Bloodline Survival Guide

There was no light around, it was pitch black.

Chen Zhen felt that his body became light and light, and he didn't know what space he entered. The surroundings were pure darkness, and there was nothing.

……

who am I?

Where is this place?

Where are you going?

Chen Zhen's brain seemed to be stretched into a rough hand, messing up all the memories of the past and the present. What appeared in his mind was blood for a while, a storm for a while, and a doomsday collapse for a while. False, true, false, true...

He stood there like a wandering ghost for a long time, and when the images stopped, he felt that his memory finally returned to a blank sheet of paper, empty and empty, with nothing on it.

Both body and mind, empty and light.

Am I dead?

Chen Zhen tentatively took a step forward in a daze, walking cautiously in the darkness.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, a light like a firefly suddenly floated over from nowhere, hovering up and down in the darkness and beating around him.

Chen Zhen's eyes followed the light, and he stretched out his hand involuntarily to catch the light that was especially bright in the dark.

But I couldn't catch it.

Chen Zhen was a little anxious, and ran in a panic following that light... There was nothing here, and he followed instinct to chase that light source that seemed both weak and precious in the dark.

That point of light seemed to be a star in the darkness, and only by catching him could he see direction and hope.

Can't catch up, can't catch, that point of light is getting farther and farther away, flying faster and faster, and soon becomes a small point... Chen Zhen can't catch up with that speed no matter what.An inexplicable panic surged in his heart, and he kept chasing, forgetting the fear that this darkness brought to him, and still stubbornly chasing that little light tirelessly...

He was getting more and more tired, and the darkness seemed to swallow up people's consciousness and will... After running for an unknown amount of time, sleepiness hit him. He was so tired that he lost consciousness, and began to feel a little sleepy for no reason.

His pace gradually slowed down.

Chen Zhen's eyelids were clenched, and he couldn't help but want to stop and take a rest...

At this moment, a call came from far and near to his ear——

"Vidal..."

Chen Zhen was shocked, and his footsteps stopped suddenly.

In the next second, there was a muffled sound, like a hammer knocking open the dark shell from the outside... The dark space shattered with a bang——

Chen Zhen couldn't help closing her eyes abruptly to adapt to the sudden white light.

When you open your eyes, there is a whole new world in front of you.

He was in a forest.

Chen Zhen leaned over unconsciously, and he saw a man with silver hair reaching his waist.

His silver hair was tied loosely behind him and was tied loosely by a golden headband, and he wore a blue and white robe.He was wearing only one boot, which was worn out and looked very worn.

But Chen Zhen looked at his profile and his behavior, and felt that he was a very noble person.

The man was tending a plant, but a gust of wind blew his silver hair.

The man turned his head slightly and glanced at the dense forest around him.

Chen Zhen saw the man's ice-blue eyes, and his eyes met... Suddenly, the feeling of blood connection caused Chen Zhen to feel a sense of sadness all over his body, and there was an urge to roll tears in his eyes, which made Chen Zhen feel sad. As if he was following his instinct... he approached that figure step by step...

He walked into that figure in a trance... The moment he merged with that body, Chen Zhen thought in a daze - he didn't know if he walked into him, or if this was himself.

----------

The world is connected by a giant tree.

When Vidal was a child, his father god Odin would occasionally hold him in his lap and tell him about the world they lived in.

They live in only one of the worlds, and the world tree connects the nine worlds.This great tree is called the World Tree, which connects the nine worlds to each other. It is extremely tall and beautiful, and the branches and leaves on the top of the tree even extend to a place higher than the sky, with no end in sight.

The gods don't climb the world tree, they mostly travel between worlds through the rainbow bridge.Every day, the gods will cross this gorgeous rainbow bridge, and hold a meeting at the edge of the spring where the last tree roots of the World Tree extend.

That spring is called the Fountain of Urd, and it is guarded by three goddesses who are in charge of the past, present, and future.

These three goddesses control people's life, snuggle up to the spring water every day, and weave people's destiny.

Vidal's father, Odin, is the lord of the gods of the Aesir.The world they live in is called Asgard, which is just one of them.

Odin was strict with his subordinates and cold to his other sons.He is the wise and stalwart Lord of the Gods, who is decisive and majestic in his actions. He once exchanged one of his eyes in order to gain more wisdom.So he has only one eye, and on his shoulders are two crows, and they will fly across the nine worlds to convey new news.

He has many sons, the eldest son Thor, the God of War, Tyr, the God of Poetry, Brach, the God of Poetry, and Baldr, the God of Light... He tries to treat his children equally, but he only prefers one of his sons—Vidar.

