The Death Knell

When Diana and Carol dealt with tens of thousands of troll armies, the relationship between the two women improved a lot.

"You are quite powerful. Even without using weapons, your destructive power is much greater than any lantern I have ever seen."

Wonder Woman's Vulcan sword is so sharp that it breaks hair and kills people without drawing blood. At this time, she is standing on the high pile of corpses, wiping the blood on her face with the back of her hand, and praising Carol's performance with a smile. combat effectiveness.

What's more, Captain Marvel is also good at formations. Many of Amazon's two-person tactics are very similar to the two-plane formation tactics of fighter jets. Xiao Dai feels that they work well together.

Compared with Carol, the other female superheroes in the Justice League are much weaker, because on Earth 0, they simply couldn't keep up with their charge!

"It's okay. Actually, I'm not the strongest female superhero in this universe." Carol grinned broadly and grabbed a rag to wipe the blood on her hands: "You haven't seen Jean Gray and Ancient One. Master, they can all fight better than me."

She was not being modest, she was just telling the truth. As a soldier, she had always been very frank.

"Actually, I have met Master Ancient One." Diana stepped down from the mountain of corpses, and the broken corpses and blood covered her calves: "She once went to the Kingdom of Maia to look for the death knell, and I was there at that time. "

"I don't know where you are talking about. It sounds like something related to magic, so I probably don't understand it." Carol's whole body was burning with the light of cosmic energy. She was floating in the air. It's quite clean: "Let's go to Deathstroke. He and Squirrel seem to have taken care of the Troll King."

"Well, let's go, sister."

Diana threw the mantra lasso, tied it to a raised stone pillar on the top of the cave, and jumped up like a swing.

In fact, Carol did not use the double star form, and Diana did not take off the bracelet to release the seal. Today's battle with the troll army was already very restrained for them.

There's nothing you can do about it. Why is Alfheim such a beautiful country? Besides, Harley and Gwen are still playing somewhere, so they can't smash this planet to pieces, right?

The two of them crossed the lake with corpses everywhere, flew across the lake, and came to the other side of the lake. In the colorful reflection of the lake, they saw Deathstroke teaching the squirrel how to make human heads.

"Alfheim's agriculture is very developed, but it's a pity that there is no gold." Su Ming said something that no one could understand, and grabbed a handful of lime and wiped it on Yurik's head: "But there are also simple soils with underdeveloped technology. The solution is to use lime as a dehydrating agent to preserve the collected heads."

He actually learned this from "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". The ancients of the Chinese Dynasty had mastered this technique. Although it is not as effective as mercury antisepsis, the advantage is that it is easy to obtain materials.

This is an underground cave. There are stalactites and other things everywhere. Just use the Cosmic Cube to create a forge and burn it to get quicklime. Then get some glutinous rice flour to increase the stickiness.

At this time, the squirrel felt a little sympathetic to Yurik. She changed back to the little red squirrel, pulled the floral scarf around her neck, leaned over and poked the two-meter-high bald head with her little paws, and said:

"But he's not dead yet, why are you preserving his head?"

Yes, she was right. The Troll King's physique was simply exaggerated. Not long ago, Su Ming grabbed his head and the squirrel grabbed his body, tearing him into two pieces and dividing his body. However, he was still not completely dead, and even Can talk.

"Thank you for being a veteran of World Tree, you didn't guess what I wanted to do?" Deathstroke picked up the little squirrel in a funny way, put her on his shoulders, and at the same time asked Strangler to use his tentacles to speed up the plastering: " Have you forgotten Mimir’s story?”

Mimir in the Marvel universe is an Asir clan. He is famous for digging out and drinking the spring of wisdom. It is the pool next to the roots of the world tree. There are three women spinning beside it. Su Ming Come and come too.

He is the brother of King Baur and the uncle of Odin.

The story about Mimir has been recorded in the poems "V? Dew spá" and "Private grdrífumál" in Asgard's "Edda".

"V? Lu spá" records that Odin was beaten miserably by King Crow of the dark elves. He wanted to gain knowledge and wisdom to defeat the enemy, so he used the elven mead of Alfheim to his uncle who guarded the fountain of wisdom. Mimir tried to become wise in exchange for water from the spring.

But he was too reckless when he was young, and the water from the Fountain of Wisdom was not effective enough. After drinking several large barrels, young Odin was still a reckless man.

At this time, Mimir came up with an idea and asked Odin to pray and make a wish to the World Tree. In the end, Odin successfully received the wisdom of the World Tree on the condition of having one eye and hanging on the tree to bleed for seven days.

In view of the fact that World Tree itself was originally a neutral faction among the ancient gods of the earth and did not like fighting, after receiving this wisdom, or becoming the spokesman of World Tree, Odin slowly became peaceful over tens of thousands of years. The methods used are much more peaceful than before.

One of the words Odin often says is "I am Asgard." In fact, he said it from the standpoint of the spokesperson of the World Tree, but Thor and Loki couldn't understand it.

"Private grdrífumál" records Mimir's subsequent fate. Mimir, who was a peace hostage at that time, was in Vanaheim. Odin, who had just received wisdom, was not that smart, but because too much knowledge was stuffed into his mind. In such chaos, they forgot about the existence of the hostages for a while and chose to launch an all-out war against Vanaheim.

So Mimir was beheaded by the father of the sisters Gullweg and Frigga, the head was soaked in mead, and the body was thrown under the World Tree and fed to the black dragon.

The ancient poem "V?lva", also known as "The Witch's Prophecy", tells the fate of this head. After Odin forcibly married Frigga, he also brought Mimir's head back to Asgard. This head Still alive, every time in the dead of night, Odin would always close the door and discuss various national affairs with the clever Mimir.

This uncle did not blame Odin at all. Instead, he gave advice to Asgard and was extremely loyal. Until Odin gradually mastered the wisdom of all the world trees and no longer needed his uncle's help, he put him in a position where he could I went to retire to a place where I could drink unlimited mead.

But in Ragnarok, Su Ming didn't see this talking head. It wasn't in the treasury, let alone the Hall of Heroes. Who knows who took it away.

But it doesn’t matter, it was just a toy to begin with, and now Deathstroke has his own ‘talking head’.

"It's true, the talking head is really good. If I were an ancient Celtic, I could be a king just by mastering the talking head."

Looking at the white-painted troll's head, Deathstroke nodded with satisfaction, took out the stone blocking Yurik's mouth, and asked with a smile:

"By the way, Yurik, how are you feeling now? What do you want to say?"

The troll king, who has no organs or lungs, can really speak, which is quite miraculous, but what he said did not exceed Su Ming's expectations. He just said:

"kill me"

But he fell into the trap when he opened his mouth. Deathstroke had Strangler stuff several tons of quicklime into the troll's mouth in an instant. After all, the embalming work had to be done comprehensively.

Seeing that the enemy's tongue and mouth were beginning to become dehydrated, and hot bubbles began to roll, Deathstroke patted the troll's face and said expressionlessly:

"Thank you for trying my death package, which is called life is worse than death. I will hang your head on display in a crowded place, so that they can all hear your whine and see the consequences of invading the earth. And this The torture will continue forever."
