Chapter 387: The Sword of Victory
On Earth, there is a very famous sword called the Sword of Victory and Contract, which is forged from the Sword of Victory in Norse mythology. And this sword of victory and contract, there is an even more famous and more well-known name, it is called the sword in the stone.
Odin stroked the scabbard of the Sword of Victory and sighed, "This Sword of Victory symbolizes glory and victory, and has accompanied me in my battles in the north and south, and today I give it to you, hoping that it will bring you victory and glory!" ”
Ling Xiao needs a long sword, a long sword for close combat, although the Obscure Sword is infinitely powerful and has a great range of attacks, but when dealing with some opponents with great physical strength and high defensive power, the power of the Obscure Sword is a little insufficient, unless he can shoot with all his strength, the Yuan Shen Imperial Sword.
And in this way, there is a certain danger to Ling Xiao's own safety, when he uses the obscure sword in close combat, Ling Xiao must also transform it into a three-foot long in order to confront the opponent, more often, Ling Xiao often uses sword qi in battle, and he always feels that something is missing, and he can't push the power of swordsmanship to the limit.
And now that the sword of victory that Odin had used was in front of him, Ling Xiao wanted to make Odin change into the ancient winter coffin of the Frost Giant, but he could not open this mouth no matter what.
Not to mention that even if Ling Xiao saved Friggia, when he asked to exchange the Sword of Victory for the Ancient Winter Coffin, would Odin be ashamed and angry and refuse his request, and now even Ling Xiao himself is not willing to give up this Sword of Victory.
Sighing softly, Ling Xiao bowed heavily, stretched out his hand to take the sword of victory, and said in a deep voice, "Thank you, Father of the Gods!" ”
As a god king, Odin is absolutely qualified and competent, what I reward you is you, I don't give it to you, you can't even worry about it, why did Odin deprive Thor of his divine power and exile him to Earth, the so-called immaturity is just one of the reasons, and more importantly, Thor has not yet ascended the throne, but he claims to be a god king everywhere, which makes Odin feel disgusted from the bottom of his heart, which is why he has been tempered later.
Just as Ling Xiao took the Sword of Victory, there was a sudden commotion outside, but it was Thor who broke in directly from the outside.
He glanced at Ling Xiao who was holding the Sword of Victory in some surprise, nodded lightly, and said hello, before asking Odin, "You imprisoned Jane?" ”
Hearing Thor say this, Ling Xiao blinked in surprise, no wonder Odin was so confident just now that as long as the dark elves came, he was sure to kill them all, now he understood that with Jane as a pawn in his hands, the dark elves could not come, and the later they came, the energy barrier of Asgard could be restored, and at that time, the hope of the dark elves would be even more slim.
However, doing so also brings a very serious problem, that is, Jane's safety problem, as the ether particles continue to absorb the life force in Jane's body, it is not good to say, if the dark elves do not wait for the attack, Jane is likely to have been drained of the life force and died, for the sake of Asgard, Odin can not do anything.
"I don't want to argue with you." Odin glanced at Ling Xiao, stepped down from the high platform, and said as he walked, "I'm going to visit your mother." ”
"I don't want to fight with you either." Thor chased after Odin and said in a deep voice, "But I want to go after Malekith." ”
"The aether is now in our possession, and Malekith will come to us." Sure enough, Odin specially imprisoned Jane, and the arrangements had already been made.
"That's right, and then he will destroy us." Thor has his own worries, in case Jane can't hold it up when Malekith attacks, and the aether particles are released, then Malekis, who regains control of the aether particles, is absolutely sure to destroy Asgard.
Of course, these are just excuses, and Thor's real concern is Jane's safety, and if that happens, it means that Jane is ......
