Chapter 890 Breaking Through the Walls of Harindor
The sword of destruction fell, and a deafening roar shook the entire Asgard, sending storms, dust, and lava from the sword flying in all directions.

Even a god couldn't immediately see the scene at the center of the impact.

Only when the storm and dust finally dissipated did everyone see that, under Ragnarok's sword, the war weapons that were originally neatly arranged and whose shields were operating at full power on the walls of Halidor had been completely wiped out!
As for Odin, the father of the gods, he has long since disappeared.

This result terrified the Asgardians, yet it was also entirely unexpected.

Even though those weapons of war were the pinnacle of dwarven craftsmanship, and even Thor struggled to break through their fully extended shields, they could only meet one fate before the overwhelming destructive power of Ragnarok.

What's more surprising is that while Ragnarok's attack completely destroyed Odin's trump card, it didn't cause much damage to the Wall of Harindor below it.

Or to be more precise, even after the Wall of Harindor withstood this blow, it only trembled a few times, with several large fragments falling and crashing down onto the battlefield below. But it was still a long way from collapsing and crumbling.

At this moment, Li You, inside the core of Ragnarok, also narrowed his eyes and looked at the Wall of Halidor in front of him.

When he swung his sword just now, he clearly felt that all the obstacles beneath it were resisting with surprisingly little resistance. Whether it was Odin's war weapon or the Wall of Harindor, they should have been completely shattered by his sword.

However, when the Sword of Destruction easily shattered the row of war weapons and landed on the Wall of Harindor, it was surprisingly deflected slightly by the explosion of the war weapons. The recoil even caused Li You to momentarily lose control of Ragnarok, resulting in the sword's power not fully landing on the Wall of Harindor, which allowed it to remain intact.

Li You frowned slightly, sensing something was amiss. Given his level of mastery, he had already achieved a high level of control over Ragnarok, making such a mistake impossible.

He recalled carefully and then realized that when the sword of destruction fell, a strange force, both familiar and unfamiliar, and extremely difficult to detect, emerged from the void and interfered with his actions in a way that he could not understand. This was the fundamental reason why the Wall of Harindor was not shattered by a single sword strike.

The giant sword bounced back. Li You did not rush to control Ragnarok to launch another attack. Instead, he paused for a moment, feeling the force of the recoil.

That power was not concentrated within the city walls, nor was it even a tangible energy; rather, it was ethereal, elusive, and its manner of exertion was extremely strange.

If Li You hadn't already crossed the Gate of God, he would have had a hard time even noticing that reversing force.

"...Is it, once again, the power of fate?"

Li You recognized the source of that familiar feeling. It was a force from the river of fate that he had encountered before, but which he had been unable to resist.

He immediately realized that, according to the original destiny, the Wall of Harindor would indeed be destroyed, but not at this time, nor by Ragnarok. Rather, it would be destroyed when the time was right, through the cracks left by Harindor himself.

The logic behind it is indeed strange, but fate is such an inexplicable thing.

However, Li You's current knowledge and understanding of the world's rules are far beyond what he used to have. Moreover, he has experienced the influence of various forces of fate in the borderlands and even in many other worlds.

Therefore, now, as he once again sensed the influence of the power of fate and experienced the feedback of resisting it, Li You suddenly had a sudden realization:
The so-called power of destiny can essentially be understood as a force in the current world that drives all things forward. It is a force formed by the interaction and influence of countless living beings and everything in the world.

On this point, we can borrow some of the ideas of the three goddesses of Norn: the future is not fixed; it is human choices that create the future they see.

The power of fate is similar, except that it is far greater than what the three goddesses of Norn can see or predict.

Generally speaking, no matter who it is, it is difficult to reverse the established course of fate in a world. Even a god like Odin, a supreme deity and a father of gods, cannot do it. That is why he was at a loss when faced with Ragnarok.

But Li You was an exception.

Only now did he realize that many of the tasks the system had assigned him were actually guiding him to fight against the forces of destiny in various worlds.

When Li You first transmigrated, he certainly didn't have such power. However, at that time, the system's protection shielded him from almost all the backlash of the power of fate and gave him corresponding enhancements. With these assistances, coupled with his own decisions and choices, he finally made it to where he is today.

