Game of Thrones: I Created the Magic Web

Chapter 8 The Secret of Valyrian Steel
In the eyes of a thousand readers, there are a thousand Hamlets.

Looking at "The Four Kings" from the perspective of Joffrey at this time, he only read the irrepressible decline of the Targaryen dynasty after losing the dragon.

Daeron the Dragon King, Baelor the Blessed by God, Aegon the Worthy King, and Daeron the Wise King, the four kings either boasted of force, or maintained peace, or were fatuous and lustful, or cleaned up the evils.

Everything is no different from a normal feudal dynasty.

This is precisely the biggest problem.

Without the giant dragon to rely on, although the Targaryen dynasty can still be maintained, it has no strength to suppress the rise of the noble forces.

Even if each king is wise and wise and politically skilled, it is only a matter of time before the dynasty declines.

Without dragons, there would be no Targaryen dynasty.

Joffrey stroked the Valyrian steel sword the color of night.How my dynasty is depends on yours.

He is very confident in his golden finger.

Being able to feel and see means a lot in itself.I don't know how many theories and researches are stuck at the point of being unable to observe.

Just like here, although it is a magical world, people in the world cannot understand or observe magic intuitively.

Because of this, magic research is extremely difficult, and transmission and inheritance is even more difficult.

The ancient civilization of magic has long been lost.

In the public's current perception, all magic is mysterious, an accident and miracle that is difficult to replicate, and there are no clear rules.

Magic gradually became a legend.

It's a pity.It clearly has the potential of magical civilization, but it has developed into an ordinary world at the level of the Middle Ages.

Now that he has such a peerless talent, he may be able to make the world more magical.

Joffrey was motivated.

The secret of Valyrian steel was the beginning of his magical journey.

"Erin, bring some more swords!"

Joffrey directed his squires.The performance data of Wagang is almost tested, and it is time to verify that conjecture.

"As ordered."

Erin Lanter knew her place.

As the son of a merchant in Lannisport, he was able to squeeze into the crown prince's side, so his ability and temperament were naturally far beyond ordinary people.

Although the crown prince gave him an extremely difficult task, and destroyed so many steel swords for no reason.Erin remained silent, resolutely obeying any order, standing on the last post.

Joffrey's attention was on the tile-steel sword in his hand.

There are many people in the Red Castle, so he can only carry out experiments in a roundabout way. From last night's groping until now, he finally made some discoveries.

Under the white light of Valyrian steel, there were white shimmering patterns similar to those on glass candles.

Every time the tile steel sword cuts off an ordinary steel sword, or collides with the same intensity, the white light will dim a little, until it gets dark to a certain extent, and the pattern of shimmering light will appear.

If it continues, the pattern will disappear, and Joffrey will lose his sense of it.

After that, the destructive power of Wagang against other weapons will be slightly reduced, and it will be damaged even more against Wagang with white light.

Fortunately, the pattern and white light can slowly recover, but the sensitivity of the gemstone and crystal ball weakens accordingly.

Joffrey probably figured it out.

The Valyrians used excellent and unique technology to manufacture steel, and then attached sustainable magic to it in a certain way, which created a complete and perfect Valyrian steel.

Is that the pattern?How to do it?
"Your Highness, the sword is coming."

Erin brought a large pile of standard long swords in gold robes with a few servants.

Joffrey chose a steel sword at random.Could the pattern turn the sword into Valyrian steel?Always try.

"Go down, I'm going to rest."

The dark night and the candlelight in the room are very convincing, but looking at the steel sword in the prince's hand, Erin really couldn't believe this statement.

"As ordered."

Erin led the servants and turned to leave. The moment before he closed the door, he did not forget to show his loyalty, "If your Highness needs anything, you only need to ring the bell. Your loyal servant is always waiting for your call."

Joffrey just waved his hand.

If there is no accident, this guy will not be needed to serve for a few months.

Valyrian steel.

Wow quack, listen, let me see.

……

The scented candle, which was as thick as a girl's wrist, was two or three knuckles short.

Joffrey rubbed his eyes wearily.

During this time, he tried everything he could think of.

Smear blood on the tile steel, meditate on the structure of the pattern on the steel sword, use the tile steel to engrave the pattern on the steel sword, write with blood, and trace with the "magic source" gem crystal.

Use a tile-steel dagger with sufficient white light to cut the tile-steel chain link that has lost its white light, and insert the patterned chain link fragments into the steel sword.

Even meditate on patterns in your mind.Chant all the outlandish syllables you can think of.

The results were disappointing.The pattern will not be transferred, the ordinary steel sword will not change in any way, and meditation and chanting will have no effect.

The secrets of Valyrian steel seem elusive.

Joffrey tugged at the cord that held the bell.

Research and development require the accumulation of time and opportunities.It's better to rest early, there will be a long time to come.

Erin soon appeared. "Your Highness?"

"Dispose of all these swords," Joffrey pointed to the pile on the ground, "there's no need for them."

The servants sprang into action.

After the task was completed, Erin glanced at the crown prince's figure, and quietly retreated out.

Joffrey was asleep.

Perhaps it was due to excessive energy consumption, but he slept quite peacefully and had a sweet dream.

In the dream, he had ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.

The majesty of the Iron Throne reached its peak, and all the lords and princes bowed their heads.

His people are quiet and obedient, his laws are implemented absolutely, his government orders prevail in the seven kingdoms, and his army is omnipotent. The armor and weapons equipped by hundreds of thousands of soldiers are all Valyrian steel.

Valyrian steel.

He dreamed of the white pattern.

With little effort, the pattern becomes clearer and brighter.

Gradually, the pattern that only exists in fantasy seems to have crossed a certain boundary, giving birth to a trace of mystery, and instantly occupying the entire dream.

Joffrey forgot to breathe, and fell into unconscious confusion.

Fortunately, it didn't take long, and all the Valyrian steel in the bedroom seemed to resonate, and the white light suddenly brightened, and then disappeared completely.

However, the patterns in the dream burst out with brilliance, extending, supplementing, and interpreting on their own, getting rid of all the shackles in an instant, and transforming into a more complex and mysterious existence.

The tangible pattern disappears, and the invisible one is born.

wake up.

Joffrey sat up suddenly, opened his eyes and panted heavily, and looked around nervously, as if he had just encountered some indescribable horror.

Under the dim candlelight is all the normal bedroom layout.Quiet and safe.

He breathed a sigh of relief and gradually calmed down, only then did he notice that all the tile and steel products in the bedroom had lost their induction, white light and patterns.

More than a dozen pieces of tile steel and dozens of patterns are gone.

After being stunned for a while, he held his breath and began to meditate.

The darkness and emptiness lasted for a while, and the invisible thing suddenly emerged in his consciousness, making him feel its existence.

I succeeded? !This is not a dream, is it?
Joffrey got out of bed and walked to the mirror. In the mirror, there was a familiar white light on his forehead.

He was completely relieved.

Recalling the twists and turns of tonight, he couldn't help but lament the moodiness of the goddess of fate.I can't force it, and after giving up hope, I rushed to deliver it to my door.

In addition, the magic in the plot is often associated with people's dreams, which does not seem to be accidental.

It's just a shame about the Valyrian steel.

But since you can get the key of "it" to open the door of mysterious magic.It's all worth it.

Joffrey felt vaguely a sublimation of mind and soul.

He laughed wantonly.

Game of Thrones, Song of Ice and Fire, no matter sword or magic, now has the capital of game.

Stannis, Varys, Renly, Citadel, White Walkers... All rebellious and foreign enemies will eventually become stepping stones to the throne!