Hearing Thor say this, Odin paused slightly, but soon he took another step and said, "Thor, you overestimate those monsters. ”
"No, I value the lives of our people more." Once Malekis comes to Asgard again, it will inevitably set off a bloody storm in Asgard again, this time fortunately there is Ling Xiao, otherwise Frigga will definitely die for it, so Thor said in a deep voice: "I will take Jane to the dark world, and then drive the enemy out of Asgard, when Malekis takes the aether out of Jane, he will be exposed and vulnerable, and I will annihilate them in one fell swoop." ”
Odin stopped again, weighed the pros and cons, turned around and said, "Once you fail, this weapon will fall into the hands of the enemy, this is too dangerous!" ”
"If we sit idly by, we will be at greater risk." Thor insisted on his opinion, spread his hands, and persuaded in a deep voice: "Father, maybe Malekith's ship has already flown above us, and we may not even know anything. ”
"Even if he had the courage to invade again, his army would inevitably be defeated by 10,000 Asgardian soldiers." Odin's attitude was unusually resolute.
He knows the situation between the enemy and me, the number of dark elves who escaped by luck after the defeat is definitely not too much, and after nearly 5,000 years of sleep, it is really hard to say how many dark elves are left, plus the earlier battle, more elites were lost, and the dark elves can still have a few percent of the troops left, if he really dares to come to Asgard, Odin will definitely give him a good look.
Thor didn't approve of Odin's attitude, he shook his head and said, "In that case, how many of us will die at their hands?" ”
"The Asgardians don't survive in this universe by hiding from battles." A hint of disappointment flashed in Odin's eyes, perhaps he was overkill, the current Thor was still far from his ideal King of Asgard, Odin couldn't help but teach him again: "We will fight until the last man falls, until the last drop of blood is shed, and we will never hide from the war." ”
"And what's the difference between you and Malekis?" Thor sighed a little disappointed, he didn't expect Odin to be so stubborn.
"The difference is, my son, I'm going to win!" After saying that, Odin left the main hall directly with the scepter of the god king, and at this time he had already made a decision in his heart, he wanted to delay the time to pass the god throne to Thor, because he was not mature enough.
Looking at Odin's departing back, Thor couldn't help but sigh and asked in a low voice, "Ling, who do you say is wrong?" ”
"It depends on whose position you're on?" Ling Xiao stepped forward, stood shoulder to shoulder with Thor, and whispered, "If I stand in your father's shoes, for Asgard, for you and your mother, everything else can be sacrificed to him. From your standpoint, the safety of Jane and the civilians of Asgard is more of your concern, but again, you must also admit that you are doing this at great risk. ”
"But there's a chance, isn't it?" Thor strode outside, believing that if his plan succeeded, it would be the best of both worlds, with Asgard not suffering any more damage and Jane not dying as a result.
"Tell me about this sword!" Ling Xiao followed closely behind Thor and asked directly in front of many guards.
Thor paused slightly, turned to look at the Sword of Victory held in Ling Xiao's hand, sighed slightly, and said: "I didn't expect my father to give you this sword, the Sword of Victory is a weapon used by my father before he became the King of the Gods, and later after getting the Eternal Spear Gunnir, my father rarely used this sword, but in the Nine Kingdoms, this sword has another name, and he is also called the Sword of Odin." ”
"Wow!" Ling Xiao couldn't help but be a little surprised, Odin really invested this time, he didn't expect him to be willing to give this sword to himself.
Looking at the look on Ling Xiao's face, Thor couldn't help but smile slightly, and said as he walked out: "Ling, don't be too happy, this sword is still very different from the sword that my father used at the beginning, and it can even be said that this is no longer the sword that my father used at the beginning!" ”
"What does that mean exactly?" Sitting in an unmanned tavern, Ling Xiao asked with curiosity.
While pouring wine for Ling Xiao, Thor explained, "My father gave this Sword of Victory to the Norse hero Sigmund after possessing the Eternal Spear, but later Sigmund was dissatisfied with his mother because of his incest with his sister Signey, thinking that he had defiled the Sword of Victory, so my father took on the form of a human and shattered the Sword of Victory in a battle......"
