A Western fantasy journey that began with Game of Thrones - Chapter 345 The so-called destruction
The wind was still biting in the snow-covered forest, making Renly’s robes rustle, but at this time, his mood was no longer as uneasy as before.
It was obvious that the man in front of him was an enemy, or that he was hostile to Renly, but the expression of this hostility was not physical action, but an attempt to trap Renly here.
“I can sense that a more serious damage is about to be born from you.” The old man said: “So I worked hard to build this shield, and I sincerely hope that it will be stronger.”
Renly raised an eyebrow.
Obviously, the shield the other party mentioned was not a real shield, but the copy world in front of him. At the same time, the words he said made Renly unconsciously think of his own “sublimation”.
Is sublimation a disaster?
Renly didn’t know, but he knew that the disaster facing the Seven Kingdoms at this time was related to the man in front of him, so he asked: “What kind of destruction is more serious than the resurrection of the White Walkers?”
“The White Walkers may be able to destroy human civilization,” the old man said calmly, “but in the end they won’t have much impact on the world.”
“You mean, soon I will affect the whole world?”
“You’ve impacted the entire world.”
The old man took a deep look at Renly, then turned his head and stared at the silhouette of a castle wall that was vaguely visible in the snow not far away. “The existence of the old world is just a trace left in the long river of history, but you have connected these traces one after another. Realistically, I don’t know how you do it, but obviously it’s definitely not a good thing for the world.”
As if in response to his words, a faint roar of a dragon came from the castle, the sound implying anger and irritability – it was unclear what happened to the dragon and his master there.
Renly had no curiosity about this. In contrast, he wanted to know everything that the man in front of him knew. And perhaps seeing that Renly had no intention of resisting, this rather mysterious old man could be regarded as knowing everything.
It’s a pity that the old man doesn’t know much about what Renly is. He only knows that the impact and damage caused by Renly are serious.
But Renly was not without gains. For example, he learned some information about the “Sons of Anarchy” from the old man nicknamed the Three-Eyed Raven, but actually named Brynden Rivers.
“I can’t interfere with history like you do, but I can step into the old world and observe everything that has happened in history. So after discovering your existence, I followed the clues and continued to search. Finally, I saw Raya in your mouth.”
They found an oak tree that was strong enough to shield them from the cold wind, and stood on the side of the oak tree and started a harmonious and friendly, but weird conversation.
“So I witnessed firsthand her insane, world-warping powers, as well as her self-destruction.”
“Self-destruction?”
Renly frowned when he heard this. He had heard from Rhaenys about Raya being incinerated into ashes by fire, but he had never thought of the word self-destruction.
“Yes, she is very powerful. No one can kill her except herself.”
“So…she is really dead?”
“On a physical level, yes.” Brynden Rivers replied, which made Renly slightly stunned. “On a physical level?”
“What she died was just her body. Her soul did not actually dissipate, but always wandered in the long river of history.” Brynden Rivers had no intention of selling out, “I think she is looking for you, but she is active in the old world. You can never be found in reality.”
“Unless I can enter the old world and find her on my own initiative.” Renly murmured softly.
“Yes,” Brynden Rivers nodded, “but if you cannot control your own ability to wreak havoc, then I will never let you leave this shield.”
Renly blinked when he heard this and said nothing, because he didn’t know exactly what would happen when the sublimation was full, and it was useless to say anything now.
The conversation that followed was fitful, but continuous.
Soon after, the manic wind and snow pouring from the sky quietly stopped. Under the not warm but very rich sunshine, the forest dotted with white snow seemed to be shining.
The branches above the head, the snow crust that crunches when stepped on… Walking in this environment that is obviously a sacred forest, a faint feeling of hunger emerges unknowingly.
So Renly walked toward the castle not far away, and the old man in black robe followed closely behind him.
To Renly’s surprise, the appearance of himself and Brynden Rivers did not attract the attention of anyone in the castle – even though there were hundreds of people in “Winterfell”.
Brynden Rivers claimed that this was due to the influence of the power of the old gods, but Renly guessed that his current state did not seem to be that he had completely entered the copy. This feeling came out of nowhere, or it could be called intuition.
But no matter what, this does not affect his ability to fill his stomach. Even more fortunately, the owner of this place happened to hold a banquet to welcome the new heir to the Iron Throne who came riding a dragon, so the food that came into view was very rich.
As a result, in the bustling castle hall, supernatural phenomena began to occur frequently, with some food suddenly disappearing or flying out of thin air…
With the purpose of stimulating or testing the Three-Eyed Crow, Renly did not hide his behavior, so soon after, many banquet guests who had been drinking happily began to realize that something was wrong, and then panic was born and spread quickly.
