Danny sneered and said, "Don't be a fake immortal. You guys were dozens of times worse than me back then."
"That's why we suffered retribution! We killed too many creatures and harmed the harmony of heaven. That's why the Mother Goddess fell into the abyss. That's why the prosperity of the Loyna civilization declined. Overnight, it was destroyed at its peak. "Old Tortoise lamented.
"Even 'harmony of heaven' and 'destiny of the nation' are mentioned. Old Tortoise, you seem to have some skills." Danny said strangely.
"Weren't you the one who told me? Last time in Gedo, when we were talking about the dangers of killing the Crab King who contributed to the world, you were talking about the path of destiny. "Old Tortoise said.
"But I didn't talk about the destiny of the nation … Forget it." Danny waved her hand and returned to the topic. "I'll bear all the sins alone. Are you willing to do it?"
"I'm the one who did it!" Old Tortoise frowned.
"Let me tell you a story. In the ancient …"
Dragon Queen, who liked to tell stories such as "Scholar Lai", "Scholar Bao", "Scholar Yang", "Scholar Guan", and other "Scholar Series Stories", was stuck.
Old Tortoise was tens of thousands of years old. It was even older than the oldest country today. There was no way to deceive … cough cough, there was no way to use stories to enlighten it!
Without any other choice, Dragon Queen could only start to make it a figurehead.
"In the ancient alternate world, there was a queen named 'Yellow Emperor'. She gathered thousands of people and swore to overthrow the rule of the great slave master 'Chiyou'.
A Megalosaurus named 'Yinglong' rushed to help. During that time, Yinglong killed countless people, but he didn't have a trace of sin on him.
In the end, the Yellow Emperor even gave an imperial decree on behalf of the heavens. Yinglong achieved the position of the Ancestral Dragon with great merits, which made him the main god of the Megalosaurus. "
In the end, Dragon Queen concluded, "Participating in a just war, no matter how many people you kill, you're not guilty. Therefore, you won't suffer retribution. Instead, you'll have great achievements."
"This story sounds too fake. I don't believe that there's a Yellow Emperor, Chiyou, and Yinglong in the alternate world!" Old Tortoise shook its head wisely.
Sigh, this old tortoise … is too smart. The Dragon Queen finally told him a real story, but he was not fooled!
"The story is true, and the theory is even more true. Your theory of merit was also heard from me, so why don't you believe the words of an expert?" Dragon Queen said seriously.
Old Tortoise didn't believe Yinglong's story, but he trusted the expert.
Hearing this, he couldn't help but hesitate. Perhaps the Dragon Queen told a fake story, but the theory of merit in it was correct?
Participating in a righteous war was also doing righteous things. It was very reasonable for one to gain merit!
Thinking of this, Old Tortoise was somewhat tempted. He asked, "How can we tell if this is a just war?
Last time, Loyna fought Valleglia because Valleglia invaded Loyna's territory along the Rohn River. It seems like we're the righteous ones! "
"That's not right." Dragon Queen looked up at the sky and sighed, "Judging whether a war is just or not is actually very simple. The winner is king, and the king must be righteous. In other words, whoever wins is righteous. "
Old Turtle …
"Then are you righteous?" He asked dryly.
"Of course." Dragon Queen had a matter-of-fact expression on her face. "Along the way, I've always won, and I've always been righteous.
If you're willing to cooperate, there will be no loss in the final battle. There's no one more righteous than me. "
Old Tortoise was speechless.
Other things aside, if he was willing to cooperate with Dragon Queen's plan, she would definitely win.
Then, should he fight for justice?
Old Tortoise hesitated for a moment and nodded, "I'm willing to stay … to uphold justice! But is there really merit to be gained from this kind of justice? "
"That's right." Dragon Queen smiled and nodded. She asked in return, "If the winner doesn't have merit, can he win? Or rather, a person of merit who is blessed by the heavens, can he fail? "
"This …" Old Tortoise's green eyes widened. He was dumbfounded.
After thinking for a while, Old Tortoise still couldn't get out of the circle of "merit". He could only sigh helplessly. His wisdom was indeed not as good as the Holy Spirit's.
Er, actually, the Dragon Queen was trying to change the concept. Let's not talk about whether or not there is merit in this world. If a person with great merit were to do something unjust and use up all his merit, he would still fail.
A person without merit could also succeed if he did something righteous and accumulated merit.
Soon, Danny and Old Tortoise made a sacred oath to each other and formed an alliance to deal with the sheep egg together.
Well, they had to make a sacred oath. Otherwise, when Old Tortoise asked her to "put down the butcher's knife and repent before it's too late", wouldn't she cry to death?
This was also in line with the customs of the Song of Ice and Fire world. Wade Frey and Robb's alliance had also made an oath … Well, this example wasn't good.
In the War of the Usurpers, wolves, fish, eagles, and deer also made an oath.
After swearing an oath and becoming an ally, Dani had 100% confidence in the future battle of Meereen. She suddenly felt much more relaxed and asked with a smile, "Other than the 'Old Man in the River', do you have a name?"
"No, that's my name," Old Tortoise said.
"You can call me 'Danny', but I think it's a bit weird to call you 'The Old Man in the River'," Danny said.
"'Old Man', 'Old Man', 'Old Tortoise' are all fine. You can call me whatever you want," Old Tortoise said.
Danny rolled her eyes twice and suggested with a smile, "Since we're already allies, there should be a primary and secondary relationship in the alliance.
I'll be the primary, I'll resist the lightning; you'll be the secondary, you'll help from the side, right? "
Since ancient times, which alliance didn't have an alliance leader?
"Well, so?" Old Tortoise also agreed with Danny's words.
