Chapter 242 The Aftermath of Natural Disaster

It has been more than a month since Linde suppressed Qohor with the power of gods. During this more than a month, the eyes and ears of various city-states and kingdoms in Qohor have used the fastest methods they can think of to report what happened that day. The matter was passed to the hands of their respective superiors.

Subsequently, all forces sent people to Kohol as quickly as possible to confirm the situation, because the top leaders of all parties did not believe the intelligence returned by the spies at all, because the scenes they described were completely beyond common sense, especially for Lin The description of virtue is no longer describing a person, but a real god.

However, after those who were sent out arrived in Kohol, they saw that there were still a large number of ruins in the city that had not been cleared, looked at the dilapidated scene inside the entire city, and heard various stories about that day from the local people. Narrating, they gathered all the information and sent it back to the top leaders of all parties. In the end, everyone had to admit the fact that Lind destroyed half of the city of Kohol with one person.

As a result, Lind's reputation once again spread in the Free Trade City, Slaver's Bay, and even the Yi Di. But this time, in addition to names such as the Chosen of the Seven Gods and the God of Storms, there was also a god of magic and natural disasters in the world. The title, especially the title of natural disaster, has the potential to replace other titles.

What’s interesting is that originally Melisandre thought that the faith of the Black Goat God had been frustrated, and many people would give up their faith in the Black Goat. The Red Temple could take the opportunity to capture these people, but in fact, the Red Temple not only failed to capture these people, On the contrary, many believers of R'hllor have also converted. The object of their conversion is not the Black Goat, but the new belief in the God of Scourge in Qohor.

Extreme fear coupled with extreme power will inevitably lead to extreme piety. Although the belief in the God of Natural Disasters has just appeared in Qohor, and the object of belief is still the enemy who just destroyed their city not long ago, everyone has seen it. When Linde appeared in the sky and was illuminated by the light, no one in the scene had any hatred towards Linde. On the contrary, after the belief in the God of Natural Disasters emerged, they all became believers in the God of Natural Disasters, and some of their relatives died among them. Linde's hands.

Without exception, these people are all fanatical believers. Under their promotion, the belief in the God of Natural Disasters has also expanded at an extremely rapid rate. In just one month, it has reached the level of the Black Goat Church and the Red Temple.

The chief priest of the faith of the god of natural disasters is named Malphas Pansion. He is the second son of the top powerful Pansion family in Qohor. His wife and children were swept away by the tornado and died in the city in the disaster caused by Lind. , but he did not hate Linde, but instead developed an extremely strong and devout belief in Linde. When he discovered that people in the Lower City began to develop belief in the God of Natural Disasters, he immediately joined in and used the power of his family to Expand the influence of the God of Natural Disasters, so the faith of the God of Natural Disasters can become the third largest faith in Qohor in a short period of time.

However, he was able to become the chief priest of the God of Natural Disasters not because of his devout beliefs. Among the believers of the God of Natural Disasters, there are many more pious people than him. He was able to become the chief priest because he used the religious knowledge he had learned to A code of natural disasters was compiled in a short period of time, giving the belief in the god of natural disasters a basis for preaching.

In this code, there are various descriptions of the divine rights of the gods of natural disasters. The most important one is that the souls of people who die from natural disasters will fall into the hands of the gods of natural disasters. To accept punishment for their sins, only by believing in the god of natural disasters and atone for the sins of their loved ones can they go to the realm of disasters after death, see their relatives who died in natural disasters again, and take their relatives away from the realm of disasters on ships formed by faith. Reaching the other side of bliss, living there forever and ever happily until the end of eternity.

After the compilation of the code was completed, Malphas Pansion handed over the missionary affairs to other priests. He took the compiled code and joined the team escorting the Soyd family to the continent of Westeros.

In Malfas's view, no matter how good the code he compiled is, it cannot be compared with the approval of the God of Natural Disasters, so he needs to meet with Linde, hand the code to Linde, and obtain Linde's blessing and appointment. , can truly become the chief priest of the faith of the God of Natural Disasters.

However, Malfas is not the only person who temporarily joined this team. There are also a large number of wizards, alchemists, dark warlocks, necromancers, cloud wizards, blood wizards and fire warlocks from the Mage Association who have also joined the team. , these people account for almost two-thirds of the members of the Qohor Mage Association, and it can almost be said that the entire Qohor Mage Association has been moved to the Summer Hall.

