After getting the mistletoe, Lu Xiao finally had some confidence in her heart. At least she wouldn't be helpless when she met Balder again.
As Sindri waved goodbye, the group embarked on the journey again, returning to the Temple of Tyr through the Lake of the Nine Realms, which was already in sight.
When passing by the blacksmith shop in front of the door of the Kingdom Teleport Room, Brock disappeared again. He probably moved to somewhere in the Nine Realms through the dwarf's talent.
This time, I did not encounter Kratos and Atreus when I returned to the Temple of Tire. Judging from the time, the two people should have gone to Alfheim to obtain the eternal light.
"Boom~"
Lu Xiao inserted the Rainbow Bridge stone into the base of the teleportation device. The Temple Bridge rising from the pool was facing Alfheim.
Under Mimir's instructions, Lu Xiao adjusted the bridge to the direction of Muspelheim, drew the representative symbol of the Kingdom of Fire in the void, and activated the teleportation runestones leading to Muspelheim.
"Buzz!"
The Rainbow Bridge in full operation caused the entire teleportation room to sparkle with magnificent light and shadow. The energy of Muspelheim's fiery red teleportation runestones quickly accumulated, and Lu Xiao and his party were quickly sent to their destination.
Before stepping out of the temple door, the high temperature outside began to seep into the hall.
"Wow!"
When Lu Xiao pushed open the door of Tire Temple to the outside world with both hands, a scorching breeze blew over the three people and the wolf.
What caught the eyes of several people was a red-black world, with tongues of fire and lava jumping out of the ground everywhere, as well as rocks that were burned black by high temperatures.
The sky in Muspelheim is also red, but it is different from the flaming clouds at dusk. The red is deeper, giving people a depressing feeling.
"Ouch!"
As a hairy creature, Fenrir dislikes the environment of Muspelheim very much. Sparks floating in the sky will burn a small piece of fur black when it falls on it.
In the same way, Tamamo Mae is also not interested in the Fire Kingdom.
Lu Xiao wrote a set of runes in the air.
"Yongzhen, inject water magic into the runes."
Yongzhen happily complied. After the aqua-blue magic power filled the runes, the power of the runes surged to the three people and one wolf respectively, forming a thin protective layer on their skin, isolating the high temperature and environment from the outside world.
Influence.
"Get it done as soon as possible. I don't want to stay in this harsh environment for too long."
Using the strong wind to lift several people up together, Lu Xiao tried his best to control the wind and push forward.
Viewed from the air, there is no fire giant visible in the area connecting Muspelheim and the Temple of Tyr. It seems to be a barren mountain far away from the core area of the fire giant country.
An unknown object suspended in mid-air can be seen on the edge of the platform on the top of the mountain. It wraps itself tightly into a ball with feather wings and remains silent until no one approaches.
When Mimir saw the figure wrapped in red fire feathers, he lamented: "Oh, poor Gendal, I don't know how many years she has been sleeping here."
"Go, Lu Xiao, give her a break."
"Da~"
Skills need to be used frequently to become more proficient. Compared with when he first came to this world, Lu Xiao's ability to fly in the wind has improved significantly. At least he no longer staggers and loses his balance when landing.
Lu Xiao doesn't plan to take care of all the Valkyries by himself. Depending on the situation, he plans to give Yong Zhen some opportunities to practice.
However, this Valkyrie whom Mimir calls Gendal is obviously not a suitable training target.
Both Yongzhen's shikigami are furry types, and they can be easily restrained against Gendal who obviously has fire attributes.
"Yongzhen, please retreat first."
After confirming that Yongzhen and others had retreated to the edge of the platform, Lu Xiao pulled out the Xuanyuan Sword and wrote several sets of runes in the air.
"Strength enhancement, agility enhancement, fire protection, physical resistance, life increase, super intuition, dominating body."
"at last……"
Lu Xiao solemnly wrote a set of extremely complicated green runes in the air. This was a reward given to him by Scathach when he was practicing in the Kingdom of Shadows.
"Kill God."
Standing in front of Tamamo outside the venue, she looked at Lu Xiao's back and complained: "Add a lot of statuses at the beginning? Why does it feel so much like the RPG game I have been playing recently..."
Like most humans, when Tamamo-mae learned how to use a computer, the first thing she learned was how to play games.
Lu Xiao always felt that Tamamo Mae would be poisoned by modern technology sooner or later and turn into a useless fox.
Having made all preparations, Lu Xiao cautiously approached the cliff.
When he approached within ten meters, the Valkyrie Gendal, who had wrapped herself into a ball of fur, finally reacted.
The overlapping wings quickly spread to both sides, revealing a female warrior wearing golden armor.
All Valkyries wear helmets with different styles. The feathers of Gendal's wing helmet are a relatively rare fiery red, which may be related to the fact that she is responsible for guiding the soul of the Fire Kingdom all year round.
"tumultuous!"
As soon as he woke up, Gendal immediately launched an attack without mercy.
She raised her hands, and Lu Xiao felt the special energy around her gathering rapidly.
'Divine power.'
In less than a second, scorching fire rain fell from the sky over a large area, leaving large swaths of flames on the ground on the summit platform.
The hard mountain rocks were also crackled by the ultra-high temperature, and there were even signs of initial crystallization in some places.
'So fast!'
Lu Xiao was sure that Gendal had prepared before casting the spell, but her preparation time was much faster than Lu Xiao expected. This large-scale magic was released as if it were instantaneous.
In order to create a fighting environment that was as favorable to him as possible, Lu Xiao gathered the clouds in the sky before the battle began.
There is a saying that the wind helps the fire, but the strong wind carrying the heavy rain can in turn suppress the flames.
This time Lu Xiao did not call for thunder and lightning, but simply used the Dragonborn's talent of calling wind and rain.
"call!"
The howling wind blew Gendal, who was floating in the air, staggering, and her movements paused for a moment.
Lu Xiao seized the opportunity to bypass the area where the flames remained on the ground and ran a Z-shaped route to approach Gendal.
The Xuanyuan Sword thrust towards Gendal with kinetic energy.
After regaining consciousness, the Valkyrie flapped her wings out of Lu Xiao's attack range. Her dexterous wings changed directions in the air, and before Lu Xiao could retract her attack, she kicked her from the sky.
"clang!"
He raised his left arm to block Gerndal's flying kicks, and the opponent relentlessly launched multiple heavy kicks.
During the final blow, Gendal's toned wheat-colored calves brushed against the side of Lu Xiao's face.
This was not a glamorous experience. The strong wind caused by the sharp kick scraped a gash on Lu Xiao's face, and blood immediately burst out.
In terms of absolute strength and speed, Lu Xiao was sure that Gendal was not stronger than herself, but with the blessing of her divine power, she was able to unleash an offensive that dazzled Lu Xiao.
The same applies to the previous large-scale rain of fire. It is impossible to complete the preparation of a large magic in just one second. According to common sense, it is impossible.
He couldn't think too much during the battle, and the messy thoughts in Lu Xiao's mind passed by in a flash.
Gendal's strength had been exhausted. Lu Xiao took advantage of the situation and used more force with his left hand to push Gendal out.
"Whoa!"
Xuanyuan Sword followed closely and struck out a golden sword energy. Gendal, who was in mid-air, quickly adjusted his posture and waved his wings to get out of Lu Xiao's attack range.
After wiping the wound that was still bleeding, Lu Xiao used a small spell to heal the flesh wound.
'Those wings are too flexible, so we must first find a way to block her mobility.'
