Chapter 1003: The God of Cold, the Prophet, the Night King, Little Will
"Jon Targaryen, Daenerys Targaryen. Will said. (PS: In the TV series, Jon and Aegon were merged into one person, which is hereby explained.) )
"Jon is afraid of fire. ”
"People change, just as Little Will isn't afraid of strangers and ghouls. ”
"Do you think Jon will change because of some kind of opportunity?"
"Possibly. ”
Melisandre was silent for a moment, then she looked in Little Will's direction, "My flame has no prophecy. ”
"Flame is not the only truth. ”
"The Red God is the only true God. ”
"That's just for you. For Daenerys, the dragon god is the only true god, and for the people of the Seven Kingdoms, the seven gods are the only true god. ”
"And what is your one true God?"
"Wisdom, the god of time and space. Anything, truth or error, will appear in time and space. ”
"You already know where the Lightbringer is?" Melisandre asked suddenly, abruptly.
Will looked into Melisandre's eyes, did she see anything in the flames? There was a humanoid life in the Sacred Wood Forest in Winterfell, and in the entire North, only that humanoid life was the only true god, but that humanoid life didn't think of itself as a god.
Perhaps, the gods will not consider themselves gods, and only ordinary people will worship them in the position of gods. God Himself also has a lot of unknown things, many problems that cannot be solved, such as that humanoid life, which cannot solve the problem of walking on its own. He can only observe the north through the eyes of other objects, hear the north, understand the north, and he himself can only stay there forever like a tree, at least, he can't solve his loneliness.
"I know where the Lightbringer is!" Will admitted.
"Take me there. Melisandre stared at Will, her head tilted slightly, her eyes glowing like jewels.
"I can't take you there. ”
"Why?"
"Because of the cold god. ”
"You're afraid he'll find the Lightbringer?"
"No, I'm afraid he'll find Little Will. ”
"You said that Little Will doesn't have to be the master of the Lightbringer. ”
"If he is, the god of cold will come against him. ”
Melisandre's eyes were fixed on Will.
"If Little Will is, we should bring Little Will to Dorne. ”
Will froze.
"Dorne belongs to fire, a place where the gods of cold fear. ”
Will Moran.
The south belongs to fire, and in the civilization that crosses, there has always been such a division of attributes. It is said that the crimson mountains of Dorne in the south are a symbol of fire.
When the north is cold as ice, the south of Dorne is often as hot as fire. But that was the previous season.
"It's snowing in Dorne too. ”
"No matter how it snows, Dorne is fire. I know and understand this. ”
"So you want to bring Little Will to Dorne?"
"I know your battlefield is on the Wall of Desperation, but if the Wall of Desperation can't hold it, we should fight the God of Colds in Dorne. ”
"Let the Wraiths and Ghouls slay all the way from the North to Dorne, and let the people of the Seven Kingdoms become warriors of the Night King? ”
"Then maybe we can find a mutually acceptable solution. ”
"What's the solution?"
"Lure the Night King to Dorne, ambush him, and kill him. ”
"The god of cold will not let the Night King be fooled. ”
"Not necessarily. ”
"I wouldn't agree. ”
"The Green Prophet is not dead. Melisandre sneered.
"Brynden River?"
Brindon Riverwin, the Green Prophet of the Children of the Forest, has grown himself with a 10,000-year-old heart tree, like a humanoid life in the Sacred Grove of Winterfell.
It's just that it seems that the two green prophets don't communicate with each other, and their relationship is indifferent. They were supposed to be good neighbors. For both the prophet and God, the relationship between one and the other felt cold. Otherwise, why can't the cold god sit down with the red god to discuss the change of seasons and the division of forces, but let his men bury their heads in the war.
The more God they are, the more indifferent, estranged and hostile they become.
It's like two hostile countries.
There is still peace between nations through negotiations, while the gods are at war with their believers each time, and they are irreconcilable.
Will suddenly felt that it was not ordinary people who were vile and selfish, but God himself.
