Game of Thrones: Viserys the Three-Headed Dragon.

Chapter 228: Signs of War

"This is what they call the 'truth'!"

Marwyn used some unknown method to use the demented Wargrave to open the door of the magic contract.

Soon, Viserys and Marwyn found the "Tui Bei Tu" mentioned by the doctors of the Citadel: "'World Style'."

It was something similar to the "Kabbalah Tree of Life", but simpler, consisting of seven circles and ten diameters. Rather than a formula, it looked more like a cult secret.

Viserys found that he, like Dr. Perestan, could not understand what this thing was. He could only recognize that the variables on the diameter of this formula were records of world phenomena by different students, such as the position of the constellations at fixed observation points, the direct angle of the sun, and the four circles in the center represented four academic constants that were considered unchanging by the Citadel. The three outer circles represented unknowable forces, which were used to describe the external forces of the world, gods, magic, and aliens. The constants inside the three circles were not calculated, but their sum was regarded as a constant to participate in the "world-style" calculation.

".The Citadel uses this thing to help calculate the calendar, the seasons and the world." Dr. Marwin was attracted and his eyes lit up. "I see, so that's how it is. So this is how they want to abandon magic and create reality."

Next to the so-called world-style bookshelf, four thick tomes of astrology, geography, mathematics and alchemy are placed around. Those are the basic subjects for understanding the "world style".

Viserys felt a headache after just a glance. It would take years or even decades to study these books. He looked at Marwyn.

However, he found that Marwyn was looking at the 'world-style' wall map with a bitter face, and asked in confusion: "There is a magic contract on this map, which is the core of the magic contract. It should have something to control the magic contract. Your Majesty, be careful, this map is not ordinary. Its ink contains the blood of some magical creatures, and its paper should be made of ten thousand year old fish beam wood. This kind of magic contract is very likely passed down from the old god belief, and is made by the blood sacrifice of magical creatures. It's really ironic that the 'real world' tries to cut off magic, but their core secrets are kept by magical creatures. They are too extreme, and it is impossible for them to cut off magic. Your Majesty, don't worry, I will not be affected by their stupid plan. They are just a group of gray sheep sitting in the study, calculating with pens, and thinking that they can cut off the magic of the world. I think that is something that even gods find difficult to do. In my opinion, if they want to do this, they must first create a creator who can control everything in the world."

"This should be the thing that controls the magic contract." Viserys took out a scepter. The scepter was completely black and was taken from Theobald. As soon as Viserys held it in his hand, he realized that there was something wrong with the scepter. It looked like it was made of black iron, but it was obviously light in his hand. Proving that the core of the scepter was something else. "Do you have a way for me to control this magic contract and modify its oath?"

"Do you intend to use this to control the flock of gray sheep, Your Majesty?"

"Not only them, but also you, Marwyn." Viserys said bluntly, "Now the reaction of the Citadel and Hightower has exceeded my expectations. What I have obtained here is also beyond my expectations. I realize that I cannot treat things here with the attitude I treat mundane things. Marwyn, let me ask you a question. If someone can tell you the theory that is closest to the truth in this world, but at the cost of your life, are you willing?"

Baelor Hightower convinced Viserys that he was now above the mundane world and could think from the perspective of a 'god' rather than a mortal. So Viserys planned to control these people, squeeze out their surplus value, and find the right way to become a 'god'.

"Is this the truth that I cannot find out in my lifetime?" Marwyn thought for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty, may I ask how far is the 'world style' of the Citadel from the 'truth' you speak of?"

Viserys replied: "The Citadel's 'worldly style' can explain some phenomena, but it is still far from the 'essence'."

Marwyn paused, and could not help asking, "Your Majesty, forgive my abrupt question, but does your knowledge really come from Valyria?"

"What do you think?" Viserys asked.

Marwyn answered, "Your Majesty, I have thought about this carefully. The Geometry you gave me is all basic geometry, but I have not found any similar records in any place with a history of mathematics in Essos, from Volantis, the nearest to Valyria, to Asshai in the Far East. So I suspected that the Geometry you gave me did not come from Valyria. I thought that you had inherited something from the Kingdom of the Dawn or some ancient eastern country, but that is too far away for me to be sure."

Viserys asked again: "Do you believe in the existence of 'gods' in the world, Master Marwyn?"

