The dwarf opened his eyes in a daze and found himself in a warm and comfortable beige bedroom. There were no candles on the windowsill, only a flickering charcoal fire in the fireplace.
He wanted to move, but found that his entire body was in pain, especially his crotch. It was as if someone had peeled off his cucumber skin with a plane. It was extremely painful.
Moreover, he was like an old ox that had plowed the fields for three days and three nights, without a trace of strength.
"Water, give me water!" He opened his cracked lips and called out in a low voice.
"You're awake?" The fat eunuch Varis was like a cat, silently and gracefully walking from the outside to the bed.
"Water, I'm thirsty." The dwarf said.
Varis went out to get a pot of warm fresh milk.
"You drank so much the day before yesterday, why are you still thirsty?"
"Pfft — ugh!" The fat eunuch's words opened the floodgates of the dwarf's memories. Countless terrifying scenes and feelings poured into his mind.
He remembered what he had drunk, and he couldn't help but spit out the milk he had just drunk.
"Tell me, I just had a nightmare." The dwarf begged with a sobbing tone.
"Sigh, it's all in the past, just treat it as a dream!" Varis poured another cup of milk for the dwarf.
"Help me get a cup of water." The dwarf wiped his tears and said.
"You were unconscious for two or three days and didn't eat. Drinking milk will give you more strength." Varis advised.
The dwarf raised his cup and gulped down three large cups of wine in a row.
"Burp ~" When he burped, Varis smelled a bit of feces.
The eunuch's face was a bit distorted.
After taking a few breaths, the dwarf felt alive again, his strength returning to his body.
He propped himself up and leaned against the head of the bed, asking: "How did I survive?"
"We also found it strange that you didn't drown after being tossed around in the sea for more than ten minutes."
The dwarf shook his head and said: "I'm asking, who saved me? My body was modified by the Dragon Worm, and my organs were the first target. "
"So that's how it was." The fat eunuch sighed, and then told him what happened the day before yesterday.
"At first, Master Qizang and Stark thought it was the crocodile demons causing trouble, so they first killed the crocodile that was enjoying the king's blood under the altar.
The blood child Stark had also killed more than a dozen court priests.
But when we came back, we carefully thought about it and felt that we might have misunderstood the Crocodile Demon.
If he instructed the black-haired evil god to sneak attack the preacher, he would not hide in the sea so obediently. At least, he would let the priest arrange guards to ambush us.
The result was not like this, those priests were caught off guard. "
"What's done cannot be undone. Regardless of whether it was his scheme or not, he has to take the blame now. Otherwise, how are we going to answer to the Pentos people? "The fat eunuch sighed.
"Are you saying that the Evil God in the cesspool isn't targeting me?" The dwarf asked doubtfully.
"I was attacked too." The fat eunuch looked at his crotch and said self-deprecatingly, "Being a eunuch also has its benefits. The Evil God didn't manage to grab my little brother, and only left a few scratches on my buttocks. But I reacted quickly and escaped.
I think, at that time, no matter who went to the toilet, they would have made a move. It's just that you were unlucky, your dick was too strong. That force even caused the oak floor to collapse. "
Hearing this, the dwarf recalled what had happened the day before.
Pain!!!!
At that time, he was in so much pain that his soul almost left his body. Now, it was still so painful that he almost lost his sense of existence.
"The three evil gods died too easily. Matthew should have spared their lives. Pull out their tendons and skin them, break their bones and flesh, and torture them to death. Then throw their souls into hell and suffer for ten billion years." The dwarf gritted his teeth and said.
"What's the use of saying this now? They are dead. "Varys disagreed.
Tyrion was silent for a moment, then frowned and asked, "How did they know that we were going to the toilet? There is more than one toilet in the palace. Is there a spy who deliberately led us there? "
"The Pentos people tortured the eunuch who took us to the toilet. He didn't know anything and only chose the nearest public toilet to the altar," Varys said.
"Did you send a message to the queen? What did she say?" the dwarf asked again.
"She asked us to be more careful. Demons, ghosts, beauties, traps and tricks are common. After all, it's not easy to preach in the East, and it's easy to not achieve great results."
"Only these words to fool the deviant ghosts?" the dwarf raised his voice and shouted, "I almost lost my life!"
"She said some reasons. The situation in the Barbarians is not good." Varys sighed and told him about the Three Emperors' proclamation, the eighteen major sects, the thirty-six rebellious kings, the seventy-two smokes, and the one hundred and eight mountains.
"No one would have thought that the Barbarians' extraordinary sects would react so strongly to the orthodoxy and the state preceptor.
But if you think about it, it's reasonable.
In Westeros, the Church of the Seven Gods is the orthodoxy. The archbishop is equivalent to a state preceptor without a title. So, other than the Church of the Seven Gods, other religions have no place to survive. "
After a pause, Varys said strangely, "I heard that the two hundred rebellious vassals claimed to have an army of a million. They swore to raze the Barbarians to the ground and kill all those who believe in the Demonic Sect in the Jade Sea."
"Yes, the Demonic Sect they are talking about is our Church of the Seven Gods."
"So, the rebel army wants to kill us on the way? But even a powerful dragon cannot suppress a local snake. Where did the Barbarians get the ability to be so rampant in Pentos, which is tens of thousands of miles away? "The dwarf frowned.
