Chapter 96 Income Inventory
After leaving the dragon's lair, Ian sent most of the remaining mercenaries, including Bronn, to the house on the riverside to wait. He claimed that he was going to the Red Keep to honor his honor, and then sent people to find them.
Using this as an excuse, Ian successfully got rid of these mercenaries, leaving only Dorian the Black Falcon, who was obviously very loyal, and his two closest partners.
Originally, Ian had thought about taking a large part of the Black Falcon mercenaries to Pentos, but that was a plan drawn up when 'everything went well'. If there was no attack by the golden robes, Ian could find many reasons to persuade them to accept his new vest with the cooperation of money.
But now they are on the run. If he loses his identity as 'Lucian Lannister' again, Ian can't guarantee what will happen.
Even Bronn didn't dare to stay.
In order to take care of Rohr's injury, Ian bought a carriage in King's Landing, and then left King's Landing through the Lion's Gate with a few people.
During this period, Dorian raised doubts, but after Ian told him that he had other purposes, he faithfully chose to obey.
The group of people walked north along Rosby Road, which is a shortcut from King's Landing to Duskendale.
It wasn't until that night that Ian and the others arrived at the Rosby family's castle, which was not much larger than a village.
Because of the darkness, they decided to rest here temporarily.
And Ian finally found time to take stock of his gains from this trip to King's Landing.
After logging into the system, the first thing he saw was a bunch of new emails in his mailbox.
In order of time, they are:
[Complete Bounty Mission 2 ‘Treasure Hunt’ to Reign]
[My subordinates successfully kill a player, gain 2 points, seize 1 point, and gain 1 extra point of mental power]
[My subordinates successfully kill a player, gain 2 points, seize 2 points, and gain 1 extra point of strength]
Judging from these two emails, it should be that during the time when the golden robes attacked him, Sir Grantham also succeeded in ambushing the group of Pentos players and successfully killed those two players.
Then here’s last night’s settlement report:
[Settlement report on the 28th, current number of remaining players: 56]
Not so many people died in King's Landing. Judging from this data, player conflicts undoubtedly occurred in several other cities with treasure chests.
The last email came from early this morning.
[Successfully kill a player, gain 4 points, capture 18 points, 3 skill points, 1 basic skill scroll of your choice, and gain 4 extra points of strength]
This was obviously the profit report for killing the golden-robed player, because Ian threw the torch himself, igniting the wildfire in the tunnel and burning the opponent to death, so the profit from this wave was not halved.
Judging from the skill points and basic skill scrolls of his choice, as well as a full 18 points.
The gold-robed player obviously also completed the primary achievement of [Butcher] (killing 3 players with his own hands), and he did not spend points to buy clues.
In other words, Ian's reasoning after being forced into the basement was basically consistent with the truth.
This made Ian couldn't help but wonder, if the golden-robed player was willing to spend money and buy all four clues directly, would he be able to think that the tunnel would lead to the dragon when he saw the tunnel in the basement of the Stranger Temple? hole.
Coupled with the fact that there are a large number of wildfire jars hidden in the dragon's lair in the original work, he probably won't go into the tunnel to chase people in person, right?
Of course, facts have no assumptions and everyone has their own shortcomings.
He was greedy, while the golden robe was stingy, and both of them paid the price for each other's shortcomings.
Shaking his head and not thinking any more, Ian began to check the updated information page.
Since I bought 20 points of potion last night to save Rohr, I spent another 10 points to expand my backpack this morning.
The final updated layout information is:
[Ian: Strength 32, Agility 27, Mental Strength 7
Skills: Basic etiquette, basic reading and writing of common language, advanced swordsmanship, advanced equestrian skills, intermediate lance skills
Attribute points: 0
Skill points: 6
Points: 26
Props: Basic skill scroll of your choice*2]
In addition to the data on the page, Ian's wealth at this moment already includes 6,500 gold dragons in the system backpack, some "change" that Case carried on his body, and a two-handed Valyrian steel giant sword.
His forces include the two powerful 'religious warriors' Rohr and Case, the 'Dornish man' Denzel whom he had already convinced before going to King's Landing, and the 'Black Falcon' Dorian whom he is about to persuade.
"Dorian, come here, I have something to tell you." After finishing the post-war inventory, Ian waved and called Dorian over.
Ian has always been very good at judging people, and he believed in Dorian's loyalty to him after he avenged his adoptive father.
After leaving the dragon's lair, Rebecca passed through a dilapidated watchtower, and then began to walk down a winding staircase to the hills of Rhaenys. The buildings to the north of the dragon's lair were almost completely deserted, and they looked like they had not been inhabited for a century. scene.
After walking down the moss-covered stairs, she re-entered the urban area with a breath of life.
Then she walked through two alleys before arriving in front of a three-story wooden building. On the door of the building was a gorgeous oil lamp hung on a heavy chain, covered with a leaded red glass lampshade.
"Shataya's House, Littlefinger's brothel," Rebecca muttered and walked inside.
"Janos Slynt," Petyr looked at the visitor with a strange smile, "The commander of the City Guard has arrived."
Upon hearing this, Wallis immediately turned to look at the short, bald man who had just entered the conference hall: "Do you know why we came to you?"
"The previous bloodbath in Flea Bottom?" Genos said angrily. Ever since he received the report that his entire team of golden robes in Flea Bottom had been annihilated, he knew that sooner or later the Imperial Council would talk to him. .
"Very good, we're close." Wallis nodded.
"Isn't this the case?" Genos looked at the bald eunuch in surprise.
"It's this matter, but not the matter itself." Petyr took over the words and took out an envelope from his pocket. "Here is a letter about your income from corruption and bribery over the years."
"Absurd!" Genos's frog face turned red immediately, "This is slander! This is complete slander!"
"It lists in detail your behavior of buying and selling official positions over the years, as well as your behavior of collecting bribes from junior officers. In addition, it also mentions the truth about the mysterious deaths of the two witnesses found when Lord Aylin accused you last time. "Petyr ignored Janos's retort and said calmly.
"I said it was slander!" Genos was still stern, but his tone was no longer as confident as he was a second ago.
