"Freya, didn't you want to know about your brother? Why are you hesitant to tell you now that I'm about to?"
She laughed, saying that this was her home turf and she wasn't worried about crashing or burning.
"Hurry up and tell me! I'm leaving after you're done." Freya snorted coldly. Jormungandr's constant teasing had finally angered this pretty girl.
"Your brother wants to contact me to plot the murder of the Black Emperor."
Jormungandr didn't linger, speaking very softly, so softly that Freya almost couldn't believe it.
"What?" Freya scratched her beautiful hair. Even she realized the seriousness of the problem. She looked at Wang Anzhi with a trembling voice, subconsciously seeking the person she trusted most at that moment.
"He's crazy?"
“Obviously not,” Wang Anzhi shook his head, then turned to Jormungandr, his gaze sharp: “Your Highness Jormungandr, have you agreed to Prince Frey’s request for rebellion?”
"certainly……"
Jormungandr drew out his words, admiring the man who carried one of his "eggs" inside him and the anxious look in his sister's eyes, with whom he had never gotten along.
After a long silence, she finally spoke:
"I disagree."
She scoffed, "How could I possibly agree to his outlandish plan?"
“That’s good,” Freya said, not at all worried about her brother’s failure, but rather happy. “He failed to win over the four monarchs, so naturally he has to abandon his foolish plan, right?”
Freya looked at Wang Anzhi, wanting to seek comfort from him once again.
Wang Anzhi immediately thought of the "Black Serpent" that the future "Zero" had mentioned as the only one who had not betrayed them. He did not want to tell Freya about this turbulent matter, that there were actually people who could regard the four monarchs as "servants".
At this moment, Jormungandr interrupted her sister's reverie, coldly saying:
“I refused him not because I didn’t want to kill the Black Emperor, but because there’s a mastermind behind your brother that even I don’t know about. Compared to him, your brother isn’t even a mastermind.”
Jormungandr looked at Freya and said, word by word:
“I can sense your brother’s respect, or rather ‘loyalty’, to that so-called mastermind. This is not a characteristic that a monarch should have.”
She walked step by step to Freya, grasped her dazed face, and slowly lifted it up, while also lowering her own head slightly, her tone becoming more gentle:
"Compared to you, your brother Frey is even less like a king."
That's why I rejected him.
She touched Freya's smooth face, gently released her, and mocked:
"Do you understand? My dear sister."
Chapter 103 The Third Supreme Being - Buli
At this moment, Wang Anzhi helped Freya up, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and held the somewhat weak Freya in his arms.
He sighed, looked up at Jormungandr, and had to admit, it was quite a sight to see him looking up at his junior sister while holding her.
He asked, "Has His Highness Frey contacted you since then, Your Highness Jormungandr?"
“Don’t call him Prince Frey. Ever since he willingly knelt, he has been unworthy to be my brother, nor to bear the title of monarch.” Jormungandr clapped his hands, his face full of disgust.
With a sigh, Wang Anzhi readily agreed and continued:
"Yes, Frey, Your Highness Jormungandr, has Frey contacted you?"
“No,” Jormungandr shook his head. “Frey hasn’t contacted me since ten years ago.”
"What about the other four monarchs? Has he been in contact with them?" Wang Anzhi asked again. He felt Freya in his arms move slightly, as if she had regained her former liveliness.
Jormungandr gave him a deep look, and then said:
"As far as I know, he has not contacted Fenrir. Of all the Kings of the Earth and the Mountains, he has only contacted me."
"What about the King of Bronze and Fire? Among all the dragons, he has the deepest mastery of alchemy. If a rebellion were to be launched, it would be impossible not to contact him," Wang Anzhi continued.
“Norton and Constantine met with Frey, but the two brothers rejected Frey before I did.” Jormungandr didn’t hesitate much, seemingly already confident.
She added, "But at the same time, they, like me, did not report this to the Black Emperor, otherwise the Black Emperor's anger would not have been so mild not long ago."
Then, before Wang Anzhi could ask any more questions, Jormungandr said to himself, "As for the Lords of the Sky and the Wind, whether it is Odin or Loki, they are the most cunning. They had already met Frey once, but the two sides did not reach an agreement, so it was left unresolved."
"And then? What happened after that?" Wang Anzhi pressed on, "Did Frey show up again?"
He looked down at Freya. This naive girl never expected that she would suddenly face the cruelest side of the world. No one knew the Black Emperor's horror better than her.
He is the creator of the Four Lords, and in even more distant times, he was also the creator of the Elder Council and all dragons. If the White Emperor still has a slight possibility of being approached by the Four Lords, then the Black Emperor has absolutely no such possibility.
Does the legendary supreme god who wields the power of four monarchs—the thunder god Thor and the eternal god-king Zeus—actually exist?
No one can tell.
Even if He exists, can He defeat the Black Emperor instead of ultimately failing like the White Emperor?
It could be said that when Freya learned that her brother had followed a mysterious man and decided to rebel against the Black Emperor Nidhogg, his life began its countdown in Freya's eyes.
