Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory

Chapter 192 Position Succession

Lind felt that he was a little unlucky. First, Jon inherited the title and resigned from him, and now Daisy did the same. He had some doubts that all his men, except those with poor backgrounds, seemed to have the potential to inherit the title. .

Jon's incident was an accident. The Bulwe family was not an important role in the book of the previous life, so he didn't even know where Blackcrown City was beforehand, and it was even less likely that he knew that Jon could inherit the title and castle.

But Daisy was something he had seriously thought about. He knew very well that Big Bear would commit a crime and leave, and Daisy's mother would inherit Bear Island. He also considered using Daisy's relationship to build a port on Bear Island and connect it with the outside world. Savages trade.

If necessary, Bear Island can be used as a springboard to transport savages from outside the Great Wall to the south to fill the population vacancies in their own territories.

Or they could establish a forward base on Bear Island to monitor the movements outside the Great Wall, etc.

But now Mrs. Meiji actually plans to hand over the position of lord to Daisy, which completely disrupts Lind's plan. Obviously Daisy's outstanding performance in this war was the key factor for Mrs. Meiji to make this decision.

Although Daisy becoming the Earl of Bear Island will not affect his plans north of the Great Wall, and may even be better, Bear Island is the northern territory after all. After Daisy became the Earl of Bear Island, her title You became Eddard Stark, Duke of Winterfell, and Lind contacted Daisy directly and even wanted to build a port and military base on Bear Island. This obviously violated the rights of Winterfell. If pursued, If he gets up, Linde will definitely be unreasonable.

After thinking for a moment, Linde said to Daisy: "We will talk about your matter alone later."

"Yes, sir." Daisy nodded.

Linde then asked: "Since you are leaving, is there any suitable candidate you can recommend to me for your current position as the leader of the female battalion?"

Daisy was stunned, and then looked at Obaya Sand beside her. Although they had not cooperated for a long time, she had to admit that Obaya, who had received special training from the Red Viper, was better at leading the army. First of all, Obaya is responsible for most of the affairs of the women's camp, and she is more responsible for leading the training of the women's battalion soldiers.

Linde also looked at Obaya. He was trying to establish the women's camp in Miracle Port, so he would naturally pay special attention to it. He knew the activities in the women's camp in detail, and he was also very aware of Obaya's abilities.

Obaya quickly shook her head and said: "Don't look at me, don't forget, I was sent by my father to study. I will return to Dorne in a few years. I won't be here for a long time, so you'd better find someone who can last longer." It’s better to avoid changing leaders all the time and affecting the female battalion’s combat effectiveness.”

After hearing this, Linde remembered that Obaya was an "international student from Dorne".

He still remembered that when Obaya came to him with the letter from the Red Viper, he originally wanted to send Obaya to the black cave to assist Moroya in conducting experiments. After all, Obaya's poison skills were second only to the Red Viper. , maybe even on top of the Red Viper. Moloa had communicated with her at first and was full of praise for her abilities.

But the potions in the Black Cave are Lind's most core secrets. Obaya is not loyal to his subordinates, but was sent by the Red Viper to learn his new system, which is regarded as groundbreaking by people in the Seven Kingdoms. Naturally, it is not appropriate to come into contact with too many secrets in the territory.

In the end, he chose to send Obaya to Miracle Harbor Women’s Camp. Since Obaya wanted to learn a new system, Miracle Harbor was naturally the most suitable place. The system here was brand new from the inside out, and the women’s camp It was an innovation that had never been seen before in Westeros, enough for her to learn from.

However, Obaya did so well in her position as the deputy leader of the women's camp that Linde often forgot about her identity as an international student.

"What about you? Do you have any good recommendations?" Linde asked Obaya again.

Obaya thought for a while and suggested: "How about letting Brienne be the female camp leader?"

As the leader of the Miracle Port Guards, Scar Eye is nominally the superior of the women's camp. After hearing Obaya's suggestion, he couldn't help but frowned and said, "Brenne seems to be only in her teens, which is too young. ”

"She is very young, but her abilities are not bad. She is a model knight who has been trained by Lord Linde since she was a child." Obaya looked at Scar's eyes, who had gained some weight due to her comfortable life, and said, "M Sir, you are not her opponent now, right? Even you can become the leader of the Miracle Port Guards, why can't she?"

