Game of Thrones: Wrath of the Sleeping Dragon

Chapter 776 The Story of Long Night

The eyes of everyone present fell on Dr. Marwin, after all, he was the most knowledgeable person present.

"Since the oath of the alliance. That is, thousands of years after the war between the ancestors and the children of the forest ended"

"A generation-long winter has come to the world."

"The cold world is dark and dark. People grow up in the cold winter and die in the cold winter. They never see spring come in their whole life."

"Even the king and the humblest servant in the castle were not spared, and they all froze to death in the long winter."

"Mothers killed their children so they wouldn't be born to suffer, and they burst into tears, tears freezing on their cheeks."

Dr. Marwin's voice was low, and the palm of his hand holding the thick book trembled slightly imperceptibly.

This is a story passed down orally by the ancestors through symbols and ancient families, and the grandmother of Winterfell once told the children of the Stark family.

However, the history of mankind today is written after the Andals arrived in Westeros.

Therefore, many of the history of the Era of Dawn, the Era of Heroes, and the "Long Night" are all made up by the bachelors thousands of years later. Some doctors and bachelors in the academy simply don't believe there will be such things as the Long Night.

They think the story of the long night is too absurd, how can there be a dark night that lasts for decades?

This is not in line with the laws of astrology at all.

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, never changing.

If there really is a dark night that lasts for decades, is it because the sun is hiding on the bottom of the sea and does not want to come out? Or was it blocked by something?

For the cognition of this world scholar, most still think that the world is a plane.

Even a Dr. Formus in the history of the Academy guessed in his book "The Lies of the Ancients" that the so-called White Walkers were actually just a tribe of ancestors, the ancestors of today's savages, and the long night was just an extremely long night. winter.

When this winter came, they were forced to move south, which led to a series of wars. He believed that the brutality of these 'White Walkers' was just fabricated by the Starks and the Night's Watch. The savior of mankind, disguising himself as benefiting from this turf war.

However, it is a pity that this Dr. Formus did not live to this day, otherwise he will be slapped in the face, he will not only see the White Walkers, but also see the coming of the long night.

In the emperor's bedroom in the Maegor Tower of the Red Fort, everyone present fell into silence when they heard the words of Dr. Marwin, the great scholar.

A winter that lasts a generation?

What are you kidding?

Everyone felt cold from the top of their head to their heels.

However, the winter that lasts for a generation is not the most terrible, the most terrible is the darkness that lasts for a generation.

If it's just cold, the tenacious humans who grit their teeth and survive may still be able to persevere, or the big deal is to run south to the Midsummer Islands.

And the darkness that lasted a generation. What to eat at that time?

I'm afraid I don't know how many people will starve to death.

"I said, everyone..."

"We shouldn't be in a daze here."

At this time, the emperor's advisor, the little demon Tyrion Lannister, was the first to react.

His small body is the most inconspicuous among the crowd, and even standing at the table can't find where he is going.

"What should we do?"

However, Tyrion was indeed the first of these royal ministers to regain his senses, and then he asked a very constructive question.

what should we do?

"If the long night does come, we have to do something."

"For this country, for the people of this country, and also for our own lives."

Tyrion looked at the crowd, his eyes swept across their cheeks, and then shrugged his shoulders, trying to gag.

He tried to liven up the atmosphere, but failed because his own voice was a little dry.

"For example..."

"We can build some underground fortresses that can keep out the cold, fill them with food for many years, and hide ourselves in them."

"As for the people on the ground, I am afraid that they are seeking more blessings from themselves.

Now that they already know that the long night is coming, and this long night may last for decades, even a little grain cannot be wasted at this time.

Because your little kindness may make you fall at the last moment before dawn.

And since it was a long night, giving them a little food was not enough to keep ordinary people through the cold winter.

"And for another example, is it only Westeros that has lost the sun?"

"Is there sunshine anywhere else?"

Tyrion asked again, this time his eyes fell on Dr. Marwyn, the Grand Master, and Oberyn, the Chancellor of Justice.

"If there is a sun somewhere else, we can conquer that land with an army and move our people over there to survive this catastrophe."

Tyrion raised his fists high, then clenched them together as if to symbolize strength.

There was a reason why he asked these two men, because one of them was a knowledgeable doctor who should know more about Long Ye, and the other was a general who was accustomed to fighting.

If there is really another place in the world that still has sunshine, he believes that His Majesty the Emperor will definitely conquer them at any cost, and then grab that piece of land.

Unfortunately, he looked forward to Prince Dorn, but the other party shook his head slightly.

"I don't know if there's sunshine in the rest of the world right now."

"But if it really is a long night."

Oberyn's voice was a little cold, and he took a deep breath.

"According to the legend of the Royna people, the Lorne River, the mother of the Loyna people, will disappear in the long night."

Oberyn's words made the hope that had just ignited in the hearts of everyone present disappeared again, because the legend of the long night proved that they also appeared in the Essos continent at that time.

"Yes."

"About eight thousand years ago, the long night fell all over the world at the same time."

And Dr. Marwin, who was temporarily flipping through the books, said in a tired voice.

He was reading the history of the Age of Dawn and the Age of Heroes. Fortunately, the Red Fort, as the imperial palace of the empire, had enough books, and records about the long night appeared in the history of the Age of Heroes.

"East of the Skeleton Mountains, the same story also appeared in Yidi. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"

"The sun is gone, and darkness covers the earth for eternity."

"The Yidi people believed that the long night was caused by the Blood Stone Emperor's 'blood chaos'. He killed his sister, Queen Amethyst, and usurped the throne of the Kingdom of Liming."

"And the Blood Stone Emperor betrayed the Daughter of True Light and the Night Lion, and instead worshipped a mysterious black stone that fell from the sky. Therefore, the Night Lion let the long night fall and punished mankind."

"However, in another book called "Summary of Yuhai", there is a different legend about Yidi."

"It was said that the sun hid because she was ashamed of something no one knew, and the last woman with a monkey tail reversed the catastrophe."

"The story of the long night happened simultaneously in every corner of the world, and our ancestors had nowhere to hide but had to deal with it on their own."

Dr. Marwin closed the book and sighed.

"This is a crisis for all of humanity."
