Game of Thrones: Summoning the Fourth Calamity

Chapter 72: The Information Broker

The region of G. Doho has always been considered by the people of Braavos as fish on their own chopping board.

The numerous wars that occurred with Pentos were all due to Pentos' attempts to seize control of the G. Doho region.

In short, anyone who lays their hands in Gordoho will be dealt with by the Braavos people—they'll chop off their hands and feet!

Braavos is just that domineering. Its unparalleled warship fleet, representing military might, and its iron treasury, representing wealth, are the foundation of Braavos's domineering confidence.

"It is said that Viserys' army is quite skilled in battle and fearless in fighting. Some cowards even say that their army can be resurrected. Haha, that's the funniest joke I've ever heard, even more exaggerated than what those bards say."

Aquaman Fredo paced back and forth, with Quello following closely behind him.

"Quero." Frego turned around and looked at his most trusted guard.

"I am here."

Kuiro stood with his hands at his sides, awaiting orders.

"Although we must punish His Majesty the Dragon who harbors ambitions toward Essos, every person in Braavos is a treasure and should not be easily lost."

You shall immediately send men to Loras and inform the three princes of Loras.

I'll tell them I'll persuade the Iron Bank to give them a satisfactory loan, but on the condition that they send at least four thousand soldiers to join us in punishing the Targaryens.

Aquaman Fredo's voice sounded weak; it seemed that speaking such a long sentence in one breath was too much for the recently ill Aquaman to handle.

Loras is the smallest, poorest, least populated, and most backward of the nine major trading city-states, and it also has close commercial ties with Braavos.

King Freygo was convinced that the three princes of Rosas would absolutely not refuse his offer of the Iron Bank.

"Yes, sir!"

Quero never spoke after the Sea King gave an order, and immediately nodded and withdrew.

Are you sure you heard that?

Outside the Sea King's palace, two servants were whispering to each other.

"That's right, His Highness the Sea King said it himself. He will send an envoy to Loras and request that they send at least four thousand troops," the short attendant replied.

"How many men will Braavos send?" the tall servant asked.

"I don't know, the Sea King didn't say, but I imagine there will be many." The short attendant shook his head.

"Take this, it's yours. I hope to get more information in the future." The tall attendant didn't say anything more when he saw this. He looked around and, seeing that no one was paying attention, took out a money pouch from his pocket and handed it to the other person.

The short man took the money bag, opened it, and looked inside. A smile appeared on his somewhat fearful face. He then nodded, turned around, and quickly left.

The tall attendant also quickly disappeared from the spot.

In a small alley in Braavos.

The tall servant had already changed into a different outfit and had just entered the alley when he saw the person waiting for him.

"How is it? Is it some important intelligence?" the man asked anxiously.

"Brother, we've done a great job!"

The tall attendant removed his hood, and the game ID "King of Reincarnation" on his head gleamed in the other's eyes.

Their identities are self-evident; they are the players known as the Fourth Calamity.

"Big news?" The player with the game ID "Stealing Xiao Qiao's Jiang Gan" also showed joy upon hearing this.

Although two pioneers, Crescent Moon and Iron Man, opened the door to a new world for many players, there are also groups of players who are not interested in it, such as members of the intelligence department of the secret police.

The head of the intelligence department, Caramel Cotton, believes that following others' paths will not prove the value of our secret police.

So, after most players evacuated the conquered Godoho region, the players from the Secret Police Intelligence Division not only did not choose to evacuate, but went a step further and established an intelligence station in Braavos.

Although the players learned about intelligence gathering and other things from TV dramas, they could never be truly professional, but they still managed to build it up, and it looked quite professional.

After receiving the report of "calling a mouse a duck," Viserys generously provided a sum of money for the operation, hoping to gather some intelligence on Braavos.

Unexpectedly, the intelligence department was really effective, using funds to develop informants directly in the power center of Braavos, the Neptune's Palace.

It came in handy today.

After [King of Reincarnation] recounted the information in detail, [Jiang Gan, who stole Xiao Qiao] excitedly clenched his fist and exclaimed:

"Very good!"

"Alright, you should report this news to the section chief immediately!" Jiang Gan said in a low voice.

"Okay, what about you, brother?" [King of Wheels] nodded in response, then looked at the other person and asked.

"Me? I'm going to do something big!" Jiang Qian's eyes gleamed, as if he were imagining a stunningly beautiful woman stripping naked.

"Do something big? What big thing?" [King of Wheels] was completely baffled. Wasn't this firsthand intelligence we obtained considered a big deal in our bureau?

"I... sigh, never mind, you wouldn't understand even if I told you. You should hurry up and report the situation to the section chief, or it will be too late. I'll be going now!"

Jiang Gan hesitated, but seeing the other party's bewildered expression, he didn't say anything more. After giving a few instructions, he turned and disappeared into the darkness.

After Jiang Gan left, [King of Wheels] saw that no one was around, so he leaned against the corner of the wall and logged off.

Blue Star.

Wheel King: Big Brother, are you there? Do you need any information? Get back to me if you see this!

Xu Shan saw a message flash on her phone and opened it to read it.

His father fell ill today, and he had to stay at the hospital to take care of him, so he was unusually not online.

Upon seeing that the visitor was a player from the Secret Police, Xu Shan quickly replied:

"What information, bro?"

Wheel King: [Game Audio Recording]

Xu Shan opened the audio and listened, his expression changing accordingly.

Nine Thousand Years Old: Brother, I want this intelligence. How much are you planning to sell it for?

King of the Wheels: Brother, I'm selling honestly. Do you think three thousand is a good price?

Li Dao's hand trembled slightly as he held his phone. This was the first time he had ever made money through games. Thinking of his wife's attitude towards his nightly gaming, a smile crept onto Li Dao's lips.

Hmph, you old hag, just you wait. This time it's over, let's see if you still dare to yell at me! You dare call me a fool? You're the fool!

The screen lit up briefly.

Li Dao subconsciously rolled over in bed, afraid of waking the tigress next to him.

Nine Thousand Years Old: Deal.

Nine Thousand Years Old: [Red Envelope]

Li Dao was stunned. So quick to agree? Then he realized: Damn it, you took too little!

Although he realized his mistake, he couldn't go back on his word, since he was hoping to cooperate with them more in the future; killing the goose that lays the golden eggs was not a good idea.

He immediately accepted the red envelope, and the other party replied that the price was negotiable if there was any more information, and then said nothing more.

On the other side, Xu Shan, looking excited, tiptoed onto the cot and put on his gaming helmet.
