Chapter 607: Scarlet Banquet (2)

Under the gloomy night, there seemed to be countless darkness hidden, thick clouds floated above the Storm's Breath, covering the things behind the clouds, and a little lightning spark-like thunder appeared in it, and between this flickering light, you could vaguely see countless daggers dripping with blood densely crowded together, surging like locusts.

Under the cover of night, they were slowly drifting towards the Storm's Rest Castle standing on the high cliffs, like a dark cloud, pressing towards the sky above the Storm's End, and the crowd in the castle was still unaware of it, still holding a feast to celebrate their new lord, Daenerys.

Under the night, the blood-colored veins on the city wall seemed to be more vivid, vivid, as if a little dazzling.

"You ...... it now" After realizing that he might have forgotten something, Yi Huan immediately became a little nervous, he wanted Daenerys to end the party, drive the civilians away, and move the Unsullied to a safe place, but the words swirled around Yi Huan's mouth, but he finally swallowed it back.

"What's wrong?" Daenerys also noticed that Yi Huan's expression was a little inappropriate, at first she thought it was caused by the abnormal movement of these burning flames on the city wall, but now these flames still did not change, but became more and more red, I don't think it was a problem.

But Yi Huan's nervousness is real, which can't escape Daenerys's gaze, and according to what she knows about Yi Huan, this guy has always been very calm, even a little cold, and there are few things that can stir up his emotions, so...... What the hell is going on.

"I think about it, I think about it......" Yi Huan interrupted Daenerys' question with a wave of his hand, his gaze a little wandering. Fall on the ground at your feet. Fall in the surroundings. He glanced at the eerie patterns that burned on the city walls, and finally glanced at the sky overhead.

These demons are really unguardable, even if Yi Huan is extra careful, but still fall into its trap, the fluctuations emitted by this magic array in front of him are very familiar, any demon hunter who knows anything about demons will tell that this is a magic array that uses blood as a drive, without blood, the magic array is useless. When there is blood, it is especially dangerous.

Of course, Yi Huan also recognized it, after he entered the Wind Rest Castle, he began to look for magic nodes all over the city, and the hell patterns engraved on the city wall naturally couldn't escape his eyes, but finding the magic array left by the demon not only did not make Yi Huan feel at ease, but it deepened his doubts even more.

The sacrifice of the blood left by the demon is easy to understand, after all, attacking Storm's End will surely kill people, whether it is the life of the Unsullied or the life of the soldiers of Storm's End. In the eyes of the demons, they are all the same, and the magic array does not refuse.

What makes Yi Huan puzzled is. It is impossible for the demon not to understand the power around Daenerys, whether it is the existence of the real dragon or himself and others, he is absolutely sure that the castle will open the door and surrender, and the blood sacrifice is engraved on the walls of the castle without any obstruction, making it feel very unchallenging to play the hustle and bustle that everyone has come to find fault.

Nothing seems flawed, and even the clues left behind are not reminiscent of any other clues.

But now, Yi Huan understands.

This Blood Sacrifice Magic Array didn't need blood as a drive in the first place, as it was a reverse magic array that needed blood to stop functioning, and it ...... It has already been activated.

Everything makes sense, some time ago, a few people in the valley were attacked by werewolves controlled by demons, it was not an attack for no reason, the blood after their death was the energy to drive this magic array, and the strange assassin arm that suddenly appeared in the camp of the unsullied before was the magic creature born after this blood sacrifice was activated, they are the things summoned by the magic array.

It took days from the werewolf attack on the valley to Daenerys' arrival at Storm's End, but the magic circle was activated from the beginning and has been in action all this time, so it's not surprising that a small number of uncontrolled, or deliberate assassin arms have attacked the Unsullied camp.

The only thing Yi Huan didn't expect was that the demon didn't intend to cause a lot of blood in Storm's Rest in the first place, because the magic array didn't need blood to drive, because blood was the only thing that could stop the magic array.

Yi Huan and Stark infiltrated Storm's End overnight and let Daenerys settle in with minimal bloodshed, just cutting off the last chance to stop the magic circle.

Yi Huan figured out these things almost instantly, but it was too late, maybe it was ...... Not really.

"I need you to mobilize the Unsullied at once." Yi Huan suddenly said to Daenerys, "At least a thousand people, and there is a possibility that they may need to be transferred." ”

He glanced up at the gloomy black night, where he couldn't see anything, and suddenly raised his right hand, and an invisible wave of magic power spread out wantonly, setting off a cold wind everywhere he went, and the wind turned into a whistling sharp knife, and before the surrounding guards could even react, they had already slit their throats, causing blood to gush out.

Suddenly, a strong smell of blood permeated the city.

"What are you doing?!" Daenerys was taken aback, it didn't take more than a few seconds from the time Yi Huan spoke to the time he killed all the soldiers around him who could be seen, although Daenerys didn't suspect that Yi Huan wanted to hurt herself, and believed that he had a reason to do so, but she was still stunned for a moment, and some wondered if he was crazy.

"I'm doing what I'm supposed to do." Yi Huan said calmly, "Now, time is running out, go and mobilize all the innocent people who can be mobilized." ”

"For ...... Why? Daenerys, who was rarely calm, stammered a little, and she stared at Yi Huan very suspiciously, "What are you going to do?" ”

And in the same way, Yi Huan's answer is also consistent and unfazed, "Kill them." He whispered.

Daenerys's expression was very strange, it was a kind of wanting to laugh, and it was like hearing someone else joking, and a little mixed with the look of a madman, "I don't understand what you're talking about." She shook her head.

Yi Huan glanced at the sky again, and the strange flames on the surrounding walls were suddenly still raging. After the smell of blood that had just diffused. They seem to be a little bleaker. But this dimness is almost imperceptible.

