Revenge!
Chapter 131 Kratos: Pursuing justice? No, it's revenge!
["No! Brok!" In the God of War world, Atreus looked at Brok who was attacked on the screen and shouted.
"Quiet!" Kratos covered Atreus' mouth: "I know you are very angry, but what is more important now is to hide your whereabouts. The two dwarves will be very careful with the early warning of the video. They will find us later. Let's find a suitable hiding place first!"
"But…" Atreus looked at Brok who fell into Sindri's arms in the video in panic.
Freya held Atreus' shoulder: "Your father is right, the dwarfs' magic is magical, and Odin must use the power of the Rainbow Bridge to hurt them. The dwarves are not so easy to be attacked!"
Atreus nodded and continued to pay attention to the content on the screen.
"What surprised me most was Odin's disguise!" Mimir added, "In addition to the dwarves, there were you, Frey, and me, five people who are proficient in magic, but we couldn't recognize Tyr as Odin in disguise when we first saw him."
Freya frowned, "This is normal. Odin is always pursuing new knowledge, and we can never underestimate the knowledge he possesses... But since we found the fake Tyr in the future, at least the real Tyr is not dead."
"Why? Isn't the Tyr we see in the future Odin in disguise?" Atreus asked puzzled.
Shaking her head, Freya said, "Child, you said before that you saw that Tyr was not dead from the prophecy, which means that he was indeed hidden by Odin, but when you and Kratos were looking for him, Odin must have known about it, and he took advantage of the fact that you hadn't found him yet, and moved the real one and pretended to be Tyr himself... Odin cannot modify the prophecy, do you understand?"
"Then do we still have to look for the real Tyr?" Atreus looked at Kratos.
But Kratos didn't answer.
Elsewhere, Brock jumped up in shock: "Fuck you!"
"You scared me to death!" Brock looked at Sindri who was nervous behind him: "Why are you looking at me? Did you mop the floor clean, or did you create a magical weapon that surpasses me?! Put away your disgusting eyes, I'm fine! Humph, Odin, I didn't expect you to have such a disguise... Look, I see through you!"
Brock muttered, and ran to his workbench, wanting to make a magical prop to identify Odin's disguise.
Sindri looked at Brock nervously, and finally went back to the workbench to take out some bottles and jars, and sprinkled a circle of unknown liquid around, and then he was relieved, and he was worried about creating a prop that could also identify Odin's disguise. ]
"Let go of that child and fight with me!" Freya's long sword was unsheathed, staring at Odin, Kratos held an axe in one hand, and the other hand was ready to take off the Chaos Double Blade at any time. The golden flame on his body gushed out from time to time, and the wrath of Sparta was being suppressed!
"Tell your brother to throw the mask over to me, and I'll agree to it." Odin didn't care about his dignity as the king of Asgard, and threatened with a child.
Sindri was holding Brok at this time, looking at Freya for help.
Freya looked back at the dying Brok, but she knew that Odin was not as simple as he seemed, so she looked at Odin and the held hostage Atreus: "If he dies..."
"Okay, shut up, I don't plan to kill him," Odin looked at Freya and Kratos cautiously in front of him. He didn't worry too much about the useless former brother-in-law, nor did he worry too much about the Greek barbarian who could only brag. The person Odin didn't want to fight the most was the one who used to sleep with him. Only he knew how difficult she was as a magic master of the Vanir.
"Freya, save him!" Sindri checked Brok's wound, regretted not learning more healing magic, and asked Freya for help.
Realizing that the opportunity had come, Odin snorted coldly: "We are too busy to do everything now!"
Freya gritted her teeth and glanced at Odin, then sheathed her sword and tried to find a way to treat the seriously injured Brok.
Taking Atreus back a few steps, Odin warned Frey and Kratos who were approaching: "Don't do anything you will regret!" "
I have a lot of regrets," Kratos suppressed his anger and looked at Odin with murderous intent: "Tearing you in half will definitely not be one of them! Let go of my son!"
"Now I have the final say!" But Odin had a hostage in his hand, so he said fearlessly: "Give me the mask! Hurry up!"
