However, driven by its strong desire for life, it finally used all its strength to smash through the eggshell and crawl out.
However, after the little silver dragon emerged, it didn't even have the strength to eat the eggshell. It lay on the ground panting for a long time before it finally mustered the energy to eat its own eggshell.
The last little silver dragon didn't undergo any significant changes after eating its own eggshell.
Its scales were a little brighter, and it looked a bit more energetic, but it was still much less energetic than its older brothers and sisters, who were all very lively.
The little silver dragon is a male dragon who bravely broke out of his egg to save his life. Viserys and the other two girls are also very happy.
However, Viserys hesitated slightly when it came to its name. Its other brothers and sisters had already been named, all after ancient Valyrian gods, and each name had a profound meaning.
The little silver dragon, clearly suffering from congenital malnutrition, appeared weak and listless...
Viserys carefully considered the name he gave the little silver dragon and gave it a very casual one.
"Silver ingots."
In Valyrian, silver nuggets and silver are almost synonymous, so they can also be called 'silver'.
His reasoning was that Lai Ming was easy to raise. As the father who had personally hatched five little dragons, he didn't expect Silver Nugget to become a terrifying sky overlord in its current state; it was enough that it could grow up smoothly.
While Viserys was playing with Silver, who had grown a little bigger, Dr. Marvin hurried over.
He made a significant discovery in his work translating and proofreading classical texts.
The owner of these books was of extraordinary status; Viserys speculated that he was at least one of the forty ancient nobles of equal or even higher status than the Targaryen family.
His collection of books is naturally extremely valuable.
Dr. Marvin extracted a single word from snippets of information in these books.
"'demon'."
"demon?"
Viserys stood up and asked with some confusion.
The little silver dragon spread its wings and landed on his shoulder. Although Dr. Marwin's expression was serious, he couldn't help but take a few more glances at the baby dragon.
"These little guys are truly the most beautiful and graceful creatures in the world."
Immediately, 'Dr. Bull' couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. He was extremely passionate about magic and all mysticism, and dragons were naturally among those who studied it.
He was mesmerized by their flight in the sky, and the reason he came to find Viserys was that he hoped to see more of the dragons.
Dr. Marwin's disciple once thought the same way; she was Miri Maz Thur, one of the earliest followers of Viserys.
Unfortunately, this witch, though possessing amazing magic, was not wary of the wickedness in people's hearts and was killed by Gillian Lannister.
However, despite his fascination with dragons, Dr. Marvin did not forget why he had come here in the first place, and after organizing his thoughts, he spoke again.
"That's right, Your Majesty."
"Based on the information I have compiled over this period of time, I have conclusive evidence that Valyrian Freehold and 'the demons' have a strong connection."
Chapter 379 The Breath of the Demon
"demon?"
However, Viserys frowned slightly and spoke.
"Doctor, are you joking?"
Viserys's face was full of doubt; how could demons, which were just legends, possibly actually exist?
But in reality, upon hearing Dr. Marwin's words, the silver-haired youth's heart skipped a beat.
The books he gave to Dr. Marwin for proofreading were not all; he also had a book that the demonized Valyrian nobleman had pointed out to him before his death.
Although Viserys didn't know what the other party wanted to express, the book was more like a collection of miscellaneous notes, perhaps written by that Valyrian nobleman himself on the eve of a crisis, wanting to tell future generations something.
The word 'demon' was mentioned above.
Viserys had read the book after returning to Pentos, but the contents were very disorganized and many parts were already blurred. In addition, due to the language changes over the centuries, Viserys had some difficulty reading it.
The entire piece is filled with words such as 'demon,' 'darkness,' and 'horror.'
Viserys, in a vague state at that time, also wondered if there really was some kind of deal between Valyria and the legendary demons.
Then.
That very night, Viserys had a dream connected to the Valyrian catastrophe.
...
He dreamt that the sky was collapsing, the earth was tearing apart, and the sea was pouring into the sinking continent, submerging palaces, towns, and temples. The fourteen fire vanguards spanning the Valyrian peninsula spewed out thick black mist, and hundreds of demonic dragons soared through the sky, uttering silent roars.
He saw a white-bearded giant with a seven-star crown and a warhammer in his hand; he saw a woman wrapped in a black robe, her arms wrapped around her knees, weeping silently; he saw a floating corpse with its hands and feet bound in chains; he saw a black goat gnawing on flesh and blood; he saw a black bird with pale eyes preening its feathers; he saw a sun...
"These people are..."
However, in the end he saw all the existing faces and they swapped.
Viserys felt a sudden tightness in his chest, as if a large hand had gripped his neck, making it hard for him to breathe.
The white-bearded giant was shrouded in a black robe; the weeping woman raised her ram's head; and the floating corpse, its hands and feet bound in chains, transformed into a black bird, broke free of its chains, and flew away...
As the silver-haired youth looked at the group of 'monsters' with some panic, he did not notice a pair of pale, jade-like hands slowly crawling up his neck.
However, the devastation of Valyria's doomsday scramble continues.
This was not the first time Viserys had dreamt of apocalyptic scenes. He had dreamt of it once many years ago, but back then, there were no such bizarre and fantastical scenes; it was just a vision of the world collapsing.