"Time is running out." Yi Huan said again, he took a deep breath, "I'll make a long story short, this magic array in front of me is a very ancient magic array, I have stood here for an afternoon and it is not without gain, I can tell you two points, the first blood is the driving core of the magic array, there is blood." The magic circle can work, and second, the arms that attacked the camp of the Unsullied were summoned by this magic array. ”

"So what?" Daenerys shook her head a little puzzled, "We're not ...... Didn't you enter Storm's End without the slightest bloodshed? ”

"That's exactly the problem." Yi Huan shrugged, "After your reminder just now, I suddenly thought of one thing, this magic array has been burning, I never understand, now I know, it has been activated." And its core has been swapped, not blood. Rather, blood is needed...... to stop it. ”

"Blood is needed...... to stop it? Daenerys repeated with some difficulty.

"That's right." Yi Huan's face was very calm, "We didn't die a single person to defeat the Storm's Breath Castle, and we missed the best opportunity to stop this magic array, now, we have to remedy it." ”

"So you mobilized the Unsullied to kill them and sacrifice them?" Daenerys deserves to have been a queen for many years, and quickly understood what Yi Huan meant, and calmed herself down, and asked calmly.

"Yes, Your Majesty, time is running out, make a decision as soon as possible." Yi Huan's voice still did not fluctuate, as if the whole person had no waves.

Daenerys's pretty face kept throbbing, as if suppressing a volcanic rage, and she almost gritted her teeth and said, "Your Majesty? She stared at Yi Huan, "If you still know that I am Her Majesty the Queen, you should know that everyone is my people, and everyone is!" I'm not going to let you do that! ”

"That's going to kill more people." Yi Huan's answer was still calm, "Exchanging the lives of a small number of people for more people to survive is what the queen should do." ”

"I trust you!" Daenerys growled in her throat.

"While I'm not obligated not to disappoint you, I certainly haven't." Yi Huan also looked at her, "I said a long time ago that there are many uncontrollable things in magic, and I will have a solution, and this is my method." ”

"I'm not going to agree with you doing that." No matter what Yi Huan said, Daenerys was very firm anyway, she stared at Yi Huan's eyes motionlessly, without the slightest concession.

"You've got to think about it, Daenerys." Yi Huan said, "You've seen those unguarded assassin arms, just a small attack brought huge casualties to the Unsullied, and we will face it later, but their full-scale attack, almost tens of thousands, no one can survive in that situation." ”

"Although I could go to the Unsullied and kill them right now, you agreed that I would do it, time is running out, and you had better make a decision as soon as possible."

Daenerys's expression was very resolute, as if she was going to eat people, staring fiercely into Yi Huan's eyes, "I have already made a decision. "I'm not going to let you do that." ”

"As you wish, Your Majesty." Unfazed, he whispered, and as if remembering something, he reminded, "Oh yes, it's okay to kill other people, like the inhabitants of Storm's End." ”

"That's not okay either!" Daenerys finally roared angrily, she glared at Yi Huan angrily, and for the first time she found that the wizard in front of her was so calm in the face of any life...... Or apathy.

"Why...... We're not leaving here now? Suddenly, Barristan next to him said weakly, "Nothing matters, let's run for our lives immediately, can we start?" ”

Hearing this, Daenerys's eyes immediately lit up, but such a simple question, even if Yi Huan didn't consider it, it would have been taken into account when he created the magic array.

Yi Huan shook his head slightly, "Impossible." "You smell you, there's a strange smell." ”

When Barristan heard this, he immediately twisted the corners of his shoulders and sniffed, and sure enough, there was a strange smell, not a stench, not a smell of sweat, not a smell of blood, a very strange ...... "This is ......" He frowned slightly.

"It's brimstone." Yi Huan said, "Maybe Daenerys's ancestors know something, they live in the eastern volcanic region of Essos, but you don't need to know what this is, this thing is in everyone, and it also means that no one can escape, and the magic has locked us." ”

"But you don't seem nervous." Daenerys chimed in.

"Of course." Yi Huan nodded, "Don't worry, even if everyone dies, you won't be fine, if the number is smaller, I can still protect you." ”

Daenerys didn't speak, still looking at Yi Huan coldly, the towering wall stood behind several people, and the raging flames were jumping and rising on it, as if cheering for the life that was about to be devoured.

A strong smell of blood echoed around several people, it was left behind by Yi Huan who had just killed the soldiers of Wind Breath Castle, in order to make the best use of resources, Yi Huan used magic to drain their blood, and the taste was particularly strong, and they also became the first victims of the magic array tonight, but they did not die in the magic array, but died at the hands of Yi Huan.

Not far away, in the center of the castle, the warmth and brightness of a bonfire, mixed with the laughter and conversation of the civilians of Storm's End, these humans did not know that they were about to be in calamity, and still laughed and enjoyed the banquet prepared for them by the new lord Daenerys.

Yi Huan looked up at the sky, and there were countless dangers hidden under the endless night sky, and there seemed to be some kind of terrifying beast in the surging clouds, which was a precursor to the coming storm.

"I still choose to trust you." Daenerys, who had been silent not far away, suddenly spoke, and she said slowly, "You will protect the people here." ”

Yi Huan's calm gaze fell on her face and shook her head, "It's impossible, it's too late to stop it now, they're already here." ”

The eyes of several people rose to the sky with the hustle and bustle of the words, and in the deep night, a large black and oppressive dark cloud seemed to float from a distance, and it was squirming incessantly, falling like rain above the Storm's Rest Castle.

"Magic can't be stopped." Yi Huan stood aside quietly, "And you have made your choice, now...... These people are dying and no one can escape. (To be continued......)