The contradictions and conflicts between the female battalion and the garrison soldiers are no longer news in Miracle Port. The original cause is no longer known. The only thing that is certain is that the female battalion’s chief and deputy commanders and their nominal direct superiors Scar The relationship between the two is very poor. Although they are not ready to fight when they meet, they still make sarcastic remarks to each other.

Linde ignored the conflict between the women's camp and the garrison. In his opinion, it was not a big problem unless he took action directly, and he had no intention of personally mediating.

What he was thinking about was Obaya's proposal. Brienne was indeed the most suitable person to be the leader of this female camp. Although she was only a teenager, her stature and strength were already as good as those of ordinary people, and she had always accepted Lin's support. Trained by De, she fought against various warriors and knights under Linde, and also participated in various operations to encircle and suppress bandits from time to time. In terms of combat power alone, she was already very strong, even Daisy and Obaya were Without using special means, he is no match for her.

In addition, Brienne, as Lind's squire, often attends various political meetings and assists Lind in handling various affairs. Her administrative skills are sufficient to hold any position in the territory.

However, after thinking carefully for a moment, Lind still shook his head and rejected the idea of ​​letting Brienne serve as the leader of the female camp.

"Why? Isn't she the most suitable candidate?" Obaya and Daisy both felt puzzled and asked.

"She is the sole heir of the Tarth family in the Hall of Dusk." Lind said the reason why he rejected Brienne as the female battalion leader.

Although Lord Selwyn Tarth had always hoped to find a male heir for the Tarth family by letting Brienne marry and have offspring, with the rise of Nymeria and Tengshi Town, , he also gradually changed his mind, and then sent Brienne to Nymeria, hoping that Brienne would learn how to be a lord.

During the recent period, Earl Selwyn wrote several letters to Brienne, saying that his health was getting worse and worse, and that he hoped Brienne could return to Duskhall to help him manage the territory. Obviously Earl Selwyn is There is already the idea of ​​handing the territory to Brienne.

However, Brienne refused her father's call on the grounds that she had not established enough merits to become a knight.

However, in Lind's view, it would be a matter of time before Brienne returned to Dusk's Hall, so she was not suitable to hold an important position in the territory.

"I do know a good prospect." Daisy thought for a while and said: "Her name is Tilan, she is the captain of the female battalion under my command. She used to be a gladiator in Meereen. Later, she and her family were killed by slave traders. She bought it and sent it here. After becoming a free agent, she joined the women's camp. Her ability is outstanding among the women's camp. Her brother is a falconer at the Eagle's Nest, and her nephew seems to have become a dock pilot. In terms of loyalty, no problem."

After listening to Daisy's recommendation, Lind thought for a while and said: "You select a few more people and make a list. I will transfer them to the Redemption Temple to undergo the loyalty trial and ability test. As long as she can pass the trial , she will be your successor, but before that, you still need to continue to be the leader of the female camp for a while. "

"Yes, Lord Earl." Daisy nodded after hearing this.

Lind then looked at the Miracle Port officials in the room and asked, "Where are Sir Halls and Bishop Joses?"

Steward Wise replied: "Sir Halls is sitting on the Stepstone Islands. Because of your disappearance, the pirate alliance on the Stepstone Islands thought they could take advantage of the opportunity and wanted to cause trouble. Sir Halls has already led a part of the fleet there. God’s Grace Island. Bishop Joseis is currently undergoing the trial of the Seven Gods in the Redemption Temple.”

"Joseth went to accept the trial of the Seven Gods?" Linde was stunned when he heard this, and asked: "Why did he do this?"

The Trial of the Seven Gods created by Linde and Moroya is an enhanced version of the Sister of Redemption and Silent Monk trials. Its function is to transform the people who are tested in all aspects, and the degree of danger is naturally doubled.

So far, three people have participated in the trial, and each of them is an extremely devout monk of the Church of the Seven Gods, and they are also extremely loyal to Linde.

However, these three monks eventually collapsed because they could not bear the pain caused by the trials. Even if their bodies finally completed all the trials, they still inevitably became almost vegetative and living dead.

The trials of these three monks were not presided over by Linde and Moroya. In fact, when the Seven Gods Trial was created, the two felt that this transformation was too radical and did not plan to implement it. They did not even plan to conduct experiments. .

As an assistant, Qyburn felt that the Trial of the Seven Gods had been perfected and could be used for real-person experiments, so he tricked three devout monks from the Temple of Salvation into participating in the experiment. In the end, the experiment failed, and Qyburn was punished for it. , in the next six months he was not allowed to go near the Black Cave, nor was he allowed to do any experiments. This was undoubtedly the biggest punishment for Cobain, who was addicted to various experiments.

