Ice and snow world

As night falls, dark shadows erode every inch of land, but in some people's hands, a ray of light illuminates everything.The slender fingers danced, and the dots of light were swung out into lines. The lines intertwined and floated in the air, and the curly and soft swinging lines gradually formed a three-dimensional model.

"This is Yggdrasil." Elsa sighed and stood beside Loki, watching him wave his hands to make the model start to rotate, and couldn't help saying "it's so beautiful" again

"I accept your compliment." Loki turned his face and nodded, and took her words unceremoniously, with his hands behind his back, he walked around the model of the World Tree, pointing at the root of the tree with one hand and telling their myths , "The first root goes deep into Asgard. The second root, Jotunheim, dwelling of giants. The third root, Niflheim, land of mist."

"So, the world tree here is not this one?" Although listening to Loki's narration, Elsa understood the meaning of Yggdrasil, but she was not sure whether such an existence existed in the current world.

"No, Yggdrasil will only be this tree. He connects the whole world, and the nine kingdoms are composed of her. This space is not separated from the scope of the World Tree." Loki seems to be very sure of this, his moss-green eyes narrowed From now on, the gloomy smile returned to his face, this is the first time since entering the imperial capital, "How stupid they must be to fill the empty glory in the name of [Yggdrasil]."

"If it's just a fake, then why didn't anyone find out? If there is no real supplement for the event rewards every few years, I think this problem has been exposed long ago, hasn't it?" Elsa didn't have the same emotion as Loki, but just thought hard with the problems in it.

"Of course. It's not the World Tree, but it has other satisfying powers, which are enough to arouse my curiosity."

"What are you going to do again?" Elsa felt that if she wasn't used to it, one day she would be left behind by Loki's thoughts and actions.

"Oh, don't use this tone, just go to a small banquet." Loki stretched out his hand in the light and shadow of the world tree, scattered the phantom, and looked at the girl in the darkness, "Just you and me."

When Elsa stood outside the closed temple, looking at the tall buildings, she felt that she should have known that the banquet that Loki was talking about was just a nocturnal event, but the venue and purpose of the banquet were unusual.

"Here" Loki sat on the top of the temple, waved to the sighing Elsa, and the raised ending sound showed his good mood.

Swinging away the cloak that blocked her arms, Elsa leaped up, causing ice to form between her hands and feet and the stone wall, and smoothly climbed to Loki's side. She really didn't understand why she appeared here, and she did ask: "Why did I Want to attend this [small banquet] too?"

Loki was half leaning against the roof, as if lying on a soft bed, facing Elsa with that innocent face: "Why don't you participate? Explore the secret taboo, and then destroy the false surface, show the ugliest truth, what an interesting thing. "

"If, that's not false, I mean, another kind of reality" Elsa had to remind him of another possibility.

"Hmmm...then end the party with a dance under the [World Tree]"

Jumping into the courtyard of the temple from the top, Loki no longer hides, every step just avoids the servants of the temple, which also makes Elsa have to walk side by side with him, and take the same route with Loki when the road forks.

The footsteps stopped, not far in front of the two, a stone door was closed, two holy swordsmen in heavy armor stood with their swords, their closed eyes made them look like sculptures, but there was no movement They'll draw that long sword.

Elsa leaned against the stone pillar with her arms folded. The tiredness brought by the night made her eyes half-downcast. The purple eye shadow was dyed black by the night, and her white hair gave her a deadly solemnity. This feeling: "Maybe you can go over and tell them you're just passing by?"

"Of course not, we need some little artistic means, like, a twig." Loki picked up a twig from one of the ornamental bushes, and waved it as if to test his hand. Elsa had to admit that her curiosity was indeed aroused by him, so when Loki went straight to the two holy swordsmen, she followed without hesitation.

The clear sound of footsteps rang in the ears of the two, but did not reach the ears of the holy swordsman. After Loki and Elsa walked in front of them, Loki turned around and walked straight to the passage on the right side of the stone gate. Shimen walked, turned around and looked back at the holy swordsman who had opened his eyes. Fortunately, they didn't seem to notice.

"Well, it would be better if there was music." Loki stroked the branch in his hand, letting it change shape into a cane little by little. While Elsa was waiting for his move, Loki stood by the wall as if nothing had happened, shaking his arms to let his palm Hold the bottom of the palm, and then raise the hand.