It’s no wonder that these members of the Mage Association are like this, because after seeing Lind’s power to control the weather, all those who advocate magic power regard Lind as the incarnation of magic, a prophet, and even the god of magic. .

Among these people, the belief in the God of Magic is also spreading. Although it does not spread as quickly as the God of Natural Disasters and has many believers, all people who believe in the God of Magic are devout believers, just like Malfas. They also collaborated to compile a code of the God of Magic. When compiling this code, Master Yunkong was the most active. Almost half of the content in the code was written by more than a dozen Master Yunkong, and the other half was also written by Master Yunkong. They revised it.

The reason why Master Yunkong was so positive was entirely because they saw in Linde the ultimate expression of the magic they mastered.

Although Qohor is so open to the power of magic, in fact, most places on the continent of Essos regard magic as an evil force and prohibit and restrict it.

However, Master Yunkong is an exception. Not only do various city-states have no restrictions on them, but even different faith sects do not classify them as taboos.

This is mainly because cloud mages have mastered the magic called air element. They can predict storms for ships, bring rain to arid lands, and purify turbid air. For example, there are foundries everywhere like Qohor. In this place, if Master Yunkong didn't purify the air for them, this place would probably be shrouded in all kinds of thick smoke all year round. It would be absolutely impossible for so many people to live in the city.

Because of this, Master Yunkong has a very special status in Qohor, but this time after they saw the power displayed by Linde, they still resolutely regarded Linde as a prophet and devoted themselves to the God of Magic. In their faith, their piety was almost that of a fanatic, and they immediately wrote letters to Master Yunkong from other city-states, asking them to go to Summer Hall and follow Linde together.

There are more than two thousand direct and collateral members of the Soyd family, as well as relatives, friends, hired workers, servants, etc., escorted by two thousand Unsullied people and a thousand mercenaries, plus several Hundreds of members of the Mage Association, more than a hundred believers of the God of Natural Disasters, and a large amount of property belonging to the Soyd family and compensation from Qohor formed such a huge escort team.

This huge escort team did not take the more convenient waterway, but took the Valyrian Road, bypassing Norvos, heading to Pentos, and then took a boat from Pentos to King's Landing, and then from King's Landing. Go to Summer Hall.

In the few days since this team set off, all the news related to this team has spread in the Free Trade City.

Everyone knows that this team carries astonishing wealth. Regardless of the thousands of years of accumulation of the Soyd family, just the batch of Valyrian steel that Kohol compensated Lind has not only It can only be described as priceless.

Although many people covet this wealth, no one dares to take action because they know very well that this wealth belongs to Linde, and if they touch Linde's things, they will bear Linde's anger. The entire Linde family has become a criminal, and no one wants to become the next Soyd family.

Not only does no one dare to touch this wealth, but even when this wealth passes through the area under their control, they will actively send people to participate in the escort, because they are deeply afraid that something will happen to these properties in their own area, and then they will be taken away by Linde. As the object of venting his anger, he became the second Kohol.

While the city-states of the entire Essos continent were discussing various matters related to Lind, Lind himself had already entered the Dorne Sea on the Miracle Merchant Guild's ship and sailed towards Miracle Port.

He and Marwen had followed the Rhoyne River to Volantis at the downstream outlet a month ago.

After arriving in Volantis, Lind did not announce his arrival or enter the city. Instead, he asked Marwen to enter the city with his token and find the Miracle Chamber of Commerce. The Miracle Chamber of Commerce would then send a ship to meet him. Meet at the open sea.

The reason why he did not enter the city was because he did not want to get involved in the internal political struggles of Volantis.

Through Marvin, he already knew that the Tiger Party and the Elephant Party in Volantis were now at war with each other. Some of the leading figures in the two parties had been assassinated by their opponents. The two sides were so tense that it seemed as if a civil war would start at any time.

However, Lind knew very well that Volantis would not be in danger of civil war for the time being, but only if he did not intervene. Once he appeared in Volantis, he would inevitably choose to take sides.

