Chapter 1: The Final Mission

Verse 8: The Present World, Sigedlifa (I)

————————————————————————————————————————————————————

In the rest village of the Fireland Scientific Research Center, in the female officer's room on the second floor of the E Liande Brigade camp, Ning Xue brought a cup of Pharisee coffee made by herself. This specialty drink from Australia, which is creamy and covers the rum smell underneath the coffee, is only known in Germany in the northernmost state of Schleswig-Holstein, and the island of Fehmarn, which belongs to that state, is the relay station of the German air line to the Nordic countries, and where Ning Xue lived as a child. Served with a local Frisian cake, the Baltic Sea and the North Sea blend together to create a pure coastal atmosphere in St. Ursug.

"You are so beautiful and virtuous like your mother, and even the craftsmanship of making the food of your hometown is so intoxicating." St. Ulsug's affectionate words made Ning Xue not know how to respond after the greetings. The outline of my mother is blurring in my memory, because she died before I could understand it, and I didn't even leave a photograph.

"You...... Know her? ”

"Before you, she was the only concern in my heart." A trace of sadness flashed in St. Ulsug's eyes, but then it quickly calmed down, after all, there was a presence in front of him that was worthy of his comfort and cherishment.

Ning Xue didn't make a sound, waiting for her to continue.

"You know, Snow...... I am your maternal grandfather. ”

"It can't be! You look so young, you're in your thirties at most. Ning Xue's expected reaction made St. Ulsug finally make up her mind and tell her everything about herself: "My real name is 'Brigitte von Leohard[1]', born in 1910......"

"Wait, what do you say, born in ...... 1910?! Ning Xue rarely interrupted others' words, unless she couldn't understand and agree with what the other party said.

There was an eternal desolation in St. Ulsug's solemn expression, and there seemed to be some self-deprecation in his words: "Yes, I was born in 1910, and I have been on this earth for 126 years so far. In 1942, at the age of 32, I was still an ordinary man, an ordinary German soldier, serving in the 1st Battalion of the 5th Panzer Regiment of the 21st Panzer Division of the German African Panzer Army in El Alamein, Egypt. I will always remember the night of October 23, when Montgomery's army launched a general offensive against us that would change the entire format of World War II. In just ten days, the British army had broken through the defensive line jointly constructed by our division and the 15th Panzer Division. On November 4th, in the face of overwhelming Allied air force artillery support, our two divisions launched a final counterattack against the British 7th and 10th Panzer Divisions and the Indian 4th Division, which was also the last mission of my entire World War II career......"

"It's a pity that my 'No. 4 tank' was destroyed by an American-made M4 'Sherman' tank several times my own, and I couldn't wait for General Rommel's order to retreat on all fronts......" St. Ulsoug said this, paused, and while trying to recall, he also sighed, "Actually, my life should have ended at this time, at least my faithful tank will give me a metal grave." ”

"But, the goddess saved you, didn't she?" Ning Xue's tone began to become respectful, because she gradually felt that maybe all this was true.

"Not bad. All the members of the St. GSG in Cologne were German soldiers who were rescued by the goddess on the line of death in two world wars. Saint-Grillon, who served in the 5th Army under the command of Crown Prince William in 1916, the specific unit number and position are unknown, but it is known that he experienced the famous battle of the First World War known as the 'Verdun Meat Grinder', after which he was given a new life by the goddess after he should have been buried forever......"

"St. Zeverin is undoubtedly more fortunate than us, after all, he managed to live until the end of the Second World War, but he was sentenced to death by hanging with the most severe sanctions from the International Military Tribunal, although the process was a little twists and turns, but it was the same goddess who pulled him up from the abyss of death."

Ning Xue felt a little uneasy and a little unhappy after listening to the experiences of St. Grellon and St. Zeverin: "What is the purpose of the so-called 'goddess' in your mouth, the so-called 'save' of these people who should have been punished by fate in the German war of aggression?" ”

St. Ulsug was aware of Ning Xue's change in attitude, and understood her concerns: "I can't disclose this yet. But I assure you that what the Goddess has done is completely different from the position of fascism and Nazi Germany, and will not destroy the pattern and peace of the world today. The aim is to make some necessary preparations for possible great changes in the future. ”

Knowing that she shouldn't continue to ask, Ning Xue talked about the most critical core of all the questions after receiving the assurance that St. Ursug was almost promised: "Even if the goddess can bring the dead back to life, why are you alive until now!" According to this, didn't the 'goddess of fate' herself live longer? ”

"Life Eternal Technology."

