Falsifying history is good business

Chapter 356: Desperate Dog Jumps Over the Wall and the Goddess Awakens
(It has been modified and can be read now)
The attacker whose hammer missed the target stared at the place where Lin You disappeared with his eyes wide open, without moving for a long time; the other two accomplices who had surrounded him from different directions stopped one after another, their eyes focused on the same place without making a sound.

The three figures formed a V-shape, surrounding the location where the dimensional space door was closed in the center.

The man swinging the hammer was not only tall and burly, but the most striking thing was his round beer belly and messy long hair. Under his long hair, he concealed a pair of rough and ferocious facial features.

This face is also an old acquaintance of Lin You. He had seen it when he went to the "God of War" story world to clean up the mess; it was Thor in the game world. It can be said that the author recognized the identity of the attacker at the first sight of the flying hammer.

As for the other two, they were dressed like wilderness hunters, so they were complete strangers. However, since they were able to set up an ambush with Thor, it was obvious that they were other Norse gods.

"Success." After counting silently for a while, the three gods raised their heads almost at the same time and collectively cast their gazes towards the distant southern sky.

That's the direction of London, where Forrest Hall is located.

Although Lin You broke out of the ambush circle, he realized that he had made a serious mistake the moment he stepped out of the dimensional gate.

The preset exit of the dimensional gate was originally the absolutely safe private laboratory in the manor, but now it appeared outside the gate of Forest Manor.

Not outside the door of the main building of the villa, but outside the gate of the manor wall.

As soon as he saw the surrounding environment, Lin You immediately understood: the ambush that just happened in Hogsmeade was not a hasty act; his successful escape was not due to a flaw in the enemy's encirclement, but because the enemy deliberately exposed a flaw and drove him into the preset battlefield.

The other party made careful arrangements for the dimensional space teleportation of the Ophiuchus microcosm, causing their teleportation target to shift by several hundred feet - this is a fatal distance.

Compared to the private laboratory hidden in the deepest part of the villa, which has a direct connection with the Garden of Eden and is almost always under the sight of God, the open space outside the manor gate cannot be said to be completely without security measures, but it is certainly not suitable for the current large-scale scene.

A powerful magic circle shaped and wrapped by countless divine powers surrounded the writer at the core.

Without any delay, the battle broke out the moment Lin You landed. Led by the "gangster godfather version of Odin" who had met Lin You once, at least six main gods of the Norse pantheon joined forces to launch a siege.

Fortunately, these few were only branch gods in the story world of "God of War", not the true gods of the big world. Otherwise, they would have been able to crush the author to ashes with their first strike together.

However, the current writer is just barely surviving.

The dimensional space was suppressed, external communication was cut off, and within the range of the opponent's preset magic array, even the room for maneuvering became smaller and smaller. Lin You used his microcosm to operate at full capacity, but still ended up in a dilemma.

These Nordic gods who came out of the world of action games really had their own way in a fight; not to mention their skills, their experience and coordination alone were enough to overwhelm Lin You. The more he fought, the more frightened he became, and the more anxious he became.

As the author of the Great World Plan, he had never experienced such a direct violent attack; even Jupiter in the past, when he was secretly plotting, only tried to restrict his freedom.

Although there have been battles of varying sizes over the past few years, upon closer examination, it is found that either the opponent does not know the true identity of the writer, or the opponent does not intend to kill the writer. If the writer chooses the opponent himself, there is often a big gap in strength.

As for those who can surpass the author, they basically know his identity and value, and also know the special nature of his immortal soul.

Even if the writer's body is destroyed, there is nothing that can be done about his soul. The most that can be done is to imprison, hide or exile the soul. But as long as God or other supreme gods step in, it will take at least three to five days, or at most ten days, to rebuild the writer's body and stage a comeback as a king.

In other words, as long as Lin You does not offend those supreme gods, the violent attacks against him will not have any substantial effect.

It is precisely for this reason that Lin You put more thought into how to maintain his relationship with the gods, and paid less attention to his own personal safety; as a result, when he really encountered a group of enemies who wanted to kill him today, he suddenly became flustered.

"Even if you can 'kill' me now, I will be back in three to five days. Why are you wasting your time?" Lin You secretly complained in his heart; he had actually figured it out. What the other party wanted was actually that "three to five days".

To buy three to five days by harming the author is to offend all gods at the same time, considering the important role of the author in the big world plan.

