Chapter 98 Departure

Chapter 98 Departure

The next morning, Dany practiced the standard movements of sword swinging and slashing with Whitebeard 300 times as usual.

The old man told her that although her movements were barely standard, they had not yet formed physical memory. As long as she still considered herself a warrior, she would have to train for a day.

After washing and eating a hearty breakfast, Dany took off her loose training clothes and changed into a painted leather vest, silk shorts, horsehair leggings, and riding leather sandals.

A bronze medal belt was tied around her waist. The maid braided a whip for her and hung two jingling silver bells on the end, one representing her victory over the demigod immortal in the Undying House, and the other was contributed by Euron.

The battle against Euron was far more dangerous and tragic than the battle in the Undying House. Dany had a clear conscience to add a bell for herself.

Today she will ride her silver horse to the Punishment Square. The transaction will be completed in the morning, and she may leave Astapor at noon.

Aggo and Rakharo, two bloodriders, were in the front, each holding a large banner, with a black dragon flag on a green background fluttering in the wind.

Dany did not use the three-headed dragon flag of the Targaryen family at this time. The black dragon was her "birth" mount, and the green symbolized the endless sea of grass.

She followed on a small silver horse, and Belwas still chose to walk, trotting to protect Dany's left side. Missandei also rode a small mare on Dany's right side, Whitebeard rode a tall dragon horse on Missandei's right side, and Jorah Mormont followed behind.

There were more than 20 roaring warriors outside them, with scimitars on their waists and longbows hanging on their saddles. The same moon gate hairstyle made the pedestrians on the street point and comment.

Behind the warriors was a long line of carriages, 177 carriages. In addition to gold, silver, jewelry and jade, there were also six bundles of tiger skins, 300 pieces of Yidi fine silk, thousands of jars of saffron, myrrh, pepper, curry and cardamom, and 80 barrels of Yidu's fine red, black and green ink.

There was also a barrel of pitted olives filled with worms, twelve barrels of pickled cave fish, a batch of exquisite bronzes, 17 ivory eyes, and a carriage of books from the Jade Sea countries.

In addition to the above precious foreign items, there were dozens of carts of black rice and wine, which were mainly used to balance the warehouse. They were not too expensive and were the most common goods in the great maritime trade.

The mighty convoy that stretched for a mile caused quite a stir in the Red Brick Street Market. Dany did not send anyone to escort the convoy. They had been counted by documents in the dock area. The ownership basically belonged to the major benefactors and was completely safe in Astapor.

The eight benefactors and their children and wives wore tokar robes and stood on the last step of the stepped pyramid, looking down at Dany who was riding over from the other end of the square.

The Punishment Square was filled with the Unsullied army, row after row, motionless, like sticks neatly stuck in the ground.

There were 8,600 fully trained Unsullied, wearing lightning rod helmets. Another 5,000 were bareheaded, equipped only with spears and short swords, not fully trained, and without helmets.

The youngest of these people were just children, five or six years old, with childish faces.

Even if they had not completed the training, they stood straight, straight-eyed, and motionless like real Unsullied.

Dany took the lead, passed through the Unsullied ranks, came to the front of the pyramid, turned over and dismounted, took two boxes from the saddle, and placed them one by one just below the steps where the good master was.

Then Euron also got off his horse, walked over and opened the two boxes. In the first box was a roll of drawings, which was the sea chart drawn by Euron himself.

The second box was covered with a thick Myrish blanket, and on it was a rusty bronze dragon egg.

Euron held the dragon egg and looked around. He found that the weight and texture were correct. He put down the dragon egg, stood up and nodded to the good master, saying, "Yes, it is the dragon egg that was taken from me."

"It is my trophy!" Dany corrected.

"This dragon egg of the Valyrian dragon king now belongs to Astapor!" Glazdan said with a smile.

"The transaction must be completed first." Dany said lightly.

At this time, a clerk had trotted up the stairs and handed the list of goods to the good master.

Seeing that all the goods were in good condition, Glazdan said seriously, "Finish the last thing and trade immediately."

"What is it?" Dany's heart was pounding, but her face was calm.

"You swear that the bronze dragon egg is really alive and can hatch a dragon." The slave master said loudly with a stern face.

Dany felt relieved and said loudly: "By the honor of the descendants of Valyria and the Targaryen family, and as the Queen of the Seven Kingdoms, I swear that the bronze dragon egg I got from Euron is active and can definitely hatch a dragon in my hands."

Then, she raised her eyebrows and warned the slave owner: "I am the mother of dragons and have activated the legendary bloodline of ancient Valyria, so as long as I pay a certain price, there is a very high chance that I can hatch a small bronze dragon.

But if you want to hatch a dragon, you must not only find a shadow priest, but it is best to have a descendant of a real dragon or a Valyrian noble to hatch the dragon."

"We also have Valyrian blood." Kraznys muttered.

This is also true. From Qarth to the Slaver's Bay, to Volantis, to all the trading cities except Braavos, their upper nobles have Valyrian blood, because the people who ruled these free cities back then were pure-blooded Valyrian nobles.

