Ice and Fire: Reign of the Dragon

Chapter 187: Lingol's Expedition (Part 9) Meeting an acquaintance again

Ringol and his party did not stay in the Stormlands for too long. They did not even stay in a castle or an inn in the market town. They crossed the Stormlands and entered the Royal Forest of the King's Territory.

The fertile land gradually disappeared, and the roads gradually became muddy and narrow. Only the King's Road remained wide, but the mud of rotting leaves and the mud after the rainstorm could still be seen. The villages also gradually became scarce.

In the end, all civilization disappeared in front of this large forest in the south of King's Landing. Except for the King's Road that runs through the Royal Forest, Ringol and his party rarely saw people.

This forest is the private hunting forest of King Targaryen, but Aegon is not as keen on hunting as his grandfather and great uncle Viserys I. Little Viserys is now busy making children and serving as an assistant to the current King's Hand. They have no time to hunt.

So the Royal Forest has rarely seen the grand scene of the king's hunting in recent years.

"Is this the Royal Forest?" Lei Geng looked around curiously at this dark green world. The ancient trees were like old men, with wrinkles on their faces. The green leaves were the old man's long hair, the gnarled roots were the old man's long beard, and mosses covered the roots of every tree. Ella Rion picked non-toxic mushrooms to enjoy when setting up camp. As soon as Lingol entered the Royal Forest, he shot a pheasant and two rabbits.

At least they had fresh meat to eat when they rested today.

"That's all." Lei Geng said a little disappointed.

"Why?" After thinking along the way, Lingol's temper changed a lot. He would even occasionally joke with his two companions, and he no longer minded Lei Geng's irreverent play and many behaviors that seemed awkward in the past.

For example, hunting in the Royal Forest.

In short, although Lingol now tells himself not to go too far, he never shows mercy when hunting.

"I thought the King's Royal Forest would be very big." Lei Geng looked around. "But I didn't expect it to be as ancient and huge as the rainforests in Stormlands. Hum, it's about the same as our forests."

"Do you think all the wood in King's Landing is provided by Stormlands?" Ringol couldn't help laughing, then he said with a straight face.

They didn't notice the tiny sounds in the dense forest.

Alarion on the side suddenly straightened up and moved his ears.

"Something's wrong!"

Before he finished speaking, a crossbow arrow suddenly cut through the almost dark green air in the forest and rushed straight towards Ringol.

Boom.

Almost without a moment of hesitation, Regen's horse rushed to Ringol's side. The young man twisted his waist and the crossbow arrow nailed above the shield on his back.

Almost, this shield could not defend.

"Seven layers of hell." The crooked crossbowman in the forest spat. They were members of the Green Brotherhood, and they were just recently conquered by the new King's Hand, Earl Bal Ammon. With the help of the villages in the Royal Forest that avoided the heavy taxes of the lord, the Green Brotherhood, which had more than 300 people, was reduced to only a dozen guys after this battle.

However, their leader "Green" Robin survived. This guy who loved to wear green clothes was once a knight, but when the blood dragon danced wildly, he participated in the riot in King's Landing. Although he survived the dragon flame in the end, he was still afraid of the revenge of the Targaryen family, so he took the initiative to give up the house in King's Landing and ran to the Royal Forest to become a robber who robbed the passing caravans.

However, this Robin also had some principles. He recognized the flags of those great nobles and did not rob them, but specialized in robbing the caravans of ordinary merchants.

Unfortunately, although the current King Aegon followed the rules, he was not a foolish and incompetent person. On the contrary, the only reason he followed the rules was that Longzel's policy was effective.

What he needed to do was to maintain the operation of the policy that had already achieved great results, and Robin's Green Brotherhood, a cancer, was naturally the first target to be eradicated.

In fact, he had been eradicated several times, so that when Longzier was in power, the entire Green Brotherhood was extremely well-behaved, and that was also the period when the traffic in the King's Forest was the smoothest. Unfortunately, after Longzier left King's Landing, Robin felt that no one could attack him anymore, so he led the Brotherhood to make a comeback, but unfortunately he ran into a tough guy again this time.

Lord Balemon was definitely not qualified to be the Hand of the King, but he was honest and wise enough. In short, he followed the rules and was more stubborn.

So Robin was in trouble.

Looking at the three young men who were ready in the blink of an eye, Robin hammered his thigh in annoyance.

"Sir, we have no crossbows." The crossbowman said angrily. After they were dispersed, they had been hiding from the gold cloaks and the white cloaks everywhere-the latter was the King's Guard formed by Viserys, composed of the servants who served the King's Guard in the White Sword Tower. The army was already being prepared during Daemon's regency, and Longzier gave them financial and equipment support when he was in power. But for some reason, this army of 300 people was not officially formed until Longzel left, and was led by the new captain of the Kingsguard, Sir Erik Cargall.

So now they don't even have extra crossbows.

"Damn, just three kids, what are you afraid of." Robin looked at the three boys' horses, weapons, and shields with some greed. "It's not like we haven't killed noble kids before, go ahead."

"Haha, little brats, your dad is here!" A little giant in simple armor ran out of the forest, waving a long-handled battle axe, followed by other members of the Green Brotherhood.

The remnants of the Green Brotherhood rushed up with a howl.

Then they saw the young Stranger.

Even the strongest warrior of the Green Brotherhood, the "Immortal" Joe, who was nearly seven feet tall, could not withstand Alerion's hammer.

The little giant was knocked down by the oncoming warhorse as soon as he rushed over, and Alerion's hammer then piled on his head.

His brain burst, but the bandits next to him had no time to panic or run away.

Because the other two had already attacked.

It was not until Ringol looked at his sword in a strange way, but threw Robin's remaining head to the ground without even looking at it. These bandits who had already met the Stranger realized that they had offended someone they shouldn't have offended.

And.

Seven layers of hell, Robin, you've cheated us.

They have horses, war horses!

In the shadows on the side, "Hyena" Kane slowly retracted the long sword in his hand.

He looked at the three boys with some surprise.

I didn't expect that these three boys I met in the Storm Land were really not afraid of killing people at all.

They looked very skilled.

Who are they?