The willingness to buy time at such a huge cost shows that the Norse pantheon is ready for a do-or-die battle.

No, to be precise, it should be said that a cornered dog will jump over the wall.

Lin You was "thinking wildly" in his mind, but his hands were gradually losing the upper hand; not only was the golden armor damaged time and time again, but the "copycat version of Gungnir" also broke through the armor's protection more than once, leaving direct wounds on his body.

Thanks to the incredible healing ability of the Ophiuchus microcosm, wounds can always be repaired in time to prevent further aggravation of the injury; but if you defend for too long, you will lose, and if the situation continues for a long time, it will only get worse.

Even Lin You didn't even have the chance to "defend for long".

In the distance, several figures broke through the night sky and rushed towards the battlefield; the leader was Thor, the god of thunder. They rushed over from Hogsmeade.

It sounds slow, but it is actually fast. From the time when Hogsmeade launched the first attack to the arrival of reinforcements from thousands of miles away on the battlefield, less than two minutes have passed.

The Norse pantheon was carefully designed step by step, just to achieve results in the shortest possible time.

Thor, with his beer belly bulging, took the lead. Before his figure entered the range of the magic circle, the knockoff version of Thor's hammer in his hand was already filled with endless lightning, causing the weather in the small area in front of the manor gate to change drastically; in the blink of an eye, dark clouds covered the sky above the magic circle, and lightning flashed in the clouds, echoing Thor's hammer in the distance.

Inside the magic circle, Odin's spear blocked Lin You's snake scepter at the right time, and the other five branch gods exerted force at the same time, but changed their previous style of heavy punches, and transformed their divine power into a surging torrent; the five divine powers just entangled Lin You's limbs and neck, locking him tightly and making him unable to move.

Above the magic circle, Thor's hammer fell with tremendous force, and Earl Goff in the center of the magic circle was like hammering down a fixed nail.

At this critical moment, a round shield appeared above Lin You's head and collided head-on with Thor's hammer.

In the night, thunder roared out of nowhere, deafening. Endless thunder struck the shield, lightning flashed everywhere, but it could not penetrate the shield at all.

Under the shining lightning, Wonder Woman's calm yet angry eyes shone like stars.

After missing the attack, Thor was pushed back by the huge recoil force, and took the opportunity to narrowly avoid the sharp edge of the God-killing Sword. Wonder Woman also rolled over and landed on the ground, and before she could stand firm, she turned around to meet the other two reinforcements; she was actually one against three, and blocked the three Norse gods including Thor outside the magic circle.

Inside the magic circle, Lin You, who had escaped a catastrophe, almost pushed his microcosm to an unprecedented peak. Under unprecedented pressure, Ophiuchus's microcosm actually showed signs of a breakthrough, and vaguely saw the threshold to a higher level.

As if responding to the small universe on earth, dozens of stars suddenly became bright above the dark clouds and in the Milky Way. The starlight reflected each other, drawing a huge star map; in the map, there was a man and a snake, running vertically across the ecliptic.

The stars were shining brightly, and the light spread in two directions along the ecliptic. Starting from Scorpio and Sagittarius, one constellation after another responded to the changes of Ophiuchus. In a very short time, along the ecliptic, the stars competed for brilliance. The strange astronomical phenomenon attracted the attention of countless observers.

While many people were speculating, a little girl who was originally sleeping soundly in Forest Manor opened her eyes. She twisted her little head and looked around blankly. It took her a long time to realize that she was lying on a familiar little bed.

The four-year-old girl didn't cry or make a fuss. She slowly propped herself up and sat up. Her little head was still moving around aimlessly, as if she was looking for the culprit who "woke" her up. Whether it was a sudden impulse or a telepathic connection, her eyes gradually focused in a fixed direction.

There was no door or window, only a thick wall; if one's eyes could penetrate the wall, they would find that the little guy was staring straight in the direction of the manor gate.

The next moment, Minerva slipped off the crib and ran out of the bedroom with her short legs, completely ignoring the shouts of the awakened old housekeeper, and ran along the corridor to the front half of the villa, lying in front of a large bay window to look out.

Looking out from this window, you can see the main entrance of the manor.

The old housekeeper hurriedly followed in his pajamas, looking out in confusion along the little girl's line of sight. In the night, the front yard of the manor was silent, and the outside of the gate was shrouded in thick darkness.

