As Kratos said, most of the gods deserved their death.
But there is a saying that goes well, if there are a hundred people, they come in all kinds of shapes, and the same applies to God’s template.
Among the gods, there are some who are kind and upright like Tyr, and there are also some gods who follow the crowd like Braki and Iden and dare not speak out their true thoughts.
It is human nature to protect oneself wisely, and there are many gods in Asgard who dare to be angry with Odin but dare not speak out.
Tyr's rising resistance made those who dared not stand up against Odin feel happy, but at the same time, they were anxious and had complicated emotions because of the intensifying crisis in Asgard.
'Brachi, please come back safely.'
…
Compared with the eastern battlefield, which is gradually becoming clearer, the attack of the Vanir Protoss in the west is more fierce.
Vader, who was responsible for the defense, had a much calmer character than Thor. He did not rush to the battlefield immediately, but sat behind the defense line and calmly commanded the operation.
The person responsible for commanding the vanguard of the Vanir is Frey, the only son of God-King Niord.
With boundless anger towards Odin, Frey barely suppressed his boiling emotions and launched a tug-of-war with the Asgardian defenders commanded by Vader.
The battlefield in the west is exactly the opposite of the battlefield in the east. The Warner Protoss is eager to break through the defense line, while the Asaph Protoss is relying on the protection of the fortifications to fight steadily.
"[Biquge www.boquge.co]No!"
At the frontline camp of the Warner Protoss, Frey gritted his teeth as he looked at the stalemate on the battlefield: "We must find a way to force Vader out."
"Leave this task to us."
Atreus, who was standing not far behind Frey, took over the words confidently: "Vader's ability to maintain the dilapidated defense line until now is all due to the mid-level officers on the battlefield who obey his orders."
"As long as these officers are removed, it will be difficult for Vader's orders to be conveyed to the entire army."
"Beheading operations are exactly what we are good at."
Kratos, Atreus and Skadi were sent into Asgard by Lu Xiao not long ago. On the other side of the battlefield, Tyr came forward, while Freya and the Valkyries were hiding behind the scenes and waiting for opportunities.
Frey knew that these guests who had just arrived for support not long ago were arranged by Lu Xiao, but the time they had been together was too short, and he had no confidence in the strength of Kratos and others.
Not to mention that there was a child who looked under ten years old in this group of three.
Atreus, who was good at observing people's emotions, saw Frey's doubts, and relied on his eloquence to persuade Frey to let them enter the front line.
Killing is Kratos's specialty. Vader, who was commanding from behind, soon realized something was wrong. His orders were lagging behind significantly. On a rapidly changing battlefield, this situation was very fatal.
The successive deaths of officers made Vader no longer able to safely sit in the command post. He could only leave the defensive duties and come to the front line of the battlefield to directly command at close range.
Vader is the god of the forest. He is almost invincible wherever there is a forest. All animals and plants in the forest will obey his call.
"Spirit of the forest! Answer my call!"
Vader, who was not good at words, rarely spoke a complete sentence.
The location of the western defense line was specially selected by Odin. There is a vast forest near the defense line. This is the main reason why Odin photographed Vader on the western battlefield.
Odin believed that Vader, who was fighting at home in the forest, would never lose.
Even Thor could not defeat Vader in the forest, and every sparring session would turn into a bladder fight that made Thor extremely irritated.
The forest near the defense line suddenly became agitated at Vader's call, and all kinds of animals swarmed out of the forest, forming a huge tide of beasts.
Some big trees also changed their shapes under the influence of Vader's power, sprouted legs and slowly moved towards the military formation of the Vanir Protoss.
"I knew..."
Frey smiled bitterly and rubbed his brows. As early as when he saw the surrounding forest terrain and learned that the commander of the place was Vader, Frey had considered the possibility of being attacked by a tide of beasts.
"Switch from offense to defense! Spear array!"
Under Frey's order, which was well prepared, the soldiers of the Vanir protoss quickly changed their formation.
The soldiers in the front row fought and retreated, while the shield-bearing guards in the middle row pushed forward. The spearmen stretched out their spears from the gaps in their shields, and like porcupines with quills, they faced the direction of the surging beasts.
.
The soldiers of the Asaph clan did not take the opportunity to pursue them. They also needed to avoid the impact of the beast tide.
When the vanguard of the beast wave was about to rush into the spear formation, Frey used the magic of the Warner Protoss to provide magical blessings to the front row warriors.
As the prince of the Vanir, Frey, like his sister Freya, is proficient in combat skills and Vanir magic.
"hold fast!"
A thick earth-yellow light flashed across the bodies of the soldiers in the front row.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The beasts that hit the shield one after another were unable to defeat the lance array of the Winter Warner Protoss. The soldiers in the front row firmly stabilized the defense line. Most of the beasts that hit the shield were pierced by the spears.
But this is only the first wave of impact, and more beasts will continue to come in the future.
There are limits to the beasts in the forest, and Vader's power cannot create animals and plants out of thin air.
As long as he can withstand Vader's counterattack, Frey is sure to defeat the Asaph clan's resistance.
But this will inevitably waste a lot of time. Vader's purpose is to delay time so that Asgard has more time to calmly dispatch troop reinforcements.
'I hope Lu Xiao's friends can bring some beneficial changes to the war situation.'
…
"ha!"
The Chaos Double Blade Chain thrown by Kratos wrapped around the neck of an Asaph Protoss officer, his hands shook slightly, and the double blades cut off his head.
Atreus never stopped holding the bow and arrow, killing many officers one after another. Naturally, the father and son were targeted by the Asaphite army.
"Atreus!"
"Coming!"
Kratos was used to being reckless in his early years, but after having Atreus, his fighting style changed slightly, and protecting Atreus's safety was more important to him.
Retracting the Chaos Blades, Kratos took the Leviathan Battle Ax from his back.
"boom!"
The heavy battle ax struck the ground heavily, and a solid ice wall rose from the ground, temporarily blocking the pursuit of the Asaph soldiers.
Kratos and Atreus took the opportunity to rush into the woods to hide. Skadi stood on the top of a big tree, bending her bow and arrows. Any enemies who dared to enter her shooting range were killed by her precise bows and arrows.
Skadi's main task is to shoot the birds of prey in the air, otherwise Frey's defensive formation will face even greater pressure.
Arriving under the tree where Skadi was hiding, Kratos raised his head and shouted: "Woman! Can you attack Vader?"
"cannot."
Skadi's fingers never stopped pulling the bowstring, and every magic arrow would take away a life.
"Vader is beyond my ultimate shooting range. I have to change my position to snipe him."
Kratos: "Then why don't you change it quickly?"
Skadi took the time to glance at Mr. Kui under the tree, with an undisguised look of sarcasm in his eyes.
"I leave here and you come and help me suppress the raptors?"
As both a bow user, Atreus admired Skadi, and he had taken the opportunity to ask Skadi for a lot of shooting skills.
"Scadi, how about I defend you instead?"
Skadi looked at Atreus: "You... can barely do it, but I need someone to help me attract Vader's attention so that he doesn't notice my whereabouts."
Kratos snorted softly, turned around and walked out of the forest: "You concentrate on shooting, Vader will not have time to pay attention to you."
