Rowan looked at Werther: "It is said that there are not many White Walkers. Duke Werther could kill six White Walkers alone when he was 17 years old. Now that there are so many magicians in the Seven Kingdoms, it shouldn't be difficult to deal with White Walkers, right?"

"I was able to defeat the White Walkers because they didn't know me! If I had met their leader, the Night King, I probably wouldn't be able to come back."

A purple light glowed on Werther's hand, and with a slight push, a purple magic group appeared in front of the conference table.

The demon king came across the plane, and before his body was condensed, the words came out first: "Dragonborn, are you going to fight the dragon again? My sword is too strong!"

The demon maharaja didn't wear a helmet, and he wore dark and ferocious demon armor. His brown-black skin with red facial lines, and the two curved horns on his head made it look like he wasn't human.

As the body of the demon maharaja condensed into a solid body, the strong smell of blood and sulfur on his body instantly filled the meeting room, and several imperial guards became nervous.And the demon maharaja stared at Xiaolong intently, and Xiaolong also stared at him and let out a low roar from his throat.

Fortunately, the people sitting here are well-informed. They have seen many elements and corpses summoned by the magician, and they were summoned by Werther, so it was definitely not for killing people.

In the game, you can learn skills with a click of the mouse, which doesn't work in this world.All magic requires learning a lot of theoretical knowledge, and summoning magic needs to communicate with the sub-plane to summon it.Except for the undead that do not need to communicate, summoning fire, ice, and storm elements must communicate with the subplane.

There is a real demon god behind the devil, and it is not a good thing to make a contract with the devil. Werther has not written a book for fear of causing trouble, and only Werther knows this magic.

There are only two demons in Werther's summoning contract, and they are the ones who are summoned every time.And these two demons are not real demon kings in their annihilation domain, but relatively low-level demon warriors.Call them demon kings, just because the summoning contract does not say so, no demon will sign a contract with you.

With so many people present, Werther also saved him some face. He didn't want to expose the fact that the two of them gave Duneville a pedicure in Meereen last time: "This time it's not a murder, it's a martial arts match. Remember! Go to the end!"

"Martial arts competition is also possible, can you see blood?" The devil licked his lips.

"As long as I don't cut off my head and limbs, I can save it." Werther said to several Kingsguards: "In addition to magic, the White Walker is also very powerful and martial arts. This is a demon from another plane. He His martial arts are very similar to those of the White Walkers, so you can experience the fighting power of the White Walkers."

Hearing that it was a martial arts contest with people from other planes, Barristan, Captain of the Kingsguard, was the first to stand up: "I'll do it!"

"No, your sword is at a disadvantage against the demon's weapon, and it's easy to break if it hits his armor. Come, Sir Lynn Corbray!" Werther called out his names directly.

....

The meeting room was very large, and the demon king walked to the wide area and took off the two-handed giant sword on his back. Barristan carefully observed the demon's armor and the hideous and exaggerated giant sword, and then looked at the steel on his waist. Jian, after thinking about it, patted Lynn Corbray on the shoulder and said, "Go all out, you represent the honor of our Kingsguard!"

Seeing what the captain said, several other Kingsguards who were eager to try also withdrew their minds, and they all came to pat Lynn's arm to show encouragement.

Lynn nodded to everyone, drew out the Valyrian steel sword "Lady Kongji" she was wearing and walked up to the demon, flung the white cloak behind her, and assumed a posture that could be attacked and defended.

Being able to become the Kingsguard, martial arts can be regarded as the top group of people in the Seven Kingdoms. Everyone who watched the battle wanted to know the gap between Lin En and the devil, that is, the gap between the White Walker.

"Haha, come on!" The demon king provocatively held the giant sword in both hands.

Lin En took the initiative to charge, raised his long sword and slashed hard.

clang!

The two swords clashed, and the sound of Valyrian steel and demon weapons colliding was clear and bright. It was heard far outside the meeting room. The soldiers in Highgarden outside the door thought there was a battle and rushed in with their hands. The Duke of Mace waved his hand. To stop the action, all crowded at the door to watch the battle.

