Shadow of the Beautiful World

Asgard fell to the earth, which is equivalent to an extra piece of land the size of Australia appeared on the earth out of thin air.

It's a big deal, but its impact isn't going to explode right now.

Before the complete collapse of Asgard, a third of the land was transferred and migrated to the earth, but it does not mean that the matter on that land is over.

In fact, some things are just beginning.

In the original location of the starry sky in God's Domain, in the world that completely collapsed and formed a gravel belt, fragments from the collapse of the entire continent were everywhere, but there were still some large pieces.

Shattered lands the size of small cities, all gathered in the shattered center of the Earth's core.

There is still a small part of the land that is not completely fragmented, which is about one-tenth the size of Asgard.

It is suspended in the stars, like the center of gravity of the gravel belt, still exuding a weak gravitational force, restraining the gravel rolling towards the stars.

hum

Merlin in the quantum state appeared on a gravel.

He is intact.

It's just that his face is a little pale.

The Quantum State spell, which can be exempted from all physical attacks, is really a magic skill.

At the moment when the continent was broken, he escaped into the phase.

But from the current point of view, the impact that the quantum state can be exempted from is not unlimited. The impact energy impact of the Earth's core burst caused the magic power in his body to boil a bit.

But it doesn't matter too much, just rest for a while.

And his state at this time is definitely much better than the little Hila in his hand.

Because most of the Asgard continent was destroyed, poor Hela's godhead suffered an indescribable impact, and this cute-looking little girl was sluggish at this moment.

It was like after binge eating and drinking, and then thrown into the drum washing machine to shake wildly, vomiting out everything in the stomach.

Merlin held her by the collar like a cat.

The poor green-clothed girl drooped her limbs limply, and twitched nervously from time to time, as if she was dead.

But she was alive and breathing, just very, very faintly.

You have become like this, presumably the state of my dear Big Snake will only get worse at this time.

Merlin looked out, looking at the strange scenery after the collapse of the world, and at the lights that shrouded the ruins of Asgard. Those colorful lights were floating among the stars like the aurora.

That is the magic power released after the collapse of the Rainbow Bridge. It is very beautiful and gorgeous.

Who would have thought that this would be the scene when the world collapsed?

You guys are crazy.

Hela, who was caught in her hand, said in a weak but terrifying voice:

What do you gain by destroying Asgard?

No good.

Merlin carried Hela and stepped forward. In the quantum state, he walked in phases, like a ghost, jumping back and forth among the tens of thousands of broken rubble belts.

He searches for living creatures.

As he walked, he said to the weak Hella:

But there is no harm. And for the word benefit, you can understand it this way: the benefit does not necessarily mean that you get something, but it can also mean that your opponent does not get something, do you understand?

I don't want to understand!

Hela struggled, the little girl screamed and said:

You are crazy! That woman Frigga is also crazy! This world is over, my throne, my future, this is the end. I hate you! I will kill you!

Oh, girl, don't be so pessimistic.

Merlin landed in a broken castle, he searched for the breath, and said slowly:

Isn't there still a third of Asgard? Look, you won't die because of it. As long as you go to the earth, you can still recover slowly. Do you know what is the best thing?

Asgard has become a part of the earth, which means that as long as you don't need to land on that continent, as long as you stay somewhere on the earth, you can recover your strength. Of course, the speed is much slower than before.

But time means nothing to the goddess of death. You can experience life while recovering.

And the earth is a very interesting place. I have always felt that it is Odin's fault that you have come to this point.

Lord Raven chattered and said:

What kind of battlefield do you fight as a girl? When you were growing up, you should let the queen cultivate you, cultivate your body and cultivate your character, so that your inner violence and desire will not expand to the current level.

You know, every time you take a life, it's actually the obliteration of human nature. When you kill enough people, it will be difficult for you to be called a real person.

Odin trained you in the wrong way, so your current rebellion has a lot to do with him.

Oh, I found it.

Merlin stood in front of a collapsed cellar, his fingers moved slightly, and in the gravitational distortion, the collapsed ruins were lifted, revealing Thor who was crushed under the ruins.