Atreus looked at his angry father, who was strangled to the point of suffocation, and gave his father and Frey a hint with his eyes.
Frey took a deep breath and threw the mask high. Odin, who was too concerned about the mask, was immediately attracted to it. Unfortunately, he was not Zeus. He was not much taller than Atreus, a teenager. The mask passed over his head. Atreus seized the opportunity and transformed into a white wolf. He bit Odin's arm and took advantage of the pain to let go and escaped from Odin's control.
Odin was not much hurt by this minor injury. He picked up the mask and opened the door where he had hidden as Tyr. His ravens flew out and surrounded him. The teleportation array was about to start.
"What a pity, kid, it seems that we have to go to war after all!" Odin looked at the few people cruelly. He has never been a good person!
The ravens rose up, and Odin was about to leave triumphantly. A light flashed in Kratos's hand, and a spear was thrown out, accurately passing through the hole in the mask and nailing it to the wall, leaving Odin empty-handed.
Atreus stepped forward to confirm the authenticity of the mask, and then anxiously ran to Brok who was being treated by Freya.
"Please, you must save him, you must!" Sindri said earnestly while supporting Brok.
Freya wiped the sweat from her brows, and with the magic light surging in her hands, she tried her best to save Brok.
"You can't... you can't..." Sindri looked at Brok, whose expression was already dull, with tears in her eyes: "Maybe I should go back to the lake in the underworld..."
"Don't go..." Brok's expression was dull, but he seemed to be able to feel something, and he spoke to Sindri.
The lifeless eyes moved, and like a last glimmer of light, Brok looked at his brother: "I know what you did... I forgive you... but you can't go to the underworld again... Let go..."
After speaking, Brok's eyes completely lost the light, his head tilted, and his vitality was completely gone.
After looking at his brother's lifeless eyes, and then at the wound on his chest that was not cruel but fatal, Sindri shouted desperately: "Brock?"
Looking up to the sky to prevent his tears from falling on his brother, Sindri closed his eyes heavily, and in a wave of space, he disappeared silently with Brock.
[In the God of War world, Sindri looked at Brock who was completely dead on the screen and clenched his fists.
Looking at Brock who seemed to be unaffected by the death prophecy, Sindri asked: "When did you know?"
"Ha!" Brock hit the mask on the upper half of his face with a hammer, sparks flew: "I'm just slow, not stupid. I know exactly how many hairs you have on your butt. What have you been worrying about all day? Can't I see it?"
"Then why..." Sindri asked in confusion: "Why don't you talk to me about this?"
Brock sneered: "What's the point of talking about this? Can it make you make better props than me, or can you eat more delicious meals tomorrow? Go and make your scraps. I said, I forgive you!"
"I..." Sindri looked at Brock in confusion, and then returned to his workshop in a daze. Looking at the pile of magical potions in front of him, he didn't know what to do for a while. ]
In the video, Frey came with a mask and handed it to Atreus.
"So... now... what should we do?" Frey looked at her sister Freya.
"Now?" Freya picked up her sword: "Let's go kill Odin now, and everyone who stops us!"
Kratos walked up and looked at Atreus with a sad face: "Let's go."
"What?" Atreus looked at Kratos: "Where to go?"
Kratos took off the Galar horn from his waist and handed it to Freya: "We don't participate."
Atreus glanced at Freya and handed the mask that Odin cared about most to Frey.
"You can't run away, Kratos!" Freya looked at the backs of the father and son: "Odin won't stop unless we stop him! We need you!"
But Kratos just pushed the door open and walked towards the stone portal with Atreus.
[In the God of War world, Freya looked at Kratos in disbelief: "You're just going to leave like that? Odin killed his friend who was like a family member, and you're just going to leave like that?"
Kratos's eyebrows were gloomy: "The price of war is the death of more people."
"What does this have to do with you giving up fighting Odin? Odin will make more people suffer!" Freya was puzzled, questioning whether she had seen the wrong person.
Atreus looked at Kratos: "Father... Is this what you want to teach me? Control your emotions..."
