After three days at sea, Lynn's fleet sailed out of Slaver's Bay and entered the Gulf of Sorrow. If they wanted to return to Westeros, they had to make a big circle to bypass the ruins of Valyria.
The captain of the boat that Lynn rented was named Eugene. He was an old sailor in his fifties. He spent most of his life floating on the sea.
While passing by the ruins of Valyria broken into countless pieces, the old captain Eugene told Lynn the story of the end of Valyria.
Valyria's nomadic ancestors discovered dragons, found a way to tame them, and established a powerful nation called the Valyrian Freehold.
At its peak, Valyria had more than three hundred dragons! Any enemy in front of them would only be burned to charcoal!
They rode dragons and conquered almost the entire continent of Essos,
Then suddenly one day,
The end is coming!
Peaks five hundred miles around Valyria erupted simultaneously, pouring countless ash, smoke and fire into the sky.
The cracked earth engulfed Valyria's proud palaces, temples and towns. Lakes boiled or turned to acid, mountains erupted, fountains shot lava high into the sky, and fiery clouds rained down dragonglass.
and the rain formed by the black blood of the devil. In the north, the earth disintegrated and shattered, and the raging sea water poured back to fill the sunken earth. In the blink of an eye, the proudest and greatest city in the world was destroyed in an instant, and the prestigious Fort Liberty and its empire
From then on, the land of Changxia was instantly disintegrated and destroyed, and fell under the waves.
The family with only one Targaryen left moved to a small island across the narrow sea in advance and survived.
The old captain narrated this epic episode in a measured tone,
In Lin En's mind, there was a picture of countless volcanoes erupting at the same time. Dark clouds covered the sky. Countless thunder and lightning fell crazily on the lava flowing on the earth. Thunder and fire were intertwined. Under such a natural disaster, even the soaring dragon in the sky could only
Pieces upon pieces were burned into coke,
The continent is broken and the empire sinks!
This disaster tore the land around the city of Valyria into countless small islands. The smoke between these islands persisted for many years, and it was called the "Devil's Land" Sea of Smoke.
Lin En was fascinated by fantasy, and his little finger felt slightly warm. He looked down and saw that the little white dragon opened its mouth and was biting his finger. He raised his arm, and the little white dragon swayed back and forth like a pendant.
He laughed,
This little one finally cheered up!
The poor little thing has been whining and refusing to eat since it woke up. Linn kept comforting it through the spiritual connection between them. Until now, the little white dragon finally regained some vitality.
At least I know how to bite him!
"A great start! To celebrate your new life! Let me give you a new name! My naming skills have always been well received!"
Lin En held Xiao Long in his arms and showed off his long-practiced cat licking skills.
Xiaolong was still struggling at first, but the big hands on his back were too powerful, and his resistance was ineffective, and he was ruthlessly suppressed.
Lin En's strength penetrated deep into the muscles through the scales and flowed along the joints. His touch seemed to come from the inside out, making Xiaolong feel comfortable as he had never felt before.
"Gululu!"
Xiaolong's belly made a purring sound similar to that of a kitten when it felt comfortable. He slumped in Linn's arms, his tail wagging gently, and he seemed to be in a better mood.
"By the way, are you a male or a female? Let me see!" Lin En suddenly remembered something and was about to turn the little dragon over to check.
With a "swish", the little dragon's tail was tightly curled up and covered in the middle of the body. The body struggled violently and suddenly opened its small mouth and spit out a stream of golden flames.
The "little fireball" hit Linn's face. It didn't cause any harm to him, but it blackened one of his eyes! It was like being punched.
"Okay, okay! If you don't want to, forget it, are you still shy?" Lin En put it down helplessly. Relying on the spiritual connection between him and Xiaolong, he felt a feeling of shame and anger.
Every dragon has some kind of spiritual connection with the people close to it. As Linn's mental power has returned to the initial level of demigod, in addition to the fact that his mental power can cover a large city, the area of his personal space has also changed.
It became as huge as a city.
Since the demigod carries the word "god", compared with the legend, it is by no means a simple increase in power. He also begins to understand some of the demigod's magical powers.
The contract with him or the oath made to him will be bound. Although this restraint is still very small, the special features of divinity are still reflected.
For example, when Daenerys nodded that day and said the deal was completed, the connection between her and Xiaolong was broken and transferred to Linn.
This is a little female dragon. Perhaps because of Daenerys' incident, its character is somewhat delicate and sensitive, and it can accurately capture other people's intentions.
Lin En looked at the vast sea of smoke in the distance, and a name suddenly appeared in his mind,
"Haiqin Yan!"
"From now on, let's call you Haiqinyan, okay?"
…
A month later, they bypassed the ruins of Valyria and came to the halfway station Volantis for supplies.
Their fleet has a large number of people, and everyone staying on the ship for a long time consumes a lot of supplies. In addition, there are some people who are not accustomed to life on the ship and need to rest.
While supplying supplies at the port, Linn heard the news about Daenerys.
Rumor has it that she broke the deal, captured Astapor, liberated all the slaves in the city, and sentenced all good masters over the age of twelve to death! Then she began to besiege another large slave trading city, Yunkai!
This incident really touched too many people's cakes.
Among the city-states in the continent of Essos, except for Braavos and Pentos, all more or less follow the slavery system. And the economic and trade relations between them are also closely related to the slavery system.
The Dostarks, they plundered everywhere and bought the robbed people to Slaver's Bay in exchange for gold, silver and handicrafts.
Slaver's Bay trained these slaves into slaves for different uses.
For example, Astapor mainly trains Unsullied warriors; the Yunkai people mainly train bed slaves; and the Meereen people mainly train gladiators.
These slaves were sold throughout the Essos continent in exchange for their handicrafts, food and other items.
In this case, a simple trade triangle is formed, which is related to the core interests of many cities in mainland China.
It can be said that Dragon Mother's commotion immediately angered most of the ruling class. Volantis, where Lin En is currently shrinking, is preparing a huge fleet of more than 300 warships to help the slaves.
Bay restores order!
In addition, Qarth, New Giles and Slaver's Bay are the other four cities that are slightly closer and will not stand idly by.
Long Ma will face all kinds of pressure from inside to outside.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Lin En, who is happily teasing his little dragon "Haiqin Yan"!
