Greece brings evildoers - Chapter 477

c471 My father’s defeat

After rinsing his body, changing clothes, and carefully erasing traces, Lorne took Hela’s hand and came to the Temple of Fertility.

At this time, Odin was pacing back and forth in the hall, frowning and worried about something.

After not seeing each other for a few years, the Asa’s Destiny God King seems to have aged a lot.

If you work too hard, you will age quickly.

Lorne shook his head secretly and led Hela beside him through the door.

“You are here!”

Seeing this large and small figure appear, Odin immediately greeted him with a face full of joy.

He first hugged the blood alliance brother warmly as a habit to thank him for his contribution to the atrium world for many years, and then stretched out his calloused right hand to touch his daughter Hela’s head.

However, facing the closeness of her biological father, Hela subconsciously avoided her head and shrank behind her teacher Lorne.

Odin’s hand froze in mid-air, his expression a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, Lorne quickly stepped forward to smooth things over:

“Hela, this is your father, Asa’s god-king. You met him half a year ago.”

“Hello, father.”

Hela replied dryly, like a mechanical repeater.

Immediately, she lowered her head habitually, and did not have too much eye contact or verbal communication with her biological father.

Although she knew that the old man in front of her was her biological father, she had met the Asa God King several times when she was growing up.

But every time they met, the other person came and went in a hurry. After asking her about the growth of her divinity and divine power as usual, she immediately returned to the Immortal Palace, busy waging war with the Warner Protoss, or suppressing rebellions in other countries.

Therefore, over the years, she had met her biological father only a handful of times, had only spoken a hundred words, and had an extremely vague impression of him, like a familiar stranger.

Odin also understood that he had not fulfilled his responsibilities as a father over the years, so he did not care too much about his daughter Hela’s indifference to him. He just laughed dryly and asked the question he was concerned about again:

“What was the result of this assessment?”

“I lost…”

Hela answered in a muffled voice.

Odin frowned when he heard this, and his originally kind face could not help but be covered by a dark cloud:

“So far, you still can’t beat Freya?”

“Temporarily, I will definitely win next time!”

Hela touched the two swords of the night sky hanging on her waist and replied proudly.

However, Odin waved his hand impatiently, his voice suddenly cold:

“Next time, next time! How many times has it been? How long do you want me to wait?”

Hela opened her mouth but could not speak. Her originally raised head dropped.

Seeing this, Lorne quickly stepped forward to excuse his student.

“Don’t worry, she’s already able to fight Freya back and forth even when she’s not even a few years old. It won’t be long before she can definitely surpass that Warner Valkyrie. Wait a minute…”

“I can wait, but can Asa afford it?!”

Odin snorted and asked, then looked at his daughter with a gloomy face, who had high hopes for him.

“Do you know that the peace and comfort you enjoy now were obtained with the blood and flesh of the Aesir people? If you delay for a moment longer, an Aesir warrior may die on the battlefield of Vanaheim! This Everything is because of your incompetence!”

Such heart-wrenching words made Hela clenched her fists tightly, dug her nails into her palms, tapped her teeth, and bit her lips unconsciously.

A strong sense of humiliation and self-doubt boiled over in that young heart.

Are you really that bad?

At this time, Lorn, who couldn’t bear it anymore, rushed forward and pushed the furious Odin away:

“That’s enough, she’s still a child! As a father, how can you say that?”

“But she is Asa’s princess!” Odin retorted coldly, and then added with a sullen face, “From the moment she was born, she had to shoulder the mission of fighting for Asa! I gave her so much As time goes by, she can’t even defeat her first opponent! How will she take on Asa’s destiny in the future?”

“So, at her age, have you done it?”

“…”

Faced with this sharp rhetorical question, Odin opened his mouth and was speechless.

After hesitating for a moment, he gave his daughter Hela a distorted smile and whispered:

“You go out to play first, your teacher and I have something to discuss.”

Hela heard this, but subconsciously turned her eyes to Lorne.

When she saw her teacher nodding, she felt relieved and turned around to leave the Temple of Abundance.

Noticing his daughter’s little moves, Odin couldn’t help but feel a little jealous:

“She seems to be closer to you than to me…”

“Of course, although you gave birth to her, I was the one who raised her. You, the father, are busier than me, and you don’t even care to look at her.”

Lorne hummed without hesitation, and then the expression on his face gradually became serious, and he looked at Odin faintly,

“What? The war with the Warner Protoss is not going well?”

“More than that!”

Without outsiders, Odin sat slumped in a chair behind closed doors, confiding to his blood alliance brother with a grimace,

“The life divinity of the Warner Protoss is good at continuous fighting. For so many years, they have not stopped harassing the border for a moment. Asgard has always been forced to remain in a state of war. Its military strength and morale have been severely depleted. Now it is almost I can’t hold on anymore.”

“So fast? It shouldn’t be.”

Lorne frowned, looking puzzled.

