Game of Thrones: I Created the Magic Web

Chapter 155 The Raven of Storm's End
Outside the gates of Storm's End.

Cortnay Penrose was riding a sorrel steed, looking seriously at the hostile knight in front of him.

The knight had drooping eyes, a rust-colored beard, white scales engraved with delicate gold thread, and a golden sunburst helmet, knee pads, throat, gauntlets, and boots were gleaming iron armor .

I don't know if it's to show off, or because I'm afraid of death.

The key point is that the knight's wool cloak is decorated with gold lion buckles.

"Ser Cortnay Penrose."

The knight's rust-colored beard swayed slowly, "Long time no see."

Cortanay Penrose snorted coldly, "You really enjoyed your stay in the Red Keep, I'm afraid you've completely forgotten about the storm, Marin Tran!"

Cortnay Penrose recognized the face.

How could he not recognize it, from his own paperweight to Storm's End, in the middle is the gray twisted city passed down from generation to generation by the Tran family.

"Why, the Noose Knight transformed into a proud golden lion?"

Cortnay Penrose looked sarcastically.

Marin Tran didn't take it seriously, stroking the golden lion clasp on his shoulder, "As the Kingsguard, I naturally have to forget my family, never marry a wife, never have children, and serve the king wholeheartedly. Sir, if you don't praise me for keeping my oath, why do you still speak out?" insult?"

If it is really out of the duty of the Kingsguard, it is excusable, even respectable.But, Marin Tran, would it be such a person?

Cortanay Penrose was too lazy to talk anymore.

"Speak quickly if you have anything to say. Hurry up and stick your tongue out to the master. I can also spend a little more time in Storm's End to gather strength to kill the enemy."

Cortnay Penrose glanced at Meryn Tran in disgust.

If it weren't for this guy flying from a distance with two peace flags, which countless people saw, he really wanted to initiate a duel immediately to clear the world of a filthy villain.

pity.

He looked up again.

A peace flag with colorful stripes and seven long tails attached to a pole topped with a seven-pointed star.

The other flag is similar, except that all the "sevens" have been replaced with "sixes."

He knew that this was the result of the false King Joffrey's wanton behavior.What did you say that "the symbol of the Seven Gods is a six-pointed star"?What nonsense!
And Marin Tran, neither respects the gods, but is also timid and afraid of death!

He gave Marin Tran another contemptuous look.If this guy really dared to come here with only a six-pointed star flag, he would be considered a bit loyal and courageous, but he still held a seven-pointed star, heh!
As if stimulated by his eyes, Marin Tran finally unfolded the king's warrant.

"In the name of Joffrey I, King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms and Protector of the Realm, of House Baratheon and Lannister..."

Cortnay Penrose idly picked his ears.

"...Infinite power, rebellion will be destroyed. To show the mercy of the gods, open the city gate immediately and serve justice. You can still forgive everyone in the city, regardless of merit or crime."

Marin Tran handed out the warrant, his face full of indifference and arrogance.

"Finished?"

Cortanay Penrose spat, "This is my answer. Go back and report, and let those poor soldiers crash and die on the city wall, adding guilt to you!"

"Or, do you want to die by my sword?"

Cortnay Penrose put his hand on the hilt of his sword.Facing this guy, Marin Tran, he couldn't come empty-handed with confidence.

Marin Tran showed no surprise or anger.

"Longsword duels are obsolete."

Marin Tran sighed condescendingly, and then drove towards the camp without looking back.

Looking at the shining back of Marin Tran, Cortanay Penrose knew that he had rejected the only chance without bloodshed.

so what?The blood of the enemy will be ten times and a hundred times that of Storm's End!
Cortnay Penrose turned his horse.

Walking across the suspension bridge and entering the city gate, he felt the countless killing holes and traps hidden in the dark.

Boulders are rolled down from above, and hot oil is splashed.

The left and right bows and arrows open and close, the ballista explodes, and the fire-breathing crossbow spits out raging fire.

As soon as the iron gate falls, people can be smashed in half and smashed into a pulp.After that, the inside and outside are separated into two worlds, the inside world must die, and the outside world is just waiting to die.

The city gate is covered with iron bars. If necessary, a layer of iron barbed clothes can be draped over the city gate to avoid being tampered with.

Even the ground is not dull and uninteresting.

There are organs on both sides of the city wall that control the underground tunnels. Once activated, the ground in the city gate will cave in and collapse, revealing a tunnel that is two feet long and two feet deep.

Not to mention heavy equipment such as battering rams, even lightly armored soldiers would have difficulty crossing them, and there are countless active killing holes.

All of these are the nightmare of the enemy and the lullaby of Storm's End.

Cortnay Penrose knew it all.

Ka Ka Ka ~
The iron cable was tightened with the winch, and the suspension bridge behind him was pulled up again, blocking the gap in the outer city wall.

The entire city gate was instantly darkened.

In the dark and airtight space, small sounds began to fill up, down, left, and right.These voices came from the soldiers standing behind the killing hole.

Boom~~
The heavy city gate was pulled up bit by bit by iron chains, and the light from the gap below shone into the gate hole, getting brighter and bigger until it was enough for people to pass through.

Cortnay Penrose rode his horse through the gate.

thump~
The city gate fell heavily to the ground, and it was unknown when it would open again.

……

"Ser, a letter from Amber City."

Cortnay Penrose had just stepped onto the north wall when the maester hurried with a scroll.

The sealing wax of the letter is the emblem of the Rogers family, black ink pad, and a silver maze surrounded by nine silver unicorns.

The Rogers family of Amber City, the neighbors to the west of Rain House City.The fleet of King's Landing.

He could already guess the contents of the letter.

Open the letter and look, sure enough.

Amber City was raided by a fleet. Although the castle was not breached, many fishing villages and towns along the coast were looted or burned. Some enemy troops even went deep inland, intending to attack more villages and towns.

More and more like pirates.

Cortanay Penrose had mixed feelings.

"Sir, how should I report to His Majesty?" The bachelor asked cautiously.

Cortnay Penrose looked north toward the enemy camp.

It has been determined that the enemy does not carry large ordnance, the reserves are insufficient, the camps are scattered, and there are not even drums or horns!
As for why.

The letter from Amber City verified a guess that he couldn't believe before.

That white light and sound of enemies is not without limits.Amber City also heard the fleet's thunderous persuasion to surrender, but only half of it was heard, and the other half stopped abruptly.

Therefore, because of this power, the enemy was so arrogant that he abandoned the drum.

But this kind of power suddenly disappeared, and it was beyond their expectations, which made it difficult for the enemy to give orders?

"Sir!"

A soldier came running from the east, "The besieging fleet has moved! They..."

Cortnay Penrose stopped him with a hand.

Needless to say, the fleet has lined up and passed in front of them, sailing further north.

He turned back due north.

In the middle of the military camp on the shore, a crowned stag flag bigger than a sail was planted on the camp.

You are as arrogant as ever, Joffrey.

Soon.

The ravens of Storm's End were all set free.

The besieging soldiers fired several rounds of bows and arrows, but six or seven ravens still escaped the attack.

Fly north.
