I weave my destiny in parallel time and space

"Hmm~"

The pain all over his body made Heilang cry out in pain.

When he opened his eyes again, the first thing that caught his eye was the roof of the mud house.

He stood up in a panic and found that the wounds on his body had been taken care of at some point and wrapped with white bandages.

He looked around. The room was not big, and could even be said to be very poor. It was basically made of earth and stone, and the land was uneven.

"you're awake?"

Cage was sitting on the stove in the corner of the room, stewing something, and said casually.

"Fortunately, although you have many injuries, they are not serious, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to save you.

You suddenly fell in front of me from the roof last night, covered in blood, which really shocked me. "

"Did you save me?" Heilang said.

"There seems to be no one else here." Cage said funny.

He lifted the pottery pot and poured it into the earthenware cup placed on the table on one side. Then he put the pot on the table, picked up the cup and walked towards Heilang, handing the cup to him.

"This is mulberry leaf tea, it can help you heal your wounds."

Hei Lang took the tea, blew on the hot air and took a sip. The strange smell made his expression become very distorted.

Cage laughed out loud, "It's really hard to get used to it at first. I know this from the East."

After a pause, he asked curiously, "Why did you suffer so many injuries? Were you robbed by robbers?"

"I was indeed robbed." Hei Lang's eyes flashed, "However, it was not the property that was robbed, but a key."

"Key?" Cage frowned slightly.

"A key that can unlock a mysterious treasure." Heilang said.

Cage was stunned. He seemed to have thought of something, and said with a strange expression, "Do you know the owner of a bar?"

Hei Lang frowned slightly and was a little confused, "What?"

"I went to a bar last night," Cage said, "but I didn't bring enough money for drinks. The boss asked me to find something for him, but he didn't say what he was looking for.

Just tell me that I will know later.

Who knew I would meet you as soon as I walked out of the tavern door.

You just happened to be out of something. "

Hei Lang's eyes opened wide. He seemed to have thought of something and asked quickly.

"What does he look like?"

"What he looked like." Cage recalled, "He was very handsome. To be honest, I would never call a man handsome, but he was really different, and probably even more so in the eyes of women.

He also has very soft, half-long white hair. It doesn't look like it was dyed. It should be its original color, which is very special.

Oh yes, he said his name was Char. "

Xia Ya has never told Hei Lang his name, and he looks different now than when he first met Hei Lang.

However, during the Headless Horseman incident, he had met several of Heilang's apprentices in their current form.

After those people returned, they would naturally relay what they saw and heard to Heilang.

Although Hei Lang had never seen the white-haired Char, he immediately guessed that the person was Char based on their reports.

Heilang looked at Cage and his eyes flashed, "Have you heard of the Treasure of the Nibelungs?"

Hearing this, Xia Ya, who had been watching all this, finally recalled in his mind what the so-called Burgundy was.

They also had another name in the past called "Nibelungen".

The treasures of the Nibelungs are derived from an ancient poem, the Nibelungenlied.

One of the more famous epic operas, The Ring of the Nibelungs, was adapted from this poem.

The treasure comes from a dwarf named Andvari, also known as a dwarf.

According to legend, in the Nibelungen where the Rhine River flows, there lived three Rhine fairies at the bottom of the Rhine. They guarded a rock at the bottom of the river day and night.

Because there is a piece of magic gold inlaid on that rock.

The Nibelung dwarf Andvali swam towards the Rhine Daughters behind the stones. He wanted to win the love of one of them.

However, Andvari's ugliness was ridiculed and despised by them.

He was very angry, but at this moment, he saw the magic gold shining above the huge rock.

Three Rhine fairies revealed to him the secret: "Whoever can make a ring out of these golds can rule the world, but he must give up love."

So Andvari cursed love and stole the gold. Together with his brother Mime, they used the gold to create a ring with supreme power and an invisible helmet.

But later, Loki killed Hreidmar's son, and Hredma was furious and demanded compensation from Loki.

Loki took Andvari's treasure by force in order to raise enough money.

Among the vast treasures of Andvary, the ring "Andvaranotte" made of Rhine gold is the most valuable.

Andvari, who had his treasure taken away, cursed whoever holds the ring to bring about infinite disasters.