But no one was dissatisfied with it.In fact, everyone who has seen Vidal will not hate him, and will think that the favor of the main god is also what he deserves.

Among the other children of Odin, Thor and Tyr are irritable and irritable, and the other gods are also eccentric, each with their own paranoia, but Vidal is not.He has a very good personality, he is gentle and generous to everyone, he likes to laugh, and he is soft and handsome, and anyone who sees him can't help but smile.Even Thor, who was on the verge of rage all day long, spoke softly when he saw him.

He is the god of the forest, the ruler of all plants and the earth.A spirited land, when he passes by, it is always full of flowers, lush branches and leaves, full of vitality.Odin once said to all the gods: My son Vidar, he represents and new life and hope.

But this is not the reason why everyone prefers and respects him. Everyone always respects him with a cautious distance and a little bit of sympathy.

Because... Vidal never speaks.

No one knows why he doesn't speak. There are legends that he only talks to Odin, and there are legends that he is cursed and can never speak.

God often discusses three things in private: how many lovers Odin has, whether Frey has ever had a relationship with his own sister Freya, and the last one is whether Vidal is dumb or not.

But it was passed around, and no one knew why this noble and elegant god was always silent.Thor also resembled this brother of his own: silent as a tumulus.

So Vidal is also called the God of Silence.

Silence can be both good and bad.

Because of silence, Vidal is the best listener.Because he never speaks, the gods like to pour out their troubles and sorrows to him, and don't have to worry that he will tell others.After all, he is a voiceless god, and his daily hobby is tending flowers and plants in the forest. When he is free, he travels to various worlds through the Rainbow Bridge, or goes to see the scenery of other places.

He doesn't like banquets and excitement, and lives quietly in the mountains and forests, as if any disputes have nothing to do with him.

Same day.

Vidal holds a large handful of golden lilies, a precious flower he found in a forest.He took the flower back to the Golden Palace, and prepared to dedicate it to his father, Odin.

Odin was talking to Loki when he stepped into the golden palace.

Odin's face was uneasy, and his one eye full of wisdom was staring at the tall and tall Loki, his highness: "I had a dream, you seem to have betrayed your Sign, and had a child with a giantess elsewhere .”

Loki is Odin's foster brother.He has a handsome face, but there is always something unspeakable evil about him.Mischief and destruction are his forte, and he always likes to do things that annoy others.

"My respected brother Odin...I think that is a ridiculous dream." Loki denied aloud, "I have never done such a thing."

"I don't think that's absurd..." Odin's expression was determined with insight, "I saw everything with the eyes of the mind in my dream, and you will bring back three children... My dream told me that they would cause Destruction... oh, Vidal, here you come."

Vidal was standing at the gate of the hall, and when he heard Odin calling him, he walked up to Odin, smiled and nodded to Odin.

His ice-blue eyes were brighter than jewels, brighter than stars.

Everyone loves to look into Vidal's eyes.He didn't speak, but those blue eyes seemed to convey everything he had to say, and yes, they were talking eyes.

The meaning in his eyes at this moment is: Father God, don't frown.Look at this golden lily, how well it blooms, what in this world is more joyful and troublesome than the blooming of flowers and the falling of leaves?

Odin understood that look, and his cold expression eased. He first touched Vidal's silver hair hanging in front of him, reached out and took the golden lily in his hand, then turned his head and said to Loki below. : "I hate unfaithful brothers and subjects. This time I will let the past go, but your three children who have been wandering outside must be brought back and dealt with by me, and they cannot be left alone."

Odin asked God of War Tyr to follow Loki to bring back Loki's child.

Two days later, Tyr returned to the temple with Loki's children.

Loki's first child was called Jormungandr, a giant snake.It was tied to a pine log and kept spitting black venom.Till said that in just a few days, its body has been rapidly growing in size and elongation, and it is unknown what kind of monster it will become in the future.

After seeing it, Odin was very displeased, "Take it to where it belongs, and don't let it mess up."

Jormungandr was brought to grow in the gray water of the World Sea.

Odin knew that it would keep growing until his body could surround the world.

Loki's second child is called Hela.

Like Loki, she has green pupils and a lifeless and ominous appearance.

"Are you alive or a corpse?" Odin looked at her.

"I am myself. I don't understand what you mean by death or life. Is that important?" Hela stared at Odin with lifeless eyes. "But I like corpses and undead, and I also love darkness and death."

