The Shadow Passage connects all worlds, including Neverland, and it can be opened at any time, and there are no requirements for the number of people or people it can carry, except that the turbulence of the inner world invades the worlds from time to time, speeding up or slowing down the flow of time.
So when Yi Huan's figure flickered slightly, he had returned to the country of Oz.
Not in a laboratory, but on a barren plain.
The deadly and numerous pterodactyls hovered over the wilderness, emitting a crisp and hoarse long roar, the afterglow of the setting sun was enveloping the world, and there was no trace of human population in the light of the setting sun, only the traces of the building left after artificial construction, as if the ruins were still in the wilderness.
Animals can occasionally be seen coming out to feed, but there is no sign of human activity anymore.
After the war, the country of Oz was like a dead giant, without breath and without any civilization, like a natural island that had returned to the primitive, wrapped in a magical ocean of mooring cycles.
Yi Huan had seen too much of this scene, and it was already boring, so he stood there for a while, then turned and walked back.
There was a sudden shaking in the air, and then it swallowed him up, and Yi Huan had already entered the range of the temporary foundation of the Oz country, and it was hidden in this wilderness, and it was faintly obscured by Yi Huan's magic.
The glory of the Magic Empire is gone, and Yi Huan doesn't need to hide himself too carefully.
It is true that there are some extremely powerful intelligent creatures in this land of Oz, but since they are intelligent creatures, it means that they will not wander around or attack here for no reason.
And those ordinary beasts and dinosaurs will naturally be driven away by the magic of Yi Huan. Unconsciously stay away from here, and you won't get close to this wilderness at all.
The wilderness was calm again, becoming the same as the plains around it, as if the hustle and bustle had never been there.
The group of pterosaurs in the distance didn't notice this place at all, and even if they did, they probably just wondered why there was no prey in this plain.
And their simple-minded minds quickly put this doubt behind them. After a burst of swooping and circling falls, the pterodactyl swarm let out a cheerful and crisp chirp.
That means another prey has been caught.
Soon, they will be able to enjoy the vague and fresh feast of flesh......
At the same time, in the medieval continent of Westeros, which is not much more advanced than the original magical ruins of Oz, a war called the Return of the True Dragon is in full swing.
Of course, no one except Daenerys, the initiator of this war, thought that Daenerys was a real dragon, and even if this obscured monster had come to the skies above their castle and city, they still wouldn't think so.
The reason is simple. That is, Daenerys's real body is really terrifying, or ugly, weird, and curious, but in any case, it is different from the real dragon recorded by scholars from generation to generation.
The era of the Targaryen dynasty has just passed, and the true dragons may have long since disappeared, but the terrifying figures of these creatures are still deeply imprinted in people's hearts.
Plesiosaur head. They have huge wings and claws on their backs, and they can spit fire from their mouths. Soaring through the sky, it is the biggest destroyer of all fortified walls.
Instead of the so-called, nine-headed head, extremely ugly in appearance, each head would not even be a creature with a neck that would not even recognize the organ of this appearance as a head.
Say she's a monster. I'm afraid it's more appropriate.
But no one would be stupid enough to say this, they all hid it deep in their hearts, and then surrendered to Daenerys, to her immense power and unrivaled magic.
for those who do not submit are dead.
Tyrion isn't a soft-hearted guy. Maybe he's gone, maybe he's gone, he's gone, he's lost everything, but Tyrion is still Tyrion, the little demon who didn't get much help from the Lannisters in King's Landing.
He now has a stronger backer, direct trust with Daenerys and Yi Huan, and no one dares to disobey him.
In terms of force, no one dares to underestimate the terrifying power contained beneath Daenerys' seemingly delicate body, and in the political affairs that Tyrion is in charge of, the title of King's Landing Little Devil is not for nothing, and no one has yet wrestled with him.
At this time, Tyrion was under the lit oil lamp, and took over several cities in the Dragonstone realm that Daenerys had just conquered during the day.
Daenerys was strong enough to be strong, but undermanned, and the nobles did submit to her, but Tyrion did not dare to use their men.
It was simply a surrender of the chassis, and in the end it was very likely that Daenerys would dominate the Seven Kingdoms, but the only place where the will could be thoroughly instilled was King's Landing, and the rest of the places were superficially subservient to her, but in fact they were still under the control of the major nobles.
It's just that the problem of manpower shortage can't be solved by discovering it, and even Daenerys can't help it.
Maybe it's okay to let Stark and Daenerys attack the city, but it's unlikely that they'll manage the territory.
Over the course of this time, Tyrion had unearthed only a handful of usable men, not even a hundred, and one of the guys he was most satisfied with was called Daniel, who was very smart, but Tyrion didn't feel like himself at all, because no one would ever understand the life of a dwarf.
But these manpower is a drop in the bucket for Daenerys's rapidly expanding territory, and now Tyrion still needs to solve big and small things by himself, he is busy from morning to late at night every day, even more tired than Daenerys and others who are on the battlefield.
The light of the fire shook as a reminder that it was late at night, and that the bitter winter had gradually reached a low temperature that could freeze people to death, and the soldiers added a few more braziers to Tyrion's tent, but they still couldn't dispel the cold of winter.
Jaime didn't know where he had gone, he was still not used to running armies and government affairs, preferring instead to be a warrior.
However, his arrogant psychology also made him look down on being a small soldier, but fortunately, the magical metal arm that Yi Huan gave him at that time brought him great strength, so that he was no longer the swordsman with the broken arm, but a powerful knight.
He rubbed his wrinkled brow. Tyrion sank ******** again into the information that had been delivered from the front.
Nothing particularly strange that most of the cities were either broken into by Daenerys brute force or wisely surrendered to her powerful force.
