Chapter 760 The Gate of Hell

Inspired by something inexplicably familiar, Viserys rode a dragon to a place a hundred leagues northwest of Norvos, and then descended from the sky.

It was close to Loras Bay, but still surrounded by the mountains of the Norfoss Mountains.

This is a place in the mountains, densely forested and inaccessible, and the huge black dragon passed by, startling the beasts on the ground to flee in all directions, like the end of the world, and then Bellerion fell from the air.

"here."

And Viserys frowned slightly at the sight in front of him.

This place is located in the Norfos Mountains, but it is far away from the Norfoss city-state. However, Viserys can feel the call coming from this place from a long distance, and it is even more distant when he comes flying on a giant dragon. I saw it from a distance.

There is no reason for him.

Because the topographic features here are too conspicuous.

This is a huge tiankeng, and the deep hole is like an abyss. Especially when looking down from the sky, the hole that faces this tiankeng will feel creepy. Even Viserys is not exempt.

When he looked directly at the abyss, it was as if the abyss was also looking directly at him.

However, when Viserys fell from the sky and stood on the edge of the tiankeng to observe himself, he could find that there were still many dense caves below the tiankeng.

Naturally, this stunning natural feature is not unknown. It is definitely the largest sinkhole Viserys has ever seen, even bigger than the wreckage of the Fourteen Fire Fronts that he glimpsed in the ruins of Valyria. To be huge.

And because Viserys has the ability to remember, he can remember many books in his mind after reading it once, so he just thought about it for a moment and then remembered where this place is.

"It's still 'Long Legs' Lomas."

"This guy doesn't know how many places he's gone in his life."

Viserys remembered.

"Lomas traveled the world and wrote two famous books, one called 'The Miracle' and the other 'The Man-Made Miracle.'"

Because these two books are so famous, they are one of the enlightenment books for many aristocratic children in Westeros, which directly helped the children to shape their first impression of the whole wide world.

"The gods created seven wonders, but humans created nine."

This is one of the most famous words that Lomas said.

The seven wonders created by the gods can only be natural landscapes, while those created by humans are man-made architectural wonders.

"Novos' tiankeng is one of the seven wonders created by the gods."

"There is the rarest cave system in the world. The tiankeng is so steep and bottomless that no one can go to the bottom of this tiankeng."

"'People say this is the entrance to the underworld.'"

Viserys is still very fond of the two books "Miracle" and "Man-Made Miracle" by 'Long Legs' Lomas. The former Dragonstone Bachelor is his enlightenment teacher. Viserys is very fond of Norfos's sinkhole deep impression.

Especially for the last description of Lomas, 'the people around the Tiankeng believe that this is the entrance to the underground world'.

These aroused the curiosity of Viserys very early, but as things became more and more later, Viserys had long forgotten these.

I didn't expect to be attracted to the surrounding of this Tiankeng by accident at this time.

"really."

"This is the same as the cave suppressed by the old gods outside the Great Wall. It is also a bottomless pit."

The people around were not mistaken. There are some bizarre myths and stories in this world that are very outrageous, and some must be believed, because many of them are not rumored stories, but real things.

For example, the people living around Norvos Sinkhole claim that this is the entrance to the underworld, but Viserys confirmed this after careful observation.

This was indeed the gateway to an unknown place, and Viserys didn't know if it was the underworld, or something else.

But Viserys can be sure that this place and the bottomless pit outside the Great Wall, the ruins of Valyria and other places do come from the same source, and they have an inexplicable relationship with the black mist in his body.

After Victarion was transported to King's Landing, the red priestess Melisandre came to the door that night, and she explained to Viserys in detail what 'darkness and destruction' was.

The doctrine of the Red God is based on a dualistic worldview, that is, Allah R'hllor is called the Lord of Light, also the God of Heat and Life, while his mortal enemy, the God of Cold, is the God of Darkness, Cold, and Death.

The never-ending struggle between them determines the fate of mankind.

The battle between the Red God and the Cold God is based on the war that broke out in this world, and outside of this, there is another powerful force that has been coveting to invade this world, and is constantly infiltrating.

They are called 'Destruction'.

There is a wall in the Red Temple headquarters of Volantis that reads "Darkness and Destruction", which are the two major crises that threaten the entire world.

The power of the cold god brings death, and the will to destroy will destroy the whole world, and even the cold god will be destroyed together.

According to the revelation brought by Allah, the rest of the gods except R'hllor are false gods, because they are likely to have been eroded by the will of destruction, such as the cold god and the old gods of the north, only R'hllor remains Clear and bright.

Because of this, all the believers of the Red God Cult firmly believe that there is only one true God in this world, but the secret of this is only known to the higher-ups of the Red God belief.

And Melisandre is from Asshai, the real city of magic, wizards, wizards, alchemists, moonsingers, red monks, dark wizards, necromancers, cloud wizards, pyromancers, blood wizards , Torturer, Judgment Knight, Poisoner, Priestess, Nightcrawler, Shape Changer, and followers of 'Black Goat', 'Pale Child' and 'Night Lion', etc.

They are all welcome to Asshai, there are no taboos here, they can train their spells at will, there are no restraints and no criticism, they can perform obscene rituals if they want, they can copulate with demons, and they can talk about things that cannot be discussed publicly s things.

And the priestess in the red robe came out of here, and naturally knew many things that outsiders didn't know, so the Supreme Priest Benello had always regarded Melisandre as a thorn in his side.

But he just sent Maqiro to Westeros to pick fruit, which is naturally not that easy.

"But darkness and destruction seem to be coming back together."

Viserys felt the urge in his heart as he stood on the edge of the sinkhole, his long silver hair fluttering in the wind, and then clenched his fists.

Happy New Year 2022, I wish all friends a smooth and safe year ahead.
