The underworld snake plunged into the ground and its form fully expanded.

Nidhogg returned to a huge black shadow, slowly changing on the ground.

The most feared thing of the underworld snake is the sun. Under the sun, the underworld snake is extremely weak and will even turn into a black stone statue, making it difficult to move. So there aren't many places it can go. At least the Kingdom of Mist can still move.

 In the darkness, the underworld snake can return to its strongest state.

 Nothing can stop the darkness!

It crashed hard into the source of the endless fountain.

Nidhogg saw an ice sculpture standing there. It had a huge and dark body, and stretched dragon wings on its strong back.

 That was my former body.

 It has long been penetrated by tree roots and turned into nutrients for the root system.

Nidhogg smashed his own remains, and the trunk of the tree roots gradually formed a wooden giant sitting on a throne.

He wears an eagle helmet, golden armor, one eye and a long beard.

 The wooden giant held his chin with one hand and looked down at the underworld snake coldly.

“Poor Nidhogg, you gave up the chance to transform into a dragon.”

 Nidhogg rushed towards the opponent.

 He is not Odin.

Odin has fallen.

 But it found that it was not close to the opponent at all, and could not touch the [King of the Gods] who resurrected from the roots of the tree.

 “Submit to me, you weak wretch.”

 “This is your only choice.”

 The God-King’s arrogance and condescension remain the same as before.

 “Fuck you!”

Nidhogg finally cursed viciously: "King of the gods? Bullshit! You are just a blood-sucking insect who relies on all Norse mythology! Without Norse mythology, you are nothing!"

Odin's one-eyed look at the underworld snake: "A snake is a snake, and it cannot be raised well. It is only suitable to live in the sewers of the underworld."

 He raised his hand.

Countless spears appeared in the air and penetrated Nidhogg instantly.

Nidhogg is quite accustomed to this. In the past, he often received this kind of "punishment" in Norse mythology.

 It felt from the pain that it was different from the past. The Spear of Destiny [Gungunir] would never be so weak.

Nidhogg laughed: "You are just a puppet left by Odin, and you still pretend to be decent."

  “Unbridled.”

Odin’s one eye shines.

The spears turned into numerous whiskers and penetrated into Nidhogg's body, sucking the power of the underworld snake's flesh and blood crazily. Nidhogg felt himself weakening rapidly, which he was familiar with. It was this force that forced him to sleep during Ragnarok.

It drags many roots along the way and escapes to the top.

Odin also followed to the earth.

By the time he reached the ground, Nidhogg was weak and dizzy. It lay on the ground panting, feeling that it was difficult to move its body.

 In the blurred vision, a white windmill that had never been seen before appeared.

The windmill rotated slowly, bringing up the breeze, causing all the dense roots on Nidhogg's body to wither and turn into ashes.

Before Odin could react at the root of the tree, he was hit by beams of light. Gaps were burned out on his body, causing him to stagger in the air. His right shoulder and left face were blasted to bits.

What attacked him was a large silver fish head with blood-red eyes. The light beams spit out from their mouths blasted Odin to pieces, leaving him unable to fight back.

Odin's lips were slightly open at the root of the tree, and his voice was intermittent: "Be presumptuous, be presumptuous..."

He was staggering, but he couldn't even restore his broken body.

A team of Yao tribesmen appeared next to him. They sprayed a potion to make Odin on the root of the tree stiffen and fall into a deep sleep.

 Then they began to inspect and use various tools to cut and collect Odin.

The Blood Knight stood next to Nidhogg and said in a cold voice: "Thank you for your hard work."

  “Should.”

Nidhogg was currently surrounded by a group of doctors, who were skillfully treating the numerous wounds on his body, applying medicine, suturing and spraying toxins, so that he quickly regained his energy.

 Before entering the underground, it received a message from the Blood Knight.

 “Can you lead out the source below? I can handle it on the ground.”

 Although this was the first formal dialogue between it and the Blood Knight, both parties cooperated tacitly.

Nidhogg just didn’t expect that Odin on the root of the tree would be captured so easily.

Although he is a fake **** king, the abilities he displays are also at the level of gods.

Later, Nidhogg learned that the white windmill was called a [psionic blocker], which disabled active spells, props, miracles and wonders.

The roaring silver fish is called [Suyu Shou]. Not only does it have a super long attack range, it can also repel enemies and interrupt spellcasting. Its power can even kill even gods.

As soon as Root Odin landed on the ground, he became a living target with no power to fight back and became an object of study.

 The Blood Knight looked at Nidhogg.

 Through the thick helmet, the true face of this apostle cannot be seen.

 The knight clasped his right hand to the underworld snake and placed it on his left chest in respect.

Nidhogg also raised his neck and nodded solemnly in response.

 …

The area around the Eternal Fountain was quickly controlled, and Odin at the root of the tree became an experimental material for scholars. The local **** [Yiwan Shen] personally completed the appraisal.