With Werther on the side to supervise the devil, he didn't slack off, and went through a few tricks with Lynn.

"what!"

The demon's movements suddenly became faster, and the giant sword in his hand swung continuously as if it had no weight. Another sudden change of direction, from a downward heavy slash to a sweep, cut a line of Lin En's light golden armor belly with one blow. mouth.

bump!

Lin En blocked the sword, and the demon suddenly kicked out, sending Lin En flying four or five meters away.

As long as the head or limbs are not beheaded, the devil knows the effect of magic. Before Lynn can get up, he jumps over again, using the weight of his body when he jumps up and falls, and stabs Lynn in the stomach with his sword.

"Be careful!"

When Lynn saw it, he quickly rolled half a circle. When he just lifted his feet and stood up, the demon had already changed his move. The tip of the giant sword wiped the floor, leaving a long scratch and came towards him.

clang!

Reluctantly raising his sword to block it, the demon rolled over Lin En's body. The huge sword in his hand saw off Lin En's shoulder armor like a saw, and cut off Lin En's right collarbone.

Lin En, who couldn't use his right hand, immediately switched the sword to his left hand. When he stood up and turned around, the giant sword had pierced the armor in his abdomen from the side. When the demon held the hilt of the sword with both hands and was about to lift him up, Sweeping the demon's face with his right hand, he pierced the demon's throat with a sword when the blood covered his eyes.

"Stop!" Werther told the two to separate, and at the same time released healing magic on Lynn.

The devil pulled the giant sword out of Lin En's abdomen, and walked aside to touch his pierced throat. A hole was opened but it didn't have any major impact, and he was still able to move freely.And Lin En was sitting on the ground gasping for breath, exhausted from bursting out with all his strength, and also frightened by the fear of approaching death.

"How?" With Werther present, Lynn must be fine. Barristan asked Lynn about the situation of the battle, and only the person involved knew best.

It took Lin En a while to recover. After standing up, he looked at the devil who was poking the hole in his head with his finger, and turned to everyone and said, "The strength, speed and reaction are far superior to human beings. I know I can't beat them." Only by using the body as bait in exchange for a chance to attack."

....

Werther: "Linn is now at his peak age, and with his martial arts skills, he can barely do one-for-one. Also, don't forget, every White Walker knows ice magic, and there are hundreds of thousands of corpses around him." ghost!"

Everyone felt a chill, they couldn't kill the ghosts without cleaning up the ghosts, and if they didn't kill the ghosts, the ghosts it resurrected with magic were endless.Unless you use magic that is powerful enough to smash the city wall like Werther to open the way, you can only use human life to open the way, and the soldiers will turn into ghouls when they die, an endless loop!

Duke Metz wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "It's also possible that the demon's weapons and armor have an advantage?"

"The Others are an intelligent race. They also have ice armor and weapons. Their strength is similar to this." Werther condensed another sword of ice armor and spears and put them on the table. Everyone gathered around. Barristan drew out his steel sword and began to fight. Try ice armor.

Several Kingsguard began to discuss tactics with Robert, others were studying magic armor, and Renly could also make magic armor. He was not interested in this, so he walked to the devil with Werther.

There was a strong smell from the devil, and Renly, who was studying the devil, breathed a sigh of relief and quickly backed away.

Werther raised his hand to use dispel magic: "Today's business is over, you should go back."

The devil suddenly looked at Werther and said, "Master Melunez wants to talk to you!"

Fuck, what is there to talk about with him!It is enough to be in contact with the lowest demon in his domain. Werther doesn't want to have anything to do with the demon, but now he is approached: "Is it through you?"

Demon: "My lord will talk to you directly, and you will know when you call me tomorrow night."

Werther didn't ask the reason or the specific content. When dealing with a wily and calculating demon god, he had to pretend to be serious so as not to be tricked: "Okay, say hello to him for me."