What St. Ursoug said later was subverting Ning Xue's perception of the laws of the world: "As early as 1871, when Germany was unified, this mystery was given an important mission, and I don't know what the specific content is, I only know that the goddess is the only existence that has the relevant information now, of course, except for another person who has evaporated from the world and doesn't know whether he is dead or alive......" Ning Xue's thinking reacted very quickly, and instantly thought of possible characters: "'The father of the spatial effect' Mr. Ketrak? ”

While surprised by Ning Xue's cleverness, St. Ursug was even more pleased: "You are as smart as your mother!" One sentence brought Ning Xue back to the original topic and doubts, and it is also the question he is most concerned about now: St. Ursug, this historical witness who should not exist in this world, is really his grandfather?

"Don't worry, kid. I will tell you all about the past century or so. St. Ursug stroked Ning Xue's face, and the voice of his heart for a hundred years was now confided in front of the person he valued most......

A long time passed, and the sensor door finally opened.

From the beginning of the conversation between the two to the present, Rolfes, who has always been at ease, has been anxiously waiting at the door, and when St. Ulsug saw this, he said considerately: "Today's matter, I don't mind if you tell the people close to you." ”

Seeing St. Ulsug leave with a dessert drink, he felt that his back didn't seem to be as gloomy and lifeless as before, but the tear stains between Ning Xue's cheeks still startled Rolfes, and he hurriedly pulled her in front of him, and asked sharply: "What's wrong with that guy?!" ”

"No, no......" Ning Xue wiped the remaining tears from the corners of her eyes, and tried to smile as she explained, "I'm happy." In addition to you, there is one more relative. ”

Rolfes understood when he heard this, and it seemed that everything was just as Colonel Langelof had judged before, that St. Ulsug's love for Ning Xue was out of the care of his elders. But the current appearance of good sisters is really unbearable: "Crying and laughing, ashamed to death!" Hurry up and wash your face and tell me everything. ”

"Yes. But in a moment I would like to visit St. Zeverin first. Ning Xue nodded.

Although Rolfes felt that there was no need, and Saint Zeverin's serious injury was just the retribution he had received for his cruel actions in the past, he still followed Ning Xue's meaning: "No problem." However, aren't you worried about whether those Chinese can successfully escape from God's factory? ”

"St. Ursug...... The seniors promised to help them get out of trouble when necessary. Ning Xue hadn't found a suitable title yet, so she had to temporarily use the word "senior" to show respect for her grandfather. "Ho, this reinforcement is really weighty!" Rolfes could only smile at this.

Back in the single room of the Commander of St. GSG in Cologne, St. Ulsug gently rested the cake on the table and saved it for a cup of coffee in his hand. However, the rich aroma of the rum at the bottom seems to be mixed with the taste of a raw person......

St. Ursug put down his cup, and the beeping "Aegis" gloves issued the most direct warning to the uninvited: "Show up, if you don't want to be crushed by me." ”

"It is worthy of the number one killing machine under the command of the goddess - Leohard[2], as the name suggests, the lion-like sense of smell can even capture the breath of the seat, it is really not simple." The tone is somewhat respectful, but the pleasant female voice that appears out of thin air is more of a gap in status.

The space in front of the window has changed, but it is not the warping phenomenon that St. Ulsug is familiar with. If you think about it, the smell and sound are already there, and there is only one explanation for the fact that the figure has not been found: it is not visible to the naked eye.

The reflection of light in the area returned to normal, and the visitor gradually revealed the mysterious shape wrapped in his long white cloak: the head and face were mostly covered by the hood, revealing only the fiery red eyes, decorated with a pair of delicate eyes, and the willow leaf eyebrows were inlaid with red crystals, not like a simple ornament, like a light ice and snow skin, just like the glorious temperament that naturally emanated from her body - noble and holy.

The opponent's ultra-modern cloak can actually exert the stealth function to the point of real blindness? It's incredible, but that's not what St. Urstoog is concerned about at the moment: "Who are you and why do you know my real name!" ”

"This is the Valkyrie[3] of Carl Orpie, Sigdelifa[4], who presides over the Sanctuary of Santa Cecilia[5] and is responsible for 'Crime and Punishment.'"

