Game of Thrones: Battle Royale Game

"Wouldn't such continued looting affect the income of their territory?"

"Anyway, the knights' territories are very scattered, and they do not have the right to tax passing caravans. As long as the ghost of White Wall City does not attack their manor, it will basically not affect them. As long as Darry City or Harrenhal still have If one of them had the power they once had, it would be impossible for this group of robbers to run amok here." Dorian smiled mockingly.

It was such a bad era. There were people plundering the fiefdoms of small nobles. If the local nobles did not take the lead in petitioning, the upper nobles would generally turn a blind eye.

If he is a particularly responsible prince, as long as the robbed caravan goes to him to complain, he will handle the problem.

But unfortunately, the Duke of Riverrun, Hoster Tully, is critically ill, and the Hand of the King, Jon Arryn, was poisoned to death by his own wife who was instigated by Littlefinger.

This leads to the fact that no one can really control the ghosts of the White Walled City.

"Okay," Ian sighed, "Is there anything else you can think of? Anything."

"When you asked, I remembered that I accidentally overheard 'Mountain Weasel' and his adoptive father discussing a problem before."

"Who is the Mountain Weasel?"

"A squad leader in the mercenary group. He is responsible for our group's search for the Black Fire Treasure."

"Where is this person?"

"I don't know, he has been searching for the Black Fire Treasure in White Wall City recently," Dorian shook his head, "But he will return to the station every once in a while to report the progress to his adoptive father."

"Won't the ghosts of White Wall City attack your treasure hunting team?" Ian was curious.

"Never!" Dorian shook his head quickly. "This incident made my adoptive father suspect that the other party could not find the treasure by himself and wanted to use our power to find it, so he deliberately let us in."

"It's not impossible. By the way, what did you overhear before?"

"A week ago, I overheard my adoptive father mentioning the mole when talking with Shan Weasel. They seemed to know who the mole was, but when I asked my adoptive father, he told me not to worry about it anymore. He said This will all be over soon."

"Fortunately, you remembered it," Ian shook his head and chuckled. "Although I don't know what it means yet, I have a hunch that the key to unlocking the truth is hidden in this sentence."

"You mean, it was the traitor who killed my adoptive father?"

"This is a simple but superficial guess. You can't get any valuable conclusions through this guess, can you? Judging from the current situation, we can only say that your adoptive father's death may be related to the mole. As for more information, I need time to sort out and think about it. But before that, we have to find this mountain weasel first."

"Even if we find him, he will not serve us. He only serves the leader of the mercenary group." Dorian explained.

Mercenary leader? For a moment, Ian suddenly had a bold idea. Is it possible for him to use this Dorian to seize control of the Black Falcon mercenary group?

Although he could not have hope for the loyalty of a group of mercenaries, these people could still be used until there were signs of defeat or uneven distribution of the spoils.

"So why don't you try to compete for the position of leader? You are the adopted son of the previous Black Falcon, aren't you?" Ian decided to put this idea into practice.

"This is not a title. There is no such thing as a son inheriting his father's legacy." Dorian was a little embarrassed.

"But I said before, you will become the new Black Falcon." This time Ian changed to a more affirmative tone.

"Sir? You mean, you want to help me?" Dorian finally understood what this 'Sir Lucien Lannister' meant, and his emotions suddenly became excited.

However, Dorian calmed down quickly, "But Sir, you don't know that participating in the election of Grand Master requires the nomination of at least four mercenary captains, and I only have one supporter, and I am confident of convincing one more."

"With him, that's three," Ian pointed at Grantham. "As for the fourth one, or even the Nth one who is enough for you to be elected as the new leader, Golden Dragon will help us convince them."

"You want to sponsor me?" Dorian said happily. Mercenaries usually have no principles. As long as you give them money, convincing them is not a big problem.

"It's obvious isn't it?"

"Then what's the price?" Dorian was not stupid and asked immediately.

"Allegiance."

"Black Falcon is a mercenary group, Sir. No one can trust the loyalty of mercenaries. Even if I get the position of Grand Commander, it is impossible for me to lead a mercenary group to be loyal to you. But if you can check If you tell the truth about my adoptive father's death and help him avenge him, I can swear allegiance to you and do my best to maintain the loyalty of the mercenary group to you."

Ding! Just as Ian was about to answer, to his surprise, the system that had been silent for a long time suddenly responded.

"Deal." Ian answered Dorian hastily, and then immediately closed his eyes to check.

[Discover the trigger mission: the truth behind the death of Black Falcon

Mission description: Black Falcon was attacked by a military heavy crossbow in the middle of the night in a room suspected of being a knight of the Grafson family. His adopted son Dorian hopes that you can help him find out the truth about the murder of his Black Falcon and help him revenge.

Mission reward: Dorian will swear allegiance to you

Additional reward: unknown]

[Accept (consumes 1 point)] [Reject]

Going on a mission at this time?

As soon as Ian thought about it, he found what the two optional tasks that had popped up so far had in common: the aboriginal people formally made a request to the player and promised specific rewards.

Without hesitation, Ian clicked accept directly. He was so wealthy that he didn't need to save these points now.

The mission interface quickly changed.

[Optional Mission 1: The truth behind Black Falcon’s death

Mission goal: Find out the truth behind Black Falcon's death and avenge him.

Mission reward: Dorian will swear allegiance to you

Additional reward: unknown]

[Current remaining points: 13]

Looking at the refreshed mission interface, Ian couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

It only changed the mission description into the mission goal, and did not provide any clues other than Dorian's description. Moreover, the additional rewards of the mission were still displayed as 'unknown', which meant that Ian could not pass the content of the additional rewards. Determine the difficulty of the task.

This means that the system does not give players a single loophole to take advantage of.

Eh? wrong! Who says there are no loopholes to exploit? Ian suddenly thought of an excellent way to confirm the existence of the Blackfire Treasure.

Although the mission will not provide players with any additional information, as long as there is a Blackfire Treasure mission, it can at least prove that this thing exists, right?

Of course, the test is not now. He still needs to continue discussing the Black Falcon Mercenary Group with Dorian.
