The world-devouring dragon

"Woo..."

Under the cover of night, everything is silent, except for the gentle waves rolling up from time to time on the calm sea, reflecting a little bit of light under the soft moonlight.

But above this empty and quiet sea, there is a misty and ethereal sound of playing, the sound is sad and moving, making people addicted.

The girl stood on the bow of the dragon's head, wearing thin clothes, standing against the wind, holding a ram's horn in her hand, and pressing the finger holes on the horn with her slender fingers to play quietly.

The low voice with a bit of sadness made people seem to be able to hear the sigh and helplessness in the girl's heart.

On the surrounding seven dragon-headed warships, there were also warriors who had not yet fallen asleep, listening quietly.

During the more than ten days that the Dragon Head Warship was out at sea, only the singing and music at night could bring some comfort to these soldiers.

After the music gradually became lower and quieter, a rich voice came from behind her.

"Lina."

Turning around, Lina lowered her head towards the muscular man in front of her and bowed slightly.

"Atler, my brother, what's the matter?"

This time she went out to sea for revenge, all nine of Lina's brothers came to help her, and because of Lina's special characteristics, only Lina and her nine brothers were on board this dragon-headed warship to avoid suspicion.

In Viking culture, women were revered for their wisdom passed down from generation to generation and their mastery of magic and prophecy. There was no distinction between men and women.

However, the Vikings also pay attention to family. In the family, father and mother have the highest status, followed by their brother and sister. In front of her brother, Lina did show her due respect.

Looking at his sister, Atler sighed.

"Lina, actually you don't have to come. War is a matter between men and should have nothing to do with you. Kyle's hatred is also our family's hatred, a family blood feud. Our nine brothers will naturally help you go there. Why should you..."

"My brother."

However, Lina interrupted him directly and looked directly at her brother.

"Women from North are not known for being weak."

She spoke word by word, with a hint of heroism between her brows, making it impossible for anyone to tell that she was just a simple little girl half a year ago.

Indeed, in Norse culture, even women have the power to fight. In ordinary Norse families, there are few women like Lena who are not familiar with weapons.

Perhaps Lina used to not like weapons and fighting, and the old Edgar who doted on her could accept that she only liked music and not fighting, but now, with her heart filled with angry flames, she is obviously no longer like this Think about it.

Looking at his familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar sister in a complicated manner, Atler could only say.

"Then you go to bed early."

Atler was still performing his duty of keeping vigil, while Lina turned around and stared at the deep darkness in front of her and the silvery light of the sea under the moonlight.

The watery moonlight shone on her body, as if covering her with a layer of gauze, making her more attractive.

Raising her head, Lina's bright eyes stared at the bright moon above her head.

In his hand, he held tightly the simple necklace carved from stone around his neck, and opened his mouth silently, as if he was saying something.

The moon is like water and the sea is silent.

…

The next day, noon.

The sun goddess driving the chariot passed through the sky above everyone's heads, spreading light and heat to the world.

Life at sea is always boring in every possible way. Under the boredom, the North warriors can only find ways to relieve their boredom.

But just then, an excited voice came.

"Look!"

In the eyes of everyone, in front of them, traces of a small island gradually appeared.

The island is not big, only tens of meters in diameter. There is only a little green on the dark rocks, and there are no trees in sight.

"An island?"

Atler looked at the small island with a bit of joy on his face.

For these people who have not set foot on land for a long time, a small island on the sea where they can rest and stretch their muscles and hands and feet is enough to make them happy.

"Haha, Atler, it seems we are really lucky. Otherwise, let's stop here and take a rest."

Beside Atler, his younger brother, Harriet, smiled happily.

Atler thought for a moment and then nodded.

"Okay, let everyone take a break first."

The rest went quickly. The first approaching Viking dragon-headed warship rushed directly to the island. Then, more than 40 warriors on the ship boarded the small mountain-like island directly, cheering and cheering. Some even He danced directly on the island.

Also, for these strong Northmen, staying on the Dragon Head Warship, which is twenty to thirty meters long and has a narrow hull, is like putting a tall and powerful warrior into a small box, which makes people feel It was so suffocating that I couldn't even stretch my arms and legs. If I stretched out my hand even slightly, I could hit someone directly in the face.

At this moment, they were naturally very excited as they set foot on land again.

The cheers were so loud that even Atler, a hundred meters away, could faintly hear them.

He couldn't help but shook his head and smiled at his brothers.

"Look at them, they look like birds out of their cages."

On the island, a North warrior felt a little stuffy, so he took off his armor and sat naked on the island, feeling the coolness of the sea breeze.

"It feels so damn good."

While sighing, he casually thrust the ax in his hand into the ground.

"Clang!"

Sparks were seen flying, but the sharp ax failed to penetrate into the black rock at all. Instead, it bounced to the side.

He looked at the rock in front of him with some surprise, but someone beside him had already laughed at him.

"Hanna, I'm afraid you haven't eaten anything today?"

What followed was a group of wanton laughter.

"Come, look at me."

As he spoke, a strong man with a strong physique walked out of the crowd, raised the ax in his hand, roared, and slashed at the rock in front of him.

"collapse!"

Immediately, a huge force came back. Unprepared, the strong man fell directly to the ground, and the black rock had only slight scratches.

"I'll try too."

"Look at me!"

"Humph, only I can do that."

"..."

Immediately, the surprised North soldiers suddenly became interested and started a competition between you and me to show off who could leave traces on this rock.

But at this moment, they were completely unaware that the ground beneath their feet began to shake.

"what happened?"

Then, when someone felt their feet shaking, they couldn't help but be surprised.

However, they had no chance to be confused.

"Crash!!!"

Suddenly, a deafening loud noise was heard, countless huge waves were set off, and the ground beneath his feet suddenly cracked. .

Without even any precautions, the North soldiers fell into the huge whirlpool stirred up by the sea one after another, and the original "island" also expanded its body...

The sea was shaking. On the other dragon-headed warships not far away, the dumbfounded people watched helplessly as the island turned into a terrifying head that was so huge that it raised its head, revealing the majestic body like a mountain under the sea.

That "island" is not an island at all, but the head of that huge creature when it emerges from the sea!

That huge body that seemed boundless and endless as far as the eye could see was like a dark mountain range appearing in the sea.

"Boom!!!!"

Above the sky, the originally clear sky was suddenly covered with electric snakes and dark clouds.

Along with its random movements, in an instant, a hurricane rolled up and the sea roared, as if the end of the world was coming.

With its huge body, any insignificant movement is enough to form a huge whirlpool in the sea that can engulf ships. Every move is as terrifying as a natural disaster.

And those indifferent pupils were filled with cold beastliness that devoured all things.

At this moment, this giant beast raised its head and silently looked down at the mortal man beneath him who was like an ant, struggling in the huge whirlpool stirred up by the sea...

The giant serpent, Jormungandr, the snake that wraps around the world, has awakened.
