Shadow trail of the beautiful world

Chapter 788 45. The Tavern Talk

In the sea water under the Norwegian Strait, Loki, the god of mischief who came here to explore the secrets, is talking with Hela, the god of death trapped in the great seal under the sea, through a fish carrying his will.

Hela told Loki a startling truth.

And now...

She will also tell Loki a second horrible truth.

"No, you are not!"

Hela's voice fell into Loki's mind, making the second prince a little confused for a while.

He asked back:

"What am I not?"

"You are not Odin's child."

The big sister Hela was probably in a bad mood. She was not polite when she spoke. She said directly:

"There is no family imprint in your soul, you are not my younger brother, and... I also smell a disgusting smell from your soul."

"This is impossible!"

Loki retorted:

"How could I not be Odin's child?"

"The whole of Asgard, no, the whole of the Nine Realms, except for the ghostly place of Midgard, everyone knows my name."

"Loki Odinson, I was born in the Golden Palace, 2 years after Thor. I grew up in the Golden Palace. I call Empress Frigga as my mother. Everyone knows this!"

"Oh? You mean, if everyone knows it, it must be the truth?"

Hela sneered:

"Stupid guy, I am an example of reality before you. No one knows me, but can you deny my existence? Can you say that my existence is a lie?"

"How sad!"

"you are lying!"

Rocky's emotions were rarely out of control, he said:

"You are just my father's defeated opponent. You are just using some clumsy language to provoke the relationship between me and my father. You cannot be his daughter."

"My father, a man like God King Odin, how could he seal his own daughter here?"

"Because Odin in your eyes is a loving father and a strict monarch."

It seems that Hela no longer intends to continue chatting with Loki. The news that Loki brought today made this big sister very sad, and it also deepened her hatred for her father.

She said in a cold tone:

"But do you actually know what kind of person Odin is?"

"No, poor boy, you don't know."

"You don't know that Odin killed his brother with his own hands;"

"You don't know that Odin once tore the World Tree apart because of his own anger, and exiled the whole world to the outside of the stars;"

"You also don't know that Odin set off a war out of anger and conquered the Nine Realms in a cruel way;"

"There's so much you don't know, poor man."

"Odin's interior is a hundred times more complex than you imagined, ten thousand times, what you see is only what he wants you to see, even including your mother... Hehe, the 'merciful' Queen Frigga ...It's all the way!"

"You are not allowed to insult my mother! You evil god!"

Hearing that Hela satirized the queen Frigga, Loki was furious, and he shouted:

"You are just a reptile entrenched in the dark, you can survive after failure; you are just a remnant of the past, you can only use words to slander the winner; you are a poisonous snake, trying to poison me with venom... But you will not succeed! "

"is it?"

Hela chuckled playfully, and she said:

"Loki, Loki, you said that you found news about me from the collapsed ruins of Hades, which means that you have been to Hades and stayed there for a long time."

"Then let me ask you, have you ever seen some angels with broken wings, entrenched in the north wing of Hades like beasts, rude, savage and desperately crazy?"

"I have seen it."

Rocky says:

"But so what?"

"Hehe, let me tell you a secret that few people know."

Hela's tone became softer, like a veil echoing in the darkness, she said:

"Those poor people are cursed. They were also creatures in the world extended by the World Tree."

"But they were cursed by a powerful wizard. After death, they could only fall into Hades and never rest... Guess who used the most vicious curse to destroy the future of an entire race?"

"Hahahaha, I won't tell you the answer, poor Loki."

Hella's voice became low and low:

"Go ask your gentle and kind mother, and then ask your just and strict father, and see what kind of cruel things this loving couple has done in the past..."

"You say I'm a viper? No, Loki. Your parents are, oh no, adoptive parents..."

"You were raised by two poisonous snakes. What's even more ridiculous is that you ignored the snake's kiss dripping with venom and regarded them as your real relatives."

"Anyway, it's your own blessing, little Rocky, don't end up in the same fate as me."