But things are different now. Having mastered the body of Ragnarok and possessed the original creative power of the Nine Realms, Li You now has the ability to defy fate, even without relying on the system.

Therefore, even though Li You clearly felt the invisible influence of the power of fate and understood the key points, he showed no intention of backing down.

He knew that the weakness of the Wall of Harinder was the crack left by Harinder himself, and that the crack was behind the Tower of Asgard.

Freya once said that the prophecy told her that only Surtr knew how to exploit this weakness, which actually referred to Ragnarok, the creation of him and Simara, and could defeat it.

This is one way to break through Harindor's Wall.

As for the second method, it is likely based on the game's storyline, where Sindri or at least a dwarf uses a specially made tuning fork and sonic arrows to blast open the crack.

But Li You doesn't intend to use any of these methods.

At his will, Ragnarok raised his sword and looked toward the highest point of the Wall of Halidor.

Li You is determined to break through this wall!
In fact, he now possesses Ragnarok. Although it is not controlled by the consciousness of Surtur or Simara after their fusion, it still meets most of the conditions of fate. This means that when he attacks that rift, although he will encounter resistance from the power of fate, it will not be as intense.

However, Li You wanted to try to confront the power of fate head-on and see if he could fight against the river of fate with the creative power of Ragnarok!
So at this moment, everyone still fighting on the battlefield saw Ragnarok raise the giant sword high and then bring it down once again!
"boom--!!"

Another resounding boom echoed throughout Asgard, and the Wall of Harinder trembled violently. Fragments of varying sizes crumbled from the walls, but the walls themselves remained intact.

But Ragnarok didn't stop there, and the third sword fell immediately!
"Boom--!!"

The power of Ragnarok cannot be released indiscriminately, otherwise Asgard will be severely damaged. This divine body, born from the vessel of the Savior, is even stronger than the incomplete Ragnarok in the original game, but this has made Li You somewhat restrained.

But that's all in the past. Li You can now control the creative power that constantly flows within Ragnarok's body and condense it on his sword without it spreading. As long as Ragnarok doesn't completely enter Asgard and unleash its full power, the aftershocks won't damage the kingdom's structure.

Therefore, he can launch an attack with confidence.

"Boom! Boom! Boom—"

The sword of destruction continued to fall, and the walls of Harindor trembled incessantly. Although rocks kept falling off, the walls ultimately did not collapse.

But Li You could already sense that the power of destiny surrounding the wall had been almost completely exhausted, and the force that was subtly reversing his attack was becoming weaker and weaker.

Of course, the depletion of the power of fate is only temporary. Without a force strong enough to counter it, it will quickly recover, so vigilance is even more crucial now. Fortunately, the continuous flow of creative power from the core of Ragnarok gives Li You ample confidence. He doesn't need to worry about expending energy; he only needs to control this powerful energy and keep attacking!

So, after the Sword of Destruction was deflected once again, Ragnarok raised its head and let out a long, earth-shaking roar, its core radiating intense light!

An unprecedentedly powerful force erupted, forming a two-colored vortex around Him that resembled sparks of the world. However, He tightly bound this force to His side and ultimately merged it into the Sword of Destruction.

The power of Ragnarok is fully concentrated at this moment, and it is about to erupt!

The next moment, he raised the sword to the sides of his head with both hands and thrust it out with all his might!

"boom--!!!"

This time, the Wall of Harinder, which had already withstood attacks powerful enough to destroy Asgard more than once, finally could not hold on any longer and was pierced through by a single sword!
In that instant, not only did Li You hear the muffled sound of the city wall breaking, but he also vaguely heard a crisp cracking sound echoing in his ears. However, when he tried to catch it, it had vanished without a trace.

However, Li You knew that it wasn't an illusion, but rather that the thread of fate had been severed. Judging from the echo, it was probably a rather thick thread.

As for the impact of this, it is still unknown. Li You can only vaguely sense that it should not be a bad thing, because the several predetermined lines of fate of Ragnarok have been rewritten.

In other words, from this moment on, no one can predict the outcome of today's battle.