Elios Chiheda of the Tiger Party has a very good relationship with Linde. He is not only a senior member of the Miracle Chamber of Commerce, but also the only seller of the Seven Mysterious Medicines in Volantis.

But this does not mean that the relationship between the Xiang Party and Linde is very poor. In fact, compared to the fact that most of the Tiger Party's business is weapons business, the trade between the Xiang Party and Shengxia Hall is of various types. Many of them only have Essos. The specialties produced only in mainland China are all purchased through Xiangdang's Chamber of Commerce, so Xiangdang plays a very important role in the development of business and trade in Shengxia Hall.

Once Lind takes sides, the balance will be instantly broken, eventually leading to the outbreak of civil war. However, Lind also needs Volantis to attract some attention and cannot consume his combat power because of the civil war, so he chooses to bypass Volantis. He did not get involved in these political struggles.

On the ship, Linde looked through the various information sent yesterday. He was soon attracted by a piece of information from Braavos. The treasure trove of the Neptune Palace was stolen and the magic armor was lost.

From the beginning, when he saw this piece of information, Linde felt something was wrong.

Not to mention whether a tightly guarded treasure house with many mechanisms like the Neptune Palace Treasure House can be stolen. Even if someone gets rid of all the guards and mechanisms and enters the treasure house, it is logically impossible to steal the magic armor because it is out of control. The Frozen Dragon Rune can easily freeze anyone who touches it to death.

But Lind soon realized that he had taken it for granted. Indeed, if he directly lent the set of magic armor in Neptune's hand, he would freeze to death, but if anyone knew in advance about the Valyrian steel nameplate engraved with the frozen dragon rune, It is the source of the magic armor's power. If you take away the nameplate and put it in a closed box in advance, you should be able to steal the magic armor.

"I think you should take a look at this information." Just when Lind was thinking about who stole the magic armor, Marwin, who was assisting Lind in processing the information, handed a piece of information to Lind and said: "This information should be related to the theft of the Neptune Palace's treasure house."

Lind took the information and looked at it, frowning slightly. This information stated that Euron Greyjoy appeared in Braavos, and the time of appearance happened to be the time when the treasure trove of the Neptune Palace was stolen. , and when Euron Greyjoy left, there was a large sealed box next to him. Someone saw through the gap in the box that there was a crystal coffin inside.

"Crystal coffin?" Seeing this, Lind immediately realized what Marwen meant by being related. Obviously the crystal coffin that Euron took away should be the one in the treasure house of Neptune Palace that contained the untransformed White Walker. The crystal coffin of the corpse of an ancient civilization.

Linde once mentioned this matter to Marwin. Marwin also had a very in-depth study of ancient civilizations. He was very interested in the corpse of the ancient civilization race and the current situation of the ancient civilization race, and planned to find an opportunity to discover it. Lavos took a look north of the Great Wall, so when he saw the crystal coffin mentioned in the intelligence, he immediately made an association.

"Why did he steal the crystal coffin and magic armor?" Linde asked in confusion.

"Could it be that he wants to transform the White Walkers?" Marwin guessed casually.

Although Marwyn just made a casual guess and didn't think about it himself, Lind felt that maybe Euron Greyjoy really planned to transform the White Walkers. After all, Euron was so crazy that Common sense.

At this moment, Linde also felt a little regretful. He regretted why he didn't take away the set of magic armor and crystal coffin. No matter why Euron took those things, Linde felt that it was not a good thing.

After thinking about it, Linde quickly signed an order and then handed it to the captain, who asked him to use the ship's letter eagle to send out the order.

The content of the order is very simple, it is to order the Miracle Chamber of Commerce to pay close attention to the movements of Euron Greyjoy, and once his traces are discovered, he must be captured at all costs.

At this moment, Lind has raised Euron Greyjoy's danger level.

A few days later, when Lind returned to Port Miracle, there was news that the Braavos Sea King's fleet was pursuing Euron Greyjoy's ship in the waters near Skayne Island in the north. Rayjoy's ship ran aground and sank, and he was buried in the ocean.

Although the news definitely mentioned that Euron Greyjoy was dead, Lind did not believe it at all. In his opinion, Euron should still be alive. The so-called burial in the ocean was just a disguise. Now Euron It is very possible that he has gone beyond the Great Wall.
