I became the old one

Chapter 140 The Adventure of Ares, the Disaster from the Western Continent

The world named Noland, where the dragon descendants live, has a geographical environment very similar to that of Blue Star in the previous life.

There are also regularly moving ocean currents in the vast ocean of Noland's world. Ocean currents can be roughly divided into warm currents and cold currents. When two ocean currents of different temperatures collide with each other, the kinetic energy generated is enough to make the sea water deep. The silt and various nutrients are lifted up to form a natural fishing ground.

Hundreds of kilometers away from Winterfell City, near the coast, there is such a natural fishing ground with abundant resources.

Since the Ice Age, the Dragonborn and the deep divers broke out after the second battle of the abyss.

Offshore areas are no longer threatened by deep divers.

Since then, fish has also become an important part of the dragonborn's extensive diet.Outside this natural fishing ground, there is a small town named Magunis.

The population in the town is not large, only about [-] dragon descendants live here.

They simply pickled the sea fish caught from the fishing grounds and transported them to nearby cities in order to pay taxes in exchange for various necessary living materials.

Since the end of the Ice Age.

The towns of Magunis have appeared on this coastline for hundreds of years.

Today, the sun is shining.

The climate in the north also seems to be getting warmer with the bright sun.

The mayor of the town is an old dragonborn named Gulie. He was born at the beginning of the Ice Age, so he is much taller than ordinary dragonborn.

In the early morning, after breakfast, Gu Lie went for a walk by the beach as usual.

Seeing the sunshine and the silvery white swimming fish passing by in the sparkling sea water, Gu Lie's mood also became better.

Just at this time.

Gu Lie saw a black object slapping on the sand along the silvery white foam.

Under the trend of curiosity, Gu Lie walked towards the black unknown object. After getting closer, the elderly dragonborn discovered that the black object was not a dead thing, but a dragonborn. It is a strange life form that is similar in appearance but completely different in details.

The humanoid creature has thick black hair on its head, smooth body surface, no scales, but tough bronze skin.

In addition, this life is extraordinarily tall.

In Bigulie's impression, his parents were a whole head taller.

Gu Lie didn't know where this guy came from, and what happened to him in the mysterious sea. This strange life seemed to have lost his consciousness, lying motionless on the ground, with seawater in his mouth and nose. seep out.

However, even so.

The humanoid life did not die, and Gu Lie could hear a strong heartbeat coming from his chest.

Even, when Gu Lie approached him, he could still feel the amazing heat emanating from his body.After leaving the sea water, the body surface of the humanoid life began to emit white smoke quickly, the steam was hazy, and all the sea water was evaporated within a few breaths, leaving only a few grains of salt mixed in the gaps between the hair and clothes among.

After some thought.

Gu Lie still summoned a few young dragon descendants, and together they dragged the monster to a village by the coast.

At the same time, Gu Lie also ordered his children to set off for Winterfell.

After hundreds of years of development, under the leadership of the Fire Academy, Winterfell City has once again restored its former prosperity, and today it is the largest city in the northern border of the Dragonborn Empire.

There are many well-informed scholars in Winterfell, although Gu Lie himself doesn't know what this life is.

But the wise scholars and priests in the Fire Academy will definitely understand.

Gu Lie's eldest son set out with the order, and not long after he left, the humanoid life lying unconscious on the ground opened his eyes, and he half sat up from the floor with a snap, his eagle-like sharp eyes looked at him vigilantly. Around, when seeing Gu Lie and other dragon descendants, the face of this humanoid life was obviously surprised.

Gu Lie tried to communicate with this life with gestures and simple language.

To Gu Lie's surprise, this humanoid life showed amazing intelligence, mastered the language of the dragonborn in just a few hours, and could communicate unimpeded.

The humanoid life is naturally Ares who was expelled from the holy mountain of Olympus by Zeus several years ago.

During the past few years.

Ares wandered alone on the sea, wandering aimlessly.When you encounter an island, you can go forward and take a rest. If you can’t see the land, you can close your eyes and drift with the current in the sea.

Even without divine power.

Ares is still the son of the god king, possessing a powerful vitality unimaginable by mortals.

He fell asleep in the dark sea and moved forward with the ocean current. Every time he woke up, the scenery he saw was different. At the beginning, Ares was a little excited and curious, but soon the similar emotions faded away. Exhausted, leaving only boring and uninteresting.

but…

What Ares didn't expect was that after waking up this time, he actually saw intelligent life!

Regardless of whether it is the Eastern Continent or the Western Continent, the Ice Age is a complete catastrophe, but when the catastrophe is over, the flames of civilization will burn in a more rapid manner.

