Chapter 1351 The Mystery of the Feast (I)
The invitation to the wedding of the God King of Asgard is very special. Its letter paper is made of the fiber of the branches of the World Tree, the envelope is made of cloth spun by the Goddess of Asgard, and even the wax seal used for the envelope is melted with the precious mithril of the dwarves and blessed by the God King of Asgard.
There is a circle of hard and sharp metal edges on the four corners of the square letter, and the golden wax in the center is a pattern of the branches of the World Tree holding up the nine kingdoms.
The dark blue envelope represents the origin of Asgard's marine civilization. The divine power flashing on the letter carries the sparks of thunder, indicating the great thunder power of the God King.
The slender and extraordinarily slender fingers took away the surface of the invitation, and the other hand took the invitation. The cuffs made of dark brown linen and white straps indicate that the owner of this hand is a resident of Asgard.
The waiter in the traditional costume of the Nordic Vikings nodded to the visitor and said with a smile: "Asgard welcomes you, Queen of the Shi'ar Empire, may the light shine on you and your country forever."
The Queen of the Shi'ar Empire wore a gorgeous golden robe, the silk thread shone with colorful light, and the gorgeous feathers draped behind her head added a bit of color. When she heard the waiter's last words, she raised her eyebrows slightly.
The Queen thought, if she remembered correctly, the prayer of Asgard was "The Father of the Gods will always bless you" or "The Father of the Gods will guide you."
It seems that the power transfer in Asgard was really completed smoothly. The God King Thor not only got the throne of Asgard, but also replaced the God of Light with the throne of the God of Light.
The Queen of the Shi'ar Empire followed the waiter who led the way in, and sighed a little. The political system of the Shi'ar Empire and Asgard is very similar. Both are classical kingdoms, and both are led by the royal family with real power.
What is enviable and admirable is that the new God King not only perfectly took over the power and priesthood from his father, but also did not have a dispute over the throne with a younger brother. He even let Loki be crowned king, and he was a prince with real power.
This is enough to show how high Thor's rule over Asgard is. He is not worried about the right to share profits, and the people are not confused about the two kings in one country. The nobles are not in trouble, and the civilians are not in turmoil. This is almost a perfect answer to the change of royal power in the classical kingdom.
The queen of the Shi'ar Empire had met Thor once, but at that time, she did not have a high opinion of Thor, or to be frank, she had a very bad impression of him.
At that time, Thor was like most of the soldiers in Asgard, rough and reckless, shouting, with nothing in his mind except fighting, and he rushed wherever he went, which was far worse than his father's state of control.
At that time, the queen was still secretly glad in her heart that with such an heir, Odin might not live a happy old age. Most of the leaders of interstellar civilizations at that time thought so.
But hundreds of years have passed, and even the Shi'ar Empire, which has always had a stable political situation, has erupted from time to time. Other short-lived interstellar civilizations have been in chaos for several rounds. Instead, Asgard, which they least favored, landed smoothly. The queen was also a little angry and unwilling.
In the final analysis, what is Asgard?
Why do they have natural divine power? Why are things going smoothly? Why hasn't the Ragnarok come yet? Why have everyone been looking forward to their decline for so long, but they are getting stronger and stronger?
Many leaders of interstellar civilizations who can come or not will choose to attend the wedding of the God King, just because they are full of anger. They want to see what the new king Thor is capable of.
Asgard has been wandering outside the interstellar society for thousands of years, breaking the rules and destroying everywhere. Now they want to join the civilized society, but they can't let them take all the good things, right?
Entering the banquet hall, the queen took back her invitation from the waiter and went through the process of the ceremony in her mind. The welcome banquet officially began at 4:50 p.m., and most of the leaders of civilizations attending the banquet would be present at this time.
The free exchange welcome banquet ended at 6 o'clock, and then the dance began. When the music started, the guests danced with their dance partners or other guests they met at the venue. The newlyweds who had not yet held the ceremony would also be present, and the lively dance would last until midnight.
The next morning, all guests went to the Fairy Garden to watch the ceremony, where the God King and Queen would hold the wedding ceremony, and then the guests would go to the Fairy Square from the east gate of the garden.
The God King and Queen would meet and speak with the ministers and generals on the balcony on the third floor of the Fairy Palace, and then walk out of the main gate, walk hand in hand across the Fairy Bridge, and wave to all the people and guests of Asgard.
This is the process of most interstellar civilization leaders when they get married. First, they entertain the guests who come to participate in the wedding, then greet the ministers and nobles, and then march among the people.
Of course, this is a simplified version of the ceremony in Asgard. When the Queen of the Shi'ar Empire married her husband, the banquet and dance for the guests took three days, and the subsequent parade toured the country. Even if it took the portal, it took five days to visit important cities and attractions.
Even if all the processes were compressed into two days, it was an unprecedented event in Asgard. Even the sunset on this day was particularly brilliant.
Looking out through the stained glass of the Asgard Hall, the Asgard Bridge, which has stood here for a thousand years, looks particularly magnificent, like the beginning and end of a legendary story.
