Chapter 408 The Valkyrie's Farewell

1000 Two hundred years of waiting!

The once young warrior Viglaf has never abandoned his responsibilities during the long time spanning several centuries, and is stationed alone in this desolate border, far away from his hometown and all his relatives, just to abide by the Beowulf's promise!

After hearing Wiglaf's description, the Valkyries such as Yarvette were all deeply shocked by this persistence.

The lifespan of a mortal is only a hundred years, but this group of people has been waiting here for a full two hundred years.

According to the current standard of the United Nations, the life expectancy of most people is only about 80 years. If you do a little conversion, you can know that they have been waiting here for fifteen generations!

Moreover, ancient times were limited by various conditions.

Vikings in particular had very short lifespans, probably less than 40 years old, so that number is only going to get more!

The youth and lives of dozens of generations are just to abide by such a promise that spans thousands of years and centuries!

this moment.

Everyone's heart was deeply touched, and there was a hint of respect in their eyes.

Yarvette bit her lips lightly with her white teeth, and those beautiful eyes trembled slightly, as if to indicate how restless her heart was at the moment.

There were thousands of words, but in the end when the words came to his lips, they just turned into a sorry.

Just because apart from this sentence of sorry, there is no other word that can comfort the sacrifice and dedication of dozens of generations.

"No need to apologize to us."

Viglaf was expressionless, but his eyes were faintly beating with flames.

And this undoubtedly highlights that at this moment, in the depths of this man's heart, it is not as peaceful as it seems on the surface.

If there is no resentment in my heart, I'm afraid it's a false scene.

But even so...

Viglaf didn't say a word of resentment. After taking a deep breath to calm the restlessness in his heart, he said in a deep voice: "This is the story of King Beowulf and me, and it is also the truth of Aurora that you are looking for. Now it's your turn to fulfill your promise." !"

However, Alvette remained silent.

No matter from various angles, she should not hesitate at this moment.

That is the beacon left by the Valkyries, and they should inherit it, to complete this heavy promise that has lasted for centuries and ruin the youth and lives of dozens of generations, and to kill that evil dragon that has caused disasters to the world!

But time has changed, and now they are no longer Valkyrie.

Ever since they were rescued by Lord in Helheim, they had already drawn a clean line from the past, and decided to dedicate everything and even their lives to this Lord Spirit King.

Whether to agree to Viglaf's request and kill the evil dragon is not in their hands, but in the hands of the Spirit King.

Alvette turned her head slightly, and looked at Lord who was sitting behind.

She is seeking the opinion of the Lord Spirit King, because this point is very important, it is related to the position and attitude, so she must not be careless.

"Okay, I agree."

Knowing what Alvette meant, Lord thought inwardly that he was really sensible, and nodded: "Besides, there is still one problem that has not been clarified, so we have to meet anyway, this evil dragon that destroys the world .”

Although the words were not finished, the rest of the people had already understood what he meant.

In the legend of Beowulf described by Viglaf, it is said that the giant Grendel was controlled by an evil force and forcibly transformed into the appearance of the dragon.

Obviously, this evil force was the target of the first group of Valkyries!

But later, due to some special reason, the Valkyries died together with that evil force, leaving only a trace of consciousness lodged in the armor. Later, for some reason, that force suddenly revived, occupied and transformed the dead Grendel corpse.

So here comes the question...

Who is the sacred evil force that invaded Grendel, so that Odin, the king of the gods in Asgard, had to erase the record and existence of the original Valkyrie, and even in the thousands of years after that? Don't ask.

When Wiglaf was talking, Lord had a flash of light in his mind.

It seemed to faintly remind him that he had forgotten a crucial clue.But when he looked back and thought about it carefully, he couldn't remember what he had forgotten.

This matter is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface.

There should be a bigger secret hidden behind this legend, but due to the fact that there is too little known content, only Wiglaf can say that he can't connect these scattered clues.

"When can we set off and go to the cave where the dragon is sealed?" Arvette's tone seemed a little urgent, not just for those Valkyries, but also for fulfilling the promise made as soon as possible, or both.

"Not until two days later."

Wiglaf did not forget to explain after finishing speaking: "Only on the fire festival every ten years, the cave where the dragon is sealed will appear, and now we can't find it even in the past."

Many Valkyries looked at each other, showing surprise and confusion.

Only Poet Coti, the goddess of fate, said in a low voice: "It should be that someone used rune characters to set up shielding and hidden magic outside the cave, so they can't be found on weekdays."

"Rune text?"

Arvette was shocked again, staring at Shikoti fiercely, and said, "I remember that only Odin can use this kind of writing, right?"

"Yes."

Shikoti was a little shy when looked at by the sisters, nodded and said in a low voice: "Ruen is a gift from the World Tree, and only Odin can use it, so the one who puts the seal can only be him."

"Heh~ it's getting more and more interesting." Lord couldn't help laughing out loud, the old man's black history added another stroke!

"You... aren't Valkyrie?"

After hearing the conversation of the crowd, Wiglaf suddenly had a weird expression: "Isn't it a bit disrespectful to call the king of the gods by the name?"

"Valkyrie, it's a thing of the past."

Yarvette's face was calm, her beautiful eyes glowed with a trace of coldness, and said: "After being resurrected from Helheim, we have already abandoned our previous identity, so why not call him by his name?"

Viglaf looked confused, with a slightly complicated expression.

As an ancient Viking, I can't accept this fact. The Valkyrie who led the soldiers to the Hall of Valor betrayed the great king of the gods, and even called him by his name without respect.

"You don't need to know the details, we will fulfill our promise."

Yarvette didn't bother to explain to him, she waved her hands expressionlessly, and said in a deep voice, "This is also our farewell to the past, from now on there will be no more Valkyries in the world."

so......

This belongs to them, to the Valkyries, a farewell battle!

After completing this millennium-long promise, they will completely draw a line with the past
