Chapter 174: The End of the World

Trondheim is known as Norway's first capital and the "Gate of the North". It was the domain of the famous family of Count Rad, whose last successor was Hakonsigossen, but he died in 995 A.D. at the hands of the pirate king Olaftligwassen who had returned from England, and Olaf I began the initial unification of Norway.

In 997, Olaf I established the capital here and renamed it "Nedros". For more than 200 years, Norway had its capital here. Later, although the capital was moved to another city, the new kings of the past generations would come to the Nidros Cathedral here to hold the coronation ceremony, so the name of the city was changed to Trondheim. In Norwegian, Tron means "throne, crown" and Herm means "home", which together means the place of coronation.

Olaf II's body is buried in the church of St. Clement, built in 1o16 in the city of Nidros. When his body was re-excavated in 1o31, it was surprising to see that it was still fresh and undamaged, and soon a spring appeared in the area. Thus Olaf II was revered as a "saint" and was revered as the patron saint of Norway, with the honorific title of St. Olaf. The Nidros also soon became a pilgrimage site in medieval Norway.

Next to the central square is the largest department store in the city, many merchants are selling a toy, that is, the most distinctive mountain demon doll here, the appearance of the mountain demon doll is not very beautiful, it looks a little like Zhong Kui in the myth of Huangguo, but its heart is very kind, so it is regarded as a mascot by the Norwegians. There are also a lot of Scandinavian-style woodwork and glasswork. It is also a great gift to take back as a souvenir.

The Nidros Cathedral is built on top of the mausoleum of Olaf II, and its high green spire can be seen from a distance, but the main body of the building is actually gray. The building is made of Norwegian blue soapstone and white marble, and the architectural decoration is intricate, so it is currently considered the most magnificent Gothic cathedral in Norway, and only the Stockholm Cathedral in Sweden can be compared with it in the Nordic countries.

It is a two-tower cathedral with pointed arches and Gothic architecture, and it is majestic and imposing when viewed upwards. The length of the church is 1o1 meters and the width is 5o. The faΓ§ade to the west is towering twin towers. Above the gate are three rows of carved figures, engraved with saints, kings, and bishops.

A cross of Jesus crucifixion on Judgment Day hangs above the main entrance of the church, accompanying the saints on the left and right, and a statue of Jesus being crowned honorably at the top of the spire. On the south side is a row of sculptures of kings with solemn and elegant expressions and delicate shapes. On the north side are Gothic towers and a group of sculptures of kings.

The crowning ceremony of successive kings of Norway has been held here. The last time was in 19o5 by King Haakon VII. His crown and other symbols of royal power are still preserved in this church. The nuns on duty at the entrance of the church wore red robes, rich and kind.

After leaving Trondheim, you will enter the Arctic Circle, which Li Han has been thinking about for a long time, and will stay in the Arctic Circle for at least two days. Docked at two ports. The thousand-year-old ice is about to arrive, which makes Li Han's mood relax a lot, his cultivation has been stuck in the second layer for more than a year, although his cultivation has been improving for more than a year, but he doesn't know when he will be promoted to the third layer.

When the first layer was promoted to the second level, he was completely ignorant, and he rose inexplicably, and then pondered for a long time, probably because he inadvertently realized or the environment was suitable. It's just that this is completely unpredictable, but it is impossible to meet, counting on this, he might as well prepare the "Advanced Dan" more reliable.

It's just that Li Han forgot that there is a saying called "good things are more grinding", and just when the guests on the ship basically closed the curtains and tried to keep themselves from being affected by the polar day, the cruise ship suddenly shook violently. The violent vibration woke up the people who were already asleep or about to fall asleep, Li Han immediately jumped up from the bed, and while comforting Lydia, who was also awakened from sleep, he put on his nightgown: "You don't have to get up when you lie down, I'll go and see what's wrong." ”

Lydia was not fully awake, so she answered in a daze and fell asleep again.

Li Han pushed open the door and looked outside, there were also many guests in the corridor looking out, and the waiters who passed by in a hurry were stopped by them and asked, but they didn't know what was wrong.

So he just asked, "Where have we been?" ”

"It's an hour's flight away from Stoke Marcones." The waiter replied.

Li Han nodded, the cruise ship has been sailing along the coast of Norway, even if the ship has an accident, Norway will have time to send a ship or plane to rescue. After figuring out this section, he went straight back to his room to sleep. The violent shaking just now, the movement was so loud that he almost thought that the cruise ship had hit an iceberg.

When she returned to the house, Lydia was completely awake, and when she saw him enter the house, she asked, "What's wrong?" Cold. ”

LI Hantuo. got off his nightgown and returned to the bed, and said, "I don't know for the time being, it shouldn't be a big deal, otherwise there will be a radio announcement." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was another violent tremor, giving them the illusion that the ship was about to disintegrate. Lydia couldn't help but exclaim and asked, "Cold, the ship won't disperse, right?" ”

Li Han smiled: "It's not a wooden boat, how can it be so easy to disperse, at most there is something wrong with motivation or something." He soothed his girlfriend into his arms and gently patted her on the back, "Don't worry, with me, even if the ship really sinks, I can protect you." ”

Lydia let out a muffled "um" and rubbed her face against his chest, at which point the cruise ship shook for the third time.

Although the cabin is well insulated, Li Han can still hear the excitement outside, not everyone can face the three violent shaking of the cruise connection like Li Han and don't care. This is on the vast sea, if the boat really has an accident, even if it is not a repeat of the Titanic incident, then they have to get up and get dressed quickly so that they can board the lifeboat in time.

Lydia also lifted her head from Li Han's arms and asked, "Do you want to go out and see what's going on, it's been shaking like this, no matter how calm a person is, he can't sleep." ”

Li Han sighed helplessly, he thought of the glacier close at hand, if the ship really broke down, maybe these voyages would really end here - the cruise ship was damaged or its cruise company thought that the voyage needed to be canceled, the cruise company could cancel the rest of the trip without paying compensation.
