You and me under the world tree

Then, he smiled.

"It is claimed that it is the randomness of the game, relying on pure luck... This kind of statement is naturally not biased, because it is judged according to people's own potential, and those who have 'blood' often have More powerful potential, maybe martial arts, maybe magic, in short, ordinary human bodies can't even bear their 'souls', if they don't use bloodlines to strengthen them, then I'm afraid there will be a situation like 'the body collapses first' Miserable, right?"

Finally, Hodder picked up his glass and took a sip of the mead.

"So, Dietrich, am I right?"

Chapter 45: Shards of Darkness

The reason why Hodder deliberately asked that question at the end was not to show off or to be sarcastic.

In fact, he was really asking.

After all, Dietrich was completely different from him.

For him, there are some things without any evidence that he can only infer from the fragmented information in his mind.

as it is now...

Not to mention whether he is confident in his own mind to the point of "what I say is the truth", which is almost arrogant. In fact, there is still a gap between the so-called inference and reality.

Not because of other reasons, because even Hodder himself has no way to ensure that he has learned all the news.

For some things, the lack of information will lead to a huge gap between the inferred results and the reality.

Even, this gap can be described as a world of difference.

Therefore, he also needs verification from others.

And here, there should be no better verifier than Dietrich.

Because unlike Hodder, who can be said to live in this world, Dietrich was a well-known figure in Midgard.

Perhaps she has even seen the rise and fall of a world where the gods have not intervened.

But these are just Hodder's guesses, but he can be sure of one thing: Dietrich knows many secrets in today's modern world.

After all, she even knew Su Na's true identity, and she could even stand up and approach her directly, so let alone other things.

Not to mention that she has a communication ally within World Tree Company.

"As for the situation of that game, or even the entire "Nine Realms", except for the people inside World Tree Company, no one should know the specific situation of that game better than you."

Regarding this matter, Hodder was extremely certain.

However, to his disappointment, Dietrich did not directly respond to his question.

"Let's not mention this for the time being, you can answer me a question first."

"Go ahead."

Although Hodder was a little disappointed by this, he did not reach the point of anger.

After all, there is indeed a problem in the conjectures he said before.

Although this problem seems to be nothing at first, and can even be ignored, once it is noticed, it cannot be ignored.

"You mentioned the issue of body and soul before, saying that an ordinary body cannot carry a soul."

"Yes, that's right."

"However, the modern human body is very fragile. You should have some experience with this."

Excluding acquired factors such as 'lack of exercise', modern human beings are indeed much inferior to the human beings shaped by the gods in terms of quality in all aspects.

The simplest example is that the warriors in Midgard can perform unconventional actions even without relying on any magic, and their strength is so great that they can perform actions that are close to legends that can only be found in records.

This is also the reason why individual heroism can flourish in the former Nine Realms.

"The human beings in the atrium were shaped by the gods to imitate themselves, and they were cultivated for the goal of 'warrior' from the very beginning. Strong physical fitness is inevitable."

For this, Howard naturally agrees.

Humans in the atrium world are indeed stronger than modern humans in terms of physical fitness.

"So, according to what you said before, if the physical fitness is not strong enough, how can you carry the powerful soul you said?"

"Are you 'testing' or are you really asking this?"

"..."

Dietrich didn't answer Hodder's words.

At this moment, she just watched him.

And Huo De did not continue the matter of the Nine Realms, he quickly said the answer he had prepared a long time ago:

"Because it's not just the body that supports the 'soul'. Didn't the memory images specifically mention this aspect before? Modern humans all have some kind of power that approximates potential. For example, Steckard's body burns flame, you said it yourself."

When hearing Hodder say that, Dietrich couldn't help showing a wry smile.

To be honest, she doesn't remember much of what she communicated with Huode at that time.

Because when watching the memory images, she has always been in an extremely tense but quite confused state of mind.

On the one hand, she has to pay attention to the news that she doesn't know shown in the memory screen, and on the other hand, she has to deal with Hodder's casual questions from time to time.

After all, for her now, there are some topics that she must stick to.

"Ah, I did say so."

"In fact, this kind of potential seems to have nothing to do with physical fitness. Even if physical fitness is extremely fragile, as long as there is this strength, it will not be difficult to support the soul."

In the end, probably because he was almost full, Hodder put down the knife and fork in his hand.

Then he poured himself another glass of mead.

