Chapter 425 Dragon Essence

Rhaegar's eyes were like torches, piercing Aemond's eyes.

Helena curled her hair with her fingers, and said calmly: "He wants a castle."

"Huh?"

Aemond was surprised.

Helena said the secret and turned her head away silently.

Seeing the reactions of the siblings, Rhaegar almost laughed: "As expected of my brother, his vision is sharp enough."

Holding the Three Women's Kingdoms and the Stepstones, there is no doubt that he controls the sea power in the lower half of the Narrow Sea.

The island of Nath in the Stormlands and the Stonehelm City in Cape Wrath can all be counted as within the route.

Aemond was speechless and said in panic: "No, I just thought about it."

Bang——

Rhaegar raised his hand again and slapped him on the head.

There was a bang, very solid.

Aemond felt pain and shrank back, holding his head.

Helena glanced at it, and then chose to ignore it.

He deserved the beating!

Rhaegar grabbed Aemond's ear and laughed in anger: "If you want a castle, you can tell me. My father and I haven't treated you so badly that we need to rob you. You really bring honor to the royal family."

"It hurts! It hurts so much!"

Aemond was pulled to tiptoe, not daring to resist at all.

Aegon was beaten by his elder brother when he was young, and the suffering he experienced was vivid in his mind.

The worst time for him was when he threatened Aegon to be hung on the gallows for people to see.

"You are really promising!"

Rhaegar didn't care about his begging for mercy, and shook him repeatedly like a chicken.

Among the three brothers, he was most optimistic about Aemond.

He felt that this kid was bold in taming dragons and had the courage of his childhood.

Why is he so narrow-minded!

Gnashing his teeth~

Helena couldn't maintain her expression, turned her back, and spoke quickly: "If you want a city, you have to pay a price."

"Sister!~"

Aemond didn't hear clearly, and cried for help.

He was only 10 years old, and it was really hard for him to be punished like this.

Helena turned her head away and pretended not to hear.

"Don't scream!"

Rhaegar exerted force on his hand and taught him a lesson: "If you scream again, I'll pull out your tongue."

He wanted to beat this bastard brother to death with a fist.

He really knew how to make trouble for him!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.

Rhaegar smiled kindly: "Let me ask you, delaying the occupation of Stormland and killing Sven's family, who are you going to wait for to clean up your mess?"

Allison/Otto?

Aemond was startled when he heard this, and he didn't dare to cry out in pain.

With the ability of his mother and grandfather, it might not be easy to deal with a lot of troubles.

Rhaegar smiled more and more brilliantly, and began to swing his arms and asked: "I can't say it, just wait for my father and I to clean up after you."

What a beautiful thought!

"I was wrong."

Aemond was frightened and closed his eyes to apologize.

He really didn't think that much.

I thought that once the Swan family was gone and the Dornishmen were driven away, Stonehelm would become a nobody.

Bang!

Rhaegar raised his leg and kicked Aemond, causing him to stagger. He scolded, "Get lost, you will suffer the consequences!"

"Yes."

Aemond was as if he had been pardoned. He ran while whimpering, "I will catch Olyfar Yronwood back."

He was still thinking about making up for his mistake.

Rhaegar: "Get lost!"

Aemond didn't dare to look back. He covered his red and swollen ears and ran away.

"Fool."

Helena felt a little distressed and finally turned around.

In the past, only Aegon was a fool, and Aemond was also infected.

"Did he say that he didn't say you?"

Rhaegar was even more annoyed and stretched out his hand to ruffle the little girl's hair.

Helena: ...

Raised her head, her eyes were moist, and her pink lips were pouting.

As if silently accusing:

[After talking about him, you can’t talk about me anymore]

Rhaegar rolled his eyes, walked to the main seat in the hall and sat down, supporting his chin with one hand: "Why are you here? How is King's Landing?"

He bumped into Helena halfway. The little girl was riding Dreamfire with a naive look on her face, and her speed was approaching Melias.

