Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory

Chapter 275 Ella and Yala

Ella and Yara hid behind a pile of ruins and stones, carefully avoiding the monster residents of Oros. Although she was not qualified to call others monsters due to her status, it was undeniable that some people were more powerful than monsters. monster.

Ella and Yara come from Mataris, a city in the north of the Land of Long Summer, close to the Sea of ​​Sighs. It is said that it was very prosperous hundreds of years ago, so prosperous that even now the elders of the family still often Talking about the prosperous scene of the city, describing the grand occasion when the Dragon King of Valyria ruled the city, but now it is just a ruined city, a ruined city full of deformed monsters.

Like most of the Mataris, Ayla and Yara make a living by finding Valyrian relics from the ruins of Valyria to sell to caravans passing through Mataris.

However, after hundreds of years of picking up, those non-dangerous and extremely valuable relics have been picked up. Now they have to go deep into Oros on the northern shore of the Sea of ​​Smoke to find valuable things.

To this end, Ella and Yara spent a month walking from Mataris to Oros. During the process, they encountered various dangers, including some terrible monsters covered in rot, and some wandering in the land of Long Summer. Scorched earth savages, no matter what kind of danger they are, are fatal to their sisters.

Fortunately, their sisters are born with a strong sense of perception. They can sense danger before it comes, which allows them to avoid those dangers, just like they are avoiding wandering in the ruins of Oros now. These remnants of the abyss.

The reason why the two sisters took such a big risk and came to Oros was entirely because someone found a petrified dragon egg in Oros not long ago and sold the egg to them at a very high price. He caught the passing caravan, and the money gained from selling this dragon egg was enough for the man to live a carefree life in Mataris.

It is precisely because of the temptation of money that many Mataris people, like the sisters Ella and Yala, ventured through the scorched earth-like land of Long Summer and came to Oros to search for the treasures hidden here.

However, the vast majority of people do not have the abilities of sisters Aila and Yala. Most of them fell on the way to Oros. Even if they are lucky enough to survive through the Land of Long Summer and arrive at Oros, they still There is a danger of being attacked by the Oros.

Just now, the sisters saw a seven-member treasure hunting team being surrounded and killed by a group of Oros with cracks on their bodies, yellow water flowing out, and eyes as red as blood.

They were part of the seven-person team, and those people were the best swordsmen in Mataris. And when such people were besieged by the Oros, they had no power to fight back. It is even more impossible for the Oros people to survive.

Therefore, they will be more careful in their subsequent actions. As long as they sense danger coming, even if a valuable ancient item is right in front of them, they will never reach out to take it. Instead, they will hide honestly until the danger is gone.

In this way, sisters Ella and Yara penetrated deep into the inner city of Oros that others could not penetrate, and they were getting closer and closer to their destination.

Unlike the others who came here to search blindly, these sisters had already planned their goal when they were still at home, which was the Governor's Mansion of Oros, which was once the residence of a Dragon King family in Valyria. , the ancestors of the two sisters were once the stewards of the Dragon King and were also Valyrian nobles, so they knew the situation of the governor's mansion very well. The notes left by their ancestors still record things about this mansion, such as for the sisters One very important thing is that there is a dragon's nest in the Governor's Mansion, where the dragon's eggs are stored.

The sense of danger quickly disappeared. The sisters did not leave their hiding place immediately. Instead, they waited quietly for a while. After confirming that it was indeed safe, they emerged from the hole under the stone pillars of the ruins.

Ella and Yara have the same appearance, and their Valyrian characteristics are very obvious, with purple eyes and silver hair. The only difference is that one of their hair colors is silver-gold and the other is silver-white.

In terms of their looks alone, they are both top-notch beauties, but the flaw is that they share the same body.

Even in Mataris, which is known as the city of monsters, two-headed people are still aliens among aliens, monsters among monsters, just like humans discriminate against deformed people, deformed people will also discriminate against even weirder two-headed people, and Because the number of two-headed men is extremely rare, passing caravans are more willing to spend a lot of money to buy them.

