The Death Knell

"Don't you care about him yet? He looks like he's going to die."

Such a sound came from the wind and snow in the distant sky. Seeing Badr rolling and crawling under the attack of the dragon like a lone boat in the storm, Hela raised her own questions.

However, the sound of drinking was heard from the side, followed by the sound of wiping one's mouth, and then the death knell was heard saying:

"Don't worry, let's make a hypothesis first. If you were imprisoned for tens of thousands of years and saw the son of your enemy after you got out, what would you do?"

Hela was silent for a moment. She didn't even breathe, but now she seemed to blend into the storm perfectly.

After a moment, she said aloud: "I understand, Nidhogg will not kill Baldr, he will only capture him and torture him, just like a cat playing with a mouse."

"I thought you were a bitch." Deathstroke's laughter sounded very relaxed: "I didn't expect you to know the habits of cats very well. That's right. Do you still remember what the prophecy said?"

Amid the prophecies about Ragnarok, a tragic war broke out in Asgard.

‘Countless gods fell from the sky, and even the sky was dyed red. ’

'Nidhogg escaped from the trap and crawled on the battlefield, silently. He opened his mouth and feasted on the mountain of corpses until the end of all things. ’

‘Surtur threw the Sword of Twilight Levadin, which set the Tree of Life on fire, and the whole world burned. Odin’s throat was torn to pieces by Fenrir, and his son and his brother died together. ’

'When everything fell into darkness, the pitch-black dragon laughed and jumped up from the pile of corpses, carrying countless corpses as food, and flew into the endless void. ’

The big dog changed its original destiny because of the influence of Deathstroke and Hela, but what the black dragon did in Ragnarok should not change. Have you discovered anything?

Yes, even though this black dragon is so big, it is actually more skilled than anyone else. Instead of going out to take revenge against Odin, it would rather hide underground to store food for the eternal night and watch others die miserably.

It wasn't until all the warring parties were dead that it emerged and went to enjoy the blessings it had picked up. It was also one of the few survivors in Ragnarok.

Deathstroke did not tell this story, and Hela herself knew the part about the black dragon in the prophecy.

Nidhogg will not kill Baldur at this point in time. It is no different from seeking hatred. It has just been released from prison and does not know that Odin is dead, let alone that the God of Light is still a resurrected undead, so it is cautious. Action is inevitable.

It probably just wants to torment Balder now, either to vent its anger or for fun, but in the end it is just for fun.

The demonic voice of the death knell sounded after passing through the voice changer: "So wait until it knocks your brother out, and then I will have time to take action. This dragon should be smart enough to be willing to negotiate terms."

.....................

"I found that the dragon's attack method is very monotonous. It just pounces, spits poison, and flicks its tail. Does it have no other tactics? This is not even a gladiatorial fight."

After the two had a brief exchange, Hela simply became a spectator, watching her brother being beaten around like a ball.

After watching it for a few minutes she got a little bored.

"They are big and powerful, and simple moves are often effective, so most large creatures don't practice martial arts." The voice of the death knell moved downwards, drifting towards the battlefield: "But Balder doesn't have the fighting skills I imagined. , it seems that eating bugs all year round is still prone to malnutrition.”

"...Normal humans wouldn't eat bugs, would they?"

Her voice sounded helpless, as if she was tired of Death Knell's jumping thoughts.

Deathstroke transformed into Odin in a gust of snow, and the Godslayer also flowed and turned into the Eternal Spear, but he said words that Odin could not say:

"That's because you don't know enough about the earth. Some bad old men are very bad. They say that the protein content of bugs is six times that of beef. Look at Badr. He eats bugs every day. Even the body of a god cannot withstand it."

The God of Light has fainted, and the top of the mountain has been cut down by more than ten meters by the dragon's brute force. At this time, his limp body is being picked up by the dragon's little fingernails, as if he is thinking about how to cook it.

"stop!"

Just when the black dragon was struggling with how to throw Baldr back to Asgard and let him die in the hands of others, a golden light suddenly flashed in the sky.

There was a loud shout, and then a rainbow-like light hit its front paws, and the 'little pieces of meat' in the paws were naturally knocked out.

Nidhogg looked up at the sky and saw his enemy with white hair and white beard dancing wildly in the wind, and Hela, the god of the underworld behind him.

"Odin!!!"

It roared, and all the clouds in the sky were blown away by it. With the mountain peak as the center, the snowflakes covering dozens of miles around were instantly cleared.

But even though it yelled loudly, it still stayed on guard and didn't move. Its eyes, which were bigger than a basketball court, turned around, not knowing what it was thinking.

"Nidhogg!" imitating Odin's tone, the death knell slowly landed on the ground, the blue cloak raised high behind him, and the sharp gun in his hand gave off a strong light: "You understand that now is What’s going on, right?! Let my son go!”

"Quack...Of course, of course I understand, the prophecy has been fulfilled!" The dragon let out a thunderous laugh. It picked up the fallen Badr with its tail and threw it back to Odin: "I Your corpses will be waiting for you on the final battlefield, it’s over! Everything is over!”

After saying that, it suddenly spread its wings, roared towards the sky, and then took off into the sky.

The strong wind seemed to be able to press people into the ground. When they looked up again, the giant dragon had disappeared.

Deathstroke shook his head and threw Balder aside:

"It is very patient and cautious. It doesn't even want to take the risk of fighting Odin. It just waits to eat the ready-made food as predicted."

"After being imprisoned for so long, no matter how impatient you are, you will become patient." Hela stretched out the black stone spikes and turned Balder over: "What should we do next? Baldr is unconscious, how can we get out? Climb a tree?”

"It's just a head impact, it's not brain death." Deathstroke silently ordered Strangler to give some electrical stimulation to Badr's brain, just like restarting a computer: "He will wake up soon. We can go to Aspen first." Garde will wait for him and just find a tree branch for him to hang on halfway, but I have to talk to Yggdrasil first."

After Su Ming said this, he walked straight to the cave in the wind and snow, and saw the snake pond like a moving lake.

"Strangulation."

Black tentacles spurted out from behind him and turned into snakes with crescent eyes, biting together with those snakes.

The symbiote is obviously much more powerful, and like a scavenger, it helps the host clear a path so that he can get to the roots of the tree.

It came to deal with the sea of ​​snakes, and Deathstroke took out the Night Sword with one hand, letting the X metal flow to the blade, and activated the Time Stone with the other hand.

Just like the butcher in the vegetable market who often cuts the kitchen knife into the chopping board, Su Ming used his backhand to cut the giant sword into the root of the tree. With the sound of 'duo', it was a true three-pointer.

He smiled and stretched out his hand to pat the bark of the tree, filling his body with green light:

"Yuktrasir, I am the Supreme Mage Deathstroke, come out and negotiate a deal. How about you let a few people go when you commit suicide? You are an old man, and you don't lack the three melons and two dates. Don't be so stingy. .”

"..."

The auditory hallucination appeared. First, I heard the rustling of leaves, then the sound of rain falling on the leaves, and then the sound of fallen leaves falling to the ground. It seemed to demonstrate the cycle of plants to the death knell, indicating that these are inevitable. .

"Don't refuse so quickly, listen to my offer." Deathstroke jumped on the roots and sat in a position twisted into a natural hammock: "You have experienced Ragnarok six times, and you have never thought about dealing with it." Parasite in the Shadow? I can help you, in exchange for a few of you."

"..."

However, the World Tree refused to communicate, and it began to wither rapidly.
