Chapter 866 Mr. Tree
The Hades Serpent plunged into the ground, its form fully unfolding.
Nidhogg turned back into a huge black shadow, slowly changing on the earth.
The thing that the Hades Snake fears most is the sun. Under the sun, the Hades Snake becomes extremely weak and even turns into a black stone statue, unable to move. So there are not many places it can go, but at least it can move in the Land of Mist.
Only in darkness can the Hades Serpent recover to its strongest state.
Nothing can stop the darkness!
It crashed heavily into the origin of the inexhaustible spring.
Nidhogg saw an ice sculpture standing there. It had a huge, dark body and stretched dragon wings on its strong back.
That was my former body.
It has long been penetrated by tree roots and turned into nutrients for the root system.
Nidhogg smashed his own remains headfirst, and the main trunk of the tree behind him gradually formed a wooden giant sitting on a throne.
He wore an eagle helmet, golden armor, one eye and a long beard.
The wooden giant held his chin with one hand and looked down at the Hades Serpent coldly.
"Poor Nidhogg, you gave up the chance to transform into a dragon."
Nidhogg rushed towards the other party.
He is not Odin.
Odin has fallen.
But it found that it could not get close to the other party and could not touch the "King of Gods" who was resurrected from the tree roots.
"Submit to me, you weak wretch."
“This is your only choice.”
The God-King's arrogance and superiority remain the same as before.
"Fuck you!"
Nidhogg finally yelled viciously: "King of the Gods? Bullshit! You are just a blood-sucking worm that relies on all the Norse mythology! Without Norse mythology, you are nothing!"
Odin looked down at the Hades Serpent with his one eye: "Snakes are snakes. You can never tame them. They are only fit to live in the gutters of the underworld."
He raised his hand.
Countless spears appeared in the air and pierced Nidhogg in an instant.
Nidhogg was used to this, as it had often been subjected to this kind of "punishment" in Norse mythology in the past.
It felt the difference from the pain. The Spear of Destiny [Gungnir] would never be so weak.
Nidhogg laughed: "You are just a puppet left by Odin, pretending to be so realistic."
"presumptuous."
Odin's one eye glowed.
The spears turned into many wood whiskers and drilled into Nidhogg's body, madly sucking the power of the snake's flesh and blood. Nidhogg felt that he was rapidly weakening. This was very familiar to him. It was this power that forced him to sleep during Ragnarok.
It fled upwards, dragging its many roots along the way.
Odin followed to the ground.
When it reached the ground, Nidhogg was already weak and dizzy. It lay on the ground panting, feeling that it was difficult to move its body.
In the blurred vision, a white windmill that had never been seen before appeared.
The windmill turned slowly, bringing up a breeze that caused all the dense roots on Nidhogg's body to wither and turn into ashes.
Before Odin at the root of the tree could react, he was hit by beams of light, which burned holes in his body and made him stagger in the air. His right shoulder and left face were blown apart.
What attacked him were huge silver fish heads, whose eyes were blood red and the beams of light that came out of their mouths blasted Odin's body so badly that he was completely festering and had no power to fight back.
Odin on the tree root opened his lips slightly, and the sound he made was also intermittent: "How outrageous, how outrageous..."
He staggered, but couldn't even restore his broken body.
A group of Yao people appeared nearby. They sprayed a potion that made Odin at the root of the tree stiffen and fall into a deep sleep.
Then they began to examine and cut and collect Odin with various tools.
The Blood Knight stood beside Nidhogg and said in a cold voice: "It's hard work."
“It should be.”
Nidhogg was now surrounded by a group of doctors who were skillfully treating the numerous wounds on its body, applying medicine, stitching, and spraying toxins, allowing it to quickly recover.
Before entering the underground, it received a message from the Blood Knight.
"Can you lead the source down there? I can handle it once we get to the surface."
Although this was the first formal conversation between it and the Blood Knight, both sides cooperated tacitly.
Nidhogg just didn't expect that Odin on the tree root could be caught so easily.
Although he is a fake God King, the abilities he displays are also at the level of gods.
Later, Nidhogg learned that the white windmill was called a [Psychic Blocker], which made active spells, props, miracles and wonders ineffective.
The roaring silver fish is called [Suyin Yushou]. It not only has an extremely long attack range, but can also repel enemies and interrupt spells. Its power can even kill titled gods.
As soon as the tree root Odin landed on the ground, he became a living target with no ability to fight back and became a subject of research.
The Blood Knight looked towards Nidhogg.
The apostle's true face could not be seen through the thick helmet.
The knight clasped his right fist towards the Hades Serpent and placed it on his left chest in respect.
Nidhogg also raised his neck and nodded solemnly in response.
…
The area around the Inexhaustible Spring was quickly controlled, and Odin at the roots of the tree became the experimental material of scholars.
The local god [Billion Body] personally completed the appraisal.
