Stupid Odin

#4 - Five thousand years of wisdom

Whether it's the epic poem "The Edda" or other Norse mythology stories, there are very few records about Borr.

Since Odin founded the Asgardian realm, there has been basically no news of Borr.

Theologians have different opinions on when Borr disappeared from the Aesir.

Some say Borr died in the Giant War, and some say there were traces of Borr in the later conquests of the Nine Realms.

The most widely accepted view is that Borr sacrificed himself to help Odin succeed.

Thanos agrees with this conclusion.

In any case, Borr facing hundreds of giants alone is definitely a bad omen. Even if he doesn't die, he will suffer from hidden injuries or even become disabled.

If this were just a single Jötunheimr world, Borr's departure would definitely be beneficial for Thanos to control the Aesir. Don't forget that these are just two parallel worlds, and the process of ordering in the other world is slower. Thanos couldn't wait, so he chose Jötunheimr.

Considering that if another world also gives birth to a group of gods, then it will truly fulfill Borr's idea—every member of the Aesir is precious!

After so many years of getting along, how could Thanos not know the bravery and sincerity of his cheap old man?

For the sake of his children and the future of the Aesir, Borr is sincerely willing to sacrifice his own life.

At this time, Odin flushed red and said, "Brother, why are you against me? Is there any problem with killing Ymir?"

"Odin's overall strategy is correct—our contradictions with most of the giants are irreconcilable, so our only chance of winning is to kill the frost giant ancestor Ymir. If he doesn't die, he can endlessly give birth to new giants. We can't kill them as fast as he can give birth to them."

Everyone nodded.

Mother Bestla said worriedly, "Ymir is very powerful."

"We are even more powerful!" Thanos said firmly: "As long as there is no giant army guarding him, our three brothers are confident that we can kill Ymir."

Odin was puzzled: "Then what are you against, brother?"

Thanos did not answer directly, but turned his gaze to his cheap old man: "Father, if you are besieged by the tallest giants, how many can you withstand at the same time?"

Borr pondered for a moment: "Ten… no, twenty."

Thanos didn't look at the others. The tough guy father Borr is already the strongest in this team. If he can't do it, no one else can.

Thanos said loudly: "That is to say, under normal circumstances, facing over a hundred giants at the same time, you are dead, Father."

When everyone heard this, their hearts sank.

Borr nodded, he didn't think he could escape unscathed either.

Nine pairs of burning eyes were cast on Thanos's face, waiting for the following.

"What I object to Odin is letting Father rush up alone to entangle the giant group in this combat method."

Borr is willing to sacrifice for the future of his children, but that doesn't mean he is happy to sacrifice casually: "Continue!"

Thanos used a stone axe to dig a hole in the ground: "Let's assume this is the Campbell Basin. Everyone knows that there are only two entrances and exits here. If most of the giants are led into the basin from here, and Uncle Buthis seals the entrance of the basin with large stones, then you, Father, only need to guard the other exit to trap hundreds of giants here."

Odin immediately understood when he heard this: "And we can take the opportunity to run to besiege Ymir, who lacks guards!"

"That's right!" Thanos nodded and continued to dig another hole next to the 'map': "This is the Amans Snow Pool. When the giants enter the basin, Mother and Aunt Laufey can lead Helblindi and Byleistr to smash open the edge of the snow pool and let the flood pour into the basin."

Not to mention Borr, the eyes of all the gods and giants present lit up.

Think about it, a large group of giants rushed over, but some were drowned by the ice water, and even if they weren't drowned, they struggled in the mud. Borr threw stones at the mouth of the valley, wouldn't it be accurate every time?

This plan is amazing!

Borr patted his chest and shouted excitedly: "If that's the case, I can fight a hundred!"

Everyone showed ecstatic expressions.

To be honest, anyone who has read a little bit of Romance of the Three Kingdoms knows how to fight this kind of battle.

As a time-traveler with five thousand years of wisdom, it's easy to handle this level of battle.

But in the Jötunheimr world, this is Thanos's 'original creation'!

The first inventor is naturally a genius!

"Sure enough, you are the smartest among us!" The old lady patted Thanos's shoulder with relief.

At this time, Loki was unhappy and shouted loudly: "Wait, everyone has a task, so what do I do?"

Thanos patted Loki on the shoulder and smiled mysteriously: "Don't worry, there is a very important task for you!"

Loki was overjoyed when he heard this: "Just leave it to me! I must be the key to this plan!"

"That's right, you are the key!"

Seeing Thanos's affirmative appearance, Loki suddenly had a bad feeling for some reason.

Just a little bit, no more.

At this time, Aunt Laufey suddenly said: "Actually, if Borr is willing, I can also get some giants to support us."

"Oh? What's going on?" Borr was overjoyed.

Laufey leaned over and conspired loudly in front of Thanos at 100 decibels.

Thanos's face darkened on the spot.

Just as he was about to say 'Father God, please listen to my defense', Borr spoke: "It's settled! Let your sisters spread the news that if they are willing to support our Aesir in this battle, including my eldest son Thanos, my sons will give priority to choosing wives among them."

They naturally referred to those female giants.

At this moment, Thanos, the recognized 'God of Wisdom', was messy in the cold wind.

Victory always comes at a price.

No one said that the price was himself!

Thanos had never thought about playing the 'sky as a quilt and the earth as a bed' with this kind of tall, beautiful woman who was three stories high since he traveled through time to become a god!

But in the eyes of his parents, this is the right thing to do.

Borr has rejected the female giants, so what are you, as a son, complaining about?

Thanos wanted to say—even if I want to do it, I'll wait until humans come out, or wait until the Vanir are born.

But he couldn't say a word of objection.

This is the first major crisis since the establishment of the Aesir. It is necessary to unite all forces that can be united.

Of course, the price to pay includes himself.

So, Laufey happily slipped back to the giants to secretly act as a matchmaker.

The female giants were all moved.

This is an extremely barbaric world.

All female giants instinctively admired the strong, and the four male members of Borr's family were all famous for their fighting skills.

In addition, the male gods of the Aesir are all handsome, and their appearance completely crushes the male giants. The key is that the Aesir can also become larger, so there are no problems at all.

Laufey didn't spend much effort to get a group of female giants to defect. Most of the female giants chose to remain neutral and watch, but some bold female giants chose to directly support the Aesir.
