395.The Underworld (Asking for Support)

Hervin was going to do something dangerous.

Dive.

Veronica sat on the brown single sofa opposite Hervin:

"Professor, you called me to ......"

Hervin says:

"Do you know who your power comes from?"

Veronica said calmly:

"All I know is her name, Hela. ”

Hervin says:

"I'm going to tell you a story, but you know, the story itself doesn't quite represent the truth.

"Loki is the son of the giantess Angelberda, her brother is Fenrir, the giant wolf who devours the gods, and JΓΆrmungad, the serpent who surrounds the Nine Realms.

"It is said that when she was born, she looked like an ordinary baby girl, with the only difference being that half of her body was a festering corpse.

At that time, she was destined to become the mistress of the underworld. ”

Veronica closed her eyes and recalled the first half of her pale life:

"I could feel that she was a very lonely, very vulnerable, very sensitive woman. ”

Hervin says:

"Yes, because she was born extraordinary, she was feared by the father of the gods, and even her two brothers were not so feared, because she was the ultimate destination of all living beings.

"All souls should belong to her.

But Odin became the god of death long before she was born, and he took what belonged to the goddess - the dead, and the most heroic of the dead. ”

Veronica closed her eyes and frowned:

"She had been touched by injustice and anger. ”

Hervin continues:

Odin didn't fear or instinctively hate Hela like most gods at first, but as something happened, Odin, who thought he had seen his fate, knew that Hela would never be on his side in the final battle.

At the same time, he also knew another thing, and that was how terrifying the divine power in Hela's body would eventually reach as mortals and gods fell.

"She's a threat. ”

Veronica continued to reminisce, her expression gradually becoming uneasy:

She felt fear, and there was a glimmer of hope, but in the end, hope was extinguished, and only despair, pain, and incomprehension remained.

"She was betrayed. ”

Hervin continued:

Odin gave her a trap, and he lured Hela to the underworld and sat on the throne, which symbolized death itself.

Then he closed the door. ”

A teardrop that did not belong to Veronica crossed her cheek:

"Is the story over?"

Hervin says:

"Nope.

"This is just the beginning.

"Lies, lies, lies.

Although Hela was not allowed to leave the underworld, other gods were able to go to the underworld, and Odin used the reason that the underworld could not be separated from Hela, otherwise there would be turmoil.

The girl at this time was still naΓ―ve to think that this was a gift from her uncle, death, power, the soul of the whole world.

"She's growing every day.

But by that time, Loki had already seen the truth.

"The restraints on Hela grow stronger every time she grows, but the day she can challenge Odin's authority will be forever locked up in the underworld. ”

Although Loki did not see the end of the two sides like his wise brother at the time, and only thought that it was Odin who was afraid that Hela would steal his heroic spirit, he could not have watched the girl be wasted in this way.

He didn't tell the girl the truth, but he stayed with her for a long time, and he gave her something.

"Cast a ship out of the fingernails of the dead.

"A ship that will protect her from the world of the deadβ€”Najr Fa. ”

"Najr Fa. ”

Veronica and Hervin said the ship's name at the same time.

Hewen nodded:

At the same time, Loki has carved a hidden crack in the walls of the underworld, and if Nagilfa can't protect her from leaving, this ever-expanding crack will eventually become an opportunity to escape. ”

Veronica says:

"But she didn't make it out in the end, did she?"

Hewen nodded:

"When the end came, she drove Najrfa into the war, fighting from Asgard to Helheim, where she was destroyed and trapped in the Underworld forever along with her opponents. ”

Veronica says:

"What about the crack?"

Hervin says:

"I didn't have time.

"The curse finds Hela first, and she will be tormented by loneliness and fear, slowly losing her mind, and finally being consumed by madness.

"And if Hela doesn't have enough sanity to help the rift expand, with its expansion speed, I guess I won't be able to get through it right now. ”

Veronica says:

"I did feel it, madness, rage, jealousy, lust, greed.

"Now she's completely confused. ”

Herwin crossed his hands.

Veronica says:

But she did not regret breaking her promise and left the underworld for Asgard. ”

Hewen shook his head:

"I've just told you what I've heard, and I don't know how much of it is true, but I know for sure one thing, and that's that the cracks are real. ”

Veronica looked puzzled.

Hervin says:

"I found the crack. ”

Veronica was pleasantly surprised:

"Then I can ......"

Hewen interrupted:

"You don't need to, you can go to the underworld by killing yourself, and you'll wait for that day eventually, but I don't think it's better to face a god who is even chaotic and can sense your location.

"My advice is, don't die for a short time, and I mean about two thousand years. ”

Veronica says:

"But Professor Herwen, why do you say this?"

Hervin says:

"You see, someone wants to do something to Enid. ”

Veronica nodded:

"It's a strange thing. ”

Hervin says:

"Once upon a time, there was an evil monster called Votigen, and you should have heard of him in folklore. ”

Veronica says:

King Arthur defeated him. ”

Hervin says:

"Yes, King Arthur defeated him, but now he's going to make a comeback, and now George is doing something important to me, so I don't want him to influence me. ”

Veronica says:

"So what are you going to do? ”

Hervin smiled:

"I'm going to hunt him. ”

Veronica hesitated and asked:

"Is Vitigon still alive?"

Hervin smiled and shook his head:

"Who do you think he is, King Arthur? Of course he died.

"But you remember what I said, I found the rift, and while I can't get through it right now, it wouldn't be the same if I had you, Veronica.

"I'm not like a mortal, I can reach the underworld just by dying, no, no, no, it's not that convenient, I'll only be resurrected somewhere else.

"So I need your help.

"I'm going to the underworld to kill the Humble King Vantigen. ”