Kratos looked at Atreus, nodded, and then looked at Freya: "When I was in Greece, I participated in many wars, and in anger, I killed too many people. War may be originated from anger, but anger must not be allowed to control the whole process. We must be calm enough to avoid being used by Odin... The Spartans will never let go of an enemy who did something like Odin!"
Freya looked at Kratos blankly, then looked at Atreus who was thinking with his head down, opened her mouth, wanted to say something, but couldn't say it.
Near where the three of them were temporarily resting, Sindri hid behind a boulder, sighed, and disappeared again.
Kratos looked in the direction of the boulder, said nothing, and continued to roast the deer he had hunted on the fire. ]
After returning to Midgard, which was ravaged by the cold winter, through the portal, Atreus walked in front, following the footprints on the snow, wanting to hunt a deer.
The footprints were very fresh and not covered by the wind and snow. After turning around a rock, Atreus saw the white deer.
With the bow and arrow, Atreus slowly aimed at the vital point.
When he was about to shoot the arrow, Kratos, who brought Atreus to hunt, held his hand.
"Why?" Atreus looked at Kratos in confusion. Wasn't it you who made me give up revenge and come hunting to vent? "Now the deer has run away!"
"We should go too." Kratos looked at Atreus in confusion: "When an animal is injured, it must stop bleeding, otherwise it will die... We are already injured, and coming here to hunt... is to distract us and remove all possible emotions that may cause us to be uncalm." Atreus
sat dejectedly on the snow: "This is all my fault..."
"No!" Kratos held Atreus' shoulders: "This is not your fault, it is essentially Odin's fault."
Thinking with his head down, Atreus raised his fighting spirit again: "We should find Sindri."
Atreus stood up: "I know where he will be." Kratos
looked at this young man who might be taller than himself in a few years: "Lead the way."
With a strong sense of uneasiness and guilt in his heart, Atreus trotted in front: "If I could..."
"See through the disguise that no one else sees through?" Kratos interrupted Atreus' words that took the blame on himself: "Or stop the unexpected attack? There is no 'if'."
Mimir, who was silent for a long time, said: "Your father is right. There are some things that even if you are a god, you can't do anything about it."
[In the first world of Sword and Fairy, the Drunken Swordsman burped, picked his nose, and said self-deprecatingly: "Drunken Swordsman... hum... Fairy..."
In the third world of Sword and Fairy, the sight of the Demon Lord Chonglou passed through the barrier of the six realms and went straight to the place where he had fought with Fei Peng; Zixuan looked at Qing'er in the baby basket in a daze.
In the world of Good Omens, the angel Aziraphale was happily eating dessert, and the demon Crowley sitting opposite him showed off his finger-licking original chicken, seemingly not affected by Mimir's words at all. ]
Back at the door of their home not far from the hunting ground, Atreus and Kratos drove the sled towards the Temple of Tyr.
Sitting on the sled, Atreus asked Mimir, "Is it possible for us to revive Brok? Sindri was resurrected before, maybe we can find a way to do it again!"
"I'm afraid it won't work, little brother." Mimir broke Atreus's luck: "When the soul loses its direction... For example, Brok's soul leaves his body and cannot reach the Lake of Souls, he is not only dead, he has also lost his 'afterlife'... There is nothing that can be used to revive him. Atreus, I promise you, if it is really within our power, we will not stand idly by!"
At this time, the two of them had already arrived at the frozen Lake of the Nine Realms and took the elevator of unknown principle to the upper level. Atreus did not pay much attention to the frozen lightning not far away, and took the lead to walk towards the temple.
"Atreus, why are you sure Sindri will be here?" Mimir seemed completely unaffected by the bumps of running.
Atreus replied; "This is where he reconciled with Brok, he will definitely come here."
Kratos was silent and pushed open the heavy door of the temple.
Not far away, there was a sound of knocking in the firelight. It was Sindri who was casting something.
"Sindri?" Atreus looked at Brokk's body on the platform with reluctance, and said to the figure who was casting something with his back to him.
Sindri stopped knocking, but soon started knocking again.
Seeing Sindri casting a dagger, Atreus said with guilt: "Sindri... I... I'm so sorry..."
"Stop it!" Sindri continued to knock the dagger: "Stop it, I don't want to hear it, you don't know what sorry means!"
