Survival in the game world begins with Biochemical 2

Chapter 835 Facing Genna
The moment the four-legged beast was annihilated, the radiance of the Hall of Heroes descended from the sky, bathing Li You in its glow.

At the same moment, the surrounding scenery faded and froze, like a still frame in a movie, never to move again.

From the radiance, Li You clearly sensed the will of the Hall of Heroes—the trial in the lower realm had been completed, and he could now proceed to the upper realm.

At this point, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The trials Valhalla presented to him were different from those in the game with Kratos. In addition to helping him master the abilities he already possessed but was not yet proficient in, it seemed they also wanted to help him adjust his mindset.

Li You felt that the Hall of Heroes was helping him recall the past, and how to make good use of all available resources to overcome obstacles when he didn't yet have enough power.

However, this is just speculation. Regardless of Valhalla's ideas, as long as it helps him find the path to God, he can accept it.

At least by simply passing through the lower realm, he had already become much more proficient in controlling his power.

So although the process was a little uncomfortable, Li You was actually more looking forward to the Upper Realm.

He touched the golden-black pillar of light falling from the sky above Valhalla, and was immediately swept into it, teleported to the next trial world.

……

Meanwhile, outside Valhalla.

Genna and her two sisters are diligently guarding the black sand island.

Besides the three of them, Odin later sent many ordinary heroic warriors to assist them, so the island was heavily guarded at this time.

Gena and her two companions stood guard outside the gate, while on the small island, heroic warriors patrolled back and forth, with no one letting their guard down.

It's probably because everyone who comes here knows that the Father of the Gods takes the situation here very seriously, so no one dares to neglect their duties.

At the same time, they didn't really think anyone would dare to come and cause trouble; the security here was comparable to Odin's secret prison.

Some time ago, someone caused a disturbance in Gladesheim, and it is said that an important fugitive escaped from the secret prison. But such things only happen once every few centuries. How often does something like that happen?

However, today, a group of fools that the heroic warriors thought were impossible have stormed the island.

"Buzz-"

On the black sand beach, the sound of wind breaking echoed, and the heroic warrior at the back of the patrol trembled and fell to the ground.

The sound of him falling attracted the attention of his teammates in front, but as soon as they turned their heads, several magical arrows and Valkyrie feathers flew over and knocked them down as well!
Seeing that things were not going well, the last patrol leader tried to escape and shouted a warning, but a thick vine that emerged from the ground grabbed her and covered her mouth tightly.

Then, two flaming blades flew in, one piercing her head and the other her heart, piercing her body.

As the twin swords were withdrawn, the squad leader's body collapsed to the ground.

The patrol was wiped out without even a warning being issued.

Then, the group that had secretly attacked them also appeared on the beach.

Needless to say, Kratos was the leader. Mimir hung at his waist, and beside him stood Atreus, who had grown a bit and now had a more serious look, giving him the air of a warrior.

Coming up from the other side of the beach were Valkyrie Queen Sigriun, and four other Valkyries including Hilde, who had previously escaped from the island.

Of course, Freya was also among the Valkyries' group, but she stayed as far out of Kratos's sight as possible and did not have any contact with him.

Although in this world, Freya, through Li You's groundwork and Tyr's persuasion, has recognized who she should seek revenge against and is not directing her anger at Kratos and Li You, seeing the two of them still reminds Freya of the tragic death of her son.

So this time, although she had to cooperate with Kratos to rescue Tyr (and Li You along the way), Freya still didn't want to have any contact with him.

Kratos understood Freya's feelings, and to be considerate of her emotions, he instructed Atreus to stay out of Freya's sight as much as possible.

Therefore, the relatively neutral Valkyries became the barrier between them, and they had to pass messages between each other when necessary, which made the Valkyries feel very strange.

Fortunately, Siegrun had anticipated this situation before she arrived, so she perfectly played the role of a middleman, blocking the line of sight and relaying messages.

"...These heroic warrior patrols will complete their patrols within a certain time and then change shifts. During their patrols, they will also encounter another team."

At this moment, Sigriun was analyzing for Kratos, "These are the rules I set so that the administrators can detect anomalies as quickly as possible when something happens. If they train these new Heroic Spirits strictly according to my original requirements, then we only have a little reaction time left."

Freya had a general understanding of this and didn't say much, while Kratos nodded: "Sigraune, you are an excellent leader."

"Then what do you think we should do?" Sigrun had also heard Mimir talk about Kratos's glorious deeds, and now subconsciously asked him for his opinion.

Kratos stretched out his hand, and the Leviathan Axe flew back into his grasp. He then said, "Since there's still a patrol, let's take care of them too, and then head straight for the gates of Valhalla."

Mimir laughed: "Ha! Just as I thought, brother!"

Despite their complaints, Sigurd and the others had no objections to Kratos's tactics.

In small-scale battles, following the decisions of this former Greek god of war and Spartan general would likely be foolproof, especially since Kratos's plan was indeed to the core of the problem.

So, the group immediately followed the route predicted by Sigrun and lay in ambush. When the second patrol team appeared, they did not hesitate to move out and kill them!

Everything went smoothly. After taking down the two patrols, the defending side should be unable to call for more reinforcements from Asgard for the time being—except for the Valkyries on the other side of the gate.

Therefore, Kratos immediately said, "Let's go! Charge straight for the gate and take care of those Valkyries!"

At his command, the Valkyries behind Sigurd obeyed without question. Hilde, Gendal, and the other three spread their wings and took flight, soaring straight towards the gates of Valhalla!
Rist and Mister stood guard nearby.

The two newly appointed Valkyries were clearly caught off guard by the sudden attack.