King's Landing must have a reason for letting her go out.

Helena frowned, smoothed her messy long hair, and said: "Dorn was preparing for a full-scale attack, and I sneaked out."

She was quite eloquent and explained the decision of the Royal Council.

Rhaegar listened and remained silent.

It was almost the same as he had guessed.

The main force of the Dornishmen looted the Stormlands, and the small fish invaded the Prince's Pass and the Bone Road, consuming the population of Dorne.

With the support of forces such as Braavos behind them, if they caught the two fortresses off guard, they might really succeed.

Rhaegar had a flash of inspiration and guessed what Chorren Martell was thinking.

First of all, was the Dorne rebellion necessary?

It was necessary!

The three female kingdoms outside the narrow sea were all conquered, so how could Dorne, which had been at odds with the Iron Throne for generations, escape?

Rhaegar's initial target of invasion was the relatively poor Dorne.

Analyze based on Dorne's environment, national conditions, and internal situation.

Dorne's harvests have been very poor in recent years, and civilians are starving.

Dorne has a large population base, at least much stronger than the North.

It is not a problem to gather 20,000 soldiers to fight against the invasion of the Stormlands.

As long as Braavos and other pushers are willing to provide food and equipment, the Dornish, who often violate the border, have no reason not to go to war.

Are they really going to wait until the Three Kingdoms of Women are completely controlled and the Iron Throne cuts off the sea control of the lower half of the Narrow Sea?

A group of dragons flew to Sunspear City and sprayed dragon flames randomly?

Fighting now can at least consume the strength of the Iron Throne, affect the stability of the three city-states, and provide help for Braavos' counterattack.

Rhaegar sighed lightly: "People are poor and have low ambitions. Land is always the root of struggle."

The Targaryens need new land, and so do the Dornish.

Helena didn't understand what she heard, so she asked softly, "Olyfar Yronwood ran away, what should we do?"

Rhaegar waved his hand, "It's okay, he ran away, but Dorne can't run away."

First, invade the Stormlands, then spy on the Vulture Mountains.

The war has become out of control at this point.

If Keoren doesn't want to fight, no!

If the Iron Throne doesn't want to fight, no!

The noble lords under the command of both sides hate each other and will not be willing to stop the war.

What Rhaegar has to do now is to lead the army to clean up the remaining Dorne troops in the Stormlands, and then support the Vulture Mountains.

If Keoren doesn't accept it, send troops from three directions to fight him.

Helena: "Father is riding a dragon to Black Harbor, we have to help."

"Of course."

Rhaegar said.

Helena hesitated a little: "How about the Three Women's Kingdom, is it okay for you to leave?"

She was only 13 years old, and the farthest she had ever been was the last time she rushed to support White Harbor.

The reputation of the free trade cities is very high. It is said that the value of each city-state is not less than a territory of Westeros.

Rhaegar smiled, his eyes soft and direct, and said: "Don't worry, where is Aunt Rhaenys."

Then, as if to satisfy the girl's curiosity, he talked about the inside story of the city-state.

"There are more than two million people in Lys?"

Helena's eyes sparkled.

Rhaegar nodded with a smile: "Lys is the most populous city-state among the three women's kingdoms, and the number of slaves liberated is countless."

If you calculate carefully, the North has a population of more than 300,000, and Dorne has a population of more than 500,000.

Not to mention that it is not as good as the three women's kingdoms, it is not even as good as King's Landing, which has a permanent population of 500,000.

A remote and poor place.

Helena smiled and threw herself into her brother's arms, rubbing her little head to please him.

I haven't seen her for several days, and the little girl wants to get close to him.

Rhaegar was a little unnatural at first, but he couldn't stand Helena's enthusiasm, and his body was no longer tense.

After a while of being intimate, he noticed the tight bracelet on Bai Ni's wrist.

"Are you still wearing this bracelet?"

Rhaegar asked.

