You and me under the world tree

However, these weapons either broke directly or were bounced off. Although the young warrior showed pain on his face, he didn't retreat in any way.

"Does it hurt?"

"I can still bear it."

"Then try this next."

Then, the elemental bombardment began, and the most basic rune magic bombarded his skin.

This also made him feel pain, but it still didn't break his skin.

"Excellent defense."

You know, Huo De is the one who fills up the rune magic, coupled with the buff brought by the protoss blood, even the most basic elemental magic is not something ordinary wild monsters or players can bear.

What's more, Siegfried doesn't have any protective gear on his body yet, but he still doesn't have any wounds on his body, and the blood bars on his head haven't been reduced in any way.

However, Huo De's test is not to see his own defense. His biggest purpose is to test the limit of his skin's strength and answer the doubts in his heart.

This kind of thing can't even be written in the strategy, he just does the most basic test.

So in the end, he ramped up the intensity.

The weapon was replaced with an enchanted blade, the magic was further upgraded to a combined magic, and even spells such as mental shock were used.

However, none of them have any effect.

But at this moment, a guess inexplicably appeared in Hodder's mind.

This is actually just a castle in the air, but as the thoughts diverge, the base of this castle in the air gradually thickens.

Because it is not without reason, the so-called inspiration must be based on the accumulation in the mind, but few people realize this.

"Wait, I have an idea, all the things I use now are..."

He glanced at his list of spell combinations, which had sources besides the introduction.

Without exception, they all come from Midgard and Jotunheim, and the enchantments generally come from Walter Alheim or Yalfheim.

To be honest, it is true that runes are creations given to humans by the gods, but the magic of the mortal world is not at the same level as the magic of the gods.

In the enchantment column, Huo De found an enchantment effect that he had just learned recently.

But before the test, he set his sights on the sword on Siegfried's back.

"Try your sword. Its main material is the divine iron from Asgard. It's lighter this time."

Then, according to Hodder's words, Siegfried pulled out the sword of God's Wrath on his back, and then he gently wiped the sharp edge of the sword with his palm.

'tick'

The blood fell on the ground, and the blade just broke open.

As if everything before was an illusion, Siegfried just stared blankly at his cut palm.

He clenched his fist and opened it again, letting his own blood coat his palm as he squeezed the wound.

But he has long been used to this kind of pain, and this kind of cut that only exists on the surface can't make him frown.

But unavoidably, he was still a little lost in his heart, after all, he would still get hurt, and getting hurt meant weakness.

"I knew that this kind of thing might be effective on mortals or giants." Just when Siegfried was in a daze, Hodder couldn't help squinting his eyes.

"If the gods can't be hurt, they would have already figured out a way."

what?

Weakness of the vest?

How many gods could outshine Siegfried in sheer martial arts and come around him?

"Let's do one more final test."

Accompanied by the sound of 'crash', Huo De activated the rune of God's Wrath engraved on his epee.

"Let's see if my sword can do you any harm at this time."

Chapter 67: The Dwarves Awaken

Finally, the test is over.

Hodder experimented with several attack modes with Siegfried, and finally confirmed his guess:

After being tempered by dragon blood, his skin is indeed comparable to those excellent armors.

Although the pain was still there, the weapons produced by Midgard would definitely not be able to cause him any harm.

As for the 'sage epee' in Hodder's hand, which was obviously derived from the craftsmanship of the dwarves, there is no way to break his skin without using the power of the enchanted runes.

As for the part of the magic from the giants, it caused slight damage, but it was not significant.

As Hodder guessed, the things that can really hurt Siegfried are more or less related to the gods.

The Holy Sword of God's Wrath, Gulam, used the purest Asa Iron's sharp blade to cut through the skin of his palm.

God's wrath enchantment, this rune magic from the gods can hurt him.

This test result shows that there is still a limit to the attacks that Siegfried's skin can resist.

Facing the gods and the creations related to the gods, his body bathed in dragon blood is not much different from a normal warrior.

After all, if you think about it, you should understand that it is impossible for the gods to allow things that they can't even deal with to exist or even fully formed.

God... Asa's desire to control is too strong, which has been proved before.

But it doesn't matter in this regard, because Siegfried's combat power has indeed been strengthened. Dragon blood forging does not seem to have any side effects, but it does strengthen his defense.

But Siegfried was a little unhappy, after all, it was a little different from what he thought.

After all, there is a difference between being immune to all damage and being immune to most damage except gods. The latter sounds a bit low.

No one likes to have something flawed, even if it's just by chance.

If you want to use an analogy, Siegfried's mentality is like finding out that the machine given by others is something that becomes a brick when it is connected to the Internet. You can play it, but you can't play it as you like.

So when he was returning the clothes, he always had a sullen look on his face. This kind of youth who wrote all the expressions on his face inevitably made Huode beside him laugh.

"What are you thinking? You think you don't need to practice martial arts because you have the flesh and blood armor protected by dragon's blood?"