This stubborn guy was as unwilling to give up his own world as Hela, and did not leave with Tianhou and Loki, but he was lucky, and was not completely killed in the sky collapse.

A faint layer of runes shrouded Thor in a spherical ward, protecting him, and his goat, when it mattered most.

The grumpy Teeth Gritter had his leg broken by the falling ruins.

But this loyal beast is still guarding its master.

Merlin put Hela aside, stretched out his hand and pulled Thor out of the ruins, and restrained the goat that was trying to breathe fire and bite him.

He checked Thor's injuries and found that the guy just passed out and didn't suffer much.

Look, Thor is in better shape than you.

Merlin turned to the panting little Hella who sat cross-legged on the ground and said:

He lost the godhead he conceived a long time ago, so naturally he will not be hurt by the destruction of Asgard.

To be honest, something like Godhead looks gorgeous, but when you have a deep enough understanding of it, don't you think that it is actually very tasteless?

The strange godhead can give you great strength when you are weak, but when you are strong enough, the godhead becomes a kind of bondage instead.

Bind you in Asgard, eternal life cannot leave this land, live for it, and die for it, and the stronger it is, the harder it is to break through.

With Odin's talent, he should have broken through the single universe long ago, but he was bound by the godhead.

Merlin looked at Hela who said nothing, and said:

In your current situation, it's still too late to give up. Anyway, it's all damaged like that. Why don't you completely lose your godhead like Thor, lose all your connections with Asgard, all grievances, and freely go another way. .”

Your best advantage lies in your underworld, not your godhead. If you manage Asgard's underworld with all your heart, and find a group of friends to help you, you will definitely become a very powerful hell lord.

Even if it breaks through the single universe, it's only a matter of time.

Little Hila folded her arms and sat cross-legged on the ground.

She stared at Merlin with the posture of a little girl, and she said:

Why did you say this to me, and why did you save me just now? Are you trying to recruit me?

Yo, this little girl is really smart.

Merlin laughed and reached out to touch Hela's ball head. He looked into Hela's dark green eyes and said seriously:

Yes, I'm just recruiting you. I have a small organization. We now occupy three hells, but it's not enough. If you add your Hades, our power will be even stronger.

I will not give up my godhood, don't even think about it!

Hella pursed her lips, turned her head to the other side, and said:

You just said it nicely, what about going another way, giving up the godhead will make me immediately enter the weakest state, just like Thor now.

But how hard it is to walk the path of strength again, how long will it take me to rejoin the Heavenly Father?

That might be the way.

Hela stared at the broken continent of Asgard, she said in a childlike voice:

But it's not my way. The godhead is the natural power of the Asgardians, and I use it as a matter of course.

Well, whatever you want.

Merlin didn't try to persuade him any more. He glanced at Thor and found a strange stone in Thor's hand. It was as primitive as a cluster of gemstones, but there were runes shining on the surface of the gemstone.

Well, it turned out to be this, the original rune, the jewel of Asgard magic, the Norn Stone.

Merlin took the stone from Thor's hand, and the rune shield lingering around Thor disappeared. This thing was obtained from the collector when Thor escaped from the void.

It seems that this thing also saved Thor's life when the sky fell apart.

I gotta Feeling.

Merlin picked up the Norn Stone and put it in his sleeve. He lifted Thor up with gravity, and stretched his hand to Xiao Hai. He said:

The road you gave up, the road you never imagined, your brother will go to the end, I hope you will not regret it when you see the real Thor

Tch, just this trash?

Little Hila took Merlin's hand and stood up from the ground. She slapped the dust off her body, glanced at the unconscious Thor, and said disdainfully:

For 1,500 years, I haven't been able to condense the godhead of Thor, nor have I been able to break through the heavenly father. I just rely on a piece of waste that I gave up to show off my power? I am looking forward to the day when I see him make me regret it.

You'll see.

Merlin waved a healing spell that healed the Teeth Gripper's broken leg, and placed Thor on the back of the goat.

He took little Haila's hand, and let little Haila hold the reins of the Teeth Grinder, and they continued to jump forward, jumping towards the largest continent suspended among the stars.