Atreus pursed his lips and walked in front of Sindri: "We will make Odin pay for this!"
"Are you talking about the Odin you want to bring into our house no matter what?" Sindri said sarcastically, knocking the dagger in his hand harder.
"We have all been deceived." Kratos said standing in the shadows.
Sindri finally stopped forging the dagger; "But some people have been deceived more miserably, right? I gave you everything I had, my skills, my friendship, my home, my secrets, my treasures... and you only take! What do I have now?"
Sindri looked at Brok's body sadly: "I got the body of my only family, and now I have nothing! You want to apologize? Here's your apology!"
Seeing the originally mysophobic Sindri covered in dirt, Atreus said: "I... what can we do?"
Putting down the broken sword in his hand that was bent because of his bad mentality, Sindri said: "'We'? There is no 'we', never, you only care about yourself... so all you can do is get out of my sight!"
Watching Sindri start to strike the broken sword again, Kratos stepped forward and patted Atreus on the shoulder: "Let's go, leave him alone."
Looking at Sindri, Kratos said: "My condolences."
With a last look at Sindri, Atreus walked behind Kratos: "I... I thought we were his family too..."
"We were." Kratos said regretfully.
Atreus came outside the temple, feeling the chill of Fimbulwinter: "We can't make up for it, right?"
"That's right." Mimir said solemnly: "But when we let Odin face justice, we will definitely feel better."
Kratos disagreed with this statement: "Justice? What we pursue is not justice, but revenge! Every path I take will lead back to revenge... It's time to go back to Freya."
Looking at the Fimbulwinter, the world that once hid countless crises but was home to countless creatures was covered in ice and snow. In Kratos' calm eyes, it seemed as if countless flames were burning.

Chapter 132 Surtur
"This time when we go back... we really have to fight..." Atreus was a little nervous: "When we went to Svartalfaheim to find Tyr... I didn't expect it to be like this, and this is not what I wanted... I don't want to get involved with Brok..."
"We understand, Atreus, we understand..." Mimir sighed and comforted Atreus.
The wind and snow brushed across Kratos' face as he drove the sled towards the nearest portal. They were going to find Freya, and then... revenge on Odin!
[In the God of War world, Odin has arrived at Niflheim, the misty country.
Looking at the same cliff in front of him and in the video, Odin howled unwillingly.
The fragments must be collected in order? !
Damn, why doesn't the inventory video start directly from the first fragment!
On Kratos' side, the three of them had already rested, and under the guidance of two well-fed wolves, they rode on a sled towards the giant turtle where Freya once lived.
"Charlie!" Freya saw the frozen turtle dying from a distance, and she transformed into wings and flew over, using magic to heal its frostbite immediately: "Quick, go inside and find a way to light a fire, otherwise the healing magic will be useless!"
Atreus nodded and ran into the crack of the door that the giant turtle Charlie barely made.
"Brock?" Atreus had just lit a small flame and was worried that it would go out in a while. He turned around and saw Brok and his workshop squeezed into Freya's not-so-spacious little house.
"I told you that you can't live without me!" Brock pulled out an orange-red sphere from the workshop: "Put out your little fire! This thing works! Wait... um... it's done!"
After fiddling with the basketball-sized ball, Brock said proudly: "How is it, it's getting warmer! I went to Muspelheim to get the materials myself, I guarantee it will be as hot as summer in a while! It took two and a half years to make it!"
Atreus stepped forward and hugged Brock: "Thank you, really!"
"Oh!" Brock patted Atreus on the back: "Don't be like a woman, Fike didn't give birth to a daughter, right?"
Kratos looked at Brock and nodded without a smile. ]
After opening a box next to Brock's former camp, Kratos opened the portal and took Atreus into the gap between the worlds.
After arriving at Sindri's tree house, Kratos pushed the door open and walked towards Freya and others who were discussing.
"You're back." Freya looked back at Kratos: "Will you join us?"
"Yes." Kratos, who was always taciturn, put Mimir on the table.
Freya nodded: "It's time! It's time to unite all realms to fight against Odin. We must win in one fell swoop!"
