Falsifying history is good business

Chapter 399 It's Just a Gamble
Thor's hammer has both physical and magical killing power; when it hit Patrick Morgan, the square hammer head burst into dazzling electric light.

Although it was only a very brief moment, the lightning had already penetrated the barrier of clothes, and the electric current burned the body of the God of Truth; a strong light also burst out from Patrick Morgan, competing with Thor's hammer.

The powerful electric current caused an ionization reaction in almost all objects on the battlefield and generated countless chaotic electromagnetic fields in an instant, but it failed to delay the opponent's steps even for a moment.

Patrick Morgan did not fight back, but relied on his physical body and the power of his godhead to withstand the damage of Thor's hammer, and rushed out without looking back. At the moment when he just left the area covered by the spatial turbulence, the other gods present simultaneously sensed the fluctuations of divine power transmitted through space.

A space channel took shape in an instant, and the body of the God of Truth sank into it; Tyr's sword remained on His chest. The Norse God of War wanted to take back his sword, but when he grasped the hilt and pulled it back, he was shocked to find that the power fell into the air; the sword easily flew out of the space channel.

A large amount of divine blood spurted out along with the sword tip, and at the same time, another shrill scream was heard from the God of Truth.

By this time, Lin You had already reacted; unfortunately, his own means of attack were limited. Several poisonous snakes were used to guard the divinity of Hela and Loki respectively, and the scepter was nailed to Loki's body and he had no time to retrieve it.

At the last moment, the writer suddenly exerted force, directing all the spatial turbulence to rush towards the spatial channel opened by the God of Truth, trying to use the torrent of energy to submerge the opponent's escape route.

Energy is tangible but intangible, and cannot be sensed by the five senses normally; but at this moment, when the energy of space gathered into a flood, all the gods present seemed to hear the piercing sound of strong wind whistling through the hole.

The flood peak destroyed everything in its path, but it failed to destroy the space channel. Patrick Morgan allowed the space turbulence to submerge him, but he managed to maintain the stability of the space channel, giving himself a glimmer of hope.

This approach is actually extremely dangerous, because under the turbulence, it is impossible to accurately obtain the spatial coordinates, and no one knows where the space channel will eventually lead; but Patrick Morgan still escaped along this channel.

To the God of Truth, it didn’t matter where he went at the moment, nor did it matter whether there was danger on the other side of the passage; because no matter how dangerous the place was, it would not be more dangerous than facing three hostile true gods at the same time.

When the space channel was closed, the energy turbulence lost its target and scattered, leaving a mess on the ground.

"Damn, what a quick reaction!" the writer muttered, feeling depressed and regretful.

"His divinity has been severely traumatized, so he should be well behaved for a while." Tyr was not as disappointed as Lin You, because his primary target had been captured, achieving the main purpose of the ambush. It was not unacceptable for a seriously injured God of Truth to escape.

Lin You reminded him unhappily: "But He is not acting alone. There is also an unidentified true god beside Him. Unfortunately, this battle failed to bring out this mysterious god."

"Perhaps this mysterious god does not exist, but is just a disguise, fabricated to cover up the truth that Loki was kidnapped." Tyr speculated optimistically.

Lin You turned his head to look at the body of Loki nailed to the ground and the big belly of the silver snake; "Then we have to ask our God of Lies and Trickery."

Seeing the eyes of the writer and the Nordic God of War turned to him, the accountant, who had been a nobody in the entire battle, raised the "ball" in his hand tremblingly; the severely injured Hela's deity was imprisoned inside.

Tyr casually asked, "How much do you think Hela knows about the truth about Loki?"

"From the few contacts we've had, it shouldn't be that many. The only thing that's certain is that He knew that Loki's kidnapping was fake, and that He had actually been working with Patrick Morgan for a long time."

"Knowing the truth and not reporting it is equally a serious sin." Tyr said solemnly; the laws in the divine world are not as strict as those in the human world, and even their enforcement often seems disorganized.

A very simple example is that in Asgard, Odin's will is often above the law; the reason why the Norse God King abides by the law is just an attitude, a choice, not because he himself is bound by the law.

"How to convict and deal with them is your business in Asgard." Lin You was indifferent to the future of the two true gods. "I promised to work together to capture Patrick and solve the case of Loki's disappearance. I have fulfilled my promise. Now it's your turn." Tyr was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, agreeing with the author's statement: "Of course, Asgard also keeps its word."

"Very good. Then it depends on whether Lord Loki can recognize the current situation." Lin You sneered and gave orders to the silver snake, spitting out the godhead of the god of lies and trickery.

The divine nature flashed with a strange light, swayed slowly for a circle, and finally returned to Loki's divine body. The moment the divine nature and divine body merged into one, Loki suddenly opened his eyes, panting violently like a drowning person suddenly awakening, and took a deep breath of fresh air.

But soon He began to feel suffocated, with a slightly bloody breath filling His mouth and nose, and He coughed repeatedly; because there was still a "spear" stuck in His divine body, and the tip of the spear pierced through His chest, nailing Him to the ground and making Him unable to move.

It took a long time for Loki to calm his breath and emotions; his gaze first fell on the "spear", then turned to the writer and the two Nordic gods, and finally stared at Lin You.

"Why did you choose to help them both?"

"Why not?" Lin You asked with a smile.

Loki's face was full of disdain: "Two straight-minded ruffians, good for nothing except fighting. They are not good at anything but are always causing trouble."

"What's wrong with keeping a simple mind? You and Patrick Morgan are too complicated. I'm always afraid that you will sell me out someday." Lin You said with a smile.

"Just because of this? No, you are not telling the truth." Loki felt it was unbelievable. "Before making the plan, I observed you for a long time, Writer; I know that you are not a superficial person."

"Well, even if he is nailed to the ground, he still looks down on you." Lin You turned around and added fuel to the fire at Tyr and Thor.

Tyr's face was grim as he replied, "Because He always thinks of himself as a smart person, but often his cleverness backfires and he never repents."

Lin You laughed, turned around and looked at Loki again: "You see, they look down on you just as much. It seems that your three views are seriously incompatible and you really have nothing in common. No wonder the story has such a tragic ending as 'Ragnarok'."

"Since you know about Ragnarok, you should understand how dangerous Odin's original plan was." Loki didn't waste any more time and went straight to the point.

"I know, I've always known it." Lin You smiled meaningfully.

Loki suddenly shuddered, and heard the hidden meaning in the writer's words; "You...what do you mean you always knew?"

"By 'always known' I mean I knew it from the very beginning." Lin You continued to smile. "Not from the day when Patrick Morgan falsely informed me of the plan, but even earlier. I knew Odin had such a plan. Not only me, but at least three other supreme gods also knew Odin's original plan."

"You...they all knew it before you entered the time restricted area?"

"Yes, before I entered the time restricted zone. To be exact, when Odin was sure that Patrick Morgan betrayed the Norse pantheon, and I and other Supreme Gods tried our best to stop Him from creating the unknown, He took the initiative to reveal the plan."

Loki was stunned: "Then why..."

"Why did I have to fight with Thor and Tyr for the 'unknown' for several years?" Lin You guessed the other party's question, "It's mainly because Odin didn't want to admit defeat, so the Supreme Gods had to make a bet with Him."
