Chapter 0796: Flame Prophecy

Volantis.

The Red Temple, perched on the banks of the Lorne, amazed both Will and Arya.

Standing in front of the gates of the Red Temple, under the high pillars, Will and Arya felt as small as ants.

All kinds of intricate ornaments are scattered on the walls, gates, and eaves. The flame shape and bright red color are impressive.

A sanctuary full of occultism and ancient architectural art, there is no analogue in the world that Will has traveled to.

Will showed a small piece of rubite, which was adorned with flames.

The Hand of the Flame (Hand of Fire), who was guarding the gate, immediately bowed down, and they opened the small side door and invited Will and Arya into the Sanctuary.

Inside the door were several Sacred Flame Hands, armed with weapons, wearing flame cloaks, their faces painted with intricate flame ornaments, and their eyes full of warrior murderous aura.

These people were the warriors of the Red Temple and the servants of the Lord of Light.

Religious arming has always been a difficult test for the consuls. In Westeros, religious arming was also a test for the king.

Will flashed the Flame Ruby and said, "We are the servants of the Lord of Light from Westeros, and we have come to see Archpriest Bennero. ”

The Hand of the Flame took the ruby and looked at it carefully, and he handed it back to Will. A Hand of the Flame nodded, leading Will and Arya inside.

Arya looked up, and above her head was a dome, very high, with colorful ornaments on it. Because it is so high, you can only see the color, and you can't see what the ornament is painting, maybe it's a plant, maybe it's an animal, maybe it's a flame.

As they walked through the hall, they saw a beam of light shining down from the middle of the dome on a high platform. On the high platform lay a man covered with a red robe. Will and Arya could only see the side of the man's face, a beard and outline as hard as a rock.

The group of three did not make a sound.

The hand of the flame leading the way in front of him was silent even when he walked.

The whole hall was filled with people coming and going, priests, monks, apprentices, Hand of Flame (Hand of Fire), but everyone was quiet, coming and going silently, giving Arya's ghost the feeling.

Will and Arya were also unconsciously affected, and their voices were restrained when they walked.

As long as the toes are strong and the lower feet are light, you can be silent.

Entering such a magnificent Red Temple was an eye-opener for Arya. Architecture is psychologically shocking, and Will is no exception. In such an atmosphere, it is easy for people to lose their self by fearing God.

In a small room, Will and Arya see Archpriest Bennero.

Arya was surprised to see that the priest was tall even when he was sitting, his cheekbones and forehead protruding, and his priest's robe hung on his thin shoulders, and the priest could tell that the priest was thin.

The priest's skin was covered with flame tattoos, and his unstained skin was as white as milk, as if the priest had never been in the sun.

Will noticed that the priest's bald head and lips and ears were covered in tattoos of fire, which reminded him of the street thugs of Earth's civilization. When the little gangsters who like to show off their power meet Archpriest Bennero, they will definitely think that Archpriest is the real tattoo boss.

From the tattoos on the wrists exposed by the High Pastor, it can also be seen that his arms are also full of tattoos, but I don't know if the body under the priest's robe is also covered with flame tattoos.

The flame tattoo adds to the mystery of the high priest and instills awe among the faithful.

In front of the High Priest there was a copper plate with a small fire burning, and the High Priest was staring intently at the flames.

Will and Arya were both familiar with Melisandre, and had seen Melisandre do the same many times, and both of them knew the rules, and stood quietly on the sidelines, waiting for the archpriest to finish the secret of the flames first.

The archpriest's eyes were fixed on the flames, and he suddenly spoke, his face not turning to Will and Arya: "Come and see." ”

Will and Arya looked at each other, they had experience with Melisandre, and stepped forward and stared at the flames as well. Will saw a fireball, and Arya saw a woman with blond hair and purple eyes standing in front of an army of five dragons in the sky.

"What do you see?" said the archpriest's voice with a metallic texture, and he said softly, otherwise it would make Will and Arya feel uncomfortable.

Will said, "Master, I saw a huge ball of fire. ”

"Oh, what does a fireball look like?"

"Like a burning Tiger Party chamber. ”

Archpriest Bennero nodded, "You also saw three dragons burning the council chamber. ”

"Yes, when the dragon appeared in the sky, we were in the city. ”

"The house is too big, it will burn for a while. Archpriest Bennero said. His voice is like two pieces of metal rubbing against each other, and if he raises his voice, it will make a penetrating whistle-like sound that irritates people's eardrums.

