Chapter 929: everyone has faith

Latest website: R'hllor's beliefs spread so widely, almost all over the world.

"The road ahead is difficult and dangerous, and the road is long and difficult."

Therefore, Daenerys's mission this time is extremely arduous, and she has an important mission on her shoulders. She even abandoned her child in King's Landing, and there is no way to fulfill the responsibility of a mother.

In the middle of Aegon 307, it was a turbulent year.

After the long night passed, the Valyrian Empire launched its first war with the outside world. They conquered Volantis, the largest remaining city-state among the free trade city-states, in a destructive manner.

The once glorious nine free trade city-states are the centers of human civilization and economy, and the core of the circulation of goods, but who would have thought that the glorious trading city-states would begin to decline at a terrible speed in the short span of two decades.

Braavos, the eldest brother of the trading city-state, was reduced to ruins in the war between humans and the White Walkers, and Loras and Kohor shared the same fate.

And Pantos and his three daughters, the kingdoms of Rhys, Myr, and Tyrosh, have all been annexed by the huge empire rising in the west and have become part of the empire's territory.

Therefore, only Volantis and Novos were left to support the nine great free trade city-states that were once brilliant.

However, everyone knows the story that happened later. For some reason, the Red God Cult planned to assassinate the little prince Aemon of the empire, which aroused the anger of the three queens of the empire, Daenerys.

And people thought that the empire launched a war to attack Volantis this time, just to vent the anger of the little queen whose child was assassinated.

But what everyone did not expect was that after the imperial army spent half a month conquering Volantis, it did not stop its pace, but established a very clear goal.

They declared a series of Essos gods headed by 'Red God' R'hllor and their church as 'evil gods' and 'sinful religions'.

Therefore, the Valyrian Empire army adhered to the principle of 'man conquers the sky', launched an attack on these 'evil gods' and 'sinful religions', and began to continue to advance towards the depths of Essos, cleaning up everything they could see. Everything related to these evil gods.

"Man conquers the sky" is actually just a brief generalization. I don't know when this idea began to spread from the Targaryen army system.

Perhaps it was after the end of the first war between humans and the White Walkers that the White Walkers swept across the Seven Kingdoms. Under the leadership of King Robert, although the humans made stubborn resistance, they lost in a row, and were finally forced to retreat to the south of the neck. At the same time, he also sought help from Viserys, the 'Lord of the Young Dragon' rising across the narrow sea.

And it was this request for help that finally changed the fate of the people of the Seven Kingdoms.

Viserys led the Golden Company and the Dothraki across the narrow sea to Westeros and the army of the Seven Kingdoms to form a coalition, and finally defeated the White Walkers tenaciously and won the first war between humans and the White Walkers. .

In this war, people had experienced despair, and they prayed devoutly, hoping that the gods in the sky could confer holy grace and save the fate of the believers.

However, it is a pity that the gods in the sky are indifferent and cannot see the suffering of the world, and they ignore it all.

In the end, the White Walkers could only be defeated by the stubborn resistance of humans themselves.

So from then on, such an idea has spread among the Targaryen armies.

That is, although the strength of mortals is small, they can also save their own destiny. The gods have no way and cannot see the suffering of the world. People can only rely on their own strength to save themselves.

"Everyone has faith."

So in this case, why do we still believe in the gods in the sky and hold them on a high altar? Why don't we believe in ourselves?

A soldier who fought valiantly to kill ghouls on the battlefield, a bachelor who rescued the wounded, a lord who opened the granary and benevolent, etc... Every ordinary and great ordinary person is worthy of belief, there is no need to believe in those that are useless at all of the gods.

And among these people, Viserys, their king, who defeated the Night King to save the fate of all mankind, naturally also included.

It was under this circumstance that Viserys unintentionally ignited the fire of his belief, a small, weak flame, but now this small flame has grown into a blazing fire.

"Save yourself!"

"Relentless self-improvement!"

The thoughts and emotions that spread among the Imperial Army began to skyrocket during the most difficult and difficult times of the long night.

For at that time, even the most faithful of believers lost faith in the gods of the sky, and faith began to falter, and then came to an end in the long night, when the battle of Kohor was victorious.

And this kind of thinking is somewhat similar to a sentence widely circulated in the Essos continent, 'All mortals are mortal, and all mortals need to be served'.

The God of a Thousand Faces was once trapped in the mines of Valyria and witnessed the torture and death of slaves. They were captured from all over the world and prayed to various gods in various languages. But no response was received, and in the end they all died with regret.

Therefore, the God of a Thousand Faces was also the first faceless man to realize the true meaning of the gods at this time.

This sentence was later widely circulated in the continent of Essos, "Everyone is mortal, and everyone needs to serve." ' It started to spread from then on.

But now it has become 'everyone has faith, everyone is mortal, and everyone needs to serve. ’

Therefore, this kind of thinking is not actually the first to spread from the Targaryen army in the strict sense, but a kind of belief that was born under the surface of the world by accident or necessity in the process of world history.

Of course, the belief of the people at the bottom has not been noticed by the gods high in the sky, and they are still busy participating in the infighting between the gods.

Humanity needs a leader.

But unfortunately, the God of Thousand Faces is only a top killer~www.NovelMTL.com~ has established a top killer organization in his entire life. He is the **** who answers the prayers of the believers most frequently, but it is still not enough to become the leader of mankind.

And Viserys came out at this time, took over the position of the God of Thousand Faces, and became the psychological sustenance of many mortals.

religious war.

So the imperial army, led by the little queen Daenerys, went on an expedition to the east, and after conquering Volantis, their goal became very clear.

They want to destroy all beliefs about 'evil gods'.

But destroying these evil **** beliefs is not to promote the Seven Gods of Westeros or the Drowned God, etc.

Instead, it is to spread and drive out these evil gods who are ignorant of human life and ignore human life from the surface of the earth, and cut off all connections between them and the mortal world.

They proclaimed to the world that mortals could also control their own destiny.