Werther cast the dispelling magic, and when the demon's body began to dissipate, Renly in the distance asked, "Can the demon's armor be taken off?"

"No!" Werther didn't speak, but the demon who was in a translucent state spoke.

This dragonborn is too greedy, and the mortals around him are also greedy!No wonder Mehrunes-sama wants to talk to this kind of person. The power held by Mehrunes Dagon is the demon god who controls change, energy and ambition.

Varys was not too interested in armor and swords. Seeing Werther walking back to the conference table, he asked, "Isn't there a green prophet who knows the history and the future outside the Great Wall? Can he provide us with information about the White Walkers?"

Werther raised a finger and shook: "The most powerful of the White Walkers is their leader, known as the Night King. He has a special ability to have a spiritual link with all the White Walkers. That is to say What a White Walker sees can be known to all White Walkers through the ability of the Night King." Varys then asked, "So why haven't the White Walkers attacked the Greenseer for so long?"

What he means is obvious, is it possible that the Green Prophet and the White Walkers are together.

Werther also understood what he was thinking: "The White Walker, the Green Prophet, and the Children of the Forest all live in the extreme north, where the conditions are harsh and life is very difficult. According to my judgment, if it is a non-war period, they have reached a tacit understanding with each other. , without interfering with each other’s lives.”

Varys: "If the war between the White Walkers and humans starts, can the Green Prophet deal with the White Walkers?"

Werther: "The contemporary Green Prophet can't even walk with a tree. Once a war starts, the White Walkers will attack him, and he can only rely on magic defense. Once his magic power is exhausted, he will die, so I There is still a deal with the Green Prophet, help him complete the inheritance!"

Chapter 270 Southward Relocation Plan

After Werther’s explanation, the few people who hold the highest power in the Seven Kingdoms finally understand what the ghosts are. Once the ghosts and humans go to war, they will definitely die. The map of the Seven Kingdoms is laid out on the table for your reference.

Varys: "Don't we still have the Great Wall? Duke Werther also said that the Great Wall is a magical creation. Once these undead creatures touch the Great Wall, they will turn into fly ash!"

Werther: "Because it is a magical creation, the magic power of all the Great Wall also has an upper limit. As far as I know, the magic circle at the bottom of the Great Wall has been in operation for thousands of years, and the source of magic power should be to absorb free magic power from the air. No matter how powerful the magic Creations cannot withstand long-term consumption. Once the magic power of the Great Wall is exhausted, it will collapse. Ghouls don’t need to eat and sleep. If they can’t break through the Great Wall in a day, how about a month? How about two months?”

Robert looked irritated: "The information is blank, and the Great Wall is not suitable for human survival. We really can only let it develop and passively defend?"

The king questioned all present, and they all looked at Werther at the same time.

Werther spread his hands: "This is a life-and-death war, and every living person is inevitable! Our ancestors fought against the White Walkers, but they were not wiped out. Now the White Walkers' savings have long made a comeback. Going south is for us. Said it might be a chance to wipe them out!"

Duke of Metz: "Completely wiped out?"

Werther asked, "Does the Duke of Mace want to keep the White Walkers for the New Year?"

Mace quickly waved his hand: "That's not what I meant, I just wanted to say that the White Walkers can really be wiped out completely?"

"They are all magical creatures, even powerful dragons can be wiped out, let alone the White Walkers! The White Walkers are very powerful, but they reproduce slowly, while humans reproduce quickly and have quick thinking. It should be said that humans and White Walkers have their own advantages!" Werther said. This is to give everyone confidence, but in fact I have no idea.

The White Walkers are so good at hiding, if they leave two of them in the north when their army goes south, they can regain their power after hundreds of years.

The White Walkers can hide at the bottom of a frozen lake or dig a hole to bury themselves, plus the thick ice and snow cover, which requires a large number of magicians to drive the magic of detecting undead to carry out the carpet.But that was the Northland, where the mages would freeze to death if they were not careful in bad weather.This is not a bad situation. If a strange ghost jumped into the sea with a stone in his arms and hid on the bottom of the sea hundreds of meters deep, how would he find it?

