You and me under the world tree

These are things that come to the fore.

Bailey can see this even if he is simple-minded.

Etzel's departure and the establishment of the City of Ashes, all of these were clearly in his eyes.

On the bright side, these things all prove Etzel's position - this guy has obviously run to the side of the gods!

And what they are doing is still eating inside and outside!

"I don't know what Su Dong is thinking, and I don't dare to ask, but now, Jotunheim has indeed become a mess because of this guy."

That's all Bailey said, and his lament sounded pathetic.

To a certain extent, such simple emotions and words can even mobilize emotions.

But here comes the question, how many people present will be aroused by this exclamation?

Compared to Hodder himself, a human from Midgard, the other three are standard giants.

They should feel more deeply about the changes that have taken place in Jotunheim.

However, their performance is not the same.

After scanning around like this, Hodder discovered one thing, that is, the mentality of the three giants except Bailey may be similar to his.

This is an emotion that doesn't need to be covered up too much, but it's not easy to fully express it.

Because once it is fully revealed, it is likely to hurt the dignity and even reveal some secrets.

And this emotion is called 'embarrassment'.

This is obviously an emotion that only people in the know can have, because those who know the secret will always feel uncomfortable when they hear people who don't know anything complaining and publishing their "high opinions".

Even, Utgard has started to cover his face.

However, Hodder suspected that this guy actually wanted to laugh, but because of Gemil and Gilda's face, or because he wanted to keep it a secret, he didn't laugh outright.

But even so, Bailey's performance is embarrassing enough.

At least Hodder had the idea that he didn't want to hear him go on.

Not sympathizing with Etzel, just feeling embarrassed.

But fortunately, the embarrassment that made him almost want to hook his legs to the legs of the chair ended soon.

Just when Bailey wanted to continue to make some high-level remarks, Gemil coughed lightly.

"Cough cough."

And this cough came just right, which happened to interrupt Bailey's words.

It's just that this upright giant didn't seem to notice anything unusual.

"Dad what's wrong with you?"

Instead, he looked at his father with curious eyes, and this caused that kind of helpless eyes.

Speaking of which, both Gemil and Gilda are quick-witted people, and they look like father and daughter at first glance... No, in terms of appearance, they are actually more like a grandfather and granddaughter.

But in any case, Bailey, who is stuck in the middle and is the eldest son, highlights an embarrassment.

I don't know who Bailey, the eldest son, followed.

"Dad?"

"Okay bro, stop talking."

Some couldn't take it anymore, Gilda couldn't help but speak.

She really couldn't bear the slowness and embarrassment of her brother.

"No, what's wrong?"

Bailey seemed to be kept in the dark, he looked curious.

"It's nothing, it's a bit unlucky to talk about."

Gemil said in a non-essential way, this is considered to have exposed the matter.

"For dinner, don't talk about those who have left Jotunheim."

This reason actually sounds a bit blunt to Hodder, but it seems to be enough to deal with Bailey.

"Too."

He didn't seem to think there was anything, but felt that it was quite right.

And this seemed a bit weird in Hodder's eyes.

How should I put it, as an outsider, seeing that only Bailey was kept in the dark, he felt an inexplicable sympathy.

But he couldn't speak casually, so in the end he just dragged the topic back to the original place bluntly.

"Anyway, that's how it is. Etzel now has to recover from his injuries while dealing with his wife's affairs. During this critical period, he won't be willing to start any more wars."

Just saying that, Hodder just stared at Gemil.

"Thinking about it this way, Norway is the only one capable of launching a war. I'm right."

Then, Gemil's calloused hands just started clapping.

The applause echoed calmly.

"Should I say it's you?"

"It's nothing."

Facing the suspected praise-like words, Huo De was not happy at all.

"As I said, I still have my own control over the situation in Midgard. As for Norway..."

He thought for a moment, then suddenly laughed.

"If Norway doesn't do anything, I plan to find a reason to deal with that one after I return to Midgard."

