The Bizarre Adventure of the Warhammer Elves

Chapter 304
———The Great Wall, Castle Black

"Haha~ Your place is too dilapidated, isn't it? There is only one dilapidated stove in such a large living room, and the living conditions are too poor, right?"

In the Great Hall of Castle Black, wearing a velvet coat, Isabel sat in the seat of the former commander-in-chief of the Night Watch with some dissatisfaction, looking at the dilapidated castle with disgust.

It's not that Isabel is greedy for enjoyment. After all, although she is now a queen who unifies the world, she is not a vase that cannot bear hardships.

But the living conditions of the night watchmen are really bad. Is such a ventilated environment really for people to live in?

Look at the windows with wooden boards to block the wind and the creaking gates, not to mention comparing it with Gran Town and the Chloe Empire, even the life of the slaves in Gran Town is several times better than this!
After all, since the "slavery reform" in Grand Town, even the humblest Beastman slaves can be allocated their own single room in a brick house, but life is still miserable:

They are forced to work eight hours a day, and only provide three simple meals a day plus one meat meal. At the same time, they can only take energy bars for breakfast, and their lunch break is only one hour;
Extra work can only be rewarded with a bowl of broth, compulsory exercise for an hour after get off work to ensure the quality of slaves, and only a short time to relax on weekends;

The most frightening thing is that only slaves who can survive under this cruel slavery for four years are eligible for the position of team leader who manages other slaves, and they have to face bullying and insults from the slave masters, which can be described as horrible!

However, it is precisely because of the harsh conditions of slave life that the night watchman can't even maintain basic meat and lodging, it's really pitiful~
But Isabel didn't know that the reason why Grand Town could grow to such a large scale in such a short period of time was inseparable from those loyal slaves.

After all, compared with the current slave life, the life of these low-level beasts and slave rats who were originally at the bottom of society is even more miserable.

Not enough to eat and not to wear warm is just a daily routine, and it is normal to be whipped by the superiors. Sometimes they even find out in horror that the military rations are mine.

In contrast, the current life is simply paradise for them!
"This honorable lady, you may not understand the duties and obligations of the night watchman. This is not a place worthy of your pick and choose. I wonder where you are from?"

Old Xiong frowned and looked at Isabel, who was sitting on the main seat, who was picking and choosing. He was forced by dozens of giant dragons and the vigilance of the other party's unknown identity, so he agreed to the other party's rest in Castle Black.

But that didn't mean he would accept this unidentified woman's insult to the duty of the Night's Watch!
Hearing Xiong Lao's question, the northern nobles in the audience looked at the silver dragon knights who were on guard in the hall, waiting for orders from Ed at any time.

In their view, these unknown knights who came by dragon are likely to be the avengers who returned from the overseas branch of the Targaryen family, preparing to conquer Westeros again.

As for the Stark family and the Northern Territory, who overthrew the Targaryen dynasty during the usurper war, it is estimated that they will not be able to escape the fate of liquidation and destruction, right?

'A bunch of fools and fools! '

Looking at the northern nobles who put their hands on their weapons, the corners of Roose Bolton's mouth couldn't help twitching slightly.

Through this brief communication during this period, he already knew that these silver dragon knights and that woman were not members of the Targaryen family at all, and should be another force that could control the dragon.

There is a high probability that such foreign nobles or unknown forces will not abide by the so-called guest etiquette in Westeros, right?
Showing hostility first in such an unknown state, isn't it courting death!

"Put down your weapons, mortals, and don't let us notice any dangerous actions of yours!"

Sure enough, seeing the restlessness of this group of northern nobles, the silver dragon knights, who had never eaten bread and salt at all, held the long swords around their waists, with murderous intent in their eyes.

They were not gentle and warm men who were formerly the young nobles of Pendor. Coupled with the blessings of Ms. Misty and Rohan, they had already made them look down on ordinary indigenous humans with arrogance.