“Doesn’t the life power of the Vanir only cover Vanaheim? Send a small number of troops to the border, guard the Rainbow Bridge, and then take turns to avoid the war. Why can’t the Aesir hold on so quickly?”

“It’s because of the light elves…”

Odin explained the whole story with a helpless look on his face.

In this protracted war of gods, not only the Aesir were quietly planning a counterattack, but the Vanir were also busy.

They used their life divinity and affinity for nature to get closer and closer to the light elves who also loved nature, and spread anti-war remarks in Alfheim (the kingdom of elves), which led to serious divisions within the light elves, and the originally unified tribe was split into three.

Although some of them were willing to stay under the command of the Aesir, their fighting spirit was greatly reduced;

Another part chose to escape from the mountains and forests to avoid this war of gods;

And the last part directly broke away from the rule of the Aesir and threw themselves into the arms of the Vanir, becoming guides, completely forgetting that it was Odin who led the army of Asgard to quell the rebellion of the dark elves for the Elven Kingdom.

After listening to this, Loen looked at Odin dimly:

“If it was just the civil strife of the light elves, it wouldn’t be so troublesome for you, right?”

“Those rebels also nominated a new Elf King, who seems to be called [Frey], a Vanir…”

Odin replied with a wry smile, his eyes a little gloomy.

When Loen heard this name, his eyes were thoughtful.

Frey, the god of sunlight and fertility in Norse mythology, is in charge of sowing, harvesting, raising, reproduction, peace and prosperity. At the same time, he is also the son of the Vanir God King Njord and the Light One Gulveig, the brother of the Valkyrie Freya, and the future king of the Elf Kingdom Alfheim. The Light Elves under his command are kind and good at fighting.

It seems that some of the rebellious Light Elves are determined to get involved with the Vanir Protoss, and even go against the matriarchal clan tradition of the Elf Clan and serve the male alien god Frey as the king.

With these rebels as internal support, the Vanir Protoss can go deep into the Elf Kingdom Alfheim to lay out, and Asgard, the fairy palace where the Aesir Protoss is located, will no longer be safe.

No wonder Odin has aged so quickly after not seeing him for a few years.

Lorne shook his head and asked in a deep voice:

“Where is your kingly power? Have you tried to call upon the World Tree to clamp it?”

“I have tried, but new holy trees have appeared in the territory of Alfheim, and there are two of them. One of them has dark green leaves on the front and silver light on the back, and silver dewdrops are scattered when it flutters; the other has tender green leaves and golden edges, and the flowers are like strings of golden flames, swaying and sprinkling golden rain condensed from the ether. These two things have derived a golden forest in the Elven Kingdom, forming a new natural ecology, isolating the influence of the World Tree, and providing shelter for those rebels.”

Odin answered helplessly, his expression even more gloomy.

Lorne pressed his sore eyebrows, and he was a little troubled by the increasingly chaotic situation.

The Vanir Protoss was really well prepared for this infiltration.

And for some reason, the two holy trees mentioned by Odin always gave him a strange sense of déjà vu.

It seemed that he had seen this thing somewhere before.

But since he couldn’t grasp the inexplicable sense of familiarity, Lorne had to temporarily suppress his doubts and turned to look at Odin with a sad face:

“So, what are you going to do next?”

“I came here this time to take Hela away.”

“No! She is too young! Even if she is sent to the battlefield between Warner and Asa, she won’t play a big role!”

Lorne shook his head and refused, and did not agree to let his students take on this heavy mission too early.

Odin nodded in agreement, but then changed the subject:

“She really can’t stand on her own right now, so I’m going to change the way and let her grow up as soon as possible.”

“What way?”

“The three goddesses of Norn!”

Odin answered solemnly, his one eye flickering,

“They are the goddesses who control time and fate, and there must be a way to make Hela grow up as soon as possible!”

“I don’t agree!”

Lorne flatly refused and advised Odin earnestly,

“You and I both know that the laws of the Nordic world are based on sacrifice. The more you want to get, the more you will lose. And fate never gives gifts without a price!”

“So what? She was born to guard the divine cause of the Asir! What’s the point of paying a little price? The situation is critical now. Urgent, I can’t care so much! No matter what the price is, I am willing to accept it, and I can only accept it! ”

Odin shook his head and refuted, looking at his blood brother seriously,

“Besides, there is not much time left for Asa…”

“No! She is still a child, and she has not even enjoyed a complete childhood. You are forcing her to pick up a sword and fight on the battlefield. Don’t you think this is too cruel for her?”

Luo also made his attitude clear, blocking the door of the temple like a wall,

“No matter what you say, I don’t agree with you taking her away!”

“That’s my daughter. I decide what to do and what to do!”

“Her fate should be decided by herself!”

The two people looked at each other, and their eyes rubbed out invisible sparks in the air.

“Boom!”

A sudden roar interrupted the confrontation between the two.

Luo En raised his eyes and looked out the door.

