Chapter 601 Destroyed Gems Reappear
The army rectified for a day and set off again. This time they did not need any assistance, because the enemy on the surface had been hit by their raids, so there was no open target to provide them with any opportunity to strike.
The situation seemed so good that many soldiers had forgotten their previous sacrifices and hardships and began to fantasize about the beauty of the triumphal ceremony. But as the head of the army, Brenheld was not as optimistic as the soldiers under her.
Although she didn't know why, even in such a good situation, she still felt a special sense of crisis. It seemed as if something had happened. The heavy feeling pressed on her heart, making her feel a laborious feeling even breathing.
The closer it is to the Golden Palace, the more serious this feeling is. Later, she directly ordered the marching speed to speed up and galloped towards the Golden Palace without stopping.
This order naturally makes people feel sad, but for the sake of the glorious victory, no one has raised any objections. So after running for two days and nights, the long-distance army finally saw the figure of the Golden Palace at one time.
What everyone did not expect was that when they appeared in front of the Golden Palace, what they were waiting for was not the imagined ceremony to welcome the triumphal, but the long alarm bells and the panic-like guards running around like headless flies.
No one expected such a scene, and in the face of this situation, the Valkyrie immediately rushed up and shouted at the guards above.
"I am Brenheld, the commander of Valkyrie. Who is stationed in the Golden Palace now? Why don't you open the door to welcome the victorious warriors? Answer me!"
The Valkyrie's voice suddenly made the sound of bees buzzing and screaming above, and it was not until a long time later that someone walked to the city wall and looked down.
He saw Brenheld, who was as bright as the morning star at first sight, and then he noticed the bright flags and neatly-shaped army. This immediately showed an extremely obvious joy on his face, so that he forgot to explain to Brenheld, and immediately spread his feet and ran, shouting to the quail-like guards around him.
"It's the team of Valkyrie and Heroes. Valkyrie is back, Lord Brenheld is back. We have saved, we have saved!"
Under his call, the guards above finally had a little spirit. The door began to slowly open. However, this situation made Brenheld and Zhou Yi look at each other tacitly, and then they saw something unusually wrong in the eyes of each other.
This is not like the core of a country, nor is it like the royal palace of a country. Instead, it is more like a small town on the border. After looting again and again, it has completely become the image of an angry little widow. It can't do anything except holding a skirt and crying and looking at anyone who appears in his own vision with fear.
This is abnormal, very abnormal. You should know that in their plan, the Golden Palace is the least dangerous place. Even relying solely on those unhelpful warriors and guards is enough to protect the comprehensiveness here, not to mention that there are the god of dawn, Heimdal, Loki, and the frost giants under her. No matter what, this should not be like this.
With this question, Brenheld and Zhou Yi took the lead in walking into the gate of the Golden Palace, and as soon as they walked into the gate, they immediately frowned.
Just like the ancient kingdoms, the Golden Palace is actually a city after all, the royal city of Asgard. In addition to the Golden Palace Hall where Odin, the king, lives, there are countless Asgard's mortal residences located here. These classical and distinctive houses are located around the Golden Palace, which firmly surrounds the Golden Palace like stars arching the moon. It has formed an amazing ancient city.
Although such a scenery is not as prosperous as the modern city, it is also prosperous enough to make anyone remember its beauty and glory.
But now, Zhou Yi only sees scars and unimaginable depression and desertification. The streets that were prosperous in the past have become dilapidated and surrounded by collapsed houses and shops. On the street, not to mention the welcome team, even pedestrians are hard to see two.
This made the Asgardians who were used to the prosperity of the Golden Palace and often laughed confidently and happily, and felt particularly uncomfortable and incredible, especially when they saw a pair of alert and fearful eyes staring at their every move in the dark, which made them even deeper.
At this time, it was not just Zhou Yi and Brenheld, but everyone discovered something wrong. Faced with this situation, all the Asgard warriors sucked their hearts. And a ball of evil fire quietly arose in their hearts, burning their hearts wildly.
