Chapter 56: You can't mess around

In the world of Ice and Fire, there is no nobility to move a single step? This statement, while somewhat absolute, is almost true at least in Westeros. No one is Long Aotian. When you enter this world, you have to play the game under the rules of this world. But Igor sees it more transparently and more fundamentally than ordinary people: the nobility system is just the rules of the game on the surface of Westeros, but there are deeper and more basic rules behind it: all problems are problems of resources and strength.

The messenger of the Iron Vault is just an ordinary employee, but even Queen Cersei, who has eliminated all dissidents in the original play and is extremely arrogant in King's Landing one hand shrouding the heavens, has to be polite to meet her Angry, is it because he has any title? No, because he represents Braavos across the Narrow Sea. After the establishment of the established Sect regiment, High Sparrow can cover a bunch of kings and queens in dirt. Is it because of the title and the support of The Seven? No, it's because there are both soldiers and popular support, and the opponent also has pig teammate assists. After Littlefinger was named Harrenhal, he instantly became one of the highest-ranking nobles in Westeros, but if it wasn't for the fact that he had already hooked up with the mistress of Vale of Arryn, he was a fart?

In the final analysis, aristocratic status is the tool, not the reason, for the upper class of Westeros to control resources - there are people who control resources in the world, and then there are nobles.

Understanding the causal relationship here, it will be clear what to do. As long as oneself has the resources, even if oneself hangs the label of Night's Watch all his life, even if his legal social status is lower than that of a trifling Knight, he can still turn his hands into clouds and turn his hands into rain.

With this belief in mind, Igor planned.

......

His original plan was to first use the Ponzi scheme for primordial accumulation, use logistical supplies and oneself to "recruit" and insert people into the defenders of The Wall Come to fatten the Night's Watch Legion, boil the frog with warm water, make the Night's Watch Legion become dependent on oneself, so as to slowly double kidnap this armed force independent of the major forces in material and spirit, first ensure the safety and security of oneself. free.

Then, use the capital at hand and the advanced knowledge possessed by oneself to build a huge community of interests in Westeros - wait until the time is right, then use energy and resources cautiously, participate in the Game of Thrones, and look for Oneself's method of releasing the identity of Night's Watch, and began to explore the possibility of anti-travel.

＊＊＊

Igor had a plan and was ready to use his wits and knowledge to have a lot of fun with people, but before it all started, Melisandre suddenly Appeared... Quietly revealed to him a corner of the world's stage curtain, allowing him to see the grander and more terrifying truth beneath the chaotic appearance.

A little over a month ago, Igor suspected that an important plot could not be changed because of Bran's fall. However, the fact that Tyrion successfully returned to King's Landing later overturned the previous conclusion... It is precisely because of the judgment that this world has no "destiny" or any other "existence in the dark", Igor will be proud, Let the thinking follow the reins, make a huge plan in a short period of time, and prepare to work hard in this world and rewrite everything.

But now, the words of the Red Woman witch are nothing short of a blow: transcendent forces do exist and are affecting the human world! Tyrion can successfully return to King's Landing, but the "gods" just don't have the time to live with him!

Igor now feels like he was quietly hiding in the room when he was a child and was about to play games and watch movies for a while, but when he looked up, he found a camera on the ceiling, and his excitement was instantly extinguished. For the most part - being stared at by a father-level existence without dead ends, who can get excited?

......

Melisandre saw Igor for a long time without saying a word, thinking he was terrified by what oneself told, disdain in his heart, tough guy in Night's Watch, Killer of Others, in aloof In the face of power, still shiver coldly.

"Is there anything else to ask." She did not show contempt, fearing transcendent power is such is human nature after all, oneself has also experienced this kind of shock: "Well, seeing as I am so For the sake of sincerity, may I also ask a few questions?"

The plan had to be changed, and he had to not only stay out of the sight of the nobles of Westeros, but also in those "Half God" and "True God" also keep a low profile in their field of vision. If so... At least half of the pieces of paper that oneself wrote down the plan can be directly burned: "Ask, I also know everything. .”