Marwyn was curious: "The all-knowing and all-mighty God?"

Viserys said noncommittally: "Hmm."

Marwyn shook his head. "I don't think so."

Viserys asked, "What do you think of the Red God, or the Cold God, as the red priests call him?"

Marwyn replied: "I often wonder if they are just some kind of inhuman alien that we cannot fully understand."

Viserys said calmly, "I know what they are."

Marwyn's eyes widened, and he looked at him in disbelief: "You know?"

"So, do you have a way for me to control this bond?" Viserys asked.

Marwyn's eyes flickered. "If you knew what 'God' was, how could this thing be so difficult for you?"

Viserys smiled mysteriously and replied, "As you said, there is no all-knowing, all-powerful god, Master Marwyn."

Stormland.

The months-long rain finally showed signs of stopping, and no more strange sightings were reported to the castle.

From an occult perspective, this was somewhat unexpected for Viserys.

But this is undoubtedly a good thing for the victims of Stormland. This abnormal and disturbing storm has brought great damage to Stormland. Now that it has stopped, it provides Stormland with some breathing space before preparing for winter.

After receiving the letter, Viserys went back to take a look and found that the abnormalities in the Stormlands were indeed gradually disappearing.

Viserys had a bad feeling, a sense of déjà vu. The rainstorm in the Stormlands was like the naval battle between him and Euron on the Sunset Sea, where both sides used magical powers that could be called "demigods".

After Viserys won the naval battle, the rain stopped and the wind subsided. What did it mean that the rain that swept the Stormlands had stopped now?
Viserys guessed that the Drowned God must have benefited greatly. After all, the Storm God was originally sealed, and his power was dispersed, so even Viserys and Euron could benefit from the remains of the Storm God.

But these things are not something that can be told to outsiders.

But in the eyes of ordinary people, they have different views on the disappearance of this strange rain disaster.

For example, the first city to clear up was Yuwu City. Not only Yuwu City, but in fact, the lords of the rain forest who heard about the situation in Yuwu City began to have some strange opinions about the dragon statue built by His Majesty the Dragon King in Yuwu City. Under the promotion of some intentional or unintentional people, some coastal towns in Stormland began to imitate the dragon statue built by the sea outside Yuwu City.

The rumor about the Dragon God's ability to adjust the wind and rain gradually spread along the coast of the rain forest. The knights who had previously accompanied the King and were awarded titles for fighting against the aliens became the only candidates for the Dragon God statues to be "opened" in towns. The knights who dried the fish-man aliens and were rewarded began to be praised in songs among the people of the Stormland.

What seemed like a confusing event to Viserys was interpreted differently by the common people who did not know the full story.

But the Drowned God didn't seem to care.

Storm's End.

Daenerys, who is becoming more and more pregnant, is writing a letter to Viserys. However, the content of the letter is not about the current situation in the Stormlands. Instead, Daenerys is telling her brother a new ballad sung by Patchface, the jester who was taken to Storm's End with Shireen Baratheon.

"The long river will return to the sea, and the turbulent waves in the West Sea will calm down"

But before the letter is sent, Viserys falls from the sky and lands at Storm's End.

After some pleasantries and a brief discussion of their respective recent situations, Viserys roughly grasped the movements of the Drowned God and Euron.

There is only one river in this world that can be called the "Long River", the River Rhoine in Essos.

It is not difficult to understand that the River Rhoyne itself is also part of the magical geography of this world. The River Rhoyne is a huge river that runs across the west of Essos. It is longer than any other river in the world and wider than any other river in the world.

The Long River Returns to the Sea
In the beliefs of the ancient Loina people, the mother river Lorne and the secondary rivers under it, such as the Old Man and the Crab King, are suspected to be the carriers of the "Water Song".

According to Rhoynar legend, the waters of the River Rhoyne have nourished the land of the Rhoynar since the beginning of the world.

Volantis, where Patchface comes from, is the estuary of the River Rhoine, and Patchface has a close relationship with the Drowned God.

Based on Viserys's understanding of the Rhoyne River, Viserys speculated that the Drowned God was preparing to attack the demigods who were the carriers of the "Water Song" in the Rhoyne River. As the world was undergoing a major change, the carriers of the "Water Song" would undoubtedly fight to become the only one.