"Swish"

Loki's consciousness was thrown out of the cage by Hela, and the god of death was no longer interested in talking.

And when Loki's consciousness returned to the main body from the fish, Hela's last warning was still echoing in his ears.

"Don't tell anyone else that you came to see me, if you don't want to be executed by Odin..."

"Besides, for your poor sake, I will tell you some more things."

"In Hades, I didn't leave any map that recorded my seal. Odin would not allow such things to be left behind, so, poor boy, you were led here, and you were involved in a conspiracy ..."

"You are being used!"

At this time, because of Hela's crazy revelation, Loki, who was in a sluggish state, immediately woke up.

He tried his best to suppress the frightening news in his head, and then took out the map that led him here from his pocket.

Under Loki's gaze, the map seemed to have completed its mission and dissipated in the burning flames, leaving a white card in the ashes.

A funny red devil's head is drawn on the front of the card, and on the reverse, is an address.

There is another meaningful message.

"You're in a bad mood, aren't you? Come talk to me... Hell Bar is waiting for you~"

The text is beautiful, with patterns of dancing flames, like a work of art.

But there is an obvious sulfur smell on it, so it is obvious that this is not an invitation from a lonely lady. There is a high probability that it was written by a devil or devil with a dark heart.

Loki's heart was in turmoil.

From his birth to the present, he has never been so distraught as he is now.

A voice in his heart kept telling him that Hela was just lying to him.

But at the same time, in Loki's heart, there was still an urge to return to Asgard immediately and ask his mother if what the lunatic Hela said was true?

But he still has reason, Hela's last reminder is correct, no matter what she said is true or not, this matter cannot be known.

There must be a reason why Hela was sealed here by Odin.

Loki didn't want to cause trouble for himself, he has always been a person who is used to playing safe.

But this invitation...

Loki looked at the card in his hand, no matter who planned it, it had already sent Loki to the place where Asgard's biggest secret was, which showed that it knew Asgard very well.

What's more, a conspiracy has spread to Loki.

If he can't get into it and understand what the conspirators are trying to do, it will be very difficult for him to protect himself from the series of conflicts that may ensue.

Knowing that a threat has appeared, it is the most foolish not to face it, but to turn around and run away.

After thinking about it, Loki decided to meet this mysterious guy. If possible, he could confirm the authenticity of the information Hella said from him.

If all this is true...

That Loki's world is really about to collapse completely today.

Ten minutes later, Loki followed the unimpeded border of hell, all the way deep into the core of several hell dimensions.

In this burning world, he could see the Twilight Tower standing in the center of Hell from a distance, which was the seat of the Satanic Throne, which is very famous in countless dimensions.

This was the first time he came to this place, and at the end of the flame path in front of him, a strange-looking tavern stood there.

There are neon lights adorned with devils and devil skulls on the signboards, and some drunken and troubled guys are thrown out of the door by the big-bodied bartenders.

Seriously, it reminded Loki of those late-night hangouts in Asgard.

It's just as lively, and the air in his hometown is better. At least when Rocky drinks in his hometown, he won't have the bad smell of sulfur.

"crunch"

Loki pushed open the door of the tavern, dotted with various symbols of the Demon Lord.

He is inconspicuous here. Although it is a tavern in hell, it is not just hell creatures who come here to drink. Life in many dimensions drinks here. Loki even saw an octopus monster...

Illithids.

God, these demons are really big-hearted, dare to sit with such a creature.

Loki walked among the noisy crowd, he followed the guidance of the card in his hand, and quickly came to the depths of the tavern, in front of a box shining with a dark red halo, Loki took a deep breath, and then Pushed open the door.

"Yo, brother Rocky, come quickly."

The big devil Mephisto is sitting in this elegantly decorated box, and it is sitting at the wine table drinking by itself.

There are also several plates on the table, filled with snacks such as pretzels, of course, there are authentic "hell flavors", such as a plate with sliced ​​​​souls, such as sliced ​​​​white meat Same.

