Greece brings evildoers

After receiving the message, Lorne woke up Eden, who was dazed in bed, and took Holo to the dwarf palace.

Entering the hall, the three of them found Odin, dressed in black casual clothes and a wide-brimmed hat, sitting in the hall, drinking ale with the old dwarf king Evald, chatting and laughing, like a pair who had not seen each other for many years. Old friend.

When he saw the three people entering the door, Odin immediately stood up and greeted them with a big smile:

"Loki, my brother, you are here, sit down quickly!"

Lorne hugged Odin politely and enthusiastically, and then took Holo and Iden, who were invited to sit down.

He glanced at the seven or eight empty wine jars on the table, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes:

"I remember you only drank mead before."

"I didn't expect that the ale brewed in the atrium also has a unique flavor!"

Odin Lang answered with a smile, raised his hand to pick up the full wine glass, and drank all the ale in the glass, a cheerful smile appeared on his old face.

Holo on the side saw this and said with a smile:

"If Your Majesty likes it, I will ask the Chamber of Commerce to give you some of the best ones on a regular basis."

"Then it's settled!"

Odin agreed decisively, then looked at Holo and said with some displeasure,

"But, little Holo, it's too unreasonable for you to call me Your Majesty. When you were just born, I personally hugged you. If Loki hadn't beaten you to it, maybe you She has become my daughter a long time ago.”

As he said this, the Asa God King did not forget to glare at his good brother, quite unhappy.

Lorne took a sip of ale quite proudly and said:

"That's because I am liked by children, unlike you who keeps an old face all day long. Children are frightened and cry when they see you."

Whether it is Dionysus, the god of wine in Greek mythology, or Loki, the god of fire in Nordic mythology, they are all handsome men with outstanding appearance in the records. Odin is much inferior in this respect. Not only is his face covered with wrinkles, but he is also blind in one eye. In terms of appearance and attractiveness, he is indeed inferior to others.

Holo glanced at the faces of the old and the young, and couldn't help but secretly nod in agreement. She was extremely glad that she chose to judge people by their appearance when she was a child.

It's not because she has too high requirements for her adoptive father's appearance, but because the risk factor of being the daughter of old man Odin is a bit high.

She had not forgotten that the last one named Hela was still squatting in Helheim.

"If I were you, I wouldn't care about anything or worry about anything. I guarantee that I'll take better care of myself than you do!"

Odin rubbed his wrinkled old face and retorted angrily.

Immediately, in a pleasant atmosphere, he looked at Eden who was sitting down, a gentle smile appeared on his old face, and he took the initiative to explain his purpose:

"Eden, right? I'm sorry about your brother's matter. It was my poor discipline that allowed those bastards to commit such crimes. Well, as compensation, I will give you the [Ten Thousand Years Garden] to act as your agent. , From now on, you will be Asa’s goddess of youth, responsible for guarding the World Tree and nourishing the fruits of youth.”

Hearing Odin's promise, Holo's face was filled with astonishment.

The World Tree is the root of all things, and its importance to the nine kingdoms is self-evident; and the Fruit of Youth has the miraculous effect of keeping the gods of Asgard eternally young, which is for the Nordic gods who can age and die. , is equally important.

Leaving these two things to Iden is equivalent to handing over half the lifeblood of the Asgardian gods to outsiders.

Is old man Odin crazy?

When he learned about the "compensation" his daughter was about to receive, the old dwarf king couldn't help but feel a little frightened, and quickly declined politely:

"Your Majesty, no! This responsibility is too heavy. Eden is still young..."

"She is young and needs experience. Moreover, this girl Eden is very careful. I believe she is qualified for this job."

Lorne smiled and interrupted the old dwarf king's refusal, and took the initiative to take over the job for Iden.

Neither the old dwarf king nor the dead dwarf prince had such a big face that Odin voluntarily gave up the attack and gave away half of Asgard's lifeblood as compensation.

There is no doubt that this blood alliance brother is willing to make such a big concession for his sake.

Moreover, [Ten Thousand Years Garden] was once an area under his jurisdiction, and giving it to Iden was equivalent to giving it back to him in disguise. Odin couldn't say how distressed he was.

However, this is enough to prove Odin's sincerity in this trip.

Presumably from now on, he will not cause another [Dragon Disaster] and take the initiative to suppress the dwarves.

At this time, Odin couldn't help laughing when he heard Lorne's answer:

"Since even you, the previous manager, said this, I feel more at ease. If this child doesn't understand anything in the future, he can ask you for help."

"It's better to ask Frigga more. When it comes to caring for flowers and plants, the Warner Clan is better than me." Lorne shook his head and declined.

