Ice and Fire: Reign of the Dragon.

Chapter 267 Dan's Mission
Longzel didn't say anything, but just looked at the "Raven" lying motionless in the fire circle with a smile.

The raven wanted to struggle, but found that he seemed to be firmly bound by something in this small body. He couldn't get out and return to nature. He could only look at Longzel with a motionless smile on his face.

Finally, he gave a frustrated "quack" and patiently explained.

"Quack, Your Highness, this is different from what was agreed upon. Quack, Brynden Rivers, my heir, quack, he should have grown up among those noble bastards, quack, not including Daemon Weir's bastards. Quack, time will teach him how to use the magical talent bestowed on him by fate, and will also guide him onto the established track. At that time, he will naturally become close to your family. Quack, because he will learn to use any means necessary in the intrigue, and will also learn to choose allies. Quack, you should not bring him back to Dragon's Nest to train him."

Longzel looked quietly at the three-eyed crow covered in raven skin without saying a word, but the hoarse and unpleasant ancient language in the raven's mouth gradually quieted down.

"Your Highness, let me be clear with you. The torrent of fate and the finale of the grand movement are inevitable and cannot be defied, because this is the will of the world. This world was born from the song of water and earth, and was destroyed and reborn in the song of ice and fire, over and over again. Even if you prevent the demise of dragons and the decline of magic, it also means that the counterattack of the Ice Chapter will be more fierce. In the era when dragons disappeared, when the Ice Chapter sounded and the long night came, there might be only a few hundred revived Ice-Eyed Kings, and their companions might be just ice spiders and corpse horses. But now dragons still exist, the glass candles in the Eastern Immortal Palace are still burning forever, the sacred fire in the Great Temple of the Red God is still burning, and the magic capital of Asshai will never see the sun."

The raven slowly stood up, allowing the flames to ignite its feathers. Longzel raised his hand, and the flames emitting blood-red light went up along the feathers, swallowing the whole raven in an instant.

But that ordinary raven did not turn into a pile of charcoal. The flames flowed between the feathers, and the flesh gradually carbonized, revealing the ice-blue, gem-like bones. The raven's skull cracked in the flames, and a spinning blood-red eyeball struggled to turn out of the skeleton, and Longzel's face was reflected in the constantly changing eyes.

But the old man's face kept changing, from a normal human, to a burning silver flame, to a roaring dragon, and finally back to a normal human form.

"If magic still exists, then when the red omen passes across the sky, the final movement will be extremely strong, even more dangerous than the long night brought by the Bloodstone Emperor. At that time, tens of thousands of Ice Eye Kings will awaken, and the ice dragons sleeping under the ice sea will also revive, bringing the cold winter to the ocean. The devil grass will also devour everything in the East Continent, whether it is the centaurs or the desert."

"What do you want to say, Three-Eyed Raven?" Longzel said calmly, "If you want me to cooperate with you in reducing the number of dragons, then I can only apologize." He picked up the hot drink prepared by the servant and took a sip. "As an old god, or the agent of the last era, Three-Eyed Raven, you also know very well that magic is also the source of support for this world. Dragons were born from magic. They are the creation of the Song of Ice and Fire, and the symbol of the Song of Fire. Perhaps reducing the number of dragons will symbolize the weakening of the Song of Fire, and will also affect the strength of the Song of Ice."

He sat up straight: "But why?" He stared at the blood-red third eye of the Three-Eyed Raven with his deep purple eyes and said calmly.

"The dragon dies. When the red dragon slides down from the sky, the final movement begins, and the dragon will be reborn. The long night may not be so fierce at the beginning, and it will leave more time for the world. But can you guarantee that people really know this?"

He pushed the hot drink in front of the Flame Raven, who was obviously unable to eat or drink. "They won't. The Stark family has almost forgotten the existence of the White Walkers. Even if Lord Cregan remembers his responsibilities and the legend now, it's because he is Cregan Stark. No one can guarantee that his successors will still believe these. As for the lords in the south."

Longzel sneered: "They will just continue to play the game of thrones."

"You are already the winner, Your Highness." The Three-Eyed Raven interrupted, "You have already gained power and strength."

"I remember. My children remember. My children's children remember too." Longzel ignored the interruption of the Three-Eyed Raven. "The newborn dragon symbolizes the revival of magic and will also enhance the power of Ice Song. It's just a matter of time. Do you understand? Three-Eyed Raven."

"But. But"

The Three-Eyed Raven wanted to say something anxiously, but in the end Longzel did not give it the chance, so it could only swallow what it wanted to say.

As the most powerful magician outside the Great Wall, the Three-Eyed Raven, or the leader of the Green Prophet symbolized by the Three-Eyed Raven, knew very well what Longzel meant.

The final chapter of A Song of Ice and Fire is the climax of A Song of Ice. The Long Night falls, the end of the world begins, the ancient heroes are resurrected, and the forging of the King's Sword is repeated. Azor Ahai sacrificed his wife in exchange for the "Lightbringer", ending the last Long Night.

This time, that was how it should have ended.

Whatever the Lightbringer is, this is how it should have ended.

The plan of the Three-Eyed Ravens is to make the dragon representing the magic of the Fire Song system disappear, weaken the power of the Ice Song, buy enough time to give birth to the reincarnated hero, and finally resolve the terrifying long night that is bound to come.

However, the arrival of Longzel and his companions, as well as the prosperity of dragons, disrupted this old plan.

But they can't influence the Three-Eyed Raven.

How could this not break the defenses of these guys who have been quietly influencing the world for countless centuries?

After all, the Red Mountains are not the Fourteen Fire Peaks, so the impact is not that good.

"Three-Eyed Raven, go back and tell the agents representing different fragments to stop doing meaningless things." Longzel sighed, spread his hands and reached out to the Three-Eyed Raven who was bathed in fire. "Even if dragons still fall in the future because of this boring game, it will not cause the decline of real living forces."

He paused.

"Even if I am gone, I still have my sons and grandsons." He went on to say, "I will also let my children respond to the prophecy. After all, that is why I came here."

The raven, which was now only an ice-blue skeleton and a glittering third eye, quacked and jumped onto Longzel's hand.

"Longzel, actually we thought you were the agent of the will of Fire Song at first. Those fools who have no background and believe in the so-called 'God' thought you were the agent of the Red God. Quack. But we old guys who see the truth know better." The three-eyed crow quacked, and its ice-blue skeleton was disintegrating and gradually turning into dust. "Later we found out that you were such a guy. Well, you win, do whatever you want, as long as you are still willing to take on this responsibility, we old guys can rest assured."

"Oh, there is one more thing." The compromised Three-Eyed Raven croaked, "Remember to go to Sothoryos. There are gifts left for you from the last era."

Longzel nodded, looking at the pool of blue dust left on his hands.

"That's Dan's job, and the kid can't wait."

Longzel suddenly laughed.
