Chapter 138
Get a fairly satisfactory loan and accept the invitation of Iron Bank Chief-In-Charge to finish the dinner. If it’s not too late, Maria will even take the money directly in the cloth Lafos purchased the necessary food, weapons and other materials, and then immediately returned to Westeros.
Of course, Iron Bank is the largest consortium of Song of Ice and Fire World. What needs to be purchased? Tell Chief-In-Charge, there will be a lot of goods to choose from Maria.
Borrow money and spend money, one-stop service!
In one day, the things that a few people have to do on this trip are basically completed.
If there is still something undecided... it is Hein Likai’s marriage contract with Arthur, and the method of making soap for mortgage.
Actually, as the princess, as the mother of Crown Prince Ryan, Maria's inner thoughts about Arthur are very complicated.
I know that the black-eyed boy has no ambition to become an emperor, but he is very capable!
Have extraordinary powers, one enemy a hundred, have extraordinary knowledge and talents, and invent items to create benefits!
Even Iron Bank, which is far across the Narrow Sea, is eager to cooperate!
If Ryan hadn't been born in Arthur first, the first succession would not even fall to him.
Only supported by military Aristocratic families such as House Arnold, the imperial concubine knows that his two sons who have been converted from bastard can't even compete with Stannis...
Press Analysis of existing information.
Prince Dragonstone led a rebellion and let the red robe female use bloodfiend to kill her relatives. He should have been sentenced to death!
But up to now, neither King Robert nor Hand of the King Eddard has settled his crimes. They only let him go north to guard Wall, saying that they will survive the Others crisis before retrial.
For the crime of rebellion and killing of relatives, Stannis was allowed the so-called "after-autumn settlement" because of the many Dragonstone nobles and followers of the Red God who supported him. What does Ryan supported by the nobility?
Maria, as a mother, has broken her heart for the stability of her son's future throne.
Fortunately, Arthur is now supporting Ryan's succession to the throne. When he goes back to facilitate his marriage with Hein Rikai, those nobles who are still waiting will definitely stay away.
Thinking, after a busy day, the tired princess returned to the hotel room, ready to go to sleep.
"Tuk-tuk"
The bright moon hung outside the window, all around. Because it was quiet at night, the princess who let the little maid go out after taking a shower under Vanessa's waiter to listen When the knock on the door suddenly frowned, I don't know who is looking for me so late.
"Is the supper delivered?"
Annie everyday all will do swordsmanship exercises, physical energy needs food supplement, after exercise, take a rest, then take a bath and eat supper Has become her habit.
However, after taking a shower, waiting in the room was a little impatient, and was about to go downstairs to inquire, but Annie saw the girl waiter in the hotel carrying food and knocking on the door of the room where the imperial concubine was staying:" It’s the midnight snack I called and brought it to me."
Maria has opened the door and is seeing the weird girl waiter in front of her.
As knight, responsible for protecting the safety of the imperial concubine, Annie would not let go of her vigilance and called out. The girl waiter with the food didn't even look at it, and suddenly realized something was wrong.
"Be careful, the princess!" Annie, who sensed that something was about to go wrong, rushed over, but the girl had already thrown away the dinner plate and took out a sharp blue dagger.
Born in the Aristocratic Family, a soldier who can become Robert’s mistress, often accompanies Big Fatty to hunting, and has been to the dangerous Dothraki Sea. Maria is not a weak female stream without the power of a chicken.
The door of the room, pushed up by her fiercely, just blocked the waitress who wanted to stab her with a dagger.
While the female assassin's arm was stuck by the door, Annie rushed to punch her out and knocked her out in the back of the head.
"Emperor, are you okay?"
Maria looked at the fallen waitress and shook her head with lingering fear: "It's okay, by the way, where is the guard?"
Heinlikai, who was in the same room with Annie, came out with a sword, handed it to Annie and said: "You protect the princess, I will call a guard over here."
Annie nodded : "Be careful."
Hearing the movement here, without having to find Heinlikai, Knight, who is responsible for protecting the safety of the imperial concubine, also ran over nervously at this time.
Heinlikai immediately discovered that the number was wrong: "Three people are missing."
A guard said: "It's Captain, he is responsible for guarding the safety of the imperial concubine during this time. "
"I want to meet people, died, then must see the corpse. Others follow me to check the hotel, first find the missing guards, leave half of them to protect the imperial concubine, and then let the hotel boss come and see the corpse I, also sent someone to inform Iron Bank that we were assassinated!"
As Heinlikai ordered, everyone moved immediately.
