You and me under the world tree

Even if this is "Nine Realms", even if it's just an online game that will never explain the origin of the players, it still needs to give a reasonable explanation for what the NPC does.

So, Hodder just waited quietly here.

He was waiting for her to come up with a reasonable answer - yes, reasonable, not correct or true.

In the end, he didn't know if he could fully believe what Tianhou said.

Because if it was the Queen of Heaven, Frigga, the things she said to the witch Vanatis were obviously wrong or not right.

And most importantly...

"Do you still remember the story I told?" At this moment, Tianhou suddenly said.

Then, the eyes under Hodder's helmet narrowed involuntarily.

How could he forget?

Perhaps for this world, this was more than half a year ago, or even longer.

But for him as a player, this episode was only a few days ago, not even a week.

So he remembers it well.

It was in that hut with its own garden that Tianhou told a story of the past in a simple but vivid tone.

It was about one of Diva's own children.

But of course, because Hodder hadn't noticed the identity of the 'Witch Vanatis' before, so he didn't have any substantive touch on this story.

But if you think about it carefully, this story is clearly nonsense.

How many sons does Tianhou have?

Not counting the fictional characters that World Tree Company suddenly started to make up with a twitch of its head, in the myths and legends, she has only two biological children.

Baldr, the god of light, and Hodr, the god of darkness.

These two are the only orthodox children, but Bader is loved by the gods anyway, and her popularity is quite good. Her other child is no different from a dead house.

And, like light versus darkness, Hodur is not actually favored by the gods.

However, the point is not the personalities of these two gods, but their current state.

Now Baldr is still alive, and the oath of protection given to him after that day still exists, which also means that Hodr should also be alive.

However, the expression on Tianhou's face did not seem to be fake.

When mentioning these things, she closed her eyes in pain.

Some things are the pain of her life after all.

Then, after calming down a little, she finally took a deep breath.

"That story was true, I lost a child."

Then, she looked directly at Hodder, as if to see something from his cloudy eyes.

She seemed to be covering up something, and she seemed to be mourning for something.

Anyway, it took a while before she added another word.

"Forever... I lost him forever."

However, when Tian Hou talked about this, Huo De felt a little irritated for no reason.

Because judging from the common sense of the legend and the facts that have been shown in the game, the gods are not ordinary people.

The death that mortals fear is not the end for these gods, such as Hermod.

Although Hodder once thought that he solved a problem by twisting his neck, both Loki and Lakin later emphasized that simple killing cannot solve the gods.

So here comes the question, what does Frigga mean by these words now?

For Tianhou, there is no way for her to go, but there is actually only one place: Helheim, commonly known as the underworld.

So, even if what Tianhou said is true, she really lost her child.

But that kind of state is not a real "eternal separation" for the gods.

In the final analysis, even if Tianhou couldn't enter the Netherworld due to her priesthood or other reasons, other people could.

For example, Hermod, and even Odin himself can come and go freely.

So at this moment, Huo De's mood did not have any ups and downs, and he even wanted to laugh.

"Oh, and then? Her Majesty the Queen of Heaven doesn't mean to say, I look alike to your child, right?"

At this moment, the witch probably didn't expect that the soldier would suddenly interrupt her at this moment, so she could only look at him blankly.

That's exactly what she wanted to say.

However, these words were obviously just an 'excuse' to her, but when this excuse and reason came from the mouth of another party, it seemed a bit ironic inexplicably.

There are some facts that no one will believe even if they are told, because no one will believe it except her.

Even the parties involved.

Not because of anything else, just because there has never been any talk of 'reincarnation' or 'reincarnation' in the entire Nine Realms.

Yes, not at all.

For mortals, there are only three destinations for the soul:

The brave will go to Asgard to share the glory with the gods

The sick, the murdered, the outcast by the gods, and even the god-haters travel to Helheim, the realm of the Queen of Death.

If you don't go to these two places, if you stay in the human world forcibly, your soul without physical support or other support will eventually dissipate.

Maybe turning into wraiths can survive longer, but they generally become the achievements of some heroes.

So in the end, the queen finally closed her eyes.

No matter what you say, it doesn't make sense.

"Your name is also very similar to his." In the end, she didn't know what to keep, she said, "His name is Hodur, and he is a child that makes me proud."

Chapter 85: Bash My Allies

On the endless sea, the overlord who controls the northern sea is still floating on the sea.

The ferocious head of the giant python frightened the sea beasts in the northern sea area. In the previous battles, those sea beasts were either poisoned to death by the poisonous blood spilled unintentionally, or because of the shock that almost destroyed the world. hide away.

In short, looking at it now, whether it is a ghoul or a sea beast, they are far away from here.

Therefore, just using magic to sit calmly on the sea or something, this kind of thing is not considered dangerous.

