Marwyn couldn't help but ask, "If that's the case, why bring Lord Jhaben to Summerhall? Wouldn't it be better for him to stay in Asshai?"
"Because he hasn't completed the trial of the Redemption Sanctuary, I don't trust him," Lord Lynd said very directly. "He will certainly be sent to Asshai in the future, but before that, I need to know that he is loyal."
Hearing Lord Lynd's words, Marwyn said nothing more. Although he had not undergone the trial of the Redemption Sanctuary, he knew what these trials meant. In his opinion, Lord Lynd's actions were understandable. After witnessing various experiments in Black Hollow, he felt that Lord Lynd's decision to allow only those who completed the trial to join Black Hollow was incredibly correct. He even actively expressed his willingness to undergo the trial, but unfortunately, both his and Qyburn's bodies were unsuitable for any trials, so they became the only two people in Black Hollow who had not undergone the trials.
The others also expressed that they would arrange personnel to cooperate with the Miracle Merchant Guild and Miracle Fleet's eastward and southward expansion plan. Lord Lynd also told them to immediately contact Halls Redwyne, the Commander of the Miracle Fleet responsible for this matter, and Gorman Setti, the Executive President of the Miracle Merchant Guild, after they returned. Matters concerning mages were directly handed over to Brum, the head of the Mages Association, for coordination.
After everyone withdrew, Lord Lynd did not rest. He immediately mounted his Lava Dragon and flew north, reaching the Wall at the fastest speed, arriving at Icehold where Willas was located.
After landing in the castle courtyard, Lord Lynd walked directly into the passage leading to the central part of the Wall, leaving the Nights Watch outside.
"It seems you have already dealt with Euron," Willas, frozen in the ice, said as if he knew Lord Lynd would come when Lord Lynd arrived at the ice cave.
"Yes, I did deal with him. It was much easier and smoother than expected. Additionally, I also destroyed the city of Styria, and the Blackstone beneath the entire city was suppressed by my power. I think that was your purpose, wasn't it?" Lord Lynd looked at Willas and said with a serious expression, "Aren't you going to give me an explanation?"
Willas did not answer.
"You were once possessed by the Three-Eyed Raven, so you should have acquired the Three-Eyed Raven's Green Seer memories. Therefore, you knew about the Neck and Gods Eye Lake, these two nodes of natural power, and how to easily retrieve the Divine Remains placed within them." Lord Lynd said in a deep voice, "I'm very curious when you started cooperating with Euron? Why did he trust you so much?"
Willas chose to answer this time, calmly saying, "Because all the hints I gave him helped him, and the pressure you brought upon him was too great. In such a situation, he could only choose to trust me."
Lord Lynd said very formally, "Euron is entangled with the Others. You are now cooperating with Euron, so can I assume that you are now also colluding with the Others?"
As he spoke, Lord Lynd's hand also rested on the Banished Knight's Greatsword at his waist.
Willas calmly said, "Everything I do is to prevent the Others from moving south and the Long Night and Eternal Winter."
"I'm giving you a chance to explain." Lord Lynd looked at Willas and said.
Willas showed little emotion, explaining, "the Wall is already damaged. The ancient runes inside have lost their effectiveness. The next time the Long Night comes, the Wall will not be able to withstand the Others moving south."
Lord Lynd immediately shook his head and said, "Impossible! I can see the magical runes and powerful magic contained within the Wall. They couldn't possibly…"
"What you see is just a facade to deceive the Others. In reality, the ancient runes of the Wall were destroyed when the winter horn was last blown. Those who repaired the Wall afterward cleverly used the broken runes to create an illusion." Willas calmly explained, "Actually, you proved that the Wall is ineffective. Do you remember the wight sent to King's Landing? If the Wall's magic still existed, the wight could not have passed through the Wall."
Lord Lynd was stunned by this. He had actually considered the issue of the wight passing through the Wall at the time, but due to the influence of the previous life's series, he remembered that two Night's Watch members who had turned into wights were also transported across the Wall and caused some trouble at Black Castle, so he didn't take it seriously. Now, thinking about it, that incident indeed seemed a bit off.
