Chapter 623: Heart of Asgard
Regarding the repair of the beacon, Brock and Sindri are not sure to guarantee it, and they need to do some research on the beacon before they can give an accurate answer.
Considering that the first half of the Winter of Swords would most likely be spent in peace, Lu Xiao temporarily stayed at the Tyre Temple to oversee them, allowing them to hurry up and draw conclusions.
As Lu Xiao expected, after losing Fujin and Wuni, Odin's reaction to the major events that occurred in the Nine Realms became noticeably sluggish.
He guessed Lu Xiao's intention to go to Warnerheim, and prepared to let the eloquent god envoy Helmod send an envoy to the Warner God Clan again.
Unfortunately, Niord, who had made up his mind, completely blocked Asgard's passage to Warnerheim, and Helmod, who was blocked out of the door, could only stand in front of the rainbow bridge and stare dryly.
The powerful Warner Protoss joining the enemy camp has put a lot of pressure on Odin, and his temper has become more and more unstable lately, and he may explode at any time.
After the deaths of Fojin and Sunny, Odin had Heimdall take their place.
Heimdall, who has clairvoyance, can use the Rainbow Bridge connecting the Nine Realms to help him get a limited glimpse of the various realms.
The premise is that the spatial access to other realms must be open.
Following Jotunheim, Warnerheim also closed his own borders, and Odin could only let Heimdall focus on other realms, focusing on the movements of the fire giants of Muspelheim.
The Fire Giants are also a member of the Giants and are bound to be enemies of Asgard in Ragnarok.
Odin had heard the prophecies about Surtr and the Flaming Sword, and even though he knew that he would probably not be able to change the situation as a player in the game, he still wanted to make some attempts.
The Winter of Swords entered the second month, and the members of the Valkyrie Council who went to various countries to unseal their subordinates returned one after another, each bringing back dozens to hundreds of ordinary Valkyries.
Lu Xiao remained at the Temple of Tyre, waiting for Brock and Sindri to give a final answer.
When Gerndal returns from Musberheim and is the last to return to the Tyr Chamber to join the others, she brings bad news to Lu Xiao and the others.
"I felt the breath of the Heroic Warrior in Muspelheim, and although I don't know exactly where, Odin must have wanted to sneak up on Surtr."
Valkyries, who are responsible for channeling souls, have a high sensitivity to the soul body, and many of the Valkyrie warriors under Odin's command were personally brought to Valhalla by the Valkyries in the past.
The information provided by Gerndal, while somewhat surprising, was not entirely unexpected.
Mimir knew Odin very well, he was definitely not one to sit still, and even if there was only a glimmer of hope, he would devote all his strength to trying to reverse the prophecy.
Lu Xiao will not fully believe in the prophecy, even if it is a near-closed-loop time rule like God of War 4, as long as the important nodes of history are changed to a certain extent, the ring structure can theoretically be broken.
After thinking about it for a while, Lu Xiao decided to send a group of Valkyries to Muspelheim to assist the fire giants in repelling Odin's elite ambushes.
As Scati had previously explained, Surtr was in the final stages of crafting the Flaming Sword, and he couldn't spare his hands to pay attention to the distractions from the outside world, and the forging process would likely continue until the moment Ragnarok officially began.
The Fire Giants are smaller in number than their distant cousins, the Frost Giants, and without the King's leadership, it is unknown whether they will be able to hold the Soultr retreat in the Forge of the Depths under the raid of the trained Immortal warriors.
The Heroic Warriors are all warrior souls specially selected by the Valkyries from Midgard, and the Heroic Warriors who advocate personal strength are more suitable for small-scale battles, and they are a bit violent when put on the main battlefield like a meat grinder.
Odin knew very well how to use the Valhalla, and before the battle began, these special forces-like Valhalla warriors were the mobile aces in his hands, and could be dropped through the Rainbow Bridge to various worlds that had not yet closed to complete difficult tasks.
Unlike the Frost Giants, the Fire Giants don't have a variety of rune spells, nor do they have the powerful powers of foreknowledge like the Frost Giants.
Almost all of the Fire Giants are warriors with tendons, and they can't close the spatial passage to other realms from this side of their own realm.
The unsealed frontier is completely undefended for Asgard, which holds the Rainbow Bridge.
The fire giants don't even know when the Immortal warriors entered Muspelheim.
Gerndal had been stationed at Muspelheim for many years, and she and her immediate subordinates were familiar with the Fire Nation.
Under Lu Xiao's instructions, Gerndal and his party, who had just returned to Midgard, were sent back to Musberheim by Lu Xiao through a portal, at the top of the volcano where Lu Xiao and the fallen Gendal had fought.
Excluding the nine council members, the Valkyries and the Immortal Warriors are almost identical.
Lu Xiao believes that the Valkyrie, who has half of the home field advantage, can defeat the unfamiliar Valkyrie warriors...... The premise is that Odin does not send more reinforcements.
The Winter of Swords has entered the final moon, and the dwarven brothers who have been thinking about it for a long time finally have a new harvest.
"We've figured out a way to fix the space beacon, but we need a special material."
Lu Xiao asked without thinking: "If you need anything, just mention it, as long as you can get it, I will definitely bring it back to you." ”
Brock and Sindri looked at each other, with the elder brother Brock acting as the red face.
"Don't be in a hurry to make sure that there are many types of materials we need, most of which can be obtained through our communication channels with the Dwarven Kingdom, and there is only one that you need to help obtain."
"Tell me, what's it."
Sindri scratched his head and said, "Heart of Asgard." ”
Lu Xiao: "Huh? ”
Brock explained, "Don't get me wrong, the name was given by Odin, not to refer to the constituent core of Asgard, but to a very rare material. ”
"The Heart of Asgard is a special material that is not gold and wood, a non-renewable resource, and even Odin, who is sitting on the Nine Realms, can't take out too much stock."
"When we built Mjolnir, we added a small Heart of Asgardian to the core of the hammer, and you know the power of the finished product."
Sindri, who has always been funny, rarely put on a serious expression: "The Heart of Asgard can catalyze the user's divine power to infuse an item, allowing the item to exert its maximum power while remaining stable. ”
Lu Xiao touched her chin and reinterpreted it with her own understanding.
In other words, with the catalyst of the Heart of Asgard, it is possible to achieve stable overclocking without hurting the item itself? ’
If you think about it, you can guess that such a precious thing must be difficult to obtain.
Brock pursed his lips and said, "You should have guessed that the Heart of Asgard is only found in Odin's Golden Palace Treasury. ”
"Considering that Odin has closed the other realms to Asgard, I'm afraid that he will only have a chance to get it after the Battle of Ragnarok is over...... If you can defeat Asgard. ”
