It isn't Russula integra that has thick brittle gills all extending from the stem to the cap margin. This might be a Hygrophorus sp. It may be easier to say what if you noted what it grows with, describe textures and make sure the colours we see are true - the bottom one is very yellow and some Hygrophorus do have yellow, so we can easily be misled on this. A spore print might offer a clue but it may be not the main thing here. It may be that the shape and texture of the cap is not obvious here - perhaps we should consider Clitocybe. If you want to eat it, you need to know what species you have and the more you can say and show us the better, and if it is the sort of thing that is eaten in parts of Europe it is then down to you to investigate.

im making a spore print right away 
the mushroom i found is from a pine forest and the mushrooms grew under pine tree. the location is from northern Scandinavia and i see that the colour wasn't right on the picture since its more white and not yellow, i think the flash killed the colour :O