Odin recalled his dream, knowing that the girl would eventually become the Queen of the Undead in that lightless world and the leader of the underworld.He brought Hela to the darkest place underground, Odin was satisfied, and Hela was also very satisfied.

Everyone was surprised when Tyre brought up Loki's third child.

It was a young wolf cub with silver fur.It's not pure silver fur, with some scattered gray and black in the middle, but it looks like a silver wolf as a whole.

He seemed very wary of the gods around him, so he lay quietly on the ground. He was actually not that old, but he insisted not to mention Erbao along the way.

This wolf pup has amber eyes.

Compared with the previous poisonous snakes Jormungandr and Hela, it doesn't look like a monster born in the swamp at all, but a divine beast born in the God Realm.

Tyr smiled and said to Odin: "Father God, his name is Fenrir. He eats raw meat. He is very smart. He can speak the language of humans and gods. There is nothing weird about it, but he seems to hate being touched by others."

The goddess Freya has no resistance to furry animals. The moment she saw it, she couldn't help but want to touch the soft fur.She is conceited of her beauty, and the nine worlds have her own suitors, and she always wants to get what she likes by any means, she thought to herself, it's just a touch, he is so small, would he eat himself?

The wolf named Fenrir was lazily lying on its stomach, but Freya stepped forward lightly. As soon as he stretched out his hand, it jumped up and screamed at Freya.

The cry penetrated the entire Golden Palace, and also scared Vidal who had just stepped into the palace.

Fenrir spoke in a language the gods could understand: "Don't touch me with your dirty hands!"

The faces of all the gods changed, especially Freya, she kept backing away in fright, tears streaming from her eyes.

Vidal was still holding a large bouquet of lilies of the valley that the Sunrise Goddess had asked him for. He heard the noise, so he leaned forward and looked in through the figures of the gods.

It was a wolf. It didn't look like it had grown up yet, but its size was already very huge. I don't know how huge it will be when it becomes an adult.

The wolf stood alone among the gods, with arrogance and hostility in his eyes.

No more gods came forward.

All the gods can see that this is an animal that is difficult to teach, although it is still very young, but one day it will grow into a ferocious beast that cannot be tamed.After all, he came from the kingdom of giants, was born in the dark swamp, and was brought back by Loki.

Sitting in the hall, Odin also had an ominous premonition in his heart.For in his dream of the future, there was the wolf called Fenrir, standing among the ruins.

But Odin didn't know what to do with the wolf.

Just when the gods looked at each other and didn't know how to deal with him, Vidal passed through the gods with lily of the valley in his arms, walked slowly to Fenrir, and squatted down.

The hall was quiet, no one dared to stop Vidal, and those words of stopping were blocked by his kind smile.Those ice-blue eyes seemed to appease the gods and said: It's okay, don't worry about me.

Then no god spoke again.

Vidal smiled and looked at the giant beast in front of him, then stretched out his hand - and gently stroked the soft fur on its head.

Fenrir did not jump up and make any disrespectful gestures towards Vidal as expected by the gods.

It didn't move, and stood there quietly, with Vidal stroking his head.

The hall was silent.

After a while, Fenrir took the initiative to take a step forward to rub Vidal's palm.

All the gods were stunned for a while, and then everyone quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, if Fenrir had to say it himself, he didn't know why he was willing to let Vidal touch his head at that time, because he really hated others touching him anywhere, no one could do it.

It may be that when Vidal walked over, the light fragrance of lily of the valley wafted by the wind on his body made him relax.

It might also be Vidal's ice-blue vast eyes that made him lose his mind.

Or maybe it was... Vidal's smile that made him freeze involuntarily, like a sea of ​​stars in his mouth.

Or it could just be Vidal himself.

In this way, Fenrir stayed in Asgard.

The author has something to say: At the beginning, he wrote about Zhen Kei chasing a little light in the dark and then walking into memory. That scene is a metaphor for his previous process of chasing Shen Mingguang (chasing light).Regarding the mythology part, I am afraid that everyone will think that the names are too many and too confusing, so I use a more straightforward vernacular writing method. If you have any questions, just ask!The myth part is the highlight, and the battle line is a little longer, so everyone should be mentally prepared.Let me remind again that mythology is the most important thing. Many girls may feel dull if they don’t understand Norse mythology, so I try to write as straightforward and interesting as possible! There will also be reminders and footnotes in the words, don’t think I’m talking too much.There is not a single plot in this book that is superfluous. I buried a lot of foreshadowing in the front, and I will slowly reveal the truth of the matter in the future. Please read it patiently!
