Chapter 635: Striking the West
Lu Xiao's previous wave of operations made Odin and Heimdall fly, and he must have offended the cautious king of the gods to death.
Lu Xiao didn't care much about this, anyway, they were all undying enemy camps, and the battle of Ragnarok in more than two months would be fought to the death, and it didn't make a difference if you didn't offend.
Besides, Lu Xiao also did it on purpose.
Odin spends far more time on Midgard than in other countries, and it is best to have someone who has a firm grip on Odin so that others can move around with relative ease.
After discussing the next division of labor, Lu Xiao first teleported out of the cave, deliberately standing on the top of the snow-capped mountain and overlooking the Lake of the Nine Realms.
In the Golden Palace, Odin and Heimdall had just recovered their sight from the dazzling light, and their three eyes were red and staring at Lu Xiao, who seemed to be leisurely.
Heimdall took a deep breath, "God-King, I applied to go to Midgard to kill this man. ”
Many people misconceptually think of Heimdall as a mere janitor.
In fact, Heimdall, known as the patron saint, is not weak, and in the prophecy of Ragnarok, he dragged the biggest troublemaker Loki to die together, essentially ending the source of Ragnarok.
In addition to his role as the gatekeeper of Asgard, Heimdall also possessed the aforementioned clairvoyance and ears, and was able to summon the gods of Asgard to assist in battle through a special horn.
Odin has confidence in Heimdall, and if he goes to Midgard, he should be able to kill Lu Xiao under normal circumstances.
The red one-eyed flickered, and Odin finally shook his head and vetoed Heimdall's offer.
"Forget it, this outsider dares to appear in our sight so arrogantly, he should have made some conspiracy arrangements in advance, and taking the initiative to attack is likely to fall into his trap."
Heimdall remembered the experience of being yin twice before, and nodded silently.
"Whew~"
Odin exhaled a breath of turbidity, barely suppressing the grievances in his heart.
"Wait and see what happens for the time being, and keep a close eye on his whereabouts, I want to see what this impudent mortal wants to do."
……
Since he had prepared for Heimdall's peep in advance, Lu Xiao could keenly feel the gaze from the sky when he was out and about.
"Yongzhen, you and Freya are doing according to the plan."
Lu Xiao deliberately flew to a small island in the middle of the Iron Bay to divert Odin's attention from the hills on the shore of the Iron Bay.
After receiving Lu Xiao's heartfelt words, Yongzhen, Freya and Yuzao immediately began to act.
Due to Heimdall's ability to see through the void, this time Tamamo did not cast a spell to hide the traces of the three of them, but used a more primitive way to cover their faces - the hood.
The three of them who put on hooded cloaks took advantage of Lu Xiao's attraction of Heimdall and Odin to other directions, and sped up their movements to leave the cave and head north.
They did not stop in front of Fafnir's treasury, but continued north along the rugged mountain path, guided by Freya to the abandoned dwarven settlement.
"This is Coongard."
Freya lifted her hood and looked at the map in her hand, "I hope your calculations are correct." ”
Coonegard was once a bustling town, and the dwarves who used to live here disappeared at some point, leaving only a ruined wall.
Some detached dragon scales can still be seen on the periphery of Conongad, confirming the correctness of Yongzhen and Tamamo's previous speculation.
The trio cautiously explored the perimeter of Conongaard, trying to rely on buildings and bunkers to avoid direct exposure to the sky.
Through the density of the dragon's scales and the remnants of the spell traces, Tamamo and Freya determined the exact location where Fafnir had been bound before.
Behind the mountain, which should have been blocked by Fafnir's massive body, a secret passage leading to the city of Conongaard was revealed.
Of course, this secret passage was not stupidly placed directly in front of everyone, but was covered up by the Warner Protoss's unique blinding spell.
Freya was disdainful of Odin's clumsy methods, and she easily found the entrance to the secret passage, disarming dozens of traps along the way without any pressure.
Due to Lu Xiao's special reminder before parting, Yuzao has not relaxed her vigilance against Freya.
Today, Freya is like a toothless tiger, Odin's vicious curse limits her abilities, and Freya has a powerful spell that she cannot effectively use.
But once Freya breaks Odin's curse and regains all her powers, perhaps her mindset will change somewhat.
Tamamo is precautionary against this, and if it is necessary for her, she will not hesitate to evacuate with her master, and by the way, leave a big "surprise" for Freya.
Of course, this is only the worst-case scenario, and Tamamo doesn't want to tear her face with Freya unless she has to.
From a personal point of view, Tamamo, who is also a woman, is very sympathetic to Freya's experience, and meeting a scumbag who cheats marriage and money is indeed the worst experience in a woman's life.
However, the two sides have different positions, and Tamamo's sympathy for Freya does not mean that they will agree with her approach.
Yongzhen could feel Tamamo's wariness of Freya in front of her, and she didn't say anything to stop her
The heart of defense is indispensable.
The secret passage guarded by Fafnir was long, very long, and judging by the distance that the secret passage meandered through, the three of them should have entered the underground of the city of Conongaard.
After a long process of exploration and disarming, Freya finally entered an underground hall first.
The hall was pitch black, and Freya popped up a rune ball of light to illuminate the room.
The entire hall was filled with gold, silver, and jewels, glittering in the light, and buried in the treasure piles were weapons and armor that could be called artifacts in the human world.
To the well-equipped Yongzhen trio, these treasures are inconsequential.
Freya's gaze focused on the cylindrical platform in the center of the treasure vault.
A dark purple runestone hovers on the platform and slowly rotates, although it is shrouded in the enchantment and cannot be accurately perceived, Freya instinctively believes that this runestone is the key item to lift Odin's curse.
Tamamo watched Freya's movements without a trace, while Eijin looked around through the light.
This secret treasure trove has no staircase to the ground, and the col guarded by Fafnir is the only entrance.
Freya circled around the barrier of the guardian runestone several times, but was never able to find the weakness of the barrier.
Everything in the world is flawed, and Odin, the king of the gods, is no exception, and the difference is only in whether it is found or not.
Odin was cunning and didn't use Warner's spells to lay out the barrier, and Freya needed to spend more time parsing the barrier.
"Da~Da~"
The sound of uniform footsteps came from the far end of the secret passage, and Eijin hurriedly gestured to alert Freya and Tamamo.
Freya's method of cracking the traps in the secret passage was not rude, and she did not completely dismantle them, and the group of people who entered the secret passage on their hind feet should not have noticed that someone had broken in before them.
Extinguishing the lights of the secret vault, the three of them split into two groups and hid on either side of the entrance to the vault, silently waiting for the enemy to appear.
On the other hand, Lu Xiao flew a few laps over Tiewan until a special signal came from the coordinates he had left on Fafnir.
"Huh!"
Just as Odin and Heimdall were monitoring Lu Xiao's whereabouts in confusion, Lu Xiao suddenly disappeared from their sight.
"Sure enough, it's a space spell."
Odin is not stupid, through the clues revealed by Lu Xiao before, he has already guessed the power system of this alien traveler...... part.
Odin held his chin in his hand and pondered, "If he can escape our surveillance through space spells, why is he going around in circles over Iron Bay?" ”
Thinking of the vacuum of a certain secret treasury after Fafnir's escape, Odin's one-eyed suddenly widened: "Could it be! ”
"Not good! We've been tricked! ”
