Chapter XVII: Such Gods
0017
"If you want to get out of this phantom world, except for the souls of all the indigenous dead in this phantom world, you can only eliminate regrets and make yourself blind, there is no third way. Slutgelmir's predecessors tried to absorb the power of the entire world, but the cornerstone of this world was the souls of those dead Norse gods, and there were too many of them, so his attempt failed, and the world was reset again. ”
"I'm not the third to enter this world, and Sludgermir's predecessors aren't the first, and there are many others who have come in, tried, and tried, but they either chose to rest in peace and reincarnate on their own, or they were washed away by countless resets and long passages of time and lost themselves, becoming part of the many lost souls in this world."
"So, if you don't want to rest now, you can only choose to stop Ragnarok, let the gods survive the collapse and reset of the world, so as to know the truth and turn a blind eye, but if you choose this path, you have to be careful, the flame giant of Muspelheim, Surter, we think that the primordial beings of this world may also be a sober being, wanting to rule this phantom world for eternity."
And this kind of operation, rest in peace? Lost? Eternal reign? This is not what I want, I just want to go back to the real world to see if my parents are okay, and I want to make up for them and be filial to them, otherwise my thoughts will not be clear. So, I wouldn't choose to stay and rest in peace, breaking the fate of Ragnarok, right? I was already doing it, and now it's just making me more motivated.
Recalling the conversation between Faphnir and himself a few days ago, Chen Tingzhi was absent-minded even at the victory of the war of the Asa Protoss and the joint celebration banquet of the new members, but he showed no mercy in his lower mouth, no matter what he ate, he threw it all into his mouth, chewed and swallowed it, and then continued to stuff his mouth with food.
At the current banquet, there are not only the Aesir gods, but also the Warner gods, even the sun goddess Sur and the moon goddess Mani, who fly all over the sky every day, also take the time to attend the banquet, as well as their father Mondifari, and some other Mao gods who they don't know. Only then did Chen Tingzhi understand that the population of the Aesir Protoss was actually quite a lot, although it was still much less than that of the Warner Protoss Frost Giant.
And in the creation war with the gods of the progenitor giants and the war of the gods with the Warner gods, many Aesir gods with insufficient combat power have died, so Odin ordered the Aesir gods who are not strong enough to go to the battlefield, if it wasn't for Odin's timely return in time when the frost giants invaded the war, it is estimated that they will also play, and the Aesir gods will have to reduce their personnel again.
"God, there is an unnamed craftsman outside the door who says he has received our oracle and claims that he can take on the work, but he has a request," Heimdall suddenly walked in from outside the main hall of the Golden Palace of the banquet, "he wants to be rewarded with Sur, the goddess of the sun, Mani, the goddess of the moon, and Freya, the goddess of love and beauty. ”
Loki, who was already completely drunk, laughed: "Okay, let him complete this wall around Asgard in 6 months, except for his own horse, Hiccup...... No one can help him. ”
The gods were overjoyed when they heard the news, and Odin laughed and told Heimdall to go out and inform the craftsman of their reply, and tell him that he could start work tomorrow.
Chen Tingzhi knew that this so-called nameless craftsman was actually a frost giant illusion, with a god horse Swadir Farley, so he could complete the wall around Asgard within 6 months, and in the original myth, it was Loki who turned into a mare to seduce Swadir Farly, and finally gave birth to Odin's mount, the eight-legged horse Slepnir, which caused the frost giant to not be completed on time, and then showed his original form and scolded the Asa gods, and was killed by Thor with a hammer.
Thinking of this, Nicholas Chen suddenly came back to his senses, Odin was actually not laughing at the craftsman's indiscretion, according to Faphnir, he was already a half-awake person who knew the history of Ragnarok before and after, so he should be laughing at the dilemma after Loki and the fact that his BMW was about to arrive.
It seems that if you don't have to worry about this matter, you will be fine, and in the end, you just need to make up for it and kill the frost giant with a hammer. Chen Tingzhi also settled down and continued to eat and drink.
