Chapter 399 The Awakened Soul of Assassin (Part 2)
Because the inhabitants of the inner castle of Queenscrown are single and not There is no reason for the new land grantors to be idle and miscellaneous people of unknown origin, and most of them will be in a relatively relaxed state when they enter here - a typical example is the soldiers from Winterfell who were supposed to take care of their two young ladies. Fort, they will have a clear division of labor and follow closely to stare at Arya and Myrcella, and as soon as they come in, they will immediately change to stocking mode.

Relying on this carelessness, Arya, who was holding the Needle hilt, carefully avoided them who were having a heated discussion for the Dragon Queen, and came to the bridge between Queenscrown's inner fort and Lake Heart Island, hiding in a building. Probe behind the house to scout this place that must be passed when going to the island.

Not far away, four black clothed and black armored guards stood at the bridge head and looked at the internal employees of to-and-fro seriously.

How to get through here.

A stealthy figure sneaks past? Come on, it's daytime, the bridge is empty and there is no cover, let alone four guards, even if there is only one, just turn his head from time to time and look around, anyone who wants to cross the bridge has nowhere to hide.

A lie about going to that island? But——Lake Heart Island is very small, there are no other buildings except one tower, and the tower is already empty, why is there any reason for oneself to go there?
Rush over? Pull it down.

Assassination speaking of which is simple, but it's not that easy to implement.

Arya thought in anguish, gasped at her hands in the corner, rubbed and rubbed, struggled for a while, but finally saw a slightly familiar silhouette out of the corner of her eyes: Queenscrown Chef's apprentice Willie, oneself often accompanied Myrcella to the kitchen to ask for food scraps and minced meat for Tommen's kitten. The young apprentice is holding a wooden box at the moment, and the slightly escaping heat in the box indicates that it should be freshly baked food - hum, actually gave food to Mad King's daughter?
Arya is secretly annoyed and jealous. If only oneself had some kind of poison, as long as they secretly put a little bit in the food for the mad King's Daughter, killing people invisibly, that's really the best way - the father said that poison is a woman's weapon? Well said!
But now...

She had an idea, tucked Needle's sheath under her clothes, squeezed the tip of her sword up and tied it with her trousers, then stood carefree from her hiding place He came out and called to the kitchen apprentice Willie: "Hey! You! Come here!"

"Miss Stark?" The young kitchen apprentice stopped and turned to her with a wooden box. "What are you doing here, I just saw Lord Igor looking for you everywhere."

"Hey, leave him alone." Arya could not see the other party, so she had to walk over by oneself, recalling the natural charm of Melisandre He tried his best to imitate his expression and winked at him, "What are you doing, are you going to send food to the mad... Dragon Queen?"

This trick really works, the kitchen The apprentice was rarely able to talk to a girl-especially a girl like Miss Stark, and she blushed when she teased her awkwardly and awkwardly: "Yes, my Master said it, and I have to send it to me while it's hot. , this is the honored guest that Lord Igor personally ordered to be entertained."

"The kitchen is busy, please go back and I will deliver it for you." Arya looked enthusiastic and was about to take it. Box.

"Why." Who would have thought that Willie was not stunned this time, and turned around to avoid Arya's enthusiastic help, "My Master asked me to deliver it personally!"

"My dignified Arya Stark, the younger sister guarded by North, will steal your food!" Arya stared at her hips, trying to scare the little apprentice with her imposing manner, "Bring it!"

"No No..." Although the primary school apprentice was a little older than Arya, he was the child of the ordinary person's family after all. At first, she was intimidated by her for a few seconds. , Everyone outside said that Dragon Queen looks very good...I...I just started playing in the kitchen and didn't see it. I just wanted to take a look this time. Lord Igor seems to be looking for you in a hurry, you...you should go back and see you soon. Let him."

After saying that, without waiting for her to think about the next move, she walked quickly towards the guards at the bridge head as if she was running for her life.

This little apprentice seems to be honest and responsible, but in the end he has to go to see the Queen, men are really big hooves! Arya stomped her feet in anger, but didn't dare to shout loudly for fear of attracting the attention of the guards, so she could only hide back to the hiding place.

What's going on, according to the script, shouldn't it be oneself who successfully deceived the lunch box, facing the guard's fierce cross-examination "I suspect you are assassin, but there is no evidence" but was finally put in, There is no danger... After a successful chase, after a thrilling chase, did you finally get out of it?

It's all written like this in the story, how come it doesn't work when oneself is here!

Arya, who was covered in dirt by the repeated setbacks, looked at Lake Heart Island again in a hurry and annoyance. After being depressed for a while, she really found a new solution: the Lake Heart Island of the pocket lake and the Although there is only one wooden bridge connected to the outside world, but because of the cold weather, the lake is actually frozen... Although I don't know the thickness, but oneself is small and light, so it should be safe to walk across, and there is no need to be guarded by others. The bridge is dead!
Arya, who found the shortcut to the island, was excited, turned and left the hiding place, hummed a song pretending to be relaxed, familiar through the gaps and corridors between the houses, went around to the lake shore on the other side away from the bridge, and looked down at the lake. Come:
After the lake was frozen, the frozen ice caused snowflakes to accumulate without touching the water surface. The ice surface was flat and smooth, so the howling wind easily swept the snow away from the center of the lake and pushed it to the shore, and the snow was originally on the shore. After the snow is connected into one piece, people can't tell where is the water and where is the shore. There are only occasional potholes that presumably indicate where the lake's shore divides—the potholes that had been dug up to get water through the mouth, but there was no one here at the moment.

