Chapter 251: Korakshuu's Ideal
Shortly after Korakshuu left, a few remaining soldiers crawled out of the ruins and hurried towards Eagle's Nest Castle.
Soon the lords of the valley learned that the Bloody Gate had collapsed, and the League of the Righteous, who were preparing to stay in the Eyrie to assist Robert Arryn, quickly gathered to discuss countermeasures.
Finally, everyone unanimously decided to go to the Blood Gate first to take a look and then make a decision.
After all, it was impossible to make an intuitive judgment just by listening to the description of the defeated soldiers from the Blood Gate. In the final analysis, they still suspected that the soldiers who escaped from the Blood Gate were exaggerating.
Accompanied by dozens of guards, everyone rushed to the Blood Gate without stopping.
When they arrived at the ruins of the Blood Gate, they were stunned. They looked at the ruined Blood Gate for a long time in silence. The melted stones were still steaming and had not completely cooled down.
"He doesn't seem to be exaggerating. It seems that we really only have two choices." After a long silence, Countess Waynwood spoke first.
She really wasn't trying to discourage everyone, because according to what the defeated soldiers of the Blood Gate said, the indestructible Blood Gate turned into ruins in just a moment.
If even the sturdy Blood Gate is useless, there is no hope of victory in the valley.
Bronze Jon was silent for a moment, then took the initiative to make a suggestion that no one else was willing to say.
"Pledge allegiance. As long as the Poseidon family allows the valley to maintain its current status, we will swear allegiance to him and go to war with the Iron Throne."
When everyone saw that John was the first to propose surrender, they all expressed their agreement with his proposal.
As long as they did not propose surrender first, they would not be so stubborn as to go to war with the dragon for honor.
Finally, the Justice League wrote a letter of allegiance to Jack on behalf of Robert Arryn.
The letter invited Jack to come to the Eyrie to accept Robert Arryn's loyalty.
As long as Jack agrees to their conditions, they can immediately send troops to help Jack deal with the Iron Throne.
Jack had just crawled out of Sansa Stark's bed when he received the invitation to the Vale.
As a traditional aristocratic beauty, Sansa vividly interpreted to Jack what it means to be as soft as water.
Perhaps it is because they have lived in the North for many years, the three idiots do not give people a warm feeling, but rather a somewhat cold feeling, which is completely different from Daenerys, who is like a little furnace.
After Jack read the letter of allegiance sent by the Valley, he also wrote a letter back to the Valley nobles, asking them to go to Seagull Town, where he would accept their allegiance.
At the same time, Jack assembled his troops and headed directly to the Bloody Gate. If the other party did not accept Jack's proposal, he would lead his men to directly flatten the castles of the major nobles in the valley.
It would be great if you agree. We can gather here at the Bloody Gate and head south to King's Landing.
The next day, the Vale receives ravens from the Twins, who wonder why Jack would accept their pledge of allegiance in Gulltown.
But Seagull Town is still the territory of the Valley, so they are not afraid of Jack's actions.
Or perhaps they never thought that Jack would do something dirty. No conqueror would choose to do such a thing because it would only bring trouble to his rule.
At the agreed time, except for the Alliance of Justice, most of the nobles in the valley went to Seagull Town.
Even Robert Arryn, who was in his teens, followed John and others to Seagulltown. After all, the protagonist of this oath was Robert Arryn.
Although the young Robert Arryn had no ability to manage the Vale, he was still the representative of the Vale.
In the evening, a roar resounded throughout Seagull Town. The roar seemed to come from ancient times, making Seagull Town, which was originally noisy due to the large number of outsiders, quiet down instantly.
Especially John and others, as they had seen it with their own eyes and were roared at by Korakshu face to face, they were very sure that this was not the roar of the red dragon.
Now the roar was even louder and it didn't come from the sky.
Just when everyone was puzzled, a familiar dragon roar was heard, and Korakshuu appeared above Seagull Town and flew towards the dock.
Upon seeing this, John and his men immediately ordered their vassals to put on their armor, take up their swords, and quickly head to the dock.
Jack chose the Seagull Town Pier not to get some French fries, of course, but to demonstrate.
As for how to demonstrate, it is obvious. What can make people feel more oppressive than Poseidon's body of more than 200 meters?
As Korakhu slowly landed on the open space at the dock, countless free people gathered in the distance to watch Korakhu.
Obviously, this big guy with a wingspan of dozens of meters made them feel scared and very curious at the same time.
Especially the scarlet scales of Korakshu that exude a metallic luster. Such a striking and glaring color makes Korakshu look even more hideous.
