Game of Thrones: The Red Dragon Lord.

Chapter 59: Belleris's Dragon's Lair

Leaving some Blood Dragon Guards to look after the horses, Gavin led the other Blood Dragon Guards into the huge building. The interior was also severely damaged, with stones scattered all over the ground, and occasionally broken huge iron chains and damaged weapons could be seen. But the overall shape was still intact, and the previous layout and structure could be vaguely distinguished.

As he walked and explored slowly inside, Gavin saw some remaining murals. Although the colors of the murals had faded for the most part, the general content could still be seen.

It depicts some extremely fierce dragon fighting scenes, with giant dragons tumbling in the air, spewing flames, and the battle is thrilling.

Through these remaining murals, Gavin could tell that this was a fight between Bellerys and other dragons. Obviously, this painting recorded how the Bellerys family gained absolute power in the internal struggles of Valyria.

Gavin continued to walk inside until he was blocked by the collapsed ruins in front of him. Countless stones piled together, tightly blocking the road.

Gavin thought about it for a while and determined a general direction based on the records. The Blood Dragon Guards immediately stepped forward and dug hard.

Finally, after clearing a portion of the rubble, a passage that had not yet completely collapsed was revealed. Gavin and his party walked in without hesitation, but the passage was soon blocked again.

With no other options, they could only start digging in the approximate direction. In this way, they dug all the way and moved forward all the way.

There was even a serious collapse that almost occurred along the way, with rubble rolling down and dust flying everywhere.

Finally, Gavin found the stone door with the emblem of the Belleris family painted on it behind the base of the statue, which was the same pattern as the one on Gavin's dragon bone pendant.

Under the tremendous force of the Blood Dragon Guard, the stone door was slowly pushed open, and a spiral staircase built on the stone wall appeared in front of Gavin.

Gavin walked down the stairs, which looked like a winding giant python. The light of the torch illuminated the cave, and the light and shadows intertwined. The unevenness of the stone wall made the shadows change unpredictably, as if performing a mysterious dance.

Gavin walked carefully, with each step accompanied by light footsteps and panting. As they continued to go down, the light gradually increased, and when they reached the bottom, there was gradually a little light.

Afterwards, Gavin and his companions entered an extremely empty cave. Looking up, they saw a huge volcanic fissure appearing above their heads.

Through the crack they could see the gloomy grey sky outside. It was obvious that they had entered the interior of the volcano, and the crater above was also the passage for dragons to enter and exit.

Continuing to move deeper, as he went deeper into the dragon's cave, Gavin felt the temperature around him slowly rising, and the unknown corrosive energy gradually weakened. After walking along a road that meandered downward, he came to the bottom.

The temperature here is extremely high, and the heat is overwhelming, but at this moment Gavin finds that the unknown energy that had been corroding him before has completely disappeared.

According to the diary, this is the bottom of the volcano. There is magma further ahead, and that is where the treasure house set up by Belleris' family is located.

Finally, after passing through a huge cave, Gavin arrived at the lava lake, where a lake formed by lava was boiling, rolling with hot waves, and making a "gurgling" sound. There were many huge caves around the lava lake, which were bottomless.

In the center of the magma, a huge dragon skull as big as a sailboat lies across the magma like a towering island. The huge dragon head is raised high, and although it has no breath of life, it still exudes majesty and mystery.

There were several huge stone tablets at the entrance of the cave, and Gavin walked towards them. The stone tablets were ancient and simple, and the entire body was carved from an unknown blood-red stone. The High Valyrian words engraved on them seemed to tell the vicissitudes of time. Gavin read them carefully and quickly sorted out the information inside.

It contains records of the Belleris family establishing a dragon lair here, as well as the family's techniques for hatching and training dragons.

The strongest dragon in the family, Belleris, died here. Since then, when it grew old, it often lived in the magma until it died of old age in the magma, leaving only its head floating on the surface of the magma.

As Belleris died, his flesh and blood merged into the magma. The family's fire sorcerers discovered that the magma below had undergone tremendous changes. Placing dragon eggs here can preserve and enhance the vitality of the dragon eggs. Even dead eggs that cannot be hatched can be slowly restored by placing them here.

So the fire sorcerers of House Belleris transformed this place and built a secret dragon cave to store dragon eggs and hatch baby dragons.

Not far from the stone tablet, there was a huge stone door embedded in a natural cave. Gavin guessed that this was where the treasure house was.

He pushed the door open and walked in, only to see countless damaged wooden boxes with gold scattered inside, and some filled with various gems that were constantly shining with brilliant light.

There was a collapsed bookshelf in the center of the treasure house, which contained some books. Gaben wanted to flip through them, but the books turned into ashes with a slight touch. Apparently, the high temperature environment here and the long hundreds of years had completely destroyed the knowledge.

After searching for a long time, Gavin finally found some jewelry made of Valyrian steel, and the only weapon was a dagger.

Then he found a dragon bone bow in the corner. Gavin was no longer so eager for the dragon bone bow. He had obtained a lot of dragon bones over the years. The bow body made from it could indeed withstand the burning of the flaming arrows, but the bowstring could not. He had tried many materials but could not do it.

For this reason, he still uses wooden bows as disposable items, and thinks that wooden bows are more cost-effective than dragon bone bows.

Thinking of this, Gavin picked up the dragon bone bow and examined it carefully. Seeing that the bowstring was made of animal tendons, he felt a little excited.

He began to experiment nervously, and the flaming arrow appeared out of thin air on the bow, with the bowstring intact. Gavin couldn't help laughing. This bow was simply a magical weapon to him.

Gavin, extremely excited, handed the dragon bone bow to the Blood Dragon Guard beside him, and searched carefully for a long time, leaving no corner untouched, but in the end, he made no new discoveries.

In desperation, Gavin went out to see the skull of Belleris in the center of the magma, but when he arrived at the edge of the magma, Gavin was in trouble.

Looking at the boiling magma, he was hesitant, not knowing how to get to the dragon bone island in the center.

Although he has the ability to resist fire, he is not sure whether he can withstand the high temperature of magma.

After hesitating for a long time, Gavin made up his mind and gently put his hand into the lava. He felt it was quite hot, but he could barely bear it.
