The Death Knell

Deathstroke's eyesight was enough to see clearly what was flying at the speed of light. It was a huge snake, its extremely huge body traveling through the dark clouds.

But is it the big snake everyone has been waiting for? But no.

This snake is the original 'person to be robbed' in the prophecy, and the other snake copies the 'crisis' and 'curse' it represents.

"The son of Odin shattered his head, but his fangs pierced his arm, and the heroic god turned and took nine steps and fell forever."

Deathstroke repeated the prophecy in his heart, and Hela, not far away, immediately understood.

This is not the snake everyone is waiting for, this snake is Jörmungandr, the mortal serpent.

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

In fact, in Su Ming's previous life, when he first started watching Marvel, he couldn't tell the difference between 'Orochi' and 'Jörmungandr'. According to the Norse mythology of that earth, they didn't both refer to the same thing. A snake?

However, as his experience increased and he taught himself half-baked English and how to 'climb the wall', he understood the difference between the two in the Marvel setting.

Jormungand, also known as the Midgard Serpent, is actually the father of Loki and the mother of the famous old witch Angerboda.

This name sounds a bit strange, but in fact, if you name her relatives, you can find her connection with the earth.

Angboda's father is one of the indescribable Elder Ones. Its name cannot even be pronounced with human vocal organs. It can only be called the wolf god (Varcolac). Its common appearance is a wolf-headed worm. The body has tens of thousands of legs.

Her mother is also an indescribable monster. Echidna, known as the mother of monsters, has a body made of eight snakes and has a scorpion tail.

After these two monsters got together, a total of three Elder spawns were laid. One of them hatched into the great demon Sithorn, the second hatched into the snake god Set, and the third hatched into the snake god Seth. This is the witch Angboda.

The three brothers and sisters have embarked on different paths. The eldest brother and the second brother want to eat up the gods of the earth to gain power, so they have a fight with Oshtu and Gaia. That is an old topic, so let’s skip it for now.

Although Angboda is the daughter of the past, she doesn't like fighting and doesn't want to eat other gods, so she ran away with the World Tree Yggdrasil.

Tens of thousands of years later, World Tree said: "Let's find a place to settle down. It's not good to wander in the universe all the time. The earth will definitely not go back. I sold Ao Shutu during the team battle. She must not like me anymore." . ’

Angboda suggested to Yggdrasil: ‘Can’t you create dimensions? You can create a few kingdoms, and I will choose the one I like to live in. If there are enemies in the future, I will face them together with you. ’

So the World Tree agreed, and it created nine realms, plus the eternal connection between it and the earth, making a total of ten realms.

The witch visited all nine countries except the earth, and finally lived in the ice and snow of Jotunheim. At that time, the earth was turned upside down by the war between the four ancient gods, and there was lava or thick smoke everywhere. She even I like the cool environment of ice and snow.

The days went on like this. The bored two people created some small creatures in the Nine Realms to play with. These were the predecessors of various giants, light elves, dwarves and other races.

Later, I don’t know how many years later, some second-generation gods who escaped from the earth were also led to Asgard by the World Tree, and they are the ancestors of today’s Asa and Warner Protoss.

In short, Angrboda usually disguises herself as an extremely beautiful frost giantess, lives somewhere inside Jotunheim, conducts her weird experiments, and looks at the frost giant she created during her breaks. People chewing ice cubes and playing with them is quite interesting.

Many people have read Marvel movies and comics and always feel that they don’t understand why Odin doesn’t eradicate the Frost Giants? Obviously they are not too strong!

So we came to the conclusion that Odin is Mary's disease.

In fact, Odin is smarter. Angerboda lives in seclusion in Jotunheim. She may find it a bit interesting when you occasionally come over to chop down hundreds or thousands of frost giants, just like a gladiatorial show. Look. A lively atmosphere.

But if you wipe out the Frost Giants, see if the creators of the giants will jump out and attack you.

It is true that Odin is the heavenly father, but a being like Angboda was born at the level of an ancient god hundreds of millions of years ago, and is still an old friend with Yggdrasil. Can he afford to offend him?

In the early years, Thor had planned to occupy Jotunheim, exterminate the Frost Giants, invade the army, bomb the Rainbow Bridge and other plans at every turn, but Odin didn't even bother to explain to him and just locked him up.

Otherwise, what can I say? Talk about the first generation of god war on earth? Talk about the Great Old Ones? That those unspeakable monsters are around?

Thor's brain is not good to begin with, what if he goes crazy?

In short, things were almost like this. In the past, she had watched the war between the ice giants and the Asa Protoss, and saw young Odin defeating Laufei and taking away Laufei's son. More than ten years later, she discovered that the man who had been killed back then was The kidnapped child sneaked back to Jotunheim.

He had no idea that he was a Frost Giant, and now he looked like an Asir.

Angboda became interested. We need to get some DNA to study this.

So she used her extraordinary abilities and the power of the Creator to control the young Loki to contribute 'tadpoles'. She then used these tadpoles and the eggs of the past that she didn't know where to get for fusion experiments.

Afterwards, she threw Loki, who had no memory at all, back to the Golden Palace without anyone noticing. Later, Odin dug out his eyes and learned about this from the World Tree.

The God-King had no choice but to return to the Golden Palace and promulgate a decree prohibiting the Aesir from going to Jotunheim from now on.

This time Angboda created Fenrir, Jormungandr, a wolf and a snake. They can also talk and call her mother, which is quite fun.

From then on, she often peeked at Loki to see how her 'seed bank' was doing.

She discovered that Thor started playing with Balder and ignored little Loki, which led him to create a girl named Leah in the storybook as his fantasy playmate...

She granted Loki's wish and made the story come true.

This Leanne came from the story and became Loki's playmate, but finally went to the underworld millions of years ago. She is today's Hela. In order to ensure that Hela has a companion, Angboda sent Fenrir .

But its ability to speak is sealed to prevent the stupid dog from saying anything.

When Jormungandr grew up, he went to Asgard to eat people, and was defeated by Odin. The god-king who didn't know its origin originally wanted to kill him, but Yggdrasil intervened.

"If you want to kill someone else's son, you must sacrifice your son's life in exchange. The only one who can kill Jormungandr is your son."

Odin understood at that time that this giant snake was also the creation of the old witch, so he could not kill it. He should first throw it into the sea of ​​the earth and give it to Emperor Weishan to give it a headache.

Jörmungandr grew infinitely in the sea, and was even so huge that it could crush the earth with its body. In the end, Emperor Weishan moved it to the "inner dimension" close to reality, where it waited for its fate. .

So in a way, Jormungandr, who is attacking now, can be regarded as Hela's eldest brother?

Who knows, Su Ming couldn't tell whether the snake was a male or a female anyway. He just hoped that Badr would hold on tight first and not hit the wrong person with Gungnir. This big snake was not the 'big snake'.

‘Tsk, I’m afraid of something, I have to trip him up. ’

Watching the God of Light raise his divine spear with enthusiasm, aiming at the earthly python in the sky on the violently shaking ground.

The giant wooden Daksu fell to the ground without leaving a trace, and suddenly rolled out the totem pole in the direction of where Balder was standing. He even exclaimed in embarrassment:

"Oops, my hand slipped!"
