Chapter 574: Mimir's Analysis
Tamamo is a great demon in Japanese mythology and legend, in addition to the yin and yang spells she learned from the onmyoji, she has learned a lot of oriental magic schools in her long life, and is proficient in various spells.
The method used by Tamamo is completely different from Freya in the original story, but the effect can be said to be the same.
"Poof!"
Mimir's lifeless head suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of dark green herbal juice, and even his nose involuntarily spewed out this unpleasant liquid.
The pink spiritual power that surrounded the skull took the opportunity to pour into it, and it took a while for the dazed Mimir to come to his senses.
"Oh! The smell is unforgettable, worse than the dwarven footwash! ”
Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows: "Have you ever tasted the dwarf's footwashing water?" ”
Mimir quipped, "Who knows, maybe it was some drunken madness, don't let me think about it." ”
"Straight to the point."
Lu Xiao lifted Mimir's head and asked, "For some reason, I need to absorb the divine power of the gods, both the Asaph Protoss and the Warner Protoss, do you have any suggestions?" ”
"Absorb divine power?"
Mimir spat out the last bit of herbal juice: "Phew! Ahem~ Friend, I won't ask you why, did you originally make a plan? ”
"Yes, I was planning to go to the Nine Realms to find the fallen Valkyrie, but unfortunately I was blocked by Badr at the first stop in Alfheim."
"Badr? Alfheim? ”
Mimir had a puzzled look on his face: "It's strange, as far as I know, both the light elves and the dark elves are very disgusted with Badr. ”
"The elves have always revered the eternal light of their clan, and they are very uninterested in Badr who has been given the title of god of light, and Badr usually does not go to Alfheim to be looked down upon."
"Friends ......"
"Call me Lu Xiao."
"Okay, Lu Xiao."
Mimir asked with a solemn expression, "Is there anything unusual about Yalfheim other than Badr?" ”
Lu Xiao spread his hands helplessly: "We just walked out of the country teleportation room and were caught by Badr, and we didn't explore deeply at all. ”
"But...... It does seem a little weird. ”
Yongzhen, who was standing aside and listening, took over and said, "The sky in Alfheim is very dark, like dusk and dawn. ”
"Dim ......"
Mimir pondered for a moment: "...... I don't know what the hell Badr is up to, but I'm sure there's something wrong with Alfheim. ”
"Illuminated by the light of eternity, Alfheim is the brightest realm of the Nine Realms, maintaining a state of polar day almost all year round."
"There's only one chance that Alfheim will have a dim sky, and that's if the dark elves have seized control of the Eternal Light, but that doesn't make sense."
Tamamo asked puzzledly, "What common sense?" Isn't it natural for the two races to snatch control of the Eternal Light, and both are fighting for their own survival. ”
"That's right, the fight itself is not surprising, the problem is in the time cycle."
Mimir explained, "The Dark Elves and the Light Elves have been at war for countless years, and they have been determined to wage war every hundred years to seize control of the Eternal Light. ”
"It took 15 years for the Light Elves to reclaim the Eternal Light from the Dark Elves, and it stands to reason that the Dark Elves who have not yet recovered will not rush to launch an offensive so quickly, there must be something wrong with this."
"Considering that Badr appeared in Yalfheim...... Lu Xiao, I'm afraid there is Odin's plan behind this. ”
"Odin...... King of the gods. ”
Lu Xiao frowned and rubbed her eyebrows: "I don't want to confront Odin now, I don't know enough about the power and power of the gods." ”
"I'm in favor of taking things step by step."
Mimir agreed, "It's a good idea to test the fallen Valkyries, and maybe free their souls from Odin's corrupting curse." ”
"You should have noticed more and more ghouls lately, right?"
Yongzhen nodded and asked, "That's right, is this related to the Valkyrie?" ”
"Absolutely."
"Now Helheim has no master, and the Valkyrie is responsible for guiding the souls of the dead, some of them are sent to Helheim, some of them are ascended to Valhalla, and some of the worthless souls are directly erased."
Mimir saw the displeasure in Yongzhen's eyes, and patiently explained to her, "Ma'am, this is also something that cannot be helped. ”
"Before the full-time management of the master, Helheim's automatic processing power has a limit, once the soul entering the underworld exceeds the critical point......"
Yuzao suddenly hammered his palm: "Will wander in the Nine Realms and become a ghoul who attacks the living?" ”
"Correct."
Mimir said with some confusion: "I still don't understand why Odin corrupted and refrigerated the Valkyries. ”
"Although Odin is insidious and cruel, I think he is at least a god with a big picture and common sense."
"Refrigerating the Valkyrie will only cause the life and death of the Nine Realms to be out of balance, which will not help his rule in any way."
Lu Xiao shrugged his shoulders and said, "Maybe he corrupted the Valkyries just so that they could completely obey his orders, and the follow-up development even Odin himself didn't expect." ”
Mimir sighed, "Maybe Odin abolished her direct troops out of precaution against Freya. ”
"Wait a minute."
Tamamo tilted her head and asked suspiciously, "What is the relationship between Freya and the Valkyrie?" ”
"Oh~ beautiful young lady, don't you know yet?"
Mimir loves to solve people's questions, not to mention that the person who asks questions is a stunning beauty.
"Freya was the queen of the Valkyries before she was stripped of the warrior's soul by Odin, and all Valkyries will only act according to her orders, and Odin cannot overstep her command."
"After the breakdown of Odin and Freya's relationship, the relationship between the Valkyries and the God-King was also strained, and they even moved out of Valhalla in Asgard to establish a new foothold in Midgard."
"I remember it was called ...... Council of Valkyries? ”
In fact, Valkyries are much more than those mentioned in the God of War 4 game, this is a special force of elite female warriors, commanded by Freya.
Lu Xiao doesn't know the side plot of God of War 4 very well, but those fallen Valkyries don't seem to take the initiative to go out to attack everyone, and will only react to intruders who are close to a certain distance.
Mimir was silent for a moment after learning this information: "I probably know what's going on. ”
"Someone must have sealed the Valkyries before they were completely corrupted, maybe ......"
"No, there's no point in continuing to speculate."
Mimir said to Lu Xiao and the others encouragingly: "It is a good idea to absorb divine power through the Valkyrie, just so that they can be freed from their corrupted bodies, and we can also learn the truth from the Valkyrie's mouth, and try to restore the balance between life and death." ”
Lu Xiao threw Mimir's head on Fenrir's back, and Yuzao used a spell to temporarily bind him to Fenrir, so that Mimir could see the scene ahead, so that he could make timely prompts in times of crisis.
"Mimir, where do you suggest going first?"
Mimir thought for a moment: "Since you are worried that Badr is still in Alfheim, then go to the place where the Asaph Protoss is unlikely to go first. ”
"My suggestion, go to the Land of Fire first, Musberheim."
