Chapter 401 Mission Completed
Thunder Temple.
In the spacious and bright main hall.
Lin Qiye, sitting atop the giant magic circle, was panting heavily.
After a moment, he forced himself to lift his head and spoke, feigning weakness.
"Lord Thor, I have not failed you..."
Upon hearing this, Thor, who was standing on the periphery staring intently at Lin Qiye, was overjoyed and couldn't wait to ask.
"Thank you for your hard work. What's the way to stop Loki?"
"Loki's body was shrouded in the power of faith, and I could only see a very blurry future."
"Just now, I simulated 1,342 ways to prevent Loki from ascending to the Supreme Realm, but... I only succeeded once."
"Although I can't see exactly what force prevented Loki from ascending to the highest realm, at the beginning of the story, a broadsword has been guiding me..."
"A broadsword?" Thor's face showed a thoughtful expression upon hearing this.
A moment later, as if he had thought of something, he reached out and grasped the throne.
A broadsword, its entire body gleaming with a chilling light, landed steadily in his hand.
“Miles, tell me, is the broadsword you saw... this the one?”
"Yes, Lord Thor, although it is very vague, I am certain that the broadsword that appeared in the prophecy is the very one in your hand."
"The Holy Rainbow Sword? Is it the key to preventing Loki from ascending to the highest realm?... " After Lin Qiye's voice fell, Thor looked at the artifact in his hand, which had limited use, and fell into deep thought.
Aside from being able to open the Rainbow Bridge, this sword is nothing special; in terms of sharpness, it is far inferior to high-level divine artifacts such as the Spear of Eternity.
so.......
Miles foresaw that the way to stop Loki from ascending to the Supreme Realm was definitely not to kill him with the Rainbow Sword.
If this path doesn't work, then there's only one answer...
The method to prevent Loki from ascending to the highest point is likely related to external factors.
Thinking of this, Thor's face also turned frosty.
Didn't you boast that you would ascend to the highest realm in the divine realm?
In that case, I'll open the Rainbow Bridge!
Asgard...it's long overdue for a proper cleanup!
Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Thor slung the Holy Rainbow Sword over his shoulder and turned to walk away.
"Tyr, Hoddle, Sif, you take Miles to the central square and wait for me. I'll go to the Heavenly Gate and come find you."
"Thor, what do you want to do?..." As if she knew Thor's decision, Sif ran over and grabbed his hand anxiously.
"You must calm down. The problems in Asgard can only be resolved internally. If you resort to external forces, you will never gain the trust of the Norse pantheon..."
“I know.” Thor was very calm now. He knew very well that in terms of strategy, ten of him would not be a match for Loki. Since the latter was able to release the news of his ascension to the highest position, he must have a backup plan.
To avoid excessive sacrifices, Thor decided to use Miles to make the prophecy, hoping to gain the upper hand and have a chance to reclaim his throne.
"I did all this for Asgard, Sif, you don't need to try to persuade me anymore..."
"As the crown prince, this is my only choice."
Just as Thor was heading to the Heavenly Gate with the Holy Rainbow Sword.
Lin Qiye clutched his chest and lowered his head, a cryptic smile playing on his lips.
This Thor...
They seem pretty easy to fool...
That's right, the prophecy just now was indeed something Lin Qiye made up.
He just wanted to test whether Thor would do something outrageous based on his 'prophecy'.
In fact, after Lin Qiye rescued Sif, Miles had already gained a high position in Thor's heart. Therefore, He was willing to believe that this ethereal prophecy was the only option to prevent Loki from ascending to the highest position.
"Let's go, Miles."
The God of War, Tyr, sighed softly, then spoke to Lin Qiye, who was sitting in the center of the magic circle.
"We should head to the central square."
..........
The streets were unusually deserted today. The lesser gods who usually roamed Asgard seemed unwilling to get involved in the struggle between the two crown princes and chose to stay indoors.
