Paladins of Asgard

Chapter 1 - 【Asgard】



On April 24, 2019, at four in the morning, one hour after the premiere of Avengers 4.

Luo Wei sat in front of the computer desk with headphones on, looking at the screen in a daze, clicking the mouse from time to time.

The picture on the computer screen is the auction house, the gold-encrusted rose hotel, and the fountain in Stormwind City, the main human city of “World of Warcraft”. A group of blue dragons are flying in the sky.

Surrounding him was what made him dazed—level 120 players walking around, especially a local tyrant who rode a majestic caravan Thunder Dragon.

After a few moments, Luo Wei sighed, but he felt that World of Warcraft had changed so much over the years.

Luo Wei used to be a heavy WOW player, but he stopped playing a few years ago due to work reasons.

Memories may resonate.

After watching “Avengers 4” and recalling the eleven-year Marvel series of movies, he also thought of this epic classic game that had also accompanied him for many years on a whim, and picked it up again.

However, after a few years of absence, Rowe found that he almost didn’t recognize World of Warcraft. The level 85 human paladins walked the streets of Stormwind City, observing the level 120 players who walked almost everywhere like a bumpkin.

Varian Wrynn is dead, Tirion Fordring is dead…

Avengers Tony Stark, Natasha Romanoff, also died.

Half an hour.

Alas, let’s go to bed with a dungeon, I have to study spoiler tricks tomorrow… Luo Wei yawned and joined the dungeon queue at the same time.

Luo Wei had a dream. He dreamed that he was chasing a golden light. The light was as pure and bright as the sun, which could stimulate the phototaxis instinct of all life.

The things in the dream had no logic. He chased the light that flew like a shooting star for no reason. It’s just that no matter how he chased, the distance between him and the light never shortened, and of course it didn’t lengthen.

Suddenly, Luo Wei stepped in the air and fell into the endless abyss.

He was instantly terrified, struggling feebly in the pitch-black space with no up, down, left, and right.

In the process of struggling, unknowingly, the distance between the golden light and him shortened, and in the end it was close at hand.

Luo Wei could see clearly, this is a book, a book made of golden light like red gold. The size is similar to that of common books, but it is slightly thicker. There are some simple and mysterious lines on the cover, and there is a small golden ring at each end of the spine. .

He reached out and grabbed the book.

Immediately, a golden light suddenly bloomed, engulfing everything like a storm…

“what!”

Luo Wei exclaimed, and at the same time, he jumped up like a fish that suddenly regained consciousness in a hot pot.

“Plop!”

He slammed his mouth and gnawed on the floor, with bitterness in his nostrils.

Luo Wei rubbed his nose and looked around, his vision and thinking gradually became clearer, but a confused look flooded his face.

“here it is…”

The surrounding scene is clearly a masonry house with a strong classical atmosphere. It is a bit crude, but with rich details, it looks like the shooting scene of a large-scale European costume drama.

He looked down at himself, and found that his clothes were also in the style of European costume dramas, a light gray-white linen shirt, brown trousers, and boots.

The bright and lazy light shone in from the window, as if it was the time after a nap.

I… am I not playing a copy?

Rowe thought in confusion.

Is this a dream?

It shouldn’t, because he didn’t have the drowsy feeling in the dream, and he still clearly remembered the dream about the golden book just now, so it’s not a dream in a dream.

Wait, book… At this moment, Luo Wei seemed to realize something suddenly. He turned his head and saw that a heavy golden book was lying quietly on the ground.

This book looks exactly like the dream, just without the dazzling light.

This!

Looking at this heavy golden book, Luo Wei’s eyes widened, and he realized that something bizarre might have happened.

He hesitated and took the book.

A wonderful sense of connection arises spontaneously, as if the book is connected to his blood.

Luo Wei touched the spine and cover of the book, and it felt very ordinary or even a little rough, as if it was just an ordinary book.

When the cover was opened, the first page flickered with golden light, and a few lines slowly emerged:

Holy Covenant of Kings

Owner: Rowe

A holy deed of kings?

Luo Wei looked bewildered, and before he could turn to the second page, a footstep sounded from outside the house.

Soon, a young woman with long brown hair ran in. She was also dressed in a European costume drama. She was pretty, but she had freckles on her face.

The brown-haired woman said with some surprise, “Luo Wei!”

“Uh…%#@¥…” Luo Wei wanted to speak, but ended up babbling nonsense, as if his mouth was cramping.

He suddenly felt a strong headache. Whenever he wanted to open his mouth, the memories of the two languages ​​competed, causing him to lose the ability to speak.

One of these two languages ​​is Chinese, and the other is… Asgard, Rune?

Asgard!

Asgard, Asgard!

The fragmented information surged like a tide, and Luo Wei froze for a long time as if he was petrified, and his eyes were empty for a while.

“Luo Wei, what’s wrong with you? Luo Wei!” the brown-haired woman shouted anxiously.

Luo Wei finally recovered at this time, but his eyes were still a little confused. After watching her for a long time, he hesitated and said, “Cousin El?”

