Robb endlessly: "Your Majesty, Valyrian steel is very difficult to melt, even if it is made of high-purity charcoal and supplemented with fire-supporting materials." It doesn't work either.

Master Toub said he speculated that the finished Valyrian steel might be so special because it was protected by magical spells.

Therefore, the first step in recasting technology is to use blood magic spells to break the protection of the original magic. "

"Eh? That's not right! Didn't you just say that the recasting technique was learned by stealing? Why is Master Tuobu telling you now!"

Hearing this, Theon suddenly interrupted Gendry's words.

"I'm just an ordinary apprentice, and Master Tuobu naturally wouldn't teach me. But he would often drag me to chat after getting drunk.

That time, he seemed to have been pissed at the Blacksmiths Guild. After getting drunk, he kept yelling that he was bragging, and he really didn't know how to make Valyrian steel.But the recasting technique was something he had learned at a huge cost in Kohor.

Then, he dug out his treasured casting notes and said that it is very difficult to have the opportunity to recast Valyrian steel in this life, and he can only review the casting notes occasionally to prevent forgetting the skills.

And I also secretly memorized Master Tuobu's casting notes at this time. "

"So, Gendry, now that the Valyrian steel is molten, the blood magic spell is indeed effective.

Come, cast your blood magic spells on the ice sword in my hand! "

Compared with Theon, who likes to listen to gossip, Robb's attention is more keenly focused on blood magic spells.He stretched out his left hand and condensed an ice crystal long sword, and said to Gendry.

"Yes!"

Gendry nodded, grabbed a handful from the big pot of sticky blood next to him with his bare hands, then wiped it on the ice crystal long sword in Robb's hand, and began to say some spells that no one could understand.

When Gendry's spell was finished, there was no sound in the tent except the crackling of the fire.However, the ice crystal long sword in Robb's left hand has no other changes except adding blood stains.

"...Maybe, this blood magic spell only works on Valyrian steel!"

I thought that if this blood magic spell had the effect of breaking magic, it would be of considerable value.But Robb looked at the ice crystal sword in his hand that had not changed, and speculated with some uncertainty.

"Maybe! Your Majesty, I have already made the mold just now. Shall I start recasting now?"

"Well, let's get started!"

After receiving Robb's reply, Gendry placed the mold he had just made on the iron pier, then clamped the iron pot in the furnace with an iron tong, and began to pour molten Valyrian steel into the mold.

Accompanied by countless small burning sparks, the Valyrian steel juice flowed along the lines on the mold into rows of little finger-sized mold grooves.

At this time, Gendry repeated the spell-casting action of using blood just now, and cast a blood magic spell on each mold.

Finally, after Gendry's sizzling tempering action, the keel dagger became one large and six small, for a total of seven pairs of earrings.

Looking at the seven pairs of earrings that Gendry put on the long table in the tent, Robb's ice crystal long sword in his left hand suddenly fell towards them.

呲!
When the ice crystal long sword came into contact with several ear studs, it broke into several sections, and then quickly dissipated into the air.It was exactly the same as when he collided with Earl Randyll's Heartbreaking Sword.

"A demon-breaking effect, indeed! Well, Gendry, I'm afraid your blood magic spells are only intended to suppress and restore the special power of Valyrian steel."

Looking at the seven pairs of stud earrings, Robb, who had been thinking carefully, said to Gendry.

Afterwards, Gendry experimented with the second blood magic spell according to Robb's guidance, and it was true that the new weapon did not have a special effect of destroying magic.

"Theon, Gendry, each of you take a stud! They will protect you from the control of spiritual magic."

"Thanks, Robb!"

"Your Majesty, I don't need it!"

Hearing Robb's words, Theon unceremoniously chose an earring, while Gendry was forced to accept it by Robb.

Robb gave Gendry the earrings as payment for his recasting, and as for Theon's earrings...

"Hey, Sean, come on, I'll get your ears pierced right now!"

"Huh? No, no need! I don't think I need to wear earrings either."

Hearing Robb's words, Theon wanted to refuse directly, but he could beat Robb who had great strength.Robb forcibly pierced a hole in his left ear with a tiny icicle.

"Your Majesty, I have brought Lord Clay and Moroya Hightower!"

Theon, who was full of resentment, had just put on the earrings when Will's announcement came from outside the tent.

"come in!"

After Robb answered, Will took Clay and Moloya into the tent.

"Your Majesty, I've been thinking about it for the past few days. It seems that you don't need runes to resonate with the rune structure when you build the ice application.

So, can I feel the runic energy in your body? "

As soon as she entered the tent, Moloya, who had dark circles under her eyes, asked Robb eagerly.

"I'll think about it, but first I need you to do something small for me!"

Robb nodded to Moloya when he heard the words, and then turned to Clay and said,

"Clay, give her the moonstone you kept."

Clay didn't ask too much, and directly handed over the moonstone, which was only the size of a soybean, to Moroya according to Robb's order.

"Use your charm on him!"

"Huh? Me?"

Seeing Robb pointing at himself, Theon, who still felt pain in his ears, had a dull expression on his face.

This Moloya was quite obedient, and as soon as Robb finished speaking, she raised the moonstone in her right hand and chanted a spell at Theon.

In Robb's vision, as Moloya's spell ended, a dark blue light suddenly shot from the moonstone in her hand to Theon's head.

Then, just like his previous ice crystal long sword, it suddenly dissipated into the air.

In Theon's field of vision, only a dark blue light was seen in Moloya's hand, and then he looked down at his body, as if nothing had happened.

"No effect? ​​Well, is there Valyrian steel?"

After casting the charm, Moroya found that she did not have that mysterious connection with the target, so she stopped her spell-casting action, and then turned her head to ask Robb.

"Well, it seems that you really didn't lie to me about Valyrian steel!"

"I didn't lie to you about other information. But look at your posture. Did you use blood magic to recast Valyrian steel?"

Moloya's knowledge of mysticism is indeed rich, and she guessed what Robb and the others did after a rough scan.

"That's right! Is there something wrong?"

"I'd rather study necromancy than touch blood magic. Believe me, I can't escape the punishment of the gods after learning blood magic!"

When it comes to blood magic, Moroya no longer calls it by the name of mysticism.It's just that he persuaded Robb with a heavy tone.

After hearing the words, Robb immediately showed a strange expression and asked Moloya: "Huh? Don't you claim to be a bachelor of the Academy City? You still believe in gods?"

Looking at Robb with a surprised face, Moroya answered without hesitation: "I can't represent the Academy City. However, based on what I know.

The reason why the Academy tried its best to build a world without occultism was because it didn't want Westeros to suffer the fate of Valyria.

Hundreds of years ago, a doctor of Xuecheng speculated that the reason for the destruction of Valyria may be that they used evil blood magic wantonly, and as a result angered the gods, so they were directly destroyed by the doomsday catastrophe! "