In this way, Andvaranot and other treasures were delivered to Hreidma as a ransom, and Hreidma was later killed by her son Fafnir, who coveted the treasure.

A series of subsequent plots resulted in the deaths of heroes one after another because of the ring and the treasure attached to it. It is a representative item among the cursed items in Norse mythology.

According to rumors, the One Ring in The Lord of the Rings is based on this ring.

The dwarf Fafnir used the power of the ring to transform into a dragon to guard the treasure.

Therefore, people are shunned by this.

Siegfried - also known as Siegfried, a prince of the Netherlands, known for his immense strength, bravery and courage.

When he was young, Siegfried loved to travel and explore, and as a result, he gained a lot of wealth, including the Nibelungen treasure.

He beheaded Fafnir and bathed himself in the dragon's blood. However, while bathing, a Bodhi leaf floated to his back, so this area untouched by the dragon's blood became his only fatal spot.

Siegfried, who was bathed in dragon blood, also gained the ability to communicate with birds.

From the chirping of birds, he learned that the Burgundian princess Clinehild was beautiful, so he wanted to marry her.

At this time, Burgundy was being invaded, so King Gunter of Burgundy wanted Siegfried to help him repel the invaders.

In addition, we must help Gunter get Brynhildr. Siegfried then used the power of the ring and helmet to transform into Gunter and conquer the feisty Queen Brynhild of Iceland.

Later, Gunter married Queen Brynhild, and Siegfried also married Princess Crynhild.

However, on their wedding night, Brynhildr refused to consummate the marriage, so Siegfried once again transformed into Gunter and subdued Brynhildr, and also took away her belt and ring.

Many years later, due to a dispute between the two queens, Brynhildr learned the truth and became angry and sent her servant Hagen to take revenge.

So Hagen deceived Siegfried's vital parts and marked his clothes. While Siegfried was drinking water by the spring, Hagen stabbed Siegfried to death. , took away the Nibelung treasures and threw them into the Rhine.

Siegfried's wife Kleenhild was distraught and vowed to avenge her husband.

A few years later, the Hun envoy proposed to Krynhild on behalf of the king, and Krynhild agreed to marry far away for revenge.

A few years later, under the instigation of Crynhild, the war between the Huns and Burgundy was about to break out. Eventually, blood flowed into rivers and corpses were strewn across the fields. In the end, the war ended with Burgundy's defeat.

This poem is a heroic epic, so it has more elements of legend, but it also contains historical facts.

The Burgundians, also known as the Nibelungs, are an ethnic group living in the northwest peninsula of Europe.

Over time, around 200 BC, they gradually migrated to the Rhine area south of today's Mainz.

From 435 to 437, the Burgundians fought with the Huns. In the end, the Burgundians were defeated miserably, with almost no survivors.

However, there were still a small number of surviving Burgundians in this war. They fled to what is now Geneva and the mountains of southeastern France, where they settled, lived and multiplied.

In addition, in 453, King Attila of the Huns married a Germanic woman named Childe, and he died on the night of the wedding.

Therefore, most historians think that the reason why Hildic married the King of the Huns was for revenge. Moreover, this has many similarities with Crynhild’s marriage to the Hun king.

To be honest, if this were an online novel, the plot of giving away a daughter and remarrying the wife would be the most poisonous of all.

Many versions of the poem's story were adapted in Germany, and although they differed in detail, they were also very different.

For example, in the opera Ring of the Nibelung, Brünnhilde becomes a Valkyrie and is punished by Odin for disobeying Odin's will.

Odin thrust a thorn from the Sleeping Tree into her body, causing her to fall into a deep sleep until the bravest men in the world came to remove the sleeping branch and wake her up. And she must follow Odin's oracle to marry the person who awakened her.

The one who comes to wake her up is naturally Siegfried, but he is called another name in this story, Sigurd.

But he eventually died in the hands of Brynhildr, and it was still a bloody sadomasochistic plot.

And if that group of Nightmare Cult wanted to find the Nibelungen treasure, then they most likely coveted the ring with supreme power.

Although the power may not be as powerful as advertised, the ability to easily transform into a dragon is definitely a dimensionality reduction blow in this era.

There is indeed no such thing as a golden apple in this world, and Char has not manifested it.

But obviously, fate has made the things that this world already possesses have a connection with Heilang's fate.
