Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory

Chapter 126 The Source of Big Bear’s Suffering

The martial arts tournament was successfully held on the second day of the banquet, but it was no longer the center of the topic. There was only one person everyone was talking about, and that was Linde, the Chosen One.

The magical scenes at the banquet were spread among the people who attended the banquet. If only one or two people said this, no one would believe it, but now there are hundreds of people saying this, even all of them are at the top of the Seven Kingdoms. No one is stupid enough to think that someone can make the king and the guardian duke of the seven kingdoms lie for him.

The Bishop of the Church of the Seven in Lannisport also declared that Lind's performance last night was a miracle, a miracle of the Seven Gods, and once again emphasized that Lind was the chosen one by the Seven Gods.

Many believers of the Seven Gods in Lannisport began to flock to Lind's camp on the outskirts, wanting to see the miracle maker with their own eyes.

However, they all came to nothing, because Lind had already led his cavalry to leave Lannisport and return to Tengshi Town in the early morning.

Although Linde left, the topics related to him did not disappear, but became more and more abundant. One of the rumors about Linde attracted the attention of many people.

This rumor says that Linde was actually dead when he went into the forest to hunt bears to avenge his father. He is able to survive now because he is protected by the Seven Gods, and the Seven Gods gave him their respective powers to prepare for the upcoming events. To prepare for the evil cold darkness, he will represent the Seven Gods and fight against the White Walkers to save the world.

The story about Azor Ahai and the Lightbringer is not only well-known in the continent of Westeros, but also in the continent of Essos. This is the most widely spread prophecy of salvation in the world, and it is also the most widely believed. prophecy.

From ancient times to the present, many people in the Seven Kingdoms have believed in the prophecy of the Lightbringer, and even gave up their lives and lost their country for it. However, even so, a large number of people still believe in the legend about the reincarnation of Azor Ahai.

However, the Church of the Seven Gods does not have similar legends, nor does it recognize similar legends, until now.

No one knows when the reincarnation of Azor Ahai will appear, but the Chosen One of the Seven Gods actually appeared in front of everyone, and even showed such miraculous magic power. This made the people concerned about the Seven Gods The rumor of choosing to save the apocalypse spread rapidly, and it has great momentum to replace the legend of Azor Ahai.

Amidst various topics related to Linde, the martial arts tournament went on smoothly. Soon the archer competition and team competition all came to fruition. The final winners did not exceed everyone's expectations and were all warriors under the command of various great lords.

With the joust taking place, the public's attention temporarily shifted from the topic of Lynd to the joust, and Jorah Mormont from the North fought against the Kingslayer Jaime Lannister in the final. It's a classic.

The two sides fought against each other nine times, broke nine spears, and still could not tell the winner. In the end, King Robert stopped the contest because he could see that both sides had reached the limit of their physical strength. If they continued, both sides might fail. Kill each other, then things won't be good.

So the final championship of the lance duel was decided by King Robert to Jorah Mormont, although many people believed that such a decision was only made in favor of Jorah Mormont because King Robert did not like Jaime. Mormont's verdict, but Jaime himself had no objection to this verdict. He believed that Jorah Mormont deserved the championship crown.

After Jorah Mormont won the championship crown, he handed it directly to Lynys Hightower of the Hightower family in Oldtown, who was watching the game, and chose her to become the queen of love and beauty in the tourney.

What is surprising is that Jorah Mormont found Lord Leyton Hightower, the lord of Oldtown, that night and proposed to him to marry Lynys Hightower.

No one among the Oldtown nobles present at the time believed that the rough-looking, dark-skinned, bald Jorah Mormont was worthy of Miss Lynys, who was famous for her beauty in Oldtown, and they did not think that a remote island The earl above is qualified to be a match to the lord of Oldtown. You must know that Earl Leyton's son-in-law is Mace Tyrell, Duke of Highgarden.

However, what is even more incredible is that in the face of Jorah Mormont's proposal of marriage, Earl Leyton actually agreed directly, and that night he found Eddard Stark, Duke of the North, and Mace, Duke of Southland. Tyrell served as a witness and held the wedding for the two at the Cathedral of the Seven in Lannisport.

