Chapter 2116: The Destination of Death (Please give me a monthly ticket!!! Please subscribe!!! Please recommend!!!)
Since the kids want to go to the underwater world, then let them go. It's not like they don't have the conditions. As for the pineapple house or the underwater oak house... these kinds of entertainment facilities are not difficult for the people of Atlantis.
"You heard me, Arthur. As punishment for losing the artifact... you have to tell Atlanna and the others to prepare a playground for my babies." Kai said to Arthur.
So, even if this matter is over.
There is no way to avoid exposing the past. What can he do?
Arthur scratched his head and thought it was completely acceptable. He thought Kai would be angry, but it turned out that it was okay.
"Theresa, take your sisters out to play. Daddy still has some work to do for the time being." Kai said to Theresa in a gentle voice. Although Emma is the leader, Theresa is the older sister and this must be respected, otherwise Theresa will be embarrassed.
Theresa shrugged and looked at Emma.
Emma nodded reluctantly. She really wanted to know what her father was hiding. She didn't use her ability to spy on Alfred or Arthur. This was absolutely not allowed. Wayne and Raven strictly forbade her to do so. But she was keenly aware that her father was hiding something. However, as the most sensible child, she still didn't take the initiative to expose it.
After the three children left.
Kai's voice immediately became serious: "Arthur, continue."
Arthur was stunned. He really thought that everything was over and that he would go after the thief next. But it seemed that was not the case. Arthur continued to narrate without hesitation.
About half an hour later, Arthur told him everything he knew three times without getting tired of it.
"Okay, that's about it. Arthur... things are getting complicated."
Kai thought about it and decided not to keep hiding it from Arthur any longer. He was trustworthy.
"So...what happened?"
"I know who the thief is. Didn't you ask me before why I wasn't in New York and why I hadn't been heard of anywhere else? I tell you, I've been waiting for the thief you mentioned."
"So who is he?"
"The God Butcher - Gir, a madman who slaughters gods, well, the kind of gods you understand, and beings like Poseidon, the god of the sea. He has killed many, and even frightened Zeus and other gods. He is now planning to invade the inner world, and then use the most core things in the inner world to create an unprecedented bomb to kill all the gods in the universe!" Kai said.
"Huh?" Arthur felt that the matter was serious, but it seemed... not that serious.
After all, gods are immortal... He really doesn't feel anything. After all, he himself doesn't believe in gods. He doesn't even believe in Poseidon, the god of the sea!
"Don't you think that those gods and spirits, whether dead or alive, have nothing to do with you or us?"
Kai was very sensitive to Arthur's thoughts... Actually, he didn't need to be very sensitive, he thought the same thing. If Gert didn't come to Earth...
"I understand your thoughts. To be frank, I think the same. In fact, those gods who left the earth have long since fallen to the point where they can no longer be human. It would be best if they died. But... this madman has set his sights on the earth... things have become very bad. Dear Arthur, have you seen how the world has changed now?"
Kai asked.
"Yes... Could it be..."
"Yes, you know some of the situations in the inner world. This thing is closely related to the earth. If the inner world is destroyed, the earth will be doomed. This is what Geer is doing now. It's a pity... I seem to have been fooled."
Everyone thought that Gel was planning to destroy the Great Guardian and enter the inner world, but this guy played a feint on everyone and turned around to grab the Trident of Poseidon.
This was something Kai had not expected.
No one else expected it either.
"Then..." Arthur panicked. If the gods died, they died. It didn't matter to Arthur if all of them died. But if the earth was destroyed, everyone would be destroyed with it. This was a disaster.
"It's okay. I'm already in the center of the earth."
In fact, when Kai was talking to Arthur, he had already turned around and rushed to the center of the earth. It didn't need to be so troublesome. With the Trident of Poseidon, Kai could enter the center of the earth in the next second, but the problem was... wasn't this thing lost?
So he can only rely on Kingsman's teleportation device!