Arya was amazed at the conversation between Will and the priest.

Because she saw something completely different.

When the Three Dragons burned down the Tiger Party Hall, Will and Arya were also in the city. The two witnessed the fire burning, and because the house was so big, it might be nighttime to wait for the flames to be completely extinguished. And there are three dragons showing off their might, and no one dares to put out the fire, so they can only watch from afar.

The black-clad troops in the streets have withdrawn, coming and going quickly and well-trained.

Will and Arya followed the crowd that poured out of the gates to meet Bennero, the archpriest of the Red Temple.

Aegon and Nessiso set fire to death, killing the Tigers nobles and officials, and causing chaos among the Tigers in the city, causing many families to flee. The people fled from the gate of the West City without being hindered in any way. The Elephants had taken control of the city gates, but they had not exterminated the Tigers' families.

The officials and nobles of the Tiger Party basically died, the Tiger Party was destroyed, and Valantis was left with only one Elephant Party, and the Elephant Party only killed the leader, not the Tiger family, but also for the stability of the city. Those who want to stay will stay, and those who want to flee will flee.

Many members of the Tiger family escaped the city gates and crossed the Lorne River Bridge to join Daenerys Targaryen.

Will and Arya made their way to the bridge in the midst of the crowd, first going to the Red Temple to meet Archpriest Bennero.

*

"What do you see?" asked Archpriest Bennero, Arya.

Arya felt the High Reverend's gaze shining like the sun, and she didn't dare to look at it directly. She was taken aback, how could human eyes be so bright that it was unbelievable.

"Archpriest, I saw a woman with blonde hair and purple eyes, and I saw thousands of horses, and I saw five dragons in the sky. ”

Will looked at Arya in surprise.

He didn't see anything Arya said.

He sees the present in the flames, but Arya sees the future in the flames.

Five dragons?

Aegon had three dragons, and Will carried two dragon eggs with him, and if hatched, it would be five.

Before the time travel, Will didn't know much about the plot, because of his incursions, the plot had completely changed. The butterfly effect is obvious.

The archpriest nodded slightly: "Girl, you have seen the truth. ”

Arya and Will were shocked.

With the two of them's amazing makeup skills, no one recognized Arya as a girl along the way. Will himself had forgotten that Arya was a girl.

"What's the truth?" Arya asked. Her question looks naΓ―ve to Will and Bennero's eyes, but Arya is serious. She didn't know anything about the future.

"Master, what about Aegon Targaryen?" Will asked.

The question is crucial as to why Daenerys doesn't have Aegon by her side, and all five dragons follow Daenerys.

"The flame is omnipotent, revealing all things, but mortal eyes cannot see the future. I can only see the fragments in the flames that the Lord of Light wants me to see. Everything is the will of the Red God. Archpriest Bennero said softly.

Will calls Archpriest Bennero a master, a title that is unique to him. It inherits the traditional reverence for the great wisdom and great power in the previous civilization.

The master answered the question. Will didn't ask any more.

"Give me back the ruby that Melisandre gave you. Archpriest Bennero said.

It turns out that the Red God Faith token, which Melisandre gave to Will, is Archpriest Bennero's.

"Yes, Master! | Will took out the flaming ruby and respectfully handed it to Archpriest Bennero.

The high priest's outstretched hand was as thin as a twig, and his fingers were long.

"Priest Melisandre and I have both read prophecies in ancient books: after the long summer, the stars will weep blood, Azor Ahai will be reborn in the land of smoke and salt, the sword of light will reappear, I have seen many fragments of the strangers, and I have seen many deaths, but I have never seen you in the flames. The archpriest said as he looked into Will's eyes.

Arya looked carefully into the archpriest's eyes, never seeing the sun's sparkle as the priest glancing at her.

"The sun shines on the earth, but there are also places where the sun doesn't. Will took it in stride.