Early the next morning, Jorah Mormont took his new wife and sailed north to Bear Island.

Everyone was shocked by Earl Leyton's actions. You must know that everyone who has seen Lynys Hightower will be attracted by her beauty. People throughout the Seven Kingdoms who are willing to marry her can queue up from Oldtown. In the Great Wall of Despair, such a beautiful woman who had no worries about marrying was taken away by an ugly man from the north. It is hard not to believe that there is some unknown trick in it.

As a result, various rumors related to Linnis spread in Lannisport, and there are three rumors that are most recognized by the public. One is that Linnis is actually pregnant, and the person who made her pregnant is a bard. Poet, so Earl Leyton wanted to cover up this scandal, and it happened that Jorah Mormont came to propose marriage, so he anxiously married his youngest daughter to the Earl of the North.

The second rumor was that a palace servant said that Lyness had entered King Robert's bedroom. Earl Leyton did not want his daughter to become the object of King Robert's indulgence, so he married her before the matter was irreversible. Jorah Mormont.

As for the last rumor, it is the one that people think is most likely to be true. This rumor is that during the tourney, Tywin Lannister, the Duke of Westerland, hoped to marry the Hightower family in Oldtown and give birth to his son the little devil. Tyrion marries Lynys, daughter of Lord Leyton.

Earl Leyton was naturally unwilling to marry his daughter to a half-man, but he also did not want to offend Duke Tywin, so he married his daughter to the Earl of Bear Island so that Duke Tywin could not trouble him.

None of the parties concerned responded to these three claims, nor did they stop the spread of these rumors, as if they were all deaf and could not hear these rumors.

Various news about Jorah Mormont and Lynys Hightower also came one after another after Lind returned to Tengshi Town.

As a cousin, Daisy heard the relevant news and said that her cousin was so lucky because she was the one who had met Lynyce Hightower. Even a woman like her was shocked when she saw Lynyce Hightower. I'm a little moved, I can see how outstanding her beauty is.

And she was also troubled by those rumors, and felt that one of those rumors was very likely to be true, because even she, a blood relative of Jorah Mormont, believed that Jorah was not worthy of Lynys.

During one meal, she casually asked Linde which rumor he thought was true.

Lind's answer was that all the rumors were false. Lord Leyton took a fancy to Jorah Mormont's potential and ability, and he could also see that Jorah really loved his daughter, so he sent Linny to her. Si married the Earl of Bear Island, but this was not a good thing for Jorah. Jorah was going to be unlucky.

After hearing this, Daisy felt that Lind was trying to comfort her and save face for her cousin, so she didn't believe it at all.

However, she was curious about Lind saying that Jorah was going to be in trouble, but Lind did not continue.

Regarding what happened in Lannisport after they left, they were just some chat topics after dinner. For them, the most important thing now was the relocation to Linde's territory.

"When are you going to move there?" In the evening, Nymeria and Linde stood leisurely on the training ground, asking Linde, while watching Brienne and Asha using their weapons not far away. Training weapons for combat.

"Not in a short time." Linde replied, and shouted loudly towards the two people who were fighting: "Pay more attention to your feet, move your body sideways to dodge, and don't blindly block frontally."

Although Asha is five years older than Brienne, her swordsmanship is much worse than Brienne's. Except for her slightly better physical fitness, she cannot compare with Brienne in other aspects.

What's more important is that after Brienne became Lind's squire, she often fought against veterans and people proficient in actual combat such as Raul, Solo, Scar Eye, and Balin, and experienced all kinds of dirty tricks. Once again, the moves Asha learned from the Ironborn pirates were completely useless, and she was passively beaten from beginning to end.

In the end, Asha was beaten until she became bored. She threw away the long sword she used for practice, rushed in front of Brienne, hugged Brienne, threw her to the ground, and then suppressed her with her slightly superior physical fitness. Stay with Brienne.

Brienne had never seen this method before. She fought according to the way of knights' jousting, and in her understanding of jousting, it was knights holding swords. How could she have thought that someone would use wrestling to joust, and she was caught off guard? He didn't react until he was suppressed by Asha and struggled hard.

