Game of Thrones: Royal Game

Chapter 259 Special Achievements
"Did you know in advance that it was a monster, so did you insist on killing him?" Fermor asked Ian again after everyone followed the Unsullied who came in and evacuated from the top of the pyramid.

"Yes, I knew he was a monster a long time ago, but..." Ian replied with a sneer, "But I never dreamed that there was such a terrifying thing on him."

"So you don't know what that black liquid is?" Fermor asked immediately.

Ian didn't answer, just shook his head.

"Comfort the other nobles for me, and I'll explain to you later." Ian patted Fermor on the shoulder.

"Yes, my lord." Femor also saw Ian's irritability at the moment, so he temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart, took his leave and left.

After sending Femor away, Ian went back to the study alone, and half-lyed on the chair to take a rest.

As for what the black slime on Euron's body was, Ian actually had a vague guess.

The original author Martin once created a race called Deep Diver to pay tribute to the Cthulhu myth, and Ian suspected that the slime was related to this race.

Although the Deep One was only described as a legend and did not really appear in the original work, all the works in the Ice and Fire series themselves only show the tip of the iceberg of this world.

Maester Sylron of Westeros detailed the race in his manuscript The Strange Stone, describing it as 'a grotesque, monstrous race of half-humans born from the union of creatures born of the salt sea and human females. Product', and suggested that this sea salt creature is the true body of the Drowned God.

As a pirate who worships the Drowned God, Euron has sailed to every corner of the known world. It is quite possible that the black liquid on his body can be related to the deep divers.

In addition, Bachelor Schiller also believes that the ancient Blackstone Throne of the Iron Islands, the Seastone Seat, and the ancient Blackstone Fortress under the towering base of Old Town are the masterpieces of deep divers (it is also said that the Blackstone originated from another A race called 'Maze Builders', but there are legends that the Labyrinth Builders were wiped out by the Deep Ones, and there may be some unknown connection between them).

And the black mucus flowing out of Euron's body gave Ian the feeling of an oily black stone that came to life.

Of course, this is just speculation without evidence.

The original works of the entire Ice and Fire series have too few descriptions of these legendary races, and Ian can't draw conclusions at all.

If it was before, Ian would have no interest in these various alien creatures in the world of ice and fire, but this sudden blow sounded a wake-up call for Ian.

I may not be interested in these messy things, but what about other players?If other players find a way to obtain some unknown power, how can they defend themselves?

Shaking his head, Ian forcibly suppressed the anxiety in his heart.

In any case, the power of this unknown race is not much stronger, including the deep divers used to pay tribute to the mythology of the restraint system. The probability that this race can really lead to the old or foreign gods is zero.

Martin's homage to Ice and Fire is rife, but nothing that really affects the power system of the world itself.In the world of ice and fire, only the Lord of Light and the Old God (maybe the ancient God of Cold) truly possess great power, and the others are not on the table.

Just like the black slime just now, since it can be wiped out by Dragon Flame, how high can it be?

Suddenly, Ian heard a system prompt in his mind. He logged in to the system and found an extra email in his mailbox:
[First discovery of legendary species: deep diver, achieve special achievement 'Exploration of the World of Ice and Fire (1/7)'

Get 30 points]

Really Deep Diver?No, shouldn't deep divers be creatures?Can that black thing be considered a living thing?
Or does it mean that as long as you come into contact with the creation or magic product of a certain legendary species, it is considered as 'discovering the species'?
"This question exceeds the authority." The system AI Anne replied in Ian's mind.

"I didn't ask you at all." Ian rolled his eyes. He certainly didn't expect Anne to answer this kind of question.

Without much thought, Ian looked at the mail again, and he noticed that there was a '1/7' behind the achievement title 'Exploration of the World of Ice and Fire'.

Needless to say, it should mean that there are a total of seven exploration achievements in this series. Mr. Martin's favorite number is seven, and I don't know if the game planner is paying tribute to him.

Now that one of the achievements is known to be Deep Diver, what about the other six?
Children of the forest?Maze builder?Wing man?

A knock on the door interrupted Ian's thinking.

"Come in."

"My lord, we have taken down the Serenity." The Unsullied officer in charge of guarding the port opened the door and came to Ian.

"What about the damage to the ship?" Ian asked.

"We fought little, and the crew surrendered soon after we informed them of Euron's death, which made them rejoice."

Unexpected answer, Ian thought that the Serenity would resist so fiercely that the port guard had to bombard the ship with coastal defense equipment.But the sailors surrendered with reason. After all, they fought for Euron out of fear, and no one would be truly loyal to a man who had his tongue pulled out.

"What about the harvest?" Ian continued to ask.

"All have been moved into the pyramid."

"Take me to see."

Soon, Ian followed the Unsullied officer to another hall.

A large horn, two large boxes and six small boxes are neatly arranged in the center of the hall.

The twisted horn was six feet long from head to toe, gleaming with black light, and streaked with red gold and Valyrian black steel, carved with strange runes of Valyrian magic.The horn's display was clean and shiny. Ian stood in front of the horn and could see his own reflection on it.

Horn of the Dragon, Dragonbinder.

Legend has it that the dragon king of ancient Valyria used this horn and spells to control dragons.

But I don't seem to need it for the time being, if there are more dragons in the future, maybe it will be useful one day.

"Open them." Ian walked away from the horn, waved his hand, and the Unsullied ordered.

Soon, all the boxes were opened one by one.

The first big box contained all kinds of ancient Valyrian-style accessories and utensils. Ian took out two of them to have a look, and found that they were indeed the current Ghis people. At least they were incomparable to Astapor. luxury.

Ian can't measure the value of this whole box of accessories for the time being, but he knows that in a short time, he no longer needs to listen to Celia nagging about financial issues every day.
