Chapter 1331: Sowing the Future
Asgard.
The Eternal Garden.
A figure in a gray coat stepped through the muddy garden, clear spring water flowing from his fingertips like gentle rain, sprinkling every corner of the garden.
A breeze gradually rose, stirring the disheveled golden hair. Bragi stood on the barren soil, turning to look into the distance.
Beneath the low-hanging clouds, faint rumbles echoed from afar. The rotting wooden cabin creaked with each tremor of the earth, as if it might collapse at any moment.
Bragi withdrew his gaze, glancing at the wooden cabin before him, and sighed:
"This cabin needs renovation too..."
"The outside world is in such chaos, yet you're still here watering flowers? Aren't you curious?" On the cyan stone path, the "Past" goddess Urðr asked with puzzlement.
"Curious about what?"
"The situation in Asgard."
"I'm not interested." Bragi shook his head, continuing to tap the air with his fingertips. Each gesture sent spring water transforming into rain, nourishing every corner of the soil.
He wore a simple gray coat, standing there like a quiet conductor, sowing seeds of life across the desolate earth.
"Whether it's Loki or Thor, it has nothing to do with me.
I only hope that when my wife returns, this garden will be restored to its former state... If she sees that the garden we built together has turned into this mess, she would be heartbroken."
Warmth filled Bragi's eyes.
The "Past" goddess Urðr watched Bragi attentively watering the flowers, her expression complex.
"Bragi brother! Can I plant flowers with you?" Skuld, the "Future" goddess with two colorful braids, appeared from somewhere carrying a packet of pink sandstone seeds, ran up to Bragi, tilted her head, and asked.
Bragi smiled gently, reaching out to pat her head. "Of course you can."
Skuld cheered, clutching the pink sandstone seeds, excitedly running across the land. Her small hands grabbed handfuls of seeds, occasionally tossing them toward the sky, full of vitality.
Bragi guided the water flow, irrigating the soil where Skuld had scattered the seeds. A faint rainbow floated above the wooden cabin.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh——
Tiny sounds emerged from the soil, and sprout after sprout broke through the surface of the earth. Like hope breaking through the earth, they grew continuously amidst the ruins...
Bragi froze, then widened his eyes in disbelief.
"They're already sprouting? How is this possible..."
"This child governs the law of accelerated time." The "Past" goddess Urðr gazed at Skuld running and laughing, a fond smile appearing on her lips. "With her here, your garden will probably bloom completely in less than an hour."
"That's wonderful, that's wonderful!!" Bragi clapped repeatedly, his joy evident.
As if thinking of something, he turned to Urðr again. "By the way, where's Verdandi?"
"She's gazing toward Asgard." Urðr said calmly. "It seems Great Xia deities have invaded... The three goddess sisters of the Norns never meddle in Asgard's civil wars, but if there are foreign enemies, she won't sit by and do nothing."
Great Xia deities?
At these words, an image popped into Bragi's mind—the figure of Sun Wukong.
He wondered if that monkey had come here?
"What about you? Why aren't you going?"
"I need to stay here... to protect you." Urðr said calmly.
所谓的"保护"，其实是贴身监视。诗寇蒂预言了布伦希尔德会成为诸神黄昏的源头，即便她们已经采取行动，试图延缓诸神黄昏的到来，可即便如此，依然不是万全。所以，乌尔德便主动留下来看着布伦希尔德，防止他做出一些计划外的举动……至于诗寇蒂，她本身就是个没什么战斗力的孩子，自然要跟在乌尔德身边。
布伦希尔德点了点头，没有再多说什么，只是紧跟在诗寇蒂的身后，不断的浇灌着土壤内的种子。
在诗寇蒂银铃般的笑声中，这片死寂的大地，逐渐焕发新生。
芬里尔猛地撕咬虚无，瞬间将迎面一位矮人神明的肩膀，扯成漫天血雾。轰鸣的神力相互碰撞，将周围的神殿震得接连坍塌，尘埃混杂着鲜红的血雾飞扬而起，一个披着染血黑风衣的少女站在魔狼背脊，疾驰而出。她的身后，数道身影接连紧随，这支十余人组成的队伍，像是一支利剑，直指阿斯加德的正中央！即便不断有神明前来阻挡，但散落在阿斯加德的众神主力早已在彩虹桥一战中，被打的溃不成军，这些从其他地方赶来的神明无人带领，就像是一盘散沙，面对这一帮穷凶极恶的重犯，根本无法造成太大的威胁。
"胖胖，你的伤没事吧？"
林七夜驾着筋斗云，看向身后捂着腰呻吟的百里胖胖，担忧问道。
"没事，只是被那柄枪擦到一点。"不等百里胖胖回答，正在替他包扎的安卿鱼便开口道，"我新掌握了几个治疗类的禁墟，能够治好他……就是可能会有点疼。"
话音刚落，百里胖胖便发出一声惨叫。
"嘿嘿嘿嘿嘿……"曹渊的傻笑适时响起。
林七夜正欲再说些什么，余光瞥到上空，瞳孔骤然收缩！
他想也不想，一脚踹开了正在傻笑的曹渊，同时散开脚下的筋斗云，整个人在半空中拧过半圈，以一种诡异的姿势向侧后方退去！
几乎在林七夜动的同时，安卿鱼的眼眸中也闪过一抹灰意，他一把抓住百里胖胖的肩膀，身形如惊鸿般向侧面飞掠出数百米，只留下道道残影停滞在空中，被一柄从天而降的棕色枪影撕的粉碎！
棕色枪影自林七夜身形十米外掠过，卷起的神芒瞬间将他的后背划出一道深刻见骨的伤口，若
是他的速度再慢上些许，只怕整个人都已经被撕成碎片。
千钧一发之间，林七夜也看到了这柄棕色枪影的全貌。
这是一柄用树枝雕刻成的长枪。
树枝长枪雷霆般掠过天空，将下方的神殿轰成一片废墟，一个披着青色神袍的身影凭空显现在大地之上，缓缓拔出了那柄树枝长枪。
他的双眸微眯，凝视着天空中的林七夜，似乎有些诧异。
林七夜认得这个男人，就在今早，他们还一起行动……
森林之神，维拉。