But at that moment, Viserys seemed to faintly hear in his dreams that the land was wailing and weeping.
The first time I dreamt of a mother and son reuniting after a long separation, they were once again reduced to ashes by the gushing lava.
The black mist that shot up from the Fourteen Fire Peaks transformed into a fist and slammed into the sky. At that moment, the jade hand that was about to climb up Viserys' neck suddenly withdrew.
Then the fist formed by the black mist exploded, falling as a rain of black blood. Fiery red clouds scattered shattered dragon crystals, and the fourteen fire peaks collapsed, turning into fourteen bottomless abysses.
The Valyrian Peninsula was instantly shattered by the heavy hammer, and the surging, turbulent waves swept across the land of Long Summer. Even Slaver's Bay was not spared, with many pyramids destroyed and city walls collapsing.
Valyria, the most prosperous, powerful, and renowned empire in human history, even capable of challenging the gods, vanished and disappeared without a trace.
Viserys suddenly sat up, waking from the nightmare. The soft feather bed was soaked with his sweat, and cold sweat continued to drip from his forehead onto the luxurious velvet bedding.
Princess Arianne Martell of Dorne, who was sleeping beside the young king, was also awakened. Treyne, naked, wrapped herself around Viserys and gently kissed his chest.
However, after Viserys calmed himself down, he didn't tell the two women the specific details of his dream. He simply hugged Arianne gently and told them that he had a nightmare.
...
No one knew about Viserys' nightmare except Arianne and Treyne, and even the women who shared his bed didn't know what he dreamed about.
Dr. Marwin's views were even more surprising. He not only believed that the legendary hell and demons were real, but also that the Valyrians made a deal with these demons.
Valyrian steel weapons, the powerful magic wielded by the Valyrians, and the enslavement of countless slaves to explore the underground world beneath the Fourteen Fire Peaks—all of these are directly linked to demons.
Dr. Marwin was able to find clues and evidence in the valuable books provided by Viserys.
For example, a book about Valyrian steel forging mentions that the key to forging Valyrian steel is the need for 'demon's breath' to purify the steel and imbue it with magic.
Dr. Marvin was absolutely certain that the word was the word for 'demon' in Higher Valyrian. As for what exactly the breath of the demon was, Dr. Marvin himself did not know, but according to the description in the book, it seemed to be a black gas.
Meanwhile, it was also recorded in a travelogue.
'A nobleman of the Freehold, of noble blood, has had his dignity challenged by a commoner. While the citizens of the Freehold possess power, this is insufficient to challenge the honor of the Belleris family.'
'This great man punished the poor fellow with his magic; he transformed into a cloud of black mist, appeared before the man, grabbed his neck, and then ripped the wretched creature's life force from him.'
"This seems to be a magic that only the highest-ranking nobles of Freedom Fortress can master."
"The Belleris family?"
Viserys' expression shifted slightly when he heard the name of the Beleris family.
Because the book of miscellaneous notes was signed by Belleris, it seems that the family he joined was the Belleris family.
"Your Majesty's guess is correct; these books may indeed originate from the Belleris family."
Dr. Marwin confirmed Viserys's guess, because he saw the shepherd's coat of arms on the bookmark.
Furthermore, among those books was one about exploring the continent of Sothros, written by Jenina Belleris.
She once rode her dragon to fly further south into the known world, in search of the legendary boiling ocean and steaming rivers.
She went further than any previous expedition—yet all she saw were endless rainforests, deserts, and mountains.
When she returned to Valyrian Freehold three years later, she declared that Sothros was as large as Essos, a 'continent without end'.
If Dr. Marvin's ideas were to be spread, they would certainly cause a great sensation, but perhaps not many people would believe them; most would treat them as a joke.
However, Viserys believed him, because he was the host of the black mist, and also because of the dream he had.
"Valiria declared war on the gods, and the gods destroyed Valyria."
"But the Valyrian spirit did not die..."
thump—
The melodious chimes of the Nine-Tower Palace carried far and wide.
Chapter 380 Replacement of the Prime Minister
The bells of Pentos tolled melodiously.
Rumbling--
The thunder of hooves, the shouts of men and the neighing of horses—an endless expanse of warhorses swept in.
Twenty thousand Dothraki Roaring Warriors, who had submitted to the dragon-riding Khal, arrived at the walls of Pentos. The garrison on the walls of Pentos appeared extremely tense, the city gates were closed, and the citizens of Pentos were plunged into a state of high panic.
However, the dragon roared in the sky, and the Dothraki, riding their warhorses, brandished their Arak scimitars and shouted the name of their dragon riders, Khal, with a voice that shook the heavens and the earth.
"Khal dragon!!"
"Ohhhh!!!"
The most powerful Khal rode the strongest warhorse, and their Khal subdued a dragon. What does this mean? It means they are the strongest on earth!
Having rested and recuperated on the Great Plains for so long, they felt their scimitars had become dull, and now they had finally received orders to prepare to cross the poisonous waters and attack the Seven Kingdoms.
"We'll ride the wooden horse! We'll cross the poisonous water!"