But in fact, Ye Mengjiad didn't understand this either, he just blinked his big eyes and quietly looked at the man who was motionless like a sculpture.

But at this time, the sage in tattered armor was just sitting on the sea.

The cold wind was still blowing in this sea area, but Hodder didn't feel it was cold.

However, as always, he was 'in a daze' here, but he wasn't thinking. He was staring at the large metal ingot in his hand.

This metal ingot just looks different from ordinary metals. It exudes a bright silver color throughout, and this color is much purer than the mithril in the atrium.

If I had to make an analogy, it would be like the color reflected by the moonlight shining on the surface of the lake.

Legend has it that when the Valkyrie wore armor and rode across the sky on a war horse, they exuded this color.

But of course, after all, the armor worn by the high-ranking Valkyrie is made of this special metal of God's Domain.

Because the owner of God's Domain is the Asa Protoss, the metal produced there is of course named after the Protoss.

【Asa god iron ingot (forging material)】

It's not a quest item, nor is it some garbage that can only be seen in a backpack. This thing is really usable for players.

That is to say, as long as Huo De has the blueprint of this aspect, he can use this seemingly heavy iron block to cast a weapon he wants.

And thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of the previous things.

Although the conversation between Tianhou and him was not pleasant, in the end, Tianhou still gave him this piece of forging material.

Not because of anything else, but because she took away the cursed blade made of mistletoe, from her point of view, there must always be a little 'compensation'.

On the other hand, she was thanking Hodder for his 'graciousness'.

Of course, this mercy was not directed at Baldur, it was actually Thor.

After all, the queen's magical attainments are extremely superb, so she only needs one glance to see that Thor, who is poisoned by the evil dragon, is still hanging on his breath.

The one holding his breath was Hodder.

As for why not kill Thor directly, the reason is also very simple, because 'killing' is meaningless.

Even if the gods are killed, the gods can be resurrected, and Thor is not Hermod, he is estimated to be reborn directly in Asgard.

Of course, it's not that Huo De has the means to 'prevent' the resurrection of the gods, but if this means is used, it is tantamount to flipping the chessboard.

But Tianhou obviously didn't know this—or, she probably knew that Hodder felt that killing gods was meaningless.

However, it was true that he was merciful, so he made another useless favor.

Moreover, this point may also become a point that can be used in the future.

After all, Odin seemed extremely suspicious.

However, even if these 'arrangements' are completed, even if the result of this battle is not too different from what he expected.

But he was still puzzled, because there was a problem, that is, when Tianhou gave the so-called 'reward', there was no 'task' here.

This piece of rare metal, which seemed to have no abnormality, fell into his hands, as calm as in reality, one by one, one by one.

However, this is a game after all...

Thinking of this, the expression on Hodder's face couldn't help but become more subtle.

As a player, he is actually used to the tasks issued by the game system, and he is also used to guessing about the task flow from these system prompts.

But this time it was really quite sudden.

It’s fine if it’s an ordinary quest item or something else, but to be honest, this is the first time that an NPC gives materials or something.

Is it possible that this broken game has installed the NPC favorability system, and started giving things based on the favorability?

As a veteran "Nine Realms" foot man, he was a little puzzled.

But later, he didn't think about it anymore. After all, this kind of reward is extremely rare, and it can even be said to be a bug.

You must know that in the game "Nine Realms", the material and attributes of the equipment are directly linked.

If he could really turn this piece of divine iron into a weapon, he estimated that he would not need to change weapons until the end of the version, or even before the server was shut down.

Then, at this moment, he couldn't help finding another task in the task list.

Speaking of which, from the very beginning to the very beginning, he has been keeping this mission at the bottom.

Because it was the main storyline, he didn't pay much attention to these, but he still remembered the last reward for the mission marked 'Epic'.

"Yes, this is it."

After pulling down the task menu, Hodder couldn't help but take a deep breath.

[Epic Mission: Descendants of Heroes]

[Introduction: The descendants of heroes will eventually embark on the road of heroes]

[Mission objective: assist Siegfried to regain the throne of the Netherlands (0/1)]

[Task Reward: Fragment of Holy Sword Gulam (forging material)]

At the beginning, he felt that he might not have any suitable materials on hand to take another fragment and recast another 'Holy Sword of God's Wrath'. After all, he didn't know that it could be used as a forging until he saw this so-called 'reward'. How big is the holy sword fragment used for the material.

So I didn't care at the time.

But now...

"I guess I don't have to worry about anything."

In fact, after experiencing the previous episodes, he himself has no more thoughts on this 'shard of the Holy Sword Gorum'.

It's not because of anything else, it's just that the entire Holy Sword of God's Wrath has been sworn by the Queen of Heaven.

The power of this oath is not even engraved on the sword through the function of runes, but the unique power of the gods.
