Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 145 144. The sieve-like Red Castle

A very foul smell spread from the walls of King's Landing.

That's the stink of half a million people piling up without sewer planning.

There is no need to say that it is a biological weapon. Lan En can feel these smells keenly, but whether it is a demon hunter or a space warrior, these are human-enhanced units dedicated to fighting.

Demon hunters inevitably have to face monsters living in garbage or feces, and space warriors can breathe most of the poisonous gases in the universe directly with their bodies.

The odor can affect their mood, but it is impossible to say that it affects their physiological reactions.

"King's Landing has been like this not long after it was built, but you don't have to worry. We will live in the Red Keep, which is located on the hills and the stench cannot reach high places. In King's Landing, if you want to live a decent life, you have to go High-end real estate.”

Lan En is now riding side by side with Ed, and the Duke of the North is explaining the capital to the young people.

This seemingly cold-hearted man is actually quite easy to talk to.

"Thank you."

Lan En's eyes left the book for a moment, and he nodded slightly to Eddard Stark.

The Duke of the North opened his mouth slightly and looked at the gorgeous silver hair that was as smooth as a waterfall, sliding down from the young man's delicate profile.

The innate ceremonial temperament of the Emperor's Children made Lan En seem quite graceful even if he just nodded.

Is this guy really not a Targaryen?

Ed even began to doubt his own judgment in his heart.

But then, Lan En started reading again, and Ed came back to his senses.

The Duke of the North shook his head.

The Targaryen family is finished. Even if there are descendants, they are just two children across the narrow sea. They don't even have the ability to receive the education that a royal family should have.

How can one cultivate such a character?

The convoy entered King's Landing and walked all the way to the palace complex at the highest point of the city.

There is the Red Fort, named after the large red roof on the white stone walls.

Most of the people in the convoy began to have a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere because they returned to King's Landing.

Alia and her sister were happy because they were in a new place.

The guards in the north became nervous because of the huge population of this city.

The escorts are most afraid of crowds.

Lan En flexibly squeezed his position from the edge of the convoy into the middle.

He had just seen someone pouring a chamber pot from a second-story window into the street.

The yellow, green, and green liquids and solids hit the ground, splashing on the legs of the passing horses and the knight's cloak.

"Bang bang, Alia."

Lane knocked on the window of the carriage where the little girl and her sister were.

The wooden window opened with a bang, revealing two little red faces.

Arya was because of her excitement, and the beautiful girl with long red hair in a bun next to her, Sansa Stark, was because of Lan En's face.

"Watch Nymeria and Lady. You definitely don't want them to jump on you after having fun on the street."

"If they jump on you, I won't let you come within two meters of me all day long."

Lan En gave Aria serious instructions.

The little girl suddenly rolled her eyes in boredom.

"I see!"

~~~~~~

In front of the Prime Minister's Tower in the Red Castle, the Duke of the North began to prepare to unload and move.

Lan En didn't bring his huge Oren coins with him when he came here. Here he only has a dozen Oren coins with him.

Although it is also a gold coin, it is different from the local gold dragon coin in both shape and gold content. It is a bit difficult to sell it and you will still lose money.

Ed himself agreed to Alia's promise to collect exotic animal and plant materials for Lan En.

Hearing that he had no work to do at this time, he simply hired Lan En as a member of the escort team.

It's hard to find single mercenaries who are good at fighting and friendly.

Lan En is not too worried that he will miss the stable period of turbulence in the celestial sphere intersection.

Not to mention that there is a lady in the lake helping out there, just judging from Berengar's experience.

A powerful flying predator, its living range is estimated to be measured in square kilometers.

Even though it can be returned to its own world, it can be seen that the "repatriation" force of the celestial sphere intersection rift is quite strong.

All he has to do is go to the original location in a few months and check it out.

"Lan En! Come and help!"

Guard captain Jory Kelso greeted Lan En who had just dismounted.

Lan En is not pretentious. When you become someone's bodyguard, you have to work.

He stepped forward and bent down to grab the fixed rope. He picked up the two heavy wooden boxes one by one and walked towards the Prime Minister's Tower.

Jory Kelso, also carrying a large sack on his shoulders, walked beside Lan.

"Is it my imagination? I always feel like you like to ask me to do a little favor. For example, pass a cup or something."

Carrying two large wooden boxes up the stairs, Lan En spoke to the guard captain behind him while breathing steadily.

Jory Kelso laughed and almost choked while carrying his things upstairs.

"Haha-huh, cough, of course not."

"why?"

"You're more of a noble than many nobles I've met, Lan. So it's actually quite cool to have you help."

Lan En smacked his lips and chuckled.

"Fine."

This guy is not an annoying person. He always shows a very satisfied expression after Lan En helps him with a little help, and this kind of frank and generous character is also very interesting.

The process of moving into Prime Minister's Tower is not cumbersome.

Ed didn't bring much furniture, and the Prime Minister's Tower itself had very complete equipment.

So after Lan En went upstairs to place the boxes, he could already see Alia and Nymeria starting to play in the tower.

"By the way, where has the Prime Minister gone?"

Lan tilted his head and asked Qiao Li.

"There are many affairs in the kingdom, and the former prime minister died in a hurry. Your Excellency went to the Royal Council as soon as he arrived. I heard that His Majesty the King is planning to hold a grand martial arts tournament in order to celebrate your appointment as Prime Minister."

Having said this, Qiao Li lowered his voice and approached Lan En, looking well-informed.

"I heard that the winner's prize can be tens of thousands of gold dragons! It's enough to arm a small knights!"

Lan En frowned slightly. The first thing that seemed unusual was not the bonus share, but the spread of the news.

"We have just entered King's Landing, and we have only been in the Red Keep for less than three hours. Where did you get the news?"

Qiao Li was immediately stopped by the question. When he thought about it, he couldn't even remember where he heard it from.

It just felt like a lot of people were talking about it along the way.

Lan En knew what was going on as soon as he saw his expression.

The imperial meeting is still in session, but one of the decisions has already been announced. Isn’t this Red Castle leaky like a sieve?

This could not be a notice for the king to bypass the royal council. If it were, Robert's character would have to tell the whole city openly.

"Tsk tsk tsk"

Lan En shook his head slightly.

"Now I'm a little doubtful whether Ed can outplay the people in this city with his personality."
