Chapter 851: Chapter 33 I am still just a Lolita, please be gentle with me
Rushing ahead with the speed of lightning.
Luo En traveled quickly according to Celebrian’s directions, while learning from this Elf Girl about the current situation of the Nine Great Kingdoms.
Firstly, Asgard.
Since the Warner and Asa Divine Races formed an alliance, hundreds of years had passed. During this period, the Immortal Palace saw unprecedented development, the number of newly born deities surged, faith spread throughout the Nine Great Kingdoms, and even the combat strength of the Chief Gods and above increased significantly, totaling ten divine beings:
Odin — King of Gods, master of knowledge, wisdom, and arts;
Freya — Queen of Gods, master of marriage and family;
Loki — King of Midgard, master of fire and deceit;
Freyja — Queen of Valkyries, commanding the renowned Valkyrie Corps, also the goddess of fertility and love;
Frey — King of Elves, master of fertility, prosperity, and peace;
Thor — Thunder God, master of strength, storms, war, and agriculture;
Sif — Goddess of land and harvest;
Tyr — God of war, guarantor of contracts, protector of oaths;
Heimdall — Guardian God, defender of the Rainbow Bridge, gatekeeper of the Immortal Palace;
Bujira — God of poetry, wisdom, and eloquence;
Apart from Balder, the God of Light, and Hod, the God of Darkness, whom Luo En remembered, the Immortal Palace’s high-end combat power was nearly complete, and its strength definitively surpassed the other eight great kingdoms, continuously achieving victories in external wars, and gradually solidifying its leading position among the Nine Great Kingdoms.
Of course, the Warner Divine Race played an indispensable role in progressing this quickly.
Freya, Freyja, and Frey, the three hostages transferred to Asgard, were not only the bonds of their alliance but also the epitomes of the Life Authority of the Warner Divine Race.
Their addition allowed the Asa Divine Race to cover their last weakness, gaining powerful blessings in reproduction and childbirth, thus the population of the Immortal Palace exploded, and their strength leaped qualitatively.
It was also because of foreseeing these developments that Odin was willing to forsake his daughter Hela to make an alliance with Warner.
However, compared to the Warner Divine Race, which paid a great price for the union, Odin was much slipperier.
The two hostages he sent to Valhalla, one was the Wisdom Giant Mimir, known for his wisdom, and the other was Heinir, the tall, dignified, and imposing King of Mud.
Upon their arrival at Valhalla, the Warner Divine Race was impressed by their appearances and eloquence, thus warmly welcomed them.
Even Freya’s brother—Sea God Niord, who was left to guard Valhalla—voluntarily gave up the position of Warner Divine King to Heinir, showing he had no greed for power and was sincerely committed to the union.
However, Heinir was only impressive in appearance, excessively slow in reaction, and utterly useless. All his responses in Valhalla were managed by Mimir, and without Mimir, he would only stammer and embarrass himself.
In truth, Heinir was not an actual Asa deity but a marsh crane transformed by Illusion Technique and Transformation Technique. The titles “Langifótr (long-legged)” and “Aurkonungr (King of Mud)” were derived from its biological features.
The Warner folk never considered that if such a person really existed, Odin, who absorbed the Divine War, would have thrown him onto the battlefield to serve him—why would he hide him until the reconciliation between both factions was barely known?
Consequently, after his true identity was exposed, Heinir transformed back into a crane and flew away.
And Mimir, also left behind, was no less cunning; he often gave unsolicited advice leveraging his elder status and reputation as a Wisdom Giant.
Gradually, even the good-tempered former Warner Divine King Niord became infuriated, and in a moment of rage, along with the infuriated Warner gods, decapitated Mimir, sending his head back to Odin as a vent for the deceit suffered by the Warner Divine Race.
Odin knew he was at fault and did not retaliate, merely covering the head with herbs to prevent it from decaying. Then Freya recited runes and used Said Witchcraft to keep Mimir’s head alive.
Thus, Mimir survived in the form of a head, preserved by Odin and serving as a humanoid encyclopedia.
However, according to Luo En’s guess, Mimir’s downfall was partially due to his blunt nature, and the other part was due to his grand-nephew Odin’s actions.
After all, Odin did not wish to have such an uncle who, relying on his status, would often interfere in Asgard. But due to familial ties, he could not act directly against him.
Thus, the Warner Divine Race became the knife for the murder, conveniently dealing with this meddlesome uncle.
In the end, the Warner folk merely vented their anger but gained nothing; Mimir turned into an encyclopedia head, depending solely on the whims of his grand-nephew Odin to survive; while Odin and the Asa Divine Race not only gained the three powerful deities from the Warner Divine Race, boosting their strength significantly, but also resolved an internal threat, truly achieving a grand victory.
But handling matters in such an unscrupulous manner would definitely leave severe consequences.
At least for now, the Warner Divine Race has developed a thorn in their hearts and will not easily trust the reliability of old slick Odin anymore.
Gains and losses, Luo En also found it difficult to judge, as he had heard the news from Celebrian, and the content might also contain errors and exaggerations.
As the sun set and the full moon rose, Luo En estimated his journey, confirming he was not far from the lair of the Dark Elves, he decided to rest overnight in the wilderness, and would set off the next day.
What do you think?