As for the negative impact revealed in this incident, such as Loki's intemperance and the collective treachery of the gods, Nicholas Chen said that he was powerless.
The key to this event was not the birth of the wall and the magical pact made by the gods, but Odin's acquisition of his own mount, the eight-legged steed Slepnir.
And Chen Tingzhi thinks that Odin has basically seen the overall situation, although he has not been noticed by Odin as an outlier, but once he affects this incident and causes the eight-legged horse Lace Nir to not speak, then he will definitely be targeted by Odin, thinking that he is a resistance to Odin to stop Ragnarok.
Then when the time comes, Nicholas Chen will either be expelled by Odin or secretly targeted by Odin, no matter what, it will increase the difficulty of blocking Ragnarok.
After all, Odin didn't know, maybe it was his own so-called actions to block the arrival of Ragnarok that made him push the Aesir Protoss into the abyss of Ragnarok and slide down inexorably.
So Chen Tingzhi decided that it was none of his business, he had been a member of the Discipline Committee for so long, but the gods were still developing in the direction of moral corruption, and that was also done by himself
The craftsman in the form of the Frost Giant agreed with great pleasure, and every day he drove his god Masvadilfari back and forth between Midgard and Asgard, hauling cartloads of rocks and dirt, and even hollowing out a mountain in Midgard, turning him into a bay.
The walls were being built day by day, at an astonishing speed, and the gods panicked, and if they continued at this rate, the craftsman would not need six months, but only five months to build the wall.
Seeing a group of gods hurriedly go to the front of Loki's palace to block the door, wanting to shake the pot, Nicholas Chen knew that this time, the Norse gods were destined to break the contract.
Loki also had nothing to say, he was drunk and full of nonsense, but he really had to let the craftsman do it, Chi Guoguo's slap in the face.
Loki quietly hid near the newly built wall in Asgard, constantly observing the nameless craftsman, and finally determined that the main force of the wall was actually Swadir Farly, who had nothing to do with the craftsman himself, and that he was not a man of shrewd memory to look at his stupidity.
Naturally, Loki came to the conclusion that if the craftsmen couldn't finish the wall by six months, they had to get the horse done.
So Loki also had a brain pump, and he didn't know what to think, but he really turned into a mare to seduce Swadilfari and take it away, just like in myths and legends. No matter how much the craftsman jumped to his feet and scolded bitterly, he couldn't call back Swadir Farly, who had been in the brain of the rice worm.
The craftsman was so annoyed that he looked back at the results of his work, and after a rough calculation, he felt that even if he was alone, he could complete the construction of the wall in six months, and he didn't think to discuss with the Aesir gods about changing horses, so he went to work on his own.
When Chen Tingzhi occasionally passed by, he could see that poor stupid boy working hard to move bricks and build walls, and he was in full swing. Chen Tingzhi once again stood on the edge of the construction site and looked at the progress a little, and found that this craftsman was still very capable, and there was a glimmer of hope that it could be completed within the 6-month construction period.
However, now the gods have also shifted their attention to Loki, who has made an unexpected move, thinking that he is drunk again and actually does such an ass thing.
As for Loki, the focal point of the fight, he took the god horse Svadilfari brought by the nameless craftsman incarnated by the frost giant, and he didn't know where he had gone, the gods had searched for it, and Hermed had flown all over the nine worlds, but he still hadn't found it. But I guess I'm not thinking about where Loki is hiding now.
It can be said that in this incident, Chen Tingzhi played soy sauce throughout the whole process.
Even in the end, the frost giant was almost able to finish the wall, but when the time came, he collapsed and appeared in his original form to attack the gate of Asgard, and it was Tyr who took action.
Chen Tingzhi just silently looked at these glamorous gods, first boasted without hesitation, made a contract that he didn't want others to realize at all, and then turned his face and didn't recognize anyone to stop or even kill the person who completed the contract.
