Game of Thrones: I became a crown prince for a day.

Chapter 644: Lannino Returns

Lizard Islands, a gathering place.

A calm bay is adjacent to a magnificent palace on a towering cliff.

Hundreds of dignitaries, mercenaries, and slave owners from the Three Women's Kingdoms gathered together.

A burly man with a black beard sat cross-legged on a wool carpet, arguing with two other men.

"The King on the Iron Throne dies with his son, and he will burn us all to be buried with him."

"You want to surrender? You can try."

"Stop talking nonsense. We made a lot of money from the tapestries and perfumes we sold to Quarles..."

As the conversation went on, the atmosphere suddenly became heated and the topic turned to maritime trade.

As long as you can make money, any risk is worth it.

Blackbeard grinned, revealing his full set of white teeth: "I heard that the Red Sea Monster is dead. He deserved it for looting the wealth of an entire town."

"He was too arrogant to return to the Iron Islands to die."

The mustache with short purple dyed hair is quite a pity.

What a good pawn, but unfortunately he is too selfish.

“If you don’t know how to share your profits, you will die holding your gold.”

A Myrish slave master with white curly hair sneered, "But the dragons of the Iron Throne will come again. How should we deal with them?"

"Escape?"

"Bullshit, business has to be done."

"Then let's fight."

"Idiot, can you withstand the dragon flame?"

Everyone was talking at the same time, and the three people in charge all had gloomy faces.

The rest of the people sat together and watched with smiles.

The continent of Sothoryos is desolate and remote, and the Basilisk Islands are even more uninhabited.

If we hide in the stone cave, how thick can the dragon flame burn through?
"We have already retreated from the disputed area to the southern continent. We must not retreat again."

Blackbeard slapped his thigh in indignation.

"Yes, at worst we can just fight a war."

The man with a mustache had sharp eyes and won applause from the whole audience.

Women and children can go to brothels to hang out, but none of these stinky men would spend money to get in through the back door.

In order to continue to live a life of plenty, the Kingdom of Three Daughters must be rebuilt.

"Okay, that's decided!"

The white-haired slave master drew out his dagger and stood up.

He was waiting for his men's cheers, which would greatly boost their morale.

boom--

As soon as the hairy feet stepped on the carpet, a thunderous sound that shook the earth was heard outside.

What followed was a scorching hot breeze that smelled of ash.

"what happened?"

Everyone's face changed drastically and they hurriedly got up.

"dragon!!"

At this time, screams of fear were heard outside the palace.

Over the bay.

A giant dragon as black as coal was flying freely, spewing out ash-like dark green dragon flames, burning every ship in sight.

Soon, thick smoke billowed below, and countless pirates from the Three Women's Kingdom jumped into the sea.

"That palace, Glutton."

Rhaegar's black robe fluttered, and his purple eyes stared at the foreign buildings on the cliff.

"Hiss-"

The Glutton roared loudly, gliding with its huge body close to the sea surface, and suddenly dived up when it got close to the cliff.

Then, dark green dragon flames burst out, and a strong wind swept across everything.

Boom——

The dome collapsed instantly and the stone walls melted under the dragon's flames.

Rhaegar's eyes were cold, and he gently patted the dragon's back: "Don't let go of any stationed island."

The Glutton's pale green vertical pupils were filled with murderous intent. It spun in the air and soared out of the bay, casting its shadow over every inch of the Lizard Islands.

People and dragons are in tune with each other and influence each other's emotions.

When the hatred of the rider is buried deep in his heart, the terrifying dragon-eating species always wants to vent its anger.

……

Volantis.

Dongcheng District, above the black wall.

call out--

A crossbow arrow was shot out and hit the bull's eye of the scarecrow from dozens of meters away.

"Feeling good today?"

Baelon came over wearing a red cloak and carrying another crossbow.

"It's okay, just hard work and practice."

Benilla had no expression on her face, and quickly loaded the crossbow with arrows with both hands.

call out--

Baeron shot an arrow, which hit the parapet and bounced away. He said speechlessly, "It seems that I don't have any talent for shooting."