After Ella and Yara's parents died, his parents' good friends tried to sell them to passing Meereen slave owners, but their evil intentions were quickly sensed by the two sisters, and they were killed when they were not prepared.

Now the sisters do not trust anyone except each other. Whether in Mataris or in the Land of Long Summer, they act alone without companions. This may be the reason why they have been able to live safely for so long.

One of the two was alert to the surrounding movements, and the other quietly sneaked through the ruins. Soon they entered the Governor's Mansion, and then sneaked along the edge of the Governor's Mansion towards the cliff in the direction of the Sea of ​​Smoke.

According to the notes of their ancestors, the dragon's nest of the Governor's Mansion was on the edge of the cliff. However, when the two sisters sneaked into the nearby area, they found that there were many Oros gathered here. A rough count of at least two to three hundred people. , they couldn't get close to the dragon's nest at all.

However, what makes them all feel even weirder is that there are so many Oros people gathered here, but they do not sense danger, as if these Oros people are harmless in their perception.

"What should we do now?" Ella asked Yala directly through her mind.

Although Yara is the younger sister, she has more decision-making power than Ella, and many things need to be decided by her, just like now.

"Go and hide over there. They shouldn't stay here for too long." Yara quickly gave her decision, pointing to a broken tower not far away and said.

Ella also nodded in agreement.

The two sisters then carefully walked through a small section of ruins and came to the bottom of the broken tower. They found a small hole that could be drilled into and entered the tower. Then they climbed up the stairs to the break of the tower body and found a A great hiding spot to hide yourself while overlooking the surrounding area.

Still the same as before, one person raised his head to check the situation outside, while the other person sensed the danger around him.

Yala, who observed the situation outside, found that the Oros figures were performing some kind of religious ceremony. They tied the captured treasure hunters who ran to Oros to the stone pillars of the large platform outside the dragon's nest. The outside of the platform was always filled with poisonous smoke. The sea of ​​smoke.

Yara is no stranger to religion. In fact, she and Ella are both loyal believers in the God of Disaster, and they both hope to save enough money. Make a pilgrimage to the Holy City of Scourge.

During the Great Plague a few years ago, the two sisters fell ill and were about to die. Later, an ascetic monk from the Scourge God who was going to Slaver's Bay to deal with the plague saved them when he passed through Matalis.

From the words of the ascetic monk who was the god of natural disasters, they knew about the Holy City of Natural Disasters and that it was a happy and peaceful city where everyone had food and shelter. No one would starve or freeze in that city. Everything came from the protection of the God of Natural Disasters, and they were rescued because of the God of Natural Disasters, and they could feel that the ascetic monk looked at them without any discrimination, as if they were ordinary people, so they began to have Belief.

When the ascetic monk left, the monk gave them a necklace with the sacred emblem of natural disaster, saying that as long as they put on the necklace and go to the Holy City of Natural Disaster, they would be able to get shelter and no longer have to worry about it every day.

In Yala's observation, the ongoing religious ceremony of the Oros people seemed to have come to an end. The Oros people who were originally kneeling on the ground all stood up and cheered the same word loudly, while the Oros people as priests He turned around and left the platform in front of the dragon's nest, retreating to the outer area.

Following their shouts full of fanaticism, a piercing cry suddenly came from the sea of ​​smoke, as if something was responding to them in the sea of ​​smoke.

Upon hearing the response, the Oros people shouted louder and became more fanatical, as if they wanted to completely break their throats.

Immediately afterwards, Yara saw huge waves rising on the surface of the Sea of ​​Smoke. Waves of air blew away a large amount of poisonous smoke that was diffused above. It seemed that a huge thing was rising from the bottom of the sea.

Soon the sea surface began to boil, and a huge tentacle came out of the sea and hit the cliff next to it. The suction cups of the tentacle were tightly attached to the stone wall of the cliff. Then, the second and third tentacles followed one after another. Seven or eight tentacles came out of the water and clung to the cliff. Then they saw a sea monster about the size of two elephants with pustules all over its body emerging from the sea of ​​smoke. It crawled along the cliff to the dragon. On the platform outside the nest.