The few maids you occasionally see also keep their heads down and walk quickly past the roadside.
Just as they arrived at Miracle Square, located in the very center of Asgard, Loki's faction's supporters were already waiting there.
"Oh ho, Tyr, Hoddle, Sif? ...Where's Thor? Why isn't he here? Without Him, the few of you probably can't stop Lord Loki from ascending to the Supreme Realm, can you?"
Hearing this flippant voice, Tyr frowned and hissed in a low voice.
"Badr, shut your stinking mouth!"
"Hey hey hey, who are you going to bite with those bared teeth?"
"you!......"
"Forget it, save your energy for later. I don't want to argue with a dog right now."
Seeing Tyr's anger, the god known as Baldr shook his head and chuckled, taking a few steps back and creating some distance between them.
It wasn't that He didn't want to take action, but rather that the gods before Him were supporters...
It's already here.
Less than three breaths later, a thunderous roar seemed to erupt in the sky, and then Thor, his body wreathed in indigo lightning, calmly landed directly in front of Tyr and the others.
His indifferent gaze swept across the square, then fixed on Badr's figure, and he spoke softly.
"Where is Loki? Where is He?"
"What? My dear Thor, do you think... I'm too afraid to come?"
Just after Thor's voice fell, a cynical voice drifted from the other side of the square.
The gods from both sides turned their heads almost simultaneously, only to see that Loki had changed out of his usual sharp suit and into a magnificent robe, smiling as he slowly walked over.
His agent, Si Xiaonan, also changed into a pure white cloak and followed behind Loki with her head down.
Seeing that the main character had arrived, Thor took a deep breath and slowly walked forward, finally stopping in the center of the square.
Soon, with the main temple of Asgard as the central axis, the two groups of people lined up on either side, clearly separated.
"Loki, what exactly do you want to do?" Thor looked at the person in front of him and said in a deep voice.
"What do you want to do? Didn't I already tell you?" Loki narrowed his long, narrow eyes and said, enunciating each word clearly.
"I will ascend to the highest point right here!"
Upon hearing this, Thor's face darkened completely.
Could it be that He... wasn't just bluffing?
Seeing that Thor had no intention of continuing, Loki chuckled, lightly touched the ground with his toes, and soon flew directly above the Miracle Square.
Unlike the dark side he had shown before, Loki, in mid-air, looked like a slowly rising sun, radiating brilliance, accentuated by his magnificent robes.
He opened his arms naturally, closed his eyes slightly, and then a terrifying tide of divine power surged out from Loki's body!
The moment this divine power fluctuation appeared.
The gods in Thor's camp unconsciously lost their focus for a moment.
"He is truly...close to reaching the highest realm..."
Upon hearing Tyr's voice, Thor did not respond, but instead stared intently at the radiant figure in mid-air, lost in thought.
He always thought that Loki's level of attainment should be similar to his own, both of them having touched the highest threshold, but lacking some opportunity.
But now it seems that Loki's attainment of the highest realm is not as simple as it seems.
Rather, it is already close to reaching the highest realm!
When exactly did He become so strong?
However, no one told Him the answer to this question...
While the gods were still in a daze, Loki's figure flew higher and higher, and correspondingly, the divine power he released became stronger and stronger!
At the same time, the power of the laws belonging to the God of Deception began to reveal its true form.
Strands of black threads emerged from Loki's body and gradually covered the sky.
Before long, the pure blue sky was completely covered by ink.
Loki reached out and grasped the solidified power of law before him, then gently waved it.
The immense divine power was unleashed at this moment, and even the Miracle Square where Thor and the others stood developed cracks under the force of this violent divine power.
Click...
A crisp cracking sound rang out from Loki, reaching the ears of Thor and the other gods with perfect accuracy.
"Oh no! He's really about to break through to the highest level!" Tyr's expression changed drastically, but before he could warn him, he was already on the verge of doing so.
Thor, his face grim, gritted his teeth and spoke.
