NOVEL NEXT Chapter 181 Dragon Egg
"Um" Rohr raised his eyebrows, "The Earl hasn't gotten up yet. Yesterday's events have made him too tired. Of course," he said deliberately, "If His Majesty needs it, I will wake him up immediately."
"No!" Daenerys blurted out, and then she realized her gaffe. After showing an awkward smile, she quickly returned to seriousness, "I'm not in a hurry. Since the earl is very tired, let him have a good rest. Well, wait until he wakes up and ask him to come to me."
"As you wish, Your Majesty." Roll responded, and then went to get food for Dany.
Breakfast was specially prepared for her with fine bread and uniform fish soup. Compared with the luxurious banquet in Illyrio's mansion, it was simply unpalatable. However, Daenerys was not too picky and just ate little by little. Finished the food.
Although she procrastinated in the restaurant for a long time, she still couldn't wait for Ian's arrival until the end.
Helpless, she could only return to the deck sadly, intending to take in the sea breeze and get some fresh air, but as soon as she reached the stairs, she saw Ian and Celia walking down the stairs together.
"Lord Idairi." Daenerys greeted first, "Lady Celia."
"Your Majesty." Ian saluted immediately.
"Your Majesty." Celia also saluted immediately.
"This is what you are doing?"
"I just met Priest Celia in the corridor and asked her some questions about High Valyrian. I plan to learn this language in detail from her later," Ian explained with a smile. .
"I can teach you too." Daenerys said subconsciously.
"Your Majesty?" Ian pretended to have a puzzled expression, and at the same time cursed in his heart, no, you can't, I will learn from you to seal the book.
"No," Dany was embarrassed again and lowered her head to explain, "I just want to say that I am also proficient in High Valyrian. If you have any questions, Lord Darry, you can ask me."
"Compared to that," Ian said, not wanting to get entangled with her on the issue of learning a foreign language, "I found something in Illyrio's gift that I think you might like."
"What is it?" Daenerys' attention was immediately attracted.
"Come with me." Ian waved, and then walked down the stairs with Daenerys and Celia. Soon they came to a small room guarded by two knights.
Seeing Ian's arrival, the guard opened the door to the room. Since there were no windows in the storage room in the belly of the ship, a guard took the initiative to enter and lit the oil lamp inside with a torch before pushing it out.
Ian walked into the room and felt a faint musty smell coming to his nose.
Enduring the smell, Ian walked to the wall and took out a cedar box from among the many boxes. Earlier he had taken the dragon egg out of the system backpack and put it into this box.
The other nearly ten boxes contained gold and jewelry worth more than 70,000 gold dragons. This was after Rolle and the others only ransacked a treasure house and some rooms in Illyrio, and did not take away any large items. case of harvest.
If Rohr and the others had been given an extra half day to search carefully, or if they had moved the large goods without worrying about being blocked on the road, maybe the thief's advanced achievement, Ian, would have been completed directly.
Now was not the time to think about meaningless things. Ian stopped fantasizing, placed the box on the ground in front of Dany, and opened it.
"Wow!" Daenerys exclaimed immediately. In her opinion, the huge dragon egg was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen in her life.
"This is a dragon egg from the shadow land east of Asshai." Ian directly relayed Illyrio's description of the dragon egg. "It has been fossilized for thousands of years, but it is still beautiful and beautiful."
Although it is believed that these three eggs are the three eggs that Alyssa Farman stole from Rhaena Targaryen in 54 AC and later sold to the Sea King of Braavos. But Ian feels that just over 200 years may not be enough time for dragon eggs to become fossils.
Of course, it is also possible that once the dragon egg loses the blessing of some kind of magical power, it will soon turn into stone, but that statement needs to be further verified by Ian in the future.
"You are of true dragon blood, so I think you will like them." He continued.
Dany didn't answer Ian, because at this moment, her whole body was attracted to the three dragon eggs.
One dragon egg is dark green with many bronze spots, one is light milky white with golden stripes, and the last one is black, like a midnight ocean, but with vibrant dark red waves and whirlpools.
They were so richly textured and colorful that at first sight Dany thought their shells were bright gems.
She held a dragon egg in her hands and looked at it carefully. She thought it looked like fine ceramics, enamel, or blown glass, but the egg was much heavier than them, weighing like a solid stone.
There were tiny scales on the surface of the eggshell. She played with the dragon egg, and the light from the oil lamp passed through her fingers and shone on the egg, making it shine with a reflective luster like polished light.
Suddenly, Daenerys' heart palpitated. She raised her head, only to find that the egg in her hand was gone. She looked around in panic, but could not see Ian.
Everything was shrouded in darkness, and only the area in front of her was under a faint light. Once again, she heard the sound of burning flames, so she raised her head to look at the top of her head - the source of the sound. , a pillar of fire was sprayed into the sky and she was in a trance.
Then the pillar of fire disappeared, and the light around her also disappeared. The last thing left in her field of vision was the giant black shadow looking down at her just before the light disappeared.
It was a dragon, she knew.
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty? Dany?" Ian's shout pulled her out of her hallucination, and she realized that she was staring blankly at the torch in Ian's hand.
"What happened to you just now?" Ian asked while wiping the sweat on Danni's forehead with a handkerchief, "Is it too hot in the cabin? Why are you sweating so much all of a sudden?"
"Yeah, I'm a little hot," Daenerys said, following the rationale, before she became aware of the movement of Ian's hands.
This is transgression! I am your queen! She shouted in her heart, you shouldn't treat me like a child!
But how should he get along with me? Like with Viserys? Respectfully and cautiously? No no no! When Dani thought of that scene, she felt something bad in her heart. It was too bad and she couldn't accept it.
Until the movement of Ian's hand ended, Dani was still struggling with the question of whether to stop him.
"Your Majesty, did you just see something? Was it a dragon?" At this moment, Celia suddenly interrupted Daenerys' thinking.
"How do you know?" The little queen was startled.
Because that's what I asked you to see, "Because I also saw it," Celia smiled, "That was the revelation from the Lord of Light. He told me that you will bring the dragon back to the world through these eggs."
Dany quickly looked back at the dragon eggs. In an instant, thousands of blood-red sparks flashed before her eyes. She blinked, but they were all gone.
"Stones," Daenerys whispered, "are just rocks."
The dragon race has long been extinct. Viserys once told her that when the end came to Valyria and the Land of Eversummer, magic also became extinct in the west. The swords blessed by enchantments, the wind singers who predicted the weather, and the dragons all disappeared. It cannot be undone.
The Targaryens were the only dragon king family to escape the apocalypse. With their dragons, they conquered the entire Westeros. However, the last dragon of House Targaryen died about a century and a half ago, during the reign of Aegon III, and he was therefore known as the "Dragon Bane".
"These are just stones." Daenerys repeated, but she still couldn't help but stretched out her hand to the dragon eggs. There seemed to be something in these stones that was attracting her.
