Chapter 20: Sacrifice and the Shadow of War

Sacrifice, the word in any world, is a way of acting for the living towards the existence of nothingness. Or ghosts or gods, in this way hoping to achieve their own ends. But in Asgard, sacrifice has a real meaning.

Countless men and women walked out of their homes on this night, their faces less cheerful than before, and more solemn and solemn.

Tonight, even the starry sky is bright. Ian felt a hint of ethereal and calm in his heart at this time, which was strange, and it didn't seem to be because of the surrounding atmosphere.

The three of them walked slowly forward with the flow of people, the air became more and more humid, and a wave of light in the distance came into view, and the rippling sea water brought Ian infinite shock.

I remember when I was on earth, I stood on the beach and saw the sea and the sky meet. In Asgard, however, it feels like being in the shoes of the stars. All because the sea of Asgard is a margin, indeed a real margin, not an adjective.

"Is this the sea of your Asgard? How like a waterfall! Where does all that water end up? Ian asked curiously.

Jamie looked at his mother in the crystal coffin and said expressionlessly: "The sea of Asgard is called the sea of life, it has a special meaning and purpose, and it is naturally different from the ordinary sea."

"What's the difference?"

Before Jamie could answer, the flow of people had stopped, and Panson walked forward carrying the crystal coffin alone, and people made way for him. On the seashore, small boats covered with flowers are moored there.

Pan Sen opened the crystal coffin and picked up Leona affectionately, at this moment even Jamie's expression had a sign of collapse, and the small body that could pick people up at will was shaking slightly!

"Alas! In the end, it is a girl, and it seems that there is hope to pull her back from the road of no return for a woman. Thinking that Ian stepped forward and pressed his shoulder against her back, it seemed to outsiders to be just an unintentional collision under the crowd, but it made Jamie's delicate body calm again. Sometimes, people always rely on something habitually!

Panson gently placed Leona in the boat, and like the rest of the people, watched as his beloved slowly floated away like the end of the ocean. The boat was halfway through, and Pan Sen took the rocket from the hand of a gold-armored warrior next to him. The bow is like a full moon, the arrow is like a meteor, and the spark accurately ignites the flower boat, and Leona melts into the flames along with the corpses of many martyrs!

Everything was so sad that when the martyrs approached the edge of the sea, a strong vitality of life enveloped the whole of Asgard in an instant! The corpses that melted into the flames did not fall into the starry sky alone, but turned into countless stars and rose into an unknown nothingness in the moment of falling!

"The Sea of Life is a magical place, it has incredible power, and when the body passes through the Sea of Life, the soul is endowed with a magical power, and under the strengthening of this power, the soul becomes more solid. This gives them the opportunity to choose the six realms independently, so that they will not be reincarnated as animals in the next life! Two lines of tears ran down Jamie's cheeks, and although his tone was still cold, the slightest defensiveness in his words was noticeably less.

"Live well, this must be her last wish!" Sana appeared at Pan Sen's side at some point.

Pan Sen didn't answer, but a slight tapping of his head meant that he had really listened to it. The stars have stopped shining, and the feeling of surging life has quietly disappeared, but everyone is still quietly remembering. I don't know how long it took, but Sana's voice sounded again.

"You know what? The war is about to start again! Sona's first words directly made Jamie's delicate body stiffen, and Ian, who was leaning next to her, naturally felt it keenly. It's just that he doesn't have the heart to comfort the little girl at the moment, but his whole mind is completely attracted by the conversation between the two.

"What's going on?" Pan Sen asked quietly, but Ian clearly noticed that the attention of the people around him had shifted, do you dare to be louder?

Sana gave him an angry look, but still replied, "It's Anthony's order, and he has been moving warships frequently." Although it was not explained, there were rumors in the army for a long time. ”

"Who is the enemy this time?" Pan Sen asked coldly.

Sana choked, "You're so straightforward!" Wouldn't you like to ask why? ”

Pan Sen's gaze never wavered, "As a warrior, whoever threatens Asgard is my enemy. No reason, no process, just knowing the goal is enough! ”

"You ......" Sana was suddenly speechless, what else can you say about such a tenacious guy?

Ian, who had just become a citizen of Asgard, couldn't understand this at all, but the slight expression of approval from the people around him taught him a deep lesson! This may be the spirit of the Asgardians, where is it so simple to be able to claim to be the guardian of the human race!

Perhaps perceiving Sona's silence, Panson sighed and explained, "Zeus is not a reckless man, and his every decision is full of deep meaning!"

"Then tell me, what is the meaning of His Majesty this time?" As he spoke, he pointed to the high platform behind him with his smooth chin.

