Chapter 576 The Northern Gods of the Germanic Region
In cold areas at high latitudes, humans either worship the God of Winter as a powerful god because they are afraid of severe cold, or they worship the sun and pray for more light and heat from the sun.

Gerd, the goddess of the sun, is apparently the sun goddess of the northern part of the Germanic region.

She and another sun goddess, Suna, may be the same goddess, or they may be sister gods derived from the same goddess, and they were divided into two because they were worshiped by different tribes.

In Norse mythology, Gerd is a very beautiful goddess.

The mighty god of war, Frey, fell in love with her at first sight. In order to get her, he would not hesitate to give up his sword and horse—the life of a warrior to others.

Gerd had no other deeds except to captivate Frey with his beauty.

From this we can see Gerd's status in Norse mythology.

Reflected in reality, it can be seen that Gerd and the tribe that worships her are weak.

Unlike the weak Gerd, the Sun Goddess Suna is a powerful deity in northern Germany.

Her other identity is Surtur, the flame giant who died with Frey in the battle of Ragnarok.

The Sun Goddess Suna and the Sun Goddess Ged are distinctly different from the Aryan sun gods.

The sun god of the Aryans usually rode a horse or drove a chariot across the sky, releasing infinite light and heat with his own power.

In Norse mythology, the heat of Suna, the sun goddess, does not originate from herself.

The sun goddess Suna is also the sun god who drives a chariot to gallop the sky.

Her sun god car is loaded with the largest fire block taken from Muspelheim, the land of fire. Because the heat of the fire is too fierce, a giant shield Swarin is installed in front of the car to avoid burning the car.

In the concept of the Nordic region, the sun goddess itself does not have infinite heat, so Gerd will become the sun goddess who illuminates the sky and the ocean.

Sun Goddess Suna is a sun god with infinite light and heat, because she is not only the same sun goddess as Gerd, but also the god of fire that symbolizes volcanoes.

The Eifel Mountains in the central part of the Germanic region are known to have 350 volcanic eruption centers, hence the name [West Eifel Volcanic Region], which is famous for its crater lakes and volcanic activities.

The Germans in ancient times witnessed volcanic eruptions and believed that the heat of the sun came from volcanoes.

The Sun Goddess Suna, who lives in the volcano [Fire Country Muspelheim], rides the volcanic magma into the sky every day.

In Norse mythology, Frey's wife is the sun goddess Gerd.

In the battle of the twilight of the gods, the flame giant Surtur who died with Frey was another identity of the sun goddess Su Na.

It seems that Frey has a deep relationship with the sun goddess.

Perhaps before the arrival of the Aryans [Aryan Gods], Frey's tribe and the Sun Goddess' tribe had a deep hatred for the territory.

After the arrival of the Aryans [Aryan Gods], Frey turned to the Aryan Gods just to defeat the Sun Goddess.

Nasus, the goddess of the sea, Skadi, the goddess of winter and hunting, Suna, the goddess of the sun, Freya, the goddess of love and war, Frey, the god of harvest, and Gerd, the goddess of sunlight——

These are the six gods of northern Germany.

Jutland is a peninsula in the northern part of Germany, between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea.

Fenrir took Roy to the junction of the Jutland Peninsula and the northern part of the Germanic region, and immediately turned into a giant wolf with a height of [-] meters, raised his head and let out a wolf howl.

Seeing that Fenrir had turned into a giant wolf again, Roy asked suspiciously.

"Fenrir, why did you change back into an arctic wolf?"

"I am the strongest local god in the Germanic region."

Fenrir explained in a serious tone.

"If other gods see my goddess figure, other gods will definitely despise me."

I have to admit that Fenrir's goddess figure is really cute and cute, making it impossible to treat her as the most powerful local god in the Germanic region.

At this moment, hearing Fenrir's call, the gods in the northern part of the Germanic region descended almost simultaneously.

Nasus, the goddess of the sea with blue hair and blue eyes, Skadi, the goddess of winter and hunting with long snow-white hair and a tall figure, Freya, the goddess of war who is as strong as a wild boar, and Su, the goddess of the sun with long red hair and flaming eyes. Na, the God of Harvest Frey with long hair like golden grains, and Gerd, the Goddess of Sunlight with long platinum hair and a delicate figure.

"Fenrir!"

After the six gods came, Nasus questioned Fenrir on behalf of the six gods like a leader.

"What is the important thing for you to summon us? What is the identity of the foreign god beside you?"

"Introduce yourself!"

Roy said proactively.

"I am Loy, the emperor of the Athenian Empire, and also the hero god and the sun god of the Athenian Empire. I came to the Germanic region to incorporate the Germanic region into the territory of the Athens Empire. Now the goddess of the earth, Jode, and the goddess of nature in the southern part of the Germanic region are Germany, the forest goddess Grid and Fenrir have all surrendered to me."

Fenrir nodded and said.

"The master is right! Not only will the master not harm our interests, but he will also destroy the Aryan gods, so that we have more territory and authority, so we have surrendered to the master. Now I come to you to I invite you to join the Athenian Empire, and join us in launching the Ragnarok War against the Aryan gods, so that the Aryan gods will usher in the twilight and end."

After listening to what Roy and Fenrir said, the six gods all frowned with displeasure.

Harvest God Frey said with a sneer.

"Because the Aryan gods always wanted to conquer the south of the Germanic region, the southern gods had to put down their differences and unite. But in the northern region, we have a huge contradiction with each other. The goddess Nasus and the goddess Skadi Wanting to compete for the identity of the leader, the tribes worshiping Nasus and the tribes worshiping Skadi are also vying for the hegemony of the northern region. I am also competing for the territory with Sun Goddess Suna and Sun Goddess Gerd. Only Freya and Ya The Aryan gods have a huge hatred. I don't think you can resolve the conflict between us and let us join the same camp against the Aryan gods. After all, for us, the Aryan gods are far less threatening than those around us Neighbor."

The gods in the northern part of the Germanic region did not know that after the Aryan gods conquered the southern part of the Germanic region, they would regard the northern part of the Germanic region as the target of conquest.

Even if they knew, they might not be willing to shake hands with their greatest enemy and become an ally for future threats.

Roy looked at the six gods with a playful smile and said.

"Maybe you will think that I am boasting, but I still want to tell you that I alone can defeat the Aryan gods. I invite you now only because Fenrir and the others regard you as the same family. Now I invite you Join my camp and fight against the Aryan gods with me, who of you would like to join?"

"I'll join!"

Freya said without hesitation.

"The Aryan gods are pressing on me every step of the way. I am planning to declare war on them. You came at the right time."

"Since you want to join our alliance against the Aryan gods, then bow your head to my leader to show your surrender!"

Hearing Roy's request, Freya couldn't help but froze.

"I dealt with the Aryan gods in order not to surrender to Odin. You asked me to surrender to you, so what is the difference between you and Odin?"