What the?! St. Ursug has been following the "Goddess of Fate" for nearly a century and has never heard of such a person! But in any case, it is unforgivable blasphemy to dare to call the goddess by her name......

Sigdelifa sensed the murderous aura, but only smiled coldly: "Leohard, put away your three-legged cat tricks." In the eyes of the world, you are a ferocious beast, but in the eyes of this seat, you are nothing! ”

The sacred and oppressive words resounded in the limited confined space around them, vibrating all living and dead things back and forth! St. Ursug's suddenly wavering faith was completely destroyed by the fiery eyes of Sigdelipha, and only the most primitive fear he had ever felt in his life remained: the eyes that burst with blood-red light...... Could it be that there really is a god in this world?

St. Ursug's supreme reverence for the "goddess of fate" is fundamentally derived from the supreme scientific and technological power she possesses, and those theories and techniques that are now unattainable can always find reasonable explanations in the dictionary of the goddess. But the appearance of Higdalifa even changed the consistent principle of defining gods by science in his heart...... However, even if the other party is a martial god, there is no reason for him to retreat, because - that is not the style of Cologne Saint GSG!

With a terrifying devastating roar like a lion's roar, the goddess's number one killing machine, which had left all the reserves to fight with all its might, had rushed to the so-called "Valkyrie" in an instant, stretching out its deadly left claw that was enough to shatter her skull...... At this moment, there are only two words in the decisive green eyes of the Irish night pupil, and that is - god-killing! The characteristic of St. Ursug's exclusive power exoskeleton is speed, which further strengthens his reaction nerves that are far beyond ordinary people due to his genetic advantages, coupled with the indestructible "Aegis" glove with the power of space squeezing, if it is "fast", no one can beat it! But......

Sigdriffa disappeared in an instant.

It's really gone, it's not a visual trick! St. Ulsug's empty left arm had not yet been retracted, and the exoskeleton around his body had suddenly stopped working, and the locked joints had become the most effective shackles to imprison his master. An ethereal voice sounded behind him, and St. Ulsug, who was completely unable to move his limbs at the moment, could only reluctantly turn his head, and with a trace of indignation, he could bear the contempt of Sigedri Farah.

"Hmph...... 'Strong', 'Swift', 'Shadow', the power exoskeleton equipped by the commander of the Cologne St. GSG, and the 'Aegis' in your hand are all from the creation and favor of this seat, what qualifications do you have...... Get an axe in front of the 'Giver'?! ”

Higdalifa ripped off his cloak and threw it into the air, the red combat tights lined with it interpreted sexy and graceful to the extreme, and the four strands of the front and back lengthened shoulders made it look more like a military uniform, which did not belong to the E United German Brigade or any country. The suit is made of a special material, a combination of fabric and a certain soft metal, with no shoulders, no logos, and no extra text. The exterior is equipped with silver power bones, and the shiny metal texture seems to have its own holy light, which is completely different from that of St. Grelon, St. Ulsug, and St. Zeverin, breaking the pitch-black death of the whole body, and more close to every part, even if it is a finger and a bone joint, it is protected. Three sensor lines behind each ear on each side of the ear penetrate into the skin like blue blood vessels, receive brain waves and conduct them to the central processing unit, and support two control modes: "The name of this exoskeleton is 'Danny Bullow[6]', and it can freely control space. No matter how fast you are or how strong your strength is, it is useless in the face of dimensional transfer and absolute barriers! ”

I didn't expect the other party to have such a special ability, and he is also the creator of many high-tech weapons and equipment in the team? St. Ulsug began to feel guilty for his reckless attack, and finally believed that the other party was indeed a higher being under the command of the "goddess of fate" than himself, and could not be disobeyed: "Please...... Forgive me for my rudeness. ”

The red light of the crystals between the foreheads of Sigdlifa flashed, and the eyes immediately returned to their normal state, and the dormant lock of the "Swift" exoskeleton was lifted. St. Ulsug regained control of his body and immediately fell to one knee and waited for the Valkyrie's instructions.

"Very good, the strongest iron-blooded warrior who has lost his way." Sigdelifa removed the badge hanging from his waist and presented it to St. Ulsug, a familiar motif, but made of an unfamiliar material—a golden cornflower, the color of the German national flower, which did not exist.

"Passing on the will of the 'Goddess of Fate', Leohard, has violated the highest secrecy regulations of the Holy GSG in Cologne, ordering him to terminate all missions and immediately return to the Holy Land Headquarters to await trial and sanctions."

