Game of Thrones: The Wrath of the Sleeping Dragon

Unfortunately, the hot-tempered Red Queen had already set her sights on it. Although the White Walkers moved extremely fast, the dragons flew even faster. Once they spotted their target, they swooped down almost instantly, as easily as an eagle catching a chick.

Vaghar spewed out a crimson pillar of fire that slammed into the ground, unleashing a torrent of flames that engulfed the White Walker who had just harmed Silver Nugget.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Dragon Crystal Giant Crossbow of the human alliance once again unleashed its power.

With the last ice dragon of the White Walkers having escaped, the four Valyrian dragons successfully seized air superiority on the battlefield.

The entire sky was now under human control. The dragon's flames disrupted the wights' attack, and the few remaining White Walkers hiding in the horde were gradually exposed.

Although the temperature of the dragon flames was extremely high, the 'boys' and 'girls' such as Vagehar, Terex, and Mirasis had not yet grown into adult dragons.

Their dragonfire had not yet reached its maximum temperature, so they could not melt ordinary White Walkers directly like their predecessor, 'Black Death' Balerion.

Ordinary White Walkers could at least last a little longer under the burning of dragonfire, but the vast horde of wights did not have such an ability. The dragonfire swept across, and all the wights were burned to ashes, exposing the White Walkers hiding among them.

bang bang bang-

Thus, the dragonglass crossbows, serving as 'White Walker killers,' once again shone brightly. One after another, dragonglass bolts, gleaming with a deep, dark light, shot through the air, flying straight towards the exposed White Walkers, taking their lives and reducing them to ashes.

"Counterattack!"

With the help of the dragons, the human alliance launched a powerful counterattack, including the Tiger-Robed Army of Valantius, the Imperial Army, the Dothraki, the Braavos, and the slave guards of Slaver's Bay.

Everyone put aside their differences and identities, united as one, brandishing their weapons and charging fiercely towards their common enemy.

Unity can defeat all enemies.

Humanity may only be able to unite and understand each other in times of crisis, but the power that is unleashed when they unite is equally astonishing.

On the other side...

Call ~

One after the other, the two giant dragons flew a hundred miles away in the blink of an eye.

Viserys, riding Balerion, was in hot pursuit of the Night King, who, riding an ice dragon, was just as fast.

It kept turning back, seemingly trying to shake off Viserys, but it couldn't do it at all, and it was extremely difficult for Viserys to catch up with it.

But Viserys had no intention of giving up; instead, he was determined to pursue the enemy to the end and kill him.

He had just seen the current state of the Kohor battlefield, which reminded him of the prophecy brought to him by Xu Ying, a man from Yidi.

In the prophecy, Viserys fought the White Walkers in a city almost wiped out by war. In the end, all of humanity was wiped out, Balerion apparently died and merged with it, and the wights and all the White Walkers seemed to be destroyed as well.

Kohol's current situation is almost identical to the prediction Xu Ying made to him.

If the prophecy had followed its course, Viserys would not have risked returning to King's Landing to take other dragons to aid him in the battle. Instead, he insisted on fighting the Night King alone, ultimately destroying the city of Corhol and wiping out everyone in it. He was then affected by some unknown influence, resulting in an unknown change. However, in the prophecy, Viserys did not know whether this change was good or bad.

But this was clearly not the outcome Viserys wanted, so he continued to try to break the prophecy of the Temple of Immortality.

He took four dragons from King's Landing in a gamble that put his capital and wife in danger, and upon arriving in Corhol, he relentlessly pursued the fleeing Night King.

But at that moment, a doubt flashed through his mind: Could the Night King be deliberately luring him into a trap?

But he quickly dismissed the idea, because this was a golden opportunity, and he had to kill the other party no matter what, otherwise the war would be difficult to win.

The Night King fled ahead, while Viserys pursued him relentlessly from behind.

The two people and the two dragons flew one after the other for an unknown amount of time—a day? Two days? Viserys couldn't remember.

The sky above remained an unchanging darkness, and Bellerion had not rested at all, becoming quite exhausted. Only when he saw the trembling sea did he descend from the sky to rest.

Meanwhile, the Night King and his ice dragon needed no rest. He landed on a small hill a few kilometers away from Viserys and turned to look at Viserys.

Although the two were far apart, they could still see each other.

The Night King stared intently at Viserys, but Viserys always felt that the other was not looking at him, but at the black stone he was carrying.

