Chapter 256: Balder's Location
After passing through the World Gate, Ron and the others arrived at the gap between the World Trees. The space here was not very large, but there was a large living area behind the main hall built by the dwarf brothers. Although this place could not resist the spread of Fenrir's Winter, everything was much better than the outside world.

Under the guidance of some militiamen, people entered the gap between the world trees one by one. However, after feeling the cold, some people hesitated a little, after all, the original shelter had a better environment, and because of the proper maintenance of the ritual, there were even birds singing and flowers blooming.

Although it was not his territory, Ron never tolerated this kind of behavior, nor did he force people to wear plate armor. If they didn't want to come, they could just stay where they were and freeze for two days. When they felt the pain, they would know to come over.

Well, by that time all the better places will be occupied, so you’ll have to find a place where no one cares about you to build a house.

In a word, come if you want, but don't come. Come back and complain, and I'll whip you.

Tightening the copper-headed leather belt around his waist, Ron in the main hall said, "Then, we have two main things to do."

"First, find Balder. As the god of light, Balder's safety is directly related to Fenrir's Winter. In the original destiny, Balder would die two years ago, and then Fenrir's Winter would last for three years. Finally, the horn of Ragnarok was blown, and the Nordic world ushered in rebirth."

Ron said methodically, "Badur is a sign, a medium. There must be some connection between her disappearance and Fenrir's Winter."

"Second, find Tyr. This guy should know a lot of inside information and he is very powerful. In the final war, he can make many wavering centrists surrender directly and reduce the pressure."

After a pause, Ron looked at Kratos standing aside.

"What is the prophecy you saw about Tyr?"

"He's been imprisoned." Kratos said, "I don't know where it is, but there are a lot of volcanoes with black smoke."

"It's Svartalfarheim!" After hearing the characteristics described by Kratos, Brock, the blue-skinned dwarf brother next to him, said, "It must be there! The last thing there is a variety of mines and volcanoes with black smoke! Where is Tyr imprisoned? That's a bit tricky, because there are so many mines there, and it will take a long time to find it without a guide."

"That one over there is fake." Ron interrupted the dwarf brother before he could finish. "Odin is also a powerful wizard and has his own views on fate. That is a trap he deliberately set. It is true that there is a Tyr waiting there, but she is Odin in disguise. She has always wanted to infiltrate the team that is resisting him, so as to gain more benefits for him."

"Thattier..."

Ron said, "It's true that Tyr is imprisoned in the secret prison of the Aesir Odin in Niflheim. If you want to get in, you need an insider to lead the way. Otherwise, you can only wait until Ragnarok is over to find a way to get him out."

Tyr is very strong, very strong. But in the game, the fake Tyr is always EMO and has no fighting spirit. The real Tyr keeps healthy all year round and even practices Tai Chi.

In God of War 5's DLC Valhalla, the dream of the Norse God of War VS the Greek God of War is realized. Compared with the plot of the game itself, the DLC can be said to be extremely conscientious. In the process, Tyr also showed what it means to love traveling - Greek round shield spear, Mayan obsidian saw sword, Egyptian khepa sickle, Japanese samurai sword took turns to fight, and proved what it means to be a traveling god of war with actual combat.

In addition, although he is called the God of War, he is kind to others. It is no wonder that Tyr also has a good reputation in other realms.

Although Tyr is called the God of War because he is better at leading troops in battle, how could someone who is feared by Odin be just a show-off?

"The course of this world is a little strange, so be prepared."

After hearing what Ron said, Freya nodded and said:

"I am very familiar with Niflheim, and I have an impression of the secret prison you mentioned. I can try to lead people to sneak in, but I have to find a way to divert Odin's attention. With his obstruction, even if I can get in, I may not be able to get out safely, let alone find Tyr."

"Count us in." Hearing this, Freya's brother Frey nodded and said, "If it is Odin's secret prison, there may be many Vanir compatriots there. I may be able to provide help."

Frey, in traditional mythology, is Freya's elder brother. But in God of War 5, he is Freya's younger brother. Although the two made different choices in the past and have different personalities, the fact that they quarrel as soon as they meet shows that they are definitely siblings.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

Ron paused and said, "Dear Queen, if it's ok, you and Loki can go with Freya."

"Well, she and I have a lot to talk about."

Hearing this, Queen Frigga nodded and smiled at Freya. Although they didn't say much and even said it was just their first meeting, it was obvious that they had become good friends.

At least, when it comes to children, they definitely have a lot to communicate about.

After hearing what Ron said, no one else was interested, but Kratos raised his eyebrows hesitantly. After a while, he couldn't help but interrupt Ron and pointed at Loki beside him and asked rudely, "His name is... Loki?"

"Yeah, Loki."

Ron nodded, not surprised - although it was a bit disappointing, in fact, Kratos had not been to Asgard, the base world. Mainly, Kratos was a workaholic. In addition to carrying out missions, he was purchasing weapons, repairing weapons, and preparing for the next mission. Not to mention Asgard, even Armstrong, the newcomer in the mental hospital, and Emperor Kratos did not have much communication. They only nodded when they met, and then continued to busy themselves with their own things without saying a word.

Well, Kratos did know a little about Geralt's family and Sekiro's group who arrived earlier than Kratos. But generally speaking, it was just like that. Geralt's family was okay, because Loki often went to Asgard with Ciri to study, so they would say hello when they met. But the others...

