After obtaining the Bachelor's Chain, Gooding tied it to his wrist.

There are tens of millions of books in the school city, and the public and private books in all other cities on the entire continent combined are less than half of the school city. This is also the most attractive part of the old town.

Most of the books in the school city are placed in the school city hall. This is also a place where all bachelors can come and go freely and study.

Gooding quickly found the area where the occult was located and immersed himself in reading.

And during the time of Guding's disappearance, the situation in King's Landing has become more and more severe.

After the Valley of Arryn, the cities in the Trident River area were slaughtered by the army of strangers one by one, and the city of Riverrun, after holding out for twenty-one days, also completely fell, followed by the Red Pink City, the Stone Church, the Golden Tooth City, and one city after another.

In just a month, the western side of the Trident River fell completely.

What made King's Landing breathe a little bit was that after attacking the Trident, the Wraiths did not change their direction and headed south towards King's Lands. Instead, it continued southwest, crossing Riverside Avenue towards Kaiyan City.

Castle Rock is the ruling area of the Lannisters.

The attack on Kaiyan City by the strange spirits made the queen uneasy every day during this time. Because her father is the lord of Kaiyan City. Although the relationship with her father was not good since she was a child, after all, it was her father, and Kaiyan City was also where she grew up.

She approached the king several times to send reinforcements, but the king refused on various grounds. She even approached Eddard, but Ed remained neutral on the matter.

Although Kaiyan City, like Eagle's Nest City, is an easy place to defend and difficult to attack, the terrain of Riverbend is much simpler than that of Arryn Valley. Even though the city of Kaiyan had an incredible amount of money, it only lasted a month before it was captured, and the lord of Kaiyan City, Tywin, also died in the war.

Hearing the news of her father's death, the queen locked herself in her room for several days.

After Kaiyan City, the other cities of the Riverbend were quickly attacked. Wherever the army of strangers passed, there was hardly a living rat, let alone a human.

The fall of all the cities to the west put King's Landing in an extremely awkward position. Once the city was breached, they had to flee east, and to the east, there was the endless Blackwater Bay.

In more than two months, Gooding finally finished reading all the books related to the occult, and his spiritual power also skyrocketed to the peak of a seventh-level mage, and he was only one step away from stepping into the level of an eighth-level mage.

The books in Xuecheng have made Guding gain a lot in the past two months, and it can even be said that his knowledge has made a qualitative leap. The understanding of magic is also deepened.

In the hall of the school city, except for some forbidden arts, almost all magic books are here, and Gooding has learned thousands of different types of magic. He has also developed a lot of his own techniques. There are several of them, and they are even close to the power of forbidden arts.

Gooding also knew that in the entire school city, there were only a few scholars who could access the deeper forbidden books. If you want to view books of this level, the permissions are far from enough.

Instead of continuing his stay in Old Town, he returned to the perilous city of King's Landing.

As soon as Gooding returned to the inn, Jon knew. He was a little curious about how Guding had entered the city, because the west was already surrounded by an army of strange spirits. To the east, there is the sea......

After returning to King's Landing, Gooding took a short rest, and the next day climbed a tower to watch the battle between the army of strangers and humans.

After reading it, Gooding also had to admit that the military strength of King's Landing was indeed amazing. Moreover, several commanders, including Lord Ed, are quite experienced veterans.

Coupled with the addition of those magicians, for a while, King's Landing did not fall into a disadvantage.

But Gooding knew that this was only temporary, because the army of strangers could replenish their army with dead humans, and the ghouls hardly knew what exhaustion was, let alone what pain was like. The vitality is also extremely tenacious, as long as it is not killed, even if only half of the body is left, it can attack.

But humans are different, humans are tired, need sleep, need food, and human warriors cannot be resurrected when they die, and the number is decreasing all the time.

Knowing that Gooding had returned, Ed took the time to meet with him and inquire about the strong man who could subdue the dragon. The answer given by Gooding was, of course, that he had not received useful information.

In the days following Ed's departure, Gooding went to the flea nest every day to bring food to the children.

The situation in King's Landing, which was fine at first, got worse and worse as time went on.

Gooding was well aware of the changes in the city, and many officials and merchants had already begun to arrange for their families to flee King's Landing.

"In war, the most bitter people are ordinary people." Gooding shook his head helplessly.

On this day, Gooding came to the flea nest with a pile of food.

A group of children quickly gathered around, and Gooding handed out the food.

A little girl caught Gooding's attention, and Gooding remembered that her name was Anna, and she used to eat in large gulps, for fear that someone would rob her. But this time, for some reason, she tore off the soft bread piece by piece and ate it slowly.

"Anna, what's going on today? Is soft bread with grated coconut not tasty? Gooding asked with a smile.

"No," Anna shook her head, "Mother said that the strangers were about to break through the city, and everyone would die by then." I won't be able to eat anything good in the future...... So I want to eat slowly and remember the taste. ”

"It's okay, there will be later." Gooding shook his head and laughed.

"Uncle, you should also be rich when you buy us food, why don't you escape by boat? Mother said that now the rich people in the city and those who were in power have fled, and those who remain in the city will be killed by the strangers. Anna continued.

Gooding basically went out in his adult form during this time, so the children here called him uncle.

"My mother also said, but it's a pity that she can't see me marrying a wife." A fat man on the side interjected.

"You two are really unproductive, one knows how to eat, and the other knows how to marry a wife. I'm not like any of you, my dream is to become a great inventor! A thin man clenched his fist and said, but then wilted again, "Unfortunately, this dream can't be realized." ”

"I hope I can make a lot of money and stuff the house with soft bread of all flavors when the time comes!"

"I wish I could marry the prince I thought was handsome when I grew up!"

……

Watching a group of innocent children talk about their dreams, Gooding took a deep breath, "It seems that this world really needs to change, and this may be the meaning of my reincarnation in this world......"
