Chapter 14 Crusade
asgard,
Since Odin, Willy and the three brothers cut the throat of the ancestor Ymir and used the body of the ancestor giant as a sacrifice, they opened the door to the creation of the world.
Endless blood spurted out from the throat of the ancestor giant, turning into a shocking flood that submerged the entire void.
After the flood recedes,
An unimaginably huge world tree grew out of the remains of the ancestor Ymir.
This world tree named 'Yuktrasill' by the gods gave birth to nine worlds, namely Asgard, Vanaheim, Alfheim, Atrium, Watheim, and Hercules.
Elheim, Muspelheim, Jotunheim and Niflheim.
These nine worlds are divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower.
in
Located on the uppermost level, Asgard is the kingdom of the Asgard, located between the sun and the moon in the sky.
Next to Asgard are Vanaheim, where the Vanir tribe lives, and Alfheim, where the elves live.
And in the middle layer,
Located in the middle is the atrium where humans live.
To the south of the atrium is Muspelheim, a kingdom of fire that is filled with flames and contains only one fire giant Surtur. To the north of the atrium is a fog that seems to contain nothing.
The country of Niflheim, to the east of the atrium is the legendary kingdom of giants-Jotunheim, where the descendants of the ancestor Ymir live, the frost giants, and to the west of the atrium is Watt.
Heim is inhabited by dwarves who are good at making various tools.
The lowest level is the destination of all death, the legendary country of death, Helheim.
But don't look at it now that humans and gods are clearly divided. The major races, elves, dwarves, giants, and gods all live in their own worlds and 'live and work in peace and contentment' except for occasional contact.
But actually,
At the beginning of the birth of the nine worlds, except for the Kingdom of Fog, the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Death, the other six worlds were in endless chaos, with humans and gods living together.
In order to compete for the domination of the world and the sacrifice and worship of the human race.
The major races broke out wars with each other and fought against each other, bringing the war to every world and lasting for countless years.
It was not until the Aesir led by Odin pacified the six worlds, clarified the order, and divided each tribe into their own residences that the war that lasted for countless years came to an end.
And this has become Odin's greatest achievement and the greatest pride of the Asir clan.
Therefore,
He pacified the six worlds and became the true master of the nine realms. Everywhere he looked, except for those frost giants who felt that the world was formed by the corpse of their ancestor Ymir, they should be the masters of the nine realms.
In addition to being still unconvinced, other races all recognized their identity as masters of the Nine Realms. The Asa Clan began to enjoy a rare time of peace.
In Asgard, they built roads with silver, forged palaces with gold, and decorated their homes with flowers, white clouds, fountains, musical symbols, and fine wine.
Drinking and having fun at the banquet all day long, enjoying and reveling.
But today,
The gods gathered in Odin's Golden Palace rarely drank and had fun, but discussed matters with serious faces.
They are not discussing the 'sons of the deep',
It's his old enemy, the Frost Giant.
"Those Frost Giants that were nearly extinct by us last time have started to move again after thousands of years of rest."
Inside the majestic, sacred, solemn and glorious Golden Palace,
The gods, who were no less taller than the Frost Giants dozens of meters tall, were sitting on sacred chairs made of gold and decorated with gems, discussing the Frost Giants.
The one who spoke was Tyr, the god of war,
As the god of war and courage, the guarantor of contracts, the guardian of oaths and the representative of glory, Tyr, the god of war, is not the most powerful god among all gods, but he is the most sensitive to war.
When the gods are still immersed in the glory of the past and the enjoyment of today,
He has felt the pace of war approaching the gods.
therefore,
He asked Odin to summon the gods to discuss how to deal with it.
"Great Odin, why don't you just kill all the Frost Giants?"
Freya, the goddess of beauty, looked at Odin, the great god who was in the first place, and asked in confusion.
Don't look at the fact that she is sitting in Odin's golden palace at this moment, participating in the meeting of the gods of the Asa clan.
But actually,
She is not a member of the Aesir Protoss, but a member of the Warner Protoss who is not inferior to the Asa Protoss in terms of strength.
Because in the ancient times, the Warner Protoss and the Asa Protoss had a war. After the war, the two sides decided to make peace, so they sent each other's God of Quality' to their respective worlds, and the Warner Protoss sent to the Asa Protoss.
, it is her goddess of beauty Freya, her father and brother Njord, the god of sea, and Frey, the god of fertility.
Therefore, she did not understand why the Asa protoss wanted to indulge the Frost Giants.
