"Of course, I still need to check the details before accepting apprentices. I don't mind my background, poor, noble, even slaves. I will accept as apprentices, but if it is an enemy, it is better for my brother to solve it in advance."
"Our Baratheon family doesn't have dragons, but our family has magicians." Robert also understood that the enemy's future magicians would be dealt with in advance, and if other magicians were taught by the Baratheon family, it would be of great help to the kingdom. Inheritance is very important.
Chapter 28 Dragon Roar
At dawn the next day, the army began to march towards Pike City. Monarch Port was three hours away from Pike City. It was almost noon when they arrived outside the city.
This time the castle was attacked by infantry. The terrain on Pike Island is rugged and full of strange rocks, and it is not convenient for horses to be transported by boat, so cavalry battles were not considered at all. Only Robert and Stark and a few messengers rode horses. Lannister, Barristan, Renly, and several other Kingsguard stood guard around them, and the maester took out a pen to record the situation in his notebook.
Pike City is built on a cliff, so only one side has a city wall, and the other three sides have cliffs and continuous waves, so there is no worry that the enemy will climb up.
The attacking army formation has been lined up. Since it is necessary to avoid bows and arrows at a certain distance from the city wall, the terrain is uneven, and thousands of people are divided into hundreds of small square formations.The armored landing troops line up at the forefront, and the armor and weapons are complete and unified, which can deter the enemy.Although the navy and sailors are regular troops, they don't wear armor and can only stand in the second row.The boatmen and migrant workers stand at the end to fill up the number of people.
Werther was still the same as yesterday, wearing a noble robe with a sword in his hand, standing alone at the forefront of the entire team, looking out of place with the army behind him who was ready to go, like a negotiating envoy.
Siege warfare is very difficult for the attacker. Even if the advantage is obvious, try to avoid losses. Especially on the Iron Islands, supplies are all shipped. Once the siege fails, it will be very troublesome to organize the next attack, so the army has been Wait for the dew on the walls to dry.
It was not until the sun was shining at noon that the herald blew the horn for the first attack. The sound was short, meaning that the troops who broke the city were attacking.
This is the first time Werther has stood on the battlefield in two lifetimes.
I have watched many ancient war film and television works in my previous life, and I can only experience the magnificence, passion, passion and bravery. Now standing here, I can still feel the panic, anxiety, and mixed emotions of the people on both sides. This is the real ancient war. battlefield.
[After researching for almost 4 years, I can't make any equipment to reduce the consumption of magic power. I use the magic power stored in my body to use magic. Even if the magic power is drained today, let the world see the power of dragon language magic! 】
With the sword in his waist, a man started to walk towards the city wall of Pike. The eyes of the troops on both sides all focused on Werther, and the defenders on the city wall began to shoot arrows at Werther.
Werther raised his right hand and released the Iron Armor Technique, his body was immediately covered with a silvery white light, and the people on both sides were amazed.
There is still a distance from the city wall, so we have to get closer, otherwise the magic effect will be scattered. Werther started to run forward with all his strength, and charged towards the city wall alone. are farther than adults.When the arrow was approaching, Werther released the magic barrier forward with one hand. The pale white magic barrier was fixed in front like a shield, and the arrow shot on it was either bounced off or fell to the ground.
Seeing Werther's heroic act of charging towards the enemy's castle alone with a magic shield in his hand, the morale of the rear was greatly boosted, and the whole army raised their weapons and roared to cheer Werther.
Werther rushed to stand about 20 meters away from the city wall, with his left and right hands holding up a magic shield to protect the sides of his body. Facing the city wall in front of the gap in the magic shield, he mobilized the magic power in his body, took a deep breath and roared:
"Fus, Ro~Dah~~~~!"
The friendly troops in the rear only saw Werther rushing to the front of the city wall to stop, and then heard three unknown words roaring out of Werther's mouth one after another. The sound was deafening and spread throughout the battlefield. There was an echo, and even an echo came from the sky. Everyone was frightened by the roar and their hearts stopped for a while.
But the defenders on the city wall in the front direction will be miserable.
They first heard a burst of shouting from far to near, and when the last word was uttered, the sounds of the first word and the second word had already reached their ears, and they felt that the sound was loud and nothing else.
But with the roar of the third word Dah, ripples visible to the naked eye also came from Werther's mouth and went straight to the city wall. The ripples were inspired by magic mixed with sound waves and dragon language magic, starting from the size of a fist and gradually getting bigger and bigger. By the time of the city wall, it had spread to nearly 5 meters.
