Cold, it was so damn cold. The cold wind blowing on his face was like a knife cutting his flesh, causing him to feel pain.
The vast expanse of white snow extended all the way from the foot to the edge of the horizon. Occasionally, there were some black things, which were towering black crystals. This was a special product of Hpakant, a special resource that the Hpakant people relied on for a living.
In a way that was easier to understand for people on earth, black crystals were a bit like coal mines. They could be burned to obtain heat and used to provide energy.
However, unlike the coal used on earth, black crystals could not be ignited by fire. There was a special material in its core that made the stone very stable, but at the same time, it could not be burned.
The Hpakant people were a group of intelligent human-like beings. Seventy percent of their physical features were similar to that of humans. However, their skin was green and they had double pupils.
The Hpakant people were different from the people on earth. They were a group of people who had mastered magic civilization. In the sea of magic knowledge, the Hpakant people learned to use magic to change the core of the black crystal, destroy its stability, and use it as fuel.
The value of black crystals was very high, but before they were discovered by the Hpakant people, they were just useless stones. However, when the Hpakant people discovered their use, Hpakant, which was originally only half the size of the earth, immediately became a place that many big shots in the universe paid attention to.
Compared with the barren, desert-like solar system, the Centaur galaxy where Hpakant was located was obviously much richer.
Black crystals were wealth, but they were also a disaster. Just like this long-lasting snow, the cold had lasted for thirty years. The temperature on Hpakant was so low that the rivers and lakes of the entire planet were frozen. Even the vast ocean had become a flat ice field.
The temperature of the whole world was maintained at minus eighty degrees all year round, and all the wild creatures on Hpakant had disappeared.
Even the Hpakant people could only hide in the city and rely on black crystals to heat the entire city to ensure the continuation of civilization. As for the reason for the continuation of this cold, it was very simple. Taibnout (Note 1) had his eyes on the planet's black crystals. He wanted the Hpakant people to worship him.
Taibnout was the god of Taigu Taiqiu (Note 2). His priesthood was in charge of the weather, such as rain and snow.
The people of Hpakant were a group of people without faith. They did not believe in any gods. The races that mastered magic were sometimes arrogant. They shouted, "Even the so-called gods are just a group of powerful arcanists." Maybe this sentence is right, but please don't say it out loud. A race that did not understand humility would not be able to survive in this world.
Because ignorance is not a sin, arrogance is.
This enraged Tebnut, and he sent down endless cold as punishment. He no longer wanted to be worshipped by the Hpakant people, because after this group of people died, the whole planet would be his!
The proud people of Hpakant did not have a strong person like Ancient One or Merlin. No one had the strength to talk to the gods face to face. There was no organization like the Holy Shield Brotherhood to ensure their survival in this world. Similarly, there was no profession like the [Guardian] to open up a path of retreat for them in more dimensions.
Because of the emphasis on individual strength, they were just like in some stories where strength was paramount and individual strength was superior to everything else. But sadly, no matter how much they killed each other, it was just internal strife. The vastness of this world was far beyond the imagination of the people of Hpakant.
The thousand-story tower erected by the magic civilization had fallen. The so-called God of Dharma, Dharma Saint, and Dharma Supreme of the past could not even find an enemy. Because Tebnut did not come to this planet at all. He just made it cold.
The increasingly cold climate would only take a hundred years to wipe out everything in the entire world, and all living things would die. Why waste energy fighting a group of barbarians? Tebnut was not in the mood to fight with the people of Hpakant. A hundred years, two hundred years, he could afford to wait.
… …
Asgard's Sun Boat fleet was mighty. More than a hundred large Sun Boat battleships and nearly 30,000 Asgard soldiers were ready to go.
Thor stood at the bow of the Sun Boat and looked at the snow-covered planet in front of him.
"How ignorant do these Hpakant people have to be to challenge the majesty of a god? And this race, this civilization, doesn't even have any backup. "Thor's eyes showed disdain, and his tone was even more sarcastic.
Heve, who was next to Thor, said noncommittally, "Because they think they are strong?"
"Pfft." Thor laughed disdainfully. He raised the tomahawk in his hand, pointed to the snow-covered planet, and said, "Hurry up, let our fleet and soldiers land as soon as possible! Everyone, get ready for battle! "
"Battle?" Heve asked, a little puzzled. "Wait, Thor. Shouldn't we send this batch of precious cloud stones collected from the Rodell Star Sector back to the Immortal Palace? "
Thor smiled. "Cloud stones are nothing. These black crystals are the best birthday present for my royal father. "
"But Tebnut has announced that this place belongs to him!" Heve hurriedly said to Thor.
"Precisely because of this, Tebnut is just a lackey of Primordial Taiqiu. A god of weather dares to be so arrogant. How many years has it been since Primordial Taiqiu has given Asgard an offering? "Thor's tone was cold.
Heve was shocked. "Wait, Thor, you aren't trying to start a war with Primordial Taiqiu, are you?"
"Start a war? Hahahahaha! "Thor could not stop laughing as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
"Primordial Taiqiu is qualified to talk about war? They don't even have a god of war! What right do a bunch of gods with wine and flowers, singing and dancing have to challenge the majesty of Asgard! When my ancestors were sailing on the ocean in the Dark Age, and when my father was fighting the fierce beasts in the Endless Ocean, these guys were just living a befuddled life. But they dared not to see Asgard for two hundred years! "Thor waved his ax.
"Do they think they are Olympus, Spiritual Mountain, Tao Court, or even Heaven? A bunch of arrogant guys who have forgotten who gave them protection. It's time to teach them a lesson. " With a wave of Thor's hand, all the Sun Boats began to accelerate, and all the Asgard warriors began to arm themselves.
Heve frowned and asked, "Are we going to fight Tabnout in this place? There should still be some natives on this planet. "
Thor waved his hand nonchalantly. "It's just a bunch of egomaniacs with no faith. For these creatures, they are no different from pigs and cows for food in my eyes. No, at least I will be in awe of every bite of food because of their great effect on other lives. This group of arrogant but useless guys, self-righteous, think they are strong, but have no respect. So what if I kill them all? "
"All Asgard warriors, get ready to collect all the black crystals. Take them all away, leave none behind. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed! We need to let the faithless people in the universe understand not to challenge the majesty of the gods. "
The people of Hpakant ushered in their own doomsday. It was a battle that lasted the equivalent of seven days on Earth. Thunder flashed all over the planet, and Tabnout rushed over and was defeated. All the black crystals were taken away by Thor. Hpakant was devastated and no longer suitable for habitation.
Thor stepped on Tabnout's head and said condescendingly, "Tabnout, tell Ra (Note 3) that it's time to pay tribute. It was time to pay tribute. Otherwise, Primordial Taiqiu's future days would not be good. Tell him that these are the words of the God of Thunder, Thor! "
Thor said this and walked away with his head held high. Only Tabnout was left powerlessly in place.
The entire Hpakant was completely destroyed. This planet, which was only half the size of Earth, no longer had any black crystals. In the end, Tabnout did not lift the curse of winter on the planet. In the long winter, the last person from Hpakant, who was also the strongest person on Hpakant, was frozen to death in a cave by the God of Magic, Ibbutel.
A grudge between the gods caused the complete extinction of a race.
It was just like the saying: the grace of God is like the sea, and the power of God is like a prison!
PS: Note 1: Tabnout is the legendary god of weather.
Note 2: Taigu Taiqiu, the divine kingdom of Egypt. As mentioned before, Luo Ji had a black cat from Taigu Taiqiu, which was carefully cultivated by the cat goddess Bastet.