"Tyr also thought about uniting people from other realms..." Atreus said: "I mean the real Tyr, but he failed."
"Then we must not fail!" Freya's eyes were full of fighting spirit: "Otherwise no one will survive to carry out the next Ragnarok!"
Mimir added: "The terrible thing is that Odin already knows every one of our plans!"
"That's right," Freya said: "We can no longer take them by surprise. Besides, there is only one way left to go to Asgard."
Kratos held Mimir's head and walked to the other end of the table: "Gallarhorn."
"That's right. We have to enter from the Temple of Tyr after the Gjallarhorn connects the nine realms." Freya looked at the map of Asgard that had been hidden for who knows how long and said, "The Temple of Tyr is in the south, Asgard is in the north, and Odin's army of heroic warriors will guard between the two."
Frey on the side added, "This means that we need an army!"
Nodding, Freya continued, "All races persecuted by Odin will respond, and the number of troops will far exceed Odin's expectations."
"This is just to reach the wall of Asgard. If we want to break the wall, we have to find the fire giant Surtur." Mimir said.
"Ratatosk managed to get this." Freya took out a purple egg and handed it to Kratos.
Taking the purple egg, Kratos said, "Atreus, Mimir and I will go find Surtur."
"I know where to find him." Atreus, who had traveled to various realms on the opportunity to help Odin find the mask fragments, said.
Mimir was greatly encouraged: "Great! Next is the part about allies. Who can we unite?"
"I will go to Helheim and try to recruit the army of the dead in the underworld." A person with the correct skin color who had not appeared in the inventory said.
Frey filled his glass: "I will return to Alfheim and unite the light and dark elves."
"You said it too lightly?" Mimir questioned: "The elves have been fighting a civil war for hundreds of years. How can you let them put down their hatred and fight against Odin?"
Spreading his hands, Frey said confidently: "Who makes them really like me?"
"Then you... go to Vanaheim?" Kratos looked at Freya and asked.
Freya nodded: "Yes, I will go to Sigrun and gather the free Valkyries."
"Excluding a few countries without armies, only Svartalfaheim is left." Kratos said in a deep voice.
Just when everyone was worrying about how to allocate manpower to go to the dwarf country to seek power, a familiar voice sounded behind everyone.
"I'll go to Svartalfaheim."
Atreus looked at the source of the voice, and it was Sindri, who no longer had a smile on his face: "Are you sure, Sindri?"
Holding the newly forged dagger in his hand, Sindri said: "I said I would go."
"That's settled." Freya picked up the horn: "Wish us all good luck."
Nodding, Kratos took the horn, hung the horn and Mimir behind him, and opened the door of the tree house with Atreus.
"Go to Muspelheim to find the last fire giant..." Mimir complained: "I envy other people's impossible tasks. I always feel that we might fail..."
Passing through the stone pile portal, the father and son came to the world gap. Kratos pulled out the Chaos Double Blades behind him and asked: "You said you know where to find Surtur?"
Atreus nodded: "Yes, when I went to Muspelheim with Thor to find the mask fragments, I solved the secret of his temple. Don't worry, I did it secretly behind his back!"
[In the God of War world, Odin went to Muspelheim with hope, looking for places where the mask fragments might be hidden in the huge realm. ]
"Listen to me." Atreus added: "When we find Surtur, we need to persuade him to combine with his wife Sinmara."
Kratos noticed something wrong. What did you see: "Combination?!"
Hearing the hint in his father's tone, Atreus scratched his head: "Yes... After the two of them... merge, they will create a huge monster to destroy Asgard."
[In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Loki just woke up with his head covered, and was having a headache about how to deal with the wine glasses on the ground, and then he heard the words of another Loki in the inventory.
"Surtur and his wife can create a monster that destroys Asgard?" Shaking his head, Loki murmured, "If they can destroy Asgard... then can they also destroy other realms... In this case..."
Loki's eyes flickered, and he staggered towards the Asgard Library.
He was going to look through some of the ancient books there, but there was no clue that Asgard could master the super weapon that could trigger Ragnarok.
Not long ago, Odin and Frigga told him his true identity. After knowing that he was actually a frost giant, Loki fell into deep doubt, wondering if the throne was passed to Thor because of his bloodline.
