Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely - Chapter 1217 - 858: Divine Right of Kings_2

Chapter 1217: Chapter 858: Divine Right of Kings_2

Since the Lannister Family can poison Jon Alyn, they can actually threaten King Robert as well, since Queen Cersei and Jam, one of the Royal Forest Iron Guard, are part of the Lannister Family.

They are all people who can be in close contact with him!

“We cannot neglect the Desolation Wall, it is our duty, but I cannot just watch Robert fall into the pit. He will come to me, which means that there aren’t many people around him whom he can trust…”

Ed Stark also had his own perspective in mind.

The King personally came to invite him to be the Hand of the King, which actually showed his respect for him.

In the end, Ed decided to wait at Winterfell for King Robert to visit, and make clear the situation at the Desolation Wall face-to-face…

——

“Huff~ Huff~”

Bran Stark opened his eyes, sat up on the bed, and began to breathe heavily.

As Ed’s second son, Bran, who was just ten years old, would often have some strange dreams. Previously, he dreamed of a raven with three eyes appearing before him and constantly saying something.

“What is this all about…”

After all, he’s still just a ten-year-old kid; although the dream contained various omens and images, he completely couldn’t understand them.

He only knew that the three-eyed raven seemed very eager to tell him something.

“It seems like, something is coming…”

And at this moment, Bran’s brother, Robb, the eldest son of the Stark family, burst into his room.

“Hey hey, why aren’t you up yet? Hurry up and get ready, we have to go together to welcome the King’s entourage in a bit, as we agreed earlier.”

“Oh, coming.”

“These days we have guests, so no one will be with you to practice archery.”

Robb said teasingly.

Previously, Bran’s hit rate during archery practice was terrible, and he was always teased by his brothers.

Though he is Ed’s second son, aside from Robb, his direct older brother, he also has a half-brother named Jon Snow, and a foster brother, Shaun Greyjoy, sent as a hostage.

Being only ten, Bran is still just a little brother.

“I can practice on my own; I will definitely become a great knight.”

Bran cried out swiftly, and then followed his brother out the door.

He then thought of his previous dream, and, without any schemes, Bran straightforwardly asked Robb.

“Aha, indeed it’s quite a prophetic dream, the King is arriving soon, doesn’t that just prove it?”

The King personally coming to the territory to invite Ed to become the Hand of the King is definitely an honor for the lord.

Even though Ed and Robert have a good relationship, they still gather the whole family with utmost ceremony to wait for Robert’s arrival.

Under the escort of the King’s Imperial Guards, surrounded by several Royal Forest Iron Guards, Robert entered Winterfell and approached Ed.

The two hadn’t seen each other for years; Robert first stared at Ed for a while, then smiled.

“You’ve put on weight.”

“You dare to speak of me.”

Ed pointed at his belly, then the two burst into laughter and hugged each other.

The unfamiliarity of not seeing each other for years seemed to disappear instantly.

The harmony between the main characters also enlivened the atmosphere.

However, at this moment, Lu Wen, Maester of Winterfell, came rushing over with a raven in a hurry.

Ignoring etiquette even on such an important occasion shows the gravity of the situation.

Robert and Ed said nothing much, with Ed, the lord here, speaking.

“Maester Lu Wen, what is so urgent? Is there a problem at the Desolation Wall?”

Due to the prior reminder from his brother, Ed instinctively thought of this.

Robert beside him also furrowed his brows and said.

“The Desolation Wall? Did something happen there?”

“No! Not the Desolation Wall, it’s King’s Landing, King’s Landing has been captured!”

Lu Wen’s words immediately shocked everyone present.

What did we just hear? King’s Landing has been captured?

“Hand it to me!”

Robert quickly grabbed the raven’s message, seeing the mark of the secret message.

Dragons? Flying steel giants?

What madness is this!

Though Robert didn’t know what the steel giants were, he recognized the dragons!

He even knew that remnants of the Targaryen family escaped to the Essos Continent, yet he hadn’t expected dragons to come out again so soon!

Next to him, Ed, and Queen Cersei all turned pale.

Regardless, in facing remnants of the Targaryen family, the positions of the wolf, stag, and lion families are united.

“Damn it!”

Robert seemed very angry, yet slightly powerless.

If it were other rebels, even if they somehow captured King’s Landing, it wouldn’t be a major issue. The lords of each domain and their vassals still support him, and they easily could assemble allied forces to take it back!

He has ruled for so many years, gaining this legitimacy and prestige.

However, if it were members of the Targaryen family, arriving with dragons, then all his advantages would vanish.

“Why, why are there dragons appearing…”

But at this moment, a Dragon’s Chant was faintly heard from the sky.

Immediately drawing everyone’s attention nearby.

Roar~

Three flying Giant Dragons appeared over Winterfell’s skies, starting to circle continuously.
