Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory.

Chapter 245 Wedding Invitation

It has been more than ten days since Nymeria left Miracle Port by boat. Except for the first few days when Augustus clamored for his mother, Augustus seemed to have forgotten his mother every day. They were all happily playing with the two shadow lynx cubs that Glory had brought.

Linde spent every day in his study or in the meeting hall of Redemption Town, dealing with various documents submitted by the Cabinet, the Ministry of Interior, and the Ministry of Military Affairs.

Unlike Nymeria, who handles every detail personally, Lind obviously has no intention of wasting his time on these chores. He carefully divides all the affairs according to priority, except for those that the cabinet cannot handle at all and must be dealt with personally. He will only handle matters that need to be handled, such as matters involving the security of the territory, or receiving some visitors with special status.

"Lord Vilas, why did you come to my territory?" When his subordinates informed him of Vilas's visit, Linde felt surprised.

Because Willas and the Highgarden Godswood are almost bound, they cannot leave at will.

However, after seeing Vilas himself, Lind already knew why Vilas was able to leave Highgarden, because in his eyes, Green Hand Garth had completely integrated with Vilas, just like the movie in his previous life. In the series, Bran and the Three-Eyed Raven are in a similar state of fusion.

This also made him couldn't help but compare the two, and found that they were surprisingly similar. They were both heirs of a country's guardian duke. Both were paralyzed, and both were fused with an ancient being. At the same time, they were both heirs. Make it your mission to destroy the White Walkers.

Vilas looked at Linde calmly and said, "I am going to the Great Wall of Despair, so I want to meet you, Lord Linde."

Linde frowned and said, "Are you just going to the Great Wall to take a look, or..."

"I probably won't leave the Great Wall." Vilas replied seriously.

Linde was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Your Majesty, Duke, do you allow you to do this?"

Vilas smiled and said: "If you are not allowed, I probably won't meet you."

Linde persuaded: "With all due respect, Lord Vilas, your decision is a bit too hasty. To put it bluntly, in your current state, what effect can you have by going to the Great Wall? Staying in Gao Ting is constantly sending qualified warriors to the Great Wall, isn't this more useful than you wearing a black robe?"

Vilas's smile faded and his expression became serious. He was silent for a moment and said, "Something happened to the guy outside the wall. He fell into a deep sleep. I don't know if he can wake up. Once this long summer is over, If he fails to wake up, then the Great Wall of Despair will become the front line, and I must sit on the Great Wall to ensure that nothing happens to the Great Wall."

"What happened to the Three-Eyed Crow?" Lind was stunned for a moment when he heard Vilas' words.

Although the Three-Eyed Crow is outside the Great Wall, at the forefront of contact with the White Walkers, he is not without a place to protect himself. Not to mention the power of his domain, even the White Walkers cannot approach him. Only the children of the forest who live with him They are enough to protect his safety.

You must know that the real children of the forest are not as weak as in the previous series. Although not every one of them has god-like magic like a spark, their long lifespan is enough to help them improve their combat skills to the point of inhumanity. Coupled with the magic and other powers they have mastered, and with the help of familiar terrain, they can easily block the invasion of the White Walkers.

With such a powerful child of the forest protecting him, it was hard for Linde to imagine that anyone could hurt the Three-Eyed Crow.

"Who hurt the Three-Eyed Crow? A White Walker?" Lind asked doubtfully.

Vilas shook his head and said: "I don't know, I just sensed that the breath of the Three-Eyed Crow became very weak, and..." As he said, he paused and said: "He is asking me for help. "

When Linde heard this, he also felt the urgency of the matter. You must know that the relationship between Vilas and the Three-Eyed Crow cannot be said to be incompetent, but can also be regarded as mutual enemies. After all, most of Vilas's current paralysis should be The fault lies with the Three-Eyed Crow, and now the enemy has taken the initiative to ask him for help. This is enough to show that the situation of the Three-Eyed Crow is already very bad.

After understanding the situation, Linde asked in a deep voice: "What do you need me to do? Can I accompany you to the north?".

"No, no need!" Vilas shook his head and said: "It's not yet time, I can feel that his accident should have nothing to do with the White Walkers. Now that we have entered the Long Summer, the White Walkers will not go south."

