Chapter 1322 Rescue Memorial
In this kind of tactic, the number of Nordic gods pouring into the maze quickly decreased.
The Queen Mother of the West narrowed her eyes slightly, curled her fingertips, and the Holy Rainbow Sword that was stuck in the ground automatically fell into her hand.
The foundation of this maze’s existence was Guan Zai’s spiritual power. Even though he was currently the strongest ceiling-level expert, he couldn’t maintain the maze’s existence for long. However, now that they had seized the Holy Rainbow Sword that could open the Rainbow Bridge to leave Asgard, the people of Great Xia had a way to retreat.
They could advance or defend as needed, everything was proceeding perfectly according to Left Qing’s plan.
Outside the red brick maze, Lin Qiye stood beside Guan Zai, overlooking the panorama inside the maze with a complicated expression.
“What? Feeling it’s a bit cruel?” Guan Zai tapped the brim of his baseball cap with his fingertip, revealing half of his face, speaking half-jokingly.
“How could that be.” Lin Qiye shook his head,
“They are Nordic gods with different standpoints. Even if we don’t kill them, one day they will attack Great Xia… Moreover, over so many years, they have made plenty of moves against Great Xia.
Even if some of them are benevolent gods who just want to protect their homeland, on the battlefield, there’s no time to distinguish one by one, and we can’t show misplaced compassion. Just like in a war between two countries, bullets don’t avoid good people… Standpoint is standpoint, it has nothing to do with good or evil.
I’m just worried about a friend who is still locked in the Abyss Prison… I don’t know how she’s doing now.”
Guan Zai raised an eyebrow, “If that’s the case, you’d better go rescue her while we can still hold off these Nordic gods…
The Queen Mother has already obtained the Holy Rainbow Sword. When the maze’s duration ends and the Nordic gods swarm in, we may have no choice but to retreat.”
“Holy Rainbow Sword? What’s that?” Lin Qiye asked in confusion.
Guan Zai: …???
The duration of [Star Coin] had ended, and the Holy Rainbow Sword that Lin Qiye had materialized from memory disappeared along with it. Correspondingly, he also forgot about the Holy Rainbow Sword itself.
“Never mind… I’ll go rescue her first.” Lin Qiye shook his head, his form flickered, and he transformed into an ordinary-looking Westerner, returning to the streets of Asgard and sprinting toward the Abyss Prison.
Myles’ identity had been exposed, and Lin Qiye couldn’t possibly ride the Somersault Cloud openly through Asgard to rescue someone from prison. After all, although most Nordic gods had been drawn to the red brick maze, there were still some gods scattered around observing from the shadows. So he could only randomly choose an appearance and approach the prison from his memory.
“By the way… where’s No. 22?”
Lin Qiye looked toward the Rainbow Bridge but didn’t see No. 22’s figure.
After he opened the Rainbow Bridge, many ceiling-level experts from Great Xia came to help. The battle between gods became chaotic, and No. 22 had disappeared without a trace… He was either casually killed by some Nordic god or had secretly slipped across the Rainbow Bridge back to the real world. Based on Lin Qiye’s understanding of No. 22, it was likely the latter.
But now was not the time to worry about the life or death of an agent. No one knew what changes might have occurred in the prison during Asgard’s chaos.
Most importantly, was the wolf Fenrir still guarding his post?
Lin Qiye summoned Mu Mu to take a look. After the battle at the Rainbow Bridge, the sacrifices in the [Holy Grail] had been almost completely consumed, with only a shallow layer of wine floating at the bottom. He wasn’t sure if it would be enough to support him until he rescued Ji Nian.
Unfortunately, even though so many gods had died in the red brick maze, the wine in the [Holy Grail] had not increased. It seemed that only creatures killed by the master of the [Holy Grail] could become sacrifices and merge into the cup.
As Lin Qiye continued to advance, a tremendous rumbling sound suddenly erupted from the direction of the Abyss Prison!
A powerful pillar of murderous fire energy shot straight into the sky!
“Hmm?” Lin Qiye was startled, then his eyes gradually brightened,
“Is it them?!”
…
Five minutes earlier.
More than ten figures moved like ghosts through the streets. Under the cover of the deafening explosions from the Rainbow Bridge, they silently arrived near the Abyss Prison.
“Is it here?” Knight looked at the heavily guarded prison entrance in the distance and asked in a deep voice.
“Yes.” An Qingyu’s gray eyes emitted a faint pressure. “There’s no mistake, she’s down there.”
“Good.” Knight took a deep breath, his gaze falling on the Nordic war department members still stationed at the entrance, his eyes flickering with unprecedented fighting spirit.
Although a divine battle had erupted at the Rainbow Bridge, the Nordic war department guarding the entrance had not been reassigned. On one hand, this was because the prison held many dangerous beings that absolutely could not be compromised; on the other hand, these ordinary war department members had not reached the divine realm, and participating in the divine battle would only lead to certain death.
The few Nordic war department leaders who had entered the divine realm were already trapped in the red brick maze.
“All Shangxie Association members, listen to my command.” Knight lowered his voice, his eyes full of determination. “Rescue the President at all costs!!”
The Abyss Prison’s location was special. To break into the deepest part and rescue Ji Nian, the Shangxie Association members could only use brute force. Fortunately, those participating in this operation were mostly top fighters of the Shangxie Association. Without the Nordic gods’ intervention, they had a chance of winning in a direct confrontation.
The Shangxie Association members nodded firmly. At Knight’s command, they simultaneously shot forward like arrows toward the prison entrance!
The Nordic war department members guarding the prison had their attention mostly on the divine battle at the Rainbow Bridge. Who could have imagined that at such a time, an unknown enemy force would suddenly appear in Asgard.
This sudden attack momentarily threw them into confusion, but they were well-trained war department members after all. They quickly stabilized their formation and engaged the Shangxie Association members in battle!
The four Envoys had been injured in their battle with Loki, but they now fought at the forefront of the Shangxie Association as if injected with adrenaline. The four masks forcefully tore open a gaping hole in the Nordic war department’s formation, continuously pressing toward the prison entrance.
“Should we help?”
Nearby, Cao Yuan watched the chaotic battlefield and turned to ask An Qingyu.
They were not members of the Shangxie Association, so Knight had not actively asked for their help before attacking the prison. After all, fundamentally, Ji Nian was the President of the Shangxie Association.
Whether to help or not depended on how An Qingyu, the deputy team leader, would decide.
An Qingyu pondered for a moment, then nodded, “Let’s help. Seven Nights should have already joined up with the Great Xia gods and is out of danger, so he doesn’t need our rescue.
Rather, here, if we stand by and do nothing, and this drags on too long, I’m afraid the situation at the Rainbow Bridge might change…”
Baili Pangpang stretched his shoulders and chuckled, “Understood!”
In the melee at the prison entrance, three figures suddenly attacked from the flank of the battlefield!