Of course, not everyone knows Kratos. For example, he knows Jade from the old man's antique shop next door, who is playing well with Atreus. She is lively and likable, and Kratos doesn't hate her... The main thing is that when he is with Jade, Atreus can also show the feeling that a child should have. For example, smile, liveliness, happiness, etc...

This is something Kratos never had, because he was born in Sparta and received military training since he was a child. It's not that he doesn't want Atreus to grow up freely and happily, but because Kratos himself doesn't know what it means to grow up freely and happily... If he hasn't experienced it, he naturally doesn't know what to do.

Now, looking at Loki, Kratos' eyes were full of surprise. Then he looked at Atreus behind him.

"Boy, have you known each other for a long time?"

"Yes." Atreus nodded and said helplessly: "And I told you... when I came back from class."

Kratos: "..." Without saying anything, Kratos just nodded after a brief silence. Atreus was obviously used to Kratos's reaction now, and even spread his hands helplessly towards Loki and Ron, as if to say, "Well, what can I do?"

Shaking his head, Ron said, "Leave Balder's matter to me. The feedback formula I designed on Balder is still running. If there are no problems, let's go about our business."

Hearing this, no one objected, so they dispersed to prepare what they needed.

Atreus, Kratos, Hela and others followed Roen. The others followed Freya to rescue True Tyr. In order to effectively interfere with Odin's sight, some members of other races who had joined the resistance, such as the light and dark elves, would rescue the false Tyr to ensure that Roen's team and Freya's team could complete their respective tasks more conveniently.

In fact, Freya wanted to find Balder first - she really valued this child. But there was no other way. In the face of Ragnarok, Freya knew what was more important, so she just repeatedly begged Ron to ensure Balder's safety. If there was any problem, he should send a message immediately, and they would provide support through the portal of the World Tree as soon as possible.

Ron expressed his understanding and began to look for a medium about Balder.

Still the same old three.

Summon Mingnu, one knife, and then throw the medium on the blood ritual.

"My arcane form is different from the composition of this world, so Odin's concealment effect is also affected to a certain extent."

Activating the spell in front of him, Ron said to Freya beside him: "Stand up."

"Ok?"

Freya expressed doubts - it was not a good thing to stand on the ritual base of an unknown foreign god. Especially like now, if Ron had some bad intentions, she might not even be able to resist.

"Medium." Ron said, "In addition to determining the spell, we also need to determine Balder's coordinates to prevent Odin from jumping off the wall and removing the spell to another area to interfere with vision."

"I see." Hearing this, Freya stood in the center of the spell. During the process, she also observed the spells under her feet. Although the bases of these spells seemed to be similar, basically a bunch of geometric shapes piled on top of each other, Freya could feel that the mysterious energy form in them was different from any spell she knew.

Just like what Freya felt when she first met Ron - at that time, Ron had not yet ascended to godhood. Although he was powerful, he still did not have the high-level power of godhood. And at that time, Ron was already quite "difficult to kill". And now...

"I can't even feel if you're really alive."

Freya was a little emotional. Even if he came from a more distant foreign land, Ron's promotion speed was a bit too fast... Well, the same goes for Atreus. The brown bear he transformed into was not just an animal, but was in contact with the spirit of the earth...

But how old is he?
What kind of organization is the World Tree they are in... Freya felt a little sad when she recalled what Ron said before that the fate of this world had been liberated when Atreus joined.

It's amazing to have a system.

Thinking in her heart, Freya also asked: "Is it through the connection between mother and child as a medium?"

"Almost." Ron said, "But to be precise, it's your love for him. Mainly, I don't know how many sons you have. And now you from another world are also here, the connection between mother and son will be disturbed."

Hearing this, Queen Frigga smiled and waved to Freya.

In traditional Norse mythology, Freya is the mother of Balder, the god of light, and Hodr, the god of darkness, while Thor is actually born to Odin and a giantess. In Marvel, Thor is born to Frigga - of course, there are too many versions of Marvel. In addition to Queen Frigga, there are other origins. For example, the one in the Foundation Universe is related to Odin's old lover, but from Ron's perception, he is indeed the biological son of Queen Frigga.

In short, it is a Western myth after all, so it is normal for the relationship to be a bit complicated. This is history.

Apart from these kinship mediums, thoughts themselves are also a medium. Ron knew it before, but he couldn't operate it. Now, after completing the ascension, Ron more or less realized how to use the obsessions of these individuals to perform rituals.

Similar to the three sisters of fate in Northern Europe, they do not predict disasters, but predict the choices of human nature.

And now, the same principle applies. Through Freya's thoughts and love for Balder, Ron can feel the mysterious connection.

The spell was activated, and after sensing it for a moment, Ron showed a hint of surprise between his brows.

"What's wrong?" Freya seemed a little curious after noticing Ron's expression.

"Badur is still alive." Ron said, "and right under our feet."

"Under our feet? What do you mean?!"

Freya seemed a little excited.

Ron stretched out his hand to signal Freya to calm down, and then said: "Baldur is hidden, but not somewhere in the Nine Realms, but in the heart of the World Tree... No wonder this time Fenrir's Winter will also affect Asgard."

Ron said suspiciously, "Odin must have done it on purpose. Fenrir's Winter begins to spread from the heart of the tree at the root. The power of the World Tree itself will also form an uncontrollable storm in the process. In this way, whether it is Midgard, Asgard, or even other realms, they will be affected by Fenrir's Winter."

"But...why would he do that?"

Although it was a question, there was already a chill in Ron's eyes.

Let doomsday spread to the entire world, causing an overall disaster and leading to irreversible destruction... Why does this approach seem so familiar?
