Chapter 565: Jörmungad
Thor in the Marvel world is actually artistically glorified, and the mythical Thor is as Consus said, very brutal.
The legend about Thor can be summed up in one sentence.
I'm not happy, so hammer you, hammer you to death, eat and sleep hammer giants.
It is rumored that Thor is a good-natured deity in his normal state, but once provoked, he will enter a state of war frenzy as if he had lost his mind, and his temperament is as violent as thunder and uncontrollable.
The giants of Norse mythology are the eternal enemies of Asgard, and the giants who died at the hands of Thor are said to be able to circle the walls of Asgard.
Before Ragnarok, much of Norse mythology was devoted to Odin's playful work, Thor's hammering giants, and Loki's death.
The preliminary conclusion came that Lu Xiao and others, who had rested for a while and returned to the road, acted more cautiously.
Encountering three mountain monsters at one time before, Lu Xiao thought that mountain monsters in this world were very common.
But on the next journey to the Lake of the Nine Realms, Lu Xiao and the others only encountered a lone mountain monster, and Yongzhen killed it alone.
Instead, it was an undead creature that Lu Xiao vaguely remembered as being called ghouls, zombies in Norse mythology.
The area of the Lake of the Nine Realms was very large, and when I reached the top of a small hill closest to the lake, I could finally see more details without the clairvoyance Eijin and Tamamo.
I don't know if something happened to Kui Bald's side, when Lu Xiao and his party walked in a straight line to the lake, the water level in the lake had not yet dropped.
From above, only a few statues protruding from the surface of the Lake of the Nine Realms can be seen, including the upper body of a bearded man holding a war hammer.
"Thor."
Lu Xiao's tone was a little weird, "Maybe you will need to fight him in the future, so be mentally prepared in advance." ’
There was no underwater situation on the lake covered with dense fog, and Lu Xiao and his party were a little worried.
As hairy creatures, Tamamo and Fenrir instinctively hate water and say that they are reluctant to go into the lake by boat.
"No way, I'd better go."
Lu Xiao lifted himself up with the power of the wind, lowered his head and said to Yongzhen below: "You guys prepare for battle first, depending on the situation, we may fight with some big guy hiding in the lake." ”
The legendary Jörmungadr who surrounds the world can die with the thunder god Thor in mythology, and its strength should not be underestimated.
And the World Snake itself has no divine power, and fighting it is meaningless for Lu Xiao, so it is better to avoid it as much as possible.
"Huh~"
Seeing Lu Xiao squirm across the lake, the unstable flight trajectory made Yongzhen and Yuzao sweat for him, as if they would fall headlong into the lake at any time.
In reality, the situation is not so dangerous.
The amorphous wind is indeed difficult to control, but even if it falls from the sky, Lu Xiao can open the space passage in time to return to the sky.
To put it simply, he has countless opportunities for trial and error, and he doesn't have to worry about falling into the lake and being eaten by snakes.
There are now only two statues exposed above the lake of the Nine Realms, and in addition to Thor, there is also a towering statue of a man with a gun.
"Guns? Gungnir, so to speak, that this statue is Odin's? ”
It is suspected that someone wrote a row of eye-catching rune characters on the chest of the suspected Odin statue, and with Lu Xiao's attainments in rune runes, it is not difficult to understand the meaning of this sentence.
"Offer your weapons to the center of the water and awaken the cradle of the world once again."
"Weapon ......"
Lu Xiao, who was floating in the air, pulled out the Xuanyuan Sword and thought about it for a moment: "...... Isn't it too extravagant? ”
Since Yongzhen obtained the Ulu Tai Knife, she no longer needed the Great Tai Dao of the appropriate length to immortal slash, so this weapon returned to Lu Xiao's personal space.
Retracting the Xuanyuan Sword, Lu Xiao threw the immortal slash into the lake.
"Puff~"
After the weapon fell into the water, there was no reaction for a while, and after about ten seconds, the entire lake suddenly began to roll up huge waves, and Lu Xiao urgently raised the height to avoid the waves that slapped over.
Eijin and Tamamo stood at the top of a small hill as the clouds on the surface of the lake gradually dissipated, and a giant long creature covered in hard scales emerged from the lake.
In a beautiful fairytale-like courtyard near the Lake of the Nine Realms, Kratos suddenly felt the ground tremble in the hut in the courtyard.
Atreus was standing with a young woman dressed as a witch, nervously looking at a wounded boar with demonic stripes on its body.
The witch casts a spell that extracts the essence of plants from the materials stacked next to it, and uses special techniques to fuse these materials together.
The tremor of the ground made Atreus's feet unstable, and the witch's face sank slightly, but she did not stop her movements, and steadily applied the fused medicine to the wound of the demon pig.
Kratos asked solemnly, "What's the situation?" ”
After completing the treatment, the witch frowned and said, "It should be a vibration from the Lake of the Nine Realms, and someone woke up the big guy in the lake?" ”
At the same time, a huge scarlet vertical pupil rose from the water and looked at Lu Xiao with scrutinizing eyes.
As the vertical pupils gradually moved away, the huge snake head finally appeared in Lu Xiao's field of vision.
"Phew!"
The giant snake spat out the immortal slash from its mouth and flicked it with its tongue towards Lu Xiao's location.
"Smack~"
Raising his hand to catch the knife, Lu Xiao felt a hint of strangeness, but now there was no time for him to check it carefully.
“%*@……”
The snake of the world opened its mouth to say a series of unintelligible words, and Lu Xiao looked at each other in confusion.
'What language is this?' Ancient Norse? ’
Jörmungad had no ill will towards Lu Xiao, and it was also used to humans not understanding their own words, so after finishing speaking, they turned their heads around and looked in other directions.
As part of the body of the Serpent of the World surfaced, the height of the lake dropped significantly, revealing the true face of the shrine buried beneath the water's surface.
From above, several strangely shaped towers surround the Lake of the Nine Realms, and the bridge leading to the Temple of Tyre is in front of one of the towers, slightly misoriented.
"Da~"
When Lu Xiao landed in front of the gate of the temple, the temple that had been buried in the lake before was still leaking everywhere, and there were not many fish struggling desperately after leaving the water on the bridge in front of the temple.
Open the portal to pick up Yongzhen, Tamamo, and Fenrir, and the group stand in front of the temple gate silently waiting for the remaining water to drain away.
Fenrir happily ran on the bridge to pick up leaks, and almost all the fish went into its stomach.
"Huh?"
Lu Xiao suddenly felt a faint spatial fluctuation flashing nearby, and immediately turned around and looked at the bridge.
A short, blue-skinned man appeared behind them at some point, followed by a strange camel beast with a bird's head and a heavy-looking bag.
"! I didn't expect someone to arrive before me, it's really weird. ”
A mouth full of dirty words spurted out of the blue-skinned man's mouth, he ignored the gaze of Lu Xiao and the others, swaggered past them, and pushed open the door of the Temple of Tyre with difficulty, ignoring the water still dripping above.
"Hey! Weirdos, let's say first, I discovered this temple first, don't come and rob me! ”
"I'm going to open a blacksmith here, and you can come to me if you need it."
"As long as you bring your own materials, as a reward for the opening, I can build things for you for free."