Fortunately, there is Kamar-Taj's teleportation spell that can be used... By the way, I want to emphasize that Kamar-Taj's teleportation spell cannot enter the inner world. The previous entry was entirely because Kai had the Trident of Poseidon and took the initiative to release the authority, so Kamar-Taj could enter. Later, Kamar-Taj took the initiative to give up this authority. Ancient One believed that since the inner world of the earth has never been mastered by the wizards since ancient times, it means that the immortals obviously did not intend to let the wizards master it, so they simply did not get involved.
Except for the first time when he mastered some necessary information, Kamar-Taj completely lost the qualifications to enter here.
So Kamar-Taj's magic can only send Kai to Kingsman's teleportation device, and then enter the inner world with Kai through the teleportation device!
In addition, because of this, Thor also brought some Asgard elites to the earth through the Rainbow Bridge, and also entered the inner earth.
Gu Yi and Kai also had a brief and heated argument about this.
Finally, facing the greatest threat, Ancient One and Kai reached a consensus, but Ancient One needed Thor's guarantee that the Asgardians would never allow anything about the inner world to be disclosed!
Although the Asgardians were very dissatisfied with Ancient One's attitude.
For the Asgardians, not being able to boast about their achievements is already unbearable... These space Vikings are basically the same as the ancient Vikings.
What does a Viking smell like?
The image of Viking warriors in people's minds is often that of fully armed, brave and fearless. However, the lifestyle of the Vikings in the Middle Ages, which they lived in, may seem more primitive than our modern cognition. It is a historical consensus that the Vikings loved war and belligerence. From the 8th century AD to the 11th century AD, the Vikings dominated the European oceans and no one was their rival. The Viking warriors were skilled in combat and valued death more than life. No soldier wanted to meet this group of Nordic pirates on the battlefield.
There is indeed a type of berserker among the Vikings. They are bloodthirsty and warlike, and they only advance and never retreat. They can be called "battlefield killers". The Vikings believed that the reason why berserkers have extraordinary fighting ability and the furious blood flowing in their bodies is entirely due to the preference of the god of war Odin. In the Nordic legend of Valhalla, berserkers are called "Odin's favorites". They "rush forward without armor, biting their shields from time to time, like mad dogs and wolves." "Their arms are like wild bears and wild boars... Fire and knife cuts cannot hurt these warriors, they will fall into madness and cannot extricate themselves."
The berserker's frenzy was called "Berserkergang", a word that is still used today and is used to describe "going crazy" in English. The image of a berserker biting his shield when he goes crazy is not groundless. In Lewis chess, which was popular in Northern Europe in the 12th century, there were warriors biting their shields. In the eyes of modern people, berserkers may be a manifestation of "madness", but realistically speaking, in the era of cold weapons, the momentum on the battlefield often determines the outcome, and warriors who are obsessed with killing can often deal a fatal blow to the enemy from a spiritual and practical perspective. Berserkers are not crazy, but they are eager for victory.
First, the Vikings emphasized courage as a core virtue. In their society, brave acts were seen as a symbol of honor. Viking warriors were known for their fearless courage, and their heroic deeds on the battlefield endowed them with endless prestige. This cultural emphasis on courage was not only reflected in war, but also throughout the Vikings' explorations and adventures. Honor was another concept that was highly valued in Viking culture. The Vikings focused on maintaining personal and family honor and believed that honor was a precious treasure. Losing honor could lead to social ostracism, so the Vikings worked hard to maintain their honor through brave acts and upright character. This obsession with honor was not only manifested at the individual level, but also had a profound impact on the entire Viking society.
Freedom is another important part of the Vikings' cultural values. The Vikings emphasized individual autonomy and independence and opposed restraint and oppression. This emphasis on freedom was reflected in their social structure and legal system, which provided the Vikings with greater freedom and enabled them to demonstrate flexibility and innovation in trade, exploration and settlement.
In addition, the spirit of adventure runs through every aspect of Viking culture. Through bold seafaring activities, the Vikings explored and settled in places far away from their homeland, and established a glorious seafaring empire. Curiosity about the unknown and the desire for adventure drove the Vikings to constantly pursue new challenges, making them famous adventurers and explorers in history.
The Vikings were warlike because they believed that fighting was the most glorious thing. As Tacitus once said about the Germanic barbarians: "In their view, it is a shame to buy something with blood and sweat!" This belief and value has left a deep mark on the Vikings in history. Some of the Vikings' qualities, such as loyalty to oaths, keeping promises, and adhering to discipline without losing self-respect, are also impressive.