Then they saw the other person sit down on the ground, waiting for Viserys to recover.

Chapter 886 The Land of Eternal Winter

Balerion needed to stop and rest, and the Night King was sitting quietly on a hilltop not far away, waiting.

Viserys' eyes narrowed slightly at the sight, which further confirmed his suspicions. However, he turned his head to look south and thought of the sacrifices humanity had made for this war, only to give up at the last moment. His wavering was dispelled.

He then found a fairly comfortable spot, sat down, closed his eyes, and rested, completely ignoring the White Walker leader over there.

The Night King looked at Viserys, who was far away, and the icy blue flames in his eyes flickered slightly. No one knew what he was thinking, and his face remained expressionless.

A long silence fell between the human and the ghost. Bellerion, having traversed half of the continent of Essos in one breath, was exhausted and lay down on the ground to fall into a deep sleep.

After an unknown amount of time, Balerion even took the time to go hunting, but the Night King remained steadfast in his resistance, even when Viserys was the only one sitting there.

This left Viserys, who was trying to lure the other side into launching an attack, slightly disappointed.

The Night King was far too cautious. Perhaps it had learned from its mistakes, but it was unwilling to reveal any possible weakness. It patiently waited in place, preferring to do nothing rather than make a mistake.

Finally, the Night King patiently waited for Viserys to finish resting before climbing back onto the dragon's back to begin a new race.

Viserys was somewhat helpless. His opponent was a tireless undead dragon driven by magic, while Bellerion was made of flesh and blood. It was impossible for him to catch up with his opponent, and he could not possibly lose in a contest of endurance.

He was also unclear about the Night King's thought process. At first, it seemed to want to get rid of him and escape, but then it seemed to give up on that plan and tried to lure him to a certain place.

Viserys suspected there might be a carefully prepared trap for him, and thus wavered slightly for a second.

Because of Xu Ying's prophecy, which foretold a annihilation of both humans and White Walkers, even Balerion was killed in battle.

However, the reality has changed drastically from the prophecy, and Viserys cannot be certain whether the prophesied scenario will still occur.

Last time in Loras, due to Bellerion's injury and other reasons, Viserys did not continue to pursue his opponent.

But this time he was determined not to let the other side escape, otherwise the sacrifices made by countless people would be in vain.

The Night King rode his ice dragon toward the boundless, trembling sea, while Viserys followed closely behind on Balerion.

The two dragons stretched out their wings one after the other and soon disappeared into the eternal darkness. The human world behind them gradually disappeared, leaving only endless, cold seawater.

What is the northernmost point of the world like?

Viserys had thought about this question before, but he stopped at Frostfang and did not venture any further.

Legend has it that further north lies the territory of the Thron people, and beyond that lies the Land of Eternal Winter, a forbidden zone for life. Even the fierce Thron people dare not continue northward, for that place holds the secrets of this world.

The White Walkers have been extinct in the civilized world for eight thousand years, but in reality, they have never disappeared. Instead, they have always lived in the forbidden land of eternal winter.

The wildlings living north of the Wall were not unfamiliar with the White Walkers, as they had always lived peacefully with them. There were even rumors that some wildlings would have intercourse with White Walkers and give birth to half-human, half-demon monsters.

At that time, the White Walkers had not yet moved south and had been living in the farthest land of Everwinter. People like the Thane and the cavemen were able to coexist peacefully with the White Walkers. However, when the White Walkers suddenly moved south, these wildlings were the first to react. Unable to withstand the White Walkers' attack, they had no choice but to turn their attention southward and flee.

Viserys and the Night King are now heading north one after the other. Viserys observes that they are not heading due north, but slightly off to the northwest.

He secretly guessed that the Night King might lure him to the Land of Everwinter, the home of the White Walkers. Viserys had briefly possessed the Eye of God with Melisandre's help, and Melisandre claimed that it was the eye of R'hllor, representing everything He had seen.

In Rahlo's view, the North was already shrouded in darkness. The power of the Red God was intertwined with the threads of darkness, and the distant Land of Eternal Winter was the core of this dark vortex, the purest and most extreme darkness.

Then, an unknown amount of time passed. During this time, Viserys found an unnamed island to rest on in the endless, trembling sea, and the Night King did the same, resting far apart from it.

Before finding the island, Viserys even had a vague suspicion that the other party wanted to exhaust Bellerion to death and then drown himself in the sea.

Because the Trembling Sea was so vast, Bellerion flew for several days before finally finding a place to rest; otherwise, he would have been exhausted.

