You and me under the world tree

Although she didn't know why, this sight did make her feel uncomfortable.

This kind of discomfort made her not quite sure whether it was the ram warrior who really had malicious intentions, or whether she felt uncomfortable about it in her heart.

However, the word retreat has never been in Sluder's dictionary.So soon, she stared back directly following the line of sight.

"Don't look at me like that."

After hesitating for a moment, Dietrich spoke.

"If you want your friend to be safe and sound, then you can't do anything to me. No matter how I say it, I'm still his partner."

There is actually nothing wrong with what Her Royal Highness said.

On the one hand, she emphasized that Brunhild is now in Hodder's hands, and with Hodder's personality, if something really goes wrong, he would never mind using Brunhild as a bargaining chip.

At the same time, she also emphasized her own importance.

In other words, Dietrich Dietermadottir and Brunhilde are equal in terms of status.

If she doesn't do anything, and when Hodder returns after exploring the castle, everyone can leave in peace.

But Dietrich actually didn't expect that at this moment, the unkindness revealed in the eyes of the goddess became more and more intense.

For a moment, Dietrich herself felt a little confused.

"Humph……"

In the end, the Storm Goddess did not speak.

She just turned around quickly, then waved her hand.

A unique power emanates from her body - it's magic!

And with her movements, the runes that had been engraved inside quickly flickered on the originally frozen castle wall.

Immediately afterwards, the originally open castle gate was quickly closed.

After seeing this scene, Dietrich couldn't help narrowing her eyes.

That's why she stayed here, because just as she guessed, Valkyrie's castle was never ordinary, who knows what kind of depiction it had inside when it was built?

If Slude is allowed to act alone, then the problem will be serious!

But at this moment, more importantly, Slude closed the gate of the castle.

What does she want to do?

Suddenly having a bad premonition, Dietrich took two steps back, and then became alert again.

But at this moment, the Storm Goddess didn't seem to care about the princess anymore, she just walked towards the edge of the crystal coffin.

There was a piece of torn armor.

Although a little hesitant, the Valkyrie still picked up the fragments, and then carefully examined the inside of the armor, as if she wanted to decipher the runes inside the armor.

Chapter 76: To be a god, you must have a backbone

It may be because the Thunder Valkyrie has closed the gate of the castle. For a while, there is no other color in the frozen front hall.

Looking around, the tooth-piercing icy feeling came directly to the surface.

However, what really caused this 'coldness' was not the environment completely frozen by frost and fog.

In fact, it was the two women standing there that really caused the coldness.

Since the sage took the mistress of this castle who had just awakened to the deeper palace, they haven't spoken any more.

Dietrich just looked around, carefully examining the flickering runes around the hall with her eyes.

Because of the relationship of being frozen before, and the fact that those runes didn't work, neither she nor Huo De could decipher the engraving on it.

Because these runes can be left alone without being fully activated, neither she nor Hodder placed them.

After all, at that time, Brunhilde was the most important person, and compared to her, the runes inscribed in the Valkyrie's hall can be temporarily ignored.

In fact, in their original plan, if the gods or their emissaries did not arrive before then, they would spend time breaking the ice around them and carefully studying the carvings inside the temples. , Make sure that you will not be overshadowed by someone later.

But now it seems that there is no difference in terms of results.

Taking a cursory glance at the restarted runes shining brightly under the thin layer of ice, Dietrich easily recognized the content depicted by those runes.

To put it bluntly, it is very simple. Some of these runes play the most basic but also the most critical protective role.

As long as the magic is still in effect, the castle will not decay with the years, let alone be damaged.

As for the other part of the runes is also very practical.

There is no offensive mechanism, no traps, but very simple 'control'.

Just like Slude did before, she can control the nearby gate from standing still.

If there were to be a 'trap', it would probably be the armor and weapons that were also frozen.

Although they are empty inside, they seem to be able to move as long as they are ordered.

Moreover, flames can theoretically rise above the ground.

But the position of the flame...

Looking at the shimmering runes on the ground of the palace, but not fully activated, Dietrich couldn't help raising her brows.

In fact, at first she thought it was some kind of flame trap, for example, if people stepped into it, it would turn into coke or something.

But that doesn't seem to be the case now, because that location seems to be no different from a human palace.

But the only difference is that the palaces of lords and kings will pile up all kinds of firewood and set up barbecue grills in advance.