“Thank God, you’re fine.” El heaved a sigh of relief, then said reproachfully, “Don’t do this kind of thing again, you know? That bet is just…”

Rowe didn’t hear what he said later, his brows were furrowed, but he fell into some kind of complicated thinking and shocked emotions.

He figured out a few things: he actually traveled – from China in the 21st century to Thor’s hometown, one of the nine realms, Asgard, the Asgard.

But it’s a little early, Thor hasn’t been born yet.

He is still called Luo Wei, although the two Luo Wei are only similar in pronunciation, and the words are not the same.

This is a coincidence, and it may also be a kind of fate.

Before that, Luo Wei, who lived in China, always felt that this frequent coincidence was nothing more than that the author was too lazy to be named, but now he couldn’t help thinking, maybe this is actually some kind of rule of time travel?

The owner of the original body no longer exists. Fortunately, he has left some memories. Although it is trivial and incomplete, after absorbing these memories, Luo Wei does not have a strong sense of strangeness to this mythical world.

“Hey, is the little **** finally awake?” A scolding voice came, and then a middle-aged and elderly man with a fat body and a half-bald head walked into the room, holding a bottle of mead in his hand, “Since you are awake, Don’t lie down, I mean, you haven’t done any work these days!”

“Father, Rowe has just woken up.” El said complaining.

“What’s wrong with just waking up, I think his spirit is better than mine!”

This bald fat uncle is called Peter, Rowe’s uncle. Because his parents died early, Luo Wei lived in his uncle’s house. Fortunately, although his uncle treated him poorly, El treated him like his younger brother and cared very much.

Luo Wei is thin and small, almost the thinnest among his peers, but he is very active. At the age of 24, he still likes to climb walls and trees. Of course, for the Asgardians, that is, the Aesir, the age of twenty-four is only a teenager, and it is quite normal.

The average lifespan of the Asa Protoss is about five thousand years. Although the lifespan is long, the growth rate is not much different from that of many intelligent beings. Generally, they are adults at the age of thirty. It was mentioned in the movie “Thor 3” that Thor was stabbed by Loki when he was eight years old, which also shows that the growth of Asgardians in childhood was not slow.

After the Asa Gods reach adulthood at the age of 30, they will be in their prime for nearly 4,000 years. During this long period, the power of the Asa Gods will be fully manifested.

Most creatures in the universe would not dare to conflict with an adult Asgardian. In a way, the Asgardians are indeed gods.

A few days ago, Rowe, an expert climber in the town of Asgardelphia, finally stumbled and fell while climbing a tree. He was in a coma for several days, and didn’t wake up until today.

“The Frost Giant is restless again. One hundred healing stones, make them as soon as possible!” Uncle Peter left with a word and left with the wine.

The Peter family lives in the town of Lyfia at the foot of the Lyfia Mountains in Asgard. It is called a town, but it is actually a village. Asgard is very small.

Liphia Mountain is rich in herbs, so Peter opened a herbal shop. The healing stone is one of the most important commodities in the store, and it is also a must-have item on the battlefield.

“Rovey, how are you feeling now?” El asked.

Luo Wei felt that his mind was still a little confused, and said, “I’m fine… I just want to be quiet for a while.”

El was about to say something when he suddenly noticed the “Saint of Kings” that Rowe had placed on his lap, so he took a look and said, “Hey, what is this?”

“This…” Rowe was subconsciously startled.

Unexpectedly, El turned over two pages and returned it to him: “Your new diary? The shape is very unique.”

Luo Wei couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment.

When El opened the “Holy Deed of Kings” just now, he clearly saw the pictures and texts, but El’s expression and tone were as if she saw blank paper without words.

Could it be that only you can see the text above? he thought to himself.

After a while, El told Rowe to take a good rest and then left.

Luo Wei hurriedly closed the door and opened the “Sacrament of Kings” again.

The first page is naturally the same two lines of characters, but he was shocked to find that these two lines of characters are neither in Chinese, nor in Runic, or both, their characters are vague and ethereal. It’s weird, but he can easily read it, as if it was a language tailored for him.

There is also a line at the top of the second page: Devotion Store.

“Religion” looked a little baffling to Rowe, but he naturally understood “Store”, and the pictures and texts on this page were very similar to the store interface of some games he had seen in his previous life.

To be precise…it’s the shop interface of World of Warcraft.

Could it be that this thing has something to do with monsters? Having said that, the book that the paladin was holding was called Sanchi. Rowe couldn’t help thinking.

There are two items in the store, both marked with numbers, presumably the price.

One of them is a golden question mark pattern: [Gift of Fate], 0.99 (limited time offer, original price 9.98).

The words in brackets made Luo Wei speechless for a while.

The other is a golden shield pattern: [Gift from the Guardian], 0.00 (limited time offer, original price 0.00).

In the corner of the store is written [Religion: 0.00].

Piety?

Do you mean currency? so naughty?

Luo Wei frowned, hesitated for a while, then tried to use his fingers to lightly touch the free [Guardian’s Gift].
