Lu Xiao still can't understand the nature of divine power, and he doesn't have divine power himself, so it is impossible for him to shape the original body for the Valkyrie.

But with the alchemy that comes with soul materialization, the enhanced version of the mortal body can still be made.

If Lu Xiao is not mistaken, there will be a point in time before the ending of God of War 4 that will usher in the Winter of Fimbull, which lasts for three winters.

Once winter is over, Ragnarok officially arrives.

Perhaps the advent of Finnbur Winter is related to the fall of Badr, the god of light, and Lu Xiao began to consider whether he could influence the coming moment of Finfer Winter by controlling Badr's life.

This time, the system gives a very vague definition of the world mandate.

The task requirement is to absorb as much divine power as possible, and Lu Xiao speculates that the indicator of mission completion is to fill the beacon with energy.

If that's the case, you'll be able to complete your mission and return to the Overworld after killing Badr.

But I don't know why, Lu Xiao's powerful sixth sense from the Isu people has been warning him, and I'm afraid things are not so simple.

Once Asgard learns that Badr has died in Midgard, Odin will surely send more of the Assaphs into Midgard to track down the killer.

It is unwise to fight Asgard, which has many gods, head-on, and the hole cards in Lu Xiao's hand are completely insufficient.

Just in case, he intends to co-opt the available combat power as much as possible.

The Valkyrie Council, cursed by Odin's plot, is a good choice, but given the Valkyrie's relationship with Freya, killing Badr could break up the already good relationship between the two parties.

Lu Xiao simply said the ugly words in front, and before reaching a cooperation agreement, the two sides agreed on three chapters of the law to rule out the possibility of turning against each other in cooperation.

Higerluan's soul body looked no different from her body, and the helmet that covered her entire face made Lu Xiao unable to see her expression, but she could see some of Higruon's emotions through those smart eyes.

"I can promise you the second condition, Odin has desecrated the existence of the Valkyrie, and sooner or later we will take revenge on him and Asgard."

"But the first condition ......"

Higrone groaned, "Can I ask why?" Have you offended Freya? ”

Lu Xiao shook her head: "Not yet, but there is a high probability that she will be on her must-kill list in the future, because I will most likely touch her biggest reverse scale." ”

Higgrune's eyes flashed, and she immediately guessed the reason for her years of following Freya.

"Badr?"

"That's right."

Lu Xiao spread his hands and said, "Now Badr is wandering around Midgard, completing the task assigned to him by Odin, looking for the remaining giants of Midgard to get a way to Jotunheim. ”

"I'm sure you've heard of Ragnarok, and if you want to take revenge on Asgard and Odin, a few of us alone won't be enough."

A flash of fierceness flashed in Lu Xiao's eyes: "We need the help of giants." ”

The giant, the eternal enemy of the Asaph Protoss, is in the prophecy of Ragnarok that both sides will be defeated.

Asgard was completely destroyed by Surtr's Flame Demon Sword, most of the gods fell in the final battle, and the giants died out in this war.

Although there are many corpses of giants in the ending of God of War 4, Lu Xiao believes that there must be living giants in Jotunheim, and the mountain where Kui Ye and his son went to scatter their ashes should just be a graveyard for giants.

Atreus, who has half of the Giant's blood, is the key to connecting the Giants.

But it's hard to say exactly how to get in touch with each other, after all, Kratos and Atreus are only trying to complete the Philippine ...... Or the giantess Laufey's last wish.

Lu Xiao even suspected that Lao Fei, who had foreseen everything, was not dead at all, she was alive in another form, silently witnessing the journey of her husband and son.

Valkyries are loyal to Freya, but that doesn't mean they're loyal to Freya's son Badr.

On the contrary, the Valkyries, led by Higrune, have little affection for the Yin and Yang Badr of the General Division.

Badr has always hated his mother because he can't feel everything in the world, and once the two meet, the god of light is likely to kill his mother.

As the saying goes, the ass decides the head.

Given the choice between Badr and Freya's life, Higgrune will not hesitate to save Freya, even if she becomes an enemy of Badr against Freya's will.

But......

Higgruen looked at Lu Xiao with some suspicion: "Warrior, with all due respect, you do have great strength, but you are only a human after all. ”

"There is a huge chasm between humans and gods, and the essential difference between divine power and magic is difficult to cross."

"Excluding other factors, just talk about combat effectiveness, you are indeed above Badr with your skill."

"But even if you don't mention how to break the divine powers, Badr has a permanent spell set by Freya herself, giving him a strong body that will never die."

"How do you make sure you can kill Badr to prevent future troubles?"

Lu Xiao smiled noncommittally: "You will know, Badr does have an immortal body, but he is not without weaknesses...... Right, Mimir? ”

"Yes." Mimir echoed: "Lu Xiao has obtained items that can pose a deadly threat to Badr, and all of Badr's protection will disappear as the weakness is broken. ”

Higruen didn't trust the stranger Lu Xiao, but she was familiar with Mimir and knew that this wise man of the Nine Realms was not a man of his own words.

Nodding in disbelief, Higgruen finally agreed to Lu Xiao's conditions.

"Well, if it's because of Badr's death that you are hated by Freya, I can make a position on behalf of the Valkyrie in this matter, and the two will not help each other."

Lu Xiao said with satisfaction: "That's enough, the agreement has been reached." ”

Raising her hand to suck in the soul of one of the Valkyries sitting in the councilor's seat, Lu Xiao used the third method to speed up the recovery of her soul body.

Under Higgrune's surprised gaze, Valkyrie Kara's soul body stared more and more under the effect of Lu Xiao's spell, and she could already clearly see the details of her helmet.

Mimir also said in amazement: "Dude, although your spatial and temporal spell attainments are enough to surprise me, this one-handed soul shaping really scares me. ”

Lu Xiao said with a smile: "It can only be used in the mortal realm, and I can't replenish the missing divine power of the Valkyries." ”

……

In order to avoid being caught in the Odin urn while staying in the Valkyrie Council Hall, Lu Xiao recovered the souls of the eight Valkyries and launched a teleportation spell to take everyone to Tyr's secret cellar.

He spent days here, reshaping the Valkyrie's body one by one.

Brock has been busy lately, and at Yongzhen's request, he uses the Asgardian steel obtained from smelting Valkyrie armor to create new armor for all Valkyries.

The Valkyrie's original armor was corroded by Odin's curse, and it was easy to cause problems if she continued to wear it.

Purified and reshaped by Brock, the new armor not only has a significant increase in defense, but also perfectly matches their respective fighting styles.

Just as Lu Xiao and the others were intensively preparing for Ragnarok, a loud roar suddenly sounded from the top of the mountain where Mimir had been imprisoned.

Lu Xiao had just assisted Hilud in completing the final physical adjustments, and after receiving the roar of Fenrir sitting outside the cellar, he immediately teleported to the bridge and looked to the top of the mountain through clairvoyance.

The towering portal of Jotunheim was collapsing, and a huddled figure was rapidly descending from the sky, presumably right in the middle of the bridge.

“…… Kratos? ”
