The Sea King could be muddle-headed, but every Sea King was chosen by the city's professors and the Iron Treasury. At the beginning of the election, the Sea King could not be muddle-headed. If he wanted to be muddle-headed, he would have to wait for more than ten years. When he got older and started to slack off, he would be muddle-headed.
Well, the Sea King was a lifelong ruler.
Tormo Freygar was thirty-five years old this year. He was 1.9 meters tall, burly and strong, with a firm square face and a body full of explosive power.
He was in the prime of his life. He was skilled in martial arts, quick-witted and energetic. There were no major flaws in his character. Like the previous Sea Kings, he was an excellent leader.
Therefore, when the Iron Treasury represented Tai Chu and brought Erlu's plan to the King's Landing to the Sea King's Palace, Tormo did not refuse.
Not only did he not refuse, but he immediately called for a meeting with the professors in charge of the Kingdom of Braavos and the Iron Treasury's key keeper to the palace to discuss this matter.
It was no secret that there were icebergs on the sea.
In the northernmost part of the Trembling Sea, ships often encountered icebergs.
Seeing that the weather was getting colder day by day, they also understood that it was not impossible for Braavos and the Westeros to be connected by icebergs one day.
Therefore, they made two decisions at that time. First, they formed the Narrow Sea Icebreaker Fleet, which was to arrange a fishing fleet around Braavos to fish and monitor the icebergs. Second, they recruited twenty thousand mercenaries and five hundred wildfire mages to the King's Landing. They would bring their own rations and ships to help the Westeros defend the capital.
The people of Braavos had never heard of the story of how the teeth would be cold without the lips, but the principle was the same. The Westeros had become a world of ghosts. Sooner or later, tens of millions of ghouls would enter the continent of Ursos.
Any leader with a little foresight did not want to see the day when they would "mend the leak in the heart of the river".
Sending twenty thousand troops at this time was just a drop in the ocean for them. When the King's Landing fell, they would suffer great losses if they wanted to mend the pen after the sheep were lost.
The Sea King Tormo even decided that he would personally lead the people of Braavos to the King's Landing.
He wrote letters to Dragonstone Island and the Iron Throne of King's Landing, expressing his attitude.
The Dragon Queen was very happy. Not only did she agree to provide all the weapons and supporting priests for the volunteer army, but she also sent 500,000 atonement scrolls to the Ocean Palace so that the people of Braavos could also feel the love of the Holy Mother.
When he saw the two huge boxes full of atonement scrolls, Sea King Tormo refused in his heart, because the people of Braavos had the House of Black and White. They did not need to go to the heaven of the seven gods.
If not for the fact that his fear of Dragon Queen and Deathwing had not dissipated, the Sea King would have thrown them all into the fireplace for warmth.
Even if they were not burned, the people of Braavos did not distribute the atonement scrolls. Instead, they shelved them and treated them lightly.
But just as the people of Braavos were preparing to go to war, the Westeros detonated two big bombs in succession: the fall of the Western Region and the fall of the King's Landing.
The fall of the Western Region, millions of ghouls, like moldy spots, quickly "tainted" half of the southern Westeros. Unless a real god descended to earth, the Westeros were doomed.
Especially the fire of the King's Landing and the invasion of the city by the deviant ghosts, even the Sea King Tormo despaired.
The people of Braavos retreated. They did not think that there would really be a god descending to earth.
In this way, it was delayed until the Great Judgement. Before the Great Judgement, the Dragon Queen led the Volunteer Army like a god descending from heaven. After the Great Judgement, the people of Braavos feared the Bran like a demon.
"Maybe, without our support, the Westeros can also defend the King's Landing?" Tormo shook his head. "Defending the King's Landing is meaningless. Maybe, the child of prophecy is Danny Rize, she can end the Long Night."
"Stannis is not without hope. His two-headed dragon, I heard that a few days ago, he burned the castles of three nobles who surrendered to the deviant ghosts.
That is terrifying!
Moreover, almost all the red-robed monks in the city of Ursus went to the King's Landing to support him. It is obvious that he is the savior mentioned in Lahlo Asha's prophecy, "said the Head Doctor in a deep voice.
"But he is much weaker than Danny Rize, especially with the addition of the Three-Eyed Crow, the Westeros are completely under her control.
I am afraid that after the Long Night ends, the world will return to the situation where one family dominated the world during the time of Valleglia, "lamented Tormo.
"I heard that her situation is not good," said the Head Doctor in a hesitant tone. Looking at the Key Man Besaro hesitantly said, "Your Majesty the Sea King, Sir Steward, I wonder if you've asked the master of the Moon Chanter Temple to calculate …"
"The Twilight of the Gods, the Long Night of the Gods." He lowered his voice to the lowest level.
Silence filled the hall. The eyes of the elders became vigilant and sharp.
"The news has spread? You all know? "After a while, the Sea King asked.
The Head Doctor and the Head Doctor looked at each other and nodded slightly.
"The high priests in the various temples have received similar prophecies," said a Head Doctor.
The Sea King lamented, "The war between the gods has nothing to do with us mortals, but she is Danny Rize, the future First Empress of the world.
I have been to the Moon Chanter Temple. The River of Fate is chaotic, and no one knows the future.
However, we can gather information from all sides. Now, we can confirm that the Twilight of the Gods is very likely to happen.
If in the war between the gods, Danny Rize is as invincible and unstoppable as she was in the mortal world, the Twilight of the Gods will turn into the Long Night of the Gods. "
"Hiss! She left no leeway? "Everyone gasped.