And no matter which one it is, it will not be stupid to make small moves on the surface one by one, and there are indeed some strange guys who are active in the shadows, but those are spies from all sides. There were even the Facelesss, and Tyrion didn't have the energy to deal with them, and they clearly didn't intend to cause trouble.
At this moment, Tyrion suddenly admired Varys, the guy who had been smiling was indeed very powerful, able to keep so many secrets, and withstand so much information.
I heard that he is still alive, but he is no longer human.
I don't know what will happen to him in the future, but I hope he can get lucky, Tyrion smiled wryly. Suddenly I felt that this world was a little strange to me, real dragons, monsters, those wizards.
Who knew what else was hidden in this world, everything seemed to be beyond Tyrion's control, and some of it he had never even heard of.
He loved it.
Suddenly, a piece of information catches Tyrion's attention. It was news from the front, and it was noticed that there was often a group of knights leaving every once in a while.
There were also many prisoners of war and death row prisoners who left with them. In the most recent case, some civilians were even taken away by them, and some suspected that they were in contact with other nobles.
Tyrion sneered, there should be no nobleman who is so afraid of death, almost any sane person should see that Daenerys's momentum of sweeping the Seven Kingdoms is unstoppable, this is from the unrivaled crushing of strength.
Of course, there are certainly people who take risks. There was never a shortage of such people, but whatever they were, they would be crushed under the dragon power that Daenerys was rolling into.
These knights can't leave the team without permission, not to mention that they also took the population, which is the most valuable resource in this era. Even Daenerys knew this, so as soon as Tyrion slapped the table, he planned to call someone to find out what was going on.
But suddenly, Tyrion noticed that the movements of the knights seemed to be ordered directly by Daenerys, but they didn't believe it.
Daenerys has some talent for commanding war, but she is not outstanding, she is not a naturally qualified commander, she may be able to win once or twice, but she needs the help of experienced generals.
What's more, now she uses her own strength more often to charge, and the role of the knight's army is not highlighted much, so the army is not commanded by Daenerys, but by Daniel, the guy who Tyrion has single-handedly raised.
So the movements of these knights were ordered by Daenerys, which sounds like nonsense.
But Tyrion didn't immediately deny it, because he knew more, so there was more room to think, he knew the complicated relationship between Daenerys and those people, and he knew ...... The indifference of the wizard to life.
After pondering for a moment, Tyrion suddenly threw the parchment of the information into the brazier.
The flames roared out, engulfing the parchment in an instant, burning little by little in the flames, turning to ashes and finally dissipating into the air.
All proof of its existence was gone, as if Tyrion had forgotten the parchment and refocused on the newly conquered island of Dragonstone.
Small flaws won't affect Daenerys's general trend, but if the small flaws are magnified and end up involving some other, more secretive things, it's hard to say.
Tyrion has always been a very cautious man, he doesn't sacrifice himself for others, and he doesn't meddle in his affairs, especially ...... He knew this all the more after that trumped-up trial......
Near the cliff of Dragonstone Island, where the sea breeze was howling, a somewhat thick figure was standing on the edge of the cliff, and Mark's suit wrapped Stark thickly, so that he could warm the sea breeze here.
Actually, you can't feel any wind.
But the calm was soon shattered, a bolt of lightning pierced the night sky, and Barry appeared behind Stark with a sizzling electric current, and he lowered his steps and came to Stark's side.
"You're homesick too?" Stark didn't speak, and it was Barry who spoke first.
"A little, boy." Stark's voice was clearly conveyed through the Mark suit, and there seemed to be a hint of joking ridicule, "But I think the point should be on the word." He said.
"Ah...... Oh, yes. Barry smiled sheepishly, touched the tip of his nose, and whispered.
He stared at Stark, and even though he was standing behind Stark, Jarvis was keenly aware of Barry's anomaly and alerted his master.
"Look at what I'm doing like that." Stark said, "You don't think I'm going to carry a photo or a necklace with me, only the old popsicle is still there, Jarvis has everything I need, and there's a photo book in it, but unfortunately I can't see the latest Playboy." ”
Barry touched his nose again and didn't comment on Stark's style, but his performance was indeed too weird, which immediately caught Stark's attention.
"What the hell are you trying to say, Barry." Stark turned around and asked, "I know you're shy, but I didn't expect you to get to this point, I almost thought you were going to confess to me...... Wait, it won't really be like that. ”
Barry was made to laugh at Stark's interjection, which also broke the strange atmosphere between the two, and after a while, Barry suddenly became serious, and then asked in a low voice, "What's the matter with you...... Are you hiding it from me? ”
"Why do you say that?" Stark was stunned for a moment, then asked rhetorically.
Barry's expression immediately became serious, "Is that really true?" ”
Stark rolled his eyes, as if he could sense it through the mask, "Are you an idiot?" He asked.
"Or do you watch a lot of TV dramas, I really think we are characters in TV series, how can there be so many conspiracies and troubles in this world to find you, believe me, life is very boring, so I often go to have fun, so those who say I am a playboy really misunderstand me."
Even Barry, who was a little helpless about Stark's cheekiness, pouted and said, "I'm sorry...... I just thought something might be related to me, but I didn't know it. ”
"You know, I was deceived by my closest person not long ago, my closest person, for so many years, he has been helping me all the time, cultivating the person I am, but in the end, it was only for my speed, it was all a scam."
Barry's voice was a little louder, and he stopped, then said again, "Sorry, I'm a little excited." ”
"Nothing." Stark said, "I'm not interested in your business, but I know something, trust me, I'm too lazy to lie to you, and there's nothing to hide." ”
