Game of Thrones: Royal Game

Chapter 85
Ian fell into silence, and he couldn't find the truth with these clues alone.

If he could give him Bonn's body, or let him go to see the scene himself, he would definitely find more clues, but neither of these were obviously impossible.

The current situation can barely be regarded as the enemy's secret. If Ian asks the golden robe to ask for Bonn's body or personally inspects the scene, once these actions are discovered by the mysterious player, Ian will come to the light.

Compared to that kind of result, Ian would rather let the other party kill him in the flea nest, and find his own treasure in the dragon's lair, instead of going head-to-head with the other party for the time being.

After sending the two messengers away, Ian did not personally participate in the work of cleaning up the collapsed boulder as he did during the day, but found a corner alone, thinking about what happened in the flea nest.

If the killing of 'Bait' Bonn was singled out, the most suspicious person would undoubtedly be the landlord.

Although the mercenaries saw the huge wound caused by the ax on Bonn's chest, since Ian did not get the body, the wound may not actually be a real fatal wound.

If the old landlord tried to poison Bonn, put his body flat on the ground, and then slashed with all his strength with his felling ax high up in both hands, with the blessing of gravitational potential energy, he could completely achieve the slashing effect caused by a mature man in battle.

Unfortunately, Bonn's death is not an isolated case.

Since there have been several cases in which people with the initial characteristics of players were killed in recent days, the only ones who did it were the players.

Ian knows that it is normal for players to have the combat power to instantly kill an ordinary mercenary at this point in time, because for those players who have very rich combat experience in their previous lives, a slight increase in the page value can give them Strength brings a qualitative leap.

But Ian couldn't understand how the other party avoided his three groups of mercenaries who were staring at Bonn's courtyard from different directions, successfully sneaked into the yard, killed Bonn, and then retreated unscathed.

Could it be that the other party knew the locations of my three groups in advance?Ian suddenly thought.

If that's the case, it's really easy for him to find a way to avoid the surveillance of these people
For example, before sneaking in, let the accomplices make some big moves nearby to attract attention, and turn in when the mercenaries' eyes are attracted.

Anyway, it only takes a moment to climb over the wall, and there are many ways to do this.

But if the opponent really saw through the actions of the 'Naughty Duanzi' team, he should know that Bonn was just a 'bait'.

Normally speaking, he should find a way to hide himself and find an opportunity to wipe out the 'Nuddun' team, instead of killing the 'bait' cast by the 'Nunduan', so as to scare the snake away.

In Ian's opinion, a guy who can cast a net in a flea nest and successfully kill so many players without being seen by anyone should not do such an act of 'lowering intelligence', so the other party did not notice the 'meat' Duanzi' team, it is more likely that Bonn is just regarded as a lone player.

But in that case, the team of 'Naughty Duanzi' couldn't find the opponent's trace through mental calculation or carelessness, so the opponent's ability is a bit amazing.

I just hope that the group of players who just came from Pentos can touch the 'net' in the flea nest, so that I have a chance to make a profit, Ian couldn't help thinking.

The time came to the fourth day after Ian entered the dragon's lair.

After a day of hard work yesterday, although Ian and the others failed to clean out even a basement, they have gradually mastered the skills, and today's operation efficiency is much higher.

Until that afternoon, they finally successfully cleared the first basement, but unfortunately, they did not find a tunnel inside.

Seeing that the progress was so slow, Ian didn't bother to keep it a secret from the sailors on Shayala's Dance. Before the evening of the same day, he summoned all the sailors who were on standby in Linhe Road to the Dragon Cave.

In order for the sailors to do this unlucky coolie together, Ian paid them 50 gold dragons in advance as a deposit.

In this way, the time came to the sixth day after Ian entered the dragon's lair.

In the past two days, several players have died, and the number of remaining players has reached 64.

In the past two days, two more suspected players entered King's Landing from the ship from Pentos. Sir Granson, who was in charge of the port, had to reduce the monitoring of the earliest group of people staying on the Street of Silent Sisters in order to monitor these three groups at the same time. The player's hands.

But it's a pity that the two new players quickly appeared as moths.

One of them found the man Granson sent to follow him and managed to throw him off, while the other was killed that night in exactly the same way as the 'bait' Bonn who Ian had killed before. .

According to the mercenary Granson had sent to follow him, he hadn't seen anyone enter the guy's rented house at all.

Faced with this situation, Ian completely stopped fighting for the control of the flea nest with the other party before the results came out. Under Ian's order, the entire "Naughty Duanzi" team began to die down, and did not spread any new information. The bait is just standing still.

In addition, regarding the source of the "curse of the Stranger", the people under the "Hunting Duanzi" have not found out the reason for it for a long time.

This made Ian feel anxious. After these two days of thinking, he has found the reason why he is so sensitive to the word 'Stranger'.

Because the Stranger is the god representing death, he also fits the two system clues of [death] and [sacredness].

Although it was probably just his own overthinking, Ian still sent Bronn to the flea nest to investigate the matter.

Anyway, his safety in the Dragon's Lair is guaranteed, so he wants to see if this 'World's Number One Tool Man of Ice and Fire' can bring him any surprises.

In short, in the past few days, all the news outside the dragon's lair was bad, and the inside of the dragon's lair was not much better.

Ian and the others are basically progressing one basement a day in the Dragon Cave, and they have cleaned up the third one today, but they still haven't been able to find the entrance to the basement that Ian guessed.

As there are fewer and fewer [Temple Basement] left, Ian's heart is getting heavier and heavier. If his guess is wrong, the time he wasted in the dragon's lair will make him lose his chance.

On the afternoon of the eighth day when he came to Dragon Cave, as the penultimate basement was cleaned up, Ian eagerly stepped into it, preparing to find the authentic place by himself as he had done with every basement before.

However, at this moment, the sentinel who was in charge of guarding outside the dragon's lair ran in to report that Bronn had returned and captured a person.

This made Ian a little confused. He didn't know what kind of mess Bronn had made, so he could only temporarily put aside the inspection of the basement and go out to check the situation first.
