Chapter 860 Goodbye Heimdall
Putting aside the two little ones' mission to find the mask, Odin sent Heimdall to Helheim mainly for another matter.

Heimdall is coming to this underworld to find some very special material to build a special "prison".

This prison will be used to imprison the moon.

No need for quotes, what Odin and Heimdall wanted to imprison was the real moon.

Of course, the moon in the Nine Realms does not refer to the moon in the real sky. The concepts and forms of existence of the sun, moon, and stars are different in different worlds, but imprisoning the moon is still a miracle that only a god-level being can accomplish.

The reason for this is also due to the prophecy in Norse mythology, but the specifics are complicated.

Speaking of them, we must mention Skul and Hatti, those two giant wolves that can traverse the sky.

In Norse mythology, these two giant wolves are the children of Fenrir. One chases the sun, and the other chases the moon. Their constant pursuit is the key to the movement of the sun and moon and the alternation of day and night.

However, if they ever catch up with the sun and the moon, then Ragnarok will follow.

Li You wasn't very familiar with the original Norse mythology, and he didn't know if the two giant wolves chasing the sun and moon were constantly closing the distance and would eventually catch their prey.

In any case, in the story of Ares V, Odin sent Heimdall to Helheim, where he found some special material and must have had the dwarves make a special little box to put the moon inside.

In this way, Hati would never be able to catch up with the moon, and Ragnarok would never come... Well, this is impossible to confirm at all. Li You guessed that this was just one of Odin's many attempts to prevent Ragnarok.

In the new God of War universe, Skul and Hatti reside in Vanaheim. In order to capture the moon, Odin sent his army back to Vanaheim—Freya's homeland—causing renewed chaos there.

Heimdall went to Vanaheim to take charge at that time, only to be killed by Kratos.

This is how Heimdall died in the original game, but now, Li You is going to arrange a different way for him.

Why don't you just skip Vanaheim and die in the underworld? You'll save yourself a lot of trouble. Isn't that better?

However, Li You was quite interested in the material Heimdall was looking for, which, after processing, could even seal the moon.

So at this moment, Li You, along with his companion V, also arrived in Helheim.

Yuzu and Edge traveled to another country. Now, with the advanced technologies of Brock and Sindri, traveling between countries has become very easy.

Moreover, Li You's understanding of spatial power has also made a leap forward. He can move flexibly even using his own strength, although using the Mystic Gate is more effortless.

When the two stepped out of the portal, they found themselves in another area of ​​Helheim that they had never set foot in before.

This area is much deeper than the one Li You had previously set foot in, and it has already crossed the Bridge of the Cursed that Freya had repeatedly warned against crossing.

The other end of the Bridge of the Cursed is an area entirely belonging to the dead, and no living person can set foot there.

Odin cast buff spells on Atreus and the others to ward off the cold and the judgment imposed upon them by the rules of the realm.

But Li You seemed oblivious to all of this, and Helheim himself also seemed completely unaware of his and V's arrival, making no reaction whatsoever.

The area is designed to resemble a frozen city, and Li You and his group are located in a huge port.

If you look in another direction, you will see the enormous Herasvalg, the current ruler of the underworld. At this moment, Li You is so close that he could easily stand in front of him and try to talk to him.

However, Li You had neither a personal relationship nor any grudges with this giant, so he had no intention of visiting him.

His mind is now focused on Heimdall.

At the edge of the port prepared for the dead, atop a massive ice pillar, Li You and V gazed down at Heimdall, who was walking through the city of the dead.

Although surrounded by the aura of death, and Heimdall was walking alone in this dead city, his attitude remained unchanged. His casualness, arrogance, and disdain were evident even in his walking posture.

However, Heimdall already possessed many divine qualities, making him a powerful god even in Asgard.

With his "eagle eyes" and "keen ears," he really doesn't need to pretend to be nervous.

For example, right now, he was walking around casually, but the next moment he suddenly turned around without warning and looked in the direction of Li You and V!
However, even after he looked closely several times, he found nothing.

A strange look appeared on Heimdall's face: "An illusion?"

For him, this was a word he almost completely avoided.

However, after thinking about it, he didn't seem to take it to heart and turned around to continue walking forward.

In the direction he had just been looking, Li You and V were still standing atop that tall stone pillar, unmoved.

V was somewhat surprised: "Doesn't this guy have eyes that can see through everything? You hid it with a simple invisibility move?"

Li You smiled, revealing the Supreme Distant Staff in his hand: "Of course, it wasn't just through invisibility magic. I layered three different invisibility spells, and then used divine power to fold space, concealing all traces of our presence, so that this guy could ignore us."

"And it can only be done at this distance. If we get any closer, he will still see us, or at least notice something is wrong."

For Li You now, most magic, miracles, prayers, spells... in short, any spells he has ever learned and mastered in the past can be easily cast with ease, and the effects are even stronger than before.

But since the person they were monitoring and tracking was Heimdall, Li You naturally wouldn't be careless and deliberately took out his staff.

With the blessing of the Supreme Distant Staff, and based on Li You's current understanding of power, they were able to deceive the Aesir god who possessed eyes and ears that could see into people's hearts.

Heimdall did not notice the two people following him and continued on his way alone.

Li You and V were somewhat surprised to find that the place he was going to was none other than the high platform where Heraswalg was located.

Just in case, Li You didn't approach, but only kept an eye on things from a distance.

Then the two saw Heimdall still arrogantly talking to Herasvalg, the lord of the underworld.

In fact, Heimdall was the only one talking from beginning to end, while Hrascwalg communicated with him in a different way.

