"I used to be the Lord of the Divine Domain, the Supreme King, or the Emperor, though we don't use that title.""
The stars you see are my territory, I rule the nine kingdoms, and I have had the ambition to expand my territory and spread the glory of Asgard to the stars beyond...
Ah, I was so innocent at that time. ”The serpent's old voice echoed in Merlin's mind, and the old man's words were full of unspeakable loneliness, telling Merlin the story of his past, and this first-person description of the protagonist gave Merlin a sense of entering history.With a cup of hot tea in his hand, he listened quietly to the story of the serpent, and did not express his opinion casually, well, it was a courtesy."
More than 4,000 years ago, my brother and I, Odin, we walked together on the worlds that stretched from every branch of the World Tree, we traveled to the stars, we saw countless magnificent miracles, we fought the most intractable enemies together, we also came to Midgard, but the earth was primitive at that time."
The serpent said, "You humans have not yet given birth to a true civilization, existing as a foolish clan, ruled by other beings from the stars, whom your ancestors called 'gods', whom I have seen with my own eyes...
Zeus and the Olympus he had just built, and the jealous Hera.I also rode with Ra on a solar boat and sailed in his land. ”"They are no different from us, they come from the sea of stars and stay on Earth for various reasons.But they are different from us, they are just a group of passers-by to this world, but the world itself, at the time of the birth of my ancestors, has been a subject of Asgard. ”"My brother and I welcomed them as masters, and they were also afraid of the glory of Asgard, and they played their 'gods' on earth, when everything was so beautiful, so beautiful that it was unreal."
The serpent's memory looked a little confused, and as he told his story, he suddenly turned to describe the ancient earth and the gods.But it's interesting.Merlin waved his hand, a black quill that no one held in his hand, and quickly recorded in the notebook in his hand, recording these real, but never-before-recorded histories."
Our father, Pol, the former king of Asgard, is old, and we love him.One day, he summoned me and Odin to the Golden Palace, and he told us that the next king would be one of us, but we had to go through the king's trials. ”The serpent coughed twice, and it retracted its thoughts and began to continue telling the story of itself and Odin."
It was a ritual that required a trial to become a king, and even though my brother was not willing to compete with me for the throne of the god-king, he had to participate in that ceremony.""
To the cheers of our subjects, my brother and I set foot on the Rainbow Bridge to visit the wise giant Yumir to begin our path to kingship.""
I didn't stay long at the fountain of wisdom in Umir, I quickly moved on while my brother stayed there.But I didn't expect that trip to change me completely. ”The Great Snake sighed: "Maybe it's fate, I saw the illusion of disaster during my journey...
It was a cataclysm even more terrifying than the Ragnarok teleported by Asgard, no, no!
That was true Ragnarok, and at the end of the World Tree, I saw the horrors of war that would sweep the realms in the future. ”"Ten of the most powerful kingdoms born of the World Tree will be swept up in it, the Asgardians, the wizards of Warnerheim, the elves of Alfheim, the dwarves of Nidavel, the dark elves of Watt Alheim, the flame giants of Muspelheim, the frost giants of Jotunheim, the necromancers of the abyss of Hadesgard, the humans of Midgart, the angels of the High Heavens...""
No living creature can escape, and in the flames of annihilation, the terrifying god Mangogo will break through the seal, everything will be destroyed, and everything will be reduced to ashes.""
That's a warning!
That was the World Tree's warning to the King!
I can't turn a blind eye to that. ”Hearing this, Merlin was a little puzzled, he seemed to want to ask something, but the story of the Great Snake continued, so Merlin chose to continue listening and put the question off."
I went back to Asgard with my scars, and I told my father, Pol, what I saw, and my father told me that it was just one of a myriad of futures, and he told me not to worry too much...
But he was wrong, and I could feel it, and that was what was going to happen in the future. ”The serpent's tone became cold."
I became king, and to the cheers of the people and my loved ones, I took my father's crown and became the new god-king...
I began to prepare for the catastrophe I saw, I began to prepare a truly great legion, I forged weapons of war with the divine power of my godhead of fear with the god-king of Asgard, but those dwarves, stupid and stubborn dwarves were afraid of the power of those fearful artifacts, and they refused to help me. ”"I have sent the most powerful generals under my command to the world of the dwarves, and they should obey the king's orders!""
I try to make peace with the enemies of Asgard, even with the pesky angels and the dark elves who steal the light, and peace talks do not make it possible to conquer the army of factions, because I know that in the future I see, all must be united.""
I have commanded the lords of the abyss of hell to recruit the undead legions for me, and even you, Midgarts, I need you to contribute your own armies as well...""
However, great sacrifices are not understood by fools."
The big snake sneered a few times: "I expected that someone would rebel against this pre-doomsday preparation, but I didn't expect that the most brutal knife that pierced my chest actually came from my dearest brother...
Odin!
The brother who has always stood behind me and has always supported me. ”"He denounced me as a tyrant, he said I dragged the whole stars into the war, stupid!
And hypocrisy...
When he rushed into the Golden Palace with the rebels, I saw it when he faced me!
”"I saw it!
There is a lie in his eyes that cannot be concealed...
What is for peace, what is for the people, it's all nonsense!
It's all shit!
”"He did all that just for the son he would be born in the future.""
Thor, the Thor of Destiny."
Hearing this, Merlin was a little confused again, and he couldn't help but ask, "What does this have to do with Thor?"
In your time, Thor was not yet born. ”"You don't understand, earthling, even if you have enough power to rival the gods of Asgard, your vision still restricts you."