The city wall was directly shaken by the ripples and blasted a big gap with a diameter of almost 5 meters. The defenders above were shaken into pieces of meat, rubble, pieces of meat, bones and blood donations were splashed, and some pieces even flew up to tens of meters high. Yu Wei rushed into the city mixed with smoke and dust, and continued to destroy several houses. Even the defenders who were a little farther away on the city wall were shaken to the point of bleeding.
The bachelors accompanying the army are also writing hard. The whole bachelor institution hates magic. This time, there is one in the army who can set the sword on fire. They think it is just a trick, and the one that Werther is using to break the city with one blow is the real one. The magic completely shattered their previous cognition, and everyone was very excited to record this historic moment.
It is also the first time Werther used it in actual combat. The book he took out from the space said that the unshakable power was used by the ancient dragon descendants to attack the city. Usually practice is to find a place where there is no one and send it out to the air. The dragon As the user's understanding of the incantation deepens, the power of the language magic weapon becomes stronger and stronger. Seeing this effect, it is worthwhile to use up almost half of the magic power in one's body.
Now the city wall is in a mess, some are hit by falling stones, some are bleeding and crying in pain from the seven orifices.Most of the friendly side were also in shock, and some of them didn't recover from the roar just now.
Witt drew out the long sword at his waist with his right hand, stretched his arm and waved it half a circle, and then the sword pointed directly at the gap in the city wall.
After Robert saw it, he sent an order, eh~~~ The bright horn sounded and the whole army attacked!
Werther's magic attack completely frightened the defenders on the city wall. Bows and arrows were useless, and a roar could send the city wall flying, and they had already begun to flee to the inner city.
After recovering from the shock, Wang Jun's morale reached the highest point, and they rushed towards the castle roaring desperately, especially those from the northern border. The first one to rush under the city wall was Lord Jorah of Bear Island. Mormont.
They had the largest number of people on the island this time. During the construction of the siege equipment as originally planned, the Reach Fleet would bring troops to join the landing, but it was delayed due to Werther's reason, and they are still on their way at sea.
Werther has protection on his body. He holds a magic shield in his left hand and a sword in his right. He hacks and kills routs under the city wall. He can use magic himself. Half of the skills in the game system are for melee combat. There are also extra points beyond ordinary people. His physical fitness has far exceeded adults.
Being besieged must have narrowly escaped death, but despite the large number of these routs, their morale had already collapsed, and each of them wanted to grow three legs and run to the inner city, and did not dare to attack Werther at all.When Jorah ran through the gap, he saw a half-sized Werther chasing and hacking.
Witte has been fighting near the gap in the city wall, waiting for reinforcements and not going deep into the enemy's line, fearing that the defeated army will be pushed into a hurry, and suddenly a strong man will regroup and besiege him.Seeing a big man wearing northern-style armor with a black bear emblem on his chest leading people, he immediately shouted:
"Jorah, follow me!"
Jorah and several family members immediately moved closer to Werther's side, assisting Werther to fight towards the inner city together.
The two met in Robert's tent yesterday. At that time, Jorah felt that this kid was here to make military achievements, and looked down on Werther very much.But just after seeing Werther's magical ripples that shook the stone city wall away, I realized that the rotten wood in King's Harbor yesterday, others didn't cut their hands, and a roar might smash a street directly.
Subsequently, the soldiers from the northern border rushed into the gap in the city wall and quickly cleared the defenders who had not had time to retreat to the inner city. When the outer city was occupied, Werther and Jola led hundreds of people to continue to gather towards the gate of the inner city.
The soldiers who came in later stabbed every defender who fell on the ground, stabbing the heart of those without armor, and beheading those with armor.Some were seriously injured and survived to send him on the road, and they were also afraid that some would pretend to be dead and suddenly explode and kill people.
Due to the steeper terrain of the inner city, the castle and the outer city are only connected by a cable suspension bridge. Below the suspension bridge is a cliff and the sea tens of meters away. At the end of the suspension bridge is a closed wooden door. There are two towers on the left and right of the castle.
The suspension bridge is too narrow, only two people can pass side by side at a time, and it is shaking from side to side so that people have to hold it up with their hands, but this is because the archers on the tower will shoot arrows, and the front has been shot to death. People from the northern border who are greedy for merit can only watch helplessly as they fall off the suspension bridge due to injuries.
Chapter 29 Pike City
A sword pierced through an enemy's chest, and after removing the magic shield, a string of flames spewed out from the hand. The most basic fire-breathing magic does not need to be condensed with magic power, and the flames are directly generated in the palm of the hand and continuously sprayed.
