Chapter 17 Norse Mythology Two in One 4000
Chapter 17 Nordic Mythology (2 in 1 4000)
"Except for the supreme Black Emperor and the White Emperor, the four great monarchs of the Dragon Clan are all twins, one holds power and the other holds power.
My brother Norton and I took over the authority of the fire element together and created the pinnacle of alchemy as the Lord of Bronze and Fire.
The same names as us are the King of Ocean and Water, who controls the element of water, the King of Sky and Wind, who controls the element of wind, and the King of Earth and Mountain, who controls the element of earth."
Through Samson's body, Constantine slowly told Lu Mingfei the ancient events of the past, which were the truth buried in the smoke of history and a long-lasting prophecy unknown to people.
The Dragon Clan, which once ruled an era, carries a history that far exceeds that of humans. The civilization they developed naturally has many unspeakable secrets.
"Since I was besieged by human hybrids, I have been sleeping for more than 2,000 years. What I remember is that there are only a few forces on this planet.
It is said that the protoss that once overthrew the rule of the dragons were finally liquidated by their main god Odin. I have never seen it with my own eyes. I only heard a rumor after I woke up that there was only one Odin active in the Asa protoss.
.
This biggest trespasser has completed all the rituals and made the final leap. He is a being comparable to an emperor, our most important ally in that tragic battle, and the main messenger of backstabbing!
"
The Asa Clan, born out of the pet management organization of the past, was the highest organization for managing those who were given dragon blood. Its first owner was the White Emperor.
The White Emperor made all the dragons see clearly the fighting power of those who were given dragon blood, so many dragons followed suit. This was also an important step for humans to be born out of other creatures.
Precisely because of their adaptability to dragon blood, many dragon clans prefer this race and make them into their own generals and soldiers.
"By the way, I wonder if you know Norse mythology?"
Constantine said something suddenly. Lu Mingfei didn't understand what he meant, but he still thought about it hard and shook his head. It was too long a memory, and he didn't pay attention to these myths at that time.
"Then let me briefly introduce this myth. After all, this is the most systematic evaluation of the dragon clan summarized by humans. Some of the statements in it are far more concise and clear than what I said.
The human race still has some advantages. Although they do not have natural strength, their wisdom cannot be underestimated. This is probably why the White Emperor chose this race back then."
Constantine couldn't help but recall that era, when the Black Emperor and the White Emperor led the dragon clan to prosper. They had long since passed the Mengmei period and stepped out of their own civilization.
However, since humans were given dragon blood, countless conflicts have intertwined among the entire race. Some people chose to fight with the White Emperor against the Black Emperor, which led to the first great change in the Dragon Clan.
They thought that after the failure of the White Emperor, the Dragon Clan could return to that carefree time, but the wise Black Emperor banned the development of all civilization. He believed that it was the development of civilization that led to the White Emperor's resistance.
Civilization is degenerating, and their long life cannot allow them to maintain their technology. The Nibelungs that were created for their own convenience have become shackles to imprison themselves. The establishment of the Presbyterian Church has made the contradictions worse and worse, and there is no possibility of easing them.
The war spread across the planet. As the four kings second only to the emperor, whether it was out of their own race, the prospect of civilization, or the desire for power, the eight of them worked together to cultivate that god.
That god was originally the most intelligent among the transgressors. He absorbed the dragon technology they gave him, made the ultimate leap, and became the third supreme, becoming their sharpest weapon against the Black Emperor.
His thoughts returned to the past, and Constantine said leisurely.
"The so-called Nordic mythology, the nine major forces mentioned in it, all have contrasting prototypes. Speaking from myself, the race of the Lord of Bronze and Fire is called dwarfs in this myth, because we are good at forging
and alchemy.
Flame is the most essential expression of our race. From the beginning of ancient times, some humans witnessed our race and described it in imaginary colors as a blacksmith who forged magical weapons and was the god of all metals in the world."
Lu Mingfei nodded and used myths to describe ancient history. It was a very common method. Those extremely exaggerated deeds were passed down orally from generation to generation and eventually evolved into myths filled with people's imagination.