The hall with dense braziers became even more chaotic. There were shouts of surprise, shouts of terror, children shouting in surprise, the sound of tables and chairs colliding, the sound of weapons being unsheathed, the sound of wine glasses hitting the ground…
Various chaotic sounds replaced the original laughter and laughter of the banquet, and the situation became increasingly weird. The young dragon knight who came to Winterfell to win over the Stark family even left the hall in a hurry, and ran towards the school grounds where he had been placed in the castle with a nervous look on his face. His powerful mount seemed to be afraid that he would be attacked by this strange phenomenon here——
In a sense, this is possible, because people in this era are still very superstitious, and in the north of Westeros, there are countless strange and confusing legends.
“It’s fun to be invisible.” In a corner where no one was paying attention, Renly wiped some oil stains from the corner of his mouth. With emotion, he turned his head to look at Brynden Rivers, who had been following him.
“But I guess it’s going to have some bad consequences.”
“If it’s serious, you may use this to breed a second chaos.” Brynden Rivers replied expressionlessly, “Disturbing the original operation of the old world will inevitably cause disorderly chaos, which will give you the opportunity to take.”
“Pregnant…” This word made Renly feel awkward, but he was more curious about what this person was thinking at this time.
“Then why didn’t you stop me?”
“Because you will cause more serious damage soon, this chaos does not need to be taken seriously.”
“…I’m curious how you know that I can cause damage.” Renly said: “In fact, even I don’t know.”
“The old gods are rooted in the world, and the old gods are closely connected with the world, so they can look back on the past and observe the future to a certain extent.” Brynden Rivers said: “The Green Seer is the representative of the old gods in the present world. “
The Three-Eyed Raven is just a nickname, and the Green Seer is this person’s “serious profession”. Renly still knows this. Therefore, he wanted to ask more about this aspect, but unfortunately the other party was not willing to tell more about the secrets related to the power of the old gods. On the contrary, he did not hide the White Walker disaster that was happening in reality.
“In ancient times, the children of the forest once occupied the entire world, but now they are on the verge of extinction.”
When he said this, Renly and Brynden Rivers were standing in an abandoned tower in Winterfell, sheltering from the cold wind that was blowing again outside.
“So for the survival of the Children of the Forest, I managed to free the White Walkers.”
“Aren’t you human too?” Renly asked strangely.
He was not surprised that the other party’s words vaguely revealed the information that he had some control over the White Walkers. After all, Renly knew some clues originally, and there was also a plot in the show in his past life that the White Walkers were created by the Children of the Forest.
“Without the Children of the Forest, the power of the Old Gods would be severely affected.” Brynden Rivers replied, “And I am not truly human now.”
“So your plan is to use the White Walkers to eliminate humans, and then allow the children of the forest to have space to live?” Renly said in a sarcastic tone, “Aren’t you afraid of ruining your game?”
“The White Walker disaster won’t last long.”
Brynden Rivers knew everything and said honestly: “Ice and fire are the duality of the world. The ancient Valyrians used the power of fire and blood magic to create dragons. When humans invaded Westeros, In order to win, the Children of the Forest used the power of ice to create the White Walkers. The dragons can suppress the White Walkers, and the Children of the Forest can also stand up to help them again when the human world is in crisis, so you see, I don’t mean to completely. Exterminating humanity doesn’t do me any good.”
Renly frowned when he heard this, and at the same time, he suddenly remembered the true identity of Brynden Rivers before him.
Brynden Rivers was born more than a hundred years ago in “reality” and was a figure in the era of King Aegon.
Known as “Bloodraven” or “Duke Bloodraven”, he is the illegitimate son of King Yong and a staunch supporter of the Targaryen dynasty’s orthodoxy. He once served as a battlefield leader, Hand of the King, and Commander-in-Chief of the Night’s Watch. He finally disappeared during his term of office. …
Only Targaryen can subdue the dragon. Although in the current “reality”, the dragon does not even have a shadow, but judging from Brynden Rivers’ tone, it seems that he is sure to make the dragon reappear.
The Children of the Forest under the faith of the Old Gods obviously also have detailed information and restraint methods on the White Walkers. As a result, humans will inevitably rely on these two forces if they want to alleviate the current disaster.
So relying on this, it is not unimaginable that the Targaryens and the Old Gods will successfully rise during and after the disaster.
In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, the man in front of him will achieve what he wants, and his goal of “dominating” Westeros is not far away.
It was clear that Renly himself was an accident, which made the other party’s claim that more serious damage was about to occur less credible.
But what worries Renly more is why does this Three-Eyed Crow talk to him so much?
He didn’t need to say this.
