Chapter 90 Knight Queen

"That's all?" Dany raised her eyebrows, "The Gis people have sold slaves for thousands of years, yet they haven't met any decent enemies."

"Two reasons are enough to stop the centaurs from attacking, and Aposta is located in Slaver's Bay. Meereen and Yunkai may have trade competition with Aposta, but they are by no means enemies.

The eastern hinterland is almost all Ghis people of the same race, while the Laza people in the east of the mountains are of a different race.But they are 'sheep people', no threat. "

"What if?" Dany pondered for a long time before slowly asking: "If slavery disappears, who will suffer huge losses in it except the Giss?"

"Your Highness, what are you planning to do?" White Beard asked in shock.

"Me? What can I do?" Dany shrugged and said with a smile: "Anyone who participates in the slave trade is guilty. You said this, I just want to know who are the heinous guys in this world besides me .”

Whitebeard stared at her for a while, but couldn't tell if she was joking.

"The slave trade is the most important part of the entire great maritime trade. City-states such as Qarth, Volantis, and Rees are almost entirely supported by slaves. It's not that no one has tried to end slavery, but"

Speaking of this, the old man sighed helplessly and said, "Your Highness, the Andals originated from the continent of Essos, you know?"

"I heard that they established a kingdom in Andasino in the northwest of the mainland?"

The old man nodded and asked again, "What about now?"

"There seems to be no sign of them," Dany said.

"The Andal civilization and the Church of the Seven Gods, which originated in the continent of Essos, have almost disappeared on this continent. On the contrary, in Westeros, Andal is the most powerful culture.

I don't know what happened back then, but it is a fact that the teachings of the Seven Gods have declined in this continent, and the teachings of the Seven Gods are firmly against slavery. "

Speaking of which, he asked again: "Do you know how Braavos was built?"

Dany said: "In Qarth, listen to an old zebra man, the Jogosnai, he told me. A group of Valyrian slaves escaped from the Dragon King under the guidance of the Moonsinger. A water city was built at the northwestern tip of the mainland."

"Yes, Braavos was built by a group of slaves. As the head of the nine free trade cities, Braavos is extremely powerful.

100 years ago, the Sea King of Braavos fought with Pentos for more than ten years in order to abolish slavery. Pentos lost and promised to abolish slavery.

Does Her Royal Highness know that there are slaves in Pentos now? ' he asked with a white beard looking at Dany.

"Yes, I've seen many servants wearing slave collars at Magister Illyrio's mansion."

"So you understand?" The old man smiled bitterly, and sighed: "Unless the Seven Gods come to the world and stay in the world, slavery will never be abolished.

Whoever dares to have this idea is to become an enemy of the whole world.

Even the Braavosi people don't really sympathize with slaves, but for political purposes, they use the slogan of abolishing slavery to fight for the right to rule the upper plains of the Lorne River. "

"So that's how it is." Dani suddenly raised her head and asked, "Arstan, how is your sword skill?"

"What?" The topic jumped too quickly, and Whitebeard didn't realize it all at once.

"I heard that the two younger sisters of Aegon the Conqueror are powerful knights. Visenya also held the 'Dark Sister' to save Aegon's life from the assassins?"

The Dark Sister is also a Valyrian steel sword, a dainty lady sword whose last owner was Bloodraven Brynden Rivers, one of the noble bastards (half-brother of Daemon Blackfyre).

The poor king Aegon IV has done a terrible job to his descendants. The two swords of the Targaryen family were handed over to the illegitimate son, and now they are lost.

"Uh, yes." The topic changed again, and the old man became more and more at a loss.

"How do you think my talent compares to Visenia's?"

"Oh, you want to learn martial arts." Now the old man understood and said happily, "I can guide you, and I will definitely train you into a powerful female knight."

As if he was afraid that Dani would not be confident, he said enthusiastically: "Prince Rhaegar was obsessed with reading since he was a child, and many people worried that he would become the second Saint Baelor.

Later, when he read something in the book, he suddenly decided to become a warrior.

At that time, he was not much younger than you, but after he trained hard, he soon became a knight in the arena. "

"What did he read in the book?" Dany asked curiously.

"This..." Whitebeard shook his head and said, "I'm not sure, I only guess that it might be a prophecy, the one from Azor Ahai. Maybe His Royal Highness has realized his mission, why, I don't know."

Practicing martial arts to kill aliens?

Alas, brother, you really think too much, you are not the prophesied warrior at all.

Hearing that she still had a chance to become a master, Dani was happy, but suddenly became hesitant.

If you can only make do with becoming a third-rate swordsman, it’s okay to be a knight with Whitebeard, just exercise your body, but if you have the chance to become a first-rate master, then you can’t make do with it.

"I think it's better for a woman to be a water dancer," she said.

If Westeros is a knight civilization, the nine free trade city-states are maritime trade and assassin civilizations.