It seems that my father doesn't use longbow or crossbow.

Benilla glanced at him and continued to train with the trigger.

Two months have passed since Eamon's accident.

Many major events have taken place on the continent of Westeros, on both sides of the Strait of Mir, and throughout the world.

The direct line of the Baratheon family of Storm's End was exterminated, the ironborn ravaging the Westerlands, the Reach, and the Riverlands were wiped out, and the war on the continent of Essos stopped...

and the Iron Throne's massive attack on the Three Women's Kingdom pirates in the Basilisk Islands.

"Hiss!!"

A loud and rough dragon roar resounded through the clouds, and a majestic scarlet dragon flew out of the port and entered the Summer Sea with the fleet.

Benilla looked up and said in a daze, "Grandma and Grandpa went to the war."

The old couple officially stationed in the Basilisk Islands, ending the protracted naval battle.

"Father set out early in the morning to take the lead in clearing out the pirates who were resisting stubbornly."

Baeron put down his crossbow, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes.

Since the Battle of the Iron Islands, great uncle Daemon and third uncle Aemond One-Eye returned to King's Landing and rushed to the battlefield on the continent of Sothoryos one after another.

He and the sisters Maekar and Benilla were left in Volantis and were not allowed to go out at will.

"Your father was a remarkable man. He conquered a country with one man and one dragon."

Benila continued to train and sighed, "Burning so many people to death was also a way to vent the frustration in my heart."

The almost massacre-like dragon flame washing over the ground caused enormous panic to the outside world.

While in Volantis, the condemnation statements from various city-states and faiths reached their ears.

But he is better than her father. When that man is in a bad mood, he will become annoying and exclude all those who care about him.

"He is the king of a country and cannot be seen as weak."

Belron sat on the wall and chatted with the other person silently.

He was a lobbyist hired by Rhaena.

The death of her fiancé came as a huge shock to Bernila.

The former hides in a corner and cries every month, and the latter sneaks out in various ways to seek revenge.

He is currently imprisoned in Volantis, and is obsessed with archery training.

If this continues, people will be exhausted.

"One day, I will avenge him." Benila knew his intention very well, and asked suddenly: "It was a wild dragon that attacked him, right?"

Baerlon was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.

My father patrolled the Broken Ship Bay and both sides of the strait, and from the wreckage of the trickster that was salvaged, there was no doubt that it was attacked by a wild dragon.

But there is no way of knowing how big the wild dragon is or where it is hiding.

Besides, Yuewu is too small.

"I'm going to eat, don't bother me."

Benilla put down her crossbow and walked down the stairs somewhat unhappily.

Moon Dancer has grown into a dragon, old enough to take part in a war of blood and fire.

Whether it was the disguised house arrest by his father or the king's cousin, or Belon's hesitation, it was like a sharp knife stabbing into his heart.

"that……"

Baerlon was quite helpless, and finally let out a sigh.

My father was right, they are still young, and there will be a wider world for them when they grow up.

Everyone wants to avenge Aemon, but the family cannot bear the trauma of losing another dragon rider.

……

into the night.

Lizard Islands, Mud Island.

Bonfires illuminated the mosquito-infested desert island, and soldiers cut down trees to build fortifications.

"Our King is gone."

Rhaenys walked on the beach, complaining to her husband about nothing.

Collis patrolled the coast and the fleet formed the first line of defense to surround the island.

There are three rebuilt gathering places in the Kingdom of Three Daughters, located on Axe Island, Tear Island, and Nas Island.

Rhaegar went to Axe Isle, Daemon and Aemond went to Naath Isle, and the most crucial Isle of Tears was left to the couple.

Outside the Island of Tears is the widely distributed Lizard Islands. If you want to attack the gathering place, you must first break through the defense of the islands.

The fleet of House Velaryon is invincible and is naturally used in frontal confrontations on the battlefield.

