Chapter 72: Howling Wolf
"What? Sansa is missing? Didn't the guards downstairs see her coming out of Maegor's Tower?"

Joffrey, who was about to set off on a white steed when the Hound came to report in a hurry, frowned and asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Joe, let the guards keep a close watch on the entrance and exit of Maegor's Tower, Sansa can't escape.

Now, your father's funeral, the nobles, big and small, are waiting, there can be no delay. "

Beside Joffrey, Cersei, who was sitting in a sedan chair, thought for a while and suggested to him.

"Well, do it!
Since my fiancée wants to play hide-and-seek, you dog, stay and find her for me.

When I come back, I will play with her. "

Joffrey gave the Hound a smirk, and then turned his head and ordered,

"set off!"

At his order, the mighty traveling team began to march out from the inner gate of the Red Castle.

Varys in the traveling team looked solemn.He had already guessed that Sansa's disappearance must have something to do with Robb.

Baelish, on the other hand, thoughtfully, looked back at Maegor's Tower, then rode his horse and followed the team forward.

In Maegor's Mansion, apart from the royal bedroom, there is also a spacious and bright ballroom.

The size of this ballroom is enough to accommodate hundreds of people. There is a corridor above the ballroom, and huge arched windows line the walls of the corridor.

At the same time, there are many polished silver mirrors on the wall below, so that the sunlight outside the castle can be refracted to the entire ballroom through the arched windows.

There are many gorgeous carvings on the walls and pilasters of the ballroom. These carvings have figures, dragons, stags and so on.

Behind a pilaster carved with a crowned stag, Robb had been hiding behind for a long time, holding Sansa by the hand.

Due to the large-scale manhunt in King's Landing, the king's funeral was strengthened with guards.It can be said that the defense force in the Red Fort has dropped to the lowest level in history.

At the beginning of its construction, Meigor Building was positioned as a square fortress, not only with a large area, but also with many corners where people could hide.

Therefore, even though the Hound was leading a team of gold-cloaked guards to search separately, the ballroom was not searched for a while.

Looking up at the sun high in the sky through the arched windows, Robb murmured, "It's time!"

"Brother, what time is it?"

Sansa, who was very close, heard the whisper and asked.

Robb didn't answer, but smiled, pointed to his ear, and signaled Sansa to pay attention.

As early as during the Dreadfort War, Bloodwind could follow, and the Bolton family scouted the cavalry, and then conveyed general information to Robb from a long distance.

And as Blood Wind continued to grow, the scope of their close connection expanded.

While answering Sansa, Robb sent out his thoughts to his loyal companions who were closely connected with him outside the city of King's Landing.

Roar!blood wind!
……

Outside the city of Gods Gate, three or four kilometers away from the city gate, there is an ordinary small hotel.

At this moment, this small hotel is not ordinary at all, because it is surrounded by seventy or eighty Lannister soldiers secretly.

Toren and the two Winterfell cavalry had already been controlled by Lannister. The three of them were tightly tied with ropes and hung in the warehouse of the hotel.

clang, clang, clang!
In the back yard of the small hotel, there was a special carriage that was much larger than ordinary carriages. Its sealed cargo compartment began to shake from side to side and made a sound of metal collisions.

On the tiled roof of the hotel's bungalows, there were a row of archers crouching on the left and right, with crossbows in their hands.

When they heard the abnormal sound of the special carriage, they each looked at each other, a little nervous, and aimed the crossbow in their hands at the cargo compartment of the carriage.

clang, clang, clang!
Crunch!Crunch!
The shaking of the specially-made carriage became more and more severe, and at the same time, the crashing sound became more and more frequent.

Bang!
The cargo box of the carriage, which finally couldn't support it, was directly smashed to pieces from the inside to the outside, and all kinds of iron sheets and pieces of wooden boards fell to the ground.

Under the sunlight at noon, a giant armored wolf with a dazzling metallic light all over its body appeared on the carriage that was not covered by the cargo compartment.