The queen looked around and saw many familiar faces. Just as she was considering who to start the topic of today, her eyes caught a figure.
The queen of the Shi'ar Empire shrank suddenly, her heart sank to the bottom, and she almost said the name in her heart in a tone that was too heavy to be heavy: "... Hela."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The figure was wearing a black backless dress, with a thin and almost invisible lace pattern crawling along the chest and onto the shoulders, turning into black gauze to cover the smooth back lines.
The smooth silk ribbon passes through the waist, outlining the smooth waistline, and then goes down along the plump hip line. The hanging fabric suddenly tightens, and the gorgeous fishtail skirt blooms at the end, like ripples under the moonlight. water pattern.
As if sensing the sight, the woman whose skin was so pale that there was no trace of blood turned around and looked at the Queen of the Shi'ar Empire.
Even though hundreds of years had passed, the Queen still felt deep pressure when she looked into the eyes of the eldest princess who was famous all over the universe again, as if she was still the little girl who was still on the throne.
Why is Hela here? !
The queen was filled with confusion and fear. Wasn't she permanently imprisoned by Odin? Why can a prince who failed in the fight for the throne still appear at the wedding of the new king in a grand manner?
Yes, in the memory of the Queen and the vast majority of civilization leaders of this generation, Hela has been the undisputed heir to the throne of Asgard for a long time and Odin's favorite prince. Everyone thought she would be Asgard's first queen.
But the development of things is like countless historical reincarnations: rebellion, failure, imprisonment, and then never seeing the light of day.
After hearing the news of the failure of Hela's uprising in the distant Mengyu Palace, the crown prince and queen felt a little thankful despite being frightened. Fortunately, she was not as impulsive and reckless as that mad woman.
After successfully ascending the throne and calming the situation, the Queen also recalled the past.
During the glory days of Asgard, when the mighty and huge fleet passed over her fiefdom, the eldest princess of Asgard in armor stood on the top of the ship's side, with countless powerful warriors following behind her. Wherever you go, there is the glory that all the gods pursue.
The Queen of the Shi'a Empire, who was just a princess at the time, was like all the followers of the eldest princess, unable to take his eyes away from that figure for a long time. Who was not fascinated by other people's high-spiritedness and scolding Fang Qiu when they were young?
His Highness Hela, who was still the Crown Prince, was a glimpse that many people had when they were young, and a silent sigh that many people recalled in their midnight dreams many years later.
And in the blink of an eye, hundreds of years passed, and the queen never dreamed that she would see Hela here again.
She seemed to have remained the same, not looking like a prisoner who had been imprisoned for hundreds of years. When she glanced across the hall, no one was there, whether it was the Asgardians walking through the auditorium or the civilized leaders coming from afar. Dare to look at her.
The reason, the queen thought, might be because Hela had beaten them, or their father, or their grandpa, or grandpa's grandpa.
The queen sighed in her heart, recalling the scene when her father, the husband of the previous queen and the leader of the royal fleet, was overwhelmed by Hela's fleet on the border of the Shi'ar Empire. .
After finishing her memories and recovering from the shock of Hela's reappearance, the Queen couldn't help but feel a little curious, why did Hela appear here? Why would Odin let her appear here?
Thinking of this, the queen decided to make up for the regrets she had in her youth and go chat with the once-legendary eldest princess so that she could brag about it with her friends who grew up together.
So, the queen took a glass of wine from the waiter next to her, straightened her skirt, and walked towards Hela calmly.
But as soon as she was halfway there, she realized that someone had arrived first, and another male figure walked to the opposite side of Hela before her.
The Queen paused in her steps. She felt a little annoyed because of her previous hesitation, but she couldn't help but feel a little gloating. This eldest princess was not so easy to get along with.
Back then, there was no shortage of people of the opposite sex chasing Hela because of her temperament and appearance, but as a result... I can only say that if it hadn't been like this, there wouldn't have been so many fathers and grandfathers who had been beaten.
The queen looked up and down at this bold man. He was not wearing an Asgardian dress, which meant he was not a god. The queen was well-informed. When she saw the baroque style of the shirt collar exposed in the long suit, she recognized him at a glance. Human clothing.
Very good, there are few races in the universe that are physically weaker than humans. I can only pray that the life of being imprisoned will make the eldest princess' temper better, otherwise, once this ungrateful human being does something offensive and rude With this move, today’s banquet will be ruined.
The Queen thought this, and felt a sense of joy in her heart. She silently retracted her steps, gently combed the feathers on her temples with her hands, and showed her face to a prince from the Centaur Federation who came over to talk. A polite smile.
Although her attitude was still polite, what she wanted to do was interrupted halfway, which inevitably made people feel a little depressed. The queen had long since lost her interest in conversation.
But in the face of other civilized leaders who continued to show their attentiveness, the queen could not keep silent. After a few polite words, she left the banquet on the grounds that her dress had wrinkles and needed to be taken care of.