"Then the entire northern border will become a battlefield! Ed alone can't defeat the White Walkers." Robert finished looking at the map, stood up and pointed at Werther: "Werther, you are the chief archmage of the Seven Kingdoms, and so are the White Walkers. Magical creatures, now they are about to start a war. I now formally order that, except for the command of the war, you will be responsible for all matters related to the White Walkers, and you will collect all the documents and ask me to sign them. Renly, you will be the deputy."

The magician took the lead in solving the magic matters, and the other ministers had no objections.Robert, who had just contracted a serious illness, really didn't have the heart to deal with these terrible things now, and he was more at ease if Werther shared it.

In essence, Werther has always been promoting the defense against the White Walkers. Now that Robert has made a formal appointment at the Imperial Council, and has also listed the defense against the White Walkers as a war preparation level, he will receive more support. ....

Witte: "Okay, let's continue the analysis."

"I listen to Werther." Renly would not object.

"According to the forecast of the city, this winter will be very long and very cold, which paves the way for the white ghosts to go south." Werther pointed to the narrowest place in the middle of the Westeros continent: "It is estimated that in two years the entire North The surrounding area will be covered with ice and snow, the snow line is always south of the Neck, the peaks of the valley will also be covered with ice and snow, and the river land, western border and Wangling area will also become very cold. Snow is possible in both stormlands."

The people present were either from noble families, knights or officials. They were all people who were separated from low-level production, full-time management and martial arts. They didn't hear the hidden meaning of Werther's words. Only Renly was the first to react.

"North of the king's land, a large amount of land will not be able to be cultivated, and the south of Wangling has changed from two to three seasons a year to only one or two seasons! People in many places can only live by hunting, at most one year. Every year, prey will be greatly reduced, and many people will starve to death!"

[Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used audio book, integrated with 4 speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and an artifact that supports offline reading,.】

Hearing what Renly said, everyone shuddered. There are white ghosts from the north who are about to go south, and now there is another famine!

Werther: "As long as it's not the White Walkers, there is a solution to the famine caused by winter."

The problem of famine never occurred to Robert, so he just said, "Tell me about it!"

Witt: "The stormlands and river bends in the south are now planted with a large number of cash crops. Replanting part of the fields to grain can greatly alleviate the food shortage problem."

"Impossible!" Duke Mace immediately refused.

This time, it wasn't the Duke of Mace who spoke without thinking, but almost all the nobles in the Seven Kingdoms thought this way, including Robert and Renly.

The Seven Kingdoms implemented a system of enfeoffment. The land belonged to each duke, and they were assigned to each earl. The earl could manage it himself or entrust it to his knights or knights again.

According to the legal provisions for thousands of years, farmers pay agricultural products or money taxes to landowners, earls pay to dukes, and dukes turn over to the treasury, step by step.The basic land and population are regarded as private property, and no one can dictate their own private property. The lord can plant whatever he wants, even if the king orders it!

Unless there is a major change, this ingrained pattern is almost unshakable. Any behavior that wants to move other people's private property will be hostile by all nobles, and even use force.

Werther's Stone Step Islands were also affected by this and developed slowly.The several enfeoffed earls and jazz under him all rely on their families to support their money and population.Werther only got the support of Stormland and Wang Ling. Back then, Renly only dared to call for the lords below to send out their own people, and did not dare to force recruitment. That is to say, Stormland has developed too fast for more than ten years, and the birth rate is too high. Mass immigration needs.In addition to supporting property, there were very few immigrants from the royal area, and Werther had to capture the criminals in King's Landing and exile them into the army.And Werther wants to have no population in other regions.

Then now is the opportunity. ....

Werther was not annoyed, and still smiled and said, "When have I ever let my friends suffer? Duke of Metz, don't worry, let me explain to you."

