While squatting down in front of Tamamo, Hermod's whole body shook and he got rid of the influence of the spell.
The sword thrust from behind Tamamo made the hairs on Hermod's body stand on end, before his consciousness fully returned.
As a last resort, he could only lean back desperately and assume an iron bridge posture with his waist, which had not been in a battle for a long time and was extremely stiff.
"Kacha!"
Tamamozen and Nagama clearly heard the screams coming from the bones of Hermod's waist, and suddenly made moves that they were not good at, causing Hermod to dodge to his waist.
"Well!"
The severe pain in his waist caused Hermod's expression and movements to deform at the same time, and Nagashin's sword struck at just this moment.
"Ding!"
The tip of the Uru-tachi just hit the rune stone in Hermod's hand, and the sharp tachi cut off the rune stone and three fingers of Hermod's right hand.
Odin and Heimdall, who were far away in the Golden Palace of Asgard, finally got rid of the mental pollution of the bunny girl Thor.
But when they set their sights on Midgard again, it was already too late.
Fafnir's eyes began to regain clarity when the rune stone failed. Lu Xiao, who was fighting a guerrilla war with the dragon, took the opportunity to cut off the rune stone pillar on the back of his neck with a sword.
"hold head high!"
Fafnir, who was freed from the restraints, immediately stopped attacking Lu Xiao and Freya. He sat on the ground and slapped his head with his paws, as if he had not yet fully awakened from his unconscious state.
Lu Xiao whispered a few words into Fafnir's ear, and then snapped her fingers to release the mirror space.
While reconnecting with the outside world, Lu Xiao used the spatial coordinates fixed on Yongzhen to activate the teleportation technique, and suddenly appeared behind Hermod with a distorted expression.
"No!!"
Odin's expression changed greatly and he stood up from the throne, but everything was of no use.
"Uh-huh!"
Hermod was not a powerful god at the level of the Twelve Lord Gods, and without their strict divine protection, the Xuanyuan Sword pierced Hermod's divine core from behind without any hindrance.
The space beacon was inserted behind Hermod at a very obscure angle, filling up the last 1% of the divine power in almost a second.
After confirming that Hermod's vital signs disappeared, Lu Xiao pulled out the Xuanyuan Sword and looked up at the sky.
"Ah"
In the end, Odin and Heimdall only saw a mocking smile, and their eyes suddenly turned white.
"Ahhh! Eyes, my glasses!!"
A small trick similar to the Sun Fist blinded Heimdall's eyes from peering into the Nine Realms in a short period of time. Lu Xiao seized this short time to meet up with Freya and teleport everyone to the cave found by Yongzhen and Tamamo.
.
…
Hermod's body was degraded by Freya's magic, and the four of them hid in the cave and took no action for the time being.
"Mimir, are you sure?"
Mimir: "Yes, although it is hard to believe, the coordinates are indeed below the ground."
Lu Xiao rubbed his temples with a headache: "In other words, we must avoid Heimdall's surveillance by digging holes and exploring underground."
The topography of Tiewan has undergone tremendous changes over hundreds of years.
The offshore island where the three gods fought was annexed to the shore due to the movement of the earth's crust. The coordinates calculated by Mimir and Freya were at the bottom of the lakeside hills.
"It's best to find an opportunity for Heimdall to temporarily shift his attention to other countries. Letting him stare here all the time is not an option."
Freya curled her lips and said, "Then you deliberately provoked Odin just now."
Lu Xiao shrugged and said, "I hate voyeurs the most. Shouldn't this kind of intrusion on others be despised?"
"Well, you are right."
Odin's defeat this time made Freya feel happy. The one-eyed, wretched old man liked to highlight his intelligence superiority and was always unfavorable when calculating others. This time he finally succeeded.
"Woo!"
Before Heimdall could regain his sight, Fenrir, who had been assigned other tasks by Lu Xiao, ran in from outside the cave.
Lu Xiao rubbed Fenrir's furry head: "Is there any gain?"
Through Yongzhen's intermediary translation, Lu Xiao got a positive answer from Fenrir.
Freya looked at Fenrir with a somewhat complicated expression, with expectations mixed with disappointment.
When she first learned that the demon wolf Fenrir was with the resistance organization, Freya, who had also heard about the prophecy, was overjoyed.
Because this wolf is a sure-kill weapon for Odin.
But after actually understanding Fenrir's strength, Freya was very disappointed. Its strength was far from enough to swallow Odin.
Freya and Lu Xiao made the same guess, Fenrir should be able to find his own opportunity in the Wolf Winter.
"Huhu"
The sound of vigorous flapping of wings came from above the cave, and Fafnir's joyful roar echoed over the Lake of Nine Realms.
After being imprisoned by Odin for hundreds of years, he finally regained his freedom.
With Fafnir's consent, Lu Xiao carved locating runes on his dragon scales before teleporting away.
Fafnir, who had escaped from the Asaph clan, planned to find a cave to build his nest first. Lu Xiao planned to wait for Fafnir to settle down before teleporting there to exchange some information with him.
The information Fenrir brought back came from Fafnir's hoard.
It did not find any particularly valuable treasures in the treasure house. The cunning Odin had already emptied the treasure house and moved them further north, to a dwarf homeland called Konongard.
Lu Xiao learned from Mimir that Konongard, like Vesegard, was one of the large settlements left by the dwarves in Midgard.
According to the judgment of Yong Zhen and Tamamo Mae, who were closest to the initial dragon roar, Fafnir was not released from his treasure house, but came from further north, which was slightly different from Lu Xiao's previous conjecture.
Since the real place where Fafnir was imprisoned was Konongad, Lu Xiao's trick on Odin gradually became clear.
"Fafnir's Treasure House" is such a straightforward name. Most adventurers will be attracted by the name of the treasure house and venture into the treasure house to hunt for treasures and make a fortune.
According to Fenrir's personal investigation, there are numerous dormant mountain monsters hidden in the treasure house, as well as a large number of insidious traps specially designed for humanoid intelligent creatures.
Of course, there are also the numerous bones that can be seen everywhere, all of which are poor adventurers who failed in their treasure hunt.
In fact, the really important things in Fafnir's treasury had long been transferred by Odin, and were still guarded by Fafnir himself, and were stored in Konongad, further north of the treasury.
After Fafnir escaped from the Asaph clan, Odin's "treasure" hidden in Konongad was no longer guarded. He should send someone to recover or relocate the treasure as soon as possible.
Lu Xiao wants to stay in the Iron Bay area to unlock Tire from the freezing of time and space, and is temporarily unable to get away.
The mission to Konongad can only be entrusted to others, and the treasure must be retrieved as soon as possible before Odin takes action.
Freya has already guessed what the "treasure" hidden by Odin is, and she is the first person to decide to go there.
Considering that Freya cannot harm others and her real combat power is almost 0, Yongzhen decides to follow her to Konongad.
Lu Xiao was worried that Freya would go back on her word after regaining her power, so before leaving, she called Tamamo Mae over to whisper a few words, and secretly handed her an important item, which attracted Yongzhen's suspicious eyes.
This time, only Tamamo-mae will follow Yongzhen to Konongad, and Fenrir will stay with Mimir to help Lu Xiao dig the hole.
On the one hand, considering Fenrir's importance in the Winter of Wolves, try to keep him away from Odin's surveillance and avoid exposing his identity in advance.
On the other hand, it is also Lu Xiao’s fishing plan, to test Freya’s true position after regaining her power.
'I hope you won't betray Atreus's trust, otherwise...'