Seeing this, Pan Sen couldn't help but exclaim, "Alas? When will he come too! But he saw that on the high platform, Zeus was holding a lightning spear and looking at the depths of the sea, and his deep eyes seemed to see through time and the future!

Sana couldn't bear to slap a knife on his head, "You only have Leona in your eyes, when did you care about others!" As he spoke, a powerful resentment in his tone made Ian tremble.

However, Pan Sen seemed to be sluggish and did not have any abnormality, but his brows were tightly locked, "Your Majesty actually came to participate in the sacrifice in person, which makes me a little incomprehensible." ”

"Your hippopotamus head doesn't do much except that it's heavy enough to be used as a head hammer!" Sana sneered, the light in her eyes a little dimmed, but then said: "Most of the battleships are equipped with weapons full of fire elements, even if they are conventional weapons, they are mostly prepared with high explosive nature!" As I expected, this time, our enemy is the Frost Giant! ”

"Frost Giant! Could it be that Laufey is starting to stir again? According to the past practice, as long as Zeus leads a small detachment to warn, what kind of warships are still used? Panson looked at Sana with some confusion.

"This ...... You should ask Anthony. Sana shrugged, "He's always known for his intelligence, so he shouldn't be out of sight!" ”

“…… Will you go on the expedition? ”

"What's the matter with your sudden silence? If I can know this, of course I am on the list! Sana said with some dissatisfaction.

"As a ninth-level combat power, I'll go too!"

"Thank you! Actually, you don't have to say why. ”

……

Zeus crossed the rainbow bridge step by step, with only Anthony by his side, and the golden boot tower made a crisp sound on the glittering rainbow bridge, as if stepping on people's hearts.

"Honestly, I really don't want to see you right now!" Heimdall said loudly with sadness in his eyes, he was fully armed, his giant sword on the ground, and his whole person was like an indelible monument.

"I'm also a god king, so you can leave me a thin face in front of outsiders!" The corners of Zeus's mouth twitched, and he said angrily.

Heimdall pursed his lips in disdain, and looked at Anthony before he could speak, but he interrupted him, "Don't look at me like that, move with affection, know with reason, I have already persuaded everything I can!" You know, how stubborn this old guy is! ”

Anthony's words made Zeus's face tremble for a while, and he said angrily: "You are not a god king now!" Am I really good at saying that? ”

Anthony ignored him and just rolled his eyes, and Heimdall said lightly when he saw this: "I can't refuse your decision, I just hope you don't regret it!"

Zeus snorted coldly and sneered, "I already have some regrets for letting you two bastards send me!"

Heimdall smiled and turned around to lead the two of them into the bridge of the Rainbow Bridge, and without saying much, he gestured a few times in the air with his hands, and the light and shadow of the Dao Dao shuttled back and forth with the movements, and on the gorgeous walls around him, those mysterious patterns began to change, intertwining and combining into inexplicable patterns.

Heimdall walked to the middle and slammed the greatsword into the core, then turned around and said, "The coordinates have been set, are you sure you want to do this?"

"We've been talking about it for a long time, haven't we?" Zeus's eyes were still so unmistakable, and he stepped forward a few steps to the entrance of the passage.

Heimdall reluctantly glanced at Anthony, then pressed the greatsword downward.

Rumble!

The dazzling brilliance formed a deep passage in an instant, and changing lights and shadows flashed from the passage one after another. Zeus took a deep breath, turned around and smiled, "It won't be long before we meet again!" Then the fit was thrown into the passage.

Anthony and Heimdall revealed endless sadness at this moment!

Colorful pillars of light pierced the endless starry sky, and through the layers of space, they accurately bombarded a planet, which was covered with thick dark clouds, completely different from the dark elements created by Malekis, they were real dark clouds, containing endless coolness.

The pillar of light disappeared, Zeus walked out of it with a majestic face, looked at the completely cold palace around him and snorted very disdainfully, as if he was dissatisfied with the coldness around him, or expressed contempt for the style of the palace!

"Who?"

With a roar, three or five frost giants two feet tall and two feet away pounced, this place was not as hospitable as Asgard. Zeus's eyes narrowed slightly, but he showed no mercy, and the lightning of his spear easily turned several giants into charcoal!

"Zeus! Are you looking for death? Laufey stood on the steps of the hall at some point, his fierce eyes staring at a dead man.

"Laufey, in the name of the God-King, I command you to cease all attempts at Midgard!" Zeus pointed a finger at Laufey, and shouted angrily.

Laufey laughed when he heard this, "Order me? You're foolish! ”

But seeing Zeus beat the spear, he shouted unexpectedly: "If you want war, I will give you war!"
