Game of Thrones: I loaded the Witcher system
Chapter 194 The Real World
After Melisandre finished speaking, Clay understood why this woman came to him.
To put it simply, the dualistic relationship between the Lord of Light and the God of Cold actually makes sense to a certain extent. As a messenger of R'hllor, Melisandre's body is filled with violent fire magic.
When she came to the north, to be precise, the closer she got to the north of Westeros, the more her power was suppressed. Even the recovery of magic brought by the dragon's reappearance could not weaken this feeling.
Therefore, according to this logic, as long as R'hllor himself does not die, his so-called servant priests will actually have no impact on the Cold God north of the wall.
Even in this place where the sky is full of snow, they, the high-level priests, are no match for the theoretical servants of the Cold God like the White Walkers. If they dare to appear in the land of eternal winter far away from the Great Wall, they are tantamount to being in the darkness. Candle.
However, being free from this opposing magic system, Clay and his five demon hunter guards did not have this problem at all. Clay came outside the wall and was not affected at all.
Melisandre or R'hllor, rather than wanting to support her in ascending to the throne, so-called resisting the Cold God's invasion, the more real idea is probably to let the demon hunters she created, the version of the world of ice and fire, serve as outsiders. Pathfinder.
Even more extreme, they want to use demon hunters, magic warriors that can theoretically be mass-produced, to hunt the servants of the Cold God, led by the White Walkers, outside the Great Wall and weaken the Cold God's power.
Therefore, when Melisandre or R'hllor realized this, they immediately came to find him. The mention of Azor Ahai before was probably just to tease him.
You have been appointed as the hero to save the world by our King of Light. Why don't you cooperate with us? That's probably the logic.
It's a pity that the calculation is very loud. The fact that they can say this means that at least at this time, they have not realized that they will inevitably go against Clay Mandler later.
This is good, because it means that Clay has enough time to take advantage of both sides. The last thing Clay wants to see is that both sides think that their system has impacted their existence, so they join forces and kill them first. Say it yourself.
Now, Clay's wings are not yet full-fledged. He has already grown fur and can circle the sky a few times, but there is still a long way to go before he can truly fly into the sky.
Now that he really wants to go to war with the Army of the Dead, Clay really doesn't have any good means. He can't call his four dragons over again, can he?
Now the size of a dragon, flying over rashly, is this to let the Night King win another gold medal in the javelin? Clay couldn't do such a stupid head-sending maneuver.
Originally, the Great Wall of Despair was fine. The magic barrier kept out the legions of the dead, and they were not allowed to step outside. The stable group belonged to them. However, the white-haired queen who now belonged to her family had to send a dragon over to defeat the magic with magic.
Then, what happened next was disgusting. The Great Wall of Despair was pierced from East Sea, and the Army of the Dead crossed the Great Wall and set foot on the land of the north. The first to bear the brunt were the unlucky ones along the route.
So, in the final hall of Hearth City, the White Walkers showed everyone a wave of performance art, which reflected their unique aesthetics as intelligent creatures.
"Okay, I understand. I can only say that Ms. Melisandre, the conditions you proposed are very tempting, but let me ask, what about Stannis Baratheon, who you supported before? His The flag, the crown of the stag, is burning with fire."
Regarding this question, the priestess of R'hllor obviously had a clue. She didn't care and gave the answer without thinking:
"Stannis Baratheon has never been a true believer of the Lord of Light. During the time I have been with him, I have deeply understood this. And a mortal who is not a believer of our Lord naturally cannot be Azor Ahai is reincarnated, then he has no value."
"Well... Azor Ahai, Helkoron, Yi Tal, Neferion, "Shadow Hunter" Edric, there are indeed many names referring to this hero, are you right? , Lady Melisandre?”
Melisandre frowned. Of course she knew who the names Clay mentioned were. They were the names of the heroes who ended the long night in the legends of other regional cultures in Essos. This was precisely what the Church of the Red God did not tolerate. .
The reason why a hero is a hero is because he himself is a rare thing. There is only one and only one, and he has a monopoly position among the creators. Once this monopoly is broken, many heroes will appear at once.
Then, the original hero will fall from the altar, become worthless, and no one will worship him anymore.
"Clay Mandler, what on earth do you mean? These words are quite harsh to us!"
"I'm just telling you, don't fool me with any prophecies. I don't believe in those things at all. Only what I beat down with my own hands truly belongs to me. Am I clear enough?"
