Chapter 976: Falling Dragon

Then, three years passed by in a hurry.

Yin Geng's calendar year is 322 years, and the new calendar year is 29 years.

The empire has been established for almost 30 years, and another batch of familiar faces has disappeared, but there are also more new life coming to this world vigorously.

The empire has gradually withdrawn from the quagmire of wars over the years, stopped wars launched around the world, and changed from an active offensive posture to a silent defensive posture, sticking to the occupied land.

And these newly conquered lands, the empire has ruled for more than ten years, subtly eliminated the estrangement of the local people, and gradually integrated into the system of the empire, becoming a part of the multi-ethnic and multi-cultural state system.

However, it is ridiculous that the Imperial Legion no longer frequently launched wars to encircle and suppress these religious believers and rebels hiding in the deep mountains and forests, but after they lost the common enemy over their heads, the contradictions accumulated over the years broke out and began to Kill each other.

There were even some people who had not surrendered after being beaten to death. Now they ran out of the mountains and surrendered to the empire. They led the imperial legion deep into the mountains and forests to copy their old lair.

Of course, some of these things are true and false, false and true, the experience of the Imperial Legion in suppressing the insurgents over the years, some are really infighting, surrendering and revenge, while others are setting a trap to trick the imperial army into entering Go to the deep mountains and old forests, and then destroy these imperial soldiers in one fell swoop.

But in general, the Valyrian Empire has gradually gotten out of the quagmire of this war since three years ago, and has transformed into a defensive posture, consolidating its own territory and no longer seeking initiative.

However, it was also in this year that several major events occurred one after another in King's Landing.

First of all, an unnamed fire ignited in the Starry Church in the old town, killing Yin Geng, the church archbishop who was participating in the ceremonial activities in the Starry Church at that time, and many archbishops from various regions.

The Sanctuary of the Stars was once again destroyed in this fire. This is the second time the ancient Sanctuary of the Stars has suffered a devastating blow in just a few decades.

Although Yin Geng has been the archbishop for decades since he was a boy, many people still haven't forgotten his identity as the prince of the Targaryen family.

However, the fire in the Fanxing Sanctuary did not know whether it was an accident or a natural disaster, but it actually burned Yin Geng to death.

There have been rumors that Yin Geng is not actually the flesh and blood of Prince Rhaegar, but a 'dragon of the actor' concocted by someone, but it has never been confirmed, but Yin Geng died in the fire, which may confirm this view. .

Because the true dragon blood of the Targaryen family is not afraid of flames, Viserys, Daenerys and many other Targaryen family members can confirm this.

However, there is also an opposite view on this, because there are many Targaryens who are not immune to fire in history, so not everyone has the blood of a real dragon, and Yin Geng may not be Prince Rhaegar's own flesh and blood.

However, the man has passed away and Yin Geng has been burned alive, this question may forever remain an unsolved mystery.

But this fire in the Sanctuary of Stars may have other meanings attached.

Because at the same time as this fire broke out, more or less fires broke out in the Seven Holy Churches all over the world.

"Have the Seven Gods fallen?"

When such news spreads, people in the world are all in shock, but because the Seven Gods rarely answer the prayers of believers, there is no way for people to confirm whether there is really something wrong with the Seven Gods.

"All the Seven Holy Churches were set on fire. Could it be that the Seven Gods died in the fire?"

"Fire? What fire can burn the gods in the sky?"

"If you talk about fire, is it..."

Having said that, everyone looked at each other in dismay, not daring to continue.

Because within the empire, the gods of Essos, such as R'hllor, have been identified as evil gods, and it is expressly forbidden to publicly talk about the names of these gods and their stories.

Therefore, many young people in their teens and twenties have not even heard the names of the gods of Essos, such as R'hllor, and even sneered at the traditional gods of Westeros such as the Seven Gods.

Because today's young people in the empire believe more in self-reliance rather than relying on the gods in the sky, their daily prayers are not as good as working hard, at least they can solve the problem of what to eat for the next meal.

And after all the churches of the Seven Gods in the empire ignited a fire at the same time, not long after that, another major event happened——

That is, a 'dragon corpse' fell from the sky.

...

The corpse of the giant dragon fell from the sky and fell directly into the mountains of the Dorne frontier.

The corpse of this giant dragon was huge, even bigger than all the active dragons in the world today combined.

The largest dragon in the Valyrian Empire today, the green dragon Rego, the mount of the second queen Renes Targaryen~www.NovelMTL.com~, looks like a baby in front of it.

It was more than a few hundred meters long, and the flowing dragon blood stained the earth. Even after it fell, it directly blocked the only passage for Dorne to enter the Reach, the Prince's Pass, which led to the most important land in Dorne and the empire. The upper channel is blocked.

And the corpse of a giant dragon fell from the sky, which naturally became the most shocking and explosive event in the Valyrian Empire recently, and even covered up the news of the fall of the Seven Gods.

Afterwards, the eldest prince Heros Targaryen, Queen Renis, and even the eldest princess Diana, who stayed in the far north, all rode on a giant dragon and flew to Dorne one after another to witness this dragon corpse falling from the sky.

However, although they all came to Dorne, they had no way to approach the corpse of this giant dragon.

Because of the thick black fog emitting from its whole body, it blocked the sky and the sun, directly swallowing up the surrounding light, and the sky for dozens of miles around the Prince's Pass was enveloped by this pervasive black fog.

Although this black fog is not poisonous, all the people who approach it have never come out again.

However, although no one has a way to approach, these Targaryens still have a sad news.

Because the mounts Rego and Viserion of the second queen Reness and the little queen Daenerys let out a whimper, and through the induction between the giant dragons, it can almost be confirmed that the giant dragon corpse shrouded in black mist is It was the black dragon Balerion who had been missing with Viserys for almost twenty years.

Is Balerion really dead?

Nobody knows.

Not even Balerion's two brothers, Rego and Viserion, could be identified.
