#174 - Chapter 20: Dan Condensation
Beckett immediately ran to the door upon hearing this, looked outside, and then closed the door tightly. Only then did he return and say, "Why do you say that? We haven't found any indication of it!"
Liu Yuan: "This matter is a secret. My people investigated Jon Arryn's true cause of death. The old guy was investigating Robert's bastards, and then he suddenly died of illness. My people continued to investigate along this line and discovered that Cersei's three children are not Robert's, but the product of her affair with Jaime."
Beckett was surprised: "So explosive? King Robert hasn't noticed for so many years." He used to have a good relationship with Jaime and often messed around with him in King's Landing, considering him a drinking buddy.
Liu Yuan continued, "The interesting thing is yet to come; the Lannisters were not the ones who poisoned him."
Adrian was quite calm: "This means that the person behind the scenes will definitely expose the truth. Robert will not tolerate this; it is no longer a matter of succession to the throne. As long as Tywin wants to save their lives, the Westerlands will definitely send troops. Who do you think will win?"
Liu Yuan: "Who wins is not important, as long as we are the last ones standing. Stark's trip south this time will definitely make the situation more chaotic. So, while the situation is still stable, temporarily withdraw the family's assets. I left this time because I didn't want to get involved in trouble, and Setegar should not take sides casually either."
Adrian and Beckett exchanged glances and said, "Okay, I believe you. Except for the necessary personnel, I will gradually withdraw the remaining assets and manpower. We should also start hoarding some important supplies now."
Liu Yuan: "What you really need to pay attention to is the one in the south. Stannis is not an easy person to talk to." The two nodded in agreement. Strictly speaking, House Setegar belongs to the Dragonstone lineage. However, the current situation has changed somewhat. Earl Adrian accepted the king's conferment and clarified the legal rule over the Claw Isle. The family's power has surged and is different from the usurper's situation during the war; it is no longer something that anyone can knead.
Liu Yuan stayed at the Blue Crab Castle for three days and took the White Tiger ship to Pentos. As expected, the Narrow Sea was full of wind and waves, and Rickon got seasick, the little guy vomited so badly that he was dizzy.
The White Tiger ship slowly sailed into the port. Today's Pentos is even more prosperous. Another city was built in the southeast, and a large number of textile workshops were set up inside. According to the agreement, the Legion can use the docks for free in non-profit situations.
The White Tiger ship and the Fuchuan ship are unique to Liu Yuan's forces and are highly recognizable in Pentos. Soon, the personnel stationed at the port came to inquire because this was an unscheduled ship. When Liu Yuan appeared, they all knelt down. His prestige in Pentos even exceeds that of the Governor and the Prince; nearly half of the people's livelihoods are related to him, and he can be called their provider.
The governors in the city quickly received the news and took sedan chairs to greet him at the south gate. Rickon kept looking around; everything here was new to him.
Viserys naturally received the news as well. This time he was quite reserved, waiting in the mansion. Unlike before, Viserys has become more confident. He thought he had received Liu Yuan's promise (self-brainwashing), and with guards and start-up funds in hand, he also recruited many wandering warriors.
After marrying Daenerys to Drogo, he also left him a large amount of wealth. Now his identity is different; some wealthy businessmen will come to visit and send valuable gifts.
He is no longer the penniless beggar prince in the original drama, so he did not follow the Dothraki to Vaes Dothrak. Instead, he stayed in Pentos to enjoy himself. More importantly, he found the alliance agreement once signed with Dorne from the knight's relics.
So, Viserys couldn't wait to contact Liu Yuan, intending to officially show his cards. He felt that he had so much power that it was enough to counterattack Westeros. But he was disappointed; Liu Yuan did not come to see him. He did not attend the governors' banquet, did not even enter the city, and left directly under the **** of a large group of cavalry.
In fact, Liu Yuan originally planned to deal with Viserys, but an unexpected situation occurred.
--He formed his Golden Core!
On the night of leaving Blue Crab Castle, Liu Yuan felt his whole body's energy surge. He pulled Nina and the other girls into the bedroom and tossed around all night, but his energy still did not calm down. Gradually, in the Tanzhong acupoint, Quchi acupoint, and Zhongwan acupoint, three vortexes of energy formed.
It almost drained all of his energy, making him feel weak all over. In contrast, his attribute panel showed:
Name: Liu Yuan (Galon Morningstar)
Race: Human (Sub-Dragon Bloodline)
Identity: Lord (Tier 3 Transcendent)
Age: 23/647
Status: Forming Core...
Strength: 80
Agility: 80
Constitution: 80
Intelligence: 80
Spirit: 80
Command: 80
Integrated Perception: 80
Hidden Attributes:
Luck: 75
Willpower: ???
Soul Strength: ???
Body Strength: ???
Abnormal Status Resistance: ???
Special Attributes:
〖Evil Purging〗Passive Talent; 〖Earth Affinity〗Passive; 〖Water Rhythm〗Passive; 〖Fire Element Affinity〗Passive; 〖Life Aura〗Passive.
His attribute values have all reached the pinnacle of Tier 3 creatures. But this Core Formation state was something he had never encountered in his previous life.
He stayed in the Republic of China world for sixty years, and even with the system's blessing, he did not trigger this state. Liu Yuan has read many novels in his previous life and should have guessed that if referring to the cultivation system, the fourth tier corresponds to the Golden Core stage cultivators.
The rest is easy to understand; tier 1 and below represent mortals, tier 2 corresponds to the Qi Refining stage, and tier 3 corresponds to the Foundation Establishment stage. He should currently be at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, using his own energy to form the core, and should be entering the Dao through martial arts via National Arts.
The most important thing to do is to find a secluded place to retreat. If he can break through on his own, he doesn't have to go looking for divine creatures anymore.
So, he was not in the mood to pay attention to the dignitaries of Pentos, let alone the clown-like Viserys. He went directly to Harold under the **** of cavalry and directly called Misda. He is already one of the seven major commanders under Liu Yuan, in charge of more than half of the cavalry force, as well as the reserve training tasks of the cavalry corps.
The annual sweeping operation has begun again. The Legion organizes cavalry units every year to enter the edge of the Dothraki Sea to sweep those small tribes.
Liu Yuan directly threw Rickon to Misda, asking him to take good care of the child and gain more experience. Then he hid in the mountains of the Velvet Hills.
Near the source of the Little Rhoyne River, there is a towering peak. This place is more than four thousand five hundred meters above sea level, the top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round, and it is surrounded by cliffs.
Leviathan flapped its huge wings, blowing away the nearby snow. Seeing it open its big mouth, a blazing flame spewed out, burning the original cave on the mountain wall even larger, and the rocks on the cave wall also showed signs of melting, but they were quickly cooled by the snow water.
Liu Yuan was very satisfied with this place after coming down. He put Leviathan into the space. After making some arrangements outside, he entered the cave for the final breakthrough.