People who practice martial arts in trading city-states all follow the way of assassins, light and agile, proficient in stealth and hiding

The Water Dancer is one such swordsman, fast and deadly with his sword, fast and graceful in movement, stealth, and balance.

Legend has it that the most powerful water dancers are able to fight on the water's surface without causing a ripple.

In addition, the strongest and most ruthless woman in "Game of Thrones", Arya (Arya Stark), is a water dancer.

There is no difference between a third-rate water dancer and a third-rate knight, but if they can reach the first-class level, women with weaker physical strength are undoubtedly more suitable for water dancers.

After Dani had explained her reasons, Whitebeard nodded and said, "Your Highness, you have thought very carefully. If you become a water dancer, your future achievements will be even higher. But the question is, why did you learn martial arts?"

"Well, lead the army to fight to prevent being assassinated." She said.

"Then you should become a knight. The water dancer is an attacking assassin. On the chaotic battlefield, the survivability of the water dancer is not even as good as that of an ordinary knight, because he has no armor."

Then, he pointed to Jorah, and took him as an example: "Braavos' chief court swordsman who is responsible for protecting the king of the sea is the strongest water dancer. If the armor is removed from both sides, he can fight ten knights like a knight." , while unscathed—"

"You fart!" Jorah raged.

Whitebeard waved his hand to calm him down, and continued: "But wearing this Valyrian steel armor, Ser Jorah can easily kill ten chief swordsmen.

If 100 Jorah knights in ordinary armor faced 100 chief swordsmen on the battlefield, the knights could easily wipe out the swordsmen. "

Dani understood what the old man meant, and thought about it: "You also said that the chief swordsman is responsible for protecting Aquaman. From now on, I will ride a dragon even if I go to the battlefield, but it is more important to defend against assassins every day."

"I think the daily task of defending against assassins belongs to the Kingsguard. Otherwise," Whitebeard looked at Jorah and said calmly, "otherwise this Valyrian steel armor would be wasted."

Jorah puffed up his chest, and gave the old man a smug look, knowing that he still brooded over the loss of his armor.

That's right, if Whitebeard voluntarily reveals his identity, the armor must belong to him.

"Princess, what Neptune needs more is the insight of the water dancer. The water dancer is good at observation and can detect assassins in advance. You can learn the way of the knight first, and then you can learn from him when you meet a brilliant water dancer. Skills are not contradictory," Jorah said.

"Okay, tomorrow I will learn swordsmanship with Whitebeard."

Before the sun rose the next day, around four or five o'clock in the morning, Dany put on leather armor, leather pants, and riding boots, and went to the deck to practice swords with Whitebeard.

Without special stance and strength training, White Beard first helped her adjust her center of gravity, and then taught her the standard posture of holding and swinging a sword.

He said he would continue to teach her steps once she was able to control her center of gravity while swinging the sword.

When Dani asked if there was any strength training, the old man told her that she was already doing strength training during the sword swing.

She didn't quite understand it at first, but when the sun rose, she swung the heavy two-handed sword 300 times in a row, and the stream of sweat flowing down the heels of her legs into her boots made her understand that the old man was not lying.

This is really strength training.

The knight sword is so heavy!

It was about eight or nine o'clock after she finished her morning exercises, she went back to her room to take a shower, changed her clothes and was having breakfast when two Aposta men came over.

They were clerks from Krazny, asking if they could give them an estimate of Dany's belongings.

In this way, we can know her purchasing power.

—Yesterday Dany asked the slave master to reserve the Unsullied for her.

Dany glanced at Grole and said with a smile: "Will Governor Illyrio be angry if I sell the goods?"

"This..." Blackbeard glanced at the Serenity not far away, and said hesitantly, "Didn't you have a ship of gold, silver and jewels from Euron?"

"Maybe not enough," she laughed.

"How many Unsullied do you want to buy?!" Blackbeard said in shock.

"How much? I didn't hear clearly, that bitch, Your Majesty, how many slaves do you want to sell?" Krazny stood up in shock, and asked the little translator who also had a dull expression.

Today Dani and his party walked through the red brick streets again, coming from Pride Square.

Krazny's pyramid was built here, and Pride Square is his "yard".

This time his servant brought Dani and the others to the garden at the top of the pyramid. It is about 150 square meters, covered with green grass, surrounded by persimmon trees and apple trees. Big golden persimmons and bright red apples hang on the branches together, very beautiful .

There is also a pool on the north side of the garden, where you can soak in and watch the beautiful view of the harbor.

It was still the twin milkmaid girls fanning the slave master. He sat on a tall wooden chair with his back against the pool, like a throne, and Dany sat opposite him on a low soft couch two meters long. Jorah, Bai Hu Zi, Qiao Ge, and Ji Qi stood behind her.

Well, there is also a maid holding a huge beige parasol above her head.

"Master, Her Majesty the Queen wants to buy all the Unsullied in Aposta, all of them." After receiving Dani's confirming eyes, the little translator said in a low voice.
