During this time, Viserys also unexpectedly encountered the lost Benjen, which was quite unexpected for him.
He had met the chief ranger of the Night's Watch when he, along with several Night's Watch soldiers who had escaped from the crypts of Winterfell and Tyrion, who had survived the explosion at Neck, fled to Dragonstone. He later met Viserys and conveyed an invitation from Brynden Rivers, the Three-Eyed Raven.
Viserys went to the North for this reason, and happened to see the Three-Eyed Raven for the last time. However, since the Three-Eyed Raven possessed certain prophetic abilities, it is unknown whether this was part of his calculations.
The Three-Eyed Raven attempted to seize Viserys's body, but failed in the battle of wits and was ultimately devoured by Viserys, who then absorbed the power of the Old Gods, resulting in a significant leap in its strength.
Viserys unexpectedly encountered the lost Benjen in the wilderness. He could tell that Benjen was dead and was now a wight.
However, Benjen's actions surprised Viserys, because according to his observation, Benjen seemed to still retain his sanity, and he voluntarily followed the White Walker carrying the black stone northward.
Therefore, the group consisted of two people, one in front and one behind, but there was actually another Viserys whom neither of them could see. The three of them headed north.
Then came the sacrificial ceremony that Benjen later witnessed. The White Walker placed the black stone, the size of a human head, on the altar, which then unleashed blue flames, leaving Benjen in a daze.
Viserys was watching the ceremony intently at that moment.
He sensed danger emanating from it and instantly felt as if he were facing a formidable enemy. He vaguely felt that there was an even greater crisis hidden behind this black stone and the blue flames.
Viserys even managed to escape before witnessing the entire sacrificial ritual, hastily returning to the real world, thus narrowly escaping disaster.
When he woke up, Daenerys was already asleep in his arms, and it seemed that it was already quite late outside.
Since the arrival of the long night, the world's day and night have disappeared, and people's perception of time has also changed.
Viserys held his sister with his eyes slightly closed, feeling the warmth emanating from the girl's young and vibrant body, his mind wandering as he thought about what he had just witnessed.
If Viserys weren't a fool, he would know that the black stone was definitely something very important.
"what is it?"
However, at that moment, Viserys suddenly felt the girl in his arms twist slightly, as if she had changed her position, and then continued to sleep soundly while holding him.
The silver-haired young man slightly opened his eyes and looked down at Daenerys. Although the entire cave was now dark, his eyes could still see in the absence of light.
My younger sister is indeed very cute.
As Daenerys slept, her lips were pouting, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly. Viserys felt the warmth in his arms, and a strange emotion welled up inside him.
But when he thought of Daenerys as a newborn girl, the baby in swaddling clothes, and how he held her with trembling hands, that feeling vanished in an instant.
After an unknown amount of time, Viserys closed his eyes, held Daenerys in his arms, and drifted into a light sleep.
The girl in his arms stirred slightly again, as if stretching. After sleeping for several hours, Daenerys finally woke up.
But she couldn't see Viserys' face clearly in the darkness. She was certain that the warm embrace belonged to Viserys, and guessed that he was already asleep. So she didn't want to disturb him, but quietly raised her soft lips and gently kissed his cheek.
Then she saw a pair of pale purple eyes that seemed to hold light, quietly watching her from the darkness.
"you're awake?"
Daenerys was startled, but then hugged Viserys even tighter in the darkness.
"Ah."
Viserys nodded slightly. In reality, how could he possibly sleep with Daenerys right next to him?
Then Viserys looked around and spoke.
"Now that you're awake, let's go."
The two dragons, Bellerion and Viserion, are still waiting outside; they've been waiting for most of the day.
Moreover, they have been away from the Wall for so long. Although Viserys and Daenerys are not in any danger because they have dragons with them, it is still worrying.
"I don't want to leave."
However, Viserys's words elicited a different answer from Daenerys.
"Viserys, if only we could stay here forever."
“I don’t want a vast empire, I don’t want to be a princess, or even a queen, and I certainly don’t want to become an empress one day.”
In reality, Daenerys prefers an ordinary life. Of course, it's also possible that she's been a princess for too long and is getting tired of it, so she might not be used to being a commoner.
Daenerys has always addressed Viserys by his first name, just like Reyne, but for some reason, she suddenly changed it to "brother."
"I want to have a child with you."
Daenerys suddenly spoke seriously.
Then, in the darkness, the silver-gold hair girl flipped over and sat on Viserys, then lowered her head and kissed him. This time, she kissed Viserys' lips, even sticking out her tongue.
Chapter 791 Magic Potions
Meanwhile, in King's Landing, the capital of the empire.
Inside a mysterious laboratory within the Imperial Hospital.
"Ho-"
A merman monster covered in scales and smooth skin lay on the experimental bed, emitting a chilling growl.
His bloodshot eyes stared at the face of a 'boy' who looked only six or seven years old. The girl's face turned pale instantly, and she trembled slightly as she held the surgical tray in her hands. However, she controlled herself well and managed to suppress her fear.
"Hemostats".
Just then, a calm, aged voice came from above her head. The boy couldn't hear it clearly, but he saw the old man's gesture. He trembled and quickly reacted, handing over a small pair of pliers from the plate.
