Nordic: I Created a Forbidden Land for the Gods

Deep within Valhalla, not long after the thunderstorms that swept across the world, Brunhilde opened her eyes, a glint of light flashing in her star-like pupils.

"Father God... so the plan has indeed begun."

"In other words, the nine sea areas will soon become new battlefields. If we can hold back or even defeat the giants, it will be of great benefit to the entire God race."

"But ultimately it involves that original relic. Even if it's just a name, it's enough to make all sides of the giants take it seriously. If we're not careful, we might suffer the consequences."

Normally, this Valkyrie's elder sister always stayed deep in the palace and rarely went out, but even so, no god dared to underestimate her, after all, she always brought back huge spoils of war every time she went out.

Even just a few words of advice can greatly benefit the Valkyries, making them respect their elder sister even more.

Even such a figure cannot help but admire Odin's boldness and ruthlessness.

A single, open strategy broke the deadlock in the world war, giving their entire Protoss race a huge advantage on their path to becoming the world's ruler.

Of course, this is a risky move, and it could be self-destructive.

As a race that has survived for millions of years fighting against gods, the depth of the giants' heritage is unimaginable.

Even hybrids, who are relatively weak by nature, can give birth to beings that threaten the gods.

Such incidents occur in every battle, not to mention the casualties when fighting against pure-blooded Titans.

This is destined to be a tough battle!

Taking a deep breath, Brunhilde lowered her eyes, opened her fair and smooth hand, and a phantom map appeared out of thin air.

The information above is extremely detailed, covering most of the world, and is clearly a different method of exploration than that of the Giant Kings.

Brunhilde's expression turned very serious as she looked at the nine areas of the sea that had been specifically marked beforehand and which had indeed been hit by thunderstorms.

But when she saw that it was an icy sea, she suddenly fell silent, her expression revealing a complex mix of emotions.

"Seventh Sister, will she be alright?"

As the eldest sister, she was naturally "summoned" to attend the meeting that God the Father had arranged in advance.

Although she didn't have control and couldn't clearly hear Slud talking to the Father, she could still see that the other's spirit was clearly more ethereal than the other sisters.

And then there was the father's disappointed expression, all these traces made her unable to help but speculate and make connections.

"She must have been injured, and very seriously, and needs urgent rehabilitation."

"Was she injured while fighting the giants? In any case, given Seventh Sister's personality, she wouldn't accept a plan proposed by Father God if it were too cruel. She's probably still recovering."

"If this causes her to clash with the Father God, then she's probably still in crisis, and the situation isn't completely resolved..."

Brunhilde nodded, her white hair tucked into her handkerchief as she analyzed and judged.

"Judging from this, she is doomed to die in the upcoming battle."

"However, there is still a chance. The Father God sent down thunder and rain, which was originally intended to clear away traces of the relics and interfere with the enemy's judgment, but it can also provide some supplements for my little sister."

"If she borrows external lightning, she should be able to draw a 'communication' rune and travel to a market town, which would at least allow her to recover."

Brunhilde made this rather optimistic guess.

"Communication" is a general-purpose rune used by most races, but it is usually just fixed onto objects.

They can use it, but they don't understand the internal structure. When problems arise, they can't fix them, let alone write or create a new one.

But the Valkyries who have undergone "elite education" can do it.

Furthermore, with higher rune levels, it can not only transmit sound but also differentiate a portion of mental consciousness and "upload" it to specific spaces for communication.

This is a very advanced method. Even if giants like half-giants knew about it, they would not be able to participate. However, gods can use this method to exchange information and resources with each other, and even if they have never met, they can benefit from each other and grow together.

Of course, because it is "anonymous" and there are many factions among the gods, there will be no shortage of incidents of being tricked and being tricked.

Even within the same faction, it's possible for members to betray each other.

After all, sometimes the way gods do things isn't much different from that of pirates.

Therefore, after a long period of evolution, the market platform gradually emerged and was used as a guarantee.

"Because it is borrowed power, it is like a pen that is not used to, and it cannot write a truly high-level and powerful rune to solve the predicament, but a 'communication' should be able to do so."

"In this way, even if my sister encounters any trouble, she can find a solution in the market."

"And there's still some time before the battle truly begins, so she should still have enough time to make preparations now."

Brunhilde shook her head and sighed deeply, but there was nothing she could do to stop it.

All we can do is pray.

As expected of the eldest sister among the Valkyries, most things did indeed proceed as she had anticipated.

On Winterfell, the blonde Valkyrie raised her fingertips and traced runes in the air, each stroke as sharp as a hawk's hook.

As it fell, the surrounding air distorted, emanating a sense of clarity and transparency.

However, there was still a slight deviation in the actual implementation.

The moment the rune was successfully drawn, she did not use it on herself directly, but instead gently pushed it towards the mortal in front of her.

That Valkyrie elder sister probably never imagined that Slud would not use this opportunity for "self-salvation" for herself, but instead give it to a mortal.

Before any formal contact, the rune paused, hovering in front of Neil.

As if to confirm it once again, Slud asked:

"I can write this rune to level four even if my injuries worsen, and then I can go to the market to trade it myself."

"Although she is anonymous, some of the Valkyrie's mental characteristics can still be recognized, making her much safer and more secure."

"As a mortal, a level three rune would be enough to send you up, but that would require you to directly confront the spiritual bodies of numerous gods, which would be quite a burden. Are you sure you want to use it?"

Hearing Slud's words, Neil nodded decisively and said yes.

Then he looked at the runes in front of him. Although he didn't say anything, a fierce glint flashed across his face.

When he heard Slud explain the truth, his mind went blank, and he felt as if fate had once again treated him like a toy, cruelly tormenting him once more.

He came to the icy sea because he could no longer bear the war between gods and giants and wanted peace and quiet.

Although they encountered various difficulties and setbacks after arriving, they have managed to settle down on Winterfell.

Although the crisis of the evil dragon has not been completely resolved, there is still hope.

Once you get through this, you can live a peaceful life.

After that, it didn't matter how the gods and giants fought, as long as the blood didn't splatter on them.

But fate told him it wouldn't work.

Fate sent him into battle.

Although he could choose to leave and start over somewhere else, just like before, this time he was certain that the whole world was a chessboard for giants and gods.

As long as he's still up there, there's no way he can escape it.

Therefore, he must create a powerful territory that truly belongs to him and that no other being dares to easily offend.

What about gods?

He wanted the place he was in to be a forbidden zone for the gods!

"Although we could send Slud, an injured Valkyrie would probably be just like a wealthy person carrying a huge sum of money who is easily deceived; they would just get slaughtered if they went up there."

"Even if I can trade for things, at most they will only be medicines and methods that can just restore myself. They won't be of any benefit to my building up of a base."

"On the contrary, I possess a large number of runes, although they are not of high level, but they are diverse in type."

"This is my advantage in places where spiritual entities are used as a form of exchange, and where individual deities have a particular preference for certain runes."

"Perhaps we can gain even greater benefits than if Slud were in her full potential!"