"We can use Little Will as bait and set a trap in Dorne to trap the Night King. Melisandre said, "Dorne belongs to the fire, and the Night King goes to Dorne and his strength is halved." If we let the Green Prophet surrender to the Night King. ”
"The Green Prophet will be turned into one of the Strangers by the Night King. ”
"Yes, but the Green Prophet has all the memories, the ghosts, the ghouls, the world, all the memories. He was turned into a strange ghost by the Night King, but his memories could not be erased, all in his mind, and the Night King could not make him surrender. ”
"The Night King will kill him. Will said lightly, "Melisandre, every time you have a bold plan, but it is at the expense of other people's lives, such as fire sacrifices, such as taking little Will to the Thern Mountains, although these things have achieved your goal, but someone will always die for it." ”
Melisandre stared at Will, her eyes narrowing slightly: "War, you don't want to die." ”
"Some people don't have to die like that, like the Green Prophet you said. If the Green Prophet is favored by the Cold God and becomes the new Night King, or becomes one of the two Night Kings, you haven't even thought about these risks?"
Melisandre was silent, she hadn't thought of that.
"Also, what about the cold god erasing the memories of the Green Prophet? he killed the Green Prophet? or alienated into another Night King, or erased some of his memories so that there were no humans in his memory, only strange ghosts, how can you make the Red God save this situation?"
Melisandre said: "I'll admit I didn't think of the risks. ”
"That's what the flame can't tell you, that's wisdom. ”
Melisandre was silent.
"So, who is the current Green Prophet of the Children of the Forest?"
"Jojin Reed. ”
Will knows Jiujian.
"I fought alongside him, and together in his family's domain, we annihilated the main army of the Iron Islands. ”
"He is now the Green Prophet of the Children of the Forest. Melisandre said.
"Where is he now?"
"He will soon enter the Great Wall of Desperation through the Heart Tree Gate under the Forged Sword Castle, and take his current clansmen and believers through the Great Wall of Desperation. ”
"You've met him?"
"In the Ghost Forest, it was he who led the sons of the forest to save me and Little Will, as well as Big Gilly. ”
"He saw your distress in prophecy?"
"Yes!"
"He has a three-eyed crow?"
"He has a three-eyed crow, but he can have a thousand three-eyed crows if necessary. “
A thousand?
There used to be a song about the Seven Kingdoms: One Thousand and One Eyes, which means that Brinnden Rivers has a thousand and one eyes, and he can observe every corner of the world with the eyes of any bird or beast, and he can also go back to the past and fly into the future through the three-eyed crow.
If there really is a god in the world, Will thinks that the owner of the three-eyed raven is a god. Like the god of time and space, he is not only fully aware of the past, but also able to predict the future.
The greatest ability of the god of time and space is to hide all the secrets of the world in his memory, and the same is true of the Green Prophet.
Will suddenly felt like he understood something.
"If there really is a god in this world, a god that exists in reality, then there can only be one: the Green Prophet. ”
"The Green Prophet is a man, a knife and a little fire can kill him, but God cannot kill him. Melisandre said.
"God can be killed, just like the Green Prophet. The Green Prophet knows everything. Will suddenly understood, "If the Cold God wants to kill anyone, it must not be Little Will, Little Will doesn't know the secret of the Night King and the secret of the Cold God, but the Green Prophet knows." ”
Melisandre looked shocked.
Will came up with a truth he had never thought of. Her flames were just fragments of what the Red God wanted to tell her, not the whole of the real truth.
"By the way, if the God of Cold were to order the Night King to kill anyone, it wouldn't be anyone else but the Green Prophet. ”
"So what is the role of the Lightbringer?"
"Protector of the Green Prophet, Guardian. ”
Melisandre looked at Will in surprise, "The Night King came to kill the Green Prophet, and the Lightbringer killed the Night King." ”
"Yes!" Will said slowly, "That's the right logic. “
"It's not just Little Will that we should protect, it's actually the Green Prophet, who is Jiujian Reed. ”
Will looked at Melisandre, "We were all wrong. It is useless for the Night King to kill many people, and if he joins Jiujian and is still alive, he will not be able to conquer this world, and he will always be unsafe. ”
"The Green Prophet knows his secrets. Melisandre said.
"To kill the Night King, you must rely on the Lightbringer, but to save the world, it is up to the Green Prophet. “
"We should go to Forged Sword now, he needs our protection. Melisandre said.