"If we really care about your bloodline, why would we bring you back and treat you as our own?"
Frigga said this while holding Loki's tearful head.
So, after getting drunk, Loki finally figured it out a little bit.
But if he just stayed silent, it would definitely not work. What Loki had to do was to be the one who deserved the most love, and the best way was to make Asgard bigger and stronger and create more glory!
And this is something that Thor, a jerk with beer and cream in his head, definitely can't do!
Wait, how did that jerk go to Midgard? ]
As soon as they passed through the portal and came to Muspelheim, which was full of magma, the old man with the correct skin color trotted over.
"Sorry... About negotiating with the goddess of death in the underworld..." The black man said a little embarrassedly: "I think... just... I think she might be more willing to talk to... the dead."
Casting his eyes on the head behind Kratos' butt, the black man said: "Mimir, it's your turn."
"It seems that the dead are sometimes more useful than the living." Mimir teased: "You two can probably hold on for a while without me."
Kratos untied Mimir and handed it to the black man: "Here you go."
"Thank you very much, see you later!" The black man took Mimir and left through the portal again.
Looking at the towering buildings looming in the dust in the distance, Atreus said, "I seem to see Surtur's furnace."
Kratos did not reply, but ran to a corner, took out a small item from a huge treasure chest, and then rushed towards the target.
Atreus was not surprised by his old father's behavior.
After all, he sometimes did this.
The journey to the furnace was a little thrilling, but the father and son had fought side by side many times. With tacit cooperation, for the fire creatures of Muspelheim, whether it was slashing with the ice-attributed Leviathan Axe or flexibly responding with the Chaos Double Blade, Atreus conscientiously played the role of an archer-using accurate shooting when the distance was far, and letting the monster know why the bow was divided into pounds when the distance was close. After
lifting a stone door weighing hundreds of tons and waiting for Atreus to pass through, Kratos followed his son slowly.
Stepping on the long swords on the ground, Atreus looked tentatively at the fire man who was tapping the long sword in his hand not far away: "Hello? Is that Surtur?"
Atreus shrugged without getting a response: "Either that's not Surtur, or he's ignoring us. Let's go..."
Kratos silently trotted behind Atreus.
"We're looking for a fire giant." After reaching the back of the fire man, Kratos went straight to the point.
Surtur said softly: "Please go away."
With a light wave of his hand, in a burst of high-temperature smoke and dust, Kratos and Atreus were caught off guard and flew out, knocking off a mound of earth with a sharp sword inserted in it, and fell on the open space full of long swords.
As the father and son landed, a soul-eating golem several meters high exuded waves of heat and drilled out from the ground.
"Deal with this first!" A light flashed in Kratos's hand, and a spear appeared, aiming at the huge soul-eating golem.
A spear was thrown, and the tip of the spear accurately hit the core that was about to release a high-temperature shock. But before Atreus
could breathe a sigh of relief, other Soul Eater Golems emerged from the empty space filled with long swords. Ignoring the other slow-moving Soul Eater Golems, Kratos took advantage of the dizziness of the first Soul Eater Golem after being hit, picked up the Leviathan Axe behind him, and rushed to the front of the Soul Eater Golem with the power of frost.
The axe blade chopped into the hollow core, and Kratos shouted loudly. Under the powerful force, the rock body of the Soul Eater Golem was hooked and thrown away.
The ring in his hand flashed again, and another spear appeared, piercing the core of the Soul Eater Golem in mid-air, and self-destructed under Kratos' control, blowing the Soul Eater Golem into a pile of rubble.
Looking back, Atreus was using the advantages of bows and arrows and many magics to fight with two Soul Eater Golems and a dozen other humanoid creatures.
Leaping up, Leviathan's Axe smashed heavily into the middle of the enemy. The powerful frost not only cooled the remaining two soul-eating golems, but also froze the surrounding ground, causing these monsters to stagnate.
Seizing the opportunity, the father and son used their unique skills and various abilities to quickly deal with these monsters.
After killing the monsters on the ground, they picked up some things that might be useful from the monsters, and the father and son walked towards Surtur again.
