As the three baby dragons were born, the Three-Eyed Raven also sensed the power of the Old God within him gradually recovering and becoming stronger than ever before. All the spellcasters in the world were suddenly awakened and at a loss.
A red comet, symbolizing many things, appeared at the edge of the Sea of Sunset. It flew over Westeros and finally crashed before Viserys' army, which had returned from their expedition and defeated Khal Drogo.
Viserys took the Heart of the Star from the Red Comet, and the Three-Eyed Raven knew at that moment that Viserys' existence was unstoppable.
Then came the scene at the beginning, where the Three-Eyed Raven traveled back in time to when Viserys was a child, and manipulated a boar to attack Prince Rhaegar, hoping to kill or break the young prince's legs.
Unfortunately, the Three-Eyed Raven failed, and he didn't have many opportunities to intervene in the course of history.
He then tried to continue observing Viserys through the crows, but was accidentally caught and killed by one of Viserys's pet black cats.
This old black cat gave the Three-Eyed Raven the same inexplicable sense of dread.
In particular, he was intently observing Viserys when he suddenly turned his head and saw a large cat face.
This left him with a deep psychological scar.
From that point on, the Three-Eyed Raven gave up observing Viserys.
Until recently, he realized that the future Night King was about to find his hiding place, and then he sought help from Viserys.
Chapter 509 Devouring the Old Gods
What do you want to do?
After learning all this, Viserys did not panic. Instead, he turned around and asked the Three-Eyed Raven in a calm voice.
"Erase the impact you have caused and get the world back on track."
The Three-Eyed Raven spoke expressionlessly.
"The impact you have caused may seem insignificant, merely a secular power shift, but in reality, it has affected the normal course of history in this world."
The Three-Eyed Raven can predict fewer and fewer things now, because Viserys's changes to the world have completely altered the original trajectory.
"If the impact you have caused is allowed to continue to spread, it may lead to irreversible consequences."
Viserys raised an eyebrow slightly as he listened to the white-haired old man's words.
"as a result of?"
"From what you've said, I feel like I'm some kind of heinous criminal, but what terrible things have I done to make you so afraid?"
Viserys was curious as to why the Three-Eyed Raven was so determined to attack him. What had he done to make the Raven feel so threatened that it was willing to take action at such a time?
"No, you did nothing, and you are not a heinous person."
"On the contrary, many of the things you do are right."
The white-haired old man shook his head and said that as a former Hand of the King of Aerys I and Mecca I, he had a keen political eye and knew the significance of what Viserys was doing.
He did not deny what Viserys had done; on the contrary, he gave it high praise. But then he saw a fleeting look of confusion on Viserys' face before he began to explain.
"But your very existence is a mistake."
Viserys fell silent for a moment.
"Your influence on the world is so profound that it has made the outcome of the final war unpredictable, and many key figures involved in the war have had their fates altered under your influence."
In short, Viserys' existence changed the fate of too many people.
But firstly, Viserys didn't know what the Three-Eyed Raven meant by the Endgame. Was it a war against the White Walkers? Or some other kind of threat?
What he couldn't understand even more was why the Three-Eyed Raven was so sure it would lose.
If he were to unify the Seven Kingdoms and unite more forces, the future of Westeros would clearly be brighter than it was after the War of the Five Kings.
However, the Three-Eyed Raven gave Viserys an answer.
"I can't gamble."
Since there is a future where victory can be seen, even if the process is somewhat tumultuous, the final result will still be good. Why would he gamble on some future that cannot be seen?
"My job is to keep the world on its normal course."
"so what?"
"Just for an uncertain future, they want to erase my existence? And return me to the so-called correct path of the world?"
Viserys laughed inexplicably when he heard the Three-Eyed Raven's words. In his eyes, this was a classic story of sacrificing the little man for the sake of the big family.
But no one ever asked this abandoned nobody what he was really thinking.
“In that case, Brinden Rivers.”
Viserys then drew his Twilight Blade from his waist and pointed it directly at the Three-Eyed Raven.
"Enough talk, draw your sword."
In fact, Viserys didn't need to say so much to him.
Since the other party has already attacked him and trapped him in the past, it is definitely not something that can be persuaded to let him go back in just a few words.
However, Viserys' conversation with the Three-Eyed Raven wasn't just about finding out the specific reason; he was also slowly using his mental power to probe the entire world.
This is a learning process; Viserys also learned how to control his mental abilities in his confrontation with the Three-Eyed Raven.
Both are now virtual spiritual entities, so the Three-Eyed Raven can have a complete body, while Viserys subconsciously still has his original attire, so his sword and clothes are still on his body.
He can draw his sword at any time and point it directly at his opponent.
It all depends on what he thinks.
But once you figure that out, things get really interesting.
Viserys's figure gradually disappeared from the spot, replaced by a cartoon character he once liked. Then, it transformed again, eventually becoming a giant dragon covered in thick scales.
