Chapter 359 Negotiations in Braavos

  Testing out the weirdness of the dragon's remains, Rhaegar turned to wander into the canyon.

The canyon is not big and is covered with stumbling shrubs and plants.

 After searching around, we found a mountain cave similar to a lair under the left rib of the dragon's remains.

Waving the real fire to clear the obstructing bushes, the dark sword body quickly ignited a layer of flames.

Lega carried the real fire and walked into the cave cautiously step by step.

Phew! call!

The interior of the cave is large and deep, with occasional wind noises and a faint rotten smell.

Rhaegar looked around, and after walking for more than ten meters, he found a pile of old dragon dung.

 “It’s indeed a dragon’s lair.”

Rhaegar muttered softly and continued walking inside.

 Thinking of the remains of the giant dragon in the canyon, this nest of dragon eggs was probably left behind by the dragon during his lifetime.

Sub-adult dragons grow faster, usually growing to about a hundred feet in 10 to 20 years, and their scales and claws gradually mature.

 The glutton stared at him with his green vertical pupils, his wings supporting the ground and waiting patiently.

 This Dragon King family has made a clear arrangement.

Rhaegar stuck the real fire into the ground and got closer to see what was inside.

 Through comparison with dragon egg fossils, this dragon has been dead for at least a hundred years.

 For some reason, this dragon came to Sothoros, was deliberately hidden, and disappeared from the eyes of the world.

 An extremely large wild dragon wandering along the coastline of Sothothros, it was impossible for the Dragon King family of Ancient Valyria not to miss it.

 In other words, before the apocalyptic disaster, the dragon was at least a hundred years old.

 Approximately baby dragons, sub-adults, adults and old ones.

 The young dragon grows to about thirty feet, is about 10 years old, and will enter sub-adulthood.

 There are a lot of dragon egg fragments, and there seems to be a dark red underneath.

 The above records the scattered knowledge of a Dragon King family.

The cave goes straight up and down, and the light of the real fire is enough to illuminate most of the space.



This dragon has a driver, at least there once was a driver.

 After sub-adult age, there are more young dragons, mature dragons, giant dragons, weak dragons...

Rhaegar found some vague stone inscriptions on the stone wall of the dragon's cave, using High Valyrian script.

 For example, based on the dragon's size, the age and growth cycle of a dragon can be estimated.

 Cut the dragon egg fragments into two halves, just enough to form two dragon eggs.

 “Fossil dragon egg!”

Just looking at the appearance of this dragon egg, you can tell that it has long been reduced to a fossil and has no vitality at all.

Gluttony roared, stretched out its dark wings and flapped, and quickly took off into the air.

There is no need to explore this canyon and the dragon's remains.

Rhaegar took a deep breath, quickly climbed onto the dragon's back, and gave the command: "Fly!"

Rega thought for a while and said in surprise: "A nest of dragon eggs?"

 The division of dragons into various periods is ambiguous.

 According to records, a female dragon master of the Beleris family, Janenara Beleris, once drove her dragon to wander around Sothoros for three years.

 So, there were originally three dragon eggs here, and two of them have hatched!

Rhaegar pushed it open with his hand, revealing a complete dragon egg with dark red scales and a surface covered with stone.

"Roar…"

 Then, there is only one possibility.

 After a while, Rega held the dragon egg fossil and walked out of the dragon's lair silently.

If there is a dragon in Sothoryos, it will never escape the sight of the Dragon King family.

As far as the eye can see, there is a layer of dragon egg fragments on the surface, each piece is full of time and wind.

It senses the driver's low mood.

Soon, Rhaegar discovered a concave pit filled with dragon dung and stones.

 Inside, there is a pile of fragments covered with scales.

 “Hiss…”

 A dragon egg hatches, and a young dragon emerges.

Lega spent a lot of effort to dig out the fossilized dragon egg that was almost embedded in the dragon dung, and searched the abandoned dragon cave more carefully.

　　That is the young dragon.

  In about 30 years time, the body size will grow to a size ranging from tens of meters depending on the level of talent, and it will enter the prime of life.

 Once it grows to 100 years old, its size reaches about 100 meters, and it can be called an adult dragon.

Rhaegar simply thought about it, and a dragon of this age was about the same as he estimated it would be at its peak.