Even though the King of the Ocean and the King of Water had the most tenacious vitality among all monarchs, and it was even said that the ocean god "Niord," after the brother and sister devoured each other, could rival the Black Emperor in vitality.
But that's no excuse for you to court death, bro! Besides, you haven't even devoured me to become "Niord" yet!
When Freya heard Wang Anzhi's question, although she had little expectation left, she still weakly raised her head to look at Jormungandr, hoping that this "sister" could give her an answer.
Of all the monarchs, she was the youngest, and therefore she should have the right to be capricious.
Will fate smile upon her?
Obviously not. Fate will always belong to the Black Emperor Nidhogg, who has always been cruel to his offspring who betray him.
Jormungandr looked at the two of them and told them very clearly:
"After that, Frey disappeared without a trace."
Seeing Freya lying listlessly in Wang Anzhi's arms, she felt her displeasure intensify for some reason, and couldn't help but say another word:
"Of course, you might as well hope that he can defeat our father and become the new emperor?"
Freya didn't catch Jormungandr's sarcasm and waved her hand, "How could he possibly have that ability?"
Jormungandr choked for a moment and didn't continue speaking.
At this point, Wang Anzhi asked again:
"Your Highness Jormungandr, do you know who is capable of making Frey submit?"
He recalled what his future junior sister had once said: "Throughout history, there are only three people who can change their bloodline." This meant that she had met these three "supreme beings" who could "rewrite their bloodline."
Nidhogg the Black Emperor is naturally one of them, as is Yggdrasil the White Emperor. So, who is the third one?
Wang Anzhi knew it was Lu Mingfei, or "Zero," but what was his identity in the myth?
Jormungandr paced back and forth in the empty hall, seemingly hesitant about whether to tell the two men.
In the end, she decided to tell them.
Not to mention that Wang Anzhi had her "egg" inside him, which was another way out for her. She should have let him know more to increase his chances of survival.
Even Freya, in these turbulent times, should try to win over her sister. Right now, even devouring dragon bones risks being discovered by their father, so winning over a living monarch is naturally an option.
Moreover, the King of the Ocean and Water, known for his vitality, is probably not someone she can kill so easily.
She whispered:
"When Frey came to visit us, he provided us with a piece of evidence that made us submit: a sub-species, whose former name I remember was Chernobog, who was placed next to the Black Emperor's throne."
However, when I saw him again, he had become a first-generation being, a Grand rank, lacking authority but no longer subject to the constraints of bloodline.
"This was how they showed me the methods of the so-called 'master' who had made them submit," Jormungandr recalled.
“Rewriting bloodlines is something only the Black Emperor and the White Emperor can do,” Freya said softly, surprised that her brother had been involved so deeply.
Wang Anzhi became increasingly certain of the identity of the person who had secretly instigated the rebellion. He just didn't know if the rebellion had started yet, or if the Black King Nidhogg had been dealt a heavy blow as Loki had said.
Jormungandr continued his narration, his voice tinged with melancholy:
“Yes, this is a method that only the ‘Supreme’ can do,” Frey told me.
His current master's name is Buri, the ancestor of all gods—Buri, and all dragons born now should rightfully submit to him.
Chapter 104 The Black Emperor's Execution
"Dengdengdeng..."
At an altitude of 20,000 meters, in this small hall sealed off by the Nibelungen, the sound of "knocking" gradually began.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you've been isolated here for too long. I think it's time for you to embrace something new. Please open the door."
A gentle-sounding voice silently reached the ears of the three.
Wang Anzhi looked at Jormungandr and nodded almost involuntarily.
Sure enough, it was the same familiar atmosphere.
My junior sister messed up again.
It was said to be an absolute barrier that even the Black King couldn't detect, but in reality, anyone could easily come forward and interrupt their conversation.
He recognized the voice; in fact, he remembered it vividly. Just a few days ago, this voice had visited the White Emperor Yggdrasil at the World Tree.
He is Loki.
Jormungandr noticed Wang Anzhi's gaze and felt somewhat embarrassed, but she casually waved her hand to open a passage from inside Nibelungen, letting Loki, who was still isolated outside, in.
Then she stubbornly explained:
"The King of Sky and Wind is the one among the four monarchs who has the deepest insight into the intangible and illusory 'rules,' so it is normal that it is impossible to block their sight and hearing at close range."
Wang Anzhi nodded, with an "yes, yes, yes" expression, but his mood actually improved.
He knew it! The junior sister's "wise and mighty" demeanor just now seemed like an illusion. Sure enough, the junior sister soon revealed her true colors.
Freya naturally recognized this older brother, and she asked curiously, "Why did Loki come here?"
Wang Anzhi looked outside and said calmly:
"What else could it be? It can only mean that something big has happened outside. Prince Jormungandr's barrier can block outsiders from peeping in, and naturally it also blocks our access to the outside world."
“This is merely an exception,” Jormungandr said, emphasizing deliberately, after hearing Wang Anzhi’s words.