Although their combat abilities met the requirements of a Valkyrie, they had never been promoted to a full-fledged Valkyrie in the past. The reason was not that Sigrun deliberately suppressed them, but that the two of them still had shortcomings, such as experience and mentality.

So at this moment, facing a sudden attack from seniors who outnumbered them by a factor of two and were well-coordinated and experienced, Rist and Mister, despite their all-out resistance, were suppressed in the blink of an eye.

Of course, if Genna, who was guarding the gate, couldn't notice such a commotion in the sky, then her eyes and ears might as well be donated. Genna looked up at the six Valkyries fighting in the air, and her eyes darkened.

"...It's you? You're back again."

She murmured to herself, "Who brought you back? Who gave you the courage and confidence to defy the Father of the Gods? It can only be those two people."

"……madness."

After she finished speaking, her gaze turned to the road directly opposite the gate of Valhalla.

At the same moment she looked over, four figures appeared at the corner of the road.

Kratos, Atreus, Sigriun, and Freya, who was at the very end.

"So you really came!" Genna shouted. "You've come to ruin the Father of the Gods' grand plan for the common people, to betray the King of the Gods? And you even brought outsiders to this sacred island!"

"Sigurd, I thought you would have some sense, but I never expected that you would still choose to blindly follow that madwoman beside you and become a traitor with her!"

Without a doubt, both Freya and Sigraun knew who Gna was. After all, Gna had been Freya's maid and Sigraun's companion and comrade-in-arms.

So when Freya and Freya saw her clearly blocking their way, they both frowned.

After a moment, Sigraun spoke first: "Genna, my sister. You don't need to..."

However, Genna waved her hand and said, "No need for further words! Your association with that traitor and your defiance of the Father of the Gods are enough to warrant judgment!"

"Sigurd! You are no longer the Queen of the Valkyries. I will take your place and lead the newborn Valkyries to sweep away the rebels for the Father of the Gods!"

Sigriun's brows furrowed beneath her mask: "Purge the rebels? Do you know what you're saying? That's not a Valkyrie's duty!"

Freya couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward, saying, "Father of the Gods? Rebel? Odin banished me, raised my child into a volatile and easily angered killer, and then used him until the very end, disregarding his life!"

"Does such a person deserve to be called the Father of the Gods? Does he deserve to rule the entire Nine Realms?"

But Ge Na just sneered: "He's not worthy, so are you? You're just a woman who only knows how to play the victim, you never look for problems within yourself!"

Staring coldly at Freya, Gna sneered and said, "You always blame others for your suffering, as if you've never made a choice in your own destiny."

“Your brother abandoned you because of his selfishness, not because of your domineering and controlling nature; you were banished from your own domain because of your wicked husband, not because your plots behind his back were exposed.”

Ignoring Freya's increasingly pale face, Genna continued speaking, sentence by sentence:

"...Your son was unjustly murdered because of two obsessed foreigners and Odin who used him, not because you drove your son mad!"

These words struck Freya like a hammer blow, leaving her teetering on the brink of collapse.

And Genna wasn't finished yet. Looking at Freya's expression, her voice grew even colder: "I imagine that after I kill you, you'll tell those in Helheim who are willing to listen to your nonsense that it was your former maid who betrayed you, not because you deserved it? How ridiculous! You truly make me feel pathetic!"

After hearing her words, Freya's face completely lost its color.

She never imagined that her former maid would view her in this way.

Gna's sharp words shattered Freya's last layer of concealment, forcing her to confront the most painful reality—Badr's death was also inextricably linked to her, his mother.

Sigrun immediately flew into a rage: "Enough! She is our queen. What meaning do your words have, given that they are merely conclusions drawn from your biased perspective!"

Genna didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said, but coldly replied, "You choose to believe what you want to believe, which is why you obey this madman's orders. If you can't understand, then you can think of me as the same as you, except that I believe in Odin, the Allfather."

"The final outcome will prove who was right, you or me!"

Genna's attitude towards Sigraune was fairly good, a stark contrast to Freya's. Strictly speaking, Genna was Sigraune's contemporary, or semi-junior, and the two had a fairly good relationship in the past.

But now, the two have reached a point where they must resort to violence.

Sigrun and Gna both knew that a battle was inevitable.

...In fact, Ge Na knew even better that the current situation was extremely unfavorable to her.

Leaving aside Sigriun, Gna knew very well that as a newly appointed Valkyrie Queen, her combat power was no match for hers.

In the sky above, Rist and Mist were also entangled and could be defeated at any moment. If Hilder and the others hadn't been reluctant to kill, it would probably have been over long ago.

Not to mention Kratos and his son, as well as Freya herself.

The moment they appeared, Genna knew something was wrong. That's why she provoked Freya, knowing her weakness and hoping to prevent her from causing trouble for the time being.

While what Genna said was indeed her true thought, she said it at this moment more to distract Freya.

Ge Na understood perfectly what words could hurt her, her former mistress, the most—it was always those closest to her who knew best how to wound a person's heart.

After their brief exchange, Freya lost all will to fight, and even the little boy with the bow had to help her to the side to rest. With two fewer fighters on the opposing side, Gna's chances naturally increased exponentially.

She still didn't expect to win, but at least this way she should be able to find an opportunity to send a message to warn the Father of the Gods.

So the next moment, Ge Na let out a long howl, flapped her wings and flew into the air, a long-handled halberd appearing in her hand.

"...Come on, Sigrun, and that foreign god! If you want to set foot in Valhalla and disrupt the great affairs of the Allfathers, you'll have to step over my dead body!"

She intended to buy herself some more time, but the next moment, Kratos charged forward, his twin blades of chaos slashing down with a burst of fire!

"ha--!!"
