Chapter 292 Proof
"You've seen them with your own eyes."

Gao Yuan raised his feet and came in front of Melisandre, and reached out to help the red-robed witch from the carpet: "Not only have I seen them with my own eyes, I'm also the only one who has survived from their hands so far."

"In the ghost forest north of the Great Wall, there were three rangers from the night watchman who were there to witness with me."

Every time he thinks about what happened in the ghost forest that night, he gets a chill down his spine.The feeling of being on the verge of death still makes him shudder even now, although he has already removed all the ice divinity in his body, and the damage caused to his body by the power of the cold god has also healed.

What if it was not the divine avatar of the Cold God that descended on the Ghost Shadow Forest that night, but the main body of the Cold God? Could he still survive from the hands of the Cold God?
The answer is no, he will probably be killed instantly like the two Rangers!

"But they all died under the ice magic of the cold god that night, and I was the only one who survived the scene." Gao Yuan told the red-robed woman with some fear, "We fought desperately against the dead in the ghost forest, but When the master of the dead comes, all our efforts will be in vain."

"This is really too absurd. These horror stories about 'Aliens' and 'Cold Gods' are just fabricated by the Stark family and the Night Watchmen. They want to exaggerate their historical identities and call themselves human beings. savior." Maester Cressen stood up and questioned at this moment.

"The so-called White Walkers are just a tribe of ancestors. They were originally the ancestors of the savages north of the Great Wall today. When the long night fell, they were forced to start moving south, so a series of disputes broke out with the ancestors south of the Great Wall. A turf war."

"Master Cresen, you have never been to the ice field north of the Great Wall, how do you know that those legendary ghosts do not exist?" Gao Yuan turned his head and looked at him with a serious expression, "The tall figure far exceeds ordinary people , with skin as gaunt and pale as milk. Their eyes were like blue stars that shone frightfully in the cold darkness, as I had seen with my own eyes in the forests north of the Wall. "

"It is true that I have never been to the Great Wall, but the scholars of the Academy City have never found what you just said in the existing ancient records." Bachelor Cresen still chooses to believe what he learned in the Academy City Knowledge, "Our oldest historical records were written after the Andals came to Westeros, and the ancestors left only some runes on the rocks."

"The so-called historical facts about the Age of Dawn, the Age of Heroes, and the 'Long Night' and the White Walkers are all supplementary notes fabricated by the monks thousands of years later. Therefore, we have reason to suspect that those who fabricated these stories are the same as me Never seen the White Walkers, and they haven't even visited north of the Wall."

"Brother Cresen, there are some truths in the world, those bachelors and doctors in Old Town will not teach you." Faced with the doubts of Bachelor Cresen, Gao Yuan did not hide his disdain, "Not all the truth will be recorded In books, especially those stories that took place in the Age of Dawn and the Age of Heroes, the First Men didn't even have paper or writing."

Maester Cresen choked for a moment, and even he didn't know how to refute Gao Yuan's words at this moment.The prevalent period of the White Walkers was 8000 years before the Conqueror's War. At that time, the ancestors had not developed a unified writing at all, and even paper had not been invented at that time.

The only way the ancestors of the First Men were able to record these stories was to carve them into the rock walls of caves.Today, in the obsidian mines on Dragonstone Island, there are still murals from that period, which record the story of the ancestors and the children of the forest joining hands to fight against the aliens.

In addition, only word of mouth among the ancestors can prove that these stories happened.

"Lord Gaoyuan, since the three rangers who were traveling with you all died at the hands of the ancient gods, how did you escape from the hands of the strange ghosts and the cold god?" said Stannis's wife, Sally. Mrs. Si seemed quite interested in this.

When Gao Yuan was thinking about how to answer the other party's question, Melisandre frowned and walked in front of him. She stretched out five slender fingers and gently stroked Gao Yuan's chest.Immediately, the red-robed woman seemed to have found something in front of his chest, and with light force with both hands, she pulled the neckline of the opponent's dress away, revealing the dark golden leather armor made of the skin of an unknown creature.

"Dragon skin!!!" Melisandre covered her lips in disbelief.

"I see. No wonder you were lucky enough to escape from the hands of the ancient Ability God. It turns out that you have a leather armor made of dragon skin on your body. This leather armor can help you resist the ancient Ability God. Ice magic." After calming down again, Melisandre suddenly realized.

"No. Although this leather armor can resist part of the magic damage for you, it is not strong enough to resist all damage." Soon, Melisandre denied her previous conjecture.