"Do it!"
As soon as the words fell, Sif, Hoddle, and the others, who had been waiting for their chance, unleashed a strong killing intent and transformed into several streaks of light, shooting straight towards Loki in mid-air!
In an instant, divine light surged forth, and the sky above Asgard seemed to shatter.
Loki, whom the gods considered a sure target, revealed a mocking smile at this moment...
"finally......."
"We've been tricked..."
When Thor, who was at the forefront, saw the smile on Loki's face, a faint unease rose in his heart.
But now that they have chosen to take action, this matter absolutely cannot be resolved peacefully!
As Thor and his companions set off, Baldr and others, representing Loki's camp and the God of Light, also joined the fray, releasing their auras and soaring into the sky.
"A sneak attack amidst the chaos... Thor, your tactics are really hard to compliment..."
"Stop talking nonsense and get out of here!"
"Otherwise, I wouldn't mind taking care of you too!"
Tyr drew his longsword from his waist and looked coldly at Baldr, who was blocking their way.
"Thor, go find Loki. We'll take care of this."
"Ah."
Thor knew that at this point, only he could stop Loki.
He didn't mince words, but simply nodded heavily. Then, he crossed the defensive line formed by the gods standing on Loki's side, gathered lightning, and blasted it towards the person in the sky!
The internal war between the gods in Asgard has fully erupted at this moment!
On the plaza, Lin Qiye, who had been blown away by divine power, barely managed to regain his footing.
He looked at the gods fighting in the sky and turned to run without hesitation!
What a joke!
If he doesn't leave now, he might be torn to shreds by the raging power of the laws!
Anyway, he should have completed the task assigned to him by Commander Zuo. Now all he has to do is try his best to save his life.
In this situation, no one will pay any attention to such a weak agent as him.
Even Thor, who highly values Loki's abilities, shifted his attention to Loki, who was about to ascend to the highest realm.
"My dear Thor, you're still as foolish as ever..."
Loki narrowed his long, narrow eyes, smiling as he looked at Thor, who was charging towards him with overwhelming force, and said in a low voice.
"You really think I'd attempt to reach the highest level in this dangerous place? That's ridiculous..."
Snapped!
Loki stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers lightly. Then, the figures of him and Si Xiaonan, who was standing in the square, gradually became illusory.
"trick?"
As the person in front of him gradually disappeared, Thor clenched his fist and slammed it down hard.
pat!
Just as His fist was about to land on Loki's head, the latter's figure had already completely dissipated.
When Thor came to his senses again, Loki and Si Xiaonan were no longer in the Miracle Square.
"Damn it!"
Thor turned around and looked at the four gods surrounding him, and his anger flared up instantly.
The result is now clear: the information Loki released earlier was indeed false.
Everything He just did above Miracle Square was simply to make Thor believe that He was really going to attempt to reach the highest point here.
Just as Thor lost his temper and decided to make a move, he truly fell into Loki's trap.
The purpose was simple: to keep them here.
"Miles! Where are you!"
Pulling his thoughts back, Thor suppressed his anger and calmed himself down.
The current situation is not hopeless; He still has one last trump card, which is the prophecy made by Miles, the agent of the god of prophecy and magic, before He arrived here!
That's the only possibility that could prevent Loki from ascending to the highest realm!
But.......
He received no further response.
It's over......
Thor's heart sank completely.
He didn't believe Miles would betray him; he must have been severely injured in the clash of divine power just now...
It seems that we must first deal with these servants who have sided with Loki before we can have any hope of stopping Him from ascending to the highest place!
Pulling himself back to reality, Thor's attacks became increasingly cunning and terrifying, with surging thunder roaring across the heavens.
The four Loki-backed gods who tried to hold Thor back were all sent flying backwards!
Meanwhile, Loki, who had escaped through a 'trick,' was leading Si Xiaonan back to the altar he had built long ago.
"Then... let's begin!"
