Chapter 166: Leon's Night Meeting with Daenerys
"The gap between our forces and Queen Daenerys's is too big. Even if we mobilize the warriors from the entire North and the Iron Islands, we are still far behind in numbers. Unless we involve the Night King..."
One of the lords rolled his eyes slightly, and after he finished speaking, he glanced at Leon, who was listening with a smile the whole time.
After he finished speaking these outrageous words, many northern lords fell silent because of this shocking idea.
They had long heard about how Leon had single-handedly defeated the Night King, and many people secretly wondered whether Leon had reached some kind of consensus with the Night King.
This speculation is not groundless. They have witnessed many times the White Walker Night's Watchmen in black clothes and black armor patrolling Winterfell and the entire North.
The first time you see this scene, it's creepy, but after seeing it more often, everyone gets used to it, especially after seeing the Night's Watch "Defenders of the Realm" patrolling with the White Walkers many times.
However, when many people began to think about the scene after the living army and the dead army were mixed together, they couldn't help but feel a chill in their backs.
At least half of the lords present were not mentally prepared to have their backs guarded by the dead.
In response to the lord's whimsical idea, Leon responded frankly:
"This is a war of the living. There is no need to bother the dead. At least I don't want to take the Night King as my vassal for the time being, so it will not obey me."
……
"That means when we the living can't resist the Dragon Queen's army, we can ask the dead to help us? This... this is really great."
Many lords thought secretly in their hearts.
At this moment, the belligerent Wyman spoke:
"Captain Leon, I don't want to go into details about the difference in combat power and numbers between our soldiers, but as for dragons, we only have one, your Balerion, while the dragon queen has three. Moreover, your dragon was born later and is at a disadvantage in growth. Moreover, there has never been a case in history where a few dragons defeated a larger force."
Wyman stood up as he spoke. He looked down at the surrounding northern lords, making sure everyone's eyes were on him before continuing:
"So I think that even with the help of the potential ally of the Army of the Dead, we are probably no match for the other two dragons, and the premise is that Lord Leon's Balerion can hold back one of them!"
Although Wyman's words were unpleasant to hear, they still caused an uproar among the northern lords. Based on the tragic Battle of the Dreadfort caused by Balerion's dragon, they began to discuss how many northern warriors the two dragons could kill.
Or how long can the entire North last under the dragon's flames?
Take the Battle of Aegon the Conqueror's Field of Wrath as an example. The human troops fought for a whole day, but the dragon that was responsible for the final cleanup only appeared for less than half an hour and wiped out all the forces of the dragon family's resistance coalition.
Is the North going to follow Dorne's example?
Abandon the cities and the daytime and move only at night?
But the severe cold at night in the north is far more terrifying than any enemy.
"Are you done yet, Wyman?"
However, Leon's voice was indifferent, and no attitude could be seen from his face.
"I'm done, Commander-in-Chief Lyon."
Weiman frowned, thought about it, and hid the thought of "Who agrees and who disagrees will decide after I finish speaking" in his heart.
At least before Lyon showed obvious signs of decline, he did not intend to offend the Dragon Lord who was so close because of the Dragon Queen who was far away on the sea.
“Okay, I got your idea, but what I can promise is:”
"No foreigner can set foot in the North as a victor, and no foreigner can enter Winterfell as anything other than a captive."
"Three dragons, huh? I'll fend them off myself!"
There was a hint of contempt in Leon's mouth, and his fingers inadvertently touched the ring of royal power on his hand.
Regardless of whether Daenerys' three dragons have the same abnormal development speed as Balerion in sharing Lyon's experience, the characteristic of the Dragon Lord that makes all dragons submit unconditionally makes Lyon invincible in front of dragons.
Unless... Daenerys also has a special method to accelerate the growth of dragons, unless Daenerys's dragon breaks through the obedience limit of the Ring of Kingship - undead dragon, as the name suggests, literally.
But Leon believed that there had never been an undead dragon in the world. Even the most powerful dragon in history, Balerion, was reincarnated.
Therefore, Lyon would never believe that he would capsize in the gutter.
So that night, Lyon rode on Balerion and went alone to the sea beyond the East Sea to look for Daenerys's fleet.
When Jorah, who couldn't fall asleep and whose right eyelid was twitching, couldn't help turning over in bed, he just saw a huge figure like thick ink passing through the dark night sky.
"What am I seeing!? How could the Night's Watch have a dragon that is... bigger than Dany's Drogon!"
Jorah looked up at the sky with bloodshot eyes. He couldn't believe that even a dragon as legendary as Daenerys would one day be weaker than others?
As far as he knew, Drogon was the largest dragon in the world, but he was very clear that Drogon was nowhere near half the size of Balerion, whose wings could cover an entire town with a wave!
"Damn it, the intelligence is wrong! I have to send a raven to inform Dany immediately."
Just as he was thinking this, Jorah pushed open the door, but the guard guarding him at the door pushed him back forcefully.
When Jorah was about to draw his sword in anger, he met the guard's deep blue eyes.
Jorah couldn't help but be surprised. Isn't this the lair of the Night's Watch and the Northerners? How come they couldn't react when the Night King invaded?
Just as Jorah was about to puff out his cheeks and call for help.
As luck would have it, Lyanna Mormont was also awake. She strolled to the door of his guest room, smiling on the surface, but secretly asked with caution in her heart:
"Uncle, it's so late, even the prostitutes have gone to bed, where are you going?"
"I'm going to go for a walk outside..."
As Jorah spoke, he winked at his niece who was walking towards him, signaling her to run quickly.
But I don't know if it was because it was too late or Lyanna deliberately ignored Jorah's hint.
"Then let this White Walker accompany you? It can't speak, so it is a qualified listener."
"What? Lyanna, did I hear you correctly? You actually called this White Walker your Lordship? Did I hear you wrong?"
"Oh, don't think that all the people in the North are frightened by your words and deeds during the day. We in the North are much stronger than you think. Even the White Walkers were defeated by our Lord Commander Lyon..."
After hearing Lyanna's words, Jorah swallowed hard. After confirming that the White Walker in front of him had no special thoughts about him, he remembered what he was going to do, so he quickly said:
"In that case, Lyanna, my good niece, please ask this White Walker to move aside. I have some personal matters to deal with..."
"No, uncle, we are enemies now, not friends..."
