Chapter 52 The Red God Priest and the "Here"

Igor has to admit, Melisandre is a tempting A woman, with red hair, red eyes and a beautiful face, she wears a bright red robe that cannot be dyed by ordinary dyes in this era. Compared with her, the age can only be evenly divided at most... If he didn't know her identity, he would definitely be happy to know such a beautiful woman, and even consider her one of the targets of the strategy.

But at the current stage, Igor can't think of this guy who is unknown age, lacks in cultivation, dressed up as God, playing the Devil with the help of flame reaction, and tricked Stannis into family broken and people lost. , Goddess' stick that made House Baratheon almost destroyed in infighting, how can it help oneself's plan... Besides, in deep in one's heart, as a transmigrator, he is also a bit instinctively afraid of each other - not only because of her words If they disagree, they will burn the living people, because the other party has something called "mana" that does not exist in the world from which oneself comes.

People are always afraid of things they don't understand. This is self-protection at the genetic level. Igor is not ashamed of this - the brave are not fearless, they are just able to overcome their fears. He did have some awe and fear of Melisandre, and he was not ready to meet this important plot character, but since the other party took the initiative to come to the door, he could only confront soldiers with generals and stem water with earth.

 …

Suppressed the inner tension, and reason soon began to play a role: the woman in front of her was terrifying, but after all, she was not as moody as Mad King. Impermanence unfathomable mystery was about to be set. people die. If the enemy of the enemy is a friend, then Melisandre, who knows the existence of the Others and serves the Lord of Light wholeheartedly, should theoretically be a friend of the Night's Watch, a comrade in a camp - although oneself wants to leave the Night's Watch, but the other party does not. I know.

Immediately figured out the key, Igor felt relieved, stood up from the table, and calmly surveyed the people who came. Even couldn't help but guess whether the other party's beautiful face was born like this or created by Magic.

Melisandre took the initiative to come to oneself, presumably just to ask about Wall and beyond the wall, so as to determine what step Others is threatening to human beings, so as to formulate countermeasures. Should we tell the truth, or exaggerate to see if we can deceive some assistance?

Wait, things have to come step by step, let's think about how to say hello first. Long-awaited name? If you don't know the plot, the oneself at the moment should not know Melisandre, so you can only be conservative and pretend that you don't know each other, and simply call the lady.

"Good evening, ma'am."

"Good evening." Melisandre smiled softly and seductively: "The representative of the Kingdom Shield is here at Dragonstone and should have been treated well. That's right, it's a pity that the island is really poor, and I'm sorry if I'm neglectful."

"You're too kind, I'm here on business, not for enjoyment."

Melisandre smiles With nodded, he slowly approached the four people at the table.

Because of the hot weather, everyone basically rolled up their sleeves and bare their arms. At this moment, the exposed skin obviously felt a warmth that was not an illusion. This made Igor heart shivered with cold. , unless the Priest of the Lord of Light has a fever of fifty-sixty degrees all day, it is impossible to walk with such an amazing hot wind, what is this magic or ghost trick, or is the "god" she believes in really using this The heat protects her?
Pressing the doubts in his heart, Night's Watch was waiting for Goddess's next inquiries or temptations, and made psychological and physical preparations for various responses, but the development of things suddenly went beyond the expectations of everyone in the room.

......

"Huh?" The Red Woman who was close to Igor suddenly showed a shocked expression on her face. Watch jumped away with a needle on the ground, shouting at the same time, "Guards! Come in and catch this heretic!"

＊＊＊

Two fully armed armed The Dragonstone guard quickly broke into the house, and the sharp lance was aimed straight at the Night's Watch, who was stunned.

What's going on?

This is the second time that Igor was arrested after crossing the border. Last time, he was unarmed against the peasants with pitchforks and hatchets. Knowing that he was wrong and unable to resist, he chose to be obedient. Surrendered, was caught and sent to Wall to be a Night's Watch. But this time, what happened?
Before he could think about it, his year-long Ranger career made his body react instinctively. He reached out to his waist, but didn't touch the hilt. That's when he remembered that the steel swords issued by Night's Watch Legion had been handed over to the arsenal on the day he left Castle Black, and there was no need to carry weapons when he came to King's Landing. ...

