Game of Thrones: Royal Game

Chapter 74 King's Landing
Before closing the points mall, Ian suddenly remembered that the last time he tried to enter the second-tier mall, he failed because the total points did not exceed 10 points, so he clicked on the second-tier mall again.

This time he successfully entered the preview:

[Secondary Mall:
Middle gold coin bag (contains 100 gold dragons): 5 points
Large gold coin bag (contains 500 gold dragons): 10 points]

"Damn it? Isn't 5 points in the first-tier malls worth 20 gold dragons?" Ian was taken aback. Although 100 gold dragons is not much for him now, the price difference still made him a little confused.

"The more advanced the system mall, the higher the discount for currency." Annie explained in Ian's mind.

"This is good news." Ian nodded. Although the price of 10 points and 500 golden dragons in the second-tier mall is still too expensive for him, what about the third-tier mall or even the fourth-tier mall?
If 10 points can buy 5000 or more gold dragons in the end, maybe he will really buy some gold coins in the mall.

Thinking, Ian continued to look down.

[One (in the area) self-selected A-level NPC: 10 points
Double Arc Golden Heart Wood Longbow and Quiver: 5 points (exceeds the capacity of the backpack, currently not available for purchase)
Blessing of the Supreme Shepherd God (from the external magic potion created by the high priest of the High Shepherd Temple through the secret method, which has powerful life force and can quickly heal the wounds of a dying person, each person can only use it once): 20 points]

"Supreme Shepherd? Isn't he a scam?" Ian couldn't help covering his face.

He was afraid that there was nothing serious about him, and he would be killed by applying this stuff.
In the original books, the 'Usurper' sent a booze dealer to Vaes Dothraki to assassinate Daenerys after she heard she was pregnant.

Although the assassin's operation failed because Jorah Mormont saw it through, it also angered Khal Drogo.

Khal Drogo is therefore determined to conquer Westeros. In order to raise money to build a fleet, he leads his Kara S into the Lazar area to plunder.

Khal Drogo was wounded while they were fighting another khal's Kara-S outside a Razarin city, and Daenerys had the High Shepherd Priestess Mirri Maz Du Er healed him.

Then Drogo was healed by her
However, strictly speaking, Mirri Maz Duur's original purpose was to avenge her city by killing Drogo, so it seemed inappropriate to pin this quack to the High Faun, Ian thought immediately.

So is this thing a pit planned for players?
If the description of this thing is not a false advertisement, it is simply a mythical item, and it can even be said to be the player's second life.

But if this is an 'easter egg' planned out of some kind of evil taste, it is not an ordinary pit.

Ian didn't choose to buy anything for the time being, but continued to click on the third-level mall.

Then two prompt boxes pop up.

[Third-level mall: open the preview after having 100 points and unlocking the second-level mall]

[Unlock conditions of the second-level mall: spend 10 points in the first-level mall or directly spend [-] points to unlock]

"Well, I almost forgot the setting of 'It is almost impossible for the vast majority of players to obtain resources from the system'." Ian covered his face.

The second-level mall requires 10 points to be spent in the first-level mall to open it, so does the third-level mall need to spend [-] points in the second-level mall?
As far as the low price-performance ratio of the first and second level points mall is concerned, there is basically no difference between spending and wasting points in it.
After exiting the system interface, Ian found a place by the tree and prepared to fall asleep. Only then did he truly experience the feeling of 'Hedge Knight' for the first time.

Thankfully, summer is not over yet, and Ian can't imagine what it would be like to sleep outdoors in winter.

After changing his plan, Ian turned back to the Crossroads Hotel again.

He canceled the task of continuing the hunt at the hotel, and took the two teams of mercenaries from 'Serr Two and Five' Granson and 'Dorne' Denzel on their way to King's Landing.

In the middle, Ian asked Denzel, who had become his new attendant, to go to Duskendale Town to replace Rolle, making him the new caretaker of Sir Darren Grafson, and recalled Rolle to his side.

From the crossroads to King's Landing, Ian and the others hurriedly walked for six days. On the evening of the seventh day, they entered the capital of the Seven Kingdoms located by the Blackwater River through the Gate of the Gods.

Once upon a time, it was just a mountain forest, and only a small number of fishermen lived here.

It wasn't until 300 years ago that Aegon the Conqueror I Targaryen landed at the mouth of the Blackwater River that changed the fate of the place.

Aegon built his first wooden castle, Aegon Castle, with earth and timber on the top of the highest hill here, and after he conquered all the Seven Kingdoms, he ordered his capital to be built here and took It's called King's Landing.

In the following years, the kings of the Targaryen family expanded the city step by step, making it what Ian saw today.

After entering the Gate of the Gods, Ian and the others passed through a bustling urban area, mansions, gazebos, barns, brick warehouses, wooden hotels and market stalls, taverns, cemeteries and brothels, one after another.

Passing through the wide boulevards and commercial districts, the group soon passed Shoemaker's Square.

Not long after, Ian saw the marble wall of St. Baelor's Cathedral on the top of the Visenya Hill, and seven crystal towers stood out of it.On the other side of the Reynis Hill, there was a huge ruined dome that had collapsed. Ian knew that there was the remains of the dragon's lair.

If you go east from this intersection, you can reach the flea nest by crossing the silent nun street, but Ian doesn't plan to go directly to the flea nest, he has to prepare a suit for himself and others first.

After all, Flea Nest is a slum, and it is understandable that there are mercenaries wandering in it. You, a young nobleman, wandering around with a master knight who has polished his armor, is somewhat insulting to the IQ of other players.

Therefore, after Ian asked Sir Two-Five Boys to bring two-thirds of his troops to Linhe Street to find the tavern, he took Case, Rolle and a few others to the west and entered Steel Street. Most blacksmiths are here.

The person Ian is looking for lives on the top of the hill. His name is Tob Mott, and he is the best blacksmith in King's Landing and even the whole of Westeros, at least that's what he said.

The main reason Ian came to him was to order a batch of plate armor for ordinary mercenaries.

Plate armor is a torso armor composed of iron sheets riveted on the fabric. The reason why it is called a coat of plates is actually just a matter of translation. Its essence is actually more similar to that of the Great Heavenly Dynasty. Cloth face armor rather than the plate armor it carries in its name.

Ian chose plate armor for two main reasons.

One is that it is different from the bucket structure of the plate armor. The structure of the plate armor can be customized into a wasp waist style. When he chooses to rivet the iron sheet inside the cloth surface, your opponent will not be able to judge the quality of your armor. Quality, they are likely to put it on the spot as the inferior armor that ordinary mercenaries can also have.

The second is that high-quality plate armor will not lose to plate armor in defense against less powerful enemies, and the strength of the player in the early stage can be regarded as 'not so strong'.
