Chapter 8: One swallows death, the other spits out new life
Naturally, no one objected to Viserys's suggestion. After leaving the office, everyone headed straight for the Temple of the Three Headed Gods.
The total population of Tyrosh is about 300,000.
Among them, there are more than 200,000 slaves.
Slaves with naked clothes can be seen everywhere on the road.
The lower-level slaves basically do some hard labor, such as trackers and miners.
There are more than 30,000 miners in the copper mine just west of Tyrosh.
The slightly better ones may be waiters, clerks, craftsmen or slaves.
Viserys knew that although it would be great to liberate the slaves all at once, he would inevitably fall into the predicament of the Dragon Mother.
But maybe he could take it slowly and gradually release their power!
Viserys walked and thought, and everyone soon came to the vicinity of the Temple of the Three Headed Gods.
Just now, because of the angle, they did not see the statue of the Three Headed God.
Now when they get closer, they find that the statue is quite tall.
The whole is bronze, and it is estimated to be about five or six meters high.
This so-called "Three Headed God" has three huge heads, which almost occupy three quarters of the entire statue!
From the perspective of structural mechanics, this is quite unreasonable.
But according to Meris, this statue has a history of thousands of years and may be made by magic!
"It is said that touching the toes of the three-headed god can bring luck."
Meris pointed to the toes of the three-headed god statue and said to everyone.
Looking in the direction of his finger, the toes of the statue seemed to be smoother than other places.
"Ha, then I don't need to touch it!"
Regis showed the scar on his neck to everyone in a very arrogant way.
These days, he always stretched his neck, as if his neck was stretched an inch longer.
"One swallows death, one spits out new life, and the other one is unknown."
Viserys looked at the three-headed statue and wanted to guess the purpose of the third head through some of his past life.
From death to rebirth, that is, resurrection.
If a body is only active, then wouldn't it be a vegetable?
It seems that having a body alone is not enough. Could it be that one body swallows death and one swallows the soul and spits out new life?
Although there are many guesses in his mind, they cannot be confirmed, so Viserys decided to go forward and try.
He walked to the statue and placed a hand on the statue's big toe.
Suddenly, blue words appeared in front of him:
[Touching Valyria's magic, skill 'Skinchanger' changes to 'Soullinker']
'Soullinker? ! '
'Magic equipment? ! '
Two unfamiliar words appeared in front of Viserys, and he quickly opened his panel.
Sure enough, the original 'Skinchanger' skill disappeared, replaced by 'Soullinker'.
——Soullinker
: -Normal (300/300)+
——It
seems that Soullinker is more advanced than Skinchanger. The Skinchanger skill, which was originally close to the expert level, has directly regressed to the normal level.
Viserys simply added a little proficiency to it, so that it broke through to the mastery level.
Suddenly, Viserys felt that an ocean appeared in front of him.
The surging waves were stacked under him, and he felt that he was flying, observing the earth from a bird's-eye view.
'No, it's not me flying, it's a seagull! '
Viserys realized that he could share the seagull's vision without invading his consciousness!
This means that he will always have one more pair of eyes than others!
The benefits of this are naturally self-evident.
He felt that as his soul linker skills continued to improve, he could even control animal companions without invading his consciousness.
If he could connect his soul with beasts in the future, wouldn't it be equivalent to being able to control two bodies at the same time?
'What beasts can I control? I can fight side by side with dragons! I am the dragon! '
In addition, at least now I seem to be able to try to connect with a second animal companion.
Considering that we will have to fight on land in the future, seagulls are not birds of prey. They don't fly high and may be shot down.
If we can connect with an eagle, even a vulture, it would be great.
The latter has a very long hovering time and can provide continuous battlefield vision for himself!
Moreover, both animals have good eyesight. Whether the enemy is slinking or running around in the barracks, they can't escape his eyes.
Realizing that the trip was worthwhile, Viserys looked at the statue in front of him happily.
The system prompt just now mentioned the words "Valyria's magic tool".
That means this thing is not a statue, but a tool related to magic. What
on earth do the Valyrians use this thing for?
As the Valyrians who control dragons and magic, they are all atheists.
They regard themselves as gods.
It makes sense that this thing is called a "magic tool".
Judging from the changes in my skills, the "Shapechanger" has become the "Soul Chainer", which shows that this thing is indeed related to the soul.
Maybe it is just as I guessed before, using a body and a soul to produce a new life.
Of course, it is also possible to be the other way around, that is, to peel the soul from a body!
For a while, Viserys became very interested in the ruins of Valyria.
But thinking of the countless people in history who had never returned, he temporarily put an end to this idea.
The dragon of Aegon the Conqueror, that is, the third dragon rider of Balerion, the "Black Death" - Aria Targaryen.
She once rode the Black Death to the ruins of Valyria, but ended up dying with the Black Death.
It is said that the Black Death left a hideous wound on his body and died not long after returning to King's Landing.
Aria fell into an incredibly high fever, and countless tiny worms even came out of her body!
Before her, a dragon king who called himself the "Emperor of Valyria" also led 30,000 troops to the ruins of Doom, but never returned.
Of course, it's not that no one has succeeded before, he is Euron Greyjoy.
Valyrian armor, dragon horn... and dragon eggs!
However, this born bad seed, just thinking about it makes people feel uncomfortable.
Viserys decided that it would not be too late to explore after he had a certain strength.
Or since they knew that Euron had successfully explored the Ruins of Doom, they could find a way to let him do it...
Putting aside the matter of the Ruins of Doom for the time being, Viserys and the others were going to look for any new animals that could be used to shapeshift or "link souls".
Dany had only transformed a skylark before, and this thing really had no fighting power.
So everyone came to a circus that was preparing for a performance.
Viserys immediately fell in love with a sub-adult golden eagle about one meter long.
Its body has not yet fully matured, but it has already shown the majesty and power of a bird of prey.
Its feathers are a mixture of dark brown and gold, and they sparkle with a metallic luster in the sun. Although its body is not as majestic as that of an adult golden eagle, its skinny figure reveals a wild beauty, as if every bone is full of strength and toughness.
As long as it is provided with enough meat, it will surely grow into its own helper soon!