The dragon king who has a dragon lives in the capital of Valyria, and the lower-level nobles or branches of the great nobles who don't have a dragon are enfeoffed in various places.

After the catastrophe, the minor nobles and their descendants survived.

Among them, the rulers of Volantis had the purest bloodline, even more than the Targaryen family.

Because the Targaryens had many marriages with other families in the following 400 years, Volantis had more nobles and a large population base, which could form a closed and conservative genetic system.

"I have sworn an oath and warned you. Can we complete the deal now?" Dany asked.

"After the deal is completed, will Ser Euron be free?" Glazdan seemed to ask a question that was irrelevant to the current topic.

But Dany understood that dragon eggs were precious, and the sea map was ten or a hundred times more valuable than dragon eggs.

How much wealth should Valyria have plundered after ruling the world for 5,000 years?

It is unimaginable.

Some people speculate that the gold and silver there are more than all the wealth in the world today.

What did Valyria rely on to rule the world for 5,000 years?

Dragons and magic.

Real dragons and real magic.

In the 400 years since the Cataclysm, how many explorers have tried to cross the Sea of Smoke, hoping to find treasure and secrets in the city-state of Valyria?

  Countless.

In One Piece, Roger's words "Want my treasure?" ushered in the Great Age of Pirates.

But Roger's treasure is nothing compared to Valyria's.

Unfortunately, only one person has emerged from the ruins of Valyria over the years, Euron Greyjoy.

Although the treasure he brought back was a little less, he did not return empty-handed after all. The key is that the Silence is a narrow long ship, not a cargo ship or a large sea ship, and the space for loading cargo is relatively small, so Euron can be considered to have returned with a full load.

If Grolai's Cydurion can return safely from the ruins of Valyria, the treasure it brings back can buy the entire Astapor, or even the Slaver's Bay.

The sea chart is certainly priceless, but the good master is more looking forward to Euron, the old driver, to help lead the way. To be honest, if Euron is honest and can be a little loyal to Dany, she also wants to keep him.

But if the old driver is not honest and deliberately leads you into a pit, its lethality is greater than that of a novice who goes on the road and explores by himself.

In Dany's heart, Euron is not trustworthy at all, so unfortunately, she can only give up the beautiful idea of letting Euron lead the way.

"I promised that I would set Euron and his crew free as soon as we returned to land," Dany nodded, looking at the grinning Crow's Eye. "After we leave the gates of Astapor, you can go anywhere you want, but I still suggest that you come with me.

This is Slaver's Bay, and you have wanted warrants from dozens of city-states on your back. Don't let anyone take you as a slave."

"I know, but I want real freedom more," Euron said casually.

"Then it's up to you."

Hearing their conversation, Glazdan smiled with satisfaction. At his signal, "old friend" Kraznys walked down the stairs quickly, came to Dany's side, raised a whip high, and said loudly: "The good master says, deal!"

"Deal!" Glazdan, with pearl tassels on the high stairs, echoed loudly.

  "Deal!"

  "Deal!"

Eight good masters, eight "deals", all the Unsullied and the nearby Ghis people saw and heard it.

"Deal!" Dany nodded, waved her hand behind her, and the centaurs who were originally standing behind the treasure and sea goods boxes retreated one by one.

Then, she took the whip called "Finger of the Harpy" from Kraznys.

The 30cm long whip handle was carefully carved from black dragon bones, with gold inlaid on both ends. One end was a golden ball-shaped woman's head with sharp ivory teeth in her mouth; the other end was connected to eight thin leather strips, with a gold-plated eagle claw at the end of the leather strip.

It felt very heavy in the hand, and it represented a heavier meaning - the control of 13,600 Unsullied.

It was like a property certificate.

While Kraznys was eagerly looking through the sea chart, Dany climbed onto the small silver horse, stood in the stirrup, raised the "Finger of the Harpy" above her head, and silently circled the square.

Finally, she deliberately shouted in the awkward Valyrian language that seemed to have just been learned: "You belong to me now, the people of the Mother of Dragons, all of you, five in a row, follow me, to a new world and a new future."

Dany took the lead, followed by the neatly arranged Unsullied, five in a row, and the long queue stretched for three or four kilometers.

After a quick look at the sea chart, Kraznys said to Euron beside him with a sneer on his face: "That bitch must have practiced her words all night. She spoke quite well. The eunuchs understood them."

Euron opened his mouth and wanted to say, "She is a descendant of the orthodox Valyria and has lived in the free city of the western continent for more than ten years. How do you think she doesn't speak Valyrian?"

But not far away, Whitebeard was holding a big box and staring at him. Crow Eye touched his nose and whispered, "Are you interested in cooperating once?"

"That's what I want!" A gleam of light flashed in Krazny's eyes.

"Then we'll see you later." Crow Eye's blue right eye carried a kind and gentle smile, which was so convincing.

"Euron, your crew is waiting outside the city gate, go quickly." The old man said coldly.

Euron nodded, jumped on his horse, and galloped away.

Whitebeard turned around and said to the slave trader, "Queen Daenerys asked me to bring a gift to the good master."