As for the West Sea, it is of course the Sunset Sea.

The only person concerned there is Euron Greyjoy, who is unsure whether it is the Bloodstone Emperor who has been reborn or has become a god with the power of the Bloodstone Emperor.

Viserys guessed that Euron, who had unknowingly obtained the Black Stone Tablet closely related to the Bloodstone Emperor from Hightower, would eventually go to Point Nemo in the Ice and Fire World. The power he wanted to obtain must be a very ancient power. Viserys thought that if there was a place in the world where those discordant notes in the creation movement were abandoned or where those songs that had been played were allowed to sleep, that place must be Point Nemo in the Ice and Fire World.

What Viserys just couldn't understand was, since the Drowned God knew what Euron was doing, why didn't he stop it?
Similarly, Viserys didn't know whether R'hllor and the Cold God knew about the relationship between the Long Night and Euron? If they knew, it would be fine if the Cold God didn't care, but why didn't R'hllor care?
There is also the Three-Eyed Raven. Viserys feels that Euron and the Three-Eyed Raven must have an inseparable relationship. Is the Three-Eyed Raven indulging Euron?

Even though the gods were not omniscient and omnipotent, Viserys could not understand why the gods left Euron alone.

It was precisely because he couldn't understand that Viserys took the time to come back this time, bringing Euron's sealed body with him.

Viserys planned to ask Fremy, the priestess of R'hllor, for clarification. Now that Viserys could be considered a "demigod", he no longer needed to worry about the power of Fremy.

Moreover, in the observations and records of the Citadel and the Hightower family on the Faith of the Seven, Viserys vaguely grasped a possibility. There is a reason why the Faith of the Seven could spread so widely in a world where there are "true gods" and magic and witchcraft. The Citadel and the Hightower chose the Faith of the Seven not because this faith has no gods, but because this faith allows humans to fight against gods. The connection between the Faith of the Seven and the Great Era of Humanity may be beyond imagination. The Faith of the Seven has no "true gods", perhaps it was intentional by the Creator God.

The power of creation in this world is song, and in the end, according to the cognition of the Human Emperor of the Kingdom of Dawn, the final promise is the era of man. Viserys reasonably speculated that there is "Song of Man" in the chapter of creation, but there is no corresponding god for Song of Man because the power of "Song of Man" is dispersed in every mortal.

How to harness the power of humanity. Full of possibilities.

The Summer Sea in the southern part of Essos.

In the unknown sea, a low-pressure air mass that is rarely seen in a thousand years is gradually forming near the equator of the Summer Sea. This tropical storm typhoon circle is overeating, eating all the formed and unformed typhoon embryos on the sea level, and at the same time sucking a large amount of southwest monsoon and cross-equatorial air flow water vapor blowing from the Sothoryos continent. If there are satellite cloud maps in the world of ice and fire, you will see a giant typhoon cyclone forming on the sea in the next few days. Its high-level cloud system has a diameter of more than 500 leagues (2400 kilometers), and the wind field at the bottom is also expanding. In its center, extremely strong convective clouds are erupting, and a terrifying typhoon eye has formed.

This giant typhoon has taken shape and is still getting stronger. In fact, this large and powerful super typhoon has already started moving. Its path is affected by the autumn subtropical high pressure on the continent of Essos, and its direction is slowly adjusting. If someone can look down from a high altitude, they can already see that the typhoon's path has basically locked onto the Orange Coast west of Volantis.

Under normal circumstances, most typhoons would be blocked by the high mountains and hills on the coastline, which greatly reduced the typhoon's strength. When entering the inland, it would usually be heavy rain and 7-8 gales. But the Orange Coast is a relatively flat coast. If the typhoon landed there, it would be able to easily land over the coastal hills and enter the river delta plain of the Rhoan River Basin. Then it would continue to move northward, passing through the riverside plains of the Seheru River and the Laruru River, and deep into the Heartbreak Ridge and the Golden Fields of Essos, and it might even stop in the Norfos Hills where the Nain River is located.

In the town of Na Saxing where the Rhoan River and the Naan River meet, and the ruins of Nymeria's palace, someone once saw a giant horned turtle floating to the surface of the Rhoan River. Some people believed that the giant turtle was the god of the Rhoan River, the Old Man of the River.
