Iron Islands, the eastern sea area.
On the sea in the dark night, a small long boat quietly approached the coast outside Pyke.
There is no parking place outside Pyke, and there is a towering city wall on the shore. Due to lack of land, Pyke was built on three desert islands and twelve giant rock pillars.
There were only two sailors and a huge ice cocoon on the long boat on the shore.
The two men carried the ice cocoon to the foot of the city wall on the shore and tapped the ice rhythmically with their fingers.
"Click!"
The ice cocoon cracked, Gary stepped out, "Are we here?"
The two Ironborn bowed their heads respectfully and saluted, "Your Majesty, this is Pyke. However, we have no way to climb the city wall, and Pyke has no secret passage. We have no idea how to enter the city."
Gary looked at the city wall in front of him and raised his hand to touch it. Countless ice surfaces instantly covered the entire east wall.
"Well, a city wall of this thickness is not particularly strong."
His left eye lit up with a faint green light, and a terrifying chill erupted from his body. The moment he stamped his feet, the entire sea surface within a few hundred meters was frozen.
Then, a huge ice fist rushed out of the frozen sea and hit the east wall of Pyke hard.
"Bang!"
The ice fist shattered and fell together with the gravel. It left a fist mark with a diameter of more than five meters on the east wall.
Gary squatted down, touched the ice on the ground with his left hand, and created a Ice barrier that could withstand falling objects, protecting himself and the two Ironborn.
At the same time, more ice fists formed on the sea surface, punching continuously and smashing the east wall of Pyke.
"Boom!"
After receiving countless punches, the east wall of Pyke collapsed, and countless defenders were crushed to death by the wall.
Then Gary reinforced the ice on the sea, and two thousand the North soldiers stepped on the ice to attack the city, and fought into Pyke with him.
In just one night, Gary captured the capital of Iron Islands, Pyke.
In the days that followed, Gary accompanied Asha to visit all the families on the seven islands. Wherever they went, Ice blocked the sea, rendering Ironborn's fleet useless and cutting off the escape route for the Iron Islands nobles.
With the support of Gary, Asha successfully became Iron Islands, female Earl, and swore allegiance to King in the North.
After Gary waited for Asha to stabilize the situation, he led the fifteen hundred the North troops back, leaving five hundred soldiers to garrison Pyke to prevent Asha from being ignored by others.
Vale, Vale of Arryn, the Eyrie's Yamashita.
The Eyrie is located at the top of Mountains of the Moon, towering into the sky.
There is only one canyon going up the mountain. House Arryn built a fortress called "Bloody Gate" here, specifically to resist foreign enemies who want to go up the mountain. It can be regarded as the Eyrie's "city wall".
Tyrion left the North's army outside the valley, and Barristan led twenty Giants heavy armored soldiers into the canyon.
The canyon is very narrow, and Giants all walked forward without riding mammoths. They left their mounts in the military camp and did not bring them over.
Tyrion and others came under Bloody Gate and stopped, "Who is Knight of the Bloody Gate?"
Knight of the Bloody Gate is the commander guarding Bloody Gate. The current Knight of the Bloody Gate, Donal Waywood, stepped on the top of Bloody Gate's city and looked down at the more than twenty tall steel Giants, and couldn't help feeling terrified.
"I am Knight of the Bloody Gate, Donal Waywood. Are you Hand of the King, Tyrion·Lannister of the North? We have no intention of participating in the war between the North and Iron Throne. Sir, please come back."
Tyrion rode on the horse, lowered his head and smiled, shouting, "That's not possible. Now that the war is imminent, you Vale must express your stance. Otherwise, we will not trust you to leave the rear to you."
Donal Waywood had received an order from Littlefinger before, so he responded loudly, "Sir, we Vale will only be loyal to Iron Throne. No matter whether Iron Throne is sat by Theon by Baila or Stark, they are all loyal to us."
In other words, what he means is that if the North has the ability to get Iron Throne, he can gain the allegiance of Vale.
Tyrion smiled and said nothing, and Barristan patiently waited for something.
"Huh~"
Three Dragon flew quickly from above Bloody Gate, rising in altitude and flying towards the Eyrie on the top of the mountain.
Donal Waywood was so frightened that he shrank back and hid behind the wall, "Dragon? Is that Dragon? The North really has Dragon?! Or is it three heads?"
Tyrion shouted, "Sir Donal Waywood, you'd better open the door quickly and let us go up the mountain. Otherwise Dragon will lose his temper easily if he waits for a long time. If those three little ancestors get angry, they might burn your the Eyrie."
Donal Waywood showed his head and said angrily, "How dare you?!"
Tyrion's smile disappeared and he looked at Donal Waywood coldly, "Why don't you dare?"
Donal Waywood weighed the pros and cons, struggled for a long time, and stared at the three Dragon in the air that were about to arrive at the Eyrie, and finally compromised.
He ordered his men to ride fast horses to report the news to the Eyrie, then put his head over his head and said to Tyrion, "Okay! I will let you enter Vale of Arryn. But I will also truthfully report your threatening and intimidating behavior."
Tyrion motioned him to open the door quickly, "Sir, please help yourself. We have no objection."
The end of Vale of Arryn, the top of the mountain, the Eyrie.
Petyr·Baelish personally came to the gate of the Eyrie to greet Tyrion and others.
In view of the geographical restrictions, the Eyrie is just a small castle, and the activity area inside is relatively crowded. So most of the Giantss stayed outside the city, and only two Giants followed Tyrion and Barristan into the city.
Baelish bowed enthusiastically, "Tyrion Master, Ser Barristan Selmy, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
Barristan kept Gary's order in mind and put his hand on the hilt of Valyrian steel sword's sword at his waist without saying a word.
Tyrion held Barristan's arm and chatted with Baelish, "Sir Petyr, I hope to meet Duke Robert·Arryn."
Robert·Arryn is an eight-year-old child. His parents have died and now he has inherited the title of Duke.
"Littlefinger" Baelish is the stepfather of Robert·Arryn. Legally speaking, he can act as the duke of Robert·Arryn and take charge of Vale on his behalf.
Baelish rubbed his hands, "Of course, you two... uh, four of you will come with me."
Tyrion and others followed Baelish and passed through three fortresses and secondary forts before arriving at Main Castle's location.
Eight-year-old Robert·Arryn is sitting on the Weirwood throne in the hall, accompanied by several Vale lords.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
The two Giants took heavy steps, stooped into the hall, and then stayed at the door.
Tyrion and Barristan came under the throne, nodded and saluted, "Robert·Arryn Duke."
Robert·Arryn saw Tyrion's appearance and clapped her hands happily, "A dwarf? Haha, it's a dwarf! Can you ride a pig? I want you to watch your performance!"
