Chapter 78 The Fourth Egg
With the addition of Whitebeard, Jorah and the Bloodriders, the battle situation on the deck quickly reversed, especially the two rowing boats, Summer Sun and Jojo, which were far from the Dragon Horn and less affected.
Four or five hundred sailors quickly rushed back to the deck of Serenity under the leadership of Belvos.
About half an hour later, the pirates, who had more than 30% of their casualties, laid down their weapons and knelt down to surrender. After the battle subsided, some sailors tried to use pliers to pull out the gold from the ears of the pirate corpses.
The gold in both ears added up to half a pound, twisted and cone-shaped, seven or eight centimeters long, passed through the cochlea, and went deep into the brain cavity. The end was still stained with white wet brain fluid, which was creepy to look at.
Dany even suspected that if she looked through one ear, she might be able to see the scenery on the other side of the head - the whole head was burned through by the scorching gold.
The fiery red sun in the west lay lazily on the sea, with only half of its face exposed. The sea water was sparkling, reflecting the dazzling golden light. Big Black had completely recovered from the sound of the horn, and was now soaring among the red clouds, feeling very comfortable.
There were several people standing at the bow.
Dany had already washed and dressed again, but her face was very red, and there were blisters.
Aggo came over and reported: "Khaleesi, 14 centaurs died, four of them were burned to death by the two out-of-control dragons, and seven or eight people were burned but not dead."
"Alas, they are all brave warriors. Let Blackbeard prepare wooden boats and kerosene for their funeral." Gritting her teeth, she added: "Bring out their mounts, feed them a full meal, and kill them tonight for burial."
The dead were all from the 80 roaring warriors. The old, weak, women and children had been hiding in the cabin and had not been affected by the war.
80 roaring warriors, 80 precious dragon horses, but this time Dany will not get a straw horse instead of a steed like she did last time to fool old Watson.
As long as conditions permit, Dany is willing to give the highest treatment and honor to those who die for her.
Otherwise, who will work for you?
Sure enough, as soon as Dany said this, all the centaurs around her looked at her with more awe.
Ago retreated, and Jorah stepped forward to report: "Two sailors were burned, and no one was burned to death."
This is normal. After Dany knew that the great wizard Baya would go out to sea to pursue her, she prepared for the naval battle.
In this world, the most important tactic of naval warfare is still boarding battle.
So Dany asked the centaurs and two dragons to form a shield formation. A hole was dug in the center of the two door-sized wooden shields. The centaurs raised their shields to protect themselves and the dragons, and the dragons pointed their mouths at the hole and spit fire.
After spitting fire, another centaur immediately blocked the hole with the small copper shield on his arm, and waited for the little dragon to recover, then moved the copper shield away and let them spit fire at the hole.
This is a "dragon meat" version of a flamethrower.
The lethality of a flamethrower in close combat, needless to explain?
On a narrow ship, it is an absolute killer, with a dragon on each side of the ship, no matter how many people rush over, it is not afraid.
This was originally a killer "biochemical" weapon prepared for Haiya.
If Euron was a normal person, in today's battle, the "Dragon" brand flamethrower would definitely become famous in one battle, famous at home and abroad. It's a pity that who would think that the guy has a magic weapon like the Dragon Horn that is specifically aimed at dragons?
Biochemical weapons vs magic weapons, the biochemical weapons are completely defeated!
Okay, I'm getting off topic.
It is precisely because the two dragons and the centaurs combined into a giant dragon flamethrower, so when the dragons lost control, the centaurs suffered the most losses, and the four centaurs holding the wooden board to protect the dragons all died.
Alas, this is also similar to the experience of the flamethrower. It feels great when burning others with fire, but when the fuel barrel is blown up by others, it becomes a human torch.
"27 of our sailors were killed by pirates, and another 35 were injured, with casualties approaching 30%. All 34 deaf pirates who boarded the ship died, and Belwas led his men to kill 59 pirates of the Serenity, 53 of whom were only mute but not deaf." Jorah continued.
"Wrap the pirates' bodies in a layer of sackcloth and throw them into the sea, sailor." Dany looked at Blackbeard Grole and asked, "Are there any special customs?"
"I'll arrange it." Blackbeard sighed.
"By the way, Euron is not dead." Jorah said again.
"He was burned into a torch by dragon fire and he didn't die? And he was unconscious in the water for more than half an hour. Could he know magic?" Dany was surprised.
"Maybe the Ironborn have undergone special training!" Jorah thought for a moment and explained, "The Ironborn also believe in the Drowned God, and the priests of the Drowned God are called Drowned Men.
The Ironborn have a popular 'drowning' ceremony. The Drowned Men first press the person participating in the ceremony into the water until he faints, and then spit out the water by pressing the chest. Maybe the Crow's Eye has participated in the drowning ceremony, and maybe the Drowned God is blessing him."
"How does the Drowned Men know that the person who fainted in the sea can survive?" Dany asked curiously.
"It's not certain. Many people can't be saved, so this very 'ancient' ceremony is rarely participated in now." Jorah said.
Dany was embarrassed. She thought the Drowned Men had unique magical means to help people perform extreme cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Who would have thought that it was just "relying on God's will."
"Bring Euron here, I want to ask him about the Dragon Horn." She said.
"Well, although he is not dead, he has not regained consciousness," Ser Jorah glanced at Whitebeard, "He was severely burned all over his body, and was hit on the top of his head by Astan. He is still unconscious now!"