These stereotyped or non-stereotypical impressions can also be used to describe the Asgardians!
After all, they are just enhanced version of space Vikings!
The Asgardians valued military exploits more than the Vikings. Gol was a man that the Pantheon feared. If they could fight him, it would be a great honor for the Asgardians even if they died in battle. Death in battle was an honor for the Asgardians, and the stronger the enemy, the more honorable it was to die in battle.
Since it is an honor, of course we have to let others know about it. If we don’t let others know about it, the honor will be greatly reduced.
But now Gu Yi asked them to keep it a secret... and more importantly, asked them to swear an oath!
It is already too much that the glory cannot be praised. Asking them to swear never to disclose it involves another thing, which is trust!
This is a lack of trust in their honor!
Although we cannot exaggerate and lose honor points, the problem is that what happened has happened. Even if we cannot publicize it, they still have honor. After they agreed, we still asked them to swear not to disclose it. This is a serious lack of trust and a manifestation of contempt for them!
This can't be tolerated.
The Asgardians actually understand the importance of the Ancient One better than the people on Earth, but that doesn't mean they are afraid.
So they immediately started to make a commotion.
But Thor stepped forward and suppressed his warriors.
He could understand the seriousness of the inner world.
He took the lead in swearing.
Fortunately, Thor's majesty was enough to suppress these warriors.
They followed suit and swore.
……
"I never thought I would come back here. I thought I could only come back here after my soul returned to heaven and earth."
Gu Yi's tired condition improved.
It's not that the situation was under control, but Kai directly used a large amount of dragon bone extract to forcibly pull him back to the state. It must be said that dragon bone extract is really a panacea. As long as the target is still a living being, it can pull him back to the best state.
Of course, considering the quality of Gu Yi's life...the dragon bone extract he gave made Kai feel painful.
Kai has a lot of this stuff, but it is a non-renewable resource after all, so if he gives a little bit, it will be less!
Mordo was surprised: "You will come back here after you die?"
Mordo is one of the few mages who is extremely attached to the Ancient One. In fact, no one wants the Ancient One to die, but at the same time, everyone understands how exhausted the Ancient One is. Death is definitely a reward for her.
Therefore, most people can look at the end of Ancient One more calmly.
But Mordo's feelings towards Ancient One are more complicated.
It's not a bloody plot like love between a man and a woman, but a story about a mother and a child, a father and a child. In short, it's very pure and complex. Ancient One replaces the parents in Mordo's emotional projection!
After all, Mordo never really had parents.
So Mordo is very attached to Ancient One and always wants to stay with him more, but on the other hand, just like a child to a seriously ill parent, he is afraid that they will leave, but he also knows that keeping them will torture them... It's very complicated.
"Yes, I didn't know that before." Ancient One did not shy away from talking about her own death. She even talked about it often, just like what Dumbledore liked to say, 'Death is another adventure.'
That's what death is to her.
"I've been curious about this before. The souls of our Kamar-Taj mages are obviously stronger than those of ordinary humans. But why is it that ordinary humans can become ghosts, but there has never been such an example among our mages?"
Ancient One talked about a secret that was not a secret among the wizard community.
Yes, that is, no wizard's ghost has ever appeared.
But this is not normal.
After all, when they are alive, their souls can move around everywhere, but after death there is no residue left, which is very strange.
Mordo and other mages also fell into deep thought. Many people have studied this topic, but there is no answer, because no mage has ever appeared in front of his descendants after his death. This is very strange.
"It wasn't until I came here last time that I realized that this place would give me a familiar feeling."
After Ancient One said this, other mages had similar feelings.
At first everyone thought that this was due to the connection between the inner world and the Great Guardian.
Now it seems that it is not that simple.
"Yes, this is where we belong."
Ancient One smiled and said, "This is why I have been forbidding everyone to come back here. It is better to have some boundaries between the dead and the living."
However, other mages thought that this was Ancient One's way of preventing any unfilial bastards from disturbing her vacation in the future.
