Stupid Odin

It should be known that most male Frost Giants were an eyesore, and Loki, as a pure-blooded giant, was clearly a mutation.

Loki's two brothers, Helblindi and Byleistr, grew to a height of 8 meters at a young age, with ugly appearances, uncoordinated facial features, and distinct spikes in several places on their faces, such as their cheekbones. Their appearance was almost identical to that of their father, Fárbauti.

Loki, on the other hand, had a handsome appearance and extraordinary demeanor, possessing the beautiful temperament of his mother, Laufey. Interestingly, his height was almost the same as that of the four strong men of the Aesir, all around 5 meters tall.

No matter which world, as long as the main species looks like humans, everyone's aesthetics are relatively consistent.

Moreover, when Loki wasn't messing around, he was a very good guy at livening up the atmosphere.

While Bestla was chatting with her sister, Loki found the Thanes brothers.

The God of Mischief of later generations always had some tricks up his sleeve. As soon as he came up, he greeted his three cousins enthusiastically.

"Yo! We're going to be good brothers, right?" Loki put his left hand behind his back and spread his right palm flat, showcasing a good trick of near Frost Element control.

An ice-forged mace appeared in his fair hand.

Good, this is very 'Frost Giant'.

After all, this Jötunheimr world is all about who has the biggest fist, and this trick may be Loki's way of proving his courage.

For enemies, this trick is just right, but for relatives, it seems a bit inappropriate.

Unexpectedly, the next second Loki shook his hand, and the mace in his hand turned into the appearance of a large bird.

Okay, this is very mischievous!

It should be known that the Aesir are different from humans and are very precocious. Now, the Thanes brothers are at the age of youthful vigor.

Thanes said a plain "Oh", and Odin and Vili immediately showed the wretched expressions unique to male gods.

Odin happily said: "Loki, right? You can follow me from now on."

The Thanes brothers accepted Loki as their little follower.

Years passed, and the three divine brothers grew tall and handsome, with manly, square faces, making Loki envious.

Loki, who had been playing with the Thanes brothers since he was a child, somehow grew a bit effeminate.

Thanes clearly felt Loki's effeminate aura, as well as an aura of destiny (pit) and goods (burden).

As a transmigrator, Thanes knew very well what diplomacy was. The Aesir now only had a few cats and dogs, while there were hundreds and thousands of Frost Giants outside. Under this situation of strong enemies and weak allies, of course, it was necessary to unite all forces that could be united to fight against the more powerful giant legions.

Thanes remained silent and continued to take care of his two younger brothers with care.

Bor and Bestla did not give birth to a fourth child. Thanes guessed that he might have taken the place of Bor's third son, Vé, in the original mythology.

The original Vé was not considered powerful. The key was that when the world conceived new gods, there were actually hidden quota restrictions.

If a certain field was occupied by a certain god, the world would not give birth to more gods in that field, diluting the god's divine power.

Bor was a pure physical-type god. Although he was immensely powerful, he failed to inherit any knowledge about divine power and elements from the Ancestor of the Gods. This deficiency would, under normal circumstances, cause the Odin brothers to only be simple physical powerhouses at this stage.

Thanes was different.

Even though the evolution of this world had not yet entered the next stage, he had already sensitively sensed the aura of change.

Nothing else, the giants born from the Frost Giant progenitor Ymir were too numerous.

Ymir's fission-style reproduction of giants was already outrageous enough, and the giants were also combining with each other to breed offspring, and the most direct result was a shortage of food.

At this time, the Jötunheimr world had no sunlight. In the eternal night, there were only a limited number of herbivores and carnivores. It would inevitably become increasingly difficult to feed hundreds of giants.

The pyramid of the food chain was like this. If the lower layer was not large enough, how could the giants, as the top predators, be full?

Even if Bor and his wife deliberately avoided expanding their hunting grounds, more and more wild giants were intruding into the Aesir's hunting grounds.

For these guys with bad brains, communication was ineffective most of the time.

Fights inevitably occurred and became more frequent.

Bor was a taciturn father, but this did not mean that he was not annoyed by the frequent invasions of the giants.

Relatively, the giant race also felt fear towards the Aesir.

In their view, Bor's second son, Odin, and third son, Vili, were not as omnipotent as the eldest son, Thanes, but they were also powerful existences who could tear giants apart with their hands.

The Aesir were so strong in the third generation. Wouldn't the fourth generation be even more terrifying?

The accumulated hatred, suspicion, and doubt over the years, combined with fear, finally persuaded the Frost Giants to move their ancestor Ymir.

This news was also transmitted to the Aesir through the traitor among the Frost Giants—Fárbauti and Laufey.

Inside a small valley, Bor's family and Fárbauti's family were sitting around together.

Their huge bodies were barriers, blocking the wind, snow, and fear.

Everyone first looked at Bor. As the current Aesir King, Bor's power was still the strongest. After becoming larger, Bor could easily throw a thousand-ton boulder and smash ordinary giants to death.

Feeling the hot gazes of his relatives and descendants, Bor shook his head and asked, "I don't have a good brain. Who has a better idea?"

Odin couldn't wait to speak: "Father, why don't you hold off those ordinary giants, and the three of us brothers will join forces to attack Ymir?"

Bor was stunned for a moment.

Of course, he knew that this suggestion had great risks.

But in a head-on confrontation, even with Laufey's family helping, the two families were still sparsely populated, and they would be exhausted to death by the giant group. Although his precious son Odin's suggestion was equivalent to pushing the greatest risk to his head.

Being besieged by so many giants, he would be crippled even if he didn't die.

Bor was the kind of silent and hardworking old father who was more willing to take responsibility.

Other people's sons pit their fathers for money, but his Odin pits his father for his life.

Even so, he almost wanted to agree on the spot.

At this moment, Thanes's voice suddenly sounded: "My foolish brother! Can't you think of a better way?"

Odin was speechless for a moment: "Brother, you…"

Bor pointed his name: "Thanes, you say!"

Fárbauti's family was slightly surprised by Thanes's statement and quickly pricked up their ears.

Thanes's wisdom was unique among the gods and giants. He could not only control the frost element but also had countless novel ideas, repeatedly exceeding everyone's imagination.

In recent years, everyone had become a bit blindly trusting and blindly following him.

Thanes sighed softly.

Just like animals can never understand why humans can use throwing weapons to kill them in seconds. In this ignorant and barbaric era, giants, and even the so-called gods, also find it difficult to keep up with the thinking of a transmigrator from China.

Even gods need enlightenment.

It seems that before Odin drank the famous Water of the Well of Wisdom, his IQ was still a bit touching.

Odin's level of exchange strategy, if replaced in 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms', he would not survive the second chapter.

Moreover, Odin's proposal was tantamount to selling his old father.

This was unacceptable to Thanes.