"The Queen is also confused. She is asking Wizard Kui Xi to help investigate this matter." Varys said.
"They have an army of a million, and we still want to go to the Barbarians?"
"An army of a million, do you think it's possible?" Varys laughed.
"Even with a 10% discount, it's still a hundred thousand, right?"
"Maybe, but we don't have to worry." Varys was full of confidence, "If it's just one army, with a vassal leading a hundred thousand troops, the Barbarians will not be able to defend themselves.
But the rebels have more than two hundred armies. Even someone like me who doesn't know anything about military affairs can understand that it's a disorderly army. "
"What you said is not without reason." The dwarf nodded in agreement and sighed, "But there's one thing. Our King Bo seems to be even worse."
"That's why it's our turn to show off! The Dragon Queen is wise beyond compare, but if you follow her, you'll only be a wildfire general or Prince Gene. "Varys said faintly.
"That's true." The dwarf pulled himself together and forced a smile.
After a moment of silence, Tyrion remembered the rest of the preaching team.
"Where's Matthew and the rest?"
Varys stood up and asked, "Can you get off the bed?"
The dwarf stood up slowly in his slippers. After a few steps with a twisted face, he spread his legs to give his crotch some space to shake.
Varys helped him to the balcony.
At this time, Tyrion found his residence. It was on top of a magnificent tower, thirty to forty meters above the ground. It was close to the center of the city, and below it was the main road.
Facing the whistling cold wind, looking at the dark land in all directions, he had a panoramic view of half of Pentos. Most of the buildings were square red brick buildings with green tiles covering the roofs. Thousands of lights flowed out from the windows and doors, like stars in the night sky.
"We're at Jacob's house. Look there." Varys pointed to a direction for the dwarf. It was a three-story brick building with an area of four to five hundred square meters. On the stairs in front of the arched door, an old man in a brocade robe held a ball of holy light and said something loudly to the thousands of spectators in the square below.
"That house facing the street is the Great Sanctuary of Pentos. I bought it from Jacob for thirty thousand gold royals."
"Seven Treasures is preaching? There's a lot of audience, at least a thousand people, "the dwarf said in surprise.
"Free atonement scrolls, and you can see the holy light. A thousand is already very little." Varys sighed.
"How many days have we been here? It's so easy to change faith. Faith is worthless. "Tyrion did not think much of it.
"But we have to continue on our journey after a few days," Varys said.
"You've got the clearance documents? Didn't you say the prince is dead? "
"After such a thing happened, the people of Pentos can't wait for us to leave immediately." Varys laughed.
"Killing the gods and priests of Pentos …" Tyrion shook his head and smiled bitterly. "I thought there would be a big scene."
Varys laughed. "The ones with real power are the Princes of Trade. They come from different races and countries, and have their own beliefs. They don't have much of a sense of belonging to the local 'God of Earth and Sea'.
The Princes of Trade don't even care about the king of Pentos, let alone the gods who have little to do with them.
Many people did die that day, but all of them were priests. The nobles didn't even lose a single hair. But once they provoke us, the Dragon Queen next door will go crazy. They won't even be able to keep a single hair. "
After resting in Pentos for another three days, Tyrion had almost recovered, but he found that his magic power had been permanently reduced by forty percent.
"Three evil gods used blood witchcraft to take turns draining your essence blood. It's already very rare to be able to stay alive." This was Master Seven Treasures' explanation to his eldest disciple.
In the end, he also comforted him. "Magic is just a small path. As long as your faith is pious enough, a little gift from the Holy Mother is more than a few hundred years of hard work."
Then he used Arya as an example. "On the day the Pentos Sanctuary was built, when I blessed the statue of the Holy Mother, the Holy Mother's grace came to us."
"Why didn't you ask me for such a good thing?" Tyrion exclaimed.
"You can't even get out of the ground, and it's useless even if you went, so I got nothing." Varys sighed.
After that, Tyrion used a glass candle to contact the Holy Mother herself and was told the reason: no reward for no work.
Saint Matthew's divinity of "Our Lady of Mercy" was doubled, and he received the divine spell "Father's Fiery Eyes of Truth"; Arya's divinity of death was increased by twenty percent, and she received the elementary divine spell "Warrior's Sword"; the Hound received a thousand divine spell slots, and the same elementary divine spell "Warrior's Sword".
Varys participated in the construction of the sanctuary, and he also went to the streets and preached a few times. If he was a priest, he would also receive a thousand divine spell slots as a reward, but his piety was not enough.
The dwarf did nothing, so his contribution was zero, so his reward was also zero.
The dwarf only lamented that he had suffered so much for nothing, but he did not notice the hidden message: the Holy Father had arrived.
Yes, a few hours after the Dragon Queen sent the preaching team away, a large amount of divinity and spirituality inexplicably entered the Space of Faith.
At that time, she was leading a group of volunteers to hunt down deviant ghosts in the river. A large amount of divinity and spirituality flooded in, and she was more surprised than happy.
She had just left, and … even the real Tang Sanzang was not as hateful as the preaching team!
But before she could recover from her shock, the second wave of divinity came, and the interval was less than ten minutes.
And this was not the end, but the beginning. In the following days, more and more divinity was delivered, and Danny was stunned.
"I've been in Ursos for many years. Why didn't I see so many demons and ghosts there?"
