Dragon Tribulation of All Realms

Chapter 332 High-Difficulty Challenge
Wu Chen had to admit that Hera Morley was indeed a true genius. A true genius is one who can learn even the most unfamiliar fields without a teacher, master them instantly, and apply what they've learned to other situations in a very short time. After a brief setback, they can turn the tables and regain the initiative.

That was a truly formidable opponent.

Wu Chen himself was unaware that he possessed so many flaws and weaknesses—compared to this battle, the previous 'academic exchange' on the Northern Ice Plains could only be described as a casual greeting. In this battle, he repeatedly found himself at a disadvantage, in dire straits, and even nearly collapsed to the ground, shouting, 'Senior, you can't!'

It really was just a hair's breadth away.

But fortunately, he also had equal creativity and luck.

During a hard-won respite, he used all the mental energy he could muster to carefully and comprehensively analyze all of Hera's intelligence. Finally, a definite flaw appeared in his eyes.

The main reason she started this fight was undoubtedly because I defeated her, and only then did I save her life—that's just how proud and confident she is. And her weakness is precisely her excessive confidence!

She never submitted to anyone before me; she only believed in her own wisdom and abilities. Even now, she still believes she can win. Therefore, her greatest weakness is herself!

Hera Morrie, that woman, is somewhat tainted by Narcissus!

Wu Chen possesses a spell that allows him to become anyone and accomplish anything. However, this spell is still far from being invincible. That is, before he hopes to accomplish something, he must at least calculate 'what kind of person should be capable of accomplishing it'.

To knock down a big tree, you first need to know that a storm can knock down a big tree.

To defeat the evil god, you must first understand that the fork can be effective.

Now he knows that to achieve the goal of 'defeating Hera,' all he needs to do is 'become Hera'!
The key matched the lock, and the puzzle was solved. And just as he had predicted, when he played his trump card, transforming into Hera Morley at the crucial moment, the once confident and dominant witch immediately became flustered, her eyes darting around, completely unable to handle Wu Chen's tactics. And what awaited her, naturally, was a crushing defeat.

The scales finally tipped in Wu Chen's favor, and the battle finally came to an end.

And when everything came to a close, and the victors, satisfied, slept peacefully, savoring the pleas of the defeated, forty alternating days and nights had already passed over this land.

..............................

Hera is gone.

When she left, the unstable rising and setting of the sun and moon in the sky had just gained a new order—there were no longer long summers and eternal winters on this land. And the alternation of the sun and moon was fixed at twenty-four hours, instead of the unstable alternation of a few hours or dragging on for several days.

The world finally stabilized—while Wu Chen was facing the most difficult challenge of his life. The goddesses he had created were painstakingly reshaping the world. The barren and shattered continent of Essos had been healed. Dense vegetation and water sources reappeared on the land. Ruined cities rose again from various geographical nodes, and a large number of newly rebuilt lives were evenly and properly filling them.

Human civilization on the continent of Essos was reshaped.

The many kingdoms of Westeros were also freed, no longer bound by Hera's Alaya rituals—and the people of this land, upon regaining their senses, naturally experienced a considerable period of fear and chaos. However, this was quickly replaced by gratitude and piety. After all, they had truly experienced the Battle of the Night in the North. After all, they had truly felt the feeling of unity. And when they understood that humanity's most powerful weapon, 'unity,' was merely a tool in the hands of the gods, they naturally recognized their own ecological niche.

This saved a lot of trouble—after all, this was indeed a world teeming with demons and monsters. The tide of magic was rising and deepening, and all living things needed to adopt a new approach to face the new world that was about to arrive.

as well as--

Before leaving, Hera returned the Citadel to Westeros. The vast collection of books within the city, having witnessed the war in the Northern Wastes, became sorcerer's books. Naturally, the maesters of the Citadel who were struck down and killed by her projections, and then resurrected in subsequent reconstructions, became her apprentices in a sense.

She certainly didn't teach them, but they did grasp a considerable amount of the basics of magic from the knowledge she left behind. They thus learned the truth that 'there are two gods on earth,' and viewed the people of the Seven Kingdoms and the Two Kings of Westeros as foolish worshippers of a false god.

It's quite amusing, considering they consider themselves the chosen ones and successors of the 'God of Defeat'. It's hard to imagine how many strange things they'll do in the days to come, like 'summoning the sleeping God of Defeat'. And the wizards of the Citadel and the followers of the Seven Kingdoms will likely find their future filled with battles and conflicts.

These are all good things; the advancement of civilization requires battles and conflicts.

"What does this have to do with me? I'm just a passerby." Wu Chen watched all of this without being moved.

Many people may die, but all people die eventually. Many nations may perish, but at this moment, before that happens, all the people on this land have already lived because of him.

The apocalypse has been averted, and the world has been reshaped. The goddesses who replaced the external deities have bestowed far more blessings upon this land than they have taken from it.

At least for now, there's more. As for the future, that's not something Wu Chen needs to worry about too much.

After all, he had essentially completed what he set out to do on the continent of Westeros. He owed no one any debts, nor did he have any responsibilities to bear.

"I am just a passerby." Before leaving the Academy City and the River Bend, Wu Chen emphasized this fact to himself once again.

His Origin Theory responded to him, urging him to grasp and possess more. And when he could no longer sense Hera Morley's location in this land, he donned an inconspicuous cloak and donned the sword of night that concealed its dazzling brilliance.

Passersby should wander around.

He mounted a wild horse and roamed the land like a wandering knight. He went to Dorne and found the place where the dragon Miracis had fallen—he unearthed the mangled, headless dragon skeleton from the depths of the earth. And the remains of Miracis's dragon rider, Queen Reynis, who had fallen with the dragon, been imprisoned, tortured, and killed, were also excavated from an ancient dungeon.

He reshaped them, recreated them, and then resurrected them. This was not due to fate, but rather a passing fancy. And after that, nothing on this continent concerned him anymore.