Odin heard the implication and frowned slightly:

"What? You're not going back?"

"As commissioned by someone, I am going to the underworld for a trip."

Lorne pretended to be helpless and pointed at Eden beside him, then changed the subject and looked at his good brother faintly,

"By the way, it seems you haven't visited Hela for a long time, right? Why don't you go shopping with me?"

When Odin heard this, his old face twitched and his eyes became weak:

"Forget it. I'm afraid she doesn't want to see me."

It's not because you always cheat your daughter, Lorne secretly cursed.

You sold Hela once in order to form an alliance with the Vanir. Now, in this dwarf dragon disaster, you are throwing dirty water on the giants and the underworld in order to clear the suspicion of the Aesir. It would be strange if Hela is happy to see you.

Having said that, in order to trick Odin into boarding the ship and help him attract firepower, Loen still patted his chest and promised against his conscience:

"It doesn't matter, I will help you to intercede when the time comes!"

Odin shook his head and smiled bitterly:

"I'm afraid it's useless. I also disguised myself as a mortal and sneaked into the underworld before, wanting to see the situation, but before I entered Hela's bedroom, I was chased by a large number of underworld undead. Even the black dragon king Nidhogg was dispatched for this. I finally got out of the underworld.

If I just accompany you on an adventure, it's okay, but if the conflict between our father and daughter attracts turmoil in the Nine Realms, it will be more than worth it."

Hearing Odin's frankness, Loen frowned.

Unexpectedly, the father-daughter relationship between Odin and Hela has almost deteriorated to the point of becoming enemies. If Odin is dragged in at this time, it may not be a shield to share the firepower, but an extra bottle of accelerant to add fuel to the fire.

But he himself felt uneasy to ask Hela for people.

Just when Loen was having a headache, Odin seemed to think of something, his eyes flashed, and he coughed dryly to remind him:

"Although I can't get away, there is someone who should be able to go to the underworld with you. His name is Thor, the second child of me and Jiaode, Hela's younger brother, with good divine power and strong physique."

When Loen heard it, he immediately understood.

The old man Odin is using the traditional art of selling his sons and daughters again. The sentence above can be translated into human language as follows:

My son Thor is young and healthy, durable, and Hela's younger brother. It's just right to relieve the fire. You take him to the underworld, it's good!

After weighing the pros and cons, Loen decisively agreed to the candidate recommended by Odin:

"That's good. I haven't met this nephew yet. It's just right to get close to him."

"Okay, I'll send someone to find him now!"

Having successfully diverted the trouble, Odin felt relieved and waved to the door.

A Valkyrie with long white hair, swan feathers on her head, silver light armor, tall stature, and a temperament as cold as ice and snow walked into the hall, raised her right hand to touch her plump chest, and bowed to Odin:

"Father, what do you want?"

"Brunhildr, go and call Thor, I need him to do something."

Odin spoke loudly and waved to his daughter.

It was her?

Loen looked at the silver-haired Valkyrie standing in the hall, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Brunhildr, the daughter of Odin and a mortal, the queen of Iceland, has the blood of a demigod and a half-human. The meaning of her name is "armor and battle".

She is beautiful and elegant. Because of her noble birth and strong talent, she was selected into the Valkyrie Corps. She often wears armor and holds weapons, gallops on the battlefield, and is brave and good at fighting. She is one of the most famous Valkyries in Norse mythology.

But in the original trajectory of her fate, she also has a strong tragic color.

Because she felt pity for mortals, Brunhilde, a Valkyrie, rescued a mother and son who were hunted by enemies without authorization, which angered Odin who was plotting behind the scenes.

Therefore, she was sealed into a burning cave by Odin and forced to fall into a deep sleep.

Later, the dragon-slaying hero Sigurd accidentally entered the cave, woke her up, and fell in love with her.

But after Sigurd left, he forgot his oath because he drank the amnesia potion, and instead gave the ring representing the marriage contract to the king he served and married the king's sister. Brunhilde, who was teased by fate, had to obey her oath and marry the king.

However, Brunhilde did not accept it. After learning the truth, she killed Sigurd who had let her down, and then committed suicide with Sigurd's sword, defending her loyalty and pride with her life.

To be fair, Lorne liked this kind of character very much. If it was a critical moment, he would not mind helping this Valkyrie.

A moment later, Brunhilde returned from Asgard, but there was nothing behind her:

"Father, Lord Thor is not in Asgard."

"What?"

Odin heard this, his face darkened, and he asked coldly,

"Where did he go to fool around again?"

"According to Lord Heimdall, he seems to have gone to Jotunheim."

No mistake, one post, one content, one book, one forum, one 6, one 9, one book, one forum!

