Chapter 546: The Church Collapsed

"Hoo"

The dragon's figure hovered in the sky, and its roar spread far away.

I don't know why Balerion suddenly gave up on targeting ordinary soldiers of the Hightower family, and instead focused on the very conspicuous black building standing in the old town.

The Starry Cathedral is the largest church in Old Town. It has been the headquarters of the Church of the Seven Gods and the residence of the Archbishop for thousands of years before the War of Conquest.

Later, three hundred years ago, when Aegon first landed on the land of King's Landing, the then Archbishop locked himself in the Starry Cathedral and prayed for seven days and seven nights, listening to the teachings of the gods, and only ate some food during the period.

Bread and water.

Later, when he was released from confinement, the High Septon announced that the church would no longer resist Aegon and his sisters.

Because he predicted that if Oldtown one day raised an army to resist the Dragon King of the Targaryen family, dragon flames would burn the downtown, the academy, the towering tower, and the Starry Cathedral.

Back then, the Hightower family listened to the High Bishop's prophecy and retained the army, which opened the door for Aegon and brought peace.

Now three hundred years have passed, and the owners of the Tower have changed one after another. The current owner of the Tower, Earl Leyton Hightower, ignored the prophecy and chose to stand against Viserys.

At dusk, red clouds filled the sky, and Balerion's figure hovered over the old town and roared continuously, like an apocalyptic scene.

Rumble

Then the giant dragon swooped down and breathed dragon flames, and the dazzling crimson pillar of fire slammed into the dome of the Starry Temple, like a knife cutting through a soft cream cake.

"Hoo"

The Black Death launched an attack on the Starry Temple, and the fragile dome was unable to resist. It shattered instantly, dust flew, and then collapsed suddenly.

"Run away!"

"Help!"

"help me!"

The monks and nuns inside the Starry Cathedral fled in all directions. The brown-robed monks who used to stay in the church to meditate did not bother to meditate. The Silent Sisters lost their silence and shouted in panic.

boom

Then the giant dragon fell on this magnificent building, and the Prosperity Temple screamed under the raging dragon flames, and the pieces suddenly collapsed, injuring and killing an unknown number of monks and nuns.

Phew~

The raging dragon flames continued. Because of the continuous spitting, the temperature of the dragon flames was too high and even the color began to become slightly distorted.

The flames melted the black marble used to build the Starry Temple. The flames shattered the colorful glass and poured in through the gorgeous arched windows. More people were burned alive inside before they could run out.

, letting out a chilling scream.

"Ahhh!"

In a tower of the Starry Cathedral, several monks among them could not bear the pain of being burned by the fire. With flames burning on their backs, they jumped off a towering tower.

They wanted to jump into the river, but unfortunately the critical moment was short, and they fell directly from the sky like a sandbag and hit the river bank hard.

Snapped

It was smashed into pieces of rotten flesh.

Unable to endure the pain of being burned alive, several monks jumped from the tower and fell to their deaths. Then the tower of the Starry Temple gradually tilted, and then suddenly collapsed.

boom

The tower collapsed and the ground trembled slightly. It crashed into the river next to it, creating huge waves and overturning countless boats that were trying to escape the old town in a hurry.

The sun sets in the west and the night gradually falls.

Rumble

The sky in the old town was completely illuminated by firelight. The dragon stretched its wings and continuously breathed out dragon flames around the starry temple. However, this magnificent giant temple was constantly being fragmented.

I don't know how many monks and nuns who were lucky enough to escape from the Starry Temple watched it wailing in the fire. They couldn't help but burst into tears. They knelt down in the blood and fire and kept kowtowing, hoping that the Seven Gods could send down the wrath of thunder to destroy them.

enemy.

However, they only saw the statues of the Seven Gods being melted, and then with a loud noise, the Starry Temple completely collapsed into the dragon flames. The huge roar spread far away, and the billowing dust and air waves continued to move towards the distance.

diffusion.

The Starry Cathedral completely collapsed, and the inner faith of these monks and nuns also collapsed.

Some people kowtowed and drew blood, some jumped into the river with a desperate roar, and some monks took off their brown robes, threw them away, and then quietly slipped away.

Under the apocalypse, all kinds of things happen frequently in the world

"Viserys is crazy!"

"Viserys is crazy!"

"What does this tyrant want to do?"

The Academy is located on the banks of the Mead River and consists of many islands. The towers and domes are connected by stone arch bridges. The Academy is huge and is the largest building complex in the old town.

At this moment, the city was in chaos, with bachelors and assistant bachelors scurrying around like headless flies, and countless people who had taken refuge poured into it.

Dr. Theobald, the Grand Steward of the Academy, was shocked and angry. He was anxiously walking back and forth in the Steward's Cabinet of the Academy, pacing back and forth.

He did not expect that the situation in the outside world was so bad. Viserys's black dragon actually attacked the Starry Temple.

What does this mean? Just thinking about it makes me shudder.

Viserys wants to change the world and is truly the 'Destroyer of Order'.

"This tyrant is crazy."

The City President gritted his teeth and felt that the roots of his teeth were itching.

The general manager of the school city changes every year. This year, Dr. Theobald won the lottery and became the general manager of the school city, but he never expected that this would turn out to be a hot potato.

In fact, ever since the Hightower family decided to intervene in the Seven Civil War, the Citadel has been prepared for war.

Because there are some bachelors in the city who love to delve into data and theory. They have deduced the results after the outbreak of the civil war and calculated various possibilities.

There is a 70% chance that the Targaryen army will win, only 10% will result in a stalemate between the two sides, and the remaining 20% ​​will be a victory for the noble coalition.

Therefore, the school city has long been prepared to deal with it, but it does not take it too seriously. After all, no one will attack the school city in all kinds of wars throughout the ages.

Until not long ago, the clouds of war finally shrouded the old town. Dr. Theobald, the general manager of the city, symbolically dismissed a group of bachelors, while some of the remaining ones had not had time to leave, and more expressed

Willing to live and die with the city.

But it all happened too fast, and when we almost arrived at the school city, we were caught off guard.

The defense war in Old Town started in the morning, and it fell by dusk. It didn't even last a day.

And when the Dothraki army and dragons arrived, the direction of the war was even more terrifying.
