Chapter 304: The Unsullied Arrival
A desolate horn sounded from the port of Pantos.
thump—
At the same time, a melodious giant bell rang.
wow...
Huge warships hung three-headed dragon flags, splitting the waves that were rushing against the trestle, and docked at the port of Pantos in order, making a dull and huge sound.
On the deck of the warship, a soldier with bright armor and bright armor stood here holding a spear and a round shield. Their expressions were serious and meticulous, like ruthless killing machines.
soon.
wow-
The iron rope made a sound, the warship was anchored in position, the people on the port and the people on the ship exchanged loudly, and then the gangway on the ship was lowered.
A fat man in a khaki robe with gorgeous jewelry rings on his hands stepped off the battleship.
He was the finance minister of the new dynasty.
Illyrio, who traveled all the way to Astapor to buy the Unsullied, has returned.
He led Viserys to sack the vast wealth of Governor Pentos's family to Slaver's Bay, and brought back five thousand elite Unsullied warriors for him.
It took him almost a year to go without a word, and Viserys even thought that Illyrio had lost contact.
But today he finally returned.
As an elite force, the number of 5,000 Unsullied is already extremely large, and the combat effectiveness is even more amazing.
Illyrio's eloquence was good, and he negotiated with Viserys' wealth, eventually buying out almost all the Unsullied in Astapor.
You must know that there are only 8,000 qualified Unsullied people in Astapor, and the rest are still half-finished products that have not been trained.
Astapor pays great attention to the quality of goods, and the Unsullied who are not trained will never be sold as finished products.
That would only affect the reputation of the Unsullied and Astapor's goodwill.
The Unsullied Legion of 5,000 warriors stayed in the port, and Illyrio, who had just returned to Pantos after completing the mission, boarded the carriage and came to the palace at the top of the Nine Towers.
"Lord Morpatis."
The servants along the way saluted him.
And Illyrio ignored it. He hurriedly came to see Viserys and asked about the arrangement of the next five thousand Unsullied.
"Is this the Harpy?"
Viserys played with a baton passed to him by Illyrio, and it was said that the Unsullied would unconditionally carry out the orders of those holding the baton.
Even attacking their former masters.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
And the fat Illyrio stood in front of Viserys' desk and said respectfully.
This long trip had no effect other than making his skin a little darker from the prolonged exposure.
He didn't even lose weight because of it, and it seemed that no matter where he went, Illyrio didn't forget to enjoy it.
"Brick and blood made Astapor, and brick and blood made her people."
"Astapor was once a colony of the Kingdom of Gugis. The symbol of the Kingdom of Gugis is this monster with a woman's body and bat wings on its arms."
"Then the kingdom of Gugis was destroyed by the Valyrian Freehold about 5,000 years ago, and today Astapor, Yunkai and Meereen are all cities founded by the survivors of the Gugis Empire. "
Illyrio explained that Slaver's Bay was built on the ruins of the Kingdom of Gith, and has now become the central hub of the world's slave trade.
"How are you going to arrange these Unsullied warriors?"
Then Illyrio asked.
If the Unsullied are indeed a bit too extravagant to defend the city, these elite warriors should not just be used for these simple tasks.
However, there is no war in the kingdom now, and the Unsullied have no other good place to go except to stay in the city, and the Unsullied will not rob and rape, but it is the best choice to maintain the city's defense.
"Leave them in Pentos for now."
Viserys pondered for a moment before speaking.
If a war is about to start, they will be transferred to join the war. For Pantos, it is still mainly to recuperate. The previous wars were too frequent, and Viserys still wanted the soldiers to calm down and get enough rest.
Waiting quietly for the battle between the Seven Nations led by Robert and the White Walkers.
afternoon.
Viserys inspected the troops of the Unsullied in the grandest plaza in the city of Pentos, on a white horse.
One after another, the Unsullied warriors stood motionless in the cold wind under the sun, holding spears and round shields with their chests raised.
"This is the king of the Andals, the Loyna and the ancestors, the legitimate ruler of the Seven Kingdoms and the guardian of the whole world, the lord of Andalos, the guardian of Pantos, the seven gods crowned 'True Dragon' Viserys His Majesty Targaryen III."
Standing beside Viserys, the high-voiced guard recited aloud, and the surroundings were silent, and the voice spread far away.
huh~
A gust of cold wind blows.
The five thousand Unsullied warriors below did not make a sound, their faces under the spiked helmets were firm, their eyes were dead, and Viserys' long title and brilliant light could not make them change any color.
"from now on!"
"He is your king!"
Seeing this scene, the guard swallowed another mouthful of spit, and then continued to shout loudly, trying to make all the Unsullied hear.
However, the eyes of the Unsullied were locked on the harpy baton hanging from the silver-blond long-haired young man's waist.
They did not submit to Viserys because he was some kind of king, some kind of guardian, some kind of lord of dragons.
It was because of the harpy baton hanging from his waist, which was equivalent to a tiger rune commanding the Unsullied.
The most important aspect of the "training" the Unsullied receive, even more important than their combat skills, is...
obey.
Viserys rode on a snow-white warhorse with the harpy's baton hanging from his waist.
Quietly examining the Unsullied Legion lined up in front of him, a formidable pressure came upon him.
This is the visual and psychological oppression brought about by the uniformity of 5,000 people.
"It's terrifying."
"Everything about the Unsullied is in the service of obedience."
Viserys said silently in his heart.
Including cutting out their male characteristics, allowing them to focus on combat and no other desires. Erase their personalities, emotions, ego and even humanity.
After obtaining the spiked helmets of the Unsullied, they must wear masks to the slave market, buy a newborn, kill the baby in the presence of its mother, and pay the newborn's slave owner for his loss.
The guards around Viserys finished all their words, while the Unsullied below remained motionless and did not respond in the slightest.
Viserys' bodyguard looked slightly embarrassed and turned to look at his king.
"His Majesty."
"This"
