For some reason, this sentence suddenly popped into Viserys's mind. Since the Storm God is the eternal enemy of the Drowned God in the Ironborn's faith, then isn't the raven's opponent the Drowned God?

"Roar--"

However, just as Viserys was pondering, a loud roar suddenly came from the turbulent sea. This sound made the entire angry sea even more violent, and the towering waves that rose up were hundreds of meters high, seemingly able to touch the sky!

Even Viserys, who was deep in thought, was startled and quickly looked up towards the sea.

Then they saw a huge sea beast with a slender and strong body, covered with cold scales, and with a long fin on its back!

Its figure disappeared into the surging waves as it roared to the sky, its scarlet eyes filled with madness, as if it were declaring war on the giant raven that was stirring up storms and thunder overhead.

"What is this thing?!"

Viserys' heart skipped a beat when he saw the colossal beast hidden in the waves. Even someone as experienced as him was awestruck by the battle between these mythical behemoths.

This giant ocean creature is definitely more than a hundred meters long; its figure hidden beneath the waves is even larger, possibly hundreds or even thousands of meters long.

Compared to it, the crow, which was about the size of a calf, seemed less eye-catching.

"Could it be the Drowning God?"

Viserys stood in the void, witnessing this mythical battle firsthand, and couldn't help but feel a stirring in his heart, vaguely guessing the identity of the other party.

Because in the mythology of the Iron People, the Drowning God and the Storm God are eternal enemies, and since it is speculated that the Raven is the Storm God, then his adversary is the legendary Drowning God.

"Is the Drowned God a sea dragon?"

"No, to be precise, it seems more like a sea serpent."

The colossal beast in the waves was covered in cold scales, with fins and an exoskeleton like those of marine creatures on its back. However, it had no wings and remained hidden in the waves during its battle with the crow, suggesting that it was incapable of flight.

Viserys forced himself to calm down and thought seriously. At first, he connected the other party with the dragon in his memory. However, upon closer inspection, the two were only similar in appearance, but in fact there were still big differences.

This behemoth is more like a giant sea serpent than a sea dragon!

Chapter 710 People on the Wooden Boat

The battle between the crows and the sea serpents stirred up towering waves, dark clouds loomed overhead, and thunder rumbled through the air.

The two sides fought fiercely, their eyes bloodshot with rage. Countless crows perished in the towering waves, their black carcasses covering the sea surface. Meanwhile, the giant sea serpent was battered and bruised by the powerful thunderbolts, its blood staining the sea crimson.

However, none of the bloodthirsty marine predators were attracted by this blood; they all hid in the distance, trembling with fear.

Viserys was completely engrossed in this 'war of the gods,' a battle between ancient mythical beasts that raged until blood flowed freely.

But then, something happened that shocked even Viserys.

Suddenly, a dilapidated wooden boat emerged from the turbulent waves, and on the boat stood a human wearing a gray cloak!

He carried an ancient longsword on his back, his strong arms gripped the oars, and with unparalleled skill, he steered the seemingly dilapidated wooden boat through the wind and waves, straight through the raging storm, and headed towards the sea serpent!

"what?"

Viserys, who was engrossed in the fierce battle between the mythical beasts, was instantly drawn to the wooden ship.

He saw the wooden boat that had braved the wind and waves, nearly capsizing several times, and the sailors who were piloting it.

Without any hesitation in the face of death, he continued straight toward the sea serpent.

"Who is he?"

Viserys felt a sense of awe, because in his view, this ship-controlling technology had reached a level that was unprecedented and unparalleled.

When he was young, he had accompanied the Dragonstone fleet on an expedition to Storm's End, so he had witnessed firsthand how small human-controlled ships appeared in the storm.

Even giant ships many times larger than this wooden boat cannot remain stable in such waves, yet the waves stirred up by the sea serpents and crows are now almost comparable to the unprecedented storm that struck the narrow sea back then.

And this was the eye of the storm. Although the dilapidated wooden boat looked like it was about to capsize several times, it still stumbled and rushed toward the sea serpent.

"Who is he?"

What does he want to do?

Viserys looked at the wooden ship and the strong human in the gray cloak on board, and a sense of unease stirred within him, giving rise to many questions.

He didn't know what era they were in, but he was certain that such people and such a great war would inevitably leave their mark on history.

Viserys decided that once this matter was settled, he would definitely start researching some historical records to thoroughly investigate the origins of this human in the gray cloak carrying a sword on his back and this terrifying sea serpent.

However, he is more concerned about what happened next.

The giant sea serpent in the ocean was engaged in a fierce battle with the crows overhead, its entire attention focused on its nemesis soaring in the sky.

Because its attention was drawn to the sky, it didn't notice a wooden boat quietly approaching it on the sea.

Meanwhile, the black raven covered in lightning seemed to be intentionally providing cover for the human, constantly emitting sharp, piercing cries to summon lightning and attract the attention of the giant sea serpent.

It flew at an extremely fast speed, its body crackling with lightning as it pierced through layers of dark clouds, accompanied by a high-pitched cry.

However, at this moment, the wooden boat finally managed to get close to the huge body of the sea serpent after overcoming countless difficulties.

The sailor on the bow, whose face was obscured by a gray cloak, threw down his oar, stood up, and drew his longsword from his back.

What is he going to do?

Viserys, who was hovering in the void overlooking the great battle, narrowed his eyes slightly.

This was the umpteenth time he had asked this question, because the other party's actions were too shocking.