That's right, in terms of the scale of the flames, it reminded Dietrich of the kind of racks in her own palace that were specially used for banquet barbecues.

But after all, there is magic, and it is completely different from the human royal family. Magic has always been necessary for Valkyrie.

So they don't need firewood at all.

"It's really... a place full of life." She whispered.

This is her sigh from the heart, and there is no way to restrain it.

After all, even she has some romantic thoughts.

No, maybe this kind of thinking should not be called romantic, just a little bit of envy.

She has also heard the legend of the Valkyrie, no matter what the real situation is, but in the legend, the Valkyrie is an organization of female warriors governed by the gods, and there is no clear distinction between high and low status.

And just looking at these runes, Dietrich felt that she could imagine what it was like in its heyday.

Although the castle above the Schindal Peak and the outer courtyard belong to Brunhilde, it is impossible for Brunhilde to live here alone.

She'll have her own friends too...

No matter what their status is—maybe most of them are girls, they will all live here, sharing oily barbecue with friends while admiring Brunhilde's own unique aesthetic.

Thinking of this, Dietrich took another look at the layout here.

This is a very fortress-style palace. The armor and weapons placed around it all prove that the former Valkyrie was definitely a warlike person.

Moreover, compared to others, her style is actually a little more conservative.

"Um……"

Looking at the armor and weapons on display, Dietrich inadvertently glanced at Slude again.

In fact, the Storm Goddess is also quite conservatively dressed.

Compared with the women Dietrich had seen following the Valkyrie who seemed to be called Sigrun and the women around her, she could be said to have wrapped her whole body tightly.

However, her strictness was different from Brunhilde's.

Brunhilde obviously prefers heavy armor. Judging from the armor she collected and displayed here and the sealed armor in the crystal coffin before, her usual clothes should not be considered light.

And Slude's clothes are more 'relaxed'.

Although apart from her face, she has no exposed skin all over her body, but she always has a different kind of allure.

Even though Dietrich was a girl, she really thought so.

Thinking about it carefully, just looking at Brunhilde's performance after waking up, it's hard for Dietrich to imagine that she prefers all kinds of heavy armor.

Not to mention whether her former wings could withstand the heavy armor and helmet, just that kind of performance...it's hard to imagine.

"Ok?"

And at this moment, Dietrich suddenly felt something was wrong.

This feeling flashed in her heart, and what followed was a lingering sense of disobedience.

What is wrong?

At this moment, she suddenly froze.

And her dumbfounded appearance couldn't help but make the Storm Goddess, who was reading the runes, uncomfortable.

"Is there anything you would like to teach?"

"what……"

Just when Dietrich came back to her senses, she saw the Storm Goddess staring at her, and there was still a lingering hostility and unkindness in that look.

"No, nothing."

Dietrich also didn't want to share the untraceable feeling in her heart with the real goddess in front of her.

So, she just shook her head calmly.

However, she felt that she must find a reason, so she took out the parchment again.

"I'm tired of seeing you, so I'll give you this thing. This is the result of our interpretation."

She just waved the parchment in her hand.

"The interpretation of the runes is all on top."

Just as Dietrich said this, the Storm Goddess just glanced at her.

Immediately afterwards, she responded stiffly:

"No need."

Even though Dietrich had already extended her hand, she didn't mean to appreciate it.

Maybe it's not trusting yourself?

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe me, but Hodder wrote it."

'boom'

In an instant, Dietrich felt a huge force begin to circulate.

It's a storm!

And just before she confirmed whether the storm was so-called divine power or magic, that force had already tore the parchment out of her hand.

Immediately afterwards, it fell into Slude's hands.

Dietrich couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable with the goddess' rough attitude.

"As expected of a god, you acted so recklessly... I thought you had some backbone."

Chapter 77: At that time...

Of course, there was a reason for Dietrich's displeasure, because she never liked the reckless behavior displayed by those aloof beings.

And Slude's previous behavior naturally made her feel strongly uncomfortable.

In fact, this is a very simple thing, and it is also a very simple thinking logic:

I can give it to you, but you must not steal it.

Because the so-called giving is because the person involved is generous and she is in a good mood, there is no necessary relationship at all, and there is no one who owes the other.

In this case, it was fine for Slude to refuse.

This only meant that she herself was extremely vigilant and dismissed the parchment given to her by the 'stranger', Dietrich.

And from the side, it can probably prove that her own magic level is not weak.
