Game of Thrones: Royal Game

Chapter 73 Mission Clues
The most troublesome thing is that there is a certain conflict between this [Treasure Hunt Game] and Ian's current plan.

Darren Grafson and Roll have been waiting for Ian in Duskendale Town for nearly a week. If Ian spends an unknown amount of time going to King's Landing to hunt for treasure, he doesn't know how to explain himself to Darren What did you do.

Ian can only choose King's Landing if he wants to hunt for treasure, because based on his current location, if he chooses to go to Old Town or Volantis, even if he rushes to the nearest port by boat, it will take nearly two months to arrive. .

So give up?Ian hesitated for a while, then shook his head.

He can't.

Such a treasure chest may not be very attractive to Ian himself, but its blessing to the enemy is too terrifying.

A Valyrian steel greatsword is even a way to complete mainline [-] for players in Westeros.

If a player gets the Valyrian steel greatsword and takes it to Casterly Rock City and dedicates it to Tywin, the Duke of Tywin can pay him tens of thousands of golden dragons as a reward at one time, or even give him a small town in the western region. Castle, make him a baron.

After all, Tywin has been greedy for tiles and steel swords for most of his life.
Therefore, the player who finds the treasure chest can directly complete the main line [-] and the main line [-] in a row. If that person happens to kill one or two players during the process of capturing the treasure chest, Ian's number one position in the scoreboard will be instantly lost. stabilized.

If he chooses not to fight at this time, it means that he has given up the opportunity.

Must grab!Ian made a decision.

Because it is not just these players in the east of Westeros who will choose the treasure chest of King's Landing as the target.Those players in Pentos City who can't find a way to knock on the door of Illyrio's mansion for the time being, will most likely take a boat to King's Landing first to try to compete for this treasure chest.

Pentos is only a week's voyage away from King's Landing, but it takes more than a month to travel to Volantis. They can only choose King's Landing.

If the players of Pentos were allowed to seize the treasure chest, it would undoubtedly increase Ian's risk factor after revealing his cards to Longma.So even if Ian is not for the reward of the treasure box, but just to limit the opponent's access to development resources, he still has to get the box of King's Landing.

Thinking of this, Ian clicked [King's Landing] in the second bounty task

Then the interface refreshes:

[Bounty Task [-]: Treasure Hunting Game

Mission objective: capture the treasure chest hidden by the sponsor in King's Landing City,

Quest reward: a two-handed Valyrian steel greatsword, 4000 gold dragon
Clue: Flea nest (gift)]

"A clue will be presented after the city is selected?" Ian was a little surprised.

King's Landing is a city with a population of 50, and the qualifier of flea nest really narrowed the target range a lot.

Of course, this is not very helpful for finding treasure chests. The flea nest is a slum in King's Landing, and it is the most humble area in the city. Pigsty, stables, cobbler's shop, wine cellar and brothel are mixed in it.

All the buildings there are built close to the narrow unpaved alleyways, densely packed, and the whole area is like a maze...

Fortunately, there are still 4 clues that can be purchased, Ian thought, and clicked on the points mall.

[Level [-] Mall:
Big money bag (contains 300 silver stags): 1 point
Medium money bag (contains 20 golden dragons): 5 points
Clue (Bounty Task 4) (4/1): [-] point]

Seeing that a clue only costs 1 point, Ian's mood sank. If 4 points are enough to buy all the clues, the probability of other players finding the treasure chest will increase significantly. Maybe he hasn't arrived in King's Landing yet. , the box was carried away.

After all, as long as a player eliminates a player with his own hands, he can get 4 points.

Without hesitation, Ian clicked buy.

[Successful transaction, get the second clue of the bounty task (underground), remaining points: 24]

"Underground? Just these two words for a clue?" Ian rolled his eyes, feeling like he was cheated out of money.

The flea nest in King's Landing is so big that every house may have a basement, so the first clue is almost nonexistent.

Turning his gaze back to the mall interface, Ian was surprised to find that the price of a clue had risen to two points.

Seeing this scene, Ian smiled. For the first time in his life, he was delighted that the prices of things had increased.

But he did have reasons to be happy. After all, if the price of each clue would increase, it would not be so easy for other players to buy up all the clues.

To confirm this, Ian clicks buy again.

[Successful transaction, get the second clue of the bounty task (death), remaining points: 22]

This time the clue is still only two words, and the qualifier 'death' is much more specific than 'underground'.

If the two clues are linked together, the first thing Ian thinks of is 'catacombs'.

This is a customary burial method of the ancestors. There are family catacombs under almost every castle in the north, but for King's Landing, a city with a history of only 300 years that was only started after the Targaryen landing, There is no such thing as catacombs, and Ian is not easy to make a judgment at the moment.

Maybe it's not a catacomb, but simply buried in a cemetery?In this way, the two clues of (underground) and (death) can also be met at the same time.

Unable to get a clear enough idea from it, Ian once again looked at the updated mall interface.

[Clue (Bounty Task 2) (4/4): [-] points]

With 4 points, Ian felt a lot more relaxed.

This price almost stumps most players at this time.

Ian suddenly remembered a sentence he had read on the Internet before, 'expensive is not its shortcoming, it is your shortcoming'.

He felt that this sentence was inexplicably appropriate here. When other players couldn't afford the next few clues but he could afford them, expensiveness became a shining advantage in his eyes.

After clicking Buy again, the third clue appeared before Ian's eyes.

[Successful transaction, get the second clue of the bounty task (ruins), remaining points: 18]

Seeing this word, the first thing Ian thought of was 'Dragon's Lair'.

It was a huge lair-like building on the top of Rhaenys Hill in King's Landing, where the Targaryen family once raised dragons.

After the Dragon's Lair was destroyed, the later rulers of the Targaryen family never dismantled its ruins. To this day, the ruins of the Dragon's Lair still stand on the top of Rhaenys Hill and St. Baelor on the Visenia Hill. The church is far away.

The Dragon's Den is the only building in King's Landing that Ian can think of that fits the clue of [Ruins], but unfortunately, the Dragon's Den is not in the flea nest.

Looking at the last clue that has reached 8 points, even Ian, who is rich and powerful, did not click to buy it easily. He planned to wait until King's Landing to investigate on the spot. If he couldn't find the clue, he would consider buying the last one. a thing.