Unfortunately, the enormous sea serpent eventually noticed the 'little guy' beside it.

Then it let out a roar and its powerful body slammed into the poor little wooden boat. The boat was instantly reduced to dust, leaving only driftwood floating on the sea, and the little person on the boat disappeared into the waves.

"What a pity."

Viserys sighed slightly upon seeing this.

He had initially thought this young man, whose ship-handling skills were terrifying, was about to do something extraordinary, but at the last moment, the sea serpent discovered him and smashed the wooden boat to pieces with a single blow.

His gaze then returned to the battle between the sea serpent and the crow. He felt that this person was doomed; falling into such a storm would be certain death.

The crow also saw the human being discovered by his mortal enemy at the last moment and then disappear into the waves, and immediately let out an angry cry.

It seems that it has been preparing for this battle for a long time. However, the sea serpent can stir up waves that reach the sky, while the crow can summon storms and thunder to bombard the sea serpent.

But neither side seemed to be able to defeat the other. The crow was unable to rush into the waves to fight the sea serpent, and the sea serpent did not grow wings to fly into the sky. Therefore, the battle between the two mythical beasts seemed to end inconclusively.

However, at that moment, something unexpected happened.

"puff--"

The human, whose wooden boat had just been blasted apart by the sea serpent and capsized in the sea, seemed to struggle to climb onto the sea serpent's back. He spat out a mouthful of seawater he had choked on and clung tightly to the sea serpent's scales.

He was an excellent swimmer, and the waves could not defeat him. He clung tightly to the sea serpent's scales, then raised his head and looked into the distance with unwavering determination. He then laboriously climbed step by step toward the top of the sea serpent's head.

Viserys, who was not from this era and was suspended in mid-air, couldn't help but hold his breath when he saw this scene.

"This person..."

He even felt a sense of immersive tension, as if he had stepped into the body of this struggling young man, moving forward step by step towards his goal, never retreating.

Unfortunately, the young man's sword seemed to have fallen into the sea, bobbing in the waves that had just been overturned.

Viserys even felt an urge to retrieve the sword for him, but he refrained.

Because he knew it was just a memory from the past, not something that was actually happening.

Did he ultimately succeed?

The question popped into Viserys's mind, but he didn't know the answer yet.

Then, a sharp bird cry rang out once more from above Viserys' head, as a raven, flying at incredible speed and crackling with lightning, appeared.

It seemed to have noticed the problem as well, and then for the first time, it swooped down below the surface of the sea, reaching the lowest height it had never been before. The waves and tails of the sea serpent could even whip it up!

However, the crow flew extremely fast. It risked great danger, pierced through the wind and waves, and suddenly snatched the long sword in its mouth. Like an eagle soaring into the sky, it flew high into the sky again, dodging the powerful blow from the sea serpent's tail.

It carried the long sword in its mouth to the sky above the young man, then released its grip and threw the sword down.

Chapter 711 Gray Sea King

The sea serpent, bobbing in the waves below, naturally noticed this as well. It opened its massive jaws, full of fangs, and roared, seemingly wanting to shatter the sword, but it was too late.

The sword fell from the sky and landed precisely in the hands of the human wearing a gray cloak.

His clothes were already soaked by the cold seawater, and his hood had fallen down, revealing a head of long gray hair and an ordinary yet resolute face. His eyes were also gray, but they were full of determination.

"Go to hell!"

Then, wielding the longsword, he charged up to the top of the sea serpent's head, raised it high, and stabbed it down fiercely.

"Roar!!!"

The enormous sea serpent suddenly let out a roar many times louder than before, the sound reverberating far and wide, and the waves it stirred up once again drove back the crows overhead.

This sword seems to possess terrifying magical power, making it incredibly lethal to this sea serpent.

"He actually succeeded!"

"So what will happen next?"

Viserys kept a close eye on the battle unfolding below, his heart pounding with excitement.

He never expected that igniting the raven's skull with divine fire would lead to such a breathtaking battle.

The crows, driven back by the waves, were also staring intently down below, just like Viserys, emitting sharp cries.

Because that human was the 'lucky one' he chose.

He bestowed upon the man a weapon capable of killing sea serpents, as well as a treasure that allowed him to traverse the waves, all so that this insignificant mortal could assassinate his mortal enemy and obtain the thing he had always dreamed of.

However, now that the human had succeeded, the raven's eyes revealed an uncontrollable joy and tension. It couldn't wait to fly down and take the fire from Naga's body, but the raven was also extremely cautious by nature. It hesitated, and it had to be sure that the other party was really dead before it dared to fly down.

But then, something unexpected happened to the crow.

Before it died, the giant sea serpent struggled as it sank into the depths of the sea, dragging the hero who had killed it down with it into the icy water until he was completely submerged.

Upon seeing this, the crow let out a sharp cry and swooped down toward the sea, trying to be the first to take the fire from the sea serpent's body.

However, at the last moment, it seemed that it was worried about whether the opponent was faking defeat, so it set a trap, lured it close, and then killed it directly.

The crow, suspicious by nature, hovered hesitantly on the surface of the sea, while the merciless deep sea was gradually swallowing the corpse of the enormous sea serpent and the hero who had killed it, its scalding blood staining the entire seawater red.

The young warrior in the gray cloak and with gray hair seemed to be struggling, but he couldn't escape no matter what he did, and he choked on several mouthfuls of cold seawater.