However, melee combat is also a skill of the Sea Ironborn. Asha did not give Brienne a chance at all. She always suppressed Brienne under her body and kissed Brienne teasingly from time to time, making her extremely embarrassed and even more confused. Hands and feet.

"Okay, Asha wins this round, Brienne is responsible for shoveling horse manure, and Asha takes a rest." Lind loudly stopped the two who continued to fight and announced the result.

The two got up from the ground and looked at each other. Brienne wiped the spot on her bracelet where Asha had kissed, then turned and walked towards the stable. Asha also smiled and picked up the practice sword on the ground. Followed.

Not far away, Balin, whose hand has not yet recovered, is practicing Dagon Darlo. Dagon and Asha are completely different. Asha learned all his attack methods from the Ironborn, while Dagon's attacks All his methods are knightly swordsmanship, and he feels more like a knight than Balin.

So Lind asked Balin to teach him how to fight like a real warrior, especially how to fight on a ship. After all, among his men, only Balin had the experience of fighting on a ship for a long time.

On the other side, Baelor Blackless is also receiving training from Rossos. Born as an orphan of the Green Blood River, he is born with the skills to operate a boat and all kinds of navigation knowledge. These are the knowledge passed down by their ancestors. Although some of them are no longer applicable, it is not bad to use to enlighten Baelor.

The ships that Lind obtained this time, those large ships and armed merchant ships were all handed over to Rhys Falwell to form a fleet with the Glory for trade, while the remaining Ironborn longships were He put it in the old town for repair and storage, and then took it out after he built the dock.

In the near future, Asha, Baelor and Dagon will definitely stay at sea. As for who will eventually become the fleet commander, it will depend on their respective performances.

"Have you decided where to build your lord's castle?" Nymeria asked with concern.

Linde shook his head and said, "We haven't decided yet. We won't know until we check it out on the spot."

In the ten days since he came back, apart from being busy with some messy affairs, he spent most of his time checking various information and intelligence on the Dorne border, especially the situation in Red Earth Watch and Summer Hall.

If it had been before, Lind would definitely have chosen the protruding promontory between Weir City and Stonehelm City as the construction site for the castle.

But now that King Robert had given him Summerhall, he had one more choice, and it also made it difficult for him to choose.

Judging from various information, both Red Earth Watch and Summer Hall have advantages and disadvantages. The advantages of Red Earth Watch are naturally maritime trade and its ability to affect the political situation of Dorne and Stormlands respectively, while the disadvantage is that it is too far away from Tengshi Town. There was a crimson mountain range separated by a large distance. Once something happened to Tengshi Town, he would not be able to rescue him in time unless he had a dragon that could fly over the crimson mountain range.

The situation of Summer Hall has the same obvious advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that it is very close to Tengshi Town. It only needs to pass through Green Valley City. It is located at the end of the Bone Road in the Dorne Frontier. It can trade with Dorne. At the same time, it is also located in the center of the end of the Crimson Mountains, which is the key to controlling this area. As for the disadvantage, it is too far from the ocean. It is also separated from the Redwei River Valley, which will be an important grain production area for Linde in the future, by a mountain range. Not conducive to management.

In addition, Summer Hall is not a peaceful place among many people. The tragedy of Summer Hall turned that place into a wasteland and ruins full of lonely souls. More than one person who stayed in Summer Hall has seen the people there. The ghosts reenacted the fire and felt the pain of being burned. Even the most daring adventurers would not dare to spend the night there, let alone build a castle there.

"Have you got some time recently?" Linde asked Nymeria.

Nymeria thought about it seriously and said: "All the things that need to be dealt with have been dealt with. The construction of Tengshi Town has also been completed. Next is the construction of the stone bridge and the Blackwater River Fortress. These only need to be left to the craftsmen. We'll be fine, the mines are on track, there's no need to worry about the bandits around because White Deer Wenda is here, and the operation of the caravan has been left to Bert." As she spoke, she nodded seriously and said: "I should have quite a bit of time."

Lind held Nymeria's hand and said, "In that case, please accompany me to my territory for a walk! By the way, help me choose a suitable location for building the castle."

"As you wish, my lord." Nymeria smiled and nodded.
