Chapter 119 Not a Single One Left Behind
The gray worm's unusual behavior also caught Jorah and the others' attention, and they immediately drew their weapons and looked around warily.
Just as Grey Worm gathered the Unsullied around Daenerys, he suddenly turned around and found that several sons of the harpy, wearing golden harpy helmets, had appeared in the stands behind him.
After they stood up, they brandished their daggers and attacked the arena guards. After killing the guards, they couldn't find a target and began to attack the innocent people watching the match around them.
Seeing the countless golden helmets and panicked crowds suddenly appearing on the circular stands, Daenerys was horrified. She hadn't expected that after the last riot and purge, so many Banshee's Children would still be involved in this attack in Meereen.
Seeing the Banshee's Sons charging towards her after slaughtering those around them, Daenerys couldn't help but feel grateful that the Unsullied had received the news a few minutes in advance.
The Grey Worm gathered a large number of Unsullied and formed a defensive circle around Daenerys and the others; otherwise, the Banshee's Sons might have already reached them.
"Come with me!"
Just as Daenerys and the others were wondering where to run, Daario shouted and jumped down from the high stands, reaching out to catch Daenerys and the others who were being helped down by Jorah and the others.
They ran towards the passageway through which the competitors entered and exited the arena, but were blocked by the Banshee's Sons who rushed out as soon as they reached the entrance, forcing them to retreat back into the arena.
As the Banshee's Child charged toward the arena, everyone felt a sense of despair.
For Daenerys's viewing of the match, Grey Worm and Jorah specially arranged for a thousand Unsullied guards and a thousand recruits, but the number of Banshee's Sons was even greater.
They killed the guards around them and converged on the center of the arena. Some of the Banshee's Sons even broke through the defensive circle formed by the Unsullied and the new recruits and charged towards Daenerys and her companions.
However, they were quickly dealt with by Jorah and his men after they rushed in, and even Iron Lady Yara killed two of them.
Jorah and the others will protect Daenerys while also assisting the defensive perimeter in eliminating enemies.
But while they killed many people, the number of the Banshee's children was even greater. They couldn't kill them all, and their numbers kept increasing. Jorah and his men had already been injured to varying degrees.
As the number of Banshee's Children gathered, Daenerys and Tyrion couldn't help but reminisce about the scene during the last riot when Drogon instantly attacked hundreds of Banshee's Children.
Unfortunately, Drogon was recovering from his injuries, and even the other two dragons were protecting him; otherwise, the banshee's son wouldn't have been able to act so arrogantly!
Those who thought of Drogon immediately realized why the harpies dared to launch this attack: it was because Drogon and his three dragons were not in Meereen, which allowed them to seize this opportunity.
Several gazes turned to Finance Minister Sizdala, who had extended the invitation, wondering if he was aware of the attack.
This separated Daenerys from him and also created distance between them.
Hitzdala noticed the strange looks people were giving him and quickly protested, "Your Majesty, I really know nothing about this! Please believe me."
Daenerys did not respond to Hizdara's explanation; she did not know how to answer, nor was this a good time to argue about it.
The defensive perimeter was gradually compressed, and Jorah and Barristan, along with other strong individuals, stood back-to-back, protecting Daenerys and Tyrion in the center, while fiercely fighting off the Banshee's Son who broke through the defensive perimeter.
hold head high!
Just when everyone was feeling hopeless, a high-pitched dragon roar that resounded throughout the entire Meereen Forest came from the east.
A massive black shadow with a wingspan of over sixty meters almost blocked out half the sunlight in the arena, pressing down towards the center.
The one flying over was none other than the black dragon Drogon. He had originally planned to come earlier just in case, but when he woke up in the morning and found that his injuries were almost completely healed, he was delayed a little longer.
Unexpectedly, a warning sign appeared on the way here, so he hurriedly left Rego and Viserion behind and flew over first. He did not expect that the harpy would actually rise from the ashes and launch such a large-scale attack.
After landing, Drogon spewed a mouthful of black and red dragon flame at the Banshee's Son outside the defensive perimeter. The person hit by the flame turned to ashes before he could even scream.
After this transformation, Drogon's dragonfire underwent a qualitative change, transforming from its previous black and yellow hue to a black and red color, and its temperature became several times higher than before.
Human flesh and blood are burned into a pile of black ash within seconds, unlike before when they only turned into charcoal.
When Drogon landed, not only was the Banshee's son startled, but Daenerys's ministers were also taken aback.
Zhuogeng had changed so much that they didn't recognize him at first glance, thinking that a huge four-legged black dragon had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
They had never heard of a four-legged dragon, and they couldn't even imagine what Drogon looked like now.
Not only did it have two more legs than before, but its entire body had also changed drastically. Both its scales and skin were a dark red color, with a shimmering luster between the scales, and the red light seemed to be shining through its body.
The enormous dragon head, with its curved horns and thick neck fins, is quite majestic. The muscles at the base of the wings are bulging, and the lines are perfect. The whole dragon is both powerful and dignified, and it also gives people a metallic feel.
Upon seeing Zhuo Geng land, the Banshee's Son was stunned for a moment before reacting. Apart from those who had been hit by the dragon's flames, no one else dared to approach. They picked up a spear from the ground and threw it at Zhuo Geng.
The spears struck Zhuo Geng with a clanging sound, then fell off as if they had hit metal.
Seeing that their spears, which they had thrown with all their might, had failed to harm Drogon at all, the surrounding Banshee children dared not linger any longer. They threw down their spears and ran away into the distance, fearing that they would be burned by the dragon's flames.
Just as Drogon burned the Banshee's Son, who was outside the defensive perimeter, he heard the dragon roars from Rhego and Viserion.
After the two dragons landed, Drogon instructed them to protect Daenerys, then transformed into his juvenile form with a whoosh and charged toward a banshee's son wearing a golden helmet.
It pierced straight through his chest, leaving a fist-sized hole. After killing one of the banshee's sons, Zhuo Geng flew to the next one and pierced through him again.
This time he showed no mercy, unlike last time when he only severed their tendons in the hands and/or feet, rendering them incapable of fighting, and left them for Daenerys's men to interrogate.
Zhuo Geng never expected that after the last purge, the harpy would dare to launch another attack.
Moreover, the scale and number of people involved were even larger than last time. Since they were not afraid of death, he would grant their wish and leave no survivors.
He couldn't even imagine the consequences if the tournament had been held two days earlier, or if he hadn't known that Daenerys was watching.
The Banshee's children, who were closest to Drogon, had long lost their will to fight. Faced with Drogon, who was impervious to blades and spears and whose killing power was terrifying, they only wanted to escape as quickly as possible.
The Banshee's Son, who was some distance away from Drogon, paused for a moment after seeing him, then continued her pursuit of the fleeing arena spectators.
Zhuo Geng spotted the Banshee's children who were wreaking havoc and flew toward them. Wherever he passed, the Banshee's children were either pierced through the chest, blown off the head, or had other fatal parts pierced through, leaving none alive.
