Old days in the box

Chapter 453: You want to beat ten too?

Hearing Odin's blatant slander, even Zhou Xiao in front of the screen almost couldn't hold it in.

This guy designed the death of the Key God and secretly colluded with the Giants to provoke a war, but now he is putting all the blame on himself?

But Odin, who was shrouded in mist, remained calm and continued to speak to the gods calmly:

"The only way to fight against this ancient evil is to change the laws of nature and push our godhood to a new peak. Could it be that you also doubt the warning of the Oracle?"

“We dare not.” All the gods lowered their heads again, with different expressions on their faces.

Odin is the actual master of Asgard. It was he who won the War of Creation ten thousand years ago, established the Nine Realms and generously shared the fruits of victory with the gods, which gave him the status of the gods in heaven.

Although He has retreated behind the scenes in the past few thousand years, as long as He speaks, the gods dare not disobey His will.

The God of War Tyr and the Guardian Heimdall secretly looked up at the strange father, the God King, in front of them. Since Odin appointed Thor to rule the realm of God, even they have not seen their father for a long time.

At this time, Odin was surrounded by clouds, with almost no clothes covering his body, let alone the most common armor decoration of the Norse gods. Purple electric light occasionally flashed in the clouds, illuminating his conceptual body that was integrated with the clouds, like light and like a dragon.

Behind Him stood four silent attendant knights, all dressed in strange clothes, looking at these gods with vigilant eyes.

This was not the scene that should occur between father and son at all. The solemn atmosphere filled the valley, making them feel breathless.

"Heimdall, your mission in the Land of Giants has ended. Your mother misses you very much. It is time for you to return to the Divine Realm with me."

Odin was hovering above the clouds, his gaze turning to look at the Wheel of Time and Space in Heimdall's hand.

The God of Keys, known as the "Key to the Starry Sky", rules over the dwarf kingdom of Svartalfheim. He has created countless weapons for the gods in the divine realm, and the most special one is the "Rainbow Bridge" in Heimdall's hands.

The Rainbow Bridge is the bridge of Asgard, a wheel of time and space that can span the void. Its power is always closely connected with the Divine Realm. When it is in the Divine Realm, the gate of time and space can point to any other realm; and when it is in other realms, it can also open the door to return to the Divine Realm at any time.

This is the only space artifact left by the Key God Sun Hao. It was originally intended to be a shield to maintain peace in the God's realm, but now it has become a sword for Odin to start a war.

"Mother?" Heimdall felt Odin's gaze and felt fear in his heart.

"Yes, don't you miss home?" Odin stretched out his palm to Him with a smile.

The confrontation lasted only a few seconds before Heimdall finally let go of his hand, allowing the Rainbow Bridge in his hand to be sucked away by Odin and quickly disappear in the lightning cloud around him.

Odin smiled with satisfaction, and then turned to the god of war Tyr and said, "Tyr, Vali, you too, don't have to stay here any longer, let's return to the realm of the gods together."

Tyr and Vali looked at each other. The three sons of Odin present were a little at a loss, not understanding what the father's order meant.

"Respected God King, Midgard had just prevented the precursor of Ragnarok earlier and defeated the Thousand Flower Mother Goddess who devoured the sun. I don't think they would be the culprit of the catastrophe." Upon seeing this, Thor immediately spoke up and interrupted.

"The mortals in Midgard have had their minds corrupted by the Old Ones. They helped the Old Ones seize the sun in order to control the cold wave and pave the way for the invasion of the giants." Odin sneered, "Since when did you become so concerned about mortals?"

"I thought that was your idea. After all, it is you, the God King, who has always been the most partial to mortals." Thor also laughed.

"That's right. It is precisely because these mortals were created by me that I should be the one to punish them and judge their mistakes."

"Is this why you attacked the atrium?" Victoria asked with thousands of voices. "Since they have been deceived and bewitched by the Old Ones, they are no longer useful to us. It is the right thing to do to root them out as soon as possible. Unfortunately, they escaped from the void to other worlds, and some of them even fell into your realm. Queen who swore to protect peace, you should not protect those members of the Old Ones, right?"

After an intense conversation without any pause, Odin not only answered the gods' questions fluently, but even questioned them back from the high ground of cosmic justice, leaving the gods speechless.

Everyone could clearly feel that the former King of the Gods was different, but no one dared to ask.

"Heimdall, Tyr, Wally, what are you waiting for? Don't you want to go home?" Odin opened his palms again, and the light of "kingship" emanated from the Infinity Gauntlet, activating the Rainbow Bridge in His hands.

The sophisticated wheel of time and space opened instantly, transforming into countless gears and pointers that moved through the middle of the golden light curtain until it expanded to a large enough size, forming several overlapping irregular circles.

The time and space gate returning to the divine realm Asgard appeared before them in an instant.

In this age when the authority of the "Gate" has fallen, nothing can match the ability of the Rainbow Bridge to travel through space. Compared with it, the Realm Elevator is like a sampan entering the sea, simply exchanging great danger for the possibility of forced passage.

But having said that, Zhou Xiao could only watch and wait for the situation to develop, not daring to take any rash action against the valley.

On the one hand, the Rainbow Bridge had already fallen into Odin's hands. With his current abilities, he could only bluff people at best, and was far from being able to directly snatch things from Odin.

You know, after the last round of troubles and the energy infusion for Loki, he only has 35 faith points left, so he has to use them sparingly.

On the other hand, Zhou Xiao’s ability to have vision in this valley was entirely due to the fact that Loki, the god of trickery, was peeping at the outer edge. If he acted rashly and exposed his presence, Loki would also suffer.

At that time, not only would he lose an excellent vision-enhancing unit in vain, but even the 10 faith points invested in Loki would be wasted. This would be a double loss!
So at this stage, Zhou Xiao decided to focus on collecting intelligence, and any counterattacks would have to wait until the realm elevator was rebuilt and returned to the atrium.

In the valley, Heimdall, Vali, and Tyr, the three sons of Odin, had no more reasons to refuse. Under Odin's high-pressure gaze, they had no choice but to obey. They took turns walking into the wheel of time and space that was filled with golden light and instantly disappeared in this land of ice and snow.

Odin continued to look at the remaining Thunder God Thor and Fertility Goddess Victoria, but before he could speak, the gigantic and enchanting goddess spoke first:
"Respected God King, I have no interest in how you punish your creations, nor do I intend to get involved in the affairs of God's Domain. If you can show me a way back to Alfheim, I will be happy to leave now."

At this point in the situation, everyone seemed to understand what was going to happen next.

Massive divine power is converging towards the sky above this area, and the authority of God is making eager sounds, as if an arrow is ready to be shot.

The choice fell into Odin's hands: whether to deal with Thor and Victoria at the same time, or to let go of this old acquaintance who was once a box player.

According to His original plan, the Kingdom of Elves and the Kingdom of Vanir were both strategic targets that the Divine Realm had to address first. They were more independent and more powerful, and would never tolerate the Divine Realm arbitrarily changing the laws of nature and weakening the old gods.

But now, the Old Ones have returned again and happened to land in the Land of Elves, so the situation may be different.

"Okay, Alfheim has always been a neutral party in the starry sky. Since you have no intention of interfering, you can leave." Odin thought for a moment and finally answered.

He once again changed the light of the Infinity Gauntlet, twisting the Bifrost artifact in his hand.

Under the rule of the "royal power", the wheel of time and space once again changed its structure and redirected to a new destination.

"Thank you." Victoria smiled slightly, and her whole body turned into liquid light and flowed into the Rainbow Bridge.

After this, Thor was the only one left in the huge valley.