 In the family, Gluttony and Wormisor are 90 years old, and both are over 100 meters in size, making them full-grown adult dragons.

Menghuo and Yinyi are similar in age, but the difference in size is slightly larger.

Silver Wing is one-fifth smaller than Wormisor, with a body size of less than 90 meters.

Menghuo is the oldest, and was imprisoned in his prime. His talent was greatly wasted, and his body size can exceed 80 meters.

 Neither of these two dragons reaches the standard of an adult dragon.

 The dragon in the declining stage is easy to understand. If it is over 150 years old, its excessive size begins to affect its physical strength and speed, and it is basically judged that its strength has declined.

 Vhagar still has considerable combat power, but is in a period of decline.

Riding on the back of the dragon, Rhaegar faced the wind and shook the thick fossilized dragon eggs.

 In addition to these impractical knowledge, Dragon's Den also has a pattern that was deliberately destroyed.

Rhaegar could not identify the exact meaning of the pattern.

 But he noticed some details.

There are subtle symbols on the edges of the pattern, which are part of some kind of blood magic.

 “Glutton, keep on hunting.”

Rhaegar shouted loudly and put the fossilized dragon eggs into the sack.

 The remains of dragons and unknown blood witchcraft are disturbing.

 At any rate, the Dragon King family that did this kind of thing has been buried in a catastrophe.

The two hatched dragon eggs have owners, so there is no need to worry about wild dragons outside.

 …

 The sun rises and sets, two days pass by in a hurry.

 Stone Step Islands, a small island.

 “Attack!”

On the blue sea, several warships flying the flag of the Three Women's Kingdom sailed towards a patrol ship flying the flag of three red dragons.

The warship was equipped with a scorpion crossbow, which was aimed at the patrol ship and fired one after another, immediately shooting several holes through the hull.

The ships on both sides continued to approach, and the collision angle penetrated the hull, and a fight was imminent.

 Above the sea, the sky is clear.

Phew!

A dark dragon shadow flashed past, stirring up the changes in the wind and clouds, as fast as a meteor chasing the moon.

Below, the warships of the Three Women's Kingdom surrounded the patrol ship. The pirates jumped over the ship through the iron rope and started a merciless massacre.     “Hiss—”

Suddenly, a dragon roar as dull as a bell suddenly appeared, the dark dragon shadow plunged into the clouds, and the ferocious dragon head aimed at the battlefield and swooped down.

Boom—

Smoke-like green dragon flames spurted out, sweeping across the Three Women's Warship like a ray, burning all the masts and decks.

"ah!…"

　　　…”

 Under the dragon flames, the pirates of the Three Women Kingdom did not even have a chance to jump into the sea, and were burned into charcoal while wailing.

A few unlucky guys were bumped by people around them, and their clothes were stained with green sparks, which stuck together like maggots on the tarsal bones. In a blink of an eye, the fire surged and began to burn close to the skin.

On the back of the dragon, a young man in black robe looked indifferent and blurted out: "Dragon Flame!"

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　…

The giant black dragon swooped down to a certain distance, turned around and lifted into the air. The dragon's head aimed at the warship and sprayed dragon flames. In a few strokes, the battlefield on the sea was transformed into a sea of ​​green fire.

 The patrol ship has been destroyed, and the crew put down the boat to escape to the island.

"prince…"

 Some people looked at the giant dragon and the boy from a distance, cheering and shouting as if they had been reborn.

Rhaegar glanced at it, and the dragon continued to circle in the sky several times, burning any fish that slipped through the net.

 Five days later, he returned to the territory of Westeros.

I have to say that the food in Sothoros is rich in products.

 The glutton hunted more than a dozen long-winged dragons in a row, his hunger completely disappeared, and he enjoyed a full meal.

Lega vaguely sensed that the size of the dragon under his crotch seemed to have grown a little.

 The trouble of being too big, and the progress bit by bit is not very noticeable.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　…

After several warships were burned and sunk into the sea, a sharp and slender dragon roar came from afar, stinging people's ears.

Rhaegar turned his head slightly, and a giant scarlet dragon with a body like a snake flapped its broad wings and soared over quickly.

 Blood Worm—Colaxio.