"Don't worry, since the Green Prophet knows all the secrets of the Night King, he must know how to avoid the Night King's pursuit. He will come to the Sword Forgery safely, but it is difficult to say whether the brothers in the Sword Forgery will accidentally injure him. ”
"You should go to the Sword Forgery immediately, if the Children of the Forest suddenly come out of the underground of the Sword Forge, they will definitely frighten the blacksmiths, and the Valyrian Steel Sword will go down, in case the head of the Green Prophet falls to the ground?"
"Maybe he could have anticipated what was happening in Forged Sword and avoided it in advance, but we had to hurry, we couldn't take the risk. It's just that the Night King and the Strange Ghost are fate, and none of us can avoid it, nor can we predict it. ”
"What is unpredictable depends on our wisdom. Melisandre said. That's what Will wanted him to understand.
Will smiled.
He finally enlightened Melisandre a little.
When God refuses to tell us the true reason, man can make his own inferences and make decisions on his own. Relying on God for everything, just like relying on God for everything, is actually unreliable. God is not so bored as to care about every mood, every sigh, every event of the scum.
Your own business has nothing to do with God. If God cares about all that is in you, then He is not God, He is Yourself.
"The Green Prophet will know who the Lightbringer is, too?" Melisandre asked Will.
"Yes, if he will say it. At this point, the Green Prophet must know more about the world, about secrets, than the Night King and the Cold God. The cold god only knows his own secrets, while the green prophet knows the secrets of the world. ”
"It's just that the Green Prophet is too fragile and dies at the slightest touch. ”
He is a prophet, not a true God. I believe that he is the embodiment of the memory of the god of time and space. There was another sentence that Will didn't say, he himself was a sword of the God of Time and Space.
One is the memory of the god of time and space, and the other is a sword of the god of time and space.
Swords need memory, and memory needs swords.
These are the two sides of the same body of the god of time and space, and one is indispensable.
A sword without a memory is fragile and dies with a single blow, and a sword without memory is a piece of scrap metal.
And in the midst of this, the gods forged a separate sword: the Lightbringer!
Lightbringer to the ghosts of the Long Night, the nemesis of the Night King.
Will felt that the line was becoming clearer and the logic was becoming clearer.
So, what is the secret of the Night King, what is the secret of the Cold God, and why is it that in 8,000 years, the strange spirits have attacked again.
Are the Aliens here to conquer the world, or are they here to destroy the world, so that the world can only sleep in the dead of winter and the long night?
What's the secret behind all this fighting?
It seems that all this can only be counted on by the Green Prophet's answer!

"What do we do now?"
"You take Little Will to Winterfell, and Arya will accompany you, she knows where the Lightbringer is. ”
"Good!"
"I'm going to Forged Sword, to meet Jojin Reed and his sons of the forest. ”
Melisandre held out her hand to Will, who hesitated and took her hand, which was warm, elastic, and slippery.
In fact, Will has always hoped that Little Will is the master of the Lightbringer, and only the Lightbringer sword can kill the Night King, there is no doubt about this, but who is the owner of the sword, Will has always thought in his heart that it is Little Will. He just released a lot of smoke bombs to protect his son. He believes that in the north, the god of cold is everywhere...... Then you can't divulge really useful information......
Suddenly, Will felt a chill, if the god of cold was everywhere in the north, and there was a humanoid life everywhere in the north, that humanoid life was in Winterfell......
Will was suddenly stunned, and everyone was cold!
"What's wrong with you?" said Melisandre's eyes, glowing strangely, red as jewels.
"Chill God!" Will said.
"What?"
"Chill God!"
"The god of cold is in the land of eternal winter. Melisandre affirmed.
"Couldn't he be in the North?"
"Even if he was in the North, he couldn't be his real person. Just like me, I'm the priest of the red god, but not the red god itself. ”
A cold sweat broke out on Will's forehead: "God can't kill people in the real world, can he?"
"The Green Prophet is the closest to God, but he is not even as good as the most ordinary warrior. Melisandre said, "A warrior can kill Jojin Reed with a single sword, the gods will not appear in this world, and the action of the cold god is the Night King." ”
Will took a deep breath and said, "Okay, but I've changed my mind, you and Little Will can't go to Winterfell to get a sword. ”()