"Don't move your hands!" A soldier lanced, showing one's ferocious appearance.

Igor reacted, this is Dragonstone, in front of these are the soldiers trained by Stannis himself, and this Baratheon, as a long-established Warrior and commander, the soldiers under him are definitely only higher in combat quality than oneself. Not low... If one against two is fine, one against two, there is an unfathomable witch on the side, even with a weapon, oneself can't resist.

The air seemed to freeze, and the old miner and his son were so frightened that they sobered up, standing in their original positions and didn't dare to move; The chair stood stupidly in the middle of the room; the boy who was assigned by the lord to lead the way for Igor had no idea what was going on—he was also a Dragonstone, and naturally served Duke of Dragonstone, but he was still eating the meal Igor invited a second ago. , If Night's Watch starts to resist, which side should oneself help?

...

"I surrender, but please let me pay for the meal first." Igor froze in place for a few seconds, touched the right hand on his waist and moved, He took off the money bag and threw it to the old mine: "Go back to the boat, tell the captain that I have something to go to the castle, and let him wait for me until noon tomorrow."

......

Igor was unable to enter the gate of Dragonstone Castle when he came to visit in the morning, but was escorted in by the fully armed Dragonstone guards, his obediently surrender let Melisandre's nervousness go away, until Night's Watch was firmly tied to the pillar of the oneself room in the castle On, she was finally relaxed.

Standing a few meters away, Melisandre said in a flat tone: "Who sent you here?"

Igor stared at Melisandre, his expression firm and serious, but in his mind he didn't. It's still a mess: he fooled the Stark family, framed the current king Crown Prince, and tricked Tyrion Lannister into trying to convince him to support oneself in a Ponzi scheme... From some perspectives, he's simply audacious, crime deserving ten thousand deaths, But he definitely did not provoke or harm Stannis Baratheon, let alone offend the Lord of Light. As for "heretics", to Red God, isn't Westeros heretics everywhere? Stannis hasn't become a king yet, who gave Red Woman the courage to persecute heathen, and there is also Liang Jingru in the world of ice and fire?

"Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, Jeor Mormont." Of course Igor wouldn't say that Tyrion paid to redeem oneself, but even if he told the truth, he shouldn't be able to provoke the Lord in front of him at all. The believers of the Light are right - could Melisandre know the circumstances of the Night's Watch so well that he is angry at oneself for fearing the Others are running away?
"Really, why did you come here?"

Igor told the truth about the four missions, then endured the humiliation and anger and said, "Ms. Melisandre, there must be something in here. Misunderstanding, this is definitely the first time I've seen you..."

"It's indeed the first time we met, but I sensed a powerful Great Other aura from you. Who are you?"

Great Other ? Igor swears that oneself really doesn't know what it is. Is oneself contaminated with Ice Magic's breath when fighting Others, or is oneself not an aborigines of this world, so Goddess stick in front of him perceives the abnormality?

He decided to be tough: "Ma'am, I really don't understand what you're talking about."

"Maybe you don't, but I have a way of getting the information I want. Melisandre showed an ambiguous smile, and said to a guard next to him, "Go and bring a brazier."

A brazier, does it have to be tortured?

Igor was surprised and angry, oneself has always been a person who takes precautions. He imagined how oneself would be arrested by House Stark, caught by Robert and even fall into the hands of Cersei. oneself excused himself, and even made up a few lines in his stomach, but he didn't expect that Dragonstone would encounter an accident when exploring obsidian mines - Heaven and Earth Conscience, he really didn't know what oneself should confess to Melisandre , this unfathomable mystery is beyond his shrewd comprehension, can he only reveal the identity of the transmigrator when the hot iron is pressed against oneself's skin si si si si? Melisandre can believe?
The brazier quickly moved in and placed it a meter away in front of Igor. There was not a red-hot soldering iron stuck in it as he expected. Instead, the Red Woman took out a knife out of nowhere. Handed it to the guard: "Go, get some blood from this Night's Watch, just a few drops, don't take too much, I want him to live."

不得不说，新封面比原来的好多了
