Old days in the box

Chapter 457 Who is our enemy and who is our friend?

At the same time, in another kingdom belonging to the elves.

Following the trail of the Goddess of Fertility, Zhou Xiao quickly turned his attention back to the territory of Alfheim and found the landing point of the Rainbow Bridge.

On a colorful living land, the cracks in space opened briefly and then quickly closed, and thousands of dazzling colors gushed out from it, along with the strange chanting of countless voices, re-forming into a huge human figure.

Victoria, the Warner goddess of fertility.

After reassembling that unusually huge body, He did not leave here immediately, but looked up at the quiet sky of Alfheim.

“You should be watching all this, right?” He spoke, and His voice vibrated from the earth, vegetation, and living things at the same time, like a chorus of thousands of people.

There was no response from the colorful living earth. Only schools of floating fish of various colors swarmed out from the cracks in the earth and slowly circled around their queen.

But Victoria still waited, as if her interlocutor was present.

The answer to who He was talking to seemed to be obvious.

"Have you known about my existence for a long time?" Zhou Xiao called up the channel permissions of the voice function and answered the huge goddess on the screen.

"Frei and Victoria, the twin brother and sister of the Vanir, haven't you heard of them? My brother and I are connected in thought. I knew it from the moment your Chosen One stepped into the Forest Palace." Victoria smiled.

"I just remember that the name wasn't supposed to be Victoria originally."

Zhou Xiao certainly knew about the most dazzling twin gods in Norse mythology, but in the myth, the brother and sister should be called Frey and Freya, not Victoria as we know today.

"Come on, you're really ruining the atmosphere." Victoria said with a girlish grumble, a mature woman's contempt, and an old woman's reproach. "I know the origins of your little chosen one, but you don't want to tell me that you're going to pursue this matter that happened a thousand years ago? I heard that you killed a lot of people when you were the owner of the box."

Freya was once the true goddess of love, but thousands of years ago when Victoria was still the holder of the box, she was killed by Victoria at the time, who seized her power and completely replaced her with the destiny-rewriting function.

After that, she, who was protected by fate, was like Vidal. Because of her unfinished historical mission, she began to be reborn in the human world over and over again, until she met Zhou Xiao——

Zhou Xiao had already learned about this series of events from Sun Hao. The reason why he came here so hard today to track them down was certainly not because of such an old event that happened thousands of years ago.

"I have no intention of pursuing what happened so long ago. I just came here to tell you the truth about Odin, but judging from your current appearance, you probably already know it, right?"

"He suddenly recast the laws of nature in such a high-profile manner, and brought Superman and Batman with him from the sky. Even if fate rewrote His history, it would be hard to guess who it was, right?"

Although fate rewrite can automatically correct the history of the world line, it cannot erase Victoria's memories about the earth.

From the moment the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse with American comic elements appeared, Victoria already understood the true identity of this "Odin".

"Since you already knew it was Him, why didn't you help Thor just now?"

"Then why didn't you take action?" The Goddess of Fertility smiled and shook her head.

During the brief silence, Zhou Xiao understood the helplessness hidden in his words. Odin was too powerful at that time, and even Zhou Xiao subconsciously chose to avoid him, let alone a physical god like Victoria.

"But your attitude - you don't agree with Odin's proposition, right?" Zhou Xiao asked.

The goddess of fertility gave a bitter smile, and her huge body flipped over the colorful earth, extending even larger veins into the distance.

"How should I answer you? As you can see, whether it's divinity or faith, it actually makes no difference to me and my country. If I can choose, I would rather enjoy eternal peace in this world and not care about what happens outside the universe."

The overflowing light streaked across the seductive curves of His body and slowly merged into the beating earth.

What he said was indeed right. As the gods who ruled over Alfheim, he and his brother had always been deeply worshipped by the elves. Whether it was the "authority" of the old pantheon or the "faith" of the new pantheon, the goddess of fertility and the god of plenty had easily joined in.

The levels of divinity/faith displayed on the information panel for both of them also indirectly confirm this statement.

Therefore, whether it is "equivalent exchange" or "believers are true" actually makes no difference to them.

"But Odin's new law of nature can only be perfected by the authority of God. In order to complete its establishment, He will definitely take action against you. You have no choice." Zhou Xiao pointed out the problem incisively.

“Don’t be so quick to put me against Him. I will fight Him, Child of the Old Ones.” Victoria looked up at the sky meaningfully, “But first, you must leave here as soon as possible.”

"why?"

"Odin let me go back to the kingdom of elves so easily because of you. He fears your ability, so he let me go back to see if you can gain a foothold under my nose, or even occupy my realm. This is a test, Son of the Old Ones."

The living earth began to shrink, and the fungal carpet-like things on the surface crawled onto Victoria's body, transforming into a living skirt that wrapped around her divine body, lifting her up high, and showing her majestic status as a queen.

"I don't know what means you used to force Him to leave, but judging from your desire to seek allies, you may not be as strong as He imagined. If He finds out, it will not be a good thing for both you and me."

Facing Victoria's statement, Zhou Xiao remained silent. Apart from Gaul who was controlled by Odin, he was the only remaining front box player in the entire Nine Realms. Zhou Xiao needed his power and the force of the old Nordic gods that he represented.

"I will fight against Odin, but only on one condition - the safety of Alfheim and my brother must be guaranteed. This is my prerequisite for everything. If anything conflicts with it, I will give it up immediately without hesitation. Do you understand?"

Unknowingly, too many strange creatures have gathered on this living land. Fanged light snakes and flying flesh balls swarm around the queen. Agile elves arrive riding on schools of light fish, showing a considerable degree of vigilance.

Victoria was also a box user, so she had to be wary of the possibility that Zhou Xiao might object to her claims.

But Zhou Xiao never refuted Him from beginning to end. He just responded calmly after He finished speaking:
"Leaving here was originally part of my plan. Just give me some more time. I understand your difficulties and I also know that it is difficult to get all the gods to agree on something at once. I just hope you understand: this is a war of life and death. If you lose, you will be extinct in the Nine Realms forever."

"I will convey your message, Child of the Old Ones." Victoria nodded.

"So be it." A faint sigh came from the roar, and then quickly faded away from the sky.