"In fact, everything is very simple, just like this." The cane was swung from the bottom, and the handle part hit the intact stone wall. Elsa was surprised that there were indeed fine cracks like spider webs on the wall, and Loki seemed to have finished a jump. Dance steps, hold the top of the cane and stick it to the ground, spread the palm of one hand and lead Elsa to the wall.

This time, they finally knew Loki's plan, and Elsa also understood that the two holy swordsmen on their left were completely isolated from this area, and could not feel the slightest change.

A blue light was waved casually, and the cracks on the wall were covered with frost, and then cracked into tiny pieces. Elsa pushed forward and walked into the big hole that opened.

It's like entering another world, with lush grass, blooming flowers, and a huge tree on the central spring, a tree surrounded by colorful mist.Looking up and being attracted by the brilliant light of this [World Tree], Elsa hardly dared to breathe, worried about breaking the tranquility, until Loki's chuckle sounded.

"So, this is Yggdrasil?" With a sarcasm, no one could answer, Elsa just lifted the hem of her skirt, stepped over the roots that escaped from the side branches, and came to Loki's side.

"Maybe she can't be called Yggdrasil, but she is enough to be a country's faith."

The gentle and peaceful breath enveloped the whole body, and Elsa could feel the magic power in her body being nourished, full of vitality and hope.

Elsa is not alone in feeling this wonderful sense, but Loki didn't behave like Elsa, he just sat on the ground under the [World Tree], picked up a fruit on the ground, and sneered.

"Prize?" Elsa asked with some uncertainty. Such a small fruit obviously does not grow from [World Tree]. We can only guess that it was placed here later to nourish it into [World Tree's fruit] .

"Look at this sacred product placed everywhere." Loki threw the fruit upwards, and held it again. If it was just a tone of praise, it was a pity that it was not, "What a noble royal family, what a holy temple, give the best Prizes, but worthless rubbish. Maybe I should praise Odin, at least he doesn't use such things to deceive their warriors"

Avoiding the scattered fruits on the ground, Elsa approached the bottom of the [World Tree], looked up at the leaves wrapped in clouds and mist: "Dear prince, put away your [Grateful Dade], I think at least those victors didn't complain Their prizes are too simple. Do you think she really has fruit?"

Loki threw away the fruit in his hand, and looked up following Elsa's gaze: "Maybe, maybe not. There are many ways to seek the truth, which one do you like?"

"I like this kind." The corners of Elsa's lips curled up obliquely, Elsa swept away her tiredness before, and raised her arms to the top of the [World Tree]. hit.

The wind and snow seeping through the branches of the leaves stained each leaf with frost, and the emerald green was covered by white, except for a touch of red in the center of the treetop.

Sensing that there were indeed fruits, Elsa removed the wind and snow to restore them to their original appearance, and the colorful mist swirled back, which gave her a strange feeling, as if the tree knew what she had done.

"With such ordinary power, it still can't be compared with Yggdrasil. It seems that our banquet has to end early." Loki's tone made Elsa feel a little regretful, like an unsatisfied child.

Just when Elsa was about to leave with Loki, the [World Tree] in front of her began to shake, and a breath different from before gushed out from the trunk, subverting the illusion of peace, domineering and cold

A blood-red light radiated from the top of the tree, and things wrapped in the light fell from the sky. This time even Loki was attracted. Elsa was almost awed by the light, but she didn't know what to do.

As if sensing her helplessness, the bloody light faded, leaving only the red fruit.Observe carefully, the fruit is in the shape of an apple, but the outer shell is indeed a transparent crystal, and the red color inside is filled with a bright red liquid.

The fruit stopped in front of Elsa's eyes in the air, and fell suddenly.

Elsa habitually stretched out her hands to catch it, and the cold fruit gradually became hot in her palm, and the temperature climbed to the point where she wanted to let go of her hands and throw it away.The hands protruding from behind held her palms, the freezing temperature came, and frost formed in Elsa's palms, helping her to hold the fruit, but Loki's arms had completely turned blue, and this change made Elsa Elsa was a little worried.

"Calm down, get it under control" the emotionless voice made it impossible for Elsa to hear his emotions, but it had to be admitted that it worked.

Elsa controlled the temperature in her hands, allowing cold air to gather in her palms, covering the blood-red fruit, and the blue ice gradually covered the blood. Just when she thought she had successfully isolated the temperature, there was a crackling sound.

The thin ice cracked, blood-red gas escaped, and there was nothing in the palm.