The full body armor of this armored giant wolf is composed of thick block metal plates, which are connected by rivets.There are no patterns on the armor. It looks a little rough, but it also has a more primitive sense of power.

Except for the eyes, the long and narrow wolf mouth, and the exposed limbs and tail, the whole body of the giant wolf is protected by armor.

Trapped in a dark and sealed compartment with only a feeding port for nearly half a month.

Blood Wind, who was finally able to stretch his whole body and move freely, was filled with excitement.However, the excited Blood Wind did not forget the instructions Robb gave him.

It stepped on the front of the carriage with its two front feet, took a deep breath of air, and then tightened its abdomen. Then, it raised its head to the sky and let out a long wolf howl that could shake the entire city of King's Landing.

Ow! ! !

This extremely penetrating howl of wolves spread rapidly through the air, and in an instant, everyone in Jun's Landing City, as long as they were not deaf, could hear it.

……

King's Landing, before the Great Sept of Baelor,
The entire sanctuary is decorated with black crowned stag banners and corresponding decorations.

The archbishop stood on the stone steps in front of the Great Cathedral, and the dignitaries and dignitaries in King's Landing stood on the left and right of these dozens of steps according to their status, and the middle position was vacated by Joffrey and others.

Cersei is wearing a blood-red long gown today, adorned with gorgeous jewels.

Judging by her expression, she didn't seem to be attending her husband's funeral, but more like attending a wedding banquet.

Joffrey was wearing a decent black nobleman's dress, a black cloak of a crowned stag behind his back, and a golden lion long sword at his waist.

Not to mention anything else, this provocative appearance made the noble and prominent women present all have their eyes lit up, talking about him quietly.

Joffrey strode up the stone steps, followed by Cersei, Baelish, Varys, Pycelle and other ministers.Barristan, Jaime, Marin Tran and other Kingsguards protect the left and right.

Ow!

When the howling of the blood wind wolf came here, at this moment, everyone seemed to have been immobilized, their movements were all suspended, and they all fell into silence.

"Ah! It's scary!"

"What's that sound? A monster?"

"It sounds like a wolf howling!"

"Impossible, what kind of wolf would bark so loudly, a wolf with the blood of a dragon?"

After the dignitaries on the ladder realized it, discussions erupted one after another, like a noisy vegetable market.

"Jan... Uncle James, what's that?"

Joffrey, whose legs were a little limp from the fright, palely asked James who got up.

James turned his head to the direction of the gate of the gods from which the voice came, and said with certainty, "This is Robb Stark's direwolf."

"All direwolves make that sound? Or is it just Robb Stark's?"

Cersei frowned and asked James.

James shook his head, and replied with a thoughtful look on his face: "I don't know, but he must be an unusual wolf to be able to make such a sound. If I'm not wrong, there should be something wrong with the hotel.

The spy once told me that although the direwolf was big, it could be killed.During the Battle of Dreadfort, it was shot by ordinary bows and arrows, and it was seriously injured.

If the crossbowmen I arranged can't deal with this direwolf..."

After thinking for a while, James immediately turned his head and said to Cersei: "You continue to carry out the funeral ceremony in the Great Sept of Baylor, and I will bring someone to help."

Cersei nodded, and pulled Joffrey, who was still flustered, up the stairs.Except James, the rest of the Kingsguard followed closely behind.

"You guys, follow me!"

James called three teams of gold robes and walked towards the street on the left side of the Baelor Cathedral.

"Master James, that is the direction of the Alchemist Guild."

A gold-cloaked captain following James saw that he was going in the wrong direction, and reminded him.

"Shut up, you just need to follow me!"

……

Steel Street, Mob Blacksmith Shop.

Gendry, who was wearing a leather waistcoat, was swinging the hammer vigorously, hitting the red-hot iron in his hand, and sparks flew everywhere.

Ow!

The howling of wolves shook King's Landing, Gendry was taken aback for a moment, and then dropped the things in his hand with a full face of excitement.

Turning around, he picked up a refined horn helmet and a long-armed hammer on the table, and excitedly said to himself:

"The signal is coming!"