The archpriest looked at Will calmly for a moment, and said, "I already know your intentions, and Priest Melisandre has conveyed to me some of your deeds through the flames. But just as the sun can't reach every corner, I can't help everyone get their wishes. What you want to fight for, you have to rely on yourselves. ”

"Yes, Master. But I still want to ask the Master to tell Daenerys Targaryen that the Xenomorphs threaten the lives of the Terrans, and I want her help. Will didn't want to spend a lot of time and energy convincing Daenerys to believe in the Wraith, and across the Narrow Sea, it was inconvenient for him to capture the ghouls for Daenerys to see for himself.

But Archpriest Bennero and Daenerys Targaryen have a foundation of trust, and the Archpriest comes forward to tell Daenerys that she can be trusted more than Will, a stranger, tells her.

That's what Will came to Archpastor Bennero.

That's what Melisandre wanted.

Melisandre had been to the Red Temple, and the High Priest already knew what was going to happen on the continent of Westeros, and Melisandre had traveled tens of thousands of miles to Westeros to stop the invasion of the God of Cold.

The cold god and the red god are the two gods that are incompatible.

"Well, that's all I can do for you. ”

"Thank you, Master!" Will was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him.

"I'll send someone to take you to Daenerys Targaryen. ”

"Yes, Master. ”

Will and Arya hurriedly thanked him.

Arya is dressed in men's clothes, and she is a male teenager from any angle.

Archpriest Bennero waved Will and Arya out first, waiting outside the door. He rang the bell, and a hand of the flame at the door came in, and fell on his face, listening to the precepts.

After a while, the Hand of the Flame came out and said to Will and Arya, "The priest wants me to take you to Daenerys Targaryen, please come with me. ”

"Thank you!" Will thanked.

The Hand of the Flame led Will and Arya into a room where many monks were doing their homework. The Hand of the Flame took two of the Red Robes of the Flame Warrior and handed them to Will and Arya. The two of them draped their red robes over their bodies, pulled up their hoods, and transformed themselves into pious red-robed monks.

The group of three people came out of the Red Temple and headed towards the Lorne River Bridge.

The Lorne Bridge was wide and majestic, black, wider than any avenue Will and Arya had ever seen. At the head of the bridge, there were many elephant soldiers, and people who wanted to cross the bridge were stopped at the bridge.

Two rows of soldiers lined up for miles along the bridgehead, and the whole avenue was cleared, and there was not a single man or horse.

Countless freemen, merchants, nobles, slaves, and traders were stopped at the end of the avenue, and no one could get to the bridge. The people who came from the opposite side were also being blocked back by the soldiers, and the people who wanted to cross the bridge in Dongcheng were pushed back like a wave.

"What's going on? Don't cross the bridge?" Will whispered.

The Hand of the Flame in front of him did not speak, but walked through the crowd with his head bowed. No matter how tightly he walked through the crowd, Will and Arya followed with ease wrapped in red-robed monk robes.

The three of them finally came to the bridgehead.

The Hand of the Flame whispered a few words to the soldiers guarding the bridge, and the invincible soldier was immediately kind, saying that he would wait a moment, and then ran to ask the captain for instructions. The captain hurriedly came over, whispered a few words to the Hand of the Flame, and finally got out of the way.

"Walk against the bridge. The Hand of the Flame whispered to Will and Arya.

"Yes!"

So, the group of three quickly got on the bridge, leaned against the railing of the bridge, lowered their heads, and hurried forward.

On the bridge, there are already five steps, one post, ten steps and one sentry, all of which are under martial law, and no idle people walk on the bridge.

Everywhere the three of Will went, the soldiers all nodded in greeting and looked respectful. The junior officers were polite, and their eyes were full of respect.

It can be seen that the degree of belief in the Red God here has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and most of the soldiers in the army are Red God believers. While no one else could go up the bridge, the Red Temple's Flame Hand and the Red-robed Monk were able to cross the bridge.

"Pastor, why is the bridge under martial law?" Will asked in a low voice.

"Nexiso, the archon of the Elephant Party, and Aegon VI, the master of the dragon, are going to meet Daenerys Targaryen across the bridge. ”

When Will heard this, it was clear to him that the Elephant Party and Aegon had just joined forces to kill the nobles and officials of the Tiger Party, and they were afraid that some Tiger Party warriors would seek revenge on them. In order to be cautious, they sent a large number of elephant troops to clear a safe road first.

The conspiracy to kill people in order to monopolize power has succeeded in the murderer's plot, but they may also be ...... The heart is empty.