Linde asked again: "Then what do you need me to do?"

Willas was silent for a moment and said: "Help me take care of Arianne. If something happens to her in the future, I hope you can help her in time to protect her from harm."

Lind was also surprised when he heard Willas's request. He originally thought that Willas wanted him to take care of the Tyrell family, but he didn't expect that he wanted to take care of Arianne Martell.

It can be seen that Villas was truly attracted to Princess Arianne back then. If nothing unexpected happened, Princess Arianne might have really married Villas, but it was a pity that nothing happened.

Lind did not refuse this request. In fact, even if Willas didn't tell her, if something happened to Princess Arianne, he would still help her because Arianne was an important partner of Lind's.

Compared to the brooding and scheming Prince Doran, Arianne Martell's straightforward character is actually easier to get along with.

Princess Arianne has participated in the trade between Summer Hall and Dorne over the years. She is also a senior member of the Miracle Chamber of Commerce. She has the right to sell part of the Seven Mysterious Medicines in Dorne, and has gained a lot of wealth through this. .

Also because she has a large amount of funds, Princess Arianne has gathered a large number of supporters around her and has considerable power. She is also using her power to influence some of Prince Doran's decisions.

Obviously Willas also saw Princess Arianne's plan and could predict what would happen in the future. In his opinion, it was impossible for Princess Arianne to defeat Prince Doran, so he prepared a plan for Arianne in advance. The princess looks for a way out.

Willas arrived suddenly and left in a hurry. After getting Lind's promise that he would take care of Princess Arianne, he left immediately without giving Lind a chance to ask any other questions.

A few days after Vilas left, Garland also came to Summer Hall to visit Lind.

After so many years, Garland has matured a lot, and all kinds of knight training all year round have made him resolute and strong. He no longer looks like he was chubby before, and the big beard on his face makes him look a little more mature. majesty.

Although Garland has now become the heir of Highgarden, there is no smile on his face. Obviously, Vilas voluntarily put on the black robe and went to the Great Wall, which brought him a big blow.

"Did Villas say anything to you when he came to see you?" Garland and Linde's relationship does not require any red tape, they talked like ordinary friends. "He asked me to take care of Princess Arianne." Lind said matter-of-factly.

Garland was stunned and asked, "Didn't you mention us?"

Lind explained for Vilas: "I think he felt that Highgarden didn't need my care, so he didn't say anything."

However, this explanation did not satisfy Garland. He complained rather: "What a cruel guy! He gave up everything and his family casually and went to a ghost place like the Great Wall of Despair. Is it possible that his family is not as good as aliens?" Is it important that the ghost comes? Besides, what’s the use if he’s gone? Could it be that the White Walkers are here, fighting the White Walkers in a wheelchair or being carried..."

Garland, who had no one to vent to in Highgarden, now spoke out his thoughts without any scruples. Linde did not speak, but quietly stood aside as a listener.

Although Garland complained about Vilas from beginning to end, you can still feel his love for his brother from the lines of his words. For him, the duke inheritance obtained in this way was very painful. If it weren't for Luo Lars Tyrell is really not suitable. Maybe he will voluntarily give up his right to inherit the duke like Willas.

After listening for a while, Garland seemed to feel that he had talked too much, so he took the initiative to listen, picked up the cup and water bottle on the table, and poured himself a glass of water.

Lind waited for Garland to take a sip of water and asked, "You came to my place just to complain about Lord Vilas?"

"No." Garland shook his head and said, "I'm here to invite you to my wedding."

Linde was stunned and said, "With Miss Leonie of the Fossoway family?"

"Yes." Garland nodded and added, "In addition, Mr. Joel Flower is also getting married. He hopes that you can attend his wedding."

"Master Joel is also getting married?" Linde was a little surprised when he heard this. In his memory, Joel had always been the image of a prodigal son. Taverns and brothels were his home. Such a person would actually get married, which made him curious. :"with who?"

"Lady Millis of Myr," Garlan replied.

When Linde heard such a title, he was stunned and asked: "Which powerful person in Myr does it belong to..."

"None of them." Garland shook his head.

