The gods present didn't even have time to react.
If we accept Kramdi's claim that Ragnarok has already arrived and that they are the only remaining gods in the world, with the vast divine realm shattered and empty, how could other gods possibly launch a sneak attack?
Moreover, the gods present are also outstanding beings. They joined forces to stop Rahlo, the King of Light, who attempted to destroy the divine realm and kill all the gods.
But none of them had any prior knowledge of this new guest, which was clearly illogical, and even the Thousand-Faced God, who was an expert in assassination, had not anticipated it.
"who is it?"
Viserys looked toward the Many-Faced God, while 'Calamity,' who controlled the Many-Faced God's body, quickly shook his head.
"do not know."
"The opponent did not use the space jump of the God of a Thousand Faces."
The Thousand-Faced God's assassination method is actually to hide in a folded space, silently appear at the coordinates that overlap with the target, and then jump back in space to complete the surprise assassination.
This is why the God of a Thousand Faces, though not particularly powerful, is feared by all the gods.
The 'Calamity' possessing the body of the Thousand-Faced God could completely control him, but he shook his head in denial, saying that the other party did not use the Thousand-Faced God's method, but rather descended suddenly by another method.
But now is not the time to discuss how the other party came to be.
The gods, including Kramdi, all wore solemn expressions, for the other party was clearly an enemy, not a friend.
call--
Countless eerie black branches spread out from the void, their trunks grotesque, their tips sharp as spears, densely covering the entire space, and then pounced towards the gods before them.
The gods, unaware of the origins of this suddenly appearing deity, and noticing the eerie aura emanating from these black branches reminiscent of the black threads binding the Lord of Light, R'hllor, naturally dared not be negligent and retreated in fear.
"Get out of the way!"
Viserys and the other gods, along with 'calamities,' were driven back by this suddenly appearing branch.
At the same time, they saw the core of the matter: with a series of popping sounds, several black branches exuding an eerie aura continued to penetrate into the black cocoon of the King of Light, Rahlo.
The Crimson God screamed once more from within the black cocoon, but then fell silent.
At this moment, the dense, raging black lines, resembling horsehair worms, seemed to quiet down. They gradually began to unravel, being absorbed into the branches, until finally revealing the King of Light, Rahlo, wrapped beneath the cocoon.
The former king of the gods now has a dull and lifeless body. His armor and clothes are torn, and there is a grotesque black hole in his chest.
The great and the tyrant were subdued. Several branches embedded in his divine body were slowly pulled out, leaving only the single branch that had entered through his back, still holding his corpse suspended in mid-air...
"The Red God is dead."
The gods present were all on edge, a sense of tension spreading through them.
After all, not long ago he was a big boss who wanted to destroy the divine realm, but in the blink of an eye he was easily killed by another god who appeared out of nowhere. How could this not make the gods feel nervous?
The gods looked tense, but Viserys was somewhat solemn, for he sensed a familiar presence emanating from these eerie black branches.
Chapter 1133 Black Weirwood
"This is..."
"The Old Gods?"
The aura was very familiar. Viserys hesitated only slightly before recognizing it, and his eyes became more serious than ever before.
The Old Gods have a very deep connection with Viserys. They formed an inextricable bond with the Old Gods when Viserys was still a mortal, including the Three-Eyed Raven, who served as the Old Gods' messenger on Earth.
The Three-Eyed Raven's character is ambiguous; he should be a guardian of history, doing his part to stop the spread of darkness, but for some reason, the Three-Eyed Raven has an inextricable connection with the Night King.
The previous Three-Eyed Raven, Brynden Rivers, even attempted to lure Viserys over and then take his place through mind devouring.
But Brynden Rivers did not expect that Viserys's spiritual power was even deeper than his own. Instead, he was devoured by Viserys and became the next Three-Eyed Raven, who could even use the power of the Old Gods to make prophecies and travel through time.
After Viserys became a god, he received much help from the Old Gods, including in this War of the Gods.
The Old Gods were actually instrumental in defeating Raholo, the Lord of Light.
Without the prophecy of the Old Gods, Viserys might have died long ago, and none of what followed would have happened.
Therefore, there has always been an inextricable connection between the Old Gods and Viserys.
Although the Old Gods disappeared after the last great war and did not participate in this one, the changes in the Asgard world have always been influenced by them; they are the manipulators behind Viserys.
However, now that Viserys and his son and daughter have joined forces to defeat Rahlos, the Lord of Light, the Many-Faced God seized the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow, causing the curse within the Red God to become uncontrollable and fall into a state of being controlled by the curse.
The gods all thought that everything would come to an end, but they never expected that a mastermind was hiding behind the scenes, who suddenly appeared and completely killed the Red Goddess, absorbing the curse within her.
"The Old Gods".
Looking at these black branches filled with void, Viserys's gaze was more solemn than ever before. This aura was not exactly the same as the Old Gods he had sensed before, but he could still recognize that this was the one.
She is the Old Goddess of the North, said to be the first deity in the world, originally growing on a weirwood tree in the north of Westeros.
The aura of the Old Gods has now undergone a complete and utter transformation from what Viserys once sensed.