On the other side, Dietrich just watched

"In short, my guess for modern humans is the following three points: the body, the soul, and the... flame that supports that soul, it should be considered."

When Hodder mentioned this, Dietrich just chewed the food in her mouth.

But at this moment, she didn't pay attention to the smell of mushrooms and bacon, instead she put all her attention on what Hodder said.

"As for the soul, there may be some powers that are not even noticed by the parties involved, including martial arts, magic, and even various other things, and the game system of "Nine Realms" uses a certain method to tap these something."

At the moment when Dietrich felt the subtle fear for a long time, Hodder finally turned the topic back to the game level.

"This is my guess and thought, I don't know how many of them are right."

"Mostly...correct."

Finally, after hesitating for a while, Dietrich nodded.

She agrees with this.

"Then the next thing is very interesting, why are these things buried in modern humans?"

Dietrich still didn't speak.

At times like this, she's used to pretending to be dead.

Anyway, as long as she doesn't tell, it doesn't count as what she told.

Although this thought was like a shrinking turtle, Dietrich felt that she had nowhere to go.

"I guessed before that the identity played by the player in the game is related to Hodur, the God of Darkness."

Speaking of which moment, Hodder just knocked on the table.

At first, he was actually quite interested, but unconsciously, the interest in his heart disappeared.

The rest is just the bad mood that I don't know where it came from.

"This is speculation from the perspective of the plot. At the time, I even considered the idea of ​​'reincarnation', but when I think about it carefully, it doesn't seem to be the case, because there seems to be no 'reincarnation' in the Norse legends. .”

Then, Hodder squeezed the handle of the cup in his hand.

"But we... Or, all human beings in this world are related to the God of Darkness?"

In the end, Hodder's eyes drooped down.

"For example... fragments or something."

Please take a leave of absence. Today I will accompany my grandfather to the hospital for a follow-up visit. I just got home

@@@@ Let me briefly talk about the current situation. To be honest, it is not optimistic. After all, the doctor has warned many times not to smoke, but my grandfather is a heavy smoker.

He can forget everything, but he will never forget smoking orz

It's a bit uncomfortable to make trouble if you don't smoke.

But the most uncomfortable thing is that it rained all day today, and I was already very tired when I came back, and I was not in the mood to code.

Chapter 46: Best news for him

When Hodder finished speaking, he took a sip of the mead.

At this time, perhaps only the slightly sweet and refreshing taste of iced mead can give him a little comfort.

In fact, according to the usual situation, when he tells others about his speculation, he always has a little emotion.

Maybe excited, maybe shocked.

After all, for him, it is a very refreshing thing to use his own guesses to reveal some secrets and concealed truth step by step.

At the same time, he was shocked by the truth, if it shocked him.

However, the current situation is very complicated.

While narrating these, he just felt a little tired.

This is the result of his deliberate suppression.

The emotions that linger in my mind are complex, including anger, sadness, and other unspeakable emotions.

All of these mixed together finally created the icy coldness on Hodder's face.

Then, he continued to drink the mead until all the wine in the glass was drunk.

"call……"

Hodder took a breath, and then placed the empty glass on the dining table.

"So, this is all my guesses and ideas about modern humans. I don't think there should be anything wrong."

Although there may have been some emotional ups and downs during the process, when Hodder confessed everything, he returned to that flawless calm appearance.

He even seemed to have regained his appetite.

He first sipped the mead, then picked up the knife and fork, and cut the gradually warming sausage and fried egg in an irregular posture.

In the end, it's a layer of meat, eggs, and mushrooms, then smothered in tomato sauce.

While Hodder was chewing the food, Dietrich didn't speak.

For a while, there was even the sound of chewing food.

Dietrich didn't raise her head until Hodder put down the knife and fork again.

"Since you don't think there is anything wrong, why do you need to ask me?"

As always, she didn't admit it head-on.

But in fact, for Hodder, whether Dietrich admits it or not, her tactful attitude has already explained a lot of problems.

"So, sure enough." Facing Dietrich's slightly unnatural expression, Hodder said, "This world is also related to the Nordic gods... No, theoretically, it should also be created by the gods The world is right, so there are no other... or completely different gods."

"Ah."

"So sure enough..."

Huo De's words paused for a while, and at the same time, his voice couldn't help but made Dietrich clenched her hand hidden under the table.

For her, this kind of slightly tense atmosphere really hasn't been seen for a long time.