＊＊＊

For the next half hour, Igor continued to question and answer with Melisandre in a trance-like state. All the questions asked are about beyond the wall and The Wall... which means that Melisandre has no doubts about his status as an ordinary person Night's Watch Ranger, and on that basis he just needs to tell the whole truth That's good, no need to invent anything to avoid a weak spot.

By the time this exchange was over, Red God Priest's face was full of solemnity, and Igor also used this short period of time to try his best to overcome the panic.

Reason arrives slowly, but it is better than absence, Igor slows down and gradually wakes up: conspiracy theories can explain everything, but using conspiracy theories to explain everything is undoubtedly oneself scaring oneself. oneself fooled a bunch of plot characters with a bunch of half true half false lies, who can guarantee that Melisandre's words are not half true half false bluffs?
Not to mention, as a Red God believer, Melisandre was brainwashed by the Lord of Light, even if she told the truth, it did not mean it was the truth, just like Greenseer wanted to forge an Old Gods belief, who can Guaranteed that the Red God really exists? Who can guarantee that Melisandre is not another version of Jiujian·Reed, deceived by the god in oneself's heart?

Perhaps many of the stories in the original plot are indeed arranged or facilitated by those transcendent beings, but if you know this, you will think all day, "Does this person represent the interests of some god? "Is this scenario some god wants it to happen?" Then just do nothing, obediently and honestly go back to The Wall to fight wildling and kill Others.

Even if there is a group of guys who quietly influence the real world at the subconscious level, if there is no way to identify the individuals affected by it, and there is no way to judge what the gods want to happen, then for oneself, What is the difference between these gods and non-existence?
Ignore these transcendent existence, the plan remains! Just a little tweaking to make oneself more understated.

Igor's mind was clear, and the countermeasures came out soon: Now, oneself may not only pretend that oneself is a loyal Night's Watch when meeting outsiders, but also do it when there is no one around. Rather than act recklessly for one's own selfish interests, taking a clear stand on the opposite side of the faction to which Others belongs may not necessarily benefit, but at least it can ensure that the "god" on the side of Lord of Light and his servants... will not be for no reason. to deal with oneself.

As a mortal, oneself is too weak, not even qualified to be a wallflower... It's really troublesome.

"Cold God moves faster than expected." Melisandre didn't know what the opposite Igor was thinking, and she also had oneself troubles: "Fortunately, Lord of Light told me in the fire, Wall can stop the power of Cold God and stop his servants. We still have a lot of time to do before the winter comes and the sea freezes." She looked up towards Night's Watch, throwing off her excess expression and becoming serious: "So, black clothed friend , is there anything I can do to help Night's Watch."

Igor looked back, and after being called a heretic and a series of events, everything was finally back on track, at least Melisandre was hoping The fact that Night's Watch provides help will not be a fake, but unfortunately, Dragonstone can't get food and weapons, and there are not many people around Melisandre oneself, unless the witch Ken immediately abandoned and was mistakenly judged to be Azor Ahai and reborn Stannis going north to The Wall... or I'm afraid it won't help much.

Looking at the serious-looking witch, another huge question slowly emerged in Night's Watch's heart: Is the struggle between Gods a life-and-death battle for survival, or is it a battle between you and me? In other words - Priests like Others, Night's Watch and even Melisandre, in the eyes of those more detached beings, are soldiers and weapons serving themselves, or pawns in a game of leisure with other beings?

If this is clarified, subsequent changes to the plan will be clearer and more targeted.

Unfortunately, if you think about it with your toes, even if Melisandre is a believer in the Lord of Light, it is impossible to know the secrets of this level.

"Wall lacks everything, but what is most lacking at the moment is people and food and equipment, and I was sent for these." Igor sighed, shaking his head: "But I see Dragonstone's appearance, more than Night's Watch isn't much better - if you really want to help, take care of obsidian mining."

"No problem."

Wait, speaking of obsidian Mine, Igor just remembered a very important thing, how could oneself ignore this: "I almost forgot to ask, do you know the principle of the Dragonglass dagger to kill Others? If we can understand the mystery, we might Can think of more ways to deal with this shit."
