Chapter 634 Fire of Faith
"You are from Targaryen."
Merasis was silent for a while, and seemed to organize the language before speaking.
"I'm not Merasis."
Viserys frowned slightly at the woman's words.
She said she was Merasis for a while, and then she said no, what the hell was going on?
"I'm just a little bit of her sadness."
"I don't know if she is alive or dead now."
However, the other party also happily explained.
It turned out that at the time of the doomsday natural disaster, the Valyrian continent was torn apart, volcanic eruptions, floods, earthquakes, fire and rain from the sky, thick smoke enveloped the entire continent, and Valyrian cities also turned into ruins, and people died. Even the dragon and the noble descendants of the royal dragon family could not escape the nightmare.
They took the dragon and tried to escape, but none of them were able to succeed. The continent seemed to be cursed by the gods. Except for the Targaryen family on Dragonstone Island, all the other noble dragon families perished. .
And the gods of Valyria, Balerion, the god of death, Vaghar, the lord of lava and fire, Terex, the sun god, and Merasis, the lord of the ocean, all have no news.
No Valyrian gods came forward to save the whole world, and finally watched the entire continent fall and became a "demon land" cursed by the gods.
And the woman in the Merasis statue in front of her is a remnant of Merasis, the lord of the ocean's raging waves.
She feeds on people's beliefs, and the power of belief is also one of the main sources of power to maintain the gods.
Every ancient god statue or sustenance has the god's residual thoughts. These residual thoughts are used to help the gods gather the power of faith and respond to the prayers of their own believers.
Unless the ancient god himself has died, with the passage of time, these residual thoughts will all dissipate, and the prayers of the believers will also lose their effect and gradually disappear from this world.
When Doomsday collapsed, she sensed that in Valyria's magnificent ancient temple, the statues of Merasis collapsed, and the goddess remnants attached to them were obliterated.
The remnant in front of him was because he was too weak, luckily he was not shattered by the terrifying force that enveloped the entire continent, so he escaped the catastrophe.
Then, in order to protect himself, this remnant of Merasis tried to prolong his life and fell asleep until Viserys woke up again.
But now, she can't sense any homologous aura from this world.
She couldn't sense the body of Merasis, Lord of the Ocean and Raging Waves, and she couldn't sense the residual thoughts of the rest of Merasis. She seemed to be the only existence.
"Is that so?"
And Viserys listened to what Merasis said, and his eyes showed surprise. Everything about the ruins of Valyria seemed to be covered with a thick fog, just like the sea of smoke covering the ruins. However, this remnant of Merasis was the witness and survivor of the apocalypse that year, and all the truth popped out of her mouth as simple as running water.
Many of Viserys' previous doubts were instantly resolved, but the more he knew, the more puzzled he followed.
The more he listened to what Merasis said, and the dragon dream he had done before, the more and more he felt that the Doomsday Calamity of Valyria was not a natural disaster, but a 'man-made disaster'.
Who was it that attacked the great human empire of Valyria?
According to Merasis, Valyria has many ancient gods, each of which is powerful, who can easily limit or even kill them, making them powerless to save the collapse of the empire?
"Who is Valyria's enemy?"
However, Viserys couldn't help but bring up the doubts in his heart, but unfortunately, Merasis's remnants couldn't give the answer.
She was just a remnant of the idol stored in the temple of the small castle, not Merasis himself, and she did not know who Valyria's enemy was, who suppressed or killed Merasis.
And Viserys also knew that he was a little too hasty when he heard the words, and it was indeed too embarrassing to expect the other party to explain the biggest secrets of this world with a remnant.
But Viserys was not discouraged. He knew the fate between himself and the ruins of Valyria, and sooner or later he would rediscover this mysterious lost continent.
Therefore, he made a request to Merasis's remnant, hoping that the other party could help answer some questions, and Merasis's remnant readily agreed, after all, she still has to rely on the flames in Viserys' body to 'Viserys' pregnancy'.
Losing this golden flame, she must choose to fall asleep again in order to survive for a longer time, but it will be even more difficult to get the chance to be awakened this time.
After all, lighting this golden flame is something that few people have been able to do for thousands of years.
However, Merasis' remnants also told Viserys in advance, and she didn't know much. If she could answer, she would definitely try to help, but she needed the golden flame in Viserys' body to help her maintain her life. '.
And Viserys naturally nodded in agreement.
"Then what shall I call you from now on?"
Viserys' question made Merasis's remnants silent for a moment, and then spoke a little sadly.
"Just call me Merasis."
"I am the only one in the whole world who has her remnants, and I am Merasis."
"it is good."
Viserys nodded slightly, then changed the conversation, thinking of the request that Merasis had just made, and wanted to use the golden flame in his body to continue his life.
In fact, it was precisely in order to understand the flame that he chose to take the risk to carry out this experiment. He did not expect to wake up the remnants of a Merasis from a faceless statue.
"Melassis, what is the golden flame in my body?"
Now that the cooperation between the two sides has begun, Viserys also asked generously.
"The fire of faith."
And Merasis really fulfilled the obligation of cooperation, and explained without any hesitation.
"You have won the faith of your people, which is the foundation of the road to becoming a god, and it is also the first step."
"There are many gods, big and small, in this world. Most of them are the leaders of a nation or a country, or some kind of spiritual sustenance. As long as you have faith, you can produce characteristics."
This is the same as Viserys guessed not long ago about the mysterious qualities inside the statue and the skull of the white raven, except that Viserys named it Divinity and Merasis called it Faith.
