Midgard is a martial world. Several kingdoms here are in conquest all year round. Although they occasionally enter into peace or trade treaties with each other, such treaties will be destroyed due to various problems.
Sometimes it's because of interests, sometimes it's because of the hatred between nobles and royal families, sometimes it's because of the so-called 'divine revelation', and among Midgard, there is one person who, although he has not stated it explicitly, even a Commoner like him knows the rules: kings and warriors will be protected by the gods.
This is not a joke, because Siegfried has heard that in the stories of the former king Siegmund that were circulated in the Netherlands, the gods played a vital role in guiding Siegmund. It's no secret that Siegmund's son even has a Valkyrie as his wife
In today's annual festivals in the Netherlands, the Valkyrie will also come to congratulate King Legni. Growing up, Siegfried has seen many Valkyries. Every year at the festival, these beautiful women and warriors Our dream lovers are never absent
So over time, Siegfried formed an inherent impression in his heart: the king was protected, and the Valkyrie had a close relationship with the king.
This was also what he was worried about, so when faced with Hoder's question, Siegfried hesitated a little at first, but finally nodded.
"Yes, those beautiful women always come and go, and they can fly. I'm afraid they will..." He did not continue, he just looked up at the wooden window, as if he felt that someone was stealing from outside. listen to that
Hoder was not surprised that the future dragon-slaying hero would show some nervous worries at this time. Hoder, who had already experienced the expansion pack "The Rise of Völsung", knew very well the attitude of these NPCs towards the Valkyrie camp.
The king is protected, and the Valkyries will assist the kings of Midgard under the orders of the gods. This is something everyone knows, and it is even written into the setting set of the game. In the game, almost all NPCs Subconsciously, they think that Valkyries can do anything for the kings and warriors they choose and protect, even serving as eyes and ears.
Of course, with the abilities of the Valkyries, they can hide anywhere. Their wide wings allow these women with excellent combat capabilities to come and go without a trace. They can travel around Midgard without a war horse or other mounts. Of course you can do this kind of thing just by snooping.
But then, before Siegfried could say anything more, Hoder directly denied this.
"I don't have a good impression of those women, but I still know one thing, they are neutral."
To put it bluntly, the Valkyries has never belonged to any camp in Midgard. Denmark, the Netherlands, the Goths, Gitland and even Burgundy, no matter which kingdom they are in, can't order the Valkyries. They can only leaning towards their favored side in a particular war
"real? "Perhaps because the second half of Hoder's words was more important to this young man, Siegfried almost subconsciously ignored the first half of what he said, "So, can I also get help from the Valkyrie??"
His eyes were clear, and there was no haze in them. To put it bluntly, although Siegfried was in adolescence, he was not someone who walked the earth on a third leg. The reason why he was so excited was just the world view set by the game.
In this atrium world, getting the help of the Valkyrie means becoming a 'hero'. In this worldview that advocates individual heroism, the Valkyrie is almost bound to heroes and brave men.
"I suggest you don't place your wishes on those wallflowers. "At the moment when Siegfried felt joy in his heart, Hoder directly denied all his inner thoughts, "Those women never sincerely help others, they just have an 'investment vision'."
After all, Hoder is a foreign player, and he is not too interested in the traditional culture in the world view designed by the developers that is based on Norse mythology.
However, just because he didn't catch a cold didn't mean that Siegfried could understand his pure 'player thinking'. He just blinked his eyes with an incomprehensible look. This expression almost made Hoder think that he was I said something that I shouldn't have said that caused a bug in the scene.
But in the end, Siegfried spoke.:
"Ah, um..." He hesitated, seeming to be hesitating whether he should ask
However, this hesitation did not last long, because to him, the person in front of him was his uncle. If he had to hide it, then he might not be able to ask this question for the rest of his life.
"Uncle, you... seem to hate Valkyrie.?"
No wonder Siegfried found this issue difficult to discuss. In their understanding, there should be no people who hate Valkyrie. Everyone longs to enter the glorious Valhalla, where the palace is the destination of heroes. , and it must be a great honor to meet the Valkyrie.
Would anyone hate this honor??
The answer is yes...
It's just that they are not NPCs in this game world, but players from outside.
Although more players are good-looking people, there are indeed a small number of guys who are not interested in Valkyrie. Even if they work hard to complete the missions of the Valkyrie camp for the final reward in the game, but in the forum Still criticizing them for their behavior like being a fool
Compared with these players who will not fight against real interests, Hoder is actually more emotional.
"yes. He never denied this, "I don't like those women, and..."
"and?"
"I have killed many"
For a moment, Siegfried was speechless. He didn't know what to say. Even at this moment, he wanted to reach out and take off his uncle's helmet that seemed to never come off and see his expression at this moment. Because for a moment, Siegfried thought Hoder was joking with him
But in the end, he didn't do that. He just looked at Hoder. He looked at his helmet and the eyes in the helmet. Those dull, dull eyes never showed any emotion. Now they looked inexplicable. Somewhat scary
But in fact, Hoder doesn't know this, and he doesn't know what Siegfried is thinking. He only knows that he is talking nonsense and the topic is getting further and further. It is completely inappropriate to continue talking like this.
This is deviating from the main line....
He sighed in his heart, and the expression under his helmet was a little subtle, and then he forced the topic back on track.
"In short, these are not the point. The point is, what do you think now? It is just a matter of one sentence."