Clay's tone is not good, and there are strong religious traditions in various parts of Westeros, so this kind of prophecy is very popular, and people like Stannis Baratheon who once stood at the top of power are not immune to it.
Melisandre sighed inwardly and felt a little headache at the same time. This was the first time she had seen a guy like Clay who was unsophisticated and did not give any respect to gods like R'hllor and the Lord of Light.
But considering that the other person is another god whom she doesn't know, the agent in the human world, Melisandre barely feels that she can understand Clay's thoughts.
"Well, Clay Mandler, since you don't agree with what I said, what are your conditions?"
Melisandre is ready to take a step back. The most important thing for her to come this time is to ensure that Clay will not have deeper contact with the forces of the old gods.
Although the Old God and his representative, the Three-Eyed Crow, are still on the opposite side of the Cold God in most cases, that is because the Cold God and his servants always want to encroach on His territory.
Similarly, they are also very wary of the priests of R'hllor, the King of Light, but there is still a weak Seven Gods in the south, so there is no overt conflict for the time being.
Now, the emergence of Clay Mandler has brought new variables to this situation. Clay himself represents a brand new divine power in their eyes.
If this power turns to the old gods, forms an alliance with the Three-Eyed Raven, and slowly restores the faith of the old gods in Westeros, then R'hllor's goal of assimilating to Westeros will become much more difficult.
And this is the result that the red-robed monks like Melisandre and Thoros least want to see.
The Three-Eyed Crow was hiding in a tree hole and lingering, but Clay was alive and kicking, vaguely mastering the most powerful armed forces in the entire Seven Kingdoms. More importantly, this kid took the pill that they originally planned to invest in. Nelisse was abducted.
It was after Melisandre learned that Daenerys came to Westeros with Clay that she immediately decided to leave Dragonstone and completely abandon Stannis Baratheon's contact with Clay.
"Conditions? You mean the conditions for giving up the agreement with that crow and cooperating with you instead?"
"Yes, you can understand that."
"Okay, let me be frank, I don't care what your master wants to do, but if it goes against my purpose of unifying the entire Westeros, then you are my enemy."
"This is natural. We support you to sit on the throne. A king who understands things in his mind is much better than those who just get drunk. He will not kick us out without listening to what we say. Go to the palace."
"Also, I ask you to completely give up contact with any lord in the entire continent of Westeros from now on. If I find that your people are still contacting them, then our agreement will be directly void."
"Yes, Thoros will leave King's Landing soon, as will other colleagues."
"Finally, at this stage, I do not allow you to spread the teachings of the King of Light within my territory. Not now. Remember, put away your ambitions. If you raise something, find someone who is obedient." If you think about it, your Red Temple may not be safe."
Melisandre frowned and was silent for a while, then whispered:
"Is this a threat from you? Clay Mandler, you have to know that we are here to help you."
"Help me? Without you, I can still win the war, but I have to pay more, but for me, it is acceptable, but you, on the other hand, want too much."
Clay pointed out the crux of the problem coldly. This is equivalent to bringing money into the company. You have money, but you can't ask everyone to listen to you right away.
If this were the case, who would cooperate with you? They would be doomed to be devoured. Everyone is smart and not stupid.
In fact, Melisandre has no good solution at all, because Clay is too strong and has a very advantageous position in the negotiation.
If they can't win over Clay, they can only destroy him. They can't watch him cooperate with the old gods and completely seal the entrance of R'hloxi.
"Then let's take a step back. You must promise not to cooperate with the old god again and not let his faith cross the border on a large scale. This is our bottom line."
"Yes, although this is included in the original agreement, there is no rush, so in principle I agree with this."
In fact, when Clay originally negotiated with the Three-Eyed Crow, this was not the case at all. The Three-Eyed Crow's purpose was to maintain the status quo and then encourage Clay to fight against R'hllor's forces.
But since Melisandre said so, Clay just lied as a favor and showed his sincerity, even though he didn't have to pay anything.
In the original memory, Daenerys was actually a pawn for R'hloth's advancement to the west. When she takes over all of Westeros with the help of Melisandre, the Church of the Red God will most likely replace the Seven Gods.
After all, when Aegon landed, the church caused a lot of trouble for the Targaryen dynasty. However, the First Targaryen dynasty was not strong enough at the time to defeat the Church of the Seven Gods, which had a large tree and deep roots.
There is no other choice but to join if you can't beat him. Aegon's coronation ceremony was presided over by the Archbishop.
