Chapter 18: The Revelation of the Fire Spirits

At the same time, Meng who was hiding in the endless deep sea naturally didn't know this, let alone that the strongest god of war in the heavenly realm was already thundering at this moment, and he was gritting his teeth to the extreme.

For him, although he can think according to the thinking pattern of his own human being, because of the lack of memory of his own human life, he seriously lacks a sense of identity with his human identity, and is accustomed to eating and sleeping and eating when he wakes up, without any ambition and desire, at best, he is just a beast with a human thinking mode. For Meng, whether it is the act of eating the sun or devouring the sun goddess Suer, it is just his own normal eating, simple and pure, without any malice.

Of course...... For those mortals who no longer have the sun shining on the earth at this moment, and are plunging into endless darkness and despair, it is natural to see whether the serpent's casual actions are evil or not.

However, for Meng, he obviously has no interest in dealing with those mortals, he doesn't care about these things, but...... Sometimes, even if you don't want to deal with something, it will still have something to do with you in the end.

......

Midgard, in the south, in the middle of an unknown mountain village.

The sky was pitch black, only the moon and a few stars, and the sparse moonlight shone on this small mountain village, but it could only make this sparsely populated village seem more and more sad, only one house still revealed a little firelight, and under the flickering firelight, a large number of vague figures could be faintly seen in the house.

In this dimly lit room, the fire was crackling, and a group of men and women, young and old, sat around the fire, the atmosphere was extraordinarily quiet, everyone held their breath, did not dare to gasp for breath, and their eyes were firmly fixed on the body of the elderly grandmother who was closest to the fire.

“'la-call......”

Surrounded by the crowd, the old woman sat in front of the fire, facing the fire in front of her, her arms spread out, as if she was hugging the fire in front of her, and her face was painted with a variety of colorful paints of strange tattoos, her expression was particularly solemn and solemn, and her mouth continued to recite all kinds of complex and difficult words, some similar to the Nordic language, but not exactly the same, as if she was communicating with someone, and from time to time she sprinkled some special powder into the fire, making the fire more vigorous.

The burning fire, the crowd of people sitting around, the weird old woman, everything is weird to the extreme.

And with the old woman's recitation, in front of the old woman, the fire that was originally burning quietly seemed to be alive, with the old woman's complex words and tones began to sway restlessly, the flame burned bigger and bigger, and the flames, which were originally less than half a person high, swelled wildly, and almost instantly swelled into a huge fireball several people high in front of the old woman, almost burning to the roof.

With the exclamations and fears of the surrounding crowd, under the gaze of everyone, the flames transformed into an illusory form vaguely resembling a human form, and at the same time, the old woman's chanting became more and more rapid and high-pitched, and her body suddenly began to shake as if it was convulsed, as if something was attached to her body, so her body was out of control.

Finally, when the old woman's tone reached the limit and the flame burned to the limit, suddenly, the old woman stopped her movements and chanting......

The flame gradually returned to its original state again, as always, it was just a small flame, burning quietly on the fire, all the previous things, as if it was just an illusion, but after singing, the old woman who was exhausted and seemed to have lost her strength was immediately weak, if it weren't for the eyes of the people around her to quickly support her, she would definitely crash directly into the fire.

Even so, she was out of breath and couldn't say a word, but someone had already handed her a bowl of water to quench her thirst.

Everyone looked at each other, and they didn't know what to say.

"Prophet, is there any revelation from the gods?"

After hesitating for a long time, someone asked in awe at the prophetess who was slowly resting.

The revelation of the gods is undoubtedly a big deal, and for these Norse people who are not afraid of anything, only the gods can make them a little afraid.

It was as if he had opened a conversation, and then someone in the crowd said worriedly.

"It's seven moons up, but the sun hasn't appeared...... Has the gods forsaken us......"

"Shut up, you're blaspheming!"

A stern voice scolded.

As a result, some of the original whispers stopped in awe.

It is no wonder that since the seven moons had risen, the sky had changed, and then the sun had disappeared, and the moon had appeared in the sky for the seventh time, but the sun had never appeared again, and the whole world was plunged into darkness.

The absence of the sun means that crops cannot grow, it is difficult to go out to sea to fish, and all kinds of habitual life are suddenly facing a survival dilemma.

So, in this unsettling situation, human beings everywhere are constantly trying to find a way to solve it, and in this small village, all they can rely on is the old woman who is regarded as a prophetess and prophet, hoping to seek revelation from the gods through the mysterious magic of the prophetess.

However, in the face of everyone's expectations, the elderly prophetess just looked around at everyone and shook her head.

"Gods...... No revelation came. ”

"Hum~"

In an instant, it was as if a pot had exploded, and everyone turned their heads one after another, shocked, disappointed, panicked, and uneasy...... All kinds of emotions spread among the crowd.

In this era ruled by the gods, facing such a situation without the guidance of the gods, for these mortals, they simply do not know how to deal with it.

"However, the fire spirits have given me some inspiration. ”

But then, the words that came out of the prophetess succeeded in suppressing the cacophony of voices.

A sturdy man looked at the prophetess in front of him in surprise, and then asked cautiously:

"What do you mean ......"

As if she had been exhausted from the previous decree, the old prophetess closed her eyes and whispered.

"The fire elf answered my call, and it told me something......"

The prophetess slowly opened her eyes, her eyes filled with fear and fear.

"A powerful force...... unimaginable, incredibly powerful...... Greedy and tyrannical, incomparably cruel, incomparably evil, on the day the sun disappeared, that incredibly powerful force completely swallowed the sun into its belly, so it ...... This world will usher in an era without the sun. ”