On the back of the dragon, Daemon was wearing a black steel armor and said in surprise: "Rhaega, you are back from Sothothros."

 “Have a safe journey, go and return quickly.”

Rhaegar looked down at the tragic situation below and asked, "What's going on? The war has started?"

Damon tilted his head and said proudly: "Not yet, this is just an outpost test. I believe the war will come soon."

 Less captured a wild dragon.

The Iron Throne sent people to negotiate with Governor Lys, but the other party refused to meet.

The entire Westeros and the nine Free Trade Cities are clear about this.

 War is coming.

Hearing this, Lei Jia's eyes were slightly cold, and he had already made a strategy in his mind.

He patted the glutton’s dark scales and planned to ride the dragon back to Dragonstone Island.

Daemon spoke in time: "Today there will be an envoy from Braavos meeting the king, and you will come back at the right time."

 “Thank you.”

Rhaegar thanked him, and the glutton flew away.

 …

 Dragonstone Island.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

The glutton galloped all the way back to the cliff and landed on the seaside.

Rhaegar picked up a sack of dragon eggs and calmly slid down the dragon's back.

Arrived in front of the gate of Stone Drum Tower, I happened to meet Stephen of the Kingsguard receiving a group of foreigners wearing luxurious silk clothes.

"prince."

Stephen greeted Rhaegar respectfully when he saw him.

Rhaegar glanced at the black-haired and brown-skinned Frenchmen and asked, "Sir, are they the envoys of Braavos?"

 “Yes, Your Majesty will receive them.”

Stephen answered honestly.

 “Let’s go together.”

Rhaegar handed the sack to the dragon guard and warned, "Leave it to the dragon guards to look after it carefully."

 Inside are more than a dozen striped and swamp pterosaur eggs.

And a rare dragon egg of a shadowy pterosaur that can grow up to sixty feet in size and has dark scales all over its body.

 Shadow Pterosaur is far more powerful than the other two species of its kind, and its number is very rare.

 Hunted several Shadow Winged Dragons before I got a precious Pimple Egg.

 Push the door to enter the Stone Drum Tower and go straight to the conference hall on the middle floor.

 During this period, the envoy from Braavos wanted to chat and spoke fluent Valyrian.

Rhaegar chatted briefly and learned the reason for their visit.

The Sea King of Braavos serves as a host and invites Targaryen and the Three Women Kingdom to Braavos to participate in a negotiation between Westeros and the Free Trade Cities.

 …

 At night, the moon and stars are scarce.

 In the Picture Table Hall, the imperial meeting was held.

 Viserys and a group of royal ministers, as well as the supernumerary sea serpents Corlys and Daemon.

Rhaegar sat alone on one side of the stone table, with Aegon, Helena and several younger brothers and sisters standing beside him.

 The candlelight flickered, and the first person spoke.

Viserys looked stiff and deliberated: "Should we go to the negotiations in Braavos? Who would be the appropriate person to send?"

Braavos is so close to the Three Women’s Kingdom that it’s hard not to think of it as a grand banquet.

“The negotiations are related to the relationship between Westeros and the Free Cities, so it is necessary to go there.”

Colliss looked indifferent, playing with a seahorse stone sculpture in his hand, and said thoughtfully: "If you trust me, I can lead the fleet and work with a royal minister."

He has many business partners in Braavos and the Free Trade City.

 When operating at sea, he has full confidence.

Leonor hesitated for a moment and agreed: "Your Majesty, I am your king's hand. I can negotiate on your behalf."

 The king cannot risk his life, so it is best for him to go.

 “No need, Lord Leonor.”

Rhaegar interrupted and said calmly: "I'm not questioning your ability, but the stakes in this negotiation are very important, and you may not have the right to take advantage."

Leonor was stunned for a moment and said, "Prince, do you plan to go there in person?"

　　"Targaryen's negotiations will naturally come from Targaryen."

Rhaegar's eyes were determined, he glanced at the four brothers and sisters beside him, and ruled: "I will lead the team myself, and Aegon will ride with me on the dragon!"

 Braavos is known as the illegitimate daughter of Valyria, but in fact she is mostly the descendant of Valyria's slaves.

This time, he wants Braavos to remember what a true dragon is.
