Chapter 38 Others Search Team

Tyrion is right, Igor is really unhappy right now Now, most of the excitement when I learned that I could leave the Wall a moment ago was extinguished. I was thinking about how to complete this mission, and I lost the interest in laughing, cursing, and amusing. While returning to the room, Tyrion and Tyrion talked about the schedule for leaving Wall. Arrangements and other matters, even the steps have become a little heavy.

A tall, ugly Night's Watch with a big bag on its head caught Igor's attention.

"Other, what did you get?"

"Food, Lord Benjen has decided to head north tomorrow morning in search of Waymar Royce, wildling, and whatever else—if it exists. If so." The older Ranger stopped and looked Igor up and down with his load, as if seeing him for the first time: "hmph, Others killer, now a forage collector again. Go to King's Landing and enjoy yourself, but Are you happy?"

"You wouldn't have guessed how many missions I went with." Igor shook his head with a forced smile, not to mention an outsider like Tyrion, in fact, even the black clothed brothers, There are still a lot of people who don't believe in the existence of the Others, thinking that the Chief Ranger and the Lord Commander are crazy to believe the nonsense of the three deserters. But now that Benjen has made it clear to him, there is no need to hide anything: "Of course, compared to the danger of going to the Others, it is indeed a beauty... A special weapon for dealing with Others. How are you preparing?"

"Valyria steel weapons, Lord Commander has one in the entire Castle Black, Benjen refused the commander's kindness to borrow him, but Obsidian got some and made three Dragonglass Spearheads, a dozen Dragonglass arrows, if you don't lie about the number of Others, they should be enough."

"I can only guarantee that I have seen five, but there are only five Others in the world. , they must be like princes and lords, they usually spread out, in groups of three and two beyond the wall, harvesting the lives of small stocks of wildlings everywhere, robbing wildling babies to replenish their dead army. Wait until Haunted Forest. Without a single living wildling, strong enough to attack the Wall, they will gather together."

Igor temporarily put aside his thoughts about the mission and became serious. In his position, as a Ranger...maybe now a multi-functional affairs officer, in short, as a Night's Watch, he certainly hopes that his comrades will be safe and smooth. Even if it's just out of personal considerations, the loss and fiasco of Night's Watch Legion means that oneself is forced to recall or be forced to raise more supplies and increase the probability of manpower.

In a word, the interests of Night's Watch are his interests now.

"There are still some things I must warn, Others are not rare beasts, they are wise Magic beings, my killing one of them must have caused the alertness of the remaining Others, although you have brought Obsidian weapons, but still have to be careful."

Other yawned: "You can tell Benjen these words, I'm a soldier, whatever the commander says, no matter how busy it is."

"I've already told him, but the more people know about this kind of thing, the better." Igor was still a little worried: "Also, remember, if someone sacrifices or lives If you encounter a corpse, you must burn it... Also, fire can deal with ghouls, but it can't kill Others."

"I see, my brain is not good, no matter how much you say, I can't remember, Let's go." The tall ranger was a little irritated by his nagging, waved his hand, and walked past him without looking back with his bag on his back.

"I'm used to your succinct and succinct words. I never expected to see such a long-winded side of you." Tyrion watched the brawny man rangers leave, some He couldn't help laughing: "You made it so real, I almost believed that Others really existed."

Igor also smiled helplessly, not intending to convince Tyrion to believe in the existence of Others.

No matter how many reasons and excuses there are, although he is an outsider, he is the world Night's Watch member at this moment. Taking advantage of the amount of information that others can't have, plus lies, he is about to stay out of danger.

Benjen will take seven elite rangers, including Will, to the north to find evidence of the reappearance of human natural enemies... Seven, all of them are heroes of one hundred in a hundred, but there is no Valyria steel weapon. Under the circumstance, facing the enemy who has absolute physical fitness, weapons and means advantages, and has taken precautions, even if equipped with obsidian weapons, it is still a lamb in a tiger's den, nine deaths and still alive.

oneself would have been part of the line, but stepped back at the last minute and threw the responsibility of oneself onto someone else - if Benjen had planned to have both oneself and Will lead the way , then the departure of oneself is to increase the danger faced by the remaining eight people by one-ninth; if Benjen temporarily chooses Will as a replacement because of the absence of oneself, then oneself is to live in the same house as oneself. The soldiers in the same team that Tari got along with day and night became a scapegoat.

There is no deep friendship between him and Will, and even without oneself, Will would have died...but every time I think of someone else taking mortal danger for oneself, Igor's heart still bears it Unceasingly, he sighed quietly, resisting the urge to stay and participate in this mission.

"What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I'm probably an honest person." Igor tried to make oneself's tone easier, the team of Rangers starting tomorrow is very large The probability is Went but never returned, but this will only be like a comrade-in-arms who cursed oneself. Having experienced the lesson of Bran's fall from the building, he already understands that there are some things he can't change until he has enough status and right to speak. "I can finally leave, but I'm a little reluctant..."

Tyrion looked at him with some surprise: "If I remember correctly, you were arrested as a strong man."

"Yes, but I wasn't caught by Night's Watch." Igor shook his head, "After I joined the Legion, I enjoyed the same treatment as everyone else, including food and housing, and a little allowance for pocket expenses... Although the conditions are not good, after all It's equality. I was exiled here by a rogue nobleman whose name I don't even know, but Night's Watch didn't treat me badly, you know what I mean."

"Yes, you want to say that you don't Don't hate Night's Watch."

Igor nods and doesn't speak. Seeing that his former comrades were preparing for tomorrow's patrols, and the troubles and headaches of being assigned a bunch of missions were swept away, he realized that although he encountered difficulties, even though there were a lot of impossible missions to complete, he would not be able to do anything with that team. How lucky is oneself compared to the rangers who went north out of the Wall to find Others! Not only that, from Wall to King's Landing back and forth at least three months, in terms of time, oneself not only avoided Benjen's patrol, if Mormont is still stubbornly preparing to go on a Ranger expedition to find the missing Benjen, he will have the next big time. Crisis is also avoided - compared to the safety of life, what is the pressure of several complicated missions?
He just fooled Jon Snow with a piece of chicken soup, but now, he feels that oneself needs chicken soup too.

Which sentence is more appropriate?
Yes - if you don't force oneself, you will never know how good oneself is.

Before crossing, the conditions created by a powerful country and a pair of hard-working parents for oneself were too favorable, so that he could live well without hard work, and after crossing over, the identity of Night's Watch And equal treatment made it impossible for him to do well...so much so that he never knew what it was like to go all out to do something.

Now, the easy days are over, and his future will be decided by his oneself. As a material recruiter, King's Landing and Crownlands recruiter, Dragonglass mining Chief-In-Charge and Night's Watch ambassador, Igor decided to challenge himself. Nothing is unachievable!