"He burned thousands of people to death today, which is higher than the death toll in many past wars."

Rhaenys sounded unhappy.

War is a cruel thing, and the smell of burning corpses keeps coming into my nose.

“Are you still upset about Storm’s End, Rhaenys?”

Collis frowned and explained, "You know, we are at war now. The Iron Islands have more deaths."

"Yes, the nobles of the Westerlands and the Reach applauded."

Rhaenys turned her head away, not paying attention to her husband's lecture.

No matter how much is said, the importance of House Baratheon is unquestionable.

He served the Iron Throne for over a hundred years, but it was burned to ashes by his nephew.

That was her second mother's home, and the children there were all her blood relatives.

"Hold your attitude and don't let your emotions sway you."

Collis looked serious and said, "If you make a mistake, you must atone for it. No one wants to lose their child."

After learning that his eldest son Lannino was assassinated, he almost wanted to kill Prince Cooren.

For this reason, it was indeed done.

Listening to her husband's earnest teachings, Rhaenys closed her eyes and nodded silently: "You are right, Corliss."

She did not blame Rhaegar for his cruelty.

But the successive deaths of her son and daughter made her fear the death of her loved ones.

When Rhaegar lost a son, he also passed on to her the pain of severing the Baratheon family line.

"Be more open-minded."

Collis had no choice but to put his arm around his wife's shoulders.

The old couple took a walk in the middle of the night, comforting each other.

woo-

Suddenly, a low horn sounded through the night sky.

Collis's face changed and he said alertly: "No, this is not the sound of the patrol ship."

"Get ready!"

Rhaenys broke free from his embrace and ran towards the camp.

Melias stayed on the top of the island, digesting the livestock fed by the soldiers.

Rumbling--

Pirate ships appeared on the sea, and catapults threw burning fireballs.

"Quick! Board the warship!"

Collis had a gloomy look on his face. He put on his armor and boarded the ship first.

The Lizard Islands are an unfamiliar place, so pirates must have attacked the patrol ship and then launched a surprise attack on Mud Island.

On the sea.

"Attack, capture the sea snake alive!"

The Blackbeard pirate laughed loudly, and the big ship was the first to land, charging with scimitars raised.

There were still traces of burnt spots on his black curly hair.

If one survives, there will be future fortunes.

He deserved to be successful tonight and take down a big shot from House Velaryon.

Rumbling--

The catapults fired wildly, breaking the camp's line and creating great convenience for the pirates' landing operations.

Under the dark night sky, flames shot straight into the sky.

Melias lay on the top of the mountain, closed his eyes and dozed off lazily, digesting the food in his stomach.

Discovering the war outside, it opened its vertical pupils to look for the driver.

There were too many people and the scene was chaotic.

For a moment it was unclear where the driver was.

Rumbling--

"Follow me and capture Corliss Velaryon alive!"

The pirates came out in full force and swarmed onto Mud Island like ants.

Collis was standing on the deck of the Sea Serpent and was blocked before he could even get out to sea.

The pirates threw out their grappling hooks and swarmed aboard the ship to engage in a bloody fight.

"Damn it, hold on!"

Collis fought bravely, waiting for his wife to come to his rescue with the dragon.

"Die, old man!"

Several mercenaries broke through the encirclement and rushed forward with a grim smile.

Collis' pupils shrank and he raised his long-handled scimitar to resist.

As he got older, he ran out of energy and soon fell into a disadvantage.

As they fought and retreated, it was clear that the front line on the Mud Island had completely collapsed, and the bonfire turned into a fire burning everywhere.

Dang clang——

The knife hit the armor, forcing Collis to stagger back seven or eight meters.

When he turned around, the mercenaries had already rushed in front of him.

"Hiss!"

Suddenly, a sharp dragon roar sounded, echoing on the beach where flames were everywhere.

"Dragon Flame!"

With a shout in High Valyrian, a giant light silver dragon flew out of the night sky and breathed dragon flames around the Sea Serpent, which was surrounded by enemies.