He has also been deified in later generations, and people respect him as the God of Travel, the God of Guardian, the God of Justice, the God of History, etc. This is people's awe for things that are beyond their understanding.
"The King of the Earth and Mountains, who holds the power of the earth element, is the best at disguising himself. He clearly controls the earth element, but is always used to using other elements to disguise himself.
Titles such as Fire Giant, Frost Giant, Mountain Giant, etc. all describe this branch. These guys themselves are not good at these powers, but they always use these powers to mislead the world.
It is precisely because of this desire for expression that many of the nine major forces in Nordic mythology point to this dragon branch. In fact, they are all the same dragon branch."
Constantine seemed to have thought of something, and his teeth itched with hatred, as if the king of earth and mountains had deceived him.
"At the same time, they are also the masters of the underworld. This master simply refers to the King of the Earth and Mountains. They are the most beloved children of the Black Emperor, who gave all the authority of the Nibelungs to her.
She has the ability to open the Nibelung roots at any time. According to your current understanding, it is the territory of all dragons, and she can enter and exit at will.
But it’s obvious that I invented the Nibelungen, so I’m really a hateful guy.”
This is why he can't stand the King of Earth and Mountain. As the biggest 'scientist' of the Dragon Clan, he obviously invented the Nibelung, but it is the King of Earth and Mountain who controls these territories.
At the beginning, their two forces just looked down on each other. Of course, he also looked down on the other two branches of the dragon clan. It was obvious that they created alchemy and promoted civilization, but it was the other guys who enjoyed the blessings.
"The King of Ocean and Water, who holds the authority of the water element, is an extremely arrogant and greedy guy. They correspond to the elves in Norse mythology.
In our time, this branch liked to compete for territory the most, and it was also the one that gave the most dragon blood to humans, because they needed humans to fight for them.
But how could they, being greedy, let humans pass on the dragon's blood, and end up eating it themselves? It's really pretentious."
When it comes to the King of Oceans and Water, Constantine has a look of disdain on his face, and I don't know how he shows it. With such a big dragon head, his look of contempt is so expressive.
This guy wanted to use his alchemy skills for nothing back then, and he still looked arrogant, as if giving alchemy to him was the greatest honor for him, and then he was beaten up by his irritable brother before he became honest.
He didn't stay honest for long. He would come to harass them every once in a while, and his irritable old brother would block the door of their house. Then there was a war, and everything ended in nothing.
"The King of Sky and Wind, who controls the power of the wind element, is the most mysterious guy among us, corresponding to the mysterious Vanir clan in Norse mythology.
This is the most mysterious existence among us. He is separated from all history and legends. Even we rarely see him. I didn't expect that there is a record of him in Nordic mythology.
He was the instigator of the rebellion against the Black Emperor back then. Odin was the strongest among the transgressors at that time, and it was he who trained the strongest blade that stabbed the Black Emperor."
When it comes to the King of Sky and Wind, Constantine no longer has a hostile mood, but a kind of fear and sympathy.
Of the four major branches of the Dragon Clan, the King of Earth and Mountain and the King of Ocean and Water are the noisiest, the King of Bronze and Fire is the pioneer of alchemy, and the King of Sky and Wind is the pioneer of Word Spirit.
They were the only ones who could be recognized by Constantine. The development of the dragon clan's civilization relied on these two branches. If the White Emperor was still around, her lineage would definitely be the biggest driver of the development of civilization.
"The largest remaining one among the nine major forces, the Atrium, is the residence of humans in mythology and a place where people can live peacefully, but in fact it corresponds to the most cruel institution of the Dragon Clan, the Council of Elders.
As the Presbyterian Council that fulfills the will of the Black Emperor, it is an institution governed by all the first-generation species. These first-generation species do not include the four monarchs. The biggest function of this organization is to target our four monarchs.
Ever since the White Emperor's rebellion, we have been the biggest thorn in the Black Emperor's heart. He no longer believes in us and even gives the rights to other dragon clans to compete with us."