At this moment, the people of Oros suddenly became quiet. They looked nervously at the sea monster that had climbed onto the platform. Some of the treasure hunters who were sacrificed were still alive. The moment they saw the sea monster, they all went crazy. He yelled, struggling hard to get out of the predicament in front of him.

However, their violent movements gave the sea monster the best guidance. The tentacles extended by the sea monster accurately covered the bodies of the sacrifices, and the screams of the sacrifices also stopped abruptly. When the monster's tentacles moved away, the sacrifices all turned into mummies, as if all the liquid in their bodies had been drained.

At this time, the sea monster seemed not to be satisfied with these sacrifices, and its tentacles swept towards the Oros people outside the platform. The Oros people also wanted to avoid them in fear, but the sea monster's tentacles were faster, and in an instant It rolled up several Oros people, and when they were released, the Oros people also turned into mummies.

However, compared to those who were sacrificed, these Oros people covered in pus did not seem to suit the sea monster's appetite. It soon found a new target, which was Ai who was hiding in the ruined tower to observe the situation. Sisters La and Yara.

"Danger, danger!" The two sisters instantly sensed a stronger danger than they had ever experienced before. Regardless of their exposed position, they quickly jumped off the tower, got out, and then ran away from the coast.

However, they moved very quickly, but the sea monster moved even faster, and the sea monster's tentacles seemed to be able to extend infinitely. They quickly stretched out hundreds of meters, stopped in front of the two sisters, and wrapped them towards them. passed.

An extremely strong sense of danger swept through their bodies, causing the sisters' hands and feet to instantly become paralyzed. They sat on the ground and could only watch helplessly as the tentacles moved towards them.

Just when the two sisters felt that they were finished this time, a huge roar came from the sky that made everyone feel a sense of awe and wanted to worship. Everyone who heard the sound couldn't help but kneel on the ground. And the sea monster seemed to feel the fear. Instead of continuing to capture the sisters Ella and Yala, it retracted its tentacles and squirmed hurriedly towards the edge of the cliff. Then it jumped directly out of the cliff and fell vertically towards the sea, trying to let go. Return to the sea as quickly as possible.

Although the sea monster fell very quickly, the speed of lightning was even faster. A thick silver-blue lightning fell from the sky and hit the sea monster directly, roasting it from the inside out in an instant. Even sisters Ella and Yara could smell the smell of grilled squid.

Then, everyone saw a strange giant dragon with four wings and four legs appearing in the clouds of poisonous smoke in the sky.

I saw that lightning was constantly coming out from the body of this giant dragon, just like the incarnation of lightning. The surrounding poisonous clouds were torn apart by lightning and turned into countless fragments. Without the obstruction of the dark clouds, the sunlight passed through the holes. , fell on the ruins of Oros, which had not seen sunlight for many years, and the giant dragon also gained a layer of sacred light.

The giant dragon stayed in the air for a while, then swooped down at a high speed and landed on the sea. Its four dragon claws grabbed the roasted sea monster on the sea, and its four wings flapped slightly, easily grabbing the sea monster. The sea monster whose head was much larger than it was caught, flew into the air, and then landed on the platform of the Dragon Nest of the Governor's Mansion.

The Oros people were completely frightened by the scene in front of them. They found that the god they believed in could be killed so easily, and it seemed that he would become food for the dragon. Their minds were blank at the moment, as if As if their souls had been taken away, only some Orosi people with inheritance found the legend about the dragon in their memories, and when they saw a knight in armor jumping off the dragon, they were even more excited. I couldn't help but think of the Dragon King of Valyria, the past ruler of this city.

At this time, the knight in armor also looked at the Oros people and walked towards them. An inexplicable fear arose in the hearts of all the Oros people, as if what was coming was not a knight, but an incarnation of terror. , they fled in panic one by one, and some Oros people even ran to the edge of the cliff in panic, jumped out directly, and fell into the sea, their life or death unknown.

Soon the Oros people around the dragon's nest fled completely, leaving only the dragon, the knight and the two-headed sisters in the distance.
