Chapter 328 Attack
It is true that Viserys wields great force.
He has more than 60,000 troops, and has three dragons that will grow bigger and bigger. He has all the fame, wealth, and force.
Viserys could completely conquer the Seven Kingdoms with violence and drown all opposing voices in the sea.
Therefore, he can not gain the trust of the nobles of the seven countries, and even depose them all as commoners and replace them with foreigners.
It is also possible to rule by violence without gaining the trust and support of the people of Westeros.
But if he doesn't have either, what's the point of Viserys having the throne?
It's more difficult to rule than to conquer, and Viserys doesn't understand this.
Therefore, he did not want to intervene in this war prematurely.
And he didn't want to fall for the truth and end up with a reputation of backstabbing the coalition forces in a war between the living and the dead that affected all mankind.
Viserys chose to leave Pantos at this time.
Since all his people have left Pantos, no one can pick out the fault in this regard.
In the future, it can even come as a savior and win more support from the people.
This was Viserys' ideal plan.
But now the problem is also obvious, that is, the distance is too far.
The connection between the 'servant' Bessie and Viserys he recovered by injecting the black mist has long been broken.
Viserys had no way to communicate directly with Bessie right now. He guessed that it was the distance, not the problem of being in a special area.
Because Viserys is still able to communicate with the Black Dragon Balerrain.
Although the connection was cut off, he didn't think the two sides would soon decide the winner.
It is not very likely that the human coalition wants to defeat the army of the dead.
It is not easy for the coalition to be defeated in a short period of time. After all, this is the most powerful trump card of the Baratheon Dynasty, which has assembled the army of the seven countries, not to mention that there are a lot of natural dangers behind the coalition.
The easy-to-defend and hard-to-attack Carlin Bay, the perilous Neck, the Blood Gate of the Valley, the Twin River City, Casterly Rock City, etc.
There is still the possibility that humans will defend against the White Walkers.
However, the greatest natural danger that human beings can rely on is the Great Wall. Even the magic of the White Walkers cannot cross the Great Wall.
But who let the Great Wall collapse because of human's own infighting.
Viserys was thinking about the outside world, while the expedition to the Valyrian ruins continued.
Everyone was fortunate to have followed this ancient dragon road without encountering any trouble during the day.
The expedition then camped at a suitable place along the road and rested for the night, before setting off for the capital of Valyria the next day.
However, the expedition team was not happy for long, and naturally it would not be smooth sailing in such a dangerous environment.
Viserys was marching in the middle of the team, and he had been keenly aware that there were more and more figures peeking in the woods beside the avenue.
Pairs of blood red eyes, and even saliva flowed down, if it weren't for the large number of people in the expedition team, these monsters were a little uncertain, maybe they would have already rushed up.
"Be careful."
"Raise vigilance—"
Viserys was the first to be alert, holding one hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist.
The surrounding mercenaries and slaves obviously did not perceive the danger.
"Um."
Hearing Viserys' warning, Mia also became nervous and hummed softly.
bass--
She took out the dagger from her thigh, turned a 'dagger dance' skillfully, and then clenched it tightly in her hand. Gus 'Iron Fist' and their little brothers were also alert.
And at this time.
Crisis came suddenly.
The monsters hiding in the woods and peeping at humans have gathered more and more, and then finally a monster couldn't help but pounce first.
Roar--
They hadn't seen so much blood food for a long time. The sharp fangs were stained with saliva, and they let out a terrifying roar. They rushed out of the woods and bit the neck of a slave who was caught off guard.
The slave had a short sword pinned to his waist, and in his hand a wooden stick was beating the grass to prevent snakes from running around.
But he never imagined that such a monster with black and white hair was still hidden in the woods.
The monster ran extremely fast on all fours, opened its sharp fangs and bit his throat, directly smashing his throat.
The blood spurted out in an instant and flowed back into the trachea. He couldn't even make a cry for help, and then he was dragged and bitten by the monster and got into the woods.
"Enemy attack!!"
The monster attacked suddenly, and the team responded very quickly. The slaves were unable to fight and fled in all directions, while the mercenaries pulled out their weapons and greeted them.
"Quick, kill all these monsters in formation!"
The commander of the expedition, Wilder, saw that he was in trouble and rushed up on his horse, and gave a loud command at the same time.
However, it is a pity that the mercenaries are not the soldiers he trains on weekdays.
The strength of these mercenaries alone may surpass that of ordinary soldiers, but they are not capable of fighting in teams, and they do not know how to form formations, so it is easy to fall into the state of fighting individually.
The commander's order did not affect too many people, only a few dozen people formed a circle to try to defend against these monsters.
And more mercenaries still choose to fight on their own.
"kill!"
puff--
A mercenary held a long sword and pierced the throat of a monster, but before he could get up, another monster smashed his head with a sharp claw.
And Viserys also participated in the melee. His swordsmanship is excellent, and his speed and strength are far beyond ordinary people.
The monster's ferocious face looks like a werewolf, with sharp fangs stained with blood, and a pair of scarlet eyes.
The powerful hind limbs have strong bouncing ability, and the dark claws easily cut open a mercenary's belly.
"Roar--"
The monster killed a mercenary, let out a terrifying roar, and rushed towards Viserys in an instant.
"Be careful!"
When Mia saw the monster staring at Viserys, her heart tightened slightly, and she exclaimed.
And Viserys was paying attention to the monster's attack, ignoring Mia's voice. He calmly watched the opponent pounce with a blood-stained long sword in his hand.
Then, when the werewolf was about to fall on him, he quickly dodged the monster's attack.
Immediately, the long sword in his hand pierced through the werewolf's belly easily.
puff--
He moved very quickly.
It looks like a very skilled butcher, the long sword tore the monster's belly and smashed its internal organs.
