Chapter 156 Fatal news

"Let the ravens fly."

After checking all the contents of the letter, Jon Snow ordered the bachelor of Griffon's Nest Castle.

Jon Snow was wearing iron-gray armor, a golden hexagram, and several badges of different styles on his chest.

The four guards behind him were similar, but their armor was painted red.

"As you wish, my lord."

The gray-haired bachelor quietly rewound the three letters.The letter was written by him himself, but the content was not decided by him.

Then, the old scholar leaned forward slightly, and put the red clay beside the flame of the candlestick on the table to warm it up.

Taking advantage of the waiting period, the old scholar took out the precious seal that was kept close to him and wiped it carefully, so that the engraving on it could be fully displayed without any blemishes.

The seal shows a pair of griffins in battle.

Griffon, the symbol of Griffin's Roost, the crest of the Clinton family.

The combination of Raven and Sigil works well. The ancestors of 1 years ago have already begun to use this method for long-distance communication, and it has continued to this day.

As a bachelor, the main work on weekdays includes taking care of the letter crows, writing, receiving and delivering letters.

The old bachelor has long been proficient enough that it is impossible to make mistakes.

He took the half-melted red clay from the candlestick, it was just soft enough that it wouldn't drip everywhere, and it wouldn't lose its shape.

With a twist of the old scholar's wrist, the red wax paste was sealed on the mouth of the letter, forming a thick round cover.

Then, he raised the seal, brought it to his mouth deftly and let out a breath of hot air, then pressed down neatly to squeeze out the warm wax paste, and kept it still until the wax paste solidified.

The three letters were quickly processed.

Next, it's time to send letters to Fallen Wood City, Storm's End Castle, and Green Valley City.

The letter was stamped with the Clinton family's griffin sealing wax, and inside was the old maester's own handwriting, which was exactly the same as that of countless previous letters.

It is almost certain that the recipient will not be suspicious.

what will happen after that
The old bachelor turned to look at the black-haired boy.The new lord of Griffin's Nest Castle, the temporary consul, Jon Snow.

This face is so young.

His gray eyes are gloomy and cold, always reminiscent of the icy and cold north.

The old bachelor couldn't help lamenting the impermanence of the world.

Just last night, it was Sir Raymond Clinton who made him write to report and ask for help.Even earlier, it was Clinton.

decades.

He is a witness to countless past events, an old friend of the Clinton family for generations, and he has also witnessed the heavy damage to the ancient Griffon's Roost.

During the War of the Usurper, the Clintons were stripped of their lands and titles by the Mad King.

Then King Robert gave back a small portion of the land and the knighthood.

As a result, Griffin's Nest Castle continued, and although it was no longer prosperous and prosperous, the name of the Clinton family did not die out.

But now, there is another battle for the throne, can the Clinton family survive this disaster?

The old bachelor harbored deep worries in his heart.

He had no problem with this Jon Snow personally.

As we all know, the bachelors sent to each castle serve the castle and the people themselves, rather than a specific lord. The bachelor should remain neutral and not participate in the lord's battle.

But he was old after all, having served too long at Griffin's Nest and the Clinton family.

What's more, now, under the guise of the Clinton family, they have to pass lies to His Majesty Renly, the lord of Griffin's Roost and crowned king...

Jon Snow reminded lightly, "Bachelor?"

The old bachelor withdrew his gaze, "It's a common problem for the elderly to be distracted for a while. Please forgive me, Mr. Consul."

Jon Snow simply pointed to the crow cage.

The old scholar knew that he couldn't hesitate any longer. Everyone in the city had become a prisoner. Whether it was out of duty or affection, they should serve seriously.

Although the army after entering the city was quite kind, they did not kill people indiscriminately or insult women.

However, that terrifying power...

Without further delay, the old scholar walked quickly to the cage, took out the three most energetic letter crows, and put the letters one by one into the letter box at the foot of the letter crows.

That was how the old maester delivered four ravens last night.

The army that launched a night attack outside the castle failed to stop them, and all four ravens flew away safely to their respective targets.

However, it later proved that this was just an illusion.

Not long after the four ravens flew away, the army outside the city showed terrifying power.

A heavy and fast iron ball was fired from the steel pipe, and the iron gate of "Griffin's Swallow" was instantly shattered with a thunderous impact.

The old bachelor and all the guards were stunned.

Then, a small half of the enemy troops outside the city rushed into the long bare row behind the gate, and rushed towards the main gate of the castle directly in front.

The guards on the twin round towers on both sides of the main gate rushed to attack, throwing spears, hard rocks and arrows.

Yet the enemy was unscathed!

When the enemy blasted through the main gate and remained indifferent to the boiling oil pouring down on his head, the old scholar finally released the first crow calling for help.

But this time, the bows and crossbows outside the city were precise, the flames were deadly, and neither of the two key ravens escaped.

After that, the old bachelor has no chance.

Griffin's Roost lasted only a quarter of an hour after the enemy showed its true fangs.

The old scholar watched helplessly as familiar faces were pulled out and gathered in the hall, but the empty griffin seat deep in the hall did not respond.

The black-haired boy in the lead also instructed his subordinates: "There is a staircase leading to the secret sanctuary hidden under the altar of the Virgin in the Cathedral of Griffin's Nest Castle. Another staircase in the northwest tower leads directly to the sea. Find them and send each Everyone is brought to this hall."

How would the enemy know? !

This is a complete secret to the vast majority of people in Griffin's Roost, and the few who know it have no reason to reveal it to the outside world.

The old scholar really couldn't understand, could it be that the bloodthirsty demon gave the answer?

But the matter soon became insignificant.

The dark-haired boy pronounced the verdict on Griffin's Roost and the Clintons:

Everyone in the city must obey any arrangement of the guards and dedicate their strength to the gods, justice and the real king.

Appoint Jon Snow as the interim governor of Griffin's Nest Castle, with full authority to manage Griffin's Nest Castle and territorial affairs, preside over wars, mobilize personnel, distribute materials, rule laws, and collect taxes.

The Clinton family can still live in Griffin's Roost, retain their titles, and enjoy some tax and estate income.

In the end, the guards performed their strange powers, healing the wounded and sick, and stuffing a dragon wafer into everyone's neck.

The old maester saw it then.Is this the creation of the gods, or the game of the devil?

Its name is "Divine Grace Light Curtain".

Apparently, King Joffrey preferred the favor of the gods to the favor of the devil.

The "task" on the light curtain is flashing.

The old scholar sighed silently, and took out a handful of corn kernels.

Satisfied with their feast, the three ravens took off and flew north, bringing with them crucial news, reasonable news.

Deadly news.