The flames swept across the enemy, their hair was ignited, their eyes dared not open, their clothes were ignited, and the flames blessed by magic quickly burned their skin into burnt paste. They would not die immediately but lost their fighting power, and their eyes could not see They could make miserable screams and ran around, some were stabbed by Werther, some ran downstairs and were hacked to death by soldiers from the north, one, two, three, and in less than half a minute, there were only three living people left. The whole hall is filled with the aroma of barbecue.
The mighty man was wearing heavy armor, Werther's magic couldn't ignite the armor, and this big man had rich combat experience, regardless of the scorching heat of the whole body armor, he rushed towards Werther with one hand shielding his eyes, raised the ax with one hand and rushed to the front to chop , the giant ax struck with great force and took Werther's head straight.
Werther admired this big man very much, he could think of covering his eyes with his hands in a very short time and launching close combat.But he obviously didn't see that Werther knew more than fire magic outside the city.
Dodging the big man's attack, Werther took two steps back and used the ice spray technique. The cold wind mixed with the ice shavings hit the big man, and the originally hot armor was instantly cooled down, releasing a lot of water vapor.The big man couldn't see his surroundings and could only slash wildly. Suddenly he felt a cold wind blowing on his body. It was very comfortable to cool himself down at first, but his eyes could no longer be seen, so he could only swing the ax in the direction of the cold wind. cut off.
Werther watched the big man burnt and was under the ice magic. The ice magic blocked his line of sight a bit. He didn't pay attention for a while. He didn't realize it until the big man's ax was almost cut to the neck. , Immediately dropped the sword in his hand and changed to casting spells with both hands. When casting the same spell with both hands, the magic power consumption will increase but the power will also increase.
The big man felt getting colder and colder, his body temperature dropped instantly, he was frozen and unable to move in less than two breaths, his whole body was covered with ice crystals, and his brain gradually lost the ability to think.
In the hall, Jorah and the others had already killed the last defenders and ran to the second floor. Just now, they saw a man covered in blood spraying flames from the palm of his hand and burning a large group of enemies to death. The most mighty big man froze into a white ice sculpture.There is also a strong man with a burning sword in his hand. He looks at Werther and his own sword, not knowing what he is thinking.
Werther supported his waist and panted for a little rest:
[I was almost killed just now, and in the usual martial arts practice, everyone just keeps fighting. When it comes to the battlefield, the moves are all for the vital points. It's not about life and death. I thought I was "invincible" in the martial arts field, so I started to be arrogant. I almost lost my life this time because I made the wrong combination of magic. I have to reflect on it when I go back. Many people have ruined their bright future because they underestimated the enemy. 】
Jorah approached the white human-shaped ice sculpture, and the white condensed fog continuously fell around the ice sculpture, showing that it was extremely cold. He didn't touch it, the flames and ice, he had already seen that it was Werther, but he didn't understand how Werther got upstairs, and he Look at this big guy:
"The face is scorched, but I know his armor and build. He should be Victarion Greyjoy. I saw it in Lannisterport the year before last. It was Balon Greyjoy's." dear brother."
"It turned out to be a big squid, Jorah, you continue to attack, I will rest for a while." Werther found that his waist really hurt [didn't warm up, he used magic as soon as he came, and he went from the fourth floor to the second floor, such a strenuous exercise , This is really flashing to the waist. 】
Jorah looked at Werther covered in blood, the charred corpses all over the ground and the ice sculpture, thinking that Werther was physically unable to keep up, so he nodded and waved his sword, letting the troops continue to attack the second fortress.
Chapter 30 The Greyjoy House
Werther leaned on the wall to rest, and all the soldiers from Bear Island ran past and nodded to Werther. They all saw the battle on the second floor just now, and they recognized Werther as a warrior from the bottom of their hearts.
When Daisy Mormont ran past, she took a water bag from her body and handed it to Werther. Before she could say thank you, she followed the crowd to the opposite side.A strong man in a red robe with a flaming long sword passed by and said to Werther:
"I~~~~"
Werther interrupted him:
"I know you want to talk about magic. After the battle, you come to the king's tent to find me. Let's have a good chat."
"Okay" Soros is a Red God priest from the Eastern Continent. This is the first time he has seen other magicians besides other Red God priests. Originally, his relationship with the Red God and magic has been shaken, and he has stopped preaching. Mercenary life.They knew each other when they were working in the army, and they often drank together afterwards. The flame on the long sword was not magic, but was ignited after the Tushan wildfire. Now seeing Werther is even more excited to speak.
