Chapter 814 Exchange Blows
Facing the shadow that suddenly attacked him, Thor used his powerful Dynamic Vision to see the attacker clearly, but the attacker's True Identity shocked him greatly.
Even though the shock caused Thor's Brain to briefly shut down, his battle-hardened Physical Body moved on its own. Thor's right hand subconsciously raised Mjolnir to block the attacker's attack.
"Clang!"
The sound, like a bell tolling, was deafening, assaulting the ears of everyone present. The sound and the Force transmitted through his hand also awakened Thor. He steadied his Mind and halted the attacker's further advance.
Thanks to Thor's block, the attacker finally revealed her True Identity. It was Loki, whose Mind had been Controlled by the Sky Hammer.
"Loki..." Thor's expression was complex. He was about to speak again when Loki interrupted him.
"I am Skadi, one of the Worthy under the command of the Serpent!"
Loki gradually increased the Force in her hand, actually managing to push Thor's Body backward.
You should know that, across the entire Nine Realms, those who can wrestle with Thor are few enough to count on two hands. Those who can surpass him in Strength are even fewer, countable on one hand. Loki could never have done this before.
Thor immediately made a Judgment. This was the Power of the Serpent, Kurse. The Hammer not only Controlled the user's Mind but also Enhanced the user's Strength.
"Screech!" Metal Boots scraped against the seemingly invisible Rainbow Bridge, emitting an ear-piercing Sound. Thor had no time to think further; Loki had already begun pushing Thor backward.
'Forgive me, Loki.' It's an Emergency. Thor secretly apologized in his heart. Tyrannical Thunder Power immediately erupted from his Body, and Lightning coiled around Thor like a dragon and tiger.
Thor's muscles bulged. With a roar, he actually threw Loki away. She was also entangled by Thor's lightning as she flew.
Knowing she couldn't defeat him by force, Loki transformed into a streak of green Smoke and evaded the lightning's attack. When she reappeared, she had already landed back on the Rainbow Bridge.
Gripping the Hammer tightly, Loki suppressed the slight spasms in her Body caused by the lightning. This was a normal physiological phenomenon for Creatures. After all, even Asgardian Deities were just powerful and ancient Creatures.
While Loki possessed the Divine Authority of the God of Mischief, she was still just a Frost Giant. Although Odin had used some method to transform her Physique to be similar to an Asgardian, lightning, if strong enough, could still affect her Physical Body.
"Leave Loki to me." Thor reached out to untie the Cape fastened on his Shoulder Armor. "Father, please lead everyone to Midgard for Support."
"You're not the only one who wants to have a heart-to-heart with your Compatriot, Child."
Without anyone noticing, Odin was already standing beside Thor. No one saw when he appeared or how he got there.
"Thor and I will stay behind, Balder! Lead the others to Midgard. Countless Living Beings there need our Help."
"Yes, King." After Balder received the order, the Rainbow Bridge actually forked. Balder immediately led the army onto that path.
The Authority over the Rainbow Bridge rests with Heimdall. And because he can monitor the Mystic Power of the Nine Realms, he had been watching everything that just happened. Naturally, he could Control the Rainbow Bridge to change its path at the right Timing.
Logically, the Serpent should stop these Guys who might weaken his Power, but he knew that if he intervened, Odin would definitely seize the Weakness and strike him hard.
Verbally, he hurled all kinds of insults, but the Serpent knew very well that Odin, now on the God King throne, was no longer the little kid who trailed behind his brothers a thousand years ago. Even he himself lacked the confidence to defeat his opponent.
The Serpent grinned and said meaningfully, "It seems my Younger brother wants to have a chat with me."
"Let's go to the Universe. No Planet can withstand our 'loud voices'."
Odin calmly looked at the Serpent. His words sounded like he was asking for the Serpent's Opinion, but his tone was not at all like he was negotiating.
"And if I say no?" the Serpent said with a smile.
Odin remained calm, saying, "I'm not discussing this with you."
In the next second, a streak of formidable power tore through Space and smashed straight towards the Serpent. The Serpent's pupils shrank, and the relaxed expression vanished from his face. He kicked the Hammer Handle, using the momentum to scoop up and block the Hammer in front of his chest.
"Clang!" A Spear, entirely golden, pierced into the Serpent's Hammer Handle. The Hammer Handle, originally three fingers thick, looked so narrow at this critical moment. The Serpent barely managed to block Odin's Attack.
A drop of cold sweat dripped from his Forehead. Just as the Serpent was about to push Gungnir back, Odin closed in on his side.
Odin grabbed the Gun Body with one hand, accompanied by Power enough to shake the World Tree, pushing the Serpent into a constant retreat, until they both transformed into a meteor and vanished from the Rainbow Bridge.
The once lively Rainbow Bridge, in the blink of an eye, was left with only Thor and Loki. The Situation changed so quickly that neither of them had time to react.
Loki was the first to move. She immediately turned to face the Direction where the Serpent and Odin had left, clearly intending to pursue them. Thor, a step slower, transformed into Electric Light and came up behind Loki, forcefully pressing her onto the Ground.
"Clang!" The sound of the Hammer hitting the Ground. The two also began to wrestle on the Ground.
"Let me go!" To break free from Thor's Restraint, Loki immediately chose to punch and kick. It was also thanks to Thor's excellent Physical Fitness; otherwise, he really wouldn't be able to withstand these Attacks, powerful enough to shake mountains.
"I'm saving you!" Thor exerted all his effort to hold Loki down. "Father's Battle is not something we can interfere with. If you accidentally get caught up in it, you'll lose your Life!"
Loki resisted Thor with one Hand and reached for the Hammer lying on the Ground with her free Hand. Summoned by its Master, the Hammer flew into her Hand. Loki didn't hesitate and immediately swung the Hammer to smash towards Thor's Head.
"Clang!" The Hammer solidly struck Thor's Head. Under the force of Great Strength, Thor flew to the left. After landing, he slid for hundreds of meters before finally stopping.
"My Life was given to me by Father. What's wrong with dedicating my Life to him?"
After Loki finished speaking, she turned to leave. But then, a Hammer wrapped in lightning whizzed past her Ear, and with a "Boom," smashed down in front of her, blocking her path once more.
Loki turned back and saw Thor staggering as he climbed up from the Ground. The Winged Helm was gone from his Head. A large patch of Fresh Blood had stained his once golden Long Hair red. He looked unsteady on his feet, as if he could collapse at any moment.
But, he still stood.
