Hyper-Dimensional Player-Chapter 443 - 61: Tyr’s Onslaught

Sometimes Hegel is like a capricious child.

Duncan had just gone out to explore the map and gather intelligence. When he returned, he found Hegel betting on arm wrestling with someone. After winning, the other party was not satisfied, leading to a brawl. Initially not a big deal, but he smashed the dwarf market, and everyone was disarmed and detained by the dwarf guardians.

"I can’t believe you’re leaving me to clean up this mess."

Duncan took the spoils of the group and went to the innkeeper to pay a hefty fine, finally rescuing these seven simple-minded barbarians.

The brawl damaged things to the point they almost worked for nothing. If it weren’t for the gold they got from the ogre’s nest, they would be bankrupt.

"Thank you! Brother!"

Under the gaze of a burly dwarf with bronze skin, Hegel’s group was released. Hegel looked at Duncan before him with a slightly sheepish expression, his tone a bit lower, and whispered, "Is there any more money?"

"Can we ransom out the person we fought?"

"If we can’t compensate for the damages."

"He’ll be thrown into the dwarves’ underground mines for hard labor."

Damn!

Did this brawl actually lead to friendship?

Duncan glanced at Crete next to him, his face bruised and swollen, as he rubbed the back of his head and whispered, "That’s a real warrior! A berserker from the highlands!"

"Let’s ransom him out."

Upon hearing Crete’s words, the six barbarians nearby nodded in agreement, impressed by the man’s valor.

Since killing the ogre, Duncan had taken over the entire war band’s finances, as Hegel’s literacy level was quite low, and most of these barbarians were illiterate.

He looked at the money bag, which still contained some gold dust, and directly tossed it to Hegel, sighing, "Go ahead."

This period of living together.

Duncan discovered that Hegel wasn’t bad; he was just purely chaotic, somewhere between chaotic neutral and chaotic good. As long as he wasn’t blinded by anger, though he often caused trouble, he possessed the justice and courage of a warrior in essence.

He was born a divine son, but he had no parents growing up, taught by an old shaman, coupled with various factors, leading to his reckless behavior.

Nicely put, he’s a legendary hero; harshly put, he’s just a pawn of the Furious Gods.

A tool to maintain the pantheon legend.

Because he possessed divine power but never truly grasped his own fate!

During this time adapting to this world, Duncan actually already had some ideas, only lacking the power to change it all.

Hegel, he has other plans.

When everything matures, this mythic hero script won’t be dictated by the Furious Gods.

——Highland Berserker - Blu (Divine Descendant) (Four-star silver gray).

After Hegel spent all the group’s money, the dwarf guardians released a burly Highlander. He had muscles firm as steel, looked defiant, and although he was half a head shorter than Hegel, he was not overshadowed by his aura at all.

Divine Descendant?

Third or fourth generation divine offspring? No wonder he could compete with Hegel in arm wrestling!

The two were still unconvinced.

They actually agreed to go outside for another showdown, a wrestling match. If Hegel lost, he would serve the other for a day as a servant, and if the other lost, Hegel would invite him to join the war band.

"Is this event triggered?" Duncan’s expression stirred.

Anywhere Hegel went, something was bound to happen because he’s the legendary protagonist template.

This fighting and befriending scenario was just like it was planned in the script.

The other barbarians went out to join the fun, eager to see who was stronger between Hegel and the opponent. But Duncan had no interest, knowing Hegel had cheats and would explode in critical moments; their confrontation would ensure Hegel’s victory.

Duncan had won last time because Hegel was in a weakened and fatigued state, and everything was in Duncan’s favor.

"Looks like the script has started."

This was Hegel’s first attempt to recruit a non-barbarian warrior, and the divine descendant identity was quite intriguing.

Duncan found the Tyr Warrior they saved that day.

By now, the warrior had woken up, but his injuries were severe, and he could not walk for a while.

"Thank you for saving me."

This Tyr Warrior was named Eric, and he sat down hard, expressing gratitude to Duncan, "If not for you, I might have been eaten by the ogre."

Duncan waved his hand, his gaze catching a glimpse of the emblem on Eric, curiosity piquing, "Is this the divine spirit you serve?"

"I’ve never seen an emblem like this."

This Tyr Warrior wore a warhammer scale emblem, even keeping it close while sleeping.

"My Lord Tyr."

Upon hearing Duncan’s words, this Tyr Warrior was instantly interested and eagerly introduced, "He is a powerful Divine Spirit from Asgard, presiding over fairness and justice."

"During the period of Justice Leap, he unexpectedly led a group of Otherworld Divine Attendants to descend and saved countless people with divine miracles."