"Of course not." Just when Hodder said that, Siegfried quickly refuted this point, "I just feel a little uncomfortable, and I feel a little regretful."

"After all, compared to these, a set of excellent armor can protect you well, and what's more important is the sword in your hand rather than the armor." Huo De said, "Or, are you going to wear heavy armor and swing your fists?"

The so-called enemy still has to be dealt with with the sharp sword in his hand, not to mention that the sword in Siegfried's hand is the reforged Holy Sword of God's Wrath.

This sword carried the glory of his father Siegmund's life, and was once famous in the atrium world. Even if it is a reforged holy sword, its power is beyond doubt.

but……

"I don't think I can hold this sword for the rest of my life." Looking at the holy sword lying quietly in his hand again, Siegfried couldn't help saying these words.

"Huh? Do you have any ideas?"

Hodder was quite curious about what Siegfried said, so he couldn't help but ask such a question.

"This sword is... my father Siegmund, but in my hands, it is just a prop for revenge."

Although he didn't know why he had such an idea, Hodder had a general understanding of what he wanted to say.

Unlike others, Siegfried doesn't seem to have any intention of claiming this powerful holy sword for himself.

"Uncle, you said before that this holy sword is inseparable from the name of my... father, Siegmund."

"Well, when he was young he drew the sword from the Barnstock, the tree of children."

To be honest, this is a well-known story in the Netherlands. Even now that the Hengding clan is ruling, the prestige of the Siegmund and Volsung clans is still circulating.

"When I return to the Netherlands and the city of Volsung, I will insert this sword back into that tree, or I will place this sword in my father's tomb."

This is Siegfried's idea, which sounds a bit stupid, but it may also prove the obsession in his heart.

"This sword has the glory and glory of the past, but it has nothing to do with me."

When talking about these words, Siegfried couldn't help but glanced at Hodder.

For him, his own thoughts are of course very important, but at the same time, he also cares about Hodder's opinion.

He knew that to his uncle the hero, the king, the father he had never met meant much to him.

It can even be said that it is precisely because he is Siegmund's heir that Hodder will take care of Siegfried in every possible way, so he still cares about Hodder's opinion.

Then, under his slightly disturbed gaze, Hodder reached out and stroked his smooth hair.

"That's a good idea."

After hearing what his uncle said, Siegfried couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

To be honest, he was still quite scared.

But it wasn't because he was afraid of his uncle, but because he was afraid that he would show some disappointed expression.

"After the grievances of the previous generation are settled, you should continue to move forward." Huo De said, "It's just that this sword is a rare sharp weapon. It's a pity to leave it like this."

"That's all right."

At this moment, a third voice intervened in such a conversation.

When Huo De looked over, he saw the dwarf got up from the ground, and he stood there with exhaustion written on his face.

"Even without Gorum, I can make him a decent weapon."

This should be something the craftsman is proud of, but at this moment, when Lai Jin himself mentioned this point, he didn't have much joy.

Even at this moment, his blue face was marked with palpable sadness.

As for why he feels sad, Hodder can actually understand, because he was the one who showed him the memory.

"I hope you don't blame me, I don't think you should be kept in the dark."

"I don't mean to blame you, Huo De, it's better to say, I should thank you, I saw a lot of things."

"Have you learned everything?"

"Well, I'm still a little confident in the manufacturing process."

"Then I'll leave this to you." Hodder took Fafnir's soul stone out of his inventory and handed it to Lakin.

"Hmm..." Holding the crystal clear soul stone carefully with both hands, Lai Jin's thoughts were quickly taken away by the soul stone.

He knew who this soul stone belonged to, and because of this, he was trying his best to adjust his breathing and calm himself down as much as possible.

But in the end, he finally raised his head.

"Hodder, I have something to discuss with you."

"for example?"

"The origin of casting weapons with the soul..."

After hearing what Lakin said, Hodder couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

Of course he guessed that the old dwarf would definitely ask this question, because this kind of news is a shocking event for every NPC in this worldview.

Of course, maybe the gods don't count...

Chapter 68: Edible

Forge weapons with the soul...

To be honest, this game in various fantasy backgrounds is not a new setting.

But "Nine Realms" is different. After all, this game is developed and operated by World Tree Company. After all, it is based on Norse legends. Its world view has a strong Germanic legend style.

For a long time, it has made a little modification on the basis of the original legend, bringing players an experience that does not violate.

But of course, players are human after all, so there will be various celebrations in this game, but the official celebrations and the serious atmosphere of the plot in the game are two different things after all.

The most important thing is that there is no legend about using souls as materials to make weapons in Nordic mythology.

Thinking about it now, Hodder can only sigh at the awesomeness of the Nordic donkeys. Their ambitions really seem to be quite big.

"I learned the origin of this technology from my father's 'last words'."

Maybe it's because Lai Jin himself was terrified by the huge amount of information, until now his face is full of lingering complexity.
