"Morgan first appeared in "The Life of King Arthur" written by Geoffrey in the 13th century."

"Morgan in the original version was a fairy living on the island of Avalon."

"But with the development of the times, in the late Middle Ages, witchcraft became a target in Europe. People who knew witchcraft were considered evil people, even fictional characters in novels."

"From here on, in the new Arthurian legends, Morgan begins to transform into the image of a 'evil woman'. In Thomas Malory's book "Le Morte d'Arthur", Morgan becomes a symbol of evil."

Xia Mi spread his hands to the two of them and said,

"Don't look at me like that. I also listened to Senior Brother Lu's words a few days ago, so I went to find out more about it."

Lu Mingfei gave a thumbs up, expressing his high recognition of the girl's awareness.

Chu Zihang said thoughtfully: "Merlin guided Arthur to get the holy sword Excalibur from the Lake Fairy. Is the Lake Fairy Morgan himself? If so, is there any deal between Merlin and Morgan?

As a human alchemist, why did Merlin raise King Arthur, who is suspected to be the first generation, or is Merlin himself a pure-blood dragon?"

Lu Mingfei quickly shouted to stop, with a headache: "Stop, stop! Brother, you are thinking wrong, this is not what we are saying today!"

Only then did Chu Zihang remember that the theme of tonight was not Morgan and Merlin, but King Arthur, Odin and...Morgan!

"We assume that King Arthur is also a pure-blood dragon, or the first generation of it, so what is the connection between him and Odin?"

Xia Mi supported his chin with his hand, looking at the ceiling and thinking.

Chu Zihang whispered: "Junior brother just told two stories. We have discussed the first one before, and the focus next is the second one."

"I know, but this story... where should I start? Morgan?" Xia Mi wrinkled his nose and said.

"The protagonists of these two stories are King Arthur and Odin respectively, but only Morgan plays the same role in them." Chu Zihang said slowly, "In fact, King Arthur and Odin are not without similarities. King Arthur also has a [

The title of "Eternal King", and Odin holds the eternal spear Kungunir."

"But... this is too far-fetched." Chu Zihang shook his head again, "And Morgan himself doesn't have much to explore."

"If King Arthur is really the first generation, and Morgan is another king on the throne, then what about Odin? What role does he play here? The king of the gods of the Aesir clan?"

In fact, both Chu Zihang and Xia Mi know one thing very well - everything they are currently discussing is based on the extraction of information from these myths and legends.

Over the long years, there have been too many versions of these myths and legends, mixed with the fantasies of later generations, political considerations, or the need for cultural integration...

They extracted some useful information from these legends, discarded useless and contradictory information, and tried to construct new legends that they could accept and recognize.

And for some special reasons, they all ignored this point.

As long as someone doesn't explicitly object, they will continue to make it up until they have a complete story.

In a sense, they are just like King Arthur, looking for the correct answer under the guidance of "Merlin".

"I suddenly thought of something!"

Xia Mi suddenly grabbed Chu Zihang's arm and said excitedly,

"King Arthur was crowned king after defeating the Roman Empire and had more than 150 Knights of the Round Table. However, for some reason, these Knights of the Round Table left the empire one after another, either spontaneously or under King Arthur's orders.

To find a certain treasure, what are they looking for?"

There was silence in the carriage for a moment.

"Holy Grail!" Chu Zihang's eyes suddenly lit up and he said the word word by word.

"The legend of King Arthur is the product of multi-cultural integration. If the Holy Grail is the integration of later religious culture, then it must have a prototype. What is this prototype?" Xia Mi whispered.

Their eyes fell on Lu Mingfei at the same time.

It seems that at this moment, only Lu Mingfei can give them the answer.

Lu Mingfei was stunned and thought to himself, what do you think I am doing? I even asked the invigilator for answers directly during the exam, right?

"In many legends, if you can find the Holy Grail and drink the water it contains, the drinker will be rejuvenated, or resurrected from the dead and gain eternal life."

Xia Mi looked at Chu Zihang and said quietly,

"Does it sound familiar?"

Chu Zihang's pupils shrank suddenly and he breathed quickly: "Second story! Odin received a gold ring given by Morgan, and he has remained young and immortal ever since!"

Right!

They found a breaking point!

"Remember what I just said? In the original version, Morgan was a fairy living on Avalon. She was not shaped as King Arthur's sister, nor was she an 'evil woman' who tried to kill King Arthur. She just met her by chance.

The injured King Arthur lent a helping hand to him!"

Xia Mi said loudly,

"King Arthur and Morgan are not twins. King Arthur, like Odin, received a similar gift from Morgan! And he was looking for something after that!"

"It's the Holy Grail!" Chu Zihang answered quickly, his brain running wildly, and countless sparks of inspiration burst out from each one.

"He mobilized his knights to help him find the Holy Grail. So what is the Holy Grail? Power and strength? Eternal lifespan? Immortal youth, or..."

He suddenly looked at Xia Mi steadily, his pupils seemed to be burning with fire, and Xia Mi's pupils were also shining brightly.

They said three words in unison -

"Jade Record!"

They reached a consensus in the hotel in Chicago that "Jade Record" is about the secret method of how a mixed race evolves into a pure blood dragon!

By being promoted to the pure-blood dragon clan as a hybrid, you will have everything at your fingertips, whether it is power and strength, eternal lifespan, or immortal youth!

"Odin is not a pure-blood dragon! He is a pure-blood dragon who was promoted as a hybrid!"

Chu Zihang's pupils burst out with a breathtaking light, and he looked at his junior brother intently.

Is this the answer that Junior Brother wants to tell him?

If Odin is a hybrid, then he can do what Odin can do!

"What about Morgan?" Xia Mi lowered his head, put his index fingers on his temples with both hands, and expanded his thinking like a smart Ikkyu.

"Guide? Or... god?" Chu Zihang said the last word softly, his eyes extremely complicated.

Xia Mi was stunned and murmured: "God? The dragon clan has always claimed to be a god. Does this god refer to the dragon clan, or...a real god?"

"In Nordic mythology, there are three special goddesses. They are called the three goddesses of destiny." Chu Zihang took a deep breath, "In a sense, they are Odin's guides!"

"In Celtic mythology, the fairy Morgan is regarded as a trinity of goddesses." Xia Mi said softly.

They suddenly felt some kind of fear.

The soft night wind outside the window became a little cold, because they peeked into the secret of God that night!

the other side.

Lu Mingfei poked his butt and scratched it twice, turning a blind eye to the looks the two men were giving him.

He clicked his tongue in his heart, please, please hurry up and get married where you are. How about I move the Civil Affairs Bureau here for you?

If I tell you two stories at random, you can tell them almost to the truth. If I reveal some more information, won't you be digging into the history of the Dragon Clan?
