Chapter 244 Inflatable Fish

The halls of Storm's End were flooded with daylight.

Joffrey sat high on the top, the throne that had been passed down from generation to generation of the Baratheon lords.

There is only one person below.

"Master Mace." He nodded and smiled towards the bottom, "These two days are busy with affairs, and the hospitality is not good. If I neglect you, please don't take it personally."

"Your Majesty is serious, how could it be?"

Fat Lord Mace Tyrell was all smiles.

He was sitting on a wide chair, with no restraints on his body, but his hands were tightly attached to his legs, as stiff as a prisoner waiting for trial.

Perhaps it is.

Since being captured the day before yesterday, Duke Mace, the "inflatable fish", has been completely discouraged, and he is no longer as high-spirited and complacent as before.

The "inflatable fish" that was punctured has lost its confidence.

The ending of failure is so dazzling.

With almost no bloodshed, the huge army was lost in one day!
Renly Baratheon, the backbone, has become the king's prisoner, and forty or fifty thousand soldiers have bowed their knees and surrendered!The nobles and jazz died, surrendered, captured and captured, and none of them were spared!

Blame that shadow monster back from hell!

No!And the strange power of Storm's End!Fire cannons of thunder and fire!

How can a mortal be against him! ?
Renly is gone, Highgarden is gone.Even if another [-] troops were organized, the failure would be irreversible.

Mace Tyrell could at least see that.

He can only accept the judgment of fate.

Fortunately, after being captured, he was not abused and insulted. Not only did he get a fairly comfortable room, but he was even told that he could walk around the castle.

It seems that the king still has scruples about Highgarden.The Duke of Metz at that time couldn't help but secretly rejoice.

That's right, no matter what, the Reach is also the richest country among the Seven Kingdoms. Could it be that the king can really kill them all?
After all, Renly was in charge, and Highgarden was just one of many supporters.

Just bow to him.

The Duke of Metz, who felt that his life was safe, finally felt much more at ease, and slept peacefully.In the early morning of the next day, when he woke up, he decided to go for a walk.Sure enough, no one stopped him.

Just one night.

But he saw a strange Storm's End.

Stronger and thicker than ever, and more singularly brilliant than ever.

Countless golden patterns and bright red marks have been newly added to the gray and monotonous giant wall.The square battlements turned into thousands of high-spirited knights, each with delicate faces, majestic postures, and lifelike.

At first glance, it looks similar to the gargoyles on the walls of Dragonstone Island.

But these statues are all human.The Duke of Metz even saw with his own eyes the knights in the army with exactly the same face as the statue. They wore cloaks of stags, golden lions, and six-pointed star flags.

It turned out to be based on real people.What a deep honor!Why else would these people choose to betray Joffrey?
The Duke of Metz immediately thought of the key point.

At this time, he walked on the city wall again. Although there were not many soldiers nearby, he felt countless sharp eyes, as if he was surrounded by thousands of troops.

Looking around, there are countless statues.

Duke of Metz looked into the city again.He had been to Storm's End several times, but never had he seen anything like this.

The tower in the center seemed to be much shorter, allowing him to see the figures walking on the roof of the tower.It seems to have become a lot farther away, and the rooms and windows in the field of vision are all smaller.

The confusion of senses made Mace stunned for a long time.

Then he carefully looked at all the things in the front, back, left and right, and finally understood: it wasn't the tower that became shorter, but the city wall that was raised up, approaching the tall tower!It's not that the towers are far away, but that the city walls have been moved, more than doubling the castle's size!
And in the castle, countless buildings and halls have been born out of thin air, each of which is more than a hundred feet high, wide and strong, and the captured soldiers are filling them.

Is this Joffrey's spell? !

Mace was unavoidably surprised.Made it last night?Why do I feel nothing and still sleep so deeply?
technique.

The Duke of Metz put one hand on the city wall and caressed it, and the touch was no different from that of ordinary rocks.

Where is the spell?Is there a spell hidden in it?

He can't get an answer.

So he let go of the rock, turned and looked out of the city.

A figure is mending the broken ground.The earth and rock pits and the scorched black color are disappearing little by little, and finally merged into the original appearance of the earth.

There are also many carriages and horses on the connected King's Road.

But at this time, the King's Road was several times wider, enough for dozens of carriages to drive side by side.The road stretches all the way to the north, out of sight, to King's Landing.

The Duke of Metz circled the city wall.

To the west, the road leading to Fallen Wood City is also being repaired and expanded.

By the way, Luomu City still has thousands of troops and a lot of luggage.Duke of Mace remembered.But other than giving it to King Joffrey for free, it has no meaning.

To the south, the rugged path is also being widened.To Griffin's Roost?is this necessary?

To the east is the blue sea.

Going to the coast of Cape Wrath by sea is undoubtedly the most convenient way.Griffin's Nest Castle, Amber City, and Rain House City can all be reached by sailing in one day.

Mace looked down.

A fleet has gathered at sea, about one or two hundred in number.There is no doubt that it is the Royal Fleet.

too fast.Mays realized the problem.

When the battle started yesterday, there were only a few ships in total. How could such a complete fleet emerge in such a timely manner after only one night?

Could it be that Storm's End had planned everything in advance, so the timing was so accurate?

His doubts were quickly answered.

Following the implantation of the cores of the soldiers yesterday, the captured nobles were also bestowed with "divine grace" today.

It turned out to be because of this.The Duke of Metz couldn't help but write his true feelings on his face.

God!

Such a miraculous creation!No wonder King Joffrey wins every battle!

People can communicate like this!Just like talking face to face, without restrictions and delays.How can Raven compare with it? !

Why did the gods favor Joffrey so much! ?
The Duke of Metz couldn't help but imagine, if God favored Highgarden in the first place, what would it be like?
Must be much better than now.

Thinking of the real situation, Mace Tyrell couldn't help sighing sadly.

It is rare for all the captured nobles to gather together.

Lando Tarly leaned over and reported what he had seen to Duke Mace.

The military is always what the Tully cares most about and is good at.

The Duke of Metz thus knew:
King Joffrey's army was still training hard, day in and day out, as if they were still preparing for war.

There are more than six hundred cannons deployed in Storm's End.According to the chatter of the soldiers, the "naval guns" of the maritime fleet are more powerful and more numerous.

The king's guards all share the "power of grace", and each has a specific power.

Judging from their performance during mutual training, it is common to fight one against ten, and it is not impossible to fight one against a hundred.

The king is still selecting more people who are eligible to win the "power of divine favor".

In short, invincible.

Randyll Tarly's words sounded uncomfortable.But the Duke of Metz knew that this should all be true.

Highgarden must not be buried with Renly!

The Duke of Metz made up his mind.Finally got the chance to surrender today.

must be carefully considered.

He raised his head and squeezed out what he thought was the most sincere smile at the king.