"Did she leave any leeway for the World Alliance? The flood outside Meereen City was obviously prepared for many days. She wanted to wipe out the World Alliance from the beginning, "said Tormo with a bitter smile.
"What is the worst outcome?" The Head Doctor sighed and said helplessly, "We have decided to pay the Dragon Queen's debt. The worst outcome is to return to four hundred years ago. The True Dragon ruled the world, and Braavos became a regional power.
Let's not get involved in the affairs of the gods. Let's talk about whether we should send reinforcements to the King's Landing! It has been more than a month, and the favor has become a debt. "
"There must be reinforcements," said the Sea King. "It is snowing in Braavos, and the north wind is blowing. There is no production in the dark, and people freeze and starve to death every day.
It is also beneficial for us to end the Long Night a day earlier.
Now, I am afraid that our people will go to the King's Landing and be caught between the Red Robed Monk and the Seven Gods.
According to my original intention, it is better to contact the Dragon Queen alone and incorporate the Braavos Volunteers into the Volunteer Corps.
But if we do that, it will be equivalent to us supporting Danny Rize as Queen, and we will not be able to recover the millions of gold royals we owe to Stannis. "
"Alas, why is the Dragon Queen unwilling to accept the debt? It is only four or five million gold royals, "said the Doctor.
"Your Majesty, my lords, there is news from the Moon Chanter Temple." At this moment, the Sea King's court officer walked quickly into the Council Hall, and said with a serious expression, "The gods have left Braavos!"
"What do you mean? Speak clearly. "The Sea King was confused.
"Your Majesty, all the gods on the Islands of the Gods have left Braavos," said the court officer.
"All the gods?" The Sea King was shocked.
"Yes."
"Why? Is there a catastrophe in Braavos, and they are hiding from it? "The Doctor suddenly stood up, his face pale.
"I am not sure. Your Majesty, you should go to the Moon Chanter Temple in person. There are some things that the high priest can only tell you," said the court officer.
"Today's Imperial Conference ends here. I will go to the Islands of the Gods."
Because the people of Braavos were a combination of many ethnic groups, they had truly achieved freedom of worship, and all the gods in the world were respected by them.
Just like the School of Black and White worshiped all the gods of death, the Islands of the Gods worshiped all the gods in the world.
Even the Seven Gods had a temple on the Islands of the Gods called the Outer Sanctum, which was mainly for Westeros sailors to worship.
The most magnificent temple on the Islands of the Gods belonged to neither the Red God nor the School of Black and White, but the Moon Chanter Temple.
It was the Moon Chanter who led the first slaves to Braavos.
It was a building that was completely white in the moonlight.
It was a huge snow-white marble palace with a large silver dome, and milky white glass windows that showed the different states of the moon.
Beside each door was a pair of tall marble maidens, supporting the crescent-shaped beams.
The maidens and the moon were the representatives of the Moon Chanter.
The short and fat high priest led a group of men and women in white priest robes to receive the Sea King.
"Because of Danny Rize's team of preachers! Recently, there is a saying in the supernatural world that if you eat a holy monk from the Western Sanctum, you can live forever. Everyone is tempted, "she said directly.
"You can live forever by eating people? Are you kidding me? "the Sea King shouted in disbelief.
"Won't you live forever if you become a god?"
"Uh …" the Sea King was stunned. "You can live forever if you become a god, but is it so easy to become a god?"
"It's not easy, so this is a rare opportunity. They all left."
"What's going on? Tell me the whole story. I'm not a supernatural, so I don't understand." the Sea King frowned.
The old woman with sallow skin and a pointy head sighed helplessly and asked, "Do you know about the team of preachers?
More than a month ago, there was news from the Barbarian Capital that the Blue House of Bo would establish the Church of the Seven Gods as the national religion, and appoint Matthew, an eminent monk from the Western Sanctum, as the national guardian. "
"I really didn't know about that. The long night fell, and most of the news between Braavos and the outside world was cut off." the Sea King shook his head.
"No wonder. I only found out about it after contacting the main temple on the Jugesnai Plains through the glass candle."
"What does that mean?" the Sea King asked curiously.
"This is the most influential event in the transcendent world of the Barbarian Land in the past few thousand years! Before this, the Barbarian Land never had a national religion, nor a national guardian. It's too hateful.
Think about it, even the Jugesnai Plains, which is thousands of miles away from the Barbarian Capital, has spread the news. "
Seeing that the Sea King was still confused, the old zebra man said, "This is equivalent to announcing a temple in Braavos as the ruler of the Islands of the Gods."
"Gods, this —" the Sea King exclaimed, completely understanding the impact of this. "I'm afraid the other churches are going to explode."
The fat zebra man nodded. "The Barbarian Land is already exploding. The three Great Emperors have issued a declaration of rebellion. A total of eighteen temples, thirty-six rebellious kings, seventy-two smokes, and one hundred and eight mountains (ps) have pledged to take down the Barbarian Capital, kill the fatuous king, annihilate the Bo family, slaughter the cultivators, and destroy all the temples of the Seven Gods."
"This, this, the Blue House of Bo is going to be destroyed! I remember five years ago, you told me that the Bo family had at least a hundred years of national fate. "the Sea King was shocked.
"Five years ago, I didn't know that the long night was coming." the fat woman said awkwardly.
"Who are the rebels?" the Sea King asked again.
