Bravos, the city where the Iron Vault is located, is not on Westeros Road, but is across the sea from it. This famous free trade city is very rich, and the Iron Vault is its money bag. The kings of Westeros often borrow from the Iron Vault to spend the desolate years or improve their military equipment. The Iron Vault's motto is "not to be detained", but they do not only have gold coins, but also accept repayments in various ways, from cattle, sheep, rice, flour, and even slaves. Backed by the Trade City, these "payments" can always be quickly cashed in and become the huge profit of the Iron Vault.

The iron vault does not have an armed force. If it encounters a king who is not repaid, it will immediately turn to support its enemies. If this king is really good, it will use money to create enemies and use it to recover its investment. Therefore, although it did not participate in the war in Westeros, its power of money is also entangled with these consecutive wars.

Westeros’ biggest debtor is the royal family, Joffrey Baratheon. This is a headache-inducing king, combining stupidity, madness, cruelty and self-doing. Iron Vault has always been doubtful about whether the royal family’s loan can be recovered.

So Iron Vault did something. When one of Joffrey Baratheon's enemies, his uncle Stannis Baratheon, borrowed money from Iron Vault, Iron Vault agreed and gave him a huge amount of funds to arm himself, so that he could regain his previous failure and charge towards the throne again!

Zhao Mai didn't care who would become king, but he had to pay attention to Stannis Baratheon, because after borrowing money, he did not sail to the capital, but went north to the Great Wall of Desperate! Stannis was a superstitious person and cared about the advice of Melisandre, the "daughter of Fire" around him. When his beautiful red robe priestess and Prime Minister Davos Sheeworth pointed out to him at the same time "a terrible threat from the north", Stannis, who believed he was King Westeros and the protector, decided to put the throne aside first and "go to save all subjects."

Without Stannis' army, the Night Watch would be defeated by the "free people" army of the King of the Great Wall of Mars Red, and all the Night Watch would not survive. Without the Night Watch, the Great Wall of Desperateness would no longer be a "desperateness". The White Walkers could climb south without any obstacles and sweep across the entire Westeros. If that happens, the Westeros would really collapse.

Zhao Mai only took half a minute to figure out the relationship between this, so the key is, "Have Stannis got the money?" He looked at Liu Su who was carrying the ambulance, and felt that he had something to ask him, so he said to Zhong Jianbai: "Director Zhong, is there any lights in the hospital that can bask in the sun? I was frozen outside the border before."

Zhong Jian paused for a moment, and then he understood what Zhao Mai meant: "Yes, just go with Captain Liu. Have you brought your badge with you? It doesn't matter if you don't, just be with Team Liu."

"Hehe, thank you." Zhao Mai waved his hand, and jumped into the ambulance with the flower pot on his back, sitting beside Zhao Mai honestly. Even though the doctor was reluctant, there was no good idea, so he had to let the driver drive as soon as possible.

"Captain Liu, how did you destroy the Iron Vault? Did Stannis borrow money?"

"I don't understand the economy at all. That's Zhong Jixiu's expertise. You don't have to ask Xu Yaning, nor do she understand. Although what Zhong Jixiu did is very sad, his ability is indeed very strong. I remember when the bank went bankrupt and encountered a run, Stannis had just arrived at Bravos, so he probably couldn't get the money."

"That is, he has no funds to form a large army and cannot go north to help the night watchmen resist the savages?" Zhao Mai sighed: "So, is it helpless?"

"If the Night Watcher is defeated, or if Jon Snow is completely dead, then it will be done." Liu Su moved his neck slightly and turned his head to look at Zhao Mai with difficulty: "I didn't expect that the world was so unstable, and I didn't figure out what Zhong Jixiu did. If you don't know yourself or your enemy, you will lose every battle. This is a lesson!"

"Is there any way to remedy?" Zhao Mai asked.

"I don't know, and I don't recommend you go there again. If the world collapses, it may not always be able to evacuate. I knew that one person didn't have time and was beaten up with a certain planet. This time, it was a problem that a relevant ministries and commissions had a certain amount of compensation, so you will definitely compensate you, and there is no need to take risks again. And, thank you for saving us. Even if we don't know what happened later, we know that if it weren't for you, we would have been abandoned."

"Actually, Zhong Chi-soo kept asking me to send you back, and then lied that I had killed him, and sent him to another world. He said that there was the origin of magic, and everything was possible. Do you know where that was?"

"Thank you, I felt a little better when I heard that he was not going to kill us in the end. I have only heard rumors about the origin of magic, and there is no definite information, but you can ask the old man." His eyes slanted and he glanced at the doctor who was in the car.

I got it. Zhao Mai snapped his fingers, and the doctor's eyes were stunned, his head tilted and he fell asleep.

"Strong! I now know that Zhong Chixiu must be defeated by you. I have seen him interact with the Thousand Faces and the Male Witch before, but I believe him that it is an indispensable part of the plan. He is quite proud in his heart, and he must be convinced if he can surrender properly." Captain Liu lowered his voice and said, "The information that is public and confident is that some time and events are very critical to specific abilities and are protected by key protection. For example, the birth of the Three Pure Land, such as the Lich War, the Conquest of the Gods and Journey to the West. These periods are related to the old man, so without his approval, no one can go, even if other transcendents are the same. Do you understand?"

"I understand that the self-protection mechanism is the basis."

"Magic is also a powerful system of power, but what does magic originate from? Although we are in the East, many people have specialized in this. Later, they found that although magic is powerful, there is no such person as an old man. In other words, its origin is not protected by the transcendent, and it should be a place to reach. On the one hand, everyone believes that the transcendents may appear again in the magic branch, so they are all fighting; on the other hand, some people stubbornly believe that the trio is the transcendents in magic, so the so-called origins that can be found now are all deceitful."

"I believe more in the latter. Because all transcendents are not bound by time. Even if they appear tens of thousands of years later, they actually existed tens of thousands of years ago. But this will form a paradox, that is, all transcendents have been and have completely emerged, and new things cannot appear. I can't understand them anyway. The old man is so secretive about this issue, but he just can't understand them if he can't understand them, and he can't explain them to us."

"Go back to what I know. Once I went to find Zhong Chixiu, and his room was not closed, so I went in. Many people are studying the origin of magic as a topic, and I saw that there is a time and coordinate in his notes. I know you can grab the order, so I can now make a request for you and you have to receive it immediately. I will cancel it, but you can record it. By the way, I need some gold coins."

Zhao Mai took out his gold coins and stuffed them into Liu Su's palm, then quickly received the order and recorded the address. "How could it be there? Isn't it possible?" Zhao Mai was a little stunned, but Liu Su said that this was the most reliable thing he knew.