The one who spoke was Qyburn, who had been expelled from the city for conducting human experiments and later joined the Warriors.
The Warriors were destroyed by Viserys, and Qyburn gained Viserys's favor, coming to King's Landing and having his own laboratory.
The 'boy' beside him was the abandoned child that Cobain had adopted. She was actually a girl, but she wore boy's clothes and had short hair, making her unrecognizable.
Ever since she was adopted by Qyburn, she has been learning dark medicine from this 'grandfather'.
"Ho-"
After a while, the monster lying on the experimental bed finally had its wounds bandaged and sat up again, its scarlet eyes still fixed on the girl.
"Lord Victalion."
"Don't scare Xiaomei."
Mesalia is the girl's name; Mei is just a shortened form of her name. Coburn had previously known the girl's name but found it to be very nice, so he didn't change it after adopting her.
Qyburn spoke in a hoarse voice, stepping in front of Victarion and his adopted daughter. The merman monster then withdrew its gaze, giving Qyburn a look of utter disgust and letting out a cold snort.
Anyone would feel uncomfortable having a lot of blood drawn from them every now and then. If it weren't for His Majesty the Emperor's order, Victalion would have already snapped the old man's neck.
However, he dared not do so, because ever since Viserys restored his senses, he had a vague feeling that he was being controlled by the other party. If he really did so, perhaps even if he escaped into the sea, the other party would still be able to find him.
Afterwards, Victarion left Qyburn's laboratory. Of course, he didn't dare to walk openly in King's Landing. Instead, he swam to the sea through King's Landing's sewer system. Victarion was growing to love life in the sea and loathing life on land.
After Victorion left, the kind-hearted deaf-mute girl finally breathed a sigh of relief. She turned around and looked at her grandfather gratefully, but Qyburn did not look at her. Instead, he was focused on the results of the experiment.
"Ghost Dance Grass."
This was a potent poison, but Qyburn ground the poisonous plant into powder and extracted a mixture of leaves and powder, which he then dripped into the blood drawn from Victalion's body.
Victalion's blood does indeed possess extremely powerful energy, a fact that Qyburn has confirmed. The other party was infected with this curse under the attack of a certain monster, and Qyburn can see that this blood contains magical power.
However, when this magical power is injected into the human body, most people with weak willpower or poor physical condition will immediately experience convulsions and die.
Therefore, Coburn concluded that the magical power contained in this blood was too strong, and ordinary people could not withstand it. So he began large-scale experiments, hoping to find something in nature that could be mixed with this blood to slightly suppress the magical power contained in it.
However, when the powder of the Ghost Dance Grass was added to Victalion's blood, there was no reaction, and Qyburn's bright eyes flickered slightly.
Fortunately, he had another test subject.
"The venom of the lion-bodied, scorpion-tailed beast."
This is a very precious poison from the East, said to be the venom of a lion-bodied scorpion-tailed beast from the Gray Wasteland, each drop worth hundreds of gold dragons.
If Coyburn hadn't received funding from the Imperial treasury, he simply wouldn't have been able to afford such a precious poison.
However, when Coburn dripped the venom of the Sphinx into another sample of the merman monster's blood, the blood in the test tube underwent a violent change, as if it were boiling, with bubbles constantly rising to the surface.
"Ok?"
Koben's eyes narrowed slightly. This was the first time since he started his experiments that something could mutate with the blood of the merman monster.
"An Eastern sphinx with a scorpion tail?"
"Could it be that mermaids also originated from the East?"
Coburn's brain was racing, and he couldn't help but think of this possibility. Meanwhile, the deaf girl Mesalia couldn't help but walk over and look at the test tube that was reacting violently, her eyes filled with curiosity.
"Xiao Mei."
Then Qyburn made a gesture, and Mesalia's face immediately showed a look of reluctance, but she still bowed slightly and then turned to leave.
Meanwhile, Coburn picked up the two vials of blood obtained from the experiment and strode towards the cell beneath the laboratory.
Coburn's Cage.
This is the ultimate nightmare for all criminals in King's Landing. Word of this dark dungeon has gradually spread among the prisoners, and all those sentenced to death know that if they are taken away by a group of masked men in black, they will almost certainly not return alive.
However, right now, two fresh bodies recently delivered by the Ministry of Internal Affairs are tied to beds in the underground cell, with two men in black guarding the door.
"Cobbons".
Although Coburn no longer held the title of Sergeant, he didn't care about it, but the people in the Ministry of the Interior still addressed him that way.
"Who are these two people?"
Coburn glanced at the two prisoners inside; one was strong and muscular, while the other was relatively thin.
"A robber and murderer."
"Another one."
The masked agent turned and glanced at the thin criminal.
"Rapist."
Coburn's expression immediately showed a hint of understanding. Although he didn't care what kind of people he killed, he could still kill some people who deserved to die with a clear conscience.
Mesalia then opened the cell door, and Qyburn walked in with two vials of blood. He looked at the two people lying on the bed, bound hand and foot, their mouths covered, their expressions filled with terror.
After a moment's thought, he injected the blood of the Ghost Dance Grass into the strong man, and another portion of blood mixed with the venom of the Lion-bodied Scorpion-tailed Beast into the rapist. Then he turned and left the cage, locked the door again, and quietly observed the changes in the two men.
