Dominate the Game of Thrones with Mount and Blade

Chapter 76 White Deer

Everything went as planned.

On the morning of the second day, Arthur said goodbye to the team heading north at the Gate of the Gods in King's Landing.

Ninety-seven free mercenaries, the accountant girl Hayley, and a caravan carrying two hundred sets of iron armor formed the main force of the team, and Desmond, the coach of Riverrun, was responsible for leading them to the Moulin Rouge.

The letter to the butler Amber was also handed to Desmond, and Amber would arrange for those who arrived at that time.

The giant horse Red Hare was taken away by the team heading north. Its speed was too slow and it was not suitable for going south.

The giant hammer was also taken north. Because Tob thought that the giant hammer was for decorating the house when he made plate armor for Arthur, he did not install a fixed point on the plate armor.

The golden Guandao has a fixed point on the back.

So if Arthur went south with the giant hammer, he would have to hold the giant hammer in his hand all the way. Not to mention whether the mount Lu could bear it, even Arthur himself would feel tired.

Patrick's father, Lord Jason Mallister, was also in the team. He arrived at King's Landing before the tournament and participated in the lance competition, but was eliminated on the first day.

With a great noble like him, and the safe road along the Kings Road, and nearly a hundred mercenaries, Arthur was very relieved.

I don't think anyone would want to take advantage of this team.

The team heading south was much more complicated.

There were more than 20 followers of the brothers Horace and Hobber, Anguy and 13 Dornish spearmen, more than a hundred Blood Troupe, and Arthur riding "Dilu" and four followers.

The letter of the Knight of Flowers had also been written, one of which was carried by Arthur, and several others were sent to the Rose family's castle High Court by raven.

Arthur won two championships and 60,000 gold dragons at the tournament in King's Landing. He spent more than 3,000 gold dragons on making plate armor, a giant hammer, a Guandao, 200 sets of iron armor, King's Landing's consumption for more than a week, and the down payment for hired mercenaries.

Since he brought more than 2,000 gold dragons when he came, he still had more than 59,000 gold dragons.

After leaving 58,000 gold dragons to Loras in King's Landing, Arthur set off with more than 1,600 gold dragons.

They first crossed the Blackwater River to the south bank, and then went south along the Rose Avenue.

The Royal Forest, the second largest primeval forest in Westeros, is the first challenge that the team going south needs to face.

Although there are some small inns along the Rose Avenue through the Royal Forest, they are far apart, so they need to bring enough food and water.

Fortunately, there are 244 horses in the team, and there are only 153 people, so there is no need to worry about transportation capacity.

The problem of food and water was solved in a small town entering the Royal Forest.

At Arthur's insistence, the group set out without resting in the town.

This made some veterans of the Blood Troupe complain, but for the sake of Arthur's golden Guandao, they obediently accepted the employer's order.

...

The third day in the Royal Forest.

"Take a break, Lord Arthur." Horace suggested.

He was really a little overwhelmed.

"That's right, there is less than half a day's journey to get out of the Royal Forest. Let everyone rest for a while, fill their stomachs, drink water, and you can get out in one breath." Ange said.

Arthur looked back and saw that most people in the team looked grim, so they waited for a break.

It took most of the horses to gallop from King's Landing to the town outside the forest, and the three days of fast travel to the Royal Forest. The bumps on the horseback made these men unbearable.

They couldn't understand Arthur's eagerness, and now they were emotional.

"Then take a good rest. You guys take a rest. I'll go hunt some wild animals and we'll have a good meal."

The food on the road was all hard bread, dried meat and freshly cooked wheat porridge that were replenished outside the town. Arthur himself felt that the taste of meat was so bland in his mouth that he couldn't taste it.

Man is iron and meat is steel. If you don't eat it for a meal, you will be greedy.

"Great."

"Long live Lord Arthur."

"Bring some wild deer."

The group of people cheered immediately. Arthur's open-mindedness made them feel better immediately.

Most people turned over and dismounted, found a flat place in the open space between the giant trees and lay down to rest.

Except for the two brothers of the Redwyn family and Arthur and Jules, the team was all civilians, and they had all done the behavior of hedge knights. Sleeping in the open space was very common.

Hedge knights are the folk collective name for free knights, wandering warriors, and mercenaries. Because this group of people are reluctant to stay in the hotel, they often sleep under the trees and by the fence for a night.

Arthur asked a few people who looked energetic to be on guard, and then went hunting with a few good players.

Half an hour later.

"Hey, why can't we see wild boars in this forest?" Ange wondered.

"Maybe the smell of Mr. Arthur's wild boar killer made them hide." Hopper, one of the twins, explained.

He was much more energetic than his brother, and he also came to hunt.

Ange asked: "What is a wild boar killer?"

Hopper then explained in detail Arthur's deeds of eliminating wild boars in Harrenhal.

This made Ange and several other mercenaries marvel.

"Lord Arthur's bravery is beyond our imagination."

"An ordinary war hammer can kill a wild boar, so wouldn't the giant hammer be hard to beat in the entire continent?"

"I think the huge Mountain can fight with you, at least he can withstand the beating."

Arthur agreed with this statement: "If the Mountain wears chain mail and full plate armor, he might be able to withstand my giant hammer. If I fight him again, it will be a matter of who can't stand the beating first."

The small conflict with the Mountain in the tournament gave Arthur a clear understanding of his own strength.

Weaker than the Mountain, but not by much.

And because of the added agility, Arthur is much more flexible than the Mountain.

The Mountain can probably swing that giant hammer, but it's limited to swinging.

After he was clumsy and took a heavy weapon like the giant hammer, he had no time to change his moves in the battle, so he chose a much lighter two-handed sword.

This made him as flexible as an ordinary plate armor knight.

Arthur's advantage is that he can still be flexible and agile while holding the giant hammer.

So now, his combat power should be equal to that of the Mountain.

If he adds the advantages of physical strength and injury resistance, the Mountain can't survive him.

In short, Arthur was looking forward to the next battle with Gregor Clegane.

"Hush, there's a white deer."

As a top archer, Ange had amazing eyesight, and he spotted a white deer in the distance.

Then several people slowly gathered around, and at the right distance, Ange drew his bow and shot an arrow, but missed.

But coincidentally, the white deer actually rushed towards Arthur.

Then it died under the sharp blade of the new moon.

"What a rare color, I don't know what it means." Someone sighed.

"Disaster and fortune, who knows?"

Arthur firmly believed that this was a good omen.

Baratheon lost his deer, and Arthur got it.