The magic circle blocks the sight and sound inside and outside the manor.

"What are you looking at, my girl?" The old housekeeper patted Minerva's back gently and whispered to comfort her. He simply thought that the little girl was frightened in her sleep. "There is nothing there!"

"Brother!" Minerva suddenly shouted.

"The young master hasn't come back yet; but when you wake up, you will see him at dawn." The old butler continued to comfort him.

"Brother! There!" Minerva stretched out her little hand and pointed to the door, but her finger hit the glass and was blocked.

Unfortunately, the old housekeeper was so focused on comforting the little girl that he couldn't understand her childish words at all, let alone what was going on; "Brother is not there, there is nothing there!"

Minerva felt an inexplicable force pulsating in her chest, as if it was about to burst out at any time; she was very anxious, but her young age limited her ability to express herself, and she was unable to express her inner intuition to others.

Even the old housekeeper, who was usually the closest to her, could not understand her special state at that moment.

The microcosm of Ophiuchus is resonating with other constellations.

Minerva's tiny figure was reflected on the window glass. The light emitted by the locket on her chest became brighter and brighter, and the energy gathered in her chest became stronger and stronger. Just like magma surging in the belly of a volcano, when the pressure exceeds the bearing capacity of the mountain, it is the moment of volcanic eruption.

Powerful energy gushed out from the young goddess' chest, squeezing through her tender throat and turning into a clear and bright roar.

"Ah..." An uncontrollable sound wave suddenly erupted; the cry from the goddess' first divine awakening contained terrifying energy, which not only shattered the window glass in front of her, but also broke through all obstacles in the transmission path.

The flowers, plants and trees in the front yard of the manor were the first to suffer. The trees were broken, and the weak flowers and plants were lifted up along with the ground by the sound waves and flew all over the sky.

In less than half a second, the sound waves crossed the wide courtyard, broke through the manor gate and a section of the wall dozens of feet long on the left and right, and rushed to a farther place carrying bricks, stones, rubble, and broken branches of flowers and trees.

In the thick night, a muffled thunder exploded on the ground. The terrifying sound waves collided head-on with the magic circle set up by the Nordic gods. Countless rune lines appeared out of thin air in the originally empty place. It was the violent shock caused by the conflict of divine power, which turned into energy light waves visible to the naked eye.

This shock did not break the blockade set up by the Norse gods, but the originally airtight magic circle had been shattered into countless cracks.

The pendant box on Minerva's chest flew up and opened the magic blockade set by Lin You, revealing the true appearance of the gem inside.

For a moment, the manor villa was filled with brilliant light; at the same time, on the other side of the magic circle, Lin You's Ophiuchus microcosm gained three points of power and actually showed a tendency to break free from its restraints.

The two lights have the same origin; the energies of the microcosm echo each other.

As if sensing that her brother was in a difficult situation, Minerva became anxious and subconsciously roared again.

If it was just an ordinary four-year-old girl, this roar would probably be regarded as soft and cute, but if it was a goddess who was about to wake up, this roar was truly awe-inspiring.

The gem that escaped from the locket flew up into the sky with a whoosh, and the light broke through the night, covering the entire range of the magic circle, and even passed through the magic circle and shone on Wonder Woman who was fighting on the other side.

Wherever the gem's light reached, the energy of the microcosm multiplied geometrically; violent energy waves washed over repeatedly. Outside the magic circle, the ground where the magic circle was set up cracked inch by inch in the violent shaking; inside the magic circle, the divine power that bound Lin You stirred each other and was almost out of control.

As more and more cracks appeared on the magic circle, the light of the gem broke through the formation and shone directly on Lin You's holy clothes. At that moment, an indescribable light flashed in Lin You's eyes; behind the light was a dazzling galaxy.

That is the magnificent scene of the Big Bang of the singularity at the beginning of the universe; that is also the mystery of the microcosm after being rewritten by the quill pen and integrated into the power system of the big world.

At this moment, Lin You truly felt that he had touched the realm of true God.

The light of the gemstone was still shining on his body, and with the light as a bridge, a steady stream of energy was transmitted, infinitely strengthening Lin You's power. In an instant, he had gathered more than one mini-universe of the peak period of the Gold Saint.

"This is at least the sum of the Cosmos of three or four Gold Saints." Lin You muttered to himself, "Why not give it a try... Athena's Sigh!"