It was a repressed era, and although there were conflicts between each other, war did not break out. However, with the establishment of the Presbyterian Council, all the first-generation species were incorporated into it, and the conflicts between the princes and the monarchs began to pile up.
Layer after layer of doubts spread over the heads of the dragon clan, until finally dark clouds came over, thunder and lightning roared, unprecedented changes occurred, and the aloof black emperor finally fell on his throne.
"During the existence of the Presbyterian Council, all dragons were prohibited from bestowing human blood. The dragons could no longer create their beloved generals as they pleased, and turned to select generals from the wild hybrids to continue their war.
At the same time, alchemy and the study of speech spirits were banned. These hateful guys actually sent a dragon to our Nibelung roots to monitor us. He was originally from our ethnic group."
Constantine was very angry. What the Presbyterian Church did was completely reversing the course. He could understand the ban on giving human blood, but he could not understand the ban on the development of civilization.
Alchemy is such a convenient technology. It is enough to stop the research and development of word spirits. Why should we stop the research and development of alchemy? If you have the ability, don't use Nibelung roots.
"These are all the forces of the dragon clan in the mythical records. They are the four great monarchs, the black emperor and the transgressor. I don't know if there are any dragons organized now. Anyway, you have also seen the lineage of the king of bronze and fire."
He made a helpless expression. 2000 years ago, he didn't even look for a member of his race, and he didn't do anything. Then he was found by human hybrids, and they fought against them inexplicably, forcing them to reincarnate.
They just supported a puppet regime, they just wanted to enjoy the life of two brothers, and they had no intention of fighting for world domination. That battle left them extremely frustrated.
"I don't know if there will be any new forces among human hybrids in the past 2000 years. They only last a hundred years and change so fast that it is useless for me to remember them.
I saw several mixed-race forces in my last reincarnation, and they were all about the same strength, but that's it. If they hadn't caught us off guard with their surprise attack, we wouldn't have reincarnated."
He was worried about the last time he was forced to reincarnate. If they were allowed to prepare their dragon bodies, the humans would not be able to stop them.
Unfortunately, if there was no such thing, all these humans stole into his home, and he was forced to fight them, and then he had to be reincarnated.
"What about the great liquidation? You have clearly explained to me the power of the Dragon Clan. What about the great liquidation? In a few years, the world will encounter some irresistible natural disaster? Do you still want to massacre ordinary people?"
Lu Mingfei went straight to the core of the problem. Although he was very interested in the history of the Dragon Clan and wanted to continue to hear about the development history of the Dragon Clan, he had to first understand the so-called Great Liquidation.
There is no existence that can despise life. The so-called hatred should stop at the previous generation. Hatred should not be continued. There is no existence that can vent anger on others.
This is a strange world, and there are no familiar Liyue soldiers, nor the Teyvat humans he is familiar with. Even though they are occasionally greedy and selfish, they also have a good side.
At the beginning of man's nature, he is inherently good. As long as there is a little simplicity and kindness, he will fight for it.
Fortunately, he seems to be mostly kind-hearted in this world. These are innocent people and they should not be implicated.
"The great reckoning."
After saying this word, Constantine looked at Lu Mingfei strangely, as if he was the cause of the so-called liquidation.
"I'll tell you what I can tell you."
He spoke quietly and revealed the great prophecy from countless centuries ago, which was also the last roar of the Black Emperor before his death, and the greatest curse for their four monarchs.
"'I will banish you from the throne forever. There will be no shadow of you in the land of ice and snow. You will be betrayed and fall into endless reincarnation.
My blood is a curse, and anyone who touches it will die after many hardships; my flesh is anger, and anyone who touches it will betray their relatives and die alone; my bones are resentment, and anyone who rebels will recognize it and stay alive to receive it!
I will rise again in countless centuries to deal with all your betrayals one by one, and sweep away all the rebellious tribes in the world!'
He roared like this, so those of us who survived were forced to scatter our race with us, never to return to our ancestral land."
A new book for newcomers, recommended by everyone, start collecting it.