The little girl arched her head, not wanting to show her face.

Rhaegar took her hand, the bracelet was still as simple and silver-gray as it was ten years ago, almost tightening around her white wrist.

"It's too small, don't wear it."

Rhaegar took pity on her, took off Helena's bracelet, and replaced it with his own space bracelet.

The space bracelet contains magic, automatically adapts to the size of the holder, and is worn perfectly on Helena's wrist.

Helena's eyes were full of stars, and she whispered: "Give it to me?"

A space prop.

Rhaegar was amused: "Keep it safe, it's a loss of status for you to always wear imitations."

Suddenly thought of it.

He gave Rhaenyra a Valyrian steel necklace, and Helena only had one imitation.

It was still Erik who paid for it at that time, one and a half gold dragons.

Helena smiled and said innocently: "You give it to me, what do you use?"

"Good question, I have a better one."

Rhaegar took out the space necklace from under his collar and shook it ostentatiously.

The necklace has a larger space and is more convenient to carry.

Helena took a look and found that the necklace was made of Valyrian steel and looked good.

She raised her fair little hand, and the space bracelet and necklace were both beautiful, and she felt happy.

Rhaegar looked at it and laughed.

With the space necklace, the role of the bracelet was reduced.

But a space prop is still precious.

He originally wanted to give it to Rhaenyra as the first gift for the twins.

He accidentally found that Helena was still wearing the imitation bracelet, and didn't want to favor one over the other.

"It's beautiful."

Helena admired it for a while as if she had received a treasure, and then secretly put the imitation bracelet into the space bracelet.

Rhaegar took it in his eyes, but didn't expose it.

With a thought, he took out a broken dragon scale from the necklace.

Helena's eyes widened, attracted by the dragon scale.

The dragon scale was broken in half, but still the size of a palm.

The complete scale of Dreamfire was only the size of a palm.

The original owner of this broken dragon scale was probably bigger than Vhagar and the Glutton.

Rhaegar pondered for a moment, and made up his mind: "Cut your finger and drop a drop of blood on it to try."

He had a hunch that the embers of the Fire Peak would bring some kind of relic targeting the Dragon.

Rhaenyra was pregnant and not suitable for the battlefield.

Helena was more suitable to activate this relic.

Sizzle!

Helena took the broken dragon scale without hesitation and cut a hole in her finger.

A trace of blood oozed out and stained the surface of the dragon scale.

Rhaegar secretly said decisively.

"Here you go, brother."

Helena sucked her injured finger and honestly returned the broken dragon scale.

Rhaegar also cut his finger, and the red blood dripped on the dragon scale.

The two different bloods flowed separately, slowly blended together, and quickly penetrated into the broken dragon scale.

The next second, the dragon scale burst into a bright red light.

"Congratulations, the embers of the Fire Peak have been activated, and you have obtained..."

[Dragon Essence]

Level: Legend (Red)

Effect: Increase the growth rate of dragons (only for adult dragons and below)

Evaluation: "The size of dragons continues to grow with age, and one dragon lived to be three hundred years old."

The broken dragon scale transformed and turned into a complete scale covered with strange inscriptions on the surface.

Uncontrolled by Rega, it fell lightly on the top of Helena's head and fell with a clatter.

"Ouch~"

Helena groaned.

Rega looked helpless, looked at Helena with a wrinkled face, and then looked at the bronze scale on his head.

Flipping through the fonts on the system panel.

All I can say is: "Fools have good luck."

"Why did it become like this?"

Helena rubbed her head and took off the bronze scale that hit her head.

Rhaegar felt a little pain in his heart, and told the truth: "Good stuff, feed it to Dreamfire."

The effect column clearly describes it, suitable for dragons below adult dragons.

Glutton is about 90 years old, and Vhagar, who is over 170 years old, is already a real adult dragon.

It is just right to feed Dreamfire, who is of similar age and slightly smaller in size.

Quickly cultivate an adult dragon.