This big devil is quite enjoyable, and the combination of meat and vegetables is quite reasonable.

Loki is not an ignorant person. When he saw that the inviter was Mephisto, he immediately cheered up, but...

Here you go, let's have a chat.

"Why did you leave a map in the ruins of Hades and lead me to Hela?"

Loki was sitting at the wine table. He knew that he was still too immature in terms of conspiracy, so he didn't plan to play tricks with an "old man" like Mephisto, but asked the question directly.

This calm attitude surprised Mephisto a little.

The big devil stroked his beard, it looked at Loki, as if examining him, and after a while, it said:

"You are different from the rumors, prankster, little Rocky, you are smarter than their rumors..."

"But your mind is very confused, I guess, that crazy woman Hella told you everything you should know and what you shouldn't know, right?"

"She talked a lot."

Loki twisted a pretzel, put it to his mouth, and said:

"But I'm not sure..."

"It's all true!"

The big devil looked at Loki, and it showed a malicious smile:

"Hella seldom lies. She had this temper when she was young. Ah, I was fascinated by her for a while back then. Of course, the proud queen doesn't like me as an old man..."

"You, Loki, you are not Odin's son. In fact, your life experience is more bizarre than you imagined. It is a terrible truth. It will weigh your immature shoulders, but it is a good thing..."

"Only when the image of a good son collapses, can a true evil god stand up in the shattered ruins."

"Only when the childish boy in your heart dies, will the fierce man appear."

The big devil drank a glass of devil wine, and it said freely:

"You're a good kid, you should be a conspirator, not a mischievous god who can be bullied by anyone. I know you're wondering why I'm telling you this..."

"Hehe, just take it as me being a supporter."

"The young people nowadays are really too difficult to deal with. They are ambitious, and they don't play cards according to common sense. They play hard, but they are lucky. It really makes people very angry."

As he spoke, a raging flame ignited behind the big devil, as if to show its bad mood at this time.

"I do not believe."

Rocky bit off a pretzel and said:

"You must have other purposes."

"Well... I'm really old."

With a long sigh, Mephisto put down his glass and said:

"It's frustrating now that anyone can read my mind and go, okay, okay, I have other plans, other ideas."

The big devil approached Loki, it deliberately lowered its voice and said:

"Actually, I want to mess up everything in Asgard through you."

"I want to see the glorious golden palace collapse in flames, I want to see the rainbow bridge crumble among the stars, I want to see the whole of Asgard die, I want to see the mighty Odin swallow his last breath in despair Tone..."

"Do you know why I did this?"

The big devil's red eyes stared at young Loki, who avoided his crazy eyes, and said while eating a burrito:

"Because you wanted to?"

"Tch, a brat who pretends to be a fool on purpose, it's boring."

The archdevil spewed two sparks from his nostrils, stood up, raised his glass, and said like a hysteria:

"This world is too quiet, Loki, it's too quiet to be a normal world."

"It should have more destruction, more catastrophe, more anxiety, more fear, but it doesn't, the world is incomplete, well, you can't feel it, but I feel it. ..”

Mephisto spread his hands, looked back at Loki, and said:

"As a devil, shouldn't I fill in the last vacancy in this world?"

"I want to see the world fall into flames, I want to see heaven fall into the sky, I want to see hell in chaos, I want to see disaster come...I want to see it."

"Well, of course, the most important reason is..."

Mephisto blinked, and said maliciously:

"In order to protect Thor, the queen Frigga kept meddling in the grievances between me and the younger generation, and almost made me lose everything. She said that if I have any dissatisfaction, I can go to her..."

"Well, I'm very dissatisfied! It's really annoying to casually destroy people's games like this."

"But how can I, a big man, have the same sense as a weak woman trying to protect her son?"

The big devil Mephisto turned his head and made a gesture to the logic looking at it:

"So, I'm going to make some trouble for her husband..."

"Rocky Lawson, do you want to come with me?"