"What is he doing there?"

"The Frost Giants recently selected a new king, and he said he wanted to test the other party's quality."

Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Brunhilde could only tell the truth.

Odin was furious when he heard this, and smashed the wine glass in his hand to the ground:

"This bastard, he only knows how to cause trouble for me all day long!"

Although the Aesir has the strongest overall strength, it is not invincible, and the prophesied Son of Light has not yet been born, so for so many years, he has been working hard to maintain the balance of all parties and try his best to avoid large-scale wars.

However, his good son Thor relied on his identity as an Aesir and the power of the God of Thunder to stir up trouble everywhere and repeatedly set up enemies for the Aesir.

Especially this time, he wanted him to share his father's worries, but he actually ran to the Giant Kingdom to make trouble again.

While comforting the angry Odin, Lorne asked casually:

"The Frost Giants actually have a new king, what is his name."

"Laofey..."

"Puff!"

Lorne spit out a mouthful of wine, with a strange color in his eyes.

"Female?"

"No, it's a male."

Brunhild answered truthfully, and was equally respectful to Lorne in front of him.

Before following the Father God on the trip, she learned the other party's identity from the Father God, and knew that this was the supreme commander of the entire Valkyrie Legion.

At this moment, Lorne was slightly relieved after hearing the gender of the Frost Giant King.

Fortunately, it was a male, otherwise according to his self-description of his identity when he came to Northern Europe, he might have an extra "biological mother".

However, Frost Giant King Laufey? This name seems to be connected to a certain fragment of his memory. Could it be a variable caused by his memory?

Lorne muttered in his heart, and then asked:

"How long has Thor been gone?"

"It's been three days..."

Hearing Brunhild's answer, Odin frowned.

Although his son is arrogant, his strength is also real. There are not many people in the entire nine kingdoms who can beat him.

After three days, there was no news. His situation was probably not good.

After thinking for a while, Odin looked at his good brother:

"The passage between the Rainbow Bridge and the Underworld has been blocked. If you want to enter the Underworld, you have to pass through the Land of Giants and the Land of Mist. Why don't you go and see Thor's situation?"

"Without you, he may not listen to me."

"Don't worry, I'll let Brunhilde take my token and go with you."

"Okay, I'll try my best."

After thinking for a while, Lorne nodded in agreement.

On the one hand, it's on the way. The newly appointed Frost Giant King Laufey and two of the three goddesses of fate seem to be in the Land of Giants. To be on the safe side, it's better to go and see if there is anything wrong.

Seeing his good brother agreed, Odin felt relieved, and handed over the certificate with a smile:

"No matter what happens on the road, you can handle it for me. If you meet that brat Thor, beat him up for me!"

"Forget it, you should keep your son to yourself."

Lorn also responded with a smile and a scolding, then hugged Odin briefly, and watched him lead the newly appointed goddess of youth Iden into the rainbow bridge.

"You go to the teleportation array and wait for me first. I have to discuss some things with Holo. After I'm done, I'll rush over to meet you." Brunhilde and the old dwarf king in the hall heard the instructions and left first.

Seeing the outsiders disappear from sight, Holo, who had been watching the whole process, finally couldn't hold back and looked at her adoptive father with a strange look:

"Dad, you kidnapped the two daughters-in-law of old man Odin and ruined all his plans. Not only did he not get angry, he even smiled and gave away half of Asgard's lifeline to ask you to go back..."

"What, is there a problem?"

"Tell me the truth, are you having an affair?"

"Bang!"

Lorne punched Holo into the floor tile and roared with a dark face,

"Fuck you! That's because I am more useful than his sons. If the Aesir wants to reach its peak, Can't live without me! At least, before the birth of Balder, the God of Light, he would not and dare not attack me! "

"I understand."

Holo pulled her head out of the floor tiles and punched her palm with sudden realization,

"You are his queen of gods!"

Looking at the ridicule and deeper depression on Holo's face, Lorne narrowed his eyes:

"We didn't fight, are you disappointed?"

"No way? We are so happy that the matter can be resolved peacefully."

"Then why are you running?"

"It's stuffy in the room, let's go out for some fresh air."

Holo retreated with a smile on her face, while raising her hand to touch the door handle.

However, no matter how hard she tried, the door did not move at all, and the feeling of confinement like a seal turned the entire hall into a cage.

"Do you know why I want to leave you alone?" Lorne asked with a smile.

"Discuss business?" Holo's voice was a little weak.

"No." Lorne shook his head, cracked his finger bones, and showed a sinister smile on his face, "My hands are itching."

Holo shuddered and rushed to the roof.

But the next moment, a crisp sound and a sad whine resounded throughout the hall.