"And thus, he was cherished by mortal faith; we are all warriors following Tyr."

This era.

The church system was not so divine at times, sometimes followers were more like Divine Spirits’ followers, retainers, or even comrades and partners.

Duncan showed surprise, "Have you seen Tyr?"

In Duncan’s cognition, Tyr is Odin’s offspring, the god of war and courage, also the guarantor of contracts, guardian of oaths, and representative of glory.

In Nordic Mythology, Tyr is known for his great dedication. When the gods wanted to use magical chains to bind the giant wolf Fenrir, Tyr put his right hand as a guarantee in the wolf’s mouth, and Fenrir only believed the gods and allowed himself to be bound when seeing this.

But when it realized it was deceived, it angrily bit off the arm in its mouth, making Tyr a one-armed god.

In World One, Tyr scarcely had any presence.

Although their fame spread in the North, there were almost no divine miracles; relatively active entities were Odin, Sol, and Freya, who all had numerous temples and altars, with priests serving them receiving certain supernatural responses.

Even when Duncan entered the Heroic Spirit Hall, Tyr’s incarnation was quite vague, almost resembling an empty mud sculpture.

The Tyr Warrior in front shook his head, "No. But I have seen Otherworld Divine Attendants who follow Tyr."

"They slew the Original Blood God of Pamela Wilderness!" 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Primordial Divine Spirit.

Ruling tribes with fear, demanding sacrifices from mortals, if not satisfied, these Primordial Divine Spirits would bring down natural disasters.

Don’t think too highly of them, they’re on the level of the Grand Spirits who eat boys and girls.

Humans stepped out of the ignorant Dark Ages, entering the Bronze civilization era, and this type of Primordial Divine Spirit was all cast into the ranks of Pseudo-Gods and Evil Gods.

Now it is already the Iron Age.

Tyr has been here.

Moreover, Tyr once brought a warband of over a hundred Otherworld Divine Attendants!

Tyr Warriors call this event the ’Justice Leap’, where Tyr led a group of Otherworld Divine Attendants and opened many otherworldly gates across worlds, seemingly searching for something.

According to the other party’s account, Duncan learned that Tyr came only twenty or thirty years before he did.

As for now, Tyr does not seem to be here.

Though some Otherworld Divine Attendants did remain.

Because they had once demonstrated divine miracles, Tyr also had certain followers in this world, mainly active near Pamela Wilderness.

"It seems this world is vast!"

"Athena’s visage also entered this world, but no one knows where she is, nor has anyone heard of her rumors!"

The Otherworld Divine Spirits want to gain a foothold but it’s not so easy.

After all, it’s someone else’s turf.

Moreover, they can only descend in the form of Divine Incarnation, even if Athena is strong in other worlds, entering here she may not be able to match local gods, probably just at the level above a demigod. Tyr’s actions were considered adventurous, he could slay the Original Blood God during the ’Justice Leap’, likely not just an ordinary Divine Incarnation.

Besides, there are hardly any legends of Nordic Gods here.

Seemingly seeing Duncan’s interest in Tyr, Eric immediately introduced Tyr’s theological thoughts, it seems he gave up the divine position of war, embraced justice, already somewhat detached from the Norse Pantheon acting independently, with many Otherworld Divine Attendants following him.

These Otherworld Divine Attendants had wings close to those of an Angel, and among them were a small number of Valkyrie.

"Is there a way to contact Tyr?"

"With my relations with the Norse Pantheon, cooperating with Tyr shouldn’t be difficult."

Duncan contemplated in silence.

Unable to find where Athena is, perhaps she even changed her appearance, using another Divine Spirit visage.

Tyr has been here, and left behind Otherworld Divine Attendants, so there must be a way to contact him. Wanting to make a huge impact in this world individually isn’t easy, many Divine Spirits form factions, might even end up beset by groups.

Local gods often choose a united front externally when conflicts happen.

Unfortunately, the Tyr Warrior in front couldn’t gather support either, after all, mortals actively contacting Divine Spirits is difficult, he mentioned a place where Tyr’s Otherworld Divine Attendants are active.

This trip gained a lot.

Though didn’t make contact with Tyr, but gained a potential ally, Tyr seems to be chasing some Divine Spirit, he probably stayed for a few months and then took two hundred Otherworld Divine Attendants and re-entered the Otherworldly gate.

By the time Duncan returned, the contest at Hegel had finished, unsurprisingly he won, the warband had gained a strong newcomer.

This guy coming here had a benefit.

Which is Hegel stopped finding others for wrestling matches, the handsome and strong Blu became Hegel’s best wrestling opponent.
