Chapter 833: Heroes of the Times
"We don't know much about Freya." Chu Ping looked at the content summarized on the computer in front of him, "At present, I only know that she has some kind of attachment to Bell, and this attachment is likely to be because of Bell's soul, but how far has the attachment got?" What kind of emotion is it held? I have some speculation here, but I can't guarantee the truth, and besides, Freya's relationship among the gods may be better than we think, and judging by the information in the fantasy works in the Overworld, she is even a good friend of Loki. ”
"You mean to say...... Shall we ask Loki for information first? Shen Fu pondered the feasibility of doing so, "But if Freya is really Loki's friend, then Loki should think of our inquiry as if we were looking for a middleman." ”
"Actually, I suspect that Loki should have started acting as this middleman a long time ago."
"What do you mean?" Shen Fu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Chu Ping suspiciously, feeling that he seemed to have missed something.
"Our original next step was to convene a meeting of the gods and gain control of Olari on the condition of helping them deal with the fallen angels, but at this time, Freya held a banquet of the gods and let you, the chief, participate in it, isn't it too coincidental?"
As soon as Chu Ping said this, Shen Fu finally figured out what he had always felt was wrong.
It was previously preconceived that it was a provocation for Freya to hold a banquet of the gods and invite him after doing that kind of thing.
But in fact, from another point of view, it is undoubtedly beneficial for Shen Fu's side to have a way to personally probe the tone of the gods before the formal talks, or to understand the attitude of the gods towards Huaxia, that is to say, this banquet of the gods may not be a provocation, but a release of goodwill.
As for why he said that while letting his family members "test" Bell, he also released kindness to Shen Fu's side, if Loki intervened in it, then everything would make sense.
"And in the end, although the other party's means and goals are different from ours, the starting point is indeed for Bell's good." Chu Ping continued, "It is undeniable that Bell has also grown a lot from this crisis, and I have every reason to believe that Freya will not sit back and watch Bell really die, because the timing of the awakening of those three adventurers and the timing of our arrival are too coincidental. ”
It is impossible for a hero's growth history to be without tribulations, of course Shen Fu knows this, but with the Chinese people's concept of education, it is still not very acceptable to this kind of deliberate, even life-threatening ordeal.
Ji Ming opened his mouth at this time and said, "I think the truth should be like this, after all, judging from the force field of the bystanders, Freya, who hopes that Bell will be strong and then take it for herself, is not much different from us who value Bell's qualifications and attach importance to them, at least the purpose in the early stage is the same." ”
"Although the purpose of the early stage is the same, the purpose of the later stage can be completely different." Shen Fu couldn't help but be a little depressed, and said, "We don't have much demand for Bell, if he can grow into a big help, of course, if he can't grow, it's nothing, in the end, we don't need the so-called heroes, but Freya is different, her purpose is to have Bell's body and mind, so that the heroes of this era are obsessed with her and become her unique thing." ”
"But she may not be able to succeed." Chu Ping shook his head and said, "I think that if the reason why Freya is so obsessed with Bell is in the soul, then Zeus has no reason not to know, not to mention, according to the information we have now, the 'heroes of the times' in this world are actually not like the existence of 'fate', 'prophecy', 'destiny' and the like in some fantasy works, but refers to people with certain 'qualifications', after experiencing a series of legendary things, becoming the only hero of this era. In the legendary thing, the affection and temptation of the god of beauty is actually an established part of Zeus and even the gods admitted. ”
"You mean to say ......" Shen Fu exhaled a long breath and said words that shocked him a little, "This is the process set by the gods?" If Freya succeeded, if Bell failed to resist temptation, then he wasn't a hero of the times? But ......"
"It won't be a process, but for the gods who crave mortal pleasures, Freya's actions will not be condemned, but supported." Chu Ping said what he didn't finish for Shen Fu, "But if Bell fails, then he is not a hero of the times, and Freya has no need to continue to fall in love, and Bell will be abandoned at that time, and he can only be regarded as a complete loser who is drowned in the torrent of history." ”
"I see what you mean...... If we make this dispute with Freya clear at this banquet, it will backfire, and to put it bluntly, it is just a heroic game for the gods. ”
The expectations of the gods will make them promote the birth of the heroes of the times according to the established procedures, and what is entangled in Bell is that there is some kind of game under the established rules, but in the final analysis, it is just a game set by the gods to relieve boredom, and even their own body and mind are invested in the game, even Zeus, the "grandfather of heroes".
"But that's really just your guess." Ji Ming frowned and looked at Chu Ping, "The gods have not been descending on a large scale for a long time, and there is no precedent for the heroes of the times you are talking about, at best, the gods want to turn it into reality because of their longing for fairy tales, and it is not of much help to us to deal with the problems at hand - originally with Freya's connections, we don't need to expect the gods to be on our side in terms of reasoning." ”
"No, Bell is the center of the plot of this world, and he has the eyes of many gods on him, and it is still very helpful for us to understand the reactions that these gods may have when they learn about Bell's situation." Chu Ping shook his head, as if he was confident, he looked at Shen Fu again, "Chief, in fact, I have been preparing a report for this time, although it has not been completed yet, but I think that we can combine this report with this Bell incident, and we may be able to have unexpected gains." ”
Shen Fu nodded, "Then take it out and take a look." ”
Chu Ping will not speak without purpose, in fact, he is more suitable for decision-making than Shen Fu in terms of thinking ability, because he can always look at the changes in things from an angle that ordinary people can't think of.
