Chapter 1257 This Is Not My Fault
Lin Qiye’s heart skipped a beat as he turned to look at Hodur, reluctantly saying:
“My prophecy ability could barely sense her location from the beginning. Finding the underworld was already my limit. Even if you ask me to prophesy now, the accuracy would be extremely low, especially since I can only make one prophecy per day…”
Boom boom boom—!!
Consecutive explosions from the distant battlefield interrupted Lin Qiye’s words.
Hodur’s face was extremely gloomy, his tightly closed eyes trembling slightly. He suddenly grabbed Lin Qiye’s neck with one hand and spoke coldly:
“I know you prophets have the ability to overdraw your potential to make prophecies! I don’t care if you shorten your lifespan, go mad, or suffer any other side effects. I want you to prophesy Sif’s location again immediately!
Low accuracy doesn’t matter. I need a direction to search!”
The underworld was too vast. Even a major god like Hodur couldn’t search the entire underworld in a short time, not to mention that Loki would certainly hide Sif in an extremely concealed place.
The Queen of the Underworld, Hela, had strength no less than Thor’s. Add to that the cunning Loki, and even if Thor and Tyr joined forces, they might not gain the upper hand. There wasn’t much time left!
Lin Qiye’s prophecy ability was their last trump card!
Seeing Hodur’s murderous expression, Lin Qiye could only swallow the refusal that had reached his lips.
“As you said, I’ll only be responsible for the prophecy. I can’t guarantee its accuracy,” he said quietly.
The subtext was:
Brother, since you insist on me prophesying, I won’t be responsible for the consequences.
Lin Qiye sat down, his fingertips tracing the ground around him, quickly sketching a complex magic array. Strands of magical light poured into it, gradually illuminating the entire array, giving it a profound and mysterious appearance.
Seeing this, Hodur’s expression finally softened somewhat. As he sensed Lin Qiye’s movements before him, a glimmer of hope rose in his heart.
Lin Qiye didn’t know any prophecy techniques at all. The flashy magic array under his feet was just something he drew randomly to fool people. After all, without putting on a show, it would be difficult to gain Hodur’s trust.
Lin Qiye sat in the center of the magic array, put his thumb to his mouth, and bit down hard!
Drops of fresh blood fell from his finger, flowing along the indentations of the magic array, quickly covering the entire magical light.
Lin Qiye slowly closed his eyes, muttering something in a convincing manner, his brows furrowing tighter and tighter, as if struggling in pain.
As Lin Qiye’s expression changed, Hodur’s heart clenched with anxiety.
The sounds of battle in the distance grew louder. Hodur was extremely anxious but feared disturbing Lin Qiye’s prophecy process. After all, Lin Qiye had previously prophesied in a quiet room prepared by Thor. Moving to such a harsh environment would certainly increase the difficulty significantly.
Finally, the magical light around Lin Qiye dimmed. He opened his eyes and violently spat out a mouthful of blood.
Lin Qiye’s eyes were bloodshot. He tremblingly extended his hand, pointing toward a mountain in the distance.
“I think… it’s there!”
With Lin Qiye’s guidance, Hodur rushed away without another word, transforming into a streak of darkness!
Watching Hodur gradually disappear on the horizon, Lin Qiye finally breathed a sigh of relief. He licked his bitten tongue and erased the magic array with his foot.
That direction was just randomly chosen.
He had already warned Hodur that the prophecy’s accuracy wasn’t high, so even if Hodur couldn’t find Sif, he would have an excuse.
While Lin Qiye was lost in thought, a towering dark axe rapidly appeared from the edge of the horizon. A blurry figure holding this axe suddenly swung it toward the mountain peak Lin Qiye had pointed to!
Hodur, the God of Darkness and Blindness, seemed to be getting serious!
Under Lin Qiye’s gaze, this enormous dark axe swiftly struck the mountain peak!!
Clang—!!
A massive sound of metal clashing echoed under the sky of the underworld.
The sound was so piercing that even Lin Qiye, dozens of kilometers away, couldn’t help covering his ears. The four divine power fluctuations engaged in battle in the distance also paused simultaneously!
The expected scene of the mountain being split in half didn’t occur. The towering dark axe had only embedded about ten meters into the mountain peak, as if stuck in metal, unable to penetrate further.
Lin Qiye stood frozen in place.
Are the mountains in the underworld… all this hard?
Just as he was puzzled, the mountain peak struck by Hodur began to violently shake!
Numerous rocks fell from the mountainside, and a giant beast’s head, hundreds of times larger than Hodur, slowly raised from the dust swirling around the mountainside.
A pair of flickering ghostly eyes, like two green suns, stared fixedly at the ant-like Hodur. Rage and killing intent surged forth like a tidal wave!
Seeing this, Lin Qiye couldn’t help but gape, his eyes filled with shock.
“This isn’t my fault…” he muttered.
…
The dark axe shattered bit by bit.
Hodur, looking at the enormous creature standing up from the mountain peak before him, was utterly horrified!
“What the hell is th—”
Bang—!!
Before Hodur could finish saying “this,” a massive bone hand descended from the sky, instantly swatting him to the ground like a fly!
Thick smoke rose from the ground, and a streak of darkness rapidly moved across the shadows of the boulders on the ground, reforming Hodur’s figure in mid-air.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked down at the enormous creature below, emanating a cold killing intent.
“Since such a monster stands guard, Sif must indeed be nearby…”
Hodur snorted coldly. Endless darkness spread with him at its center. He placed his hands behind his back, like an emperor of darkness, ruling over all.
Hodur could sense that this mountain beast was extremely powerful. Unless he paid a huge price, it was basically impossible to defeat this beast in a short time.
But the current situation no longer allowed him to hesitate.
Hodur took a deep breath, and the darkness around him seemed to boil. Just as he was about to control the surrounding darkness to engage in a great battle with this inexplicable giant beast below, several consecutive booming sounds came from not far away.
Boom—boom—boom—boom…
The earth trembled, and the sky turned blood-red.
In the dim crimson light, the towering mountains surrounding Hodur seemed to come alive, slowly rising from the ground!
The enormous bodies shook slightly, shedding loose rocks from their surfaces. One by one, huge bone beast heads rose from the dust, coldly looking down at Hodur in the center. Twelve pairs of ghostly green fire eyes emitted a pressure that made one’s heart palpitate.
