Rebirth of the Viking King

2 days later, Conqueror's Fortress

The "Yinyuyuan" in early spring is still cold, but when the sun slanted into the "Light Touch Hall", Ivar O'Sullivan chose to hold a royal meeting on the top floor of the Conqueror's Fortress.

There were three people sitting beside him, and the leader was the storm monk "The Wise" Nibru who had disappeared from the river valley for a long time.

Below him, there was also the leader of this round of "Sabertooth Mercenaries", Wesker Sabertooth Leopard, and Ivar's adjutant, the chief of staff who almost always followed him.

He has no name, only a code name: Black Shark.

Although the sun has slanted down, it is still cold in the Light Touch Hall. After the maids and servants were dismissed, there were only 4 people left in the empty hall. They sat around a round table. In the center of the round table, there was a paper letter about half a foot long.

In the center of the letter, there was a pattern drawn with a slender feather pen. It was an ancient ring, and on the edge of the ring was engraved a circle of words that did not belong to any human civilization.

The pattern was drawn very carefully. It can be seen that this is obviously in the hands of a professional painter. In order to accurately show what this ring is, the careful painter even changed three different thicknesses of brushstrokes, and even the fine cracks on the ring and the stone texture were accurately restored.

Below the pattern, there is only one line of text.

[I know you have arranged the army, you can do it yourself. ]

"This is"

"Master Nibru, your guess is right.

This thing is the portal key to Asgard"

After Ivar said this, the three people present looked at the letter in the center of the round table and fell into a long silence.

It is not difficult to imitate a "copper ring door key" to enter Asgard, but Master Nibru, as a secret stake planted by Ivar next to Duke Bernard, he once touched the copper ring of the portal with his own hands.

He knew that those few engravings and messy scratches could not be faked at all.

This thing is indeed authentic.

What's more, the intelligence dealers of the "Zoroastrianism" are very professional. Since it has been "certified" by the painter, this letter must have been "freshly baked" two days ago. There is no possibility that Loki drew it in advance and deceived them.

The members of the Fire Transmission Gang, who make a living by selling intelligence, will not do anything that will damage their reputation.

The authenticity of intelligence is the foundation of their existence.

Ivar has indeed prepared his troops. He has already purchased intelligence from the "Zoroastrianism" and learned that Loki has come to the English land.

At this time, he was trapped in the Seawatch Fortress.

This opportunity is a "blessing from heaven" for the Viking King. In recent days, he has summoned his vassals and gathered 200 longships to prepare to sail to the river valley.

This move is to empty Loki's hometown and "save" his sister who was imprisoned by Loki.

Second, this can also calm the anger of the English to a certain extent.

As long as they no longer send troops to attack the Scandinavian Peninsula, Ivar firmly believes that he can continue to maintain the balance of the situation with the mediation of the "Illuminati".

However, he never expected that Loki would be so wild as to dare to carry the key to the Asgard portal with him!

For hundreds of years, there has been only one portal in the "Holy Mountain" that can lead to Asgard. In late autumn last year, when the war in the Holy Mountain ended, Ivar found that the portal belonged to Loki. He wanted to send a large army to attack the river valley immediately.

However, winter has arrived at this time, and a large area of ​​snow has frozen the sea surface, and it is impossible for an army to pass through the Tianduan Mountains in winter. Forcing through the Tianduan Mountains will only cause a large number of soldiers to die on the way.

So he had to give up.

Now, a difficult choice is in front of him.

Should he attack the river valley according to the original plan or turn around and sail the fleet to the Sea Fortress to save Loki from the siege of the English?

"My king, no!" Wesker, the leader of the Sabertooth mercenaries, said in a deep voice, "Last autumn, the longships we sent out were completely destroyed by the English on the sea. Although our shipyards have also begun to build ramming ships for large-scale naval battles, with the current productivity of the Vikings, it will take at least 10 years to become a force to be reckoned with!"

"If we rely solely on longships and encounter the English navy without the escort of ramming ships, it will only bring a massacre!"

Before Ivar had time to speak, Master Nibru shook his head first.

"No"

"I have been circling the sea for a long time recently, and the English fleet has all withdrawn to the vicinity of the Seawatch Fortress. According to the intelligence sold by the 'Zoroastrianism' before the war, all the supplies for the three patrols of the supply fleet in the North Sea were placed in the Seawatch Fortress.

Now that the fortress has been occupied by Loki, the ships have lost their supply base. They can't continue to cruise! As long as Loki survives one day, we should be safe for the time being."

Master Nibru's "Raven Path" has been practiced to Sequence 4, "Storm Crow". At this level, in addition to daily divination and stargazing, he can also transform himself into a flying raven through spells and fly in the sky.

It was with this ability that he retreated first when Loki led his army to capture Storm's End and flew to the Conqueror's Fortress on the other side of Mount Skybreak.

"What do you think?"

Ivar turned to look at the mysterious man next to him. On weekdays, this man is invisible and rarely appears in public places. Even if he appears in front of others, he will always be dressed in a black loose black robe, and his entire face will be covered by a black cloth, leaving only two slender eyes.

All the rest of the O'Sullivan family's staff know about him is that his nickname is "Black Shark".

Beyond that, nothing is known.

The Viking King turned to look at his chief of staff. Master Nibru and Wesker were both silent. After a long time, a harsh voice sounded like sand rubbing against iron filings. After a long silence, Black Shark finally spoke.

"My king, maybe my opinion may be a bit exaggerated in the eyes of others, but I still want to say that this Duke Loki is the strongest opponent you have ever encountered since you ascended the throne!"

"Before setting off for the war, this kid had already calculated everything! Dragging us into the war was a plan he had made before setting off. And the most uncomfortable thing about this plan is that we can only accept it, and there is no other way. !”

"Because the portal into Asgard is a treasure that the Vikings cannot throw away!"

Black Shark's voice has a natural metallic texture, and the hoarse voice that sounds like iron filings can make people feel inexplicably irritated. The accent in his Viking language is also completely different from the seven provinces.

The elderly master Runibulu didn't know exactly where this person came from, how many years he had lived, or what kind of gods he believed in.

But he knew that when Black Shark was talking, it was best for others to shut up and not interrupt him.

"People from the Eastern Land often say, 'Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be invincible in a hundred battles.' This means that we must understand our opponent in order to predict his actions."

"Loki is a speculator who knows how to seize opportunities in muddy waters and reap benefits!

Ever since the conflict between him and Duke Bernard two years ago, he knew that he would bring Blood Pigeon Town and Mist Duck Town in, create a four-party melee, and detonate everyone's conflicts to gain a chance of survival!

In last year's Slavic and English joint invasion, this guy took this tactic to its extreme.

He used the Tang people he provoked in the Conqueror's Fortress to kill them together with the English people who logged in at Hanshui Village!

Later, he even drove Bakanbusi to attack the Holy Mountain, and when both sides were hurt, he opened the portal and released all the Vikings hidden in that mysterious city!

This is a poisonous snake that is very good at taking advantage of conflicts between enemies to create opportunities! What can be expected is that if we are involved in this war, we will inevitably be used by him at some point.

But everyone

IMHO! We have no choice but to be used by him! "
