Chapter 1299 Charging Toward the Supreme
Lin Qiye followed Sol and the others through the streets of Asgard.
Today the streets were unusually quiet. The minor deities who could occasionally be seen on normal days had seemingly vanished without a trace. Even on the rare occasions when they encountered a few handmaidens, upon seeing Sol and his group approaching from a distance, they would immediately change their expressions, lower their heads, and hurry along, wishing they could bury themselves in the ground.
It seemed that most of the deities in Asgard did not want to get involved in this troubled situation, after all, they could afford to offend neither Thor nor Loki.
For them, regardless of which side ultimately emerged victorious, it wouldn’t make much difference.
Just as the Moral Heavenly Venerable had said when inquiring about the Norse pantheon, the gods of Asgard were nothing but scattered sand. Without a leader, they would not pose much of a threat to Great Xia.
In comparison, even the Egyptian Sun City, which had been destroyed early on, had more cohesion than they did.
As Sol and his group gradually approached the Miracle Square, Lin Qiye could vaguely see some figures already surrounding the square.
Among them was Hela, the Queen of the Underworld, who had previously fought fiercely with Sol’s group in the Underworld, as well as other deities with equally terrifying auras whom Lin Qiye did not recognize.
Seeing Sol and his group arrive, one of the golden-haired, white-robed deities sneered and said in a sarcastic tone:
“What wind has blown the great Lord Thor here?”
Thor glanced at him and calmly replied, “I heard Loki was going to attempt to reach the Supreme God status here, so I came to see…”
“To see? Or to cause trouble?” That deity sneered, “Would the mighty Thor, God of Thunder, stoop to taking advantage of someone’s vulnerable moment?
Drop that disgusting attitude, Thor!
If you truly cared about Asgard, you would understand that what Asgard needs now is not a Chief God with an empty reputation… What Asgard needs now is a Supreme who can lead everyone!
You can’t break through to Supreme yourself, so you come to disturb Loki’s attempt? How is your behavior any different from those foolish mortals who only know how to fight for power and position, wasting national strength?”
Tyr, the God of War standing beside Thor, frowned, “Balder, shut your foul mouth! If Loki takes control of Asgard, the Norse pantheon will eventually be destroyed in his hands!”
“What do you know? In this era, only a truly ruthless and decisive king can lead Asgard to glory!”
“Enough!”
As the two argued, Thor roared, rolling thunder mixed in his voice, instantly overpowering both of them.
The entire Miracle Square fell silent.
Lin Qiye stood behind Thor, curiously examining the golden-haired, white-robed deity in the sky.
Balder, God of Light?
Is he the one who possesses the [Gray-White Arena], the proxy Chief God?
Thor’s eyes, flickering with lightning, swept across the entire square as he slowly spoke: “Where is Loki? Where is he?”
“What’s this? My dear Thor? Did you perhaps think I wouldn’t dare to come?”
A voice drifted over from the other side of the square. Everyone turned to look and saw Loki, dressed in magnificent ceremonial robes, narrowing his eyes and smiling as he slowly approached.
Si Xiaonan followed closely behind him with her head lowered.
Seeing Loki arrive, Hela, Balder, and the others surrounding the square immediately made way. Loki passed unhurriedly through the crowd, stopping in the center of Miracle Square, his eyes fixed on Thor, whose expression was solemn.
“Loki, what exactly are you trying to do?” Thor asked in a deep voice.
“What am I trying to do?” Loki chuckled, “I told you, I’m going to attempt to reach Supreme… Since you’re here, you and the others can watch from the side.
Watch carefully how I ascend to Supreme, and then take my rightful place as God King.”
Thor’s expression grew increasingly grim.
“Thor…” Tyr beside him placed his hand on his sword hilt and glanced at Thor.
It seemed that with just one command from him, everyone would charge forward, break through Loki’s followers, and capture Loki.
Thor shook his head, “Not yet, let’s see what he’s really up to… I feel this isn’t as simple as it seems.”
As Thor spoke, Lin Qiye’s gaze passed through the crowd and met Si Xiaonan’s eyes behind Loki.
Si Xiaonan, with her head half-lowered, imperceptibly shook her head at him.
Lin Qiye frowned, lost in thought.
Loki lightly tapped his toe on the ground, and his figure slowly rose from the center of Miracle Square. His magnificent ceremonial robes moved without wind. He spread his arms, eyes slightly closed, as if embracing the sky.
In the next moment, terrifying waves of divine power surged out from within his body!
The moment they sensed this powerful divine power fluctuation, Thor and the others’ gazes sharpened.
Thor had always believed that Loki’s realm was on par with his own, just barely touching the threshold of the Supreme realm… but now it seemed this was merely an illusion Loki had presented.
Loki hadn’t just touched the threshold.
He had already stepped one foot inside.
When had he become so powerful?
“Thor, he really seems to be attempting to break through to the Supreme realm,” Vidar, the Forest God, said with a grave expression.
“I know… let’s keep watching,” Thor hesitated for a moment but still chose to observe.
Loki’s figure flew higher and higher in the air, and the divine pressure he released grew stronger and stronger. As black threads extended from his body, the entire sky seemed to be stained with a drop of black ink, rapidly spreading.
With his eyes closed, he raised his palms and gently clapped them together in front of his chest.
Boom——!!
The immensely powerful divine energy suddenly erupted, remotely causing the Miracle Square below to crack in all directions. The fierce wind blew Lin Qiye’s golden hair wildly, forcing his eyes to narrow involuntarily.
Feeling the majestic divine might descending from the sky, his form was slightly compressed by the pressure. He took a deep breath and forcibly straightened his chest using his physical strength, as spider web-like cracks gradually spread beneath his feet.
At the same time, a slight cracking sound came from Loki’s body.
“This is bad! He’s really about to break through to Supreme!” Tyr’s expression changed drastically. He suddenly turned to Thor, “Thor! If we don’t act now, it will be too late!”
Dense lightning coiled around Thor’s body. He clenched his fists tightly, staring at the figure in ceremonial robes in the sky. After a moment of hesitation, a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes:
“Attack!”
As soon as the words fell, Sif, Tyr, Vidar, and the others who had been waiting eagerly had fierce killing intent erupting in their eyes. The Norse war division behind them roared in unison, transforming into countless streams of divine light rushing toward the sky!
In an instant, divine light surged magnificently, as if about to tear the firmament apart.
At this moment, Loki, with his eyes tightly closed in the sky, suddenly curled his lips into a mischievous smile…