These thoughts only flashed through Li You's mind briefly; there were more pressing matters to attend to.

Li You manipulated Ragnarok to retract the giant sword, then grabbed the hole he had previously created with one hand, and with the other hand, he thrust the Sword of Destruction toward the original location of the rift!

This time it was much simpler. Without the protection of fate, the Wall of Harindor was nothing more than a taller, thicker stone wall before Ragnarok. Under Ragnarok's single strike, the cracks that Harindor had deliberately left open were instantly pierced through!
"Boom——!!"

……

The moment Li You, or rather Ragnarok, breached the walls of Halendoll, Kratos abruptly rose to his feet inside the Temple of Tyr. The others, such as Tyr, Atreus, and Frey, were also ready for battle.

The Wall of Harindor has been breached; it was the appointed time, and now it's their turn to appear.

Kratos's majestic voice resounded throughout the land: "On my command, all troops, attack!"

"Yes!!"

Meanwhile, in Gladesheim, within the walls of Harinder, the Father of the Gods stood in the sky on a bridge formed of rainbow light, gazing at the breached walls.

In the moments before the sword of destruction fell, he knew that the war machine he relied on as his trump card could not withstand this terrifying attack, and that the Wall of Harinder was about to meet its end.

So naturally he didn't stay in such a dangerous place, but returned to Gladsheim.

Asgard's last barrier was breached, and even the heroic warriors couldn't help but feel tense or panicked, but Odin showed no reaction and did not give them any new orders.

He simply allowed the heroic warriors to continue crossing the Rainbow Bridge back to the battlefield, delaying the advance of the Nine Realms Alliance, while he himself just watched and did nothing.

No one knows what Odin is thinking, especially now that the Allfather can be considered a lonely figure, with no capable person or god by his side.

Odin remained calm. He stood on the Rainbow Bridge, looking at the two huge holes that had been breached in the city wall, through which the hideous Night Demons were pouring in.

“…The moment has finally come,” Odin murmured to himself. “In the end, it was the only way.”

As he spoke, he turned around, no longer looking at the Night Demon Sea surging in like a tide through the hole in the Wall of Harindor, and turned to fall towards the large wooden house below.

Meanwhile, Thor's daughter, Slud, was standing in the open space in front of the large wooden house, watching Ragnarok's sword of destruction slowly withdraw from the second hole in the wall of Harindor.

The overwhelming power made her, who had always been proud of her status as the daughter of Thor with great divine power, feel like an ant, and her body and mind couldn't help but tremble.

"That is... Ragnarok."

Despite her fear, Slud gripped the iron bar tightly and gritted her teeth: "I can't be afraid... Father is injured, Mother isn't good at fighting, and the others aren't here. I have to protect them, as well as Grandfather's study and our home!"

Slud made up her mind that when those demonic rebels came, she would smash all the ones in the front to death, and she would never let her parents and grandfather be disgraced!
But at that moment, a pair of warm hands wrapped around her shoulders from behind. Slud turned around in surprise and saw her mother walking out.

"Mother? Why are you out here? It's dangerous out there!"

Sif looked at her daughter with tenderness in her eyes, yet deep worry lurking beneath, and said, "I know... but it's Ragnarok now, and danger lurks everywhere."

"Let's not talk about that. You go back inside right now and don't come out no matter what happens!"

Slud asked, puzzled, "...Mother?"

Sif didn't explain further, and grabbed Slud's hand to take her back, but it was too late.

Because an aged voice had already echoed above the large wooden house:

"—Sol! Come out and see me!"

“Grandfather?” Slud looked up and saw that the person descending on the Rainbow Bridge was none other than her grandfather Odin, but the cold expression on his face made Slud feel completely unfamiliar with him.

Odin, who descended from the sky, didn't even glance at her and Sif; he just stared at the door of the large wooden house.

Then, with a creak, her father, Saul, pushed open the door and came out. His steps were steady, his expression solemn. Even his past dejection had vanished, not to mention that he looked no more seriously injured.

Slud felt confused: What exactly was going on?
Thor glanced at her and Sif before turning back to face Odin and said in a deep voice, "So it has come to this... Father."