They fought to the death on the front line, for these innocent relatives and compatriots, for the future and tomorrow of this country? Now they have finally defeated their almost invincible opponents, but the royal city of their own country has become like this. What is the meaning of everything they do, and what is the difference between them and defeated?
Questions, indignation, and concerns and worries about their families made many soldiers lose control of their emotions, and Brenheld, as the commander, felt this very clearly. So she immediately gave a few instructions to the closest sisters around her, and ordered the mortal warriors to disband on the spot and visit her family.
This order comforted their emotions a little, and after giving this order, Brenheld could no longer help but worry in his heart. He knew Zhou Yi and rushed to the location of the Golden Palace Hall with him.
But when he got there, Zhou Yi and Brenheld found that Loki had already sat on the steps before the throne, facing the two returning winners with a wry smile.
"It seems that you have achieved a brilliant victory. Although this is within my expectations, I still have to do it very beautifully. At least I can save some of my face."
Loki didn't look very optimistic at this time. She was wearing dark green armor, but she was covered in cracks on the armor. This seemed to prove that she had experienced a nearly harsh battle. Compared with the armor on her, her injuries were also extremely obvious.
The scratches on her face are secondly, and the key is her arms. The arms hanging on her chest and the thick bandage revealed from under the clavicle all show that her injuries were extremely serious, which is very inappropriate in common sense.
Regardless of the time, Loki is also a god, a god with terrifying vitality. Breaking the wound like a bone is at most a matter of sleep for them. And now, she actually needs to wear a bandage, which is completely unfair no matter how you look at it.
Unless the wound on her body is really in her eyes, or she just wants to use this method to shirk her responsibilities.
In both cases, Brenheld naturally favored the latter. She was anxious and didn't want to think too much. She immediately rushed up and took Loki's collar, pulled her up, and questioned her.
"What happened? What the hell are you doing? Why did this become like this, Heimdal, and the others? Are they all dead?"
"Do you think it's my fault, too?"
Loki's face immediately turned pale and terrifying, but at the same time she sneered and asked back, just like what she had done before, full of rebellious coldness.
"You promised me that this place will be safe. As long as you have your garrison! But now look at what this place looks like. What did you do when we are not here?"
Loki's reaction made Brenheld even more angry. In her opinion, this was Loki and the others' problem. They even won the war that was almost impossible to win, but the safest place became fragmented and devastated. Isn't they required to take responsibility for this?
"What did I do? I did everything I could do, but it was like you saw. We lost, and we lost a lot. If Thor hadn't rushed back in time, the entire Golden Palace would have been destroyed by the enemy. Even so, we would have lost countless losses, even to a point that you could not imagine."
"Do you know? Heimdal has been seriously injured and is in danger. In order to protect Odin, Friga died. She is dead, do you know? The woman I called Mother is dead, do you think this is something I would like to see?"
Almost shouted and pushed Brenheld's body away, Loki began to cry while roaring. Crystal tears flowed silently along her cheeks, and soon turned into an ice crystal. When the tears flowed, Loki just wiped it casually and immediately changed into a face and sneered.
"I forgot that the Asgardians don't believe in tears. I will pay attention, and next time I will not be doing something that has no purpose."
"Feel sorry!"
After hearing the bad news suddenly, Brenheld became stunned. She silently put down her hand and said to Loki, who described the miserable. Then, she ran towards Odin's palace as if she had thought of something.
At this time, Odin's safety had become the most important thing in her heart, and apart from that, everything became no longer important. For a moment, only Zhou Yi and Loki were left in the huge palace. Looking at the scarred Loki, Zhou Yi frowned and walked forward, holding her shoulders.
The power of life surged into his body, and then immediately defeated and forced back by another greater force. Looking at the cracks that suddenly appeared on Loki's face, which were as fine as blood-red crystals, Zhou Yi immediately widened his eyes and said incredible.