But by the time Daenerys arrived, all of Westeros had been destroyed, and St. Baelor's Cathedral, the headquarters of the Seven Gods, had been destroyed by the wise Cersei. It became natural for the Church of the Red God to become the new state religion. .
However, who knew that Jon Snow had a heart attack and stabbed his beloved aunt in the heart, causing the Red God to become paralyzed.
Finally, the spokesperson of the old gods, the new generation of the Three-Eyed Raven incarnation, Bran Stark, sat on the throne in a wheelchair, which meant that the old god faction completely won the battle.
With the power of the Red God, he killed the Cold God's servants and eliminated the threat behind his butt. Then he killed the Red God's spokesperson with a single blow, ascended the throne himself, and harvested the final fruit of victory.
How should I put it, from Clay's point of view, this guy is completely Yin Ma, and there can be no more.
"Oh, by the way, my men told me that some strange guys appeared on the territory of the Cold God. They don't seem to be those hard-toothed servants of the Cold God. Did your master tell you this?"
Clay suddenly thought of something and turned to ask Melisandre.
"Strange guy? What do you mean? Everything outside the wall is filled with the breath of the Cold God. Except for the savages you just defeated, those are the servants of the Cold God. There will be no other intelligent life living here."
"Hmm...that's it. Maybe the guys under my command made a false alarm. Don't mind it."
Clay touched his chin and nodded. If his men were right, and the rangers who had escaped from death were also right, it means one thing. R'hllor's map hangs everywhere outside the wall. Black shadow part.
Melisandre went over Clay's words in her mind, but she felt that this might be Clay, the military leader, who was misled by the wrong information brought by his men, so after thinking about it, she didn't take it too seriously. superior.
"Melisandre, I'm wondering, is it really that cold in the north? If the cold god really dissipates, will it really snow all the time outside the Great Wall?"
Clay suddenly thought of a question. He had seen the map of the world of ice and fire. The location outside the Great Wall was not too far north. It was only such a small distance away. There was no reason why it would be so cold.
But obviously, Clay's question had not been considered by the witch before. She thought carefully for a while and gave an answer that Clay was not very satisfied with.
"The Cold God represents darkness, coldness, and death. Beyond the Great Wall, this is a land lacking light and heat. When the Cold God dissipates, this place will definitely be much better."
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. If so, wouldn't R'hllor and Cold God become the climate regulators of the entire world? Now that the cold god is gone, the temperature should rise everywhere?
If that's the case, the areas outside the Great Wall and the northern border are comfortable, but what will happen to the south of Jingze? Are they all like Dorne?
As for Dorne...well, it will probably result in a bunch of plain human jerky.
If this inference is true, then the climate in Westeros, which is as capricious as the temper of an adolescent boy, has an explanation. Isn't this the result of the battle between R'hllor and the Cold God?
The cold god became stronger, so the long night fell. In the cold winter, the White Walkers moved on a large scale and began to attack the world of the living. When R'hllor was strong, the long summer came, Dorne was extremely hot, and the weather was smooth in other places.
And if we extrapolate based on previous memories, that is to say... at this point in time, the power of the Cold God is stronger than R'hllor.
This is interesting. If this is the case, Clay will have to re-evaluate his current situation.
On the surface, it is a battle between Stark, Lannister, Baratheon, and Targaryen, but in fact, the forces behind it are not simple.
This chapter was written very slowly. In fact, when I was reading the original book and watching the TV series, the issue of gods behind the world of ice and fire was not actually mentioned, but they are everywhere throughout the story.
Although the last episode of the TV series was terrible, Bran's last words were: Otherwise, why do you think I did so much?
It's really interesting.
Therefore, this chapter is actually for me, the author, to understand the operating logic behind the world of ice and fire from the same perspective as everyone else. Otherwise, some things will be very strange.
There must be a reason for the Red God Church to come all the way to Westeros and do nothing but encourage everyone to become the Cold God.
They are not old enemies in dualism. Religion is religion, reality is reality, and no one is stupid.
Also, the Stark family has been passed down for so many generations, and there are so many people who can resonate with the old gods. Why did you choose Bran? Then, after all his previous brothers died, he was left to pick the peaches in the end. .
Apart from coincidence, this gives me a sense of deliberateness.
This chapter can be regarded as my own interpretation. It would be impossible if I didn’t write it. A Song of Ice and Fire, pretending not to see the gods, would not be good.