Werther patted him on the shoulder, Soros nodded, turned around and followed the crowd to continue killing the enemy.
The reason why I talked with Soros after I settled down was because I felt the magic power fluctuations on him.Werther's waist is now flashing, and if the upper body is moved a little bit, the pain in the waist is unbearable, so he can only walk slowly behind the troops.
"Stand tall! Warriors of Bear Island, follow me to kill the enemy!"
Jorah Mormont once again led the Bear Island soldiers to break through the gate of the second fortress, even breaking the city wall and two gates. The morale of the soldiers was high, and Jorah also stepped up, leading the soldiers desperately inside rush.
When Werther walked slowly across the drawbridge and entered the second castle, the inside was already in chaos and full of blood and corpses. Werther's target this time was Euron Greyjoy, but he hadn't seen him before. He saw several soldiers guarding him. A person, or a person wearing armor, Werther threw a fireball at him, whether he was casual, he would rather kill the wrong one than let him go.
Soon the defenders of the second fort had been killed, and Jorah continued to lead the attack on the last fort.
On the suspension bridge, Werther suddenly saw someone using a hanging basket to descend to the surface of the sea. There was a stone more than ten meters wide on the surface of the sea, and there were several warships parked beside it. Looking carefully, there was a one-eyed dragon wearing an eyepatch in the hanging basket.
"It's you, I heard that Euron is a one-eyed dragon, so whether it's you or not, all the one-eyed dragons must die today!"
Witt hooked his feet to the ropes of the suspension bridge to stabilize his body, and continuously released fireballs with both hands. The distance was a bit far, and he could only win by counting the numbers. The fireball with his left hand was shot at the sail of the warship, and the fireball with his right hand was shot at the falling basket.
Euron Greyjoy heard that the Iron Islands fleet was defeated on Fairy Island. Robert's younger brother burned most of the ships with fire magic, and captured King's Harbor one after another. Knowing that the situation was over, he returned to Pike City to persuade his brother Balon Surrendering, Baron refused to listen and fled with his cronies. Just as the hanging basket was halfway down, a string of fireballs hit him.
The hanging basket is made of wood, and the cables are also hemp ropes. The soldiers used shields to block a few fireballs, but the flames exploded and ignited the hanging basket. People in the hanging basket could only jump from the hanging basket into the water.
Werther saw "Euron" in the hanging basket and several soldiers jumping from the burning hanging basket. Some of them were unlucky and fell on the stones and died. soldiers rescued.
[The magic power is running out, this time he can't be allowed to escape, this man is proficient in navigation, once he enters the sea, he can hardly be found. 】
Werther sent out a few more fireballs and hit the warship to catch fire everywhere. The soldiers on board also tried their best to fight the fire. The boat was their only chance to escape.At this moment Werther saw "Euron" take off the one-eyed blindfold and look at him.
~~~
Suddenly bursts of cheers came from ahead, Werther turned his head, and a soldier cut down the squid banner on the top of the castle, and the squid banner flew to the sea with the wind, and the soldiers were shouting that Balon Greyjoy was killed by Jorah Moore Ermon beheaded.
Werther looked at "Euron" again. Several of his warships had paddled far away, and the ships of his own army were all parked at King's Harbor and came from the land. Now he can only look at Euron helplessly. escape.
[Time stops? 】
Werther carefully felt the magic power of his body.
[No, the flow of magic in my brain was disturbed, it should be a kind of magic similar to the stagnation of thinking, Euron's hidden eye should belong to a magic item, or he awakened some kind of magical talent reflected in his eyes superior.I have to study related magic in the future]
"You got me wrong once this time, next time you have to pay with your life, Euron!" Werther also thought about letting Euron work for the Baratheon family, but as a time traveler, he knew Euron's original life trajectory. After careful analysis of his deeds, he came to the conclusion: this person is too ambitious, it is better to kill him in advance.
Werther looked at Robert and Ned Stark, who arrived late. According to their personalities, they must have charged into the city together, but today Robert insisted on riding a horse in order to show the majesty of the king. The terrain is uneven and rocky, and riding a horse is not as fast as walking.
[It has been more than ten years since I became a member of the Baratheon family in this world, and my thinking has unconsciously started to take the interests of the family as the criterion. The influence of the legal society in the previous life has gradually become "disregarding human life" only because of inconsistent interests. Just want to kill each other. ] Werther looked at the blood stains all over his body and couldn't help thinking.
Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooevers smth of a crowd, so Robert didn't notice Werther covered in blood, he now has the King's name to clean up the mess.Werther supported his waist and followed slowly. In the hall, Robert looked at Balon Greyjoy, who was already decapitated. Knowing that it was Jorah Mormont's credit, he made Jorah a knight on the spot.
Jorah was also a noble with the title of knight before, but he only inherited his father's title. In order to pass the title to him, his father became a night watchman himself, and this time he was personally knighted by the king on the battlefield, which is considered the highest honor. The name of Ser Jorah Mormont on the Isle of Island can henceforth spread throughout the continent.
The soldiers were searching the castle, one after another they found out the surrendered soldiers, women's family members and children and brought them to Robert to wait for the king's punishment.This campaign against the rebels had already decided the life and death of the traitors at the imperial meeting.
"All the generals of the rebel army were beheaded, the soldiers were used as laborers, and the women's families filled the camp." Robert looked at the remaining two children:
"What's your name?"
"Asha Greyjoy."
"Theon Greyjoy."
The maester stepped forward and whispered something to Robert, and Robert went on:
"Your eldest brother has already died in battle in Haijiang City, and your second brother has just died in battle in the outer city."
Robert couldn't think of a way for a while, killing children was never in his code of conduct, but these were the children of rebels again.
Eddard Stark stood up:
"I'll take these two kids. They're about Robb's age."
Neither Robert nor Ed was a murderer, and since Ned asked, Robert agreed.
The bachelors also began to carefully record military exploits and treat the wounded. The soldiers disposed of the prisoners and counted the trophies. Except for the wooden furniture, there was not even a candlestick left in the entire castle.
After a few days of recuperation in Port King, Robert gathered the captured families of the Iron Islands to hold a king election meeting in the name of the King of the Seven Kingdoms, but he was no longer called the King of the Iron Islands, but the Duke of Pike City. Responsible for leading the Iron Islands.Robert did not kill their family, but only killed those who followed Balon's rebellion, which was regarded as a great favor, so he had to abandon the tradition and accept it.
After rigorous discussions, everyone finally elected Savon Botley, who was recognized by Robert, as the Duke of Pike City in the Iron Islands.When Saven Botley accepted the title of duke, he also led all the Iron Islands to swear allegiance to Robert and never betray him.
At this point, the Iron Islands rebellion came to an end, the Greyjoy family of the sea squid was removed from the nobles of Westeros, and the territory was transferred to the Botley family. Euron Greyjoy became the most wanted criminal in the mainland.
Robert then announced that the whole army would return to Port Lannister, where they would reward those who made meritorious deeds, and take part of the spoils as prizes, and hold a tournament to celebrate the victory of this war.
Chapter 31 The Red Monk
The return journey after the victory of the war was very easy. Robert's flagship was full of his drinking buddies. When the weather was fine, everyone gathered on the deck to drink and eat meat every day. Stark, the stickler for the rules, also relaxed.
"Red Priest" Soros was originally not qualified to go up to the flagship as a mercenary, but this time he also made meritorious service and was about to be awarded the title. The guards knew him as Robert's drinking buddy and did not stop him from going up to the deck. On the Internet, I saw Renly holding the Stark family's ice greatsword to study there, and Werther explained to everyone next to him:
"Valyrian steel has a very good affinity for magic."
Everyone present only knew that Valyrian steel weapons were extremely tough and lighter than ordinary steel. The downside was that they were rare and expensive. They didn’t know about other characteristics. Now that Werther said that it was related to magic, everyone stopped. Drink and listen carefully.
Werther asked the guard for an ordinary steel sword, and said to Renly:
"Let's use the flame cloak together! Be careful not to burn the deck."
The flame cloak was originally a defensive magic, and it was equipped with destruction magic along with the clothes. When the enemy touched it, it would automatically be attacked by magic. It was used in the Red Castle and James before. The lightning cloak was used.In the world of Westeros, not only can magic be attached to the body, but also the weapons in the hand.
Werther and Renly walked to the middle of the deck, and flames ignited on their bodies, and the surrounding temperature immediately became hot, and flames also ignited on their respective swords.
Soros thought that he had to rely on wildfire to ignite his weapon, and seeing the two cast magic from scratch, with flames all over their bodies, he couldn't help but sigh that this is the real magic swordsman.
The temperature of the magic flame was much higher than that of ordinary flames. After a while, the steel sword in Werther's hand was already burnt red, and slowly softened and hung down.