Jack did not get off the dragon's back. John and others soon arrived at the dock of Seagulltown, along with Robert Arryn.
It has to be said that John and others are still very loyal to the Irene family.
Even though Robert Arryn was young, crazy, and even mentally ill, they still let Robert Arryn walk in front.
For Robert Arryn, today is destined to be a turning point in his life.
Because today he will become a loyal believer of the sea god, and will completely get rid of the epilepsy inherited from his mother.
Jack jumped off the dragon's back and walked in front of everyone without fear. "Is this child Robert Arryn, the current Guardian of the Vale?"
"Yes, he is Jon Arryn's son and the rightful heir. As long as you can ensure that the Vale will not change like the North, the knights of the Vale will fight for you."
Hearing what Jon said, Jack smiled in his heart. He was determined to reform Westeros.
The only reason they agreed to this now is because Sea King Island is preparing to attack Qarth, leaving them with no extra manpower to support Westeros.
After conquering Qarth, we will sign a "Political and Military Alliance Treaty" with other trading city-states in Essos.
After dealing with the Night King, we will mobilize forces from the Sea King Island to completely pacify Westeros.
At that time, he would take action against the trade castle in Essos. In thirty years at most, Jack would be able to completely control the two continents.
And now the development of the Sothoryos continent is on the right track.
But what was disappointing was that the pioneer team did not find any useful relics or documents in the Yilin ruins.
As for the Yimen Tower left by the ancient Ghis Empire, there is no need to say more.
It has now been transformed into an outpost city, attracting a large number of merchants to trade at Yimenta Wharf.
"He doesn't seem normal. He has epilepsy. I heard that he still needs milk. Is that true?"
Jack looked at Robert Arryn. This thin and pale boy was the kind that looked abnormal at first glance.
Jack's words undoubtedly made John and the others unhappy, and their faces looked even uglier. It was true that they came to surrender, but you, Jack, couldn't humiliate them like this.
"If you just want to humiliate us, you succeeded, but the valley will never submit to you."
"Don't you want to cure him? I mean the physical illness, but of course the mental illness can be cured to a certain extent."
Jack interrupted John's roar, causing John and many other nobles in the valley to be stunned.
Of course they wanted to cure Robert Arryn, but they had seen the best doctors in the Vale and still couldn't solve Jon Arryn's condition.
In fact, they expected a normal lord more than anyone else, and they did not even dare to hope that the lord would be a wise lord.
After all, what good child would drink milk in public at the age of six or seven?
Unfortunately, Robert Arryn, their future lord, not only drank milk in public at the age of seven, but was also very prone to rage and had epilepsy, which made Yohn and others very worried.
"What do you mean?" Jörgen asked, replacing "you" with "new".
Jack smiled and said to everyone: "Atlantis believes in Poseidon, who is a real and great god. I can let Poseidon heal Robert Arryn's body and soul, but the question is what price can you pay?"
John and the others looked at each other, half believing and half doubting Jack's words, and even most of the nobles didn't believe it at all.
But Jon still said tentatively: "We can fight for you and obey your orders in full, but how about you, um, I mean, do you need to perform any strange ceremony or need any sacrifice?"
In John's opinion, what Jack said about letting Poseidon heal Robert Arryn's body and soul should be the same as those mysterious warlocks, using some sacrificial objects and strange spells to perform a strange and useless ceremony.
It's not surprising that Jon would think this way.
This kind of thing happens a lot in Westeros.
Samwell Tarly's father once used similar methods, hoping to make Sam brave and strong.
But obviously, judging from the results, he failed and Sam remained the same.
"Count Royce, please don't compare those weird liars with me. Believe me, sooner or later, I will completely eradicate those weird beliefs."
Jack turned and looked out to sea, "The sea goddess has arrived. Are you ready to kneel down and greet her?"
Jack's words made John Royce and others change their expressions slightly, and they all began to wonder if Jack himself was a psychopath?
Or some weird mental illness?
Otherwise, why are you talking nonsense here, facing the sea, what are you pretending to be?
Just as John Royce was about to give Jack a way out, waves suddenly hit the Seagull Town Pier.
It seemed as if a huge monster was rushing towards the dock.
Korakshuu, who had been protecting Jack, also flew into the sky at this time.
He hated the sea water. If he had the power to choose, he would rather sleep in the dragon's nest with a bunch of golden dragons.
Korakhu also told Jack his thoughts.
Jack asked Carax to hold on for another twenty years, and after he conquered Westeros and Essos, he would build a dragon's nest for him in the Seychelles Islands.
When the time comes, let him be the Dragon King of the Dragon's Nest, and he can sleep on the golden mountain every day.