Each time, they defeated the Frost Giants, but each time they stopped when they were about to completely kill the Frost Giants.
After the frost giants multiply again,
They come back again,
Sound the horn of charge to the gods,
and then was repulsed,
This cycle has happened several times,
Why can't we just eradicate the Frost Giants?
From what she saw, the power of the Asa Protoss could completely wipe out the Frost Giants.
Under His gaze, the great god Odin, who was sitting at the top, did not answer her questions. He was wearing a battle armor and a big golden crown. One eye was covered by a black eyepatch, while the other eye was lowered.
Gaze through the Golden Palace, through Asgard, and look at other worlds.
After a while,
He raised his eyes and looked at the door of the Golden Palace,
the next moment,
A huge figure appeared at the door, directly blocking the sunlight coming in from the outside.
The smell of blood emanated from Him,
Bright red blood dripped from his strong body,
Soon a large pool of blood sacrifice was formed at the entrance of the Golden Palace.
And in His right hand is an ugly-looking head with light blue skin.
Bang——
This huge figure, the God of Thunder, Thor, threw the head onto the long table of the Golden Palace. After making a vague rolling sound, the head happened to be facing the great god Odin everywhere.
"This guy is quite strong. It took me several minutes to unscrew his head."
Thor, God of Thunder, said to Odin casually.
This head,
It's the head of the Frost Giant King,
To take his head,
It took him several minutes to penetrate the defenses of the Frost Giants, and then it took several more minutes to twist off the head of this generation's Frost Giant King during the battle.
Seeing this scene,
The gods of the Æsir were fine. They just lamented that Thor went to Jotunheim so quickly and came back so quickly. Before the meeting here was over, the Frost Giants were eliminated over there, but Warner
Several gods from the Protoss clan clicked their tongues,
Although they know that Thor, the God of Thunder, is the most powerful god among the Asa clan, even the great god Odin may not be able to compare with him.
In the past battles, they also saw this man's bravery,
But in just a few minutes, he unscrewed the head of the Frost Giant King in the home of the Frost Giants.
this,
Isn't that a bit exaggerated?
"Right."
Thor, the god of thunder, suddenly looked at Vali, the god of vengeance among the gods, as the gods sighed and smacked their lips, "I heard that a big octopus appeared in the ocean in the atrium and killed your descendants. Do you want to
Shall I go down and avenge you?"
Hearing these words, Vali, the god of revenge, shook his head, "My other descendants will avenge him."
"That's good."
Thor nodded, strode towards his golden chair, sat down on it, and looked at the great god Odin, "Odin, is it time to celebrate?"
Hearing his words, Odin did not react, but the gods laughed, and Youshen waved his hand,
The beautiful elves immediately brought the wine and food and placed them in front of the gods.
But Thor, the God of Thunder, didn't care that he was covered in blood.
He picked up a huge wine glass that was two to three meters high and drank it all in one gulp.
The gods in the golden palace,
Partying again,
…
And while the gods were having a carnival,
On the mainland of the atrium,
A message was passed to the ears of witches through the mouths of countless elves, dwarves, and natural spirits, and then to the ears of a large number of Norse people.
Mond's younger brother, the demigod Raymond, whose body is filled with the blood of gods, wants to avenge his brother.
therefore,
He recruited warriors from all over the atrium to form a crusade army to crusade against the Son of the Deep Sea.
As long as the crusade is successful,
He promised to give everyone a weapon made by dwarves and a magical equipment made by elves.
As soon as this news came out,
The whole continent was shocked.
The weapons made by the dwarves are extremely precious treasures in the entire atrium and cannot be sold for ten gold, while the magic equipment made by the elves are even more valuable and cannot be exchanged for a thousand pieces of gold.
and,
The scale of this operation is so huge that it has caused a sensation in the entire human race. If I participate in it, I will immediately gain a lot of fame. And if I cut off the tentacles or heads of the Son of the Deep Sea during this crusade, I will immediately be able to gain a lot of fame.
He became the most famous mortal in the whole courtyard.
The two temptations of money and fame immediately made countless Northmen respond to the recruitment. Even because there were so many people responding to the recruitment, Raymond asked them to compete first, and only the winner could participate in the crusade.
for a time,
The mainland of Atrium is full of fights.
…
And just when humans were busy preparing for a crusade,
In the lightless deep sea,
Su Hao sighed,
"Food is getting harder and harder to catch."
ps: I checked a lot of information today, but I didn’t find the origin of the Vanir clan in Norse mythology. Is there any interested readers who can tell me.
