A blinding golden light appeared behind the Pope. Standing in front of the golden light, the corners of his mouth that were not covered by the mask turned up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.Alfred's forehead twitched, and the uneasiness in his heart expanded rapidly like ripples splashed by water droplets.

He took a step forward, magic unleashed quietly, ready to wrest Viri from the Pope at any moment.

He yelled: "Yuli! What tricks are you playing?"

"What tricks can I play?" the Pope said, he stretched out his fingers and tapped lightly in the air, "You shouldn't do some small tricks secretly."

There was a piercing pain in Alfred's palm.The warm blood quickly soaked his palm, and his magic was easily seen through and interrupted by the Pope.

"I hope we will have a chance to meet again in the future." The pope put his hand back into his sleeve.

Depressing Alfred obviously put him in a very good mood. The curvature of the pope's mouth became more and more obvious. He even looked at the dwarf's long beard leisurely and sighed: "You are getting old."

Blood trickled down from the fist, staining the white stone floor red.

Enduring indescribable pain, Alfred raised his head to gaze at this familiar yet unfamiliar face.They are obviously twins, they have the same face, but their temperaments are completely different...

wrong!

Alfred was about to take a closer look, but the golden light behind the pope magnified instantly, dazzling like a sun, burning everyone's eyes.Everyone present subconsciously closed their eyes and turned their heads aside to avoid eye injuries.

Bathed in the blazing light, Alfred heard the pope's deep and gentle voice: "Biver, I have a gift for you all, I hope you like it."

The ominous premonition grew stronger, but he couldn't open his eyes in the strong light, and once he opened them, he would become blind.

When the light disappeared, the figure of the Pope also disappeared from their field of vision, leaving nothing behind.

—and with Viri, whose life and death are uncertain.

Sean felt a white light flickering in front of his eyes, making everything blurry as if separated by a layer of frosted glass.He stood up staggeringly, and grabbed Mason's wrist beside him: "That was the Pope just now? I saw Veri beside him!"

"Don't panic," Mason held the back of his hand. Although his tone was gentle, his expression was equally dignified. "The Pope will not kill Willy."

The magicians flocked to flee to the Rainbow Bridge, and the stone bricks under their feet suddenly began to tremble.

The sky was gloomy, and layers of black clouds piled up at unknown times, accumulating heavily over Asgard.Mason and Alfred glanced at each other, remembering the origin of Ymir at the same time.

Think of the meaningful words before the Pope left.

The tremors under his feet were getting bigger and bigger, and Alfred's premonition came true.With a disheveled face, he waved his arms, driving away the lambs, and the magicians who were running outside shouted hoarsely: "Go! This city is about to collapse!"

boom--

There was a deafening bang in the distance.

Xiao En turned his head and saw that the tall white tower began to crumble.

Starting from the top of the tower, cracks appeared one after another, and these gaps gradually expanded, and the snow-white tower was torn apart, disappearing little by little from top to bottom.In just tens of seconds, the high tower in the center of Asgard turned into fine sand before everyone's eyes, and quickly dissipated in the wind.

There was a wave of waves in the shallow lake surrounding the city.

Alfred was in a hurry, and found that Sean was still looking at the tower of the world tree in a daze. He hated iron and steel, stomped his feet in anger, and simply reached out and dragged Sean and Mason, and ran towards the Rainbow Bridge.

The moment I escaped from the city gate and stepped on the Rainbow Bridge, the surroundings were spinning.

The ankle-deep shallow lake turned golden, and the crashing sound of gravel from the collapse of the city behind was getting louder and louder, almost breaking the eardrums.

Xiao En was dizzy, and the moment he left the city gate, his brain seemed to be pierced by thousands of needles at the same time, his eyes turned black, and the back of his head throbbed with pain.

As soon as he stepped onto the Rainbow Bridge, he sat down and said nothing.

The magicians of the Greenland Empire and the academy were all intact. Alfred counted the number of people panting, and then let everyone rest for a while.The arrival of the pope just now made most of the magicians lose their strength, and the magic stored in their bodies escaped everywhere.

Sean supported his head, taking deep breaths.

While patting him on the back, Mason raised his head and asked Alfred, "Mr. Beaver?"

Alfred took out a handkerchief from his arms and wiped the sweat from his forehead.He frowned with a few deep marks, and said casually: "Head pain is normal. If you want to leave Asgard, you must pass the test of the gods, but the gods have been dead for more than a thousand years, and the consciousness left behind is also very weak. , can only make people's head hurt."

