Chapter 7 Hundreds of Golden Dragons Who Are You Insulting?
Chapter 7 Hundreds of golden dragons, who are you insulting?
"I don't care who you are. If you are captured, you must stay honest."
The steward, gray-robed Amber, was feeling happy about the twelve fine long swords and some armors he had captured, when he suddenly heard that some bandits were so arrogant, so he scolded them without turning around.
Just as Brynden was about to reveal his identity, he saw Roger, who was also tied up not far away, winking desperately.
But Brynden ignored it.
He is the eldest son of Count Tytos of the Blackwood family. When did he suffer such injustice?
The noble man was defeated by a group of peasants, had his hands tied, and was even scolded by a low-level soldier.
"I am Brynden, the eldest son of Count Tytos. If you don't want to die, let me go immediately and apologize."
Roger felt deeply speechless for this aristocratic young man who claimed his family status.
The Brackens are a hostile family, and they didn't keep a low profile when they fell into their hands. Isn't this a pure fool?
Arthur was shocked that this young bandit actually called himself the eldest son of the earl.
It belongs to the Blackwood family not far from here.
Is the world so difficult that even the eldest son of an earl comes out to rob someone?
Then he shook his head and got rid of his unrealistic thoughts.
Suddenly, Arthur had an epiphany.
The 80-year-old was the earl's eldest son.
Because the bandits found standard armor that obviously only a big noble could afford.
The difference between armor and weapons is that a blacksmith who makes wood axes or dung forks can also make swords and other weapons, but armor cannot.
Anywhere, those who play armor are big forces.
As for a large number of armors of a unified style, they can only be found by the feudal lords of one side.
Although the world of Game of Thrones should not have the concepts of assembly line production, tolerances, etc., the weapon workshops of large families can unify the details.
Standard armor, in the Riverlands, must at least come from the Tullys of Riverrun, the Freys of Twins, the Blackwoods of Raventree, Lord Bracken of Stonehedge, and Mellis of Seaside City.
Only a big family like the Te family can equip it.
Just like the Arthur family, there are three different types of armor, ten sets were purchased at Lannister Port in the West, five sets were purchased in King's Landing, and the other twenty sets were given by the Lord Bracken.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for this small territory of the Arthur family to have such a high armor rate and at the same time accumulate such a "huge sum" of seven hundred golden dragons.
After realizing something was wrong, he ordered: "Go check him out."
The two soldiers received the order and walked over to prepare for a body search.
"No need to search, he is from the Blackwood family." Yule reminded him loudly.
"Since you already know my identity, why don't you let me go?" Brynden shouted.
Arthur looked confused, does this guy know how to live or die?
Being captured is so arrogant!
Although Westeros has a tradition of not killing captured nobles, does he really think that being a noble is a gold medal to avoid death?
Arthur was about to ridicule Brynden, but Amber walked up to the lord with a serious face and whispered:
"Since he is really a member of the Blackwood family, let's just let him go."
"Are you smart?" Arthur asked, "These are bandits who invaded my home."
Then he shouted to the soldiers who were still cleaning the battlefield: "Hurry up and clean up, we will leave immediately."
Since this place is on Blackwood's territory, it's best to leave as soon as possible.
Amber was a little anxious and advised: "Their family is very powerful and we can't afford to offend them, so we let them go."
"Even if he is really the eldest son of an earl, he is a serious nobleman, and he pretends to be a bandit and comes to rob my village. This is not right. We are reasonable in this matter, but I will let it go respectfully.
he."
"Then what should we do with him? If he doesn't do it right, Count Tytos can attack us on the grounds that his son has been captured." Amber looked worried.
Arthur walked to the horse brought by the soldiers, got on the horse, and then said to Amber: "Then let his father, the earl, pay to ransom him."
He rubbed his index finger and thumb, "Without hundreds of golden dragons, this Brynden will just stay in our cellar."
At this time, the soldiers had tied the twelve prisoners in a row and were on their way.
Brynden happened to be not far away at this time. After hearing what Arthur said, he said angrily: "You actually insulted me with hundreds of gold dragons. Do you know the meaning of Blackwood's eldest son?"
"The eldest son of Blackwood means the prisoner of my Arthur Bracken. What's wrong, do you still think the price is too low?"
Arthur rode forward, keeping pace with the eldest son.
"It's not just low, you simply don't treat me as a human being. Without a price of several thousand gold dragons, you wouldn't want my father to redeem me." Brynden said angrily.
Arthur Yile, there is such a reverse bargaining person.
But when I thought about it again, it made sense.
After all, the most important thing for these nobles is face.
A powerful Earl like Brynden, the eldest son, might only be captured once in his life.
If you bid too low, you may really lose his face.
Word spread that the eldest son of the Earl of the Blackwood family was only worth a few hundred gold dragons. What did others think?
Are the nobles of the Riverlands so poor that they can compete with the nobles of the North?
If things go wrong, this will be a lifelong joke for the future Earl Brynden.
The group of people walked far away, and Brynden was still shouting. Sometimes he was let go, and sometimes he was tied a little looser, and he was saying something about how one hundred and fifty soldiers were about to attack soon.
There are three thousand soldiers in his family, enough to destroy Arthur's family.
All in all, it's restless.
Arthur ignored him and silently opened the panel.
You have reached level two, and you have gained one attribute point, two skill points, and ten weapon proficiencies.
Attributes continue to add strength, two skill points add iron bones, which can save lives, and ten weapon points continue to add two-handed weapons.

[Weapon proficiency: 74 for one-handed weapons, 95 for two-handed weapons, 77 for pole weapons, 31 for bows and arrows, 31 for crossbows, and 31 for throwing]
Based on Mo Shan's physique, he is estimated to have the strength of twenty.
As long as Arthur increases his strength to 20 and his agility to around 18, he will have no problem protecting himself from the Mountain.
Along the way, Amber always felt unsafe and repeatedly persuaded Arthur to let Brynden go and not mess with the Blackwood family.
Arthur didn't listen, but ordered to speed up.
Wait until you get to your own little castle.
As for the ransom, we have to find the head of the Bracken family, Jesseno, to come forward.
If Arthur had foolishly gone up to ask for ransom, he might have been killed by troops, and he wouldn't even be able to save the small castle.
Arthur can still tell the difference between a golden dragon and a small life.
Considering the grudge between the Bracken and Blackwood families, I think Earl Jesno would be happy to see Brynden captured.
According to Brynden's prompts, Arthur thought that he could get two to three thousand gold dragons this time, and he would give half of them to Earl Jesno, so he would get more than a thousand gold dragons no matter what.
Dinar is the way to go.
Arthur was happily thinking about the money he had received, when he suddenly heard Amber's voice:
"Sir, there are soldiers chasing you."