She looked thoughtfully at the looming elven runes engraved on the leather armor. Although the red-robed woman didn't know the specific meaning of these runes, she could clearly feel the power contained in those looming runes. powerful force.

No, this is not enough!

Melisandre denied her guess again, and she shook her head in disappointment.The power contained in these runes is powerful, but it is still not out of the scope of the red robe woman's understanding of magic, and they have not touched those great mysterious fields
In the end, Gao Yuan resolved the doubts in the red-robed girl's mind: "An adult direwolf can easily kill a newborn baby dragon, but this does not mean that the direwolf is a more powerful creature than a giant dragon. The cold god The power is great, but this ancient evil god has only just woken up from a thousand years of sleep."

"The cold god failed to kill me that night, only because its power is still very weak, and it doesn't even dare to come down to the mortal world in its real body." Gao Yuan's face was very gloomy at the moment, "but now that winter is coming, the cold god The power of it will only become stronger and stronger as winter approaches, and when the legendary long night comes to this world completely, then no one can resist its power."

This is what Gao Yuan is worried about now, seeing that the cold god's army of alien ghosts and divine power are getting stronger and stronger, but he has yet to find a way to fight against the cold god.When the cold winter and the long night go hand in hand, and they cross the Great Wall of Impossibility and start to erode towards the south, what if they can unify all the forces in Westeros by then?
When the cold god led his army of alien ghosts across the towering Great Wall, riding huge ice spiders and resurrected dead horses from the extreme north.Holding an ice arrow as thin as a blade and waving an ice crystal spear that can kill a dragon in his hand, all creatures on this continent will not escape their massacre.

They resurrected the dead to fight for them, and the mortal army was completely unable to resist the invasion of the cold god's army of ghosts.The current power alone can't change anything, even if Daenerys' army and the three dragons are added, the survival of mankind is at stake.

Some people may think that they can choose to flee to the continent on the other side of the strait by boat, anyway, the sea will resist the footsteps of the alien army for them.

But what if even the sea is frozen by a harsh winter that lasts for tens or hundreds of years?

You must know that the so-called cold winter and long night in this world are not just as simple as lasting for a few months. During the Age of Heroes, there was a winter and long night that lasted a whole generation to descend on this world.

The bleak world is dark and dark. People grow up in the cold winter and die in the cold winter.They have never seen spring come in their life, and they have never been bathed in the warmth of sunshine.The rivers disappeared because of the coming of winter, and the straits and seas were frozen because of the long night.

"My lord Gao Yuan, the night is dark and dangerous everywhere. The great True God Lord of Light once taught us believers that only by uniting can we resist the invasion of darkness." Melisandre folded her hands on her chest and began to pray secretly , she had never doubted her belief before that, and her belief has become more and more firm today.

"The great Lord of Light has already foreseen the approaching darkness, that's why my lord gave me visions and revelations of the future in the flames, and guided me to travel thousands of miles from Asshai to Dragonstone, in order to find the The prophesied prince is reincarnated to save our perilous world."

I saw Melisandre stepping down from the high stage, opened her arms to everyone at the dinner party and read the famous prophecy: "After the long summer, the stars will cry blood! Icy darkness will cover the whole world, and the cold air of winter will freeze The sea, the dead in the north will be revived. According to the prophecy of ancient books, in this moment of despair and terror, there will be a warrior who will pull out a burning sword from the fire, and this sword is the 'Lightbringer'."

"The holder of the Hero's Red Sword is the reincarnation of Azor Ahai, the legendary hero who once led us to defeat the White Walkers. He will lead us, the people of the Lord of Light, to drive away the darkness Reply to the light!"

"Fortunately, we have now found the reincarnation of the hero who saved the world, before the long night and winter come!" Melisandre firmly believes that she has now found the legendary savior. On the dais before us, his name is now Stannis Baratheon!"

"Great Allah, please give us your light." Melisandre recited the eulogy loudly, "Because the long night is dark and dangerous everywhere."

As the voice of the red-robed woman echoed in the banquet hall, many knights, nobles and captains on Dragonstone Island also got up and followed her to chant prayers: "O great Allah. Please give your light to Let us. Because the night is dark and dangerous everywhere."

In the entire hall, only a very small number of people did not pray with her.Among them was the group of Gudi who followed Gaoyuan, because they believed that even if the prophecy spoken by the red-robed woman was true, the reincarnation of Azor Ahai should be the Gaoyuan they are following now.