Since he met Ning Xue, he knew that he would eventually pay the price, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly. St. Ursug's long-cherished wish had been fulfilled, and he was willing to accept the punishment: "Do as the Goddess commands......" After the order was delivered, the other party still did not get up, and Sigdelifa saw that he still had something to say: "Why, haven't your lifelong worries and expectations been satisfied?" ”

"Yes. But that's my sin after all, and I ask the goddess not to be angry with Snow. In addition, I promised her to help the Chinese of God's Factory leave safely, and I hope that you will give me some time to fulfill my promise. ”

St. Ulsug's words caused Sigdelifa to fall into a brief silence.

Turning around and picking up the cloak on the ground, the Valkyrie re-draped it neatly, covering her long dark brown hair again, and ...... The netherworld blue lips were the same as those of Cologne St. GSG: "Leohard, there are some things that you don't have the right to change, not only you, but even this seat can't influence the established trajectory. However, this seat can give you an answer on behalf of the 'goddess of fate', and will not embarrass Ning Xue, as for the Chinese she cares about, no matter what the circumstances, ensuring the continuation of his life is the only mission of this seat in this world, and you don't need to worry. ”

The origin of Sigdrid's account was incomprehensible to St. Ulsug. However, as long as Ning Xue is not harmed and spends a hundred years of long life on her own, there are no other unnecessary and superfluous curiosities, no matter what the truth of the matter is, as always, trust the goddess's Shengming decision, it is enough.

St. Ulsug walked straight into "Danibulo" and opened the door to the space leading to the headquarters of the Holy Land, without a trace of regret. Sigedrifa's thoughtful gaze rested on the forgotten piece of Frisian cake on the table.

In my memory, this dim sum in the northernmost state of the neighboring country used to be my favorite, but unfortunately, after thousands of years of vicissitudes, the taste of happiness has long been lost. Now that it is in the mouth again, the delicate and silky texture bordering on the hometown is still worth tasting.

At this moment, the sweet sunshine of South Jutland seems to be right in front of you. Beaches, forests, land, country...... The holly withered golden after breaking away from its host, and Margaret was no longer a maiden flower. Gone for so long that the Scandinavian white swan did not dare to look back.

Born in the happiest country on earth[7], but wandered in the saddest companion of time and space.

The story of Higedlifa, which had already ended, will now begin again.

————————————————————————————————————————————————————

[1] Brigitte von Leonhard – Brigit.Von.Leonhard

[2] Leohard: Literally translated as "lion" in German.

[3] Valkyrie: "Valkyrie, Valkyrja, Walkuere, Valkyrien, Walkyren, Walachuriun, Totenwaehlerin", originally meaning "corpse eater", but gradually evolved into "the woman who chooses the dead", "the god of death who guides the heroic spirit", and some people also give her the image of "the dream lover who appears in front of the hero". In Norse and Germanic mythology, Odin's handmaidens, also known as the "Seekers of the Heroes", rode horses to patrol with the ghosts of the "wild hunt" or flew into the battlefield as swans to collect fallen warriors for Valhalla. Spiritually speaking, Valkyrie belongs to the goddess of fertility and fate in the general sense of Norse mythology, and there is more than one, and the "God of Victory" Sigdelifa is one of them. Legend has it that Valkyries were the daughters of earthly kings, Odin herself, or virgin warriors who swore to serve the gods and were chosen to ascend to heaven. They give beautiful kisses to the dead on the battlefield and lead them to Valhalla. The purpose of this is to expand the forces of the gods to meet the needs of the battlefield before the twilight of the gods.

[4] Sigrdrifa

[5] Sanctuary of St. Cecilia – St. Cäcilien

[6] Dannebrog: "Dannebrog", a Danish word meaning "Danish flag" or "red flag". The Danish flag is the oldest and oldest of the flags still in use today, and is known as the "Danish Power". It is rectangular in shape, with a red flag and a white cross on the flag, slightly to the left.

[7] Happiest country: In 2012, the United Nations released the first happiness index report at the Happiness Index Discussion Conference in Bhutan, covering 156 countries and regions around the world from 2005 to 2011. The reporting criteria include nine areas: education, health, environment, management, time, cultural diversity and inclusion, community vitality, inner well-being, and standard of living. According to the published report, Denmark has become the happiest country in the world. In Old High German, "Dan" means "beach, forest" and "wheat" means "land, country".