Even from a distance, it's easy to tell that Heimdall's attitude is unfriendly, and even seems to be threatening the lord of the underworld.

Threatening the master of Helheim is something Li You wouldn't easily do, even with his current strength. The major gods of Norse mythology are all quite powerful, with little difference in strength between them. However, one thing clearly distinguishes and determines the strength of the gods: the authority they wield.

Just as the land of Northern Europe strongly suppresses foreign divine power, it also significantly amplifies the power of its native gods. In this land, gods who possess special abilities have the power to suppress other gods.

For example, if Herasvalg is the current ruler of the Underworld, then he holds most of the power in Helheim. As long as he is in the Underworld, it is his territory, and the combat power he can exert is much stronger than outside the Underworld.

In other words, the underworld is essentially His home turf.

Although Heimdall possessed many divine powers, Li You, who had fought him more than once, knew very well that his direct combat strength was really just so-so.

Heimdall is indeed a formidable opponent, but this is mainly due to his ability to read minds. Even gods stronger than him would find it difficult to suppress him. However, conversely, if you are strong enough, Heimdall will not pose a significant threat to you.

Therefore, at this moment, although Heimdall himself is fearless, the only trump card he can use to threaten Herasvalg is Odin, who is standing behind him.

Heimdall negotiated with Herasvalg for some time, and in the end, it seems that the lord of the underworld chose to concede.

Its massive body trembled slightly, it raised the head of the giant bird, and then spat out a piece of ore that exuded an extremely heavy, icy aura.

Heimdall's eyes lit up at the sight, and he immediately reached out, his divine power engulfing the ore and drawing it into his hand.

“That’s right. You don’t want to disobey the will of the Father of the Gods, do you?”

Heimdall chuckled arrogantly and put the special ore into his magic pocket.

"You can just stay here and watch the dead, that way the Father of the Gods won't notice you. I need to go back and report to the Father of the Gods—oh, and I also need to find those two brats."

With that thought, Heimdall scoffed and turned to leave.

Behind him, Heraswalg stared at his back with his eerie eyes, but in the end he did nothing, only flapped his wings and closed his eyes.

Although He is the ruler of the underworld, He still cannot refuse the request that Odin personally conveyed through Heimdall.

Even though Heimdall was despicable, Odin couldn't choose to attack him. Otherwise, Odin might have actually sent the entire army of Heroes, or even the infamous god of thunder, here.

Fortunately, this was not a big deal for Heraswalg. He closed his eyes, intending to drift back into a light sleep.

However, at that moment, Heraswalg suddenly heard a deafening explosion coming from the direction of the dock not far away!

Even He was startled by the sound and turned to look, only to see a scene He could not have imagined.

Without a doubt, the sounds of their battle were coming from Li You and his companion, and Heimdall.

……

"boom--!!"

A massive lava ball crashed down, melting a large patch of ice beneath Heimdall's feet, along with the ground itself. However, Heimdall reacted swiftly, dodging the lava ball before it hit the ground and avoiding any impact.

He suddenly turned his head and looked in a specific direction. This time, he had activated his divine power: "...Come out, stop hiding."

In that direction, Li You stopped hiding and appeared on the top of a nearby building, looking at Heimdall: "Heh, long time no see."

Upon seeing him, Heimdall's gaze sharpened: "It's you?"

Li You smiled and said, "Is it strange? Haven't you always wanted to find me?"

Heimdall sneered upon hearing this: "Yes, I really have been looking for you. I didn't expect you to deliver yourself to me."

"Since that's the case, I suppose you've already prepared yourself mentally?"

During the last escape from Asgard, Li You used the fact that the android teardrop could not be read to suppress Heimdall and even stomped his face on the ground (literally).

For Heimdall, this humiliation, this deep-seated hatred, was utterly irreconcilable.

After receiving confirmation from Odin that Li You was not dead, he really wanted to settle accounts with Li You.

However, his fervor for Odin outweighed his hatred, so he continued to fulfill his duty of guarding the Rainbow Bridge and did not leave Asgard.

Heimdall never expected to encounter Li You when he came out to carry out the mission given to him by Odin.

Given that, how could he possibly miss this opportunity?

With a clang, Heimdall drew his sword Hofdr without hesitation, no longer concealing his emotions, and glared at Li You with eyes blazing with fury: "You've come at the right time, you've come at the right time!"

"Don't worry, I will definitely not let you die a good death. I will torture your body, dismember your hands and feet, and then lock your soul in a cage to suffer eternal torment!"

Li You was amused by him: "You're really confident. Did Odin give you some new trump card? I'd like to see it."

"By the way, could you tell me what kind of ore you just got from Heraswalg?"
"You know, I've been planning to make myself a set of armor recently, but I'm missing some key materials. I feel like that piece of ore is just what I need."

Heimdall was taken aback by these words, then laughed angrily: "Fine! If you want it, then come and take it yourself!"

"Then I won't be polite."

Li You nodded, then vanished from his spot in a flash.

Even with Heimdall's keen eyesight and hearing, he was immediately stunned, because Li You was already in front of him, exceeding his reaction limit!
"Boom——!!"

Li You threw a punch without any mercy, which landed heavily on Heimdall's stomach!

Odin's son and fanatic was immediately blasted away by the immense force that could tear the void apart. He crashed through countless frozen stone pillars and buildings in mid-air before flying towards the outer reaches of the River Styx in the distance!
The commotion that Heraswalg had heard earlier came from here.

Without hesitation, Li You stepped into the air and rose into the air, chasing after the direction in which Heimdall had been blasted away.

"Leave me my ore!"