I saw that the blazing flames rose from the south of the courtyard world, almost igniting half of the sky.

A thousand-foot-tall flaming giant stood between heaven and earth, letting out a deafening roar.

The heat wave that burned the mountains and boiled the seas rolled in, causing the temperature of the originally refreshing atrium world to rise sharply, as if it was falling into the boundless hell.

“It’s Surtur, the fire giants from Muspelheim (the Land of Fire) are here again.”

Lorne replied in a deep voice, his face full of gloom.

There are three branches of giants. Frost giants and mountain giants live in Jotunheim (the kingdom of giants) to the north of the atrium, and fire giants live in Muspelheim (the kingdom of fire) to the south of the atrium.

Previously, he used gambling to successfully defeat the large-scale attacks of the frost giants and mountain giants, bringing a rare period of peace to the atrium and fairy palace.

But the frost giants and mountain giants in the north had not calmed down for long, and the fire giants in the south began to make trouble again.

Even the fire giant king Surtur personally took action. If we don’t deal with it carefully, the entire atrium will surely face a catastrophe.

But right now, he was the only one who could stop the Fire Country’s army.

But if he leaves, Hela…

Just as Lorne was hesitating, a dull and desolate horn sounded from the sky, and a beam of colorful light landed outside the Temple of Fertility.

Several armored immortal palace guards quickly came to the door and reported to Odin:

“Your Majesty, the Vanir are calling again! They have now crossed the Golden Forest and are heading towards the border of Alfheim (Elven Kingdom)!”

Odin’s face turned solemn when he heard this.

The golden forest derived from the twin sacred trees divides the Elf Kingdom into two, and beyond this is the territory of the light elves who are pro-Asa.

According to the fighting power of those light elves, as well as their constantly eroded fighting will, they are definitely no match for Warner’s army.

Once all the Elf Kingdom falls, Immortal Palace will completely lose its strategic buffer and be completely exposed to the edge of Warner’s army.

“Who is leading the charge?”

“God King Njord, Frigga the Light, Frey the God of Fertility, and the gods of the Vanir clan are all out!”

After hearing the reports from the guards, Odin nodded and turned to look at Lorne:

“It seems that I will go back to the Immortal Palace first. You can safely guard the atrium. We will talk about Hela later.”

“good!”

Lorne nodded in agreement, and then quickly gathered his men, preparing to lead an army to fight against the fire giant’s invasion.

Similarly, Odin also returned to Asgard via the Rainbow Bridge to deal with the provocation of the Vanir.

The war was in full swing, with the two blood alliance brothers, one in the south and one in the north, one at the top, sticking to their respective posts and maintaining a certain tacit understanding.

However, a few days later, a stream of light came from Asgard, the fairy palace, and quietly landed in front of the Temple of Fertility on the heather island.

The one-eyed old man wearing a gray cloak with two ravens on his shoulders wandered outside for a moment, and finally made up his mind, stepped forward and knocked on a hidden door.

Hela opened the door and looked at the old man in front of her in surprise:

“Is it you?”

“What? Don’t you even call me father?”

Odin asked with a slight smile, reaching out to touch the top of his daughter’s head.

However, Hela still subconsciously took a few steps back, showing instinctive resistance and vigilance:

“What are you doing here?”

Odin took back his hand in frustration and replied casually:

“Take you home.”

“Home? Isn’t this my home?”

Hela was stunned, a little confused,

Odin wanted to open his mouth to correct him, but was speechless for a moment.

After a moment of silence, he squeezed out a gentle smile from his old face:

“The same goes for Immortal Palace. Your mother and I have always missed you and want you to go back and visit.”

“Mother……”

Hela murmured, seeming to be moved, but soon she returned to her usual indifference, shook her head and said,

“The teacher hasn’t come back yet, I have to wait for him.”

“He is busy dealing with the Fire Giant King Surtur in the southern border and will not be able to come back for the time being.”

“The opponent is very strong?”

“Well, Surtur’s existence is older than most giants. The Mountain Giant King Sharkey is no match for him. Moreover, the [Eternal Fire] that exists in Muspelheim can also give it the power of infinite regeneration. , it’s not easy to defeat this guy,”

“Isn’t the teacher in danger?”

Hela’s face was tense, and her indifferent mood was occupied by anxiety and uneasiness.

Odin looked at his worried daughter, his one eye flickered, and then he asked in a deep voice:

“Do you want to help him?”

“think!”

Hela answered without thinking, looking at her biological father.

“Tell me, what to do?”

“Asgard has the answers you need…”

“Okay, I’ll go back with you!”

The lingering sound lingered, Odin looked down at the little hand that took the initiative to rest on his for the first time in many years, feeling incomprehensible.

“What are you doing standing there? Still not leaving?”

Hearing his daughter’s urging, Odin came back to his senses, nodded and led Hela into the light belt hanging from the Rainbow Bridge.