Linde immediately thought of a possibility and guessed: "Prostitute?"

Garland nodded and said: "To be precise, she is the Madam. She has a brothel, a hotel and a tavern in the town outside Highgarden City. She also has three manors and farms in the suburbs. She is very rich, very rich, and very beautiful, very Beautiful." After saying that, he paused and said, "Master Joel is not worthy of her."

Garland's words made Lind a little curious about Mrs. Millis, so he asked Garland about the time of his and Joel's wedding, and said that he would attend their wedding in person.

Later, Linde discussed the trade between Summer Hall and Highgarden with Garland. As the Duke's heir, Garland signed several trade agreements with Linde on behalf of Highgarden before leaving the castle.

In the following days, Linde was preparing for his trip to Highgarden. Unlike before, this time Linde was planning to take Augustus with him so that he could meet with the dignitaries of the Seven Kingdoms.

If it were just the wedding of the second son of the Guardian of the South and the Duke of Highgarden, it would not attract the attention of the dignitaries of the Seven Kingdoms. But now Garland's identity is different. He is the future Duke of Highgarden, so his wedding cannot be treated simply. , I believe that all the nobles of the seven kingdoms will be present. Even if they are unable to be present, they should send people with high enough status to participate.

Because of this, such an occasion was just the right time to introduce Augustus to the dignitaries of the Seven Kingdoms.

Of course, Linde going to Highgarden alone and going to Highgarden with a little guy are not comparable. Linde had to pay attention to the safety of the little guy. He just couldn't arrange too many people to protect the little guy. After all, he was going to participate. A wedding is not a war. One hundred people is already the limit.

Although according to Lind's own idea, the people who protected Augustus were all nuns of redemption, silent monks and the chosen ones, because they had no problem with their loyalty after passing the trial, but Nymeria had already transferred the redemption when she left. Everyone in the church was taken away, so all Lind could use were the ten nuns of salvation and the silent monks in the castle.

Moreover, Garland's wedding was a noble wedding, and it was not appropriate that all the people he brought there were from the church. Therefore, in addition to the nuns and monks who specially protected Augustus, Linde also came from Redemption Town and Miracle Port. Dozens of formal knights were recruited to join the wedding team.

Although there were still more than ten days before the wedding, Lind couldn't rush there in a hurry, so he decided to hit the road in advance, taking the Bone Road through his newly built Ridge City in the Dorne Frontier and heading directly to Highgarden.

However, when he was about to leave, the movement in the castle's incubator disrupted his plan, delaying his trip to Highgarden for a few days.

Linde built an incubation room specifically for dragon eggs in the castle. In the past, only one dragon egg was placed. Later, after the long-winged dragon eggs were transported from Pentos, those long-winged dragon eggs were also placed in the incubation room. , taken care of by dedicated personnel.

After Lind came back, he would spend some time in the incubation room every day, using the magic of the lost knight to nourish these long-winged dragon eggs with the power of dragon runes.

Originally, Linde estimated that it would take at least one or two months for the eggs to hatch. Now it seems that his estimate was wrong, or the method of cultivating dragon eggs with the power of dragon runes is too effective.

When Lind received the news and came to the incubation room, a long-winged dragon had already hatched from the egg. It did not eat its own eggshell as he thought, but directly bit the people in the incubation room beforehand. The meat and bones prepared are very vicious, and people around will immediately make attacking movements when they get close.

However, when Linde came to the incubation room, the long-winged dragon that had been acting very ferocious just now gave up eating, rolled and crawled in front of Linde, raised its head, and made a sound to Linde. Crying, everyone around could clearly feel that this long-winged dragon was close to Linde.

Linde knew very well that when he cultivated the long-winged dragon egg through the power of the dragon rune, he had already established a connection with the long-winged dragon. This connection was not a blood connection, but a deeper spiritual connection, which was somewhat Like a spiritual connection with glory and glutton.

Linde picked up the long-winged dragon and put it in front of his eyes to take a look. Because it was just born, the long-winged dragon still looked very ugly, like a plucked chick.

At this moment, other long-winged dragons broke out of their shells one after another, and for a while, piercing cries came one after another in the incubation room.