The serpent sneered a few times, and said, "In your eyes, fate is uncertain, but in our eyes, fate is traceable.Remember I told you before that when I set out on the King's Path, my 'dear' brother stayed with the wise giant Yumir...
He concealed his experience, where he saw an ethereal prophecy. ”"In the fountain of wisdom of Yumir, he saw that his future son would die at my hands, and he thought it was a ridiculous joke, but in the end, after I became the god-king, he paid his eyes to truly confirm the truth of that prophecy.""
His son, Thor, will die with me in a war, and only Thor can really kill me.Not only does he know which prophecy, but I know...
I also saw this scene in the vision of disaster, but I didn't care. ”"The fool believed it, he rebelled against me, he drove me from his throne, he killed my body, but he couldn't break my will, he sealed me in the deepest trenches of Midgard, and made a deal with the foolish beast to guard my graveyard.""
It's a pity, it's a pity, Odin didn't know, I was already prepared for this...""
The Dread Artifact is waiting for the return of the Dread Venerable in the stars, my eight generals, they will reclaim the throne of Asgard for me, they will conquer the worlds for me, I will complete my mission that I have not been able to complete, I will stop and crush the battle of the worlds that engulfs everything."
The serpent's story is over.Merlin didn't say anything immediately, instead, he picked up his notebook and looked at the story that had been written in its entirety, and after a few minutes he asked, "The first question, I've been in contact with the Asgardians, and they all told me that the territory of Asgard is the Nine Kingdoms...
But in your story, the World Tree has spawned ten kingdoms...

High Heaven, what kind of place is that?
Where is it now?
Why are the Asgardians of today completely unaware of the existence of that kingdom?
”"I can't answer that question for you."
There was also a hint of doubt in the serpent's tone, and it said, "I have been sealed for more than 3,000 years, and maybe something has happened in the midst of this. ”"But in my time, and even in my father's time, the angels of the High Heavens have been in a confrontation and war with the Asgardians, and perhaps it was the angels who angered my 'good brother' and led his army to destroy the High Heavens.Hehe, he's always been a very emotional person, and he lacks the necessary potential to become a king. ”"Okay."
Merlin thinks that this is unlikely, the tenth kingdom derived from the World Tree has mysteriously disappeared, well, this can barely be regarded as an unsolved mystery.He looked at his notebook and asked, "You said you forged the Fear Artifact...
Counting the Scati Warhammer, there should be 7 more, right?
”"That's right."
The serpent's voice became strange, as if it was deliberately tempting Merlin, and it said: "There are a total of 8 Dread Hammers, all forged by the best dwarven smiths in Nidavel, forged in the depths of the Sea of Flames of Muspelheim, each of them has a hint of my Dread Godhead, and each time you get one, the more complete the Godhead becomes, and the more power you can borrow...""
Think about it, Merlin, weird mortal.""
As long as you help me open the seal, I will summon other divine hammers to help you, trust me, that is the power you need!
And best of all, it's at your fingertips!
”"Sounds good, but you better stop playing the trick of seduction."
Merlin said: "Your story is wonderful, but the same story from different people's mouths feels different, especially as the protagonist of the story, you will inevitably be a little subjective. ”"You say you started a war to save everything, but you see, your brother Odin has easily gathered a force that can overthrow your rule...
This shows that either you are a failure as a king, or you are not as righteous and great as you say. ”"You're not a good liar, Mr.
Kuhl, and I'm not an idiot."
Merlin closed his notebook and said to Serpent's Will hidden in Scati's Warhammer, "We had a good time working together, so let's keep it up for now."
The contract has been signed, and in 10 years, I'll put the Scati Warhammer back where you wanted. ”"Until then, let's continue to be 'friends.'"
He grabbed the golden warhammer on the table, and in the beating of the purple arc of light, the warhammer was placed in a box.Merlin handed the hammer to Xuanlan beside him, and he said, "Put it back in the storage room and don't let the children touch it." ”"Hmm."
Xuanlan nodded, and left the hall of the mystery house with the Scati Warhammer.After Xuanlan left, Merlin reached out and removed the parchment from the wooden shelf by the fireplace, and he flattened the parchment in front of his eyes, saying, "We haven't talked for a long time. ”The word "hmm" appears on parchment."
Yes, we haven't talked for a long time because of your excess vigilance and delusions of persecution that have nowhere to put it.""
Don't be so angry."
Merlin smiled and said, "You know, if you make some normal requests, we're still best friends. ”"You're friends with a piece of paper?"
The words on the parchment were all twisted, as if mocking Merlin: "Your fetish is really getting worse, you really should go to the doctor." ”"You see, it's because you speak so unkindly that our relationship is so estranged."
Merlin picked up his pen and wrote a question on parchment."
I'm curious, Black Bolt and Medusa have asked you for information about the whipping, and what are you asking of them?""
Guess?"
The answer appeared on the parchment: "Or, you finish something, and I'll tell you." ”"Well, forget it."
Merlin said, "I'm not really that desperate to know...""
Then why are you telling me this?"
The parchment felt fooled, and the font that appeared on it became distorted: "Are you wasting your time?"
Are you kidding me?
”"Yes.I just thought it was fun. ”Merlin laughed as he put the parchment back on the wooden shelf, and said, "Don't be angry, smile, and...
Good night, my dear friend. ”Just as Merlin was about to leave, a blood-red handwriting suddenly appeared on the parchment that had been placed on the wooden shelf, like a warning."
Fate has turned again...
Time is running out for you. ”"May you be ready for your future, my friend.If you don't, hehe, I'll help you, just like before..."