Odin at the root of the tree is a pseudo-god creature, or a monster. He cannot use the fire of faith and miracles, but worshiping and offering sacrifices to them will also make him grow stronger.
[Billions of Bodies] believes: "He is a monster created by Odin using himself as a template, using the roots of the World Tree as a foundation, drawing the power of the entire Mist Kingdom from the Inexhaustible Spring to revive and grow."
"As expected of the God King of Norse mythology, Odin has transformed the [Mist Country] into something so hidden and clever that it cannot be discovered at all. It seems that he wants to invade and rule other civilizations that use the Mist Country and become the power that Norse mythology has returned to."
[Billions of Bodies] was dressed in green, holding a silver staff in his hand, and smiling under the shadow of a wide-brimmed hat: "Thanks to your cooperation and timely subjugation, otherwise there would be more trouble. But now it's okay, this [Mr. Tree] has been immobilized, I have removed the mark left by Odin, and it will soon return to its natural form."
"It's a good thing that the roots of the World Tree can sprout again. It can provide us with a rare research target. It is quite amazing that it can imitate gods and even display similar special abilities."
He pressed the brim of his hat towards Nidhogg and said, "I didn't expect that you would also come to our world."
"Welcome aboard."
Nidhogg knew that the other party had seen through his identity.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Mr. Nevid." Billions of Bodies was quite polite to the Blood Knight. "Then I'll be leaving first. I've been busy lately and haven't had time to think about the affairs of this world. Thank you for coordinating with Miss Tyrant to get these war tools."
The Blood Knight simply said, "Duty is the order."
…
After the situation calmed down, the roots of the Tree of Life continued to grow slowly.
It grows from the inexhaustible spring all the way up to the sky, and the bottom still looks like Odin sitting on the throne, but this Mr. Tree has returned to the chaotic state of life itself.
Most of the time, it sat there dumbly, unable to speak. Sometimes it would stand up from the throne and look around, but it would not and could not leave the tree roots, more like a strange consciousness born from the tree roots.
After the initial fear and commotion, the people of the Eternal City gradually got used to Odin under the tree.
People often come to watch and even say hello to it.
"Mr. Shu, be nice today, but please don't eat children anymore."
"Mr. Shu, can you speak? Do you want me to teach you?"
"Mr. Tree, can you run? Or climb a tree?"
…
The people of Bu Lao City have a strong ability to withstand stress.
However, Nidhogg discovered that the appearance of Mr. Tree was constantly changing. Its throne gradually merged into the roots, and the posture of sitting on the throne turned into a standing and gazing posture.
[Mr. Tree] was finally transformed into a warrior wearing armor and standing with a sword.
It took on the appearance of a Blood Knight.
Yao scholars said that this was its innate ability to imitate. After Odin's influence was eliminated, it would subconsciously imitate the surrounding life.
Not far ahead, the Blood Knight who had left a deep impression on it became its imitation target.
Mr. Tree became Tree Knight.
After returning to his peaceful life, the Blood Knight returned to his silence and continued to stand in front of the Eternal Spring.
He is responsible for carrying the oracle of the god Yao and defending the Kingdom of Mist.
For hundreds of years, the Blood Knights remained motionless and carried out this order.
Nidhogg thought that the God Yao was truly a discerning god, able to discover such an apostle.
The Nibelungs loved and respected the Blood Knight very much. Whenever a child left here or grew up to be a giant, they would come to the Blood Knight and say goodbye to him.
The Blood Knight, who usually remained silent, spoke at this time.
"Good luck."
If Nidhogg is the new hero of the Undying City, then the Blood Knight is the ancient tradition of this city.
One day, the Blood Knight suddenly shone brightly, and his entire body was bathed in a vast and holy white light.
It's Kamui! Nidhogg, who was resting nearby at the moment, straightened his neck.
The Blood Knight now turned into a blurry shadow that could not be looked at directly or spied on.
Nidhogg was surprised.
This is a sign of the gods.
The Blood Knight had obtained the qualifications to become a god and was promoted to god! After a moment, the Blood Knight's glory disappeared and he returned to his working state with his sword in hand.
He looked over and said, "According to the divine oracle, I have another mission. This is for you."
Nidhogg nodded: "Okay."
The Blood Knight turned into a beam of white light and rushed into the sky.
Nidhogg felt somewhat melancholy, and suddenly he sensed the coming of a huge will.
——Become my apostle.
…
Many years later, Nidhogg had been transferred away from the Kingdom of Mist, and became a Yao god just like the Blood Knight.
When He is busy, He will occasionally secretly look at this place.
Although He knew that he could never return here, he could only reminisce about the past.
The Eternal City built a stone statue of Nidhogg next to the Inexhaustible Spring.
Not far away was Mr. Tree, who looked like a blood knight.
People come and go, but the stories of the Knights and the Dark Serpents live on.
They will always watch over the city.