If these aboriginal nobles really dared to show any disrespect, then they would not mind swinging their butcher knives at these unrelated fellows!
Sensing that the swords were on the verge of breaking out in the hall, Roose Bolton hurriedly untied the saber from his waist, and quietly signaled to the Silver Dragon Knight behind him that he was not hostile, while smoothing things over:
"You don't need to be so impatient. I suggest that you put down your weapons and talk calmly. May I ask this lady, why did you lead so many dragons to the Great Wall?"

"Finally a wise man!"

Seeing that there was finally a nobleman who could communicate normally, Isabel slowly withdrew her hand holding the staff tightly. She was already a little disgusted with chatting with reckless men.

Yesterday, she complained to the head of the Great Wall that the life of the Night Watchman was worse than that of the slaves in Granville. This was a perfectly normal joke.

Unexpectedly, Ed claimed that "the slave trade in the northern border is illegal", and even prepared to use this as an excuse to arrest Isabel and the Silver Dragon Knights who had left the dragon.

If it wasn't for that girl named Shirley who tried her best to stop him, I'm afraid the Duke of the North would have been killed by her sucking all the blood with thorns and vines!
Thinking of this, Isabel looked gently at the white-haired girl beside her who was holding a wine glass and pretending nothing happened, and then said to the silent Ed:

"I came to the Great Wall only for three things: to prevent any living things from passing through the Great Wall, to kill the White Walkers who might flee here, and to have normal conversations with you.

But your duke doesn't seem very friendly, and seems to be very confused about our social system, so let's wait for Lol to bring the army to talk to you. "

"White ghosts? Army?"

Roose Bolton was keenly aware of the two pieces of news revealed in Isabel's words, and then sat back in his seat silently, lost in thought.

It seems that in addition to these silver armored knights riding giant dragons, this force also has a powerful army marching towards the Great Wall, even capable of defeating the legendary White Walkers...?
Roose Bolton was a little confused, because even now, he always thought that the threat to the land beyond the wall was the army of hundreds of thousands of wildlings.

Are ghosts actually real?
Ed focused on the first half of Isabel's sentence, and then asked angrily:
"Don't let any living creature pass through the Great Wall. What about the free people in the land beyond the Great Wall? Who can guarantee that they will be safe from the threat of the strange ghost?"

However, before Ed continued to question, several figures in purple armor suddenly opened the gate of Castle Black, and then the leading figure jokingly said:

"Calm down, human duke, you're talking to an empress now!"

Isabel looked up and saw that Lisa Dilan was leading several Silver Mist hunters with two swords into the hall of Castle Black, her face was full of disdain for the nobles from the north present.

It is not difficult to see from the bloodstains on the sword edge and armor that are dripping blood that they have obviously experienced a bloody massacre not long ago.

After a few days, I finally saw an acquaintance. Isabel looked at the blood on Sadilan's body in surprise, and then asked curiously:
"Lisa Dilan, why did you come to the Great Wall without authorization? Don't you need to guard against those wandering ghosts?"

"There's no need, Your Majesty, the Night King has already fled into the depths of the ocean with his vulnerable army. It's a pity that the Black Ark is not here, otherwise we will never spare him!"

After saluting slightly to Isabel, Lisa Dilan turned his attention to the terrified northern nobles around him, and then scolded dissatisfiedly:
"What are you looking at? Don't you want your eyeballs?"

As an elegant and easy-going Noldor Elf, Lisa Dilan, under the influence of the Drucci elves every day and night, has finally become the character of Drucci~
Hearing this, several northern nobles hurriedly moved away to look away, and then communicated with each other in their own quiet voices:

"Hey, Greatjon, aren't they those sons of a bitch elves that go around raiding caravans and attacking Lord Eddard?"

"Yeah, Amber, I heard that your son was there at the time. He has pointed ears and magic. Could it be these guys?"

"...Old Gods, and I'm not here, how do I know if these guys are those goddamn Wild Hunts?"

Hearing the inquiries from his colleagues, Greatjon Umber shook his head in embarrassment and anger. His son has been seriously injured and lying unconscious on the bed. He has no information about the Wild Hunt at all.

Several northern nobles were whispering constantly, completely unaware that their communication had already been heard clearly by all the elves and living saints present.