Arya remembered: In order to protect this precious water source and prevent residents from misusing or dumping garbage and excrement into it, the master has always emphasized that the small lake should not be approached without permission. And fishing holes on the ice in the middle of the lake is an action that can only be carried out with his personal approval. Because there are few small fish in the lake, and there are no distinguished guests, it will be completely banned. Arya oneself has only eaten this twice. The fish in the pocket lake... The taste is quite delicious, but the amount is small.

By recalling these details, Arya determined two things: one, that oneself's weight is absolutely fine to pass through the ice; Re-freezing and snow cover, it looks similar but the thickness is definitely not enough, and stepping on it may be dangerous.

If oneself accidentally falls into the ice lake and drowns, I wonder if the master will be upset and weeping bitter tears?

Thinking like this, Arya unconsciously took the role of "The Drowned Girl" and felt a sore nose... After wandering around the lake for half a circle with this desolate state of mind, she Finally found a branch that was thick and long enough to satisfy her. Picking it up and knocking off the ice residue on it, she used a branch as a cane and embarked on a long journey across the ice.

Well, in fact, it is only a few dozen meters away from the lake shore to Lake Heart Island. No matter how careful you are, you will arrive in a few minutes. This short ride was quite thrilling. Arya relied on the branches to avoid two ice holes hidden under the snow for fishing... When she reached the middle of the lake and the island, the ice under her feet There were also a few creaking noises, which scared her so much that she hurriedly lowered her body, spread her weight on the lake with her hands and feet, and walked the last leg in an embarrassing manner.

Gaping for breath, she finally touched the island. Now, she is less than ten meters away from Mad King's daughter and a stone wall.

Close to the outer wall of the tower, she cautiously walked around in the direction of the tower's entrance, and then heard the voices of two men again.

......

"Did you feel it?" Guard A said in a deliberately low voice, "Queen has a really strong aura, and I followed him on the field just now. Lord Igor went to greet her, but she was so frightened that she couldn't speak, but fortunately it wasn't my turn to speak."

"Eh, did you feel it too? I thought it was oneself being frightened by the dragon. It's an illusion." Guard B replied, "If it weren't for the adults not speaking, I wouldn't dare to move, I really wanted to kneel directly."

"Me too! This is definitely not an illusion, dragon. After flying away, the Queen is still a little scary!" Jia sighed, "Lord Commander is worthy of being a Lord Commander, not only is the face doesn't change stared at by the dragon, but his speech is still smooth and fluent, and he is still chatting with the Queen. It's almost, I think Queen's face is obviously much better."

"Yes, there are always good people who are good, otherwise anyone can be a Lord Commander." B agrees, "Hey, you said , Did Dragon Queen stay with dragons for a long time and got Dragon's Might on her body, or was she born like this?"

"I think it is like this, not that she is really a dragon, but the three dragons. Isn't it normal to have Dragon's Might?"

"Nonsense, which magical version are you listening to, the three dragons are that she killed oneself husband and then held dragon eggs with Blood Magic It was hatched, not by her oneself!"

"What you heard is the bullshit version, her husband was killed by witchcraft, not by her! With True Dragon bloodline, the anger brewed in my heart after my husband was murdered, and it condensed from nothingness to become a dragon embryo, and then gave birth to three dragon eggs!"

"Have you seen how big a dragon egg is? , Queen is so slender, how can she look like she was born with such a big thing!"

"That may be, she never took off her pants in front of me, maybe the bottom of Dragon Queen is different from normal women. What."

......

Men are really big hooves, and they can talk about everything to the lower body. Arya spit, and cautiously probed out to see: two familiar-looking logistics soldiers, fully armed in black clothed and black armor, stood outside the entrance of the tower, with their backs to the door, facing the direction of the wooden bridge connecting the opposite bank. , chatting with each other.

Arya hated the master's meticulousness for the first time: it was too much, to send so many people to protect Mad King's daughter, leaving no chance for assassin!
What should we do this time? She frowned and thought.

Any way to make some noise to trick these two guys away? The island is so big!
Go straight up and lie to them that oneself has something to bring to the Queen? Old Gods are on, even oneself is familiar with them, how could they not know oneself, Miss Stark!

So, rush up and take them both down before they're ready?
Hmm... that would work, but Arya groaned as she surveyed the size and gear of the two big guards. No, no, let's forget it, oneself killed the two most trusted guards of the master, the master will definitely be angry, how to explain to him when the time comes.

Besides, oneself is an assassin, and an assassin is meant to sneak in and assassinate. If you open Wushuang and rush in, can you still be called an assassin!
This is not called cowardice, this is called dedication.

Does the tower have holes that people can drill into? Can you climb up and drill the windows like Bran did when he was a kid!

She lifts the head to look up the tower, and when she turns her head, she suddenly finds a large black shadow beside her, so frightened that she almost sits in the snow, and when she takes a closer look, it is actually the master— When oneself was looking at the two guards at the door, he somehow sneaked around behind oneself, and under the cover of the whistling wind, oneself didn't even notice it!