"Then bring the Dragon Horn." She said again.
Jorah got excited and shouted, "Don't rush to look at the Dragon Horn, Princess, guess what we found on the Serenity?"
"Magic books?" Dany also got excited, "Euron is not only unaffected by the Dragon Horn, but can also control my dragon through it. I even saw his eyes glowing. It's not an illusion."
"It's indeed not an illusion," Whitebeard nodded solemnly, "I saw it too. Although it's difficult to move, my five senses are not lost."
The big bear shook his head and sighed, "Except for the Dragon Horn, I really didn't find anything like mysterious witchcraft. But I found a dragon egg and a set of Valyrian steel full body armor on the Serenity."
"Wow, what an unexpected surprise!" Dany clapped her hands and laughed, "Hurry up and bring the dragon egg here, I'll see if it's real or fake."
Whether the dragon egg is real or fake, a set of Valyrian steel armor is also priceless.
At that moment, two centaurs came forward, each carrying a box.
"Khaleesi, this is a dragon egg." The centaur handed over a black wooden box the size of a jewelry box.
Dany took it eagerly, and when she opened it, she saw a "rusty" bronze lump on the soft myr wool mat.
Her fingers gently slid across the dense scales, and Dany's face gradually revealed an unconcealed joy.
Jorah saw her expression and asked quickly, "Is it really a complete dragon egg?"
"A bronze dragon." Dany nodded and smiled.
"But it seems to have become a fossil." Whitebeard said in surprise.
"It's just stone. Listen." Dany tapped on it with her fingers. "Dong Dong," a solid and crisp sound.
"Stone can really hatch dragons?" Blackbeard Grolai said in disbelief.
"Humph, where do you think Khaleesi's dragon came from?" Quirrell asked proudly.
"Everyone knows that dragons come out of stone." The maid Jhiqui also echoed.
Dany put the dragon egg back into the box and said to the centaur maid, "Jhiqui, put it on the head of my bed. Well, I will always hold it to sleep in the future. You are responsible for watching it."
"Yes, Khaleesi."
"How long will it take to hatch a dragon?" Whitebeard asked curiously.
Dany thought about it. The last time Daenerys took a year to gather the "spiritual essence" of the three eggs to form a new soul. She used the dragon hatching skill more "actively" than the original owner, so it should be faster.
"About half a year, no more than 10 months." She said.
After Jhiqui left with the box, Dany didn't open the big box containing the armor. Instead, she looked at Quirrell carefully and said, "Quilol, except for me, you and your team were not affected much by the sound of the dragon's horn. Why is that?"
"I don't know." The centaur touched his bald head and said blankly, "When the horn sounded, I felt that my blood was boiling. I felt very uncomfortable and just wanted to vent all my strength."
In the previous turmoil, the other side had 24 tall and brave pirates, and a dozen deaf pirates were climbing from the gangplank. If it weren't for Quirrell and the other nine dragon guards' crazy resistance, two minutes would have been enough for the other side to chop down everyone on the deck.
"I feel like there are thousands of wandering souls biting my soul. It's hard to move, and they are ghosts from the fiery purgatory. My body is burning in the flames from the inside to the outside, from the bone marrow to the skin." Whitebeard said.
"Me too." Jorah, Blackbeard, and the blood guards said in confusion.
"It's the same with Belwas. Belwas feels..." The fat eunuch patted his big head and asked Dany, "Little Queen, how do you feel?"
Dany's cheeks, which were covered with red blisters from the fever, turned redder.
"My blood is boiling and my spirit is high." She said lightly.
"That's strange." Belwas murmured.
"What's strange? She is the mother of dragons. How can she be the same as others?" Jorah said, and looked at Quirrell in confusion, "Your team members are all dragon guards. Is it because you often come into contact with real dragons?"
"Irri, Doreah, you often sleep in the same room with dragons. How do you feel?" He turned to Dany's maid and said.
"Like you, my whole body feels like it's burning. I can move around, but it's like I'm drunk and can't control my body as usual." Doreah said.
It's better than Jorah and the others, but not as free as Quirrell.
"Quilo, there must be something wrong with you!" Jorah said with certainty.
"What's the problem?" Quirrell looked innocent. "The pirates won't let us go on purpose."
"Oh, I remember now." Irri suddenly shouted, clapped her hands, and said, "I was in the cabin with the horses. Although they were also frantic, they didn't collapse like us."
"Horses have four legs and won't fall down even if they are drunk." Belvos waved his hand and said indifferently.
"The Seven Gods!" Jorah suddenly woke up and suddenly realized, "Dragon dung! The dragon guards and dragon horses have all eaten dragon dung."
"Uh" Dany's mouth twitched, and she tried to ask, "Quillow, did you really eat it? What's the taste? Is it delicious?"
"Khaleesi, it doesn't taste anything special." Quirrell smacked his lips and recalled, "It's astringent, like dragon pepper powder. I was a little uncomfortable at first, but as I ate it, I was not used to it if I didn't put some dragon essence in the barbecue."
Chili powder? Are you used to it?
Dany asked woodenly: "You call that thing dragon spirit? Did it eat dragon spirit and tiger fierceness?"
"Khaleesi, how bad is it to eat dragon shit?" Quirrell said with a frown.
You know that eating shit is bad, why do you still eat it? Does it taste so good?
