Chapter 493: Children, can’t eat

 Lu Yao saw it very clearly.

The Nibelungen family has obvious advantages and disadvantages.

 Take Bernie, adopted by Zikad, as an example.

 …

  【Nibelungen LV13】Bernie

  【Growth period】

 It is in the growth stage and can absorb ice elements to complete rapid evolution.

  【Road of Evolution】

 There will be fusion between the same kind, with the strongest individual as the core, and then gain stronger expansion and living space.

 …

Bernie's teenage body is already in the [Growth Stage], while when he was an infant and child it was the [Infancy Stage]. This is a special growth system belonging to the Kingdom of Mist.

 Further, he is a giant in the [mature body].

As described in the committee database, Nibelung refers to the special race of humans living here and is also another name for Niflheim.

 To understand the structural form of the Kingdom of Mist, we must go back to the source.

“The Kingdom of Fog is part of the World Tree Yggdrasil. It is one of the nine worlds on the World Tree. It is also one of the three major roots of the World Tree.”

"The poisonous dragon Nidhogg gnaws at the root of this tree and absorbs the giant poison in the inexhaustible spring of Hwagmir. When he finally bites it off, the world tree will wither and Ragnarok will begin. Ragnarok will begin. The advent also announced the disintegration and disintegration of the Norse mythology lineage."

This passage is a familiar story from Norse mythology, with just a few important details added.

Lu Yao had an intuitive understanding of the toxicity of the Eternal Fountain. Even the famous poisonous dragon was attracted by it, which shows that the ice spring poison is indeed the top in the poison world.

 Then the other is the Norse mythology genealogy.

After holding onto divine principles, Lu Yao had a vague feeling that the mythological systems constructed by humans in different regions seemed to have the shadow of divine principles and weaving myths behind them.

 The committee’s database confirmed his suspicion.

Norse mythology genealogy is a huge system jointly created by many ancient Nordic voyagers.

This mythological genealogy not only includes the conventional [Creation] and [Miracles], but also clear [World Structure], [Mythical Creatures], and even [Destruction].

 The entire mythological system is very complete from beginning to end.

 This is also one of the tree-like civilizations built by humans in the virtual universe in the real universe.

What is little known is that after the Norse mythology entered the stage of extinction, the Norse gods in this mythology did not disappear. They just broke away from the World Tree system constructed in the past and returned to independent entities.

As those familiar gods disappeared, their titles and powers still existed, mostly inherited by those who came after them.

 [King of Gods Odin], [Thunder God], [God of Trickery Loki]...their stories and civilization pictures are still being secretly performed and written.

Lu Yao looked back at his [Tree of Silvanus]. Compared to the huge World Tree, what he held could only be regarded as a stunted sapling.

 Let it grow slowly.

The Kingdom of Mist is originally one of the nine worlds on the World Tree, so strictly speaking, it is a special small world. It was only seriously damaged during [Twilight of the Gods] and is now bordered and harmonized by Lu Yao and Yunzhong Temple. Fusion.

According to the positioning of the nine worlds, the Kingdom of Fog is the destination for patients who are about to die. The toxins condensed by the disease will be solidified and frozen by glaciers in this world.

 In order to prevent these fatal poisons from spreading and flowing out, the original holders created the Nibelungen race.

 They are containers used to carry these toxins, and the blue blood flowing in the body is highly concentrated toxins.

 These containers will eventually merge with each other to form a more stable and easy-to-use advanced body—the Giant of the Land of Mist.

 Committee records show that there are two types of giants in the Kingdom of Mist.

 One is the Frost Giant.

This kind of giant uses ice as the main structure of its body and can carry a large amount of toxins. They can further compress and transform toxins, turning them into powerful forces that react with ice elements - just like some kind of fuel.

 The second one is Ymir, the giant of life.

In the genealogy of Norse mythology, Ymir is the original giant and the first giant born in the Kingdom of Mist. However, unlike those who came later, he was born from the interaction between the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Mist.

Ymir split other giants from his body. Later, he was killed by Odin, the king of gods. After his death, Ymir's body evolved into elves and dwarves.

Many scholars are also confused about this.

"Ymir was born from an inexhaustible fountain of poison, but has a surging and magnificent vitality. Not only can she give birth to giants, but her corpse can further evolve life. This is incompatible with the coldness and poison shown in the Kingdom of Mist. It's a pity. , after the death of Ymir, no living giants were born. It was not until Ragnarok that the divine order of the World Tree collapsed, and the genealogy restoration could no longer be completed. No matter how much speculation and judgment was made, it was limited to thought experiments."

Lu Yao finally figured out why no one wanted the Kingdom of Mist on the exchange.

 It is a component of the World Tree, and its value lies in its linkage with other parts to produce a chemical reaction, just like the effects of the Kingdom of Mist and the Kingdom of Fire that produced Ymir.

The Kingdom of Mist itself is a poisonous pot. Individual abilities and characteristics have little value, but the premium is high due to its reputation.