No matter from what standpoint, Norway cannot continue to exist.

In fact, it has nothing to do with personal preferences, it is purely because Hodder and the others first came into contact with the North Wind Pirates back then, and also attracted Hewale.

Whether it is for the sake of stability or for the sake of Hewale's own face, Norway is bound to undergo a big change.

"However, you are not in Midgard right now, and I think Norway's big move must be related to this matter."

"I understand. After all, I was attacked in the Iron Forest no matter what. They even wanted to get rid of me directly."

"So, don't you think you came at the wrong time?"

"Why do you have such an idea?"

"Because if something happens to Midgard, it's all lost for you."

Then Hodder grinned.

"You mean, Norway is strong?"

In this way, the sage in the world narrowed his eyes.

"Do you think it will be better than the Netherlands?"

Not to mention anything else, about this, Hodder is simply too confident.

In a purely human struggle, the Netherlands is invincible.

Not to mention the already established legion and the Skywrath Guards who have been tempered and can be used as sharp-edged troops, the existence of Siegfried alone means that he is invincible on the frontal battlefield.

but……

"Do you think what I'm talking about is the struggle between human beings?"

Staring at the confident human, Gemil just narrowed his eyes.

"Why do you think we returned to Jotunheim in this way?"

"you……"

Speaking of which, how did they come back?

The iridescent brilliance visible to the naked eye easily appeared in Hodder's mind.

"I'm not going to hide it from you, it's this thing."

Gemil calmly took out a rune stone from his arms, and the magic Horde engraved on it felt very familiar.

"Rainbow Rune Stone..."

"Yes, a stone that was magically improved through the channel 'Rainbow Bridge'."

what does this mean?

"We came back through magic and didn't stay in Midgard at all. Why do you think this is?"

Chapter 75: Think Clearly

For a moment, Howard fell into silence.

He just stared at Gemil's face, the intention of observing was almost undisguised.

However, Gemil's expression did not change at all.

From the moment he asked that fatal question, he maintained an attitude of Gujing Wubo.

Should it be said that he is an 'old man'?

Although Huo De didn't know Gemil's exact age, but he shouldn't be too young, maybe even equal to the Giant King?

That is a character that existed before the world tree appeared and the world was created.

If he really lived through such a long time, the rich experience even reached the point where Hodd had to look up.

He has been through the world, he has witnessed everything.

Before that, he even used his excellent disguise to go to Midgard to inquire about the gods and humans for the giants.

The gods were unaware of his presence, and he just wandered about as a tavernkeeper and maybe even a traveler and merchant.

It seems to be completely impossible to find some flaws and information on his expression.

"Looks like you've figured out that answer."

Watching Hodder's expression gradually changing and getting closer to the gloom, Gemil said this.

Then Hodder just lowered his head.

A strange atmosphere began to spread, and Utgard frowned.

Because he also considered the worst possible outcome:

Gemil and Gilda quickly withdrew from Midgard, presumably the situation had reached the point where they could not afford to hesitate.

And if the gods really start to change their style and take advantage of the time when the sage who has been against them in the world goes to Jotunheim to directly attack Midgard, then the basic principle Hod has always created The disk might be broken in an instant.

However, this kind of thing seems to be helpless.

Because humans cannot fight against gods.

The frost giants in Jotunheim still have the power to fight against the Asa Protoss. Even if the giant king's high-end combat power does not fight, it still has a huge deterrent power.

This is also the reason why the gods have not been able to fully extend their hands into Jotunheim so far.

But humans are different.

Among the human groups in Midgard, there is already a belief in the gods, and it is not easy to change this rooted belief.

This is not something that can be achieved by relying solely on a king and a purely human alliance.

These could be uprooted if the gods had their hand, and quickly.

"Then what kind of state is Midgard in now?"

Thinking of this, Utgard couldn't help but asked.

"and many more!"

But without waiting for Gemil's answer, Hodder suddenly raised his voice.

Facing the eyes of the giants, Hodder suddenly laughed.