"He feels that you have paid too much attention to the Redemption Temple and ignored the Miracle Temple for too long," Wise said with a helpless look: "That's why he took the initiative to apply for the Seven Gods Trial to prove his trust in the Seven Gods and the Holy Spirit. Your loyalty, my lord.”

Hearing Wise's reasons for Bishop Joses, Lind was a little dumbfounded and didn't know what to say for a moment.

As Wise said, he is indeed very attentive to the Church of Redemption, and has personally formed quasi-church armed forces such as the Sisters of Redemption, Silent Monks, and the Chosen Sons, while the Temple of Miracles is completely in a free-range state.

Although he also sent some stone giants to serve as temple guards and stationed in the Temple of Miracles, but this time Lind disappeared, and the people in Redemption Town felt that the power to protect Nymeria and her unborn child was not enough, and they The stone giant was recalled to the Temple of Salvation.

This naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of Bishop Joses, so he decided to participate in the Seven Gods Trial to prove his piety and loyalty in the hope of getting more attention from Linde in the future.

This kind of behavior can simply be replaced by the word "striving for favor", which made Linde feel a little speechless.

"How many trials has he completed now?" Linde sighed and asked Wise.

For Linde, Bishop Joses is not only loyal to him, but also extremely capable. He does not want such a capable subordinate to become a living dead due to competition for favor, so he hopes that the Trial of the Seven Gods has not progressed to the point of irreversibility. to the point where the blockage continues.

Wise replied: "I heard that he has completed all the trials and is adapting to the Redemption Temple. He received the blessings of the Seven Gods during the trials."

"Have you passed all the trials?" Linde was stunned when he heard this. He knew very well that without any anesthesia, the so-called trials and transformation methods required people to be completely awake, even if they had an iron will. , I’m afraid it would be difficult to survive this kind of torture, so Linde felt that the Redemption Temple was lying.

But if you think about it carefully, lying can only deceive you for a while. Sooner or later, Bishop Joses will return to the Miracle Church to take charge of affairs. By then, Bishop Joses has not returned, and the lie will be self-defeating, and the trouble it will cause will be There may be more, and those at the Redemption Church should not be able to see this, so Bishop Joses’s trial may have really succeeded.

This made Lind also feel a little curious, wondering what kind of changes Bishop Joses would have after undergoing these transformations.

Linde did not pay too much attention to the matter of Bishop Joses. He would know everything when he returned to Redemption Town.

Then, based on what he just heard, he adjusted the policies of Miracle Port, such as increasing the number of members of the Miracle Chamber of Commerce, and conducting the third phase expansion of the pier in advance, etc.

After confessing these things, he let everyone except Daisy leave.

After leaving Daisy behind, Lind briefly told Daisy about his plans outside the Great Wall and the importance of Bear Island in the plan. He hoped that Daisy could cooperate with him in implementing these plans after becoming the Earl of Bear Island.

After hearing this, Daisy thought for a moment and said, "If we contact the savage tribe outside the wall without authorization, what will happen to the Night Watch?"

Linde gave a solution and said: "I will give you a letter. After you go back, go to Castle Black when you have time and give it to the Commander-in-Chief. He will not hold you accountable for this matter. "

As he spoke, he paused and said: "The only thing you need to consider is the attitude of Winterfell. After all, if I build a military fortress on Bear Island, it will be equivalent to an invasion of the North. Even if you and Duke Eddard doesn’t mind this matter. Other nobles in the north will also raise objections and force Duke Eddard to make some decisions. When the time comes, I’m afraid you will bear the brunt and be the first to make things difficult.”

"At that time, I can indeed send troops to support you, but in that case, I will really become an invader of the North, and you and Xiongdao will also be regarded as traitors to the North. I don't want the relationship with the North to deteriorate as a result. , so I will not send troops directly unless it is absolutely necessary. You can only find a way to solve everything by yourself."

Hearing the difficulties mentioned by Linde, Daisy not only did not feel worried, but looked eager to try, and said: "Please rest assured, I know how to deal with it? At worst, we can use the traditional methods of the north to solve this problem."

"Traditional method?" Linde looked at Daisy doubtfully.

Daisy picked up the hammer on her waist and waved it twice, saying, "Just use force to subdue them."