The Grand Maester was away, and Yin Lisi called a Kingsguard to sit at the conference table to take notes.After Yinlis understood what Werther said, he would definitely convey it to other nobles.

Witte looked at the Duke of Mace: "Take your industry as an example. About one-third of the land in Highgarden and the Reach is planted with food, and two-thirds are planted with cash crops, such as sugar cane, cocoa, flowers, etc. These Who do you sell the final product from the crop to?"

Duke of Metz thought for a while: "Nobles and commoners."

Werther understands that he doesn't want to disclose this kind of business secrets, but his business is all guided by Werther, and he has industrial relations with Stormland. For the industrial crowd, the real profits come from the consumption of the aristocracy.

Witte went on to say: "If the common people starve to death, then the nobles will have no taxes, and they will also become poor. At that time, who will you sell your products to?"

Mace smiled: "When a nobleman falls, a new nobleman will take over his land."

Werther: "Then how does this new nobleman farm land for him?"

Mace: "The new nobles will bring a group of people over."

Witte: "The land here is covered with snow and cannot be planted, and people will starve to death."

"This..." Duke Mace wanted to say that it depends on the cow, and the cow needs to be controlled by people, but the people are already starving to death, so he took back the words.

"Winter is approaching! The best commodity in this cold winter period is food! The nobles can only buy food to feed their own people, but the people can't farm land. They can help the lord fight or accept employment from other lords. They hand over money to Nobles, they will survive this cycle.”

Werther taps on the table:

"The profit of food is definitely not as high as that of high-end goods, but as long as people are still alive, there will be demand for them when they recover. The king also has to issue an order. In addition to increasing reasonable shipping costs, the price of food cannot be driven up. Although it is less profitable to grow food, But in the future, I will gain a good name and good popularity, so why worry about not making a lot of money when summer comes!"

"Yeah!" Robert was nodding, not sure if he understood.

"I agree with Werther's proposal. I will not go back to Tyrosh this time. I will gather the vassals of the Stormlands to do a massacre and let them grow food instead." Renly was the first to express his support, Werther Nod to Renly.

In fact, most of the storm areas are high mountains and hills, and the hillsides are full of fruit trees, so there is not much arable land.Most of the industries of the various lords are agricultural product processing, handicrafts and metal manufacturing. Most of the raw materials for agricultural products come from the River Bend, and the sales place is also half of the eastern and western continents.What Renly said was in vain, purely in support of Werther.

Werther thought of Metz again and said, "The weather is getting colder and colder now. You have to wear two clothes when you go shopping in King's Landing. In two years, the north will be covered with snow. Will rich nobles still buy luxury goods? They will only Buy food without letting your own 'property, starve to death."

Robert also said at this time: "Don't forget that we still have to face the White Walkers! If the people of the Seven Kingdoms are going to die, they must die on the battlefield fighting the White Walkers, not starve to death by the roadside!"...

"I understand. If you earn less, earn less. I will gather vassals like Duke Renly did." Mace reluctantly accepted this condition.

Seeing the Duke of Metz's promise, Werther did not continue to exert pressure on the Reach, and the replanting of agricultural products could not be done immediately.But Werther plans to talk to Little Rose Margaery after returning to Tyrosh, and ask her to make up her mind for Duke Metz.

"According to the food output of the Reach and the Stormlands, it is estimated that it would not be able to feed so many people in the Seven Kingdoms." Varys looked at Werther, and motioned Werther to tell us the solution to another part of the food.

Werther: "Tyrosh recently acquired a large piece of land in the disputed land, and Westeros suffered severe cold, so I decided to lease the land at a price of one silver stag per hectare per year!"

"Lease? For one hectare of land, one silver deer can be rented for a year?" The Duke of Metz couldn't even close his mouth.

Varys smiled: "Don't be surprised, it's all wasteland, and it takes a lot of effort to cultivate it. One hectare is fifteen acres, and there is only one silver deer a year, which is equivalent to giving away for nothing."