However, the girl brought the talents downstairs, and immediately raised a warning in her heart, aware of the danger.
From behind!
Swordsmanship is not superb, but she will not be weak as a knight.
Turn around with a sharp sword, the rear guard's abrupt sword and danger blocked it!
"Dare to betray us?"
They are all trusted by Ryan and House Arnold. It stands to reason that they are impossible to betray. You can see the familiar companion attacking Heinli. Kay, the knights swung their swords in anger.
Only a few people waved the longsword, and someone else betrayed him. The dagger was sent into the stomach of a knight, and then the longsword blocked and saved the traitor who had fallen into the siege.
"Damn!" As the two traitors violently kill, and their powerful swordsmanship, several knights are not opponents at all, and most of them fall in twos or twos.
Heinlikai is not good at swordsmanship and can only retreat in embarrassment.
At the same time, Annie, who was on guard outside Princess Maria’s room, was suddenly betrayed by her companions!
The cold glow flashes on the sword edge.
The light and shadow on the aisle suddenly rise, it is blood splashed, and the battle starts suddenly.
The extraordinary swordsmanship girl was caught off guard. She was slashed in the shoulder by the violent knight, but she still killed a traitor and the remaining three angry guards who were attacked and wounded. It's surrounded.
"Moon, why betray us? Carl, you are the younger brother, you killed him cruelly! Are you still not a human?!"
Listening to the anger of the guards He asked, the betrayal knight named Mu En was still expressionless and didn't mean to answer at all, seeing their eyes were extremely cold.
At this time, Annie remembered the mysterious assassin that Arthur had mentioned: "You are the faceless?!"
Moon, who was hearing this, finally had a trace on his face*| Emotions were revealed, but still did not speak.
The other guards understand that he is not the knight, but the rumored terrifying assassin pretending!
It's useless to know, the strength of this nameless man is too strong, a few guards stood side by side, the sword light flashed, but they all fell down!
"Annie!" With a sword, Heinlikai could not kill the traitor, but she brought a small crossbow with her, which could be killed in one shot within three meters, and cooperated with the guards to quickly get them back.
However, the three guards around her were all wounded. The small crossbow did not have a crossbow arrow, and rushed up with people. Two people were killed in the blink of an eye. They were really unsure about dealing with the traitors, but in fact they were nothing. The face of the assassin.
Annie gritted her teeth: "Let’s hold him, you go back to the room to get your bow and arrow!"
"Come right away!"
Behind the door, Maria takes I nervously listened to the movement outside with the crossbow, a few times of golden and iron humming, and thought of the sword in the body with a sharp weapon*|hmph, and then the armored guard fell to the ground.
The fast-moving Heinlikai took the crossbow out of the room, and raised his hand to shoot an arrow at the Faceless.
But hearing the vibration of the bowstring, the Faceless Man swung his sword calmly and immediately chopped off the sharp arrow. Then he abandoned Annie, who had been on several swords, and rushed towards Haiyin, who released the longbow and lifted the crossbow arrow. Li Kai.
"Don't even think about hurting Hein Likai!" Annie hurriedly swung her sword to catch up.
Fighting together many times, in the narrow aisle, she knows that she is easily injured by mistake, and she has also discussed how to deal with the enemy in this situation.
Calmly shoot the crossbow arrow at the assassin, regardless of whether he has made contributions or not, Heinlikai immediately turned around and ran, and handed her back to Annie.
"die for me!"
With tacit cooperation, the Faceless One did not chase Shanghai Yinlikai, Annie finally injured this powerful killer and chopped his right hamstring tendon Off.
The rapier turned again, and fiercely scratched his back and arms, almost piercing the heart with a sword.
Hearing the footsteps stop and knowing that Annie was dragging the Faceless, Heinlikai immediately turned her bow and quickly released the sharp arrow in the quiver.
"pu pu"
The sharp feather arrow hit the back of the Faceless. It was originally aimed at the vital points, but didn't expect this guy to have long eyes in the back of his head. Dodge cleverly.
Annie struggled to be injured and dragged him to death. Seeing that he was caught in a hard fight, the Faceless Man suddenly slammed open the door next to him, but for some reason he jumped out of the window and escaped, disappearing into the night. .
Looking at Annie, who was covered in blood and received more than a dozen swords, Heinlikai quickly helped her and asked the princess to open the door: "It's not safe here, let's leave now!"
"Okay, shall we go back to the boat?" Knight and the guard died*|Light, Maria didn't dare to stay in the hotel for a moment, so she took her things and left.
Hein Likai: "No, let's go to Iron Bank!"