Viserys transformed into the likeness of Belial, while the Three-Eyed Raven remained standing, leaning on a scepter made from a branch of the Heart Tree, gazing calmly at the colossal dragon that blotted out the sky above, his face radiating confidence and certainty of victory.
The power of the Old Gods dragged Viserys into this world, the Three-Eyed Raven's home turf, blessed with the power of the Old Gods.
After taking Viserys on a tour, he returned to the year 233 of the Aegonian calendar, when he had just joined the Night's Watch.
Then, a deafening roar came from the dragon above. Viserys transformed into Balerion, unleashing a torrent of raging dragonfire that attacked the three-eyed raven below.
Meanwhile, Brynden Rivers, who had already gone far away with his Night's Watch brothers, seemed to sense something again, and this time it was even stronger.
He couldn't help but stop and turn to look at the sky behind him. His eyes were dim and yellow, and his gray hair fluttered in the wind, but all he could see was a vast expanse of white snow. He couldn't see anything else.
And on another level that they cannot see.
The mental battle between Viserys and the Three-Eyed Raven has reached a fever pitch. No matter how the mental battle changes, it is ultimately just a contest of mental strength and resilience.
The Three-Eyed Raven, empowered by the Old Gods, was no less formidable than Viserys; his expression remained calm and undisturbed.
Although the outcome of this war is still uncertain, if he wins, he will relinquish his physical body, taking the power of the Old Gods with him into Viserys' body to end all the effects he has caused and return the world to its original state...
And if he loses...
In the midst of the fierce battle, Viserys, transformed into a dragon, spread his wings and soared through the air.
However, as he turned around and swooped down towards the ground again, black flames burst into flames around him, and thick black mist enveloped the dragon's entire body.
Bellerion transformed completely into a demonic dragon, while the three-eyed raven below, who had maintained a calm demeanor, finally changed his expression drastically.
"what?"
He had been observing Viserys's life, but he seemed never to have seen this kind of black mist before.
The black mist seemed to possess its own consciousness; it deliberately deceived the Three-Eyed Raven's eyes, preventing him from noticing its presence, and then it erupted all at once.
But outside the home...
The conversation beneath the roots of the Heart Tree paused for a second. The Three-Eyed Raven was still talking about responsibility and duty, but suddenly stopped. Viserys also paused for a second.
The two forest girls were a little confused, but then the white-haired old man, who was tied to the tree roots, tilted his neck and drooped his head.
Viserys, sitting opposite him, slowly opened his eyes, and in his eyes appeared an ancient weirwood tree radiating golden light.
Chapter 510 The Last Green Prophet
"The Green Prophet!"
"What happened to the last Green Prophet?"
Seeing the white-haired old man suddenly tilt his head to the side and become weak and powerless, and even the power of the Heart Tree could not make him raise his head again, the two forest children immediately showed anxious expressions.
The power of the Green Prophet will fade away, and the Children of the Forest will also be lost in the long river of history; the two are complementary forces.
Meanwhile, Viserys, sitting under the tree, remained silent for a long time, his eyes flashing with countless images as he looked at each other.
"Tsk."
Then the silver-haired youth finally came to his senses for a second. He realized that his current situation was not good, and then he gritted his teeth slightly.
"Stop!"
He used his willpower to forcefully stop the countless images flashing before his eyes.
"Whoo~"
A pale purple flame suddenly burst forth from a pair of eyes that were flashing with images.
This was the manifestation of his mental power reaching its limit after reaching the age of thirty, like the icy blue flames in the Night King's eyes.
His original mental strength far surpassed that of the Three-Eyed Raven and Brandon, thus giving him great autonomy in the fight against the Old Gods' power; he could at least choose when to stop.
"Whoo~"
Viserys suddenly came to his senses and sat on the tree stump, panting heavily.
His eyes finally regained their clarity, and his mind slowly awoke from the endless river of history.
For a brief moment, Viserys almost lost himself in the vast expanse of time, losing his consciousness and gradually becoming a part of time itself. Joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness—all emotions were leaving him.
Because he had witnessed too many emotions in these countless scenes, from initial curiosity to being overwhelmed, all of these had numbed him until Viserys finally used his willpower to forcibly end it all and then came to his senses.
Fortunately, the presence of black mist within him helped him restrain the power of the old gods, and his own spiritual strength was also high enough that he managed to struggle out of a sliver of hope.
Otherwise, the consequences of an ordinary person being corrupted by the power of the Old Gods would be unimaginable.
That would completely reduce them to a machine in time, numbly maintaining the normal operation of the world's trajectory, without even realizing it, lacking their own consciousness.
At this point, Viserys finally understood why the Three-Eyed Raven and Bran had both undergone drastic personality changes after receiving the power of the Old Gods.