The aura of the ancient gods was once gentle and quiet, like an old man slowly walking through the river of time. As the oldest god in the world, it quietly watched the world change, the sun rise and the moon set, and never interfered in the conflicts of the mortal world.
Even when her followers fought against humans, and humans cut down large numbers of weirwood trees, the Old Gods did not get angry or punish these humans. Instead, they treated every living being kindly and accepted the faith of the ancestors in weirwood trees after the war ended.
Yet this very ancient god now exudes utter darkness, staring directly at his opponent as if gazing into an abyss, profound and unfathomable.
If the total amount of the cursed power that entangles Viserys like horsehair worms is one...
So the curse on R'hllor, the Lord of Light, who just had the curse erupt, is ten.
In Viserys's view, the Old Gods were even more terrifying beings, their curses being ten times greater than those of the Red God.
"What, it's an ancient god of the North?"
Her father's words made both Heros and Diana widen their eyes slightly.
Although both Heros and Diana were Valyrians, like their father.
However, since they had grown up in Westeros, they naturally had some special feelings for these traditional Westeros gods.
Such as the Seven Gods, the Drowning God, and the Old Gods of the North, etc...
However, their father had told them that the Seven Gods and the Drowned God had perished in the Great War of the Gods, while the Old Gods had survived. Her prophetic power provided great help in this battle.
But at this moment, Viserys revealed the identity of these dense black branches, which greatly surprised both gods.
Shouldn't the Old Gods be on our side?
"But it's clear that the Old Gods of today are no longer the Old Gods we knew..."
Viserys looked at the endless, intertwined black branches and leaves that rustled and howled like ghosts, and spoke with a grave expression.
"Do not..."
"He has always been the old god we know."
“He was infected with this ‘virus’ of the gods thousands, even tens of thousands of years ago.”
"But did he manage to control himself? Or has he already become a puppet controlled by the curse?"
Viserys' eyes shimmered with a pale purple light as he gripped the divine weapon Twilight, his enormous wings unfurling.
"No one could possibly last that long; it most likely succumbed to the ravages of time long ago, becoming a walking corpse controlled by a curse..."
wow——
At that moment, the countless black leaves shook violently once more, as if in response to Viserys's words.
"Isn't it supposed to cause someone to go insane and go mad after being controlled by a curse?"
The white-haired middle-aged woman glanced at the Thousand-Faced God and then asked.
"Or there might be something even more terrifying—"
Meanwhile, Kramdi, upon hearing Diana's words, had long since lost the relaxed expression on his face. He shrugged and spoke, his words causing unease to rise on the faces of the gods.
"That's why he calls this curse a 'virus'."
However, just as the gods were hesitating, a sudden and dramatic change occurred in the mortal world below.
A colossal weirwood tree emerged from the depths of the Trembling Sea, east of Westeros, southwest of Essos, and directly north of the Narrow Sea.
This giant weirwood tree was entirely black, exuding an eerie and chilling aura, much like the branches the gods had seen in the divine realm.
wow-
The black branches swayed, parting the icy seawater and creating a towering tsunami, yet it continued to climb upwards, eventually standing like a pillar supporting the sky at the edge of the world.
However, when the giant weir tree stopped emerging from the sea, its branches began to stir, growing and spreading rapidly in all directions.
boom--
These rapidly growing and spreading branches spread in all directions, and then took root at each destination, from which countless more black branches sprouted and spread in all directions.
Controlling the powerful and controlling the tyrants. And if one could look down from the sky, one could see that, centered on the giant black weirwood tree in the Trembling Sea, the entire world was rapidly being enveloped by these black branches…
Chapter 1134 World Disaster
The dramatic changes that occurred in the mortal world could not be kept secret from the gods in heaven.
The entire divine realm was now quieter than ever before, completely empty, with only the gods present and no one else.
"It's troublesome."
Viserys, a young god who had risen to power less than a hundred years ago, unexpectedly became the leader of the divine realm at this time, shouldering the mission of saving the gods and the entire world.
The main reason for this result is that there is really no one left in the world of gods.
Although Diana and Heros each wield the power of ice and fire, one originates from beyond the heavens and the other from the earth's source.
However, although they possess immense power when united, they are still essentially rookies when fighting alone.
Like the Old Gods, 'Calamity' Kramdy has no substantial means of attack, only a special possession ability.
However, he has been in Azor Ahai's body for so many years without successfully possessing it, which suggests that this ability also has many limitations.
As for the Thousand-Faced God who is currently under his control, he is indeed quite powerful, but he is not as powerful as the Drowned God and the Black Goat God, who have been gods for thousands or tens of thousands of years.
In fact, the Many-Faced God, like Viserys, is a newly emerging deity. Although her birth predates that of Braavos, it is only about a thousand years old.
Due to a series of coincidences, Viserys shouldered the responsibility of restoring the Valyrian gods, absorbed the power of the Black Stone from outer space, and even the divine power of the Old Gods, as well as the strong faith support provided by a vast empire spanning two continents in the mortal world.
Therefore, Viserys ultimately managed to overtake others by taking a shortcut. With these opportunities and the world he had built himself, the divine body he created was in no way inferior to the old gods like the Drowned God, and was second only to the Seven Gods.