'The Wild Hunting Elves... It's interesting, are there other elves who have come to this ghostly place in the backcountry? '

In the hall, while Lisa Dilan was busy reporting to Isabel what had happened in the past few days, she secretly eavesdropped on the conversations among the nobles, preparing to collect information related to wild hunting.

After listening for a while, Sadilan, who was chatting with Isabel, suddenly became serious, and then said to Isabel in a strange way:

"I think this matter has exceeded my scope of handling. It should be reported directly to Lord Lohan and let him send the Tribunal to intervene!"

"I think so too. If what they say is true, then whether it's the little girl or these strange guys, it's entirely worth our vigilance."

Isabel's complexion also became a little ugly, and the sudden change of one person and one spirit immediately caught the attention of Roose Bolton, who was peeping, but he didn't know what happened.

However, if he could hear the important information just said from Greatjon, then he could immediately understand why the two were suddenly so tense:

"Shh~ what I'm talking about now is the important information that Duke Ed told me, please don't tell others:
Those wild elves came to the mainland of Westeros through a magical portal magic, and their target is the little girl next to the Duke, she seems to be able to use magic too! "

At this time, Greatjon, who was a little excited because of the leaked news, didn't know that the moment he said this, half of the people and elves in the hall shared the information.

After saluting slightly to Isabel, Lisa Dilan turned around and was about to leave the hall. Unexpectedly, Duke Ed, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked:
"Mr. Elf, may I ask, whose blood is the blood on you and your compatriots and on the sword?"

As early as in the conversation between Sadilan and Isabel just now, Ed had already confirmed with Ciri that these elves were not wild hunting elves, but an unknown new force.

Ciri didn't know that she had been betrayed by Greatjon at this time. She didn't want Ed to conflict with these elves, and she still hoped that these elves would leave immediately.

Even Ed didn't want to cause trouble, so he could only choose to bow his head and wait for Lisa Dilan to leave.

However, Elder Xiong next to him has been holding his hands tightly ever since he saw the blood on the elves such as Lisa Dilan.

'It's over...'

Roose Bolton, who was about to stand up and lead the family guards away from the Great Wall, couldn't help but slapped his forehead, and then sat back on his seat.

He knew that troubles were coming again!
Fortunately, Lisa Dilan just stopped in his tracks, and then looked at the duke with great interest who couldn't see the situation clearly and the white-haired woman next to him who kept pulling the duke's arm.

"You really should learn current affairs from that young man next to you. I have seen death, but I have never seen someone as brave as you!"

After finishing speaking, he turned and left Castle Black, preparing to find a way to report the information collected just now to Rohan who was still floating in the air.

"Huh~ Duke Ed, I think the threat of the Great Wall of Desperation should have been completely resolved, so I should go back to the Dreadfort to deal with the issue of the northern clans in the territory."

In the hall, Roose Bolton couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, and after touching his neck that was still on his shoulders, he offered to resign to Ed.

After these constant trials on the edge of life and death, he really didn't dare to stay in the same place with Ed anymore.

Now he just wants to suck his own blood with leeches, and relieve his beating heart.

After imitating Sadylan's way and bowing slightly to Isabel on the main seat, Roose Bolton left the hall of Castle Black and came to the training ground without looking back.

hiss~
The icy air kept irritating his hot chest, and Roose Bolton immediately showed a faint smile on his usually serious face.

It feels so good to be alive~
He had had enough of the conflicts between the northern nobles and elves, and now he just wanted to return to his own territory.

In the current chaotic situation, as long as he can keep his Dreadfort with peace of mind and become a toubob on one side, that's enough!
"Now I just need to secure my one-acre three-point land with peace of mind, and then wait for the next Winterfell master to show up and show his loyalty..."

Roose Bolton casually took a cowhide wine bag from his waist, and was about to take a sip to warm his body, when he suddenly saw a scene in the corner of Castle Black that made him furious:
"Master Elf, I think you all need a guide who is familiar with the customs of Westeros and all kinds of information on the continent, right?"