 In present-day Niflheim, only one light blue frost giant has been born.

 …

 【Frost Giant LV49】Balaas

 Health: 4882/4882

 Mana: 891/891

  Damage: 82

 Defense: 50

 Speed: 14

 【Ice Elemental Mystery LV18】

  【Frost Poison LV18】

  【Maturity period】

 In the mature stage, it can convert other elements into ice elements.

  【Road of Evolution LV2】

 Can grow further by devouring Nibelung roots.

 【Giant of the Country of Mist】

The giant race originating from the Kingdom of Mist.

 …

Seeing the abilities of the Frost Giant, Lu Yao completed the last piece of the puzzle in his mind.

 The Kingdom of Fog is indeed a world box where toxins are stored and collected. However, these toxins with extremely high fatality rates are a special kind of power and raw materials.

The sleeping Nibelung roots are the inexhaustible spring that stores and processes toxins, and further stimulates the evolved life.

 The source of the giants are the many Nibelungen children, who will blend with each other to form giants.

 Poison is a destructive corrosive force and a driving force for change.

 The Eternal Fountain is like an artificial womb. It flows and fuses toxins, making them full of activity. On this basis, the Nibelung family is condensed and bred.

The Yao people were able to break through bottlenecks and invent [Beautiful Mixture] and [Spiritual Pills]. The core is the water of the Eternal Spring, which contains a power that can breed and combine various elements.

 But even if you know these secrets, the way of using the Kingdom of Mist itself is very harsh, and the threshold is very high, so it is normal for no one to care about it.

Just when Lu Yao was exploring the Kingdom of Mist, the simulator gave a prompt.

  【Bernie invented: the rotating lens】

  【Bernie invented: the collector crystal phase】

 Lu Yao clicked on it and took a look.

 Originally it was a focusing lens and a portable camera.

Zikad, an old comrade, is good at training young people.

 At this time, young Bernie was shouting in the Kingdom of Fog.

“I won’t eat you, and you don’t have to be eaten by giants!”

"There is a bigger world outside the Kingdom of Mist. There are cities of the Yao people over there, there are all kinds of people, and there are many incredible things. If you are willing, go out of here and go there to see it!"

 The children in Nibelungen all raised question marks and exclamation marks.

 “Outside...is there ice outside?”

"I can not…"

 “I don’t want to be eaten, I want to get out of here.”

 “…Bernie’s shoes are really nice.”

“The giant is coming, is the giant coming? I feel it, I feel it!”

 …

 Children have different ideas, but the Frost Giant is indeed not far away.

A drooling expression appeared on the top of the blue giant's head.

However, it did not dare to move a single step.

 Because the Blood Knight Nevid stood in front of it, like an insurmountable mountain.

 “Get out, kid, you can’t eat.”

　　　…”

 The Frost Giant drooped his head and turned away dejectedly.

 A new message appears on the screen.

—A believer has developed wisdom. Do I need to transform him into a prophet?

There was a shimmering light at Bernie's feet.

 Lu Yao’s point is.

As he became a prophet, the Nibelungen who was the first to leave the Kingdom of Mist also had his own portrait.

The vertical painting shows a silver-haired young man holding a collector's crystal. He is carrying a heavy baggage and has bright eyes. He followed a tall figure in front of him. The figure was wearing a robe and only a skull was exposed.

 Written below.

—It’s okay if you don’t want to grow up.

Bernie immediately knelt down after sensing it: "Thank you, Lord Yao, for your gift! Thank you for your love! Great God Yao!"

Then he cheerfully announced the good news to Chicard beside him: "Teacher, I am a prophet!"

　　A big laugh also appeared on the skull's head.

 …

 At this time, it is displayed on the screen.

　　【Apostle Nevid prays to you. 】

 Blood Knight?

 Lu Yao was a little surprised.

 This is a rare visitor. Speaking of which, this was the first time that the blood knight actively requested a conversation. He was usually taciturn, but he would do whatever Lu Yao asked him to do.

 Lu Yao clicked on the entry.

　　The screen jumps to the side of the Eternal Fountain.

 The Blood Knight knelt down on one knee: "Lord Yao, the giant, wants to leave the Kingdom of Mist. It wants to go out and have a look."

It turns out that the Frost Giant was always greedy for the children of Nibelungen. He was taught a lesson by the Blood Knight several times and became a lot more honest. However, he was very depressed in the Kingdom of Mist. It had to restrain its instinct to eat children. The ice element it absorbed was indifferent to it, and its growth fell into a long-term stagnation.

Lu Yao thinks it’s pretty good.

 At any rate, he is now an adult giant, and it’s time to go out and see the world.

 Young people always yearn for distant places for a while, and they will feel suffocated in their hometown.

The pixel villains in Sand City have been at ease for many years, so let the Frost Giants go out to increase the strength of the extraordinary people in Sand City, or be increased in strength, no matter what, it is not a loss.

Thank you: I will only support 500 starting coins a little bit.