"I'm the Queen, so I should have the Queen's Hand. Let's not talk about the Queen's Hand in politics, but I have another identity, the Witch Queen of the Transcendent World.
The Witch Queen should also have the Transcendent Queen's Hand. I think you're quite suitable, "Danny finished and looked at Old Tortoise with sincere and expectant eyes.
Old Tortoise seemed to be moved by her sincerity and nodded gently. "With the divine power you have now, you're also qualified to be called the Witch Queen, but we're only allies temporarily …"
"You'll be the temporary Queen's Hand until the alliance ends and the oath is fulfilled. You can leave at any time.
During this period, there's only the two of us in the alliance, so you don't have any responsibilities, "Danny said immediately.
Old Tortoise thought carefully. It would only take a few months, so it was not a big deal to be called the Queen's Hand.
After all, Dragon Queen was so powerful that she even stewed the Crab King. She was also the main force in the "Anti-Sheep Egg Alliance," so it was not a disgrace to be under her as the River God of the Loen River.
"Okay," he said.
"Very well, I'll call you 'Turtle Prime Minister' from now on." Danny said a little eagerly, and then sighed with emotion. "Turtle Prime Minister, it's so smooth, it sounds so familiar!"
Isn't the King's Hand the Prime Minister?
What's wrong with calling him 'Turtle Prime Minister'?
Turtle Prime Minister did not have any objections, and gladly accepted the fact that he was affectionately called "Turtle Prime Minister" by Dragon Queen.
Dragon Queen looked at her Turtle Prime Minister's island-sized body and was full of confidence. With Turtle Prime Minister, there's no need for sea monsters!
Turtle Prime Minister felt uncomfortable under Dragon Queen's passionate gaze. He shrunk his neck and said, "Your Majesty, it's almost dawn. I should go to Meereen."
Danny looked up to the east, but the sky was dark and heavy. There was not even a shadow of the sun.
"Ah, there's no hurry. Actually, I have one more thing that I need your help with, Turtle Prime Minister!"
"What is it?" Turtle Prime Minister was puzzled.
"I want to learn water magic. Can you teach me?" Danny asked expectantly.
In the tomb of the Green Prophet beyond the Great Wall, after eating the weirwood paste, her belt's second soul combined with the nine-colored vortex's main soul, giving birth to the third, fourth, and fifth soul of the belt, each corresponding to a dragon's soul. There were a total of three semi-independent souls that appeared because of the dragon's soul.
The first soul was based on the Grand Wizard Meditation Technique, and had stolen a trace of the Song of Fire from the sheep's egg. The second soul had mastered the Green Prophet Meditation Technique, and was condensing the Song of Wind.
The third, fourth, and fifth souls were blank. It was too wasteful to only use them for the dragon's soul. She wanted to master three more top-level meditation techniques.
There was no doubt that when it came to water magic, no one could compare to the Loynar people who flooded the city with forbidden spells.
When she just returned from the Westeros, Danny also looked for Quentin Martell.
Quentin was a direct descendant of Nymeria, and they should have inherited the magic of the Loynar Water Wizards.
This was not a delusion. Nymeria had led ten thousand ships across the narrow sea to Yang Halberd City of Dorne, and brought a lot of advanced technology to the primitive and barbaric Dorne, including the knowledge of water magic.
Because of the Dorne Desert, Nymeria had also let the water mages use magic to irrigate the fields.
But after Nymeria, Dorne's water magic no longer appeared in the world. The strange Loynar customs of the Dornese were also more famous than the invisible water magic.
At first, Danny thought that the Westeros were a magical desert, and that the descendants of the Dornese Martell had no talent.
She had asked Quentin, and Quentin had said that the Martell family had always kept the inheritance of their ancestors' magic, but no one had ever learned it.
Then, through Old Bart's message, Danny tried to borrow a secret book of water magic from Prince Michio.
She thought that it would take a lot of effort, but who would have thought that Michio would be so generous and send a whole set of water magic books to the Queen's Corner.
Uh, the Dragon Queen still did not know that her black disciple was a Sand Snake.
She had even imparted the Grand Wizard Meditation Technique to Saleira (Sand Snake's original name, but with Danny, she was called Larissa … For some reason, she thought of Pilgrim Sun and Pilgrim Sun), so why would Michio care about his own family's water magic that no one could learn?
After reading the secret book of water magic passed down in the Martell family, Danny finally understood the reason why Loy had taken water magic.
It was not natural magic, but a systematic cultivation technique for the priests of the Water God.
Simply put, Loy's water mages were not mages, but a group of priests, priests of the Mother Loen's pantheon.
Their magic did not rely on their own power to move the Sea of Magic, but on the power of the Mother Goddess.
It was just like how Big Sparrow borrowed Blackie's Holy Mother Healing Spell.
If there was a day when something happened to Blackie, Big Sparrow would not be able to use Holy Mother Healing Spell no matter how devout she was.
Similarly, the Mother Loen had fallen into an eternal slumber, and the pantheon of the Loen River had withered, so the Water God's divine spells would naturally not be able to be used.
Therefore, Danny did not find the top water meditation technique that she wanted in the Dornese Martell family.
"A person can only master one type of meditation technique, because the human soul has its limits, just like how a piece of land can only be used to build a house.
You should know this, but you already have the top Grand Wizard Meditation Technique, so how can you learn water magic? "The Turtle Chancellor was puzzled.
"My soul is special, and my 'foundation' is vast, so I can build a few more houses," Danny said.
The Turtle Chancellor sighed and said, "The talent of a Sacred Spirit is really enviable."
"You don't seem to find it strange?" Danny asked curiously.
"I've even seen beings who have mastered many types of Songs of Law. You've only learned one more meditation technique."
"Then are you willing to teach me?"