When everyone's prayers were over, a deep male voice came from the main table, and Stannis Baratheon had already got up from his seat.It wasn't until this moment that he finally understood what the people on Dragonstone Island wanted.

This also made him gradually believe that the "missions" mentioned by the red-robed woman may really belong to him, and he was born to lead the people of Westeros, resist the darkness and bring them light.

"Master Gao Yuan, what does the ancient alien god you see look like?"

"I have no way of knowing what his real body is, but when he appeared in front of me, it was like a white mist rising from the darkness." Gao Yuan turned his head and told Duke Stannis, "If I have to To describe him, I can only tell you that he is a shadow with sharp teeth. It sucks like a knife in your lungs. You will not understand how terrifying it is. Lord Stannis, can your sword cut through white mist and cold? "

"The cold god invaded the bodies of the two rangers like the air we breathe now, and in a short time they became a cold corpse at their disposal. The cold god spoke to me by manipulating the body of Sir Waymar Royce , wants me to be his slave——White Walker!"

Gao Yuan's answer immediately caused an uproar at the dinner party, especially when they heard that the cold god manipulated the dead Sir Waymar to talk to Gao Yuan, the knights, princes and captains present couldn't help but gasped.

Only Sir Waymar's father and his brother Sir Anda showed pain on their faces at the scene. Gao Yuan had never told them about all this.They didn't dare to think about the pain that Waymar Royce suffered before his death. Even after his death, he was controlled by the ancient alien gods, and his soul was trapped in that cold body and he couldn't get rid of it. It was worse than being dragged into the hell of the Seven Gods.

"Lord Gao Yuan!" Earl Jon Royce stood up impressively, "I would like to ask you, has my son's soul been liberated?"

"Earl Yon, please rest assured that your son's body has been burned to ashes by the flames. I believe that Sir Jon Royce's soul has returned to the embrace of the Seven Gods." Gao Yuan is not trying to comfort the other party, Yon Royce's body was indeed incinerated after he transformed into a rune dragon.

It's just that Gao Yuan can't know whether the soul of Sir Jon Royce has really returned to the embrace of the Seven Gods.Whether the Seven Gods really exist in this world is still unknown, and how does he know that the soul of the other party has returned to the embrace of the Seven Gods!

"You are all named under the light of the seven gods, do you treat the gods your fathers believed in like this now?" Seeing that Stannis was bewitched by Melisandre and Gao Yuan, the nearly eighty-year-old The bachelor finally couldn't stand it anymore.He is determined to stand up and wake up those people who have been confused by the absurd and bizarre ghost stories, which naturally includes his own children.

"So impatient to abandon and cast aside the gods that my ancestors believed in!" The old bachelor Cresen shouted towards the audience, "The so-called true god that the red-robed woman said has no power at all here."

"Master Cressen, seeing you are so scared, what are you afraid of?" Melisandre walked up to the old bachelor calmly, and stroked his cheek with her hand, "Old bones who are angry and frightened , are you trying to prevent me from identifying Lord Stannis as the reincarnation of Azor Ahai?"

"Come on, use the poison you have prepared!" Melisandre raised the cuff of the old bachelor, reached in and took out the purple crystal. He showed his hand to everyone, "Old Maester Cressen, please tell everyone what is this one in my hand?"

"And what effect will it have?"

"Its name is 'Strangling'!" The old bachelor Cressen's hands couldn't stop shaking, but he still tried to remain calm, "As long as it is put into wine and melted, it will make the drinker's throat The muscles in the neck tighten violently, causing its trachea to be blocked. It is said that the face of the victim will often show the same purple color as this crystal, and the symptoms are exactly the same as those of people who choked to death."

"To prove that our great Allah, the Lord of Light, still has power here!" The red-robed woman walked to Stannis' table and picked up the wine glass he drank, and in front of everyone present, poured The poison in that hand was thrown into the red liquid that was still half a cup away.

After gently shaking the wine in the glass and making it completely melted, she immediately drank the red liquid in the glass without hesitation: "The holy fire will protect believers and cleanse away all evil and sin!"

After Melisandre drank the highly poisonous wine, she looked at the audience with a smile on her face, and at the same time the blood ruby ​​in the throat of the red-robed woman was shining brightly.

One second, two seconds. Minutes passed, and Melisandre, who drank the poisonous drink from the "Strangler", was still safe and sound.Maester Cresen also stared at her with wide eyes, but the red-robed woman turned her head and stared at his shocked expression with pity, candle flames danced wildly in those blood-red eyes.