Odin on the root of the tree is a god-like creature, or a god. He cannot use the fire of faith and miracles, but worshiping and offering sacrifices to them will also make it grow stronger.

"Billions of Bodies" believes: "He is a monster created by Odin using himself as a template, using the roots of the World Tree as a foundation, and drawing the power of the entire Kingdom of Mist from the inexhaustible spring to revive and grow."

"As expected of the God-King of Norse mythology, Odin transformed [The Kingdom of Mist] to be hidden and ingenious, making it impossible to detect. It seems that he wants to invade and rule other civilizations that use the Kingdom of Mist, and become the returning figure from Norse mythology the power of."

[Body of Billions] was dressed in green, holding a silver staff in his hand, and smiled under the shadow of a wide-brimmed hat: "Thanks to your cooperation and timely uniforms, otherwise there would have been some trouble. But it's okay now, this [Tree Sir] has been immobilized, I have eliminated the mark left by Odin, and it will quickly return to its natural form."

“It’s a good thing that the roots of the World Tree can sprout again. It can provide us with a rare research target. It will imitate the gods and even exert similar special abilities, which is really amazing.”

　　He raised the brim of his hat to Nidhogg: "I didn't expect that your Excellency would also come to our world."

"Welcome."

Nidhogg knew that the other party saw his identity.

"Mr. Nevid." [Billionaire] was quite polite to the blood knight: "Then I'll leave first. I've been busy with things recently, and I haven't had time to do things in this world. Thank you for coordinating with Miss [Tyrant], These combat tools have been brought in.”

 The Blood Knight simply said: "The duty lies."

 …

 After the situation calmed down, the roots of the Tree of Life continued to grow slowly.

It grows all the way up to the sky from the inexhaustible spring. The bottom still looks like Odin sitting on the throne, but this Mr. Tree has returned to the chaotic state of life itself.

 Most of the time, it sat motionless, unable to speak. Sometimes it would get up from the throne and look around, but it would not and could not leave the roots of the tree. It was more like a strange consciousness born in the roots of the tree.

 After the initial fear and commotion, the people in the Eternal City gradually got used to Odin under the tree.

 Everyone often comes to watch and even say hello to it.

 “Mr. Shu, you’re having a great day today, please don’t eat any more children.”

“Mr. Shu, can you speak? Do you want me to teach you?”

“Mr. Tree, can you run? Or climb up the tree?”

 …

 The people in the Everlasting City are very tolerant.

Nidhogg discovered, however, that the appearance of Mr. Tree continued to change. Its throne gradually merged into the roots, and the posture of sitting on the throne also changed to that of standing and looking out.

 【Mr. Tree】finally became a warrior wearing armor and standing with a sword.

 It turned into the appearance of the Blood Knight.

Yao scholars say that this is its innate ability to imitate. After being eliminated from Odin's influence, it will subconsciously imitate the surrounding life.

Not far ahead, the Blood Knight who left a deep impression on it became the target of its imitation.

 Mr. Tree has become a tree knight.

 After returning to a peaceful life, the Blood Knight returned to his silence and continued to stand in front of the Eternal Fountain.

 He shouldered the oracle of Yao and defended the Kingdom of Mist.

 For hundreds of years, the Blood Knight remained motionless and carried out this order.

Nidhogg thought that Yao was a very discerning **** who could discover such an apostle.

The Nibelungs love and respect the Blood Knight very much. Every child who wants to leave here or grow up to become a giant will come to the Blood Knight and say goodbye to him.

 The Blood Knight, who had always been silent, would also speak at this time.

"Good luck."

If Nidhogg is the new hero of the Eternal City, then the Blood Knight is the ancient tradition of this city.

One day, the Blood Knight suddenly shone brightly, and his whole body was bathed in a vast and holy white light.

 It is divine power!

 At this time, Nidhogg was resting nearby and couldn't help but straighten his neck.

The Blood Knight now turned into a blurry shadow, unable to be seen directly or spied upon.

Nidhogg was surprised.

 This is the sign of the gods.

 The blood knight has obtained the qualifications of a **** and has been promoted to godhood!

 After a while, the blood knight's body's luster dissipated, and he returned to his working appearance standing with a sword.

He looked over and said, "According to the oracle, I have other missions. I leave them to you here."

Nidhogg nodded: "Okay."

 The Blood Knight turned into a white light and rushed into the sky.

Nidhogg felt a little melancholy in his heart, and suddenly sensed the arrival of a huge will.

 —Be my apostle.

 …

Many years later, Nidhogg has been transferred out of the Kingdom of Mist and became a Yao **** just like the Blood Knight back then.

While he was busy, he would occasionally watch here secretly.

Although he knows that he will never be able to return here, he can only miss the past.

The Eternal City built a stone statue of Nidhogg next to the Eternal Fountain.

Not far away, there is Mr. Tree who looks like a blood knight.

 People come and go, but the story of the knight and the serpent continues to circulate.

 They will always watch over the city.