In the past hundreds of years, with the establishment of city-states, humans multiplied on the Western Continent.

The gods on the holy mountain of Olympus have gradually realized that the sacrifices and beliefs of mortals have some kind of strange power, this power is more intoxicating than the sweetest wine, it can change their essence, enhance their strength.

On the holy mountain of Olympus, the gods who are high above are often flushed and even fight because of the competition between beliefs.

Now, Ares was banished from the western continent by Zeus.

The temples he has worked so hard to build over the past few hundred years will inevitably be abandoned, and the beliefs he has collected with great difficulty may also be divided up by the rest of the greedy gods.

During the period of leaving the Western Continent, Ares grieved for this established fact for a long time.

However, there is no such thing as an absolute path.

Ares actually discovered a brand new world at the other end of the sea!

The young god was shocked at first, and then uncontrollably joyful, but after coming to a new environment, especially after losing his divine power, Ares became a little calmer.

He didn't immediately choose to clash with these mortals and establish his belief in this land.

Instead, I plan to get to know the basic information of this continent with the dragon descendants in front of me, to see if there are gods who have already arrived first.

Coincidentally, the mayor of the small town of Magunis, the elderly dragon-born Gulie, is also a very hospitable host.Ares's appearance seemed very strange to the dragonborn, but since he had shown his wisdom and could communicate with language, Gulie still treated Ares as his important guest.

Gu Lie quickly ordered his children to arrange a banquet for the guest.

Grilled fish after research, fresh fruits and vegetables picked from the forest, and home-brewed wine are all served on the table.

Ares is also not polite, and the food of the dragonborn can only be regarded as mediocre in Ares.However, Ares has been hungry in the sea for several years, and he has a vulgar and reckless character, so he has no special requirements for food, as long as he can fill his stomach.

Ares gulped down the food from the banquet into his stomach.

I heard that the old mayor picked up a strange-looking life by the sea, and the news spread in the small town, attracting many young dragon descendants to come and watch from a distance.

"God Primordial Fire, I have never seen a life with such a good appetite, even a rough stone tyrannosaurus here will never have your appetite!"

Seeing Ares eating like this, the old mayor couldn't help but sighed with emotion.

Close to rich fishing grounds, the town is not short of food.

On the contrary, the guest from afar was able to eat happily, which made the mayor feel sincerely happy.

"You just said...you have gods you believe in?" Gu Lie subconsciously sighed, but it caught Ares' attention.The God of War raised his head, stared at Gu Lie with glowing pupils, and then asked: "Then, old Dragonborn, can you tell me about the god you believe in?"

"sure…"

The belief in the primordial fire is the oldest and most dominant among dragonborn.There are a lot of myths related to the primordial fire that have been handed down from ancient times, even a three-year-old child can talk about it.

From the fall of the magic star to the first battle of the abyss.From the establishment of the Dragonborn Dynasty to the end of the Ice Age, those ancient myths were vividly described by the old mayor.

Ares listened in surprise.

Judging from the performance in these myths and stories, this god probably possesses considerable power.

However, Ares was not intimidated.Myths are often spread out after exaggeration, so although there is reference value, there is not much.

"By the way, we also have an altar and sculpture for the gods here. If you want to travel on the Eastern Continent, you can pray to the great primordial fire to obtain his protection." Gu Lie said enthusiastically, hoping This alien being can take refuge in the primordial flame like the dragonborn.

"Okay, take me to see it."

Ares didn't think much, and nodded in agreement.

He needs to see what kind of power the gods of this world possess, so as to determine his next action plan.

Soon, under the leadership of Gulie, Ares walked towards the high place of the village.In a valley with a beautiful environment, some crude altars were built and worshiped by dragon descendants.

On the altar made of black stones stood a black beast.

The beast was armored and scaled, looking up to the sky and howling.Although it was only made of mortal stone, it revealed an astonishing aura from top to bottom.The sculpture is imposing, but there is no extraordinary power emanating from the altar, which is completely different from the temple in Ares' impression.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Ariston immediately felt relieved.

He opened his arms, laughed loudly, and his voice echoed in the valley like thunder: "How stupid you guys are, to let an ugly beast be your god."

"Now, abandon your so-called gods and take refuge under my throne."

Ares seems to have seen his belief spread across the vast continent, and countless dragon descendants kneel down and worship after seeing the real god.

In the future... Hundreds of years later, with the help of the beliefs of all living beings on a complete continent, he may be able to have the power to surpass Zeus, become a new king of gods, and become the true master of the two continents.

Thinking of this, Ares trembled with excitement. He laughed wildly, "What you believe in is just a powerless beast, and I am the doomed master of your destiny!"