"Then I have to be thankful that the gods have long since fallen?" Sean couldn't laugh or cry.

Alfred stroked his beard and said with a smile: "If the gods hadn't fallen, there wouldn't be a child like you—this is a false proposition."

After resting for about ten minutes, Alfred yelled at the magicians to move on.

Mason supported Sean, and the two occasionally turned their heads to look at Asgard floating on the top of the clouds.

The majestic city lost its original color due to the constant vibrations, gravel and dust fell one after another, and the white buildings were mottled, revealing a dull gray.The sky was full of dust, and the sky was dyed yellow.Even the tall and thick city walls became low, and the huge stone bricks were broken into pieces, and they collapsed in a short while.

Sean squinted his eyes and noticed that the snow on the top of the mountain was rumbling down.

"Avalanche?" he murmured, "Not much."

The towering peaks kept trembling, and the snow covered the top of the mountain, but it did not decrease at all.Standing on the Rainbow Bridge, Sean still felt the bone-chilling chill, brought by the wind, as if it could freeze a person's blood together.

Under the white snow, something seemed to be moving, and Sean finally found a suitable description——

The mountain "lived" over.

The roar echoed in everyone's ears, and Alfred ran fast with his short legs, not at all like a gray-haired old man.

The Rainbow Bridge is very long, and they hadn't walked halfway through the journey when they heard a loud noise that was earth-shattering.

This loud noise was far harsher than the previous one, and everyone temporarily lost the ability to hear it.Sean felt a pain in his shoulder, and he turned to Mason blankly, only seeing Mason's mouth opening and closing, but he couldn't hear what he was saying at all.

Alfred also stopped, frowned, and looked in the direction of Asgard.

At this time, they were far away from the lost city.

The Rainbow Bridge spans the field, and the bridge is surrounded by floating clouds, and the bridge is covered with a layer of iridescent halo.Behind them the high walls of Asgard were gone, but the city itself was much higher.After a closer look, I discovered that it was not the city getting taller, but the snow-capped mountains suddenly rising.

Alfred beckoned everyone to stop.

Sean was dazed and sat down by Mason. He couldn't hear anything, and the silence around his ears was terrifying.In just a few minutes, Sean felt like a whole year had passed.For the passage of time, his feelings began to be sluggish, and it was not until someone patted his shoulder hard that Sean suddenly woke up.

His hearing also returned to normal.

"What's going on?" He looked back and found Alfred standing behind him, with his hands on his and Mason's shoulders, one on each side.

"Don't worry," Alfred said in a deep voice, "The middle section of the Rainbow Bridge is the safest place, and it will never be destroyed."

The snow mountain swayed constantly, boulders and snow rolled down one after another.

boom--

A strong arm broke through the top of the mountain.

That arm was beyond everyone's imagination. Sean's eyes flickered, and he couldn't believe his eyes.

Everyone on the Rainbow Bridge was in an uproar. A few seconds later, the other hand also stretched out from the mountain. Mason suddenly remembered something and said in surprise, "That's..."

He looked at Alfred, hoping to get an answer from this respected dwarf.

"Giant." Alfred said, "This is the Pope—no, the gift Yuli said, he still hasn't changed at all."

Mason was worried: "But Undine is still in the city."

Undine and Mason have a good relationship, even knowing Undine's ability, Mason still can't help worrying about her.

"Windini is a smart girl, she can protect herself." Alfred added immediately, "Even if Asgard collapses, the World Tree will be fine."

In the legend of the elves, the body of the giant Ymir turned into a separate world.

The mountains in front of me are actually sleeping giants.

Standing on the Rainbow Bridge, they could see the dry branches and leaves of the World Tree from a distance.Sean, Mason and others witnessed the destruction of the city, the collapse of the White Tower, and the withered branches of the world tree showing the scorched black after the fire. At this time——the moment when the giant stood up, those dark branches suddenly grew rapidly.

The magicians behind Alfred opened their eyes wide, watching the birth of the miracle.

On one side, the mountains are cracked, and on the other side, the dead trees are in spring.

The strong contrast stimulates everyone's attention.

The giant who had been sleeping for thousands of years and whose body was almost integrated with the earth slowly woke up. Alfred could almost hear the creaking sounds of his limbs and joints.The sky was getting darker, and even snow was falling.

After a long period of time, the giant who once dominated the land finally reappeared on this land.