However, this continued, and the Night King seemed not at all afraid that Viserys had seen through its intentions. It continued to wait for Viserys to rest in the distance.

Although the other person's face was always expressionless, with only the icy blue flames in their eyes occasionally flickering, Viserys always felt as if the other person was mocking him, and he felt slightly embarrassed.

Viserys and Bellerion rested on the island for about a day, during which time he pondered the situation on the distant battlefield. He didn't know how much time had passed, but he assumed the battle there was over. Was it a victory? A defeat? Or some other outcome?

However, Viserys was unaware of this, as he was already too far away. The connection brought by the black mist had been severed, and the glass candle was not with him. But with four dragons aiding him, even the worst outcome couldn't be too bad.

The two then headed northwest once more. This time, after a long flight, Viserys gradually felt the familiar power slowly returning, and the power of the Old Gods was restored.

And after this feeling arose, not long after, the blurry outline of the continent gradually appeared in the distance.

Chapter 887 The White Walkers' Lair

This result is largely consistent with Viserys's earlier prediction.

They were indeed flying northwest, and the Night King wanted to lure him to the Land of Everwinter, the White Walkers' lair and home turf, where he might have set a trap for Viserys.

However, having returned to Westeros from Essos, with the power of the Old Gods returning, and since this was also Viserys's home turf, he wasn't exactly at a disadvantage.

Therefore, Viserys had the confidence to continue the pursuit. His opponent would eventually stop, and when he stopped and wanted to counterattack, that would be his opportunity.

The cold wind howled from beyond the Great Wall, and the frigid temperature enveloped his entire body. Viserys could sense that the power of the Old Gods had fully returned. The Old Gods' power was limited by the region, perhaps because their original form was a weirwood tree. However, the return of the Old Gods' power undoubtedly confirmed that they had returned to Westeros.

Viserys sat atop the dragon's back, gazing down at the mountains and rivers below. He couldn't discern where he was, but feeling the piercing coldness of the air as he breathed in, he knew it must be a realm never before explored by humans.

However, as Viserys was observing his surroundings, and after flying an unknown distance, a faint light suddenly appeared on the distant horizon, directly attracting Viserys's attention in the completely dark environment.

"This is?"

Viserys was slightly taken aback, because the long night had been going on for a year and a half, and everyone had long since become accustomed to the darkness. Therefore, the sudden appearance of light in the outdoor environment would naturally attract their attention.

However, as the two dragons flew one after the other toward the place where the light had been born, Viserys' surprise turned into awe.

Because he clearly saw what that light that appeared at the boundary between heaven and earth was, as they continued to fly forward, the light also grew larger and larger in front of him, and finally appeared completely.

"Is that sunlight?"

"The depths of the Eternal Motion Land are actually in daylight?"

Viserys was utterly shocked. When the long night descended and a world-class catastrophe engulfed everything, he had considered many solutions, but he had never imagined the reversal of day and night, where it was night outside but day in the Land of Perpetual Motion.

"Could it be some kind of geographical factor? The Land of Perpetual Motion is undoubtedly the extreme point of the world."

Viserys's mind was in chaos. The amount of information was too much and too shocking, which made his mind a mess, completely beyond his expectations.

But following this complex mix of emotions—shock, surprise, confusion, and more—another feeling of excitement arose.

No one knows how to end the long night, since the ancestors did not give him any enlightenment. He always guessed that he had to kill the Night King. However, the reality is that there is a bigger boss behind the Night King. He is just a high-level worker. The Night King does not have the ability to create the long night. If he had such an ability, Viserys would have turned around and run away long ago. So, can killing the Night King really end the long night?

But now that he had been lured here, Viserys' heart began to beat slightly faster. It was the first time in a year and a half that he had seen the long-lost sunlight, and he felt that the key to unlocking the secrets of the long night might lie here.

The barrier of daylight lies ahead, divided by a towering snow-capped mountain. One side of the mountain is shrouded in eternal darkness, while the other side is bathed in warm sunlight.

Then, the two dragons, one after the other, swiftly passed through the barrier of daylight and arrived in the familiar world. The familiar sunlight and warmth made Viserys take a deep breath, reveling in the vibrant environment.

With ample sunshine, the perceived temperature on the north side of the snow-capped mountain has risen significantly. No one would have imagined that this land of perpetual winter, known as a forbidden zone for life, would begin to teem with life.