That's where Surtur is.

The flame giant finally completed Ragnarok. Although it was not complete, it did destroy most of Asgard anyway.

As a person who was directly impacted by the explosive force of the earth's core, Surtur's state at this time was really terrible.

The magma it aroused that covered the world had been sprinkled to the sea of ​​stars when the world was broken, and what was left here was only a thick layer of solidified volcanic ash, and Surtur was lying in that volcanic ash.

It's still as massive as a mountain.

But at this time, there was no jumping fire on its body, and the originally scorching magma on its body had cooled down, exuding a dark red luster.

in cooling.

It leaned there, like a late old man, throwing only half of the Twilight Branch in his hand, and the giant sword that had completed its mission was blown off, leaving only a hilt.

Surtur's blurred face was peaceful.

It looked at the stars of the broken world, and it was not known whether it was an illusion. Merlin even felt a kind of aura from its face.

Peace and contentment.

The crazy giant at this time is like a philosopher thinking about life and the future.

swish

Merlin, little Hela, and the Gritter carrying Thor appeared on the ground in front of Surtur.

That layer of ash was very uncomfortable to step on.

As Merlin walked, ashes flew like black snow.

You look content, man.

Merlin raised his head and looked at the giant as tall as a mountain. There was burning magma under its buttocks. After all, it was the king of flames, and it was also very hot when it was dying.

Only when it is truly dead does the flame go out.

Yeah, I've never been so satisfied.

Surtur grinned a warm smile, and his deep voice sounded like roaring mountains in this broken world.

it says:

I have fulfilled the mission of my birth, I have destroyed Asgard, I have attracted the Twilight of the Gods, and I have no regrets in my life.

Uh, need I explain?

Merlin said very uninterestedly:

You didn't completely destroy Asgard. A third of it migrated to another world. The gods haven't died yet. In fact, none of the gods have died.

It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!

Surtur raised his broken hand with difficulty, and said calmly:

The gods live in the sky like unreachable stars, but if they fall on the ground and share the earth with other beings, they can no longer be called gods.

really.

Merlin nodded approvingly, and under Hela's surprised gaze, he said to Surtur like an old friend:

It doesn't really matter how they call themselves, the only thing that matters is how others call them. After losing Asgard, it is really difficult for them to call themselves gods.

From this point of view, you have indeed completed Ragnarok.

Yeah, I've done it.

The Lord of Fire looked down at Merlin, and said:

That prophecy is over, I can finally get rid of the shackles, are you going to kill me? I feel the killing intent in your eyes

Come on, kill me, and tell my story through your mouth

I am free! Free from a life of pure purpose, it is time for the flame to go out, and in the ashes behind me a new world is born.

Raven

Tell the story of Ragnarok.

Merlin nodded, he took the Raven Book from his waist, and turned over the blank third page.

He said to Surtur:

I will record this interesting story.

I will tell it to everyone I know, and they will remember the name Surtur, and they will say it in every Ragnarok saga.

swish

A ray of purple light appeared beside Merlin, wearing a long white dress, holding a dinner fork in his left hand and chopsticks in his right hand, and Ganata, who kept swallowing his saliva, walked out of the light.

She impatiently said to Merlin:

Hot pot! You said you invited me to eat hot pot! You promised me! Where is my hot pot?

It's so big, can't you see it?

After Merlin said something, Ganata raised her head and saw Surtur, who was leaning against the mountain wall in front of her and had lost consciousness.

Her purple eyes widened, and she wiped her drool.

she says:

Wow! You are really a good friend, Meilin, Heavenly Father! Hey, the little girl in the green dress next to you smells pretty good too.

Is she a side dish for the hot pot?

Little Hela felt Ganata's eyes on the food, she immediately shuddered, and hid behind Merlin, like a frightened child.

After being weakened, little Hella's thinking seems to have returned to the way it was when she was 8 years old, and it seems to be more serious than before.

Merlin reached out his hand to block Ganata's gaze, and he looked at the girl with a big stomach.

He said seriously:

This is a friend, don't eat it!
