Chapter 1250: Prophecy Advisor
Upon hearing 22's words, the four Asgardian deities simultaneously examined Lin Qiye with curiosity.
"A prophecy art that toys with the gods?" Vidar seemed to have thought of something, his eyes narrowing slightly.
At the same time, Lin Qiye also quickly reacted, his expression turning grim.
He seemed to know what 22 was trying to do.
"Miles, correct?" Tyr, the War God, pondered for a moment. "Where is the God of Prophecy and Magic, Merlin, whose proxy you serve?"
"His老人家 has gone to pursue the truth of the world and should not be on Earth." Lin Qiye answered truthfully.
"Good enough."
Tyr, the War God, stepped forward, gripping Lin Qiye's shoulder with a palm like an iron clamp,死死 clamping down on his body!
A torrent of divine might flooded into Lin Qiye's body, rendering him completely immobile. Dense beads of sweat rolled down his temples, and instinctively he wanted to unleash the divine pressure from the Seraph and other gods to resist, but he managed to control himself in time.
"Tyr, what are you doing?" Thor frowned at the sight.
"After Odin fled after being exposed for siding with the Cthulhu gods, Mother lost her sanity and sealed herself in the palace, ignoring all external affairs. Besides the three goddesses, Asgard has no other gods capable of prophecy.
The three goddesses maintain strict neutrality and do not intervene in our affairs or Loki's. They also won't provide prophecies for us...
This boy's prophecy art comes from the progenitor of prophecy, Merlin, and appears capable of predicting divine movements to a certain extent. This is too important for us right now." Tyr, the War God, explained slowly.
Thor opened his mouth, as if wanting to say more, but after hesitating for a long while, he closed his mouth anyway.
Tyr was right. What they needed now was a force capable of divining divine movements, even if the prophecies were vague—it was still better than nothing.
"Release him first."
Thor grabbed Tyr's wrist and pulled it away from Lin Qiye. The latter felt the pressure weighing on him instantly vanish, and couldn't help but stagger backward half a step.
"Miles, correct? No need to be nervous." Thor's deep blue eyes gazed steadily at him.
"Would you be interested in coming back to Asgard with me?"
It was phrased as a question, but the other gods clearly didn't intend to give Lin Qiye many options.
Feeling the stares from Tyr, the Blind God Hodr, and the Forest God Vidar, Lin Qiye felt cold sweat seep down his back. It was as if the moment he uttered a single "no," Tyr would lop off his limbs with a sword and drag him back to Asgard as a human棍.
22's mouth curved slightly upward, as if he had anticipated this scene long ago.
Lin Qiye glanced at Jinian beside him out of the corner of his eye, and she winked at him.
"...Fine."
Countless thoughts flashed through Lin Qiye's mind in an instant, but in the end, he nodded in agreement.
Actually, Lin Qiye wasn't without alternatives.
As long as he used the Holy Grail to make a wish, he and Jinian could easily escape from the four deities, but the sacrificial offerings for the wish would be greatly consumed. Even if they escaped, they might not be able to use the Holy Grail to infiltrate Asgard again later.
Since Thor wanted to use him as a subordinate and directly recruit him into Asgard, it would be better to go along with it. Not only could he enter Asgard openly, but he could also conserve the Holy Grail's sacrificial offerings for future use.
Upon hearing Lin Qiye agree, Thor nodded with satisfaction. Just as he was about to say more, the Blind God Hodr suddenly looked at Jinian beside him.
"And you... who are you?"
Wearing a white mask, Jinian lowered her head in silence.
"She's my..." Lin Qiye immediately spoke up.
Before the last two words could be uttered, Hodr coldly laughed, his right hand shooting out like lightning, striking toward Jinian's face!
Jinian reacted extremely quickly, her身形 darting backward, but the distance between them was truly too short. The hurricane generated by Hodr's strike was like a blade, instantly slicing through the mask on her face and leaving a faint bloodstain at her temple.
The mask shattered, revealing silver-white long hair and that stunningly beautiful face to the open air. Jinian's expression was dark and gloomy.
"I remember you. You're the intruder who infiltrated Asgard two years ago." The Blind God Hodr spoke calmly.
"I locked onto you before you fled Bifröst."
"An intruder from two years ago?" The expressions of the other three Asgardian deities tightened.
Jinian gritted her teeth, raised her fingertips, and the sea surface beneath her feet instantly decomposed into countless pixels that surged into the sky, engulfing her figure.
Pixels swirled wildly through the air, coalescing into the雏形 of a spacecraft. Deafening pixel flames erupted from the rear, sonic booms exploded through the air, and within a breath's time, it had already flown several kilometers.
"Think you can escape?!"
Thor forcefully hurled the silver hammer in his hand toward the clouds. The next moment, a bolt of lightning dozens of meters thick tore through space, striking the spacecraft with pinpoint accuracy.
BOOM—!!
Thick smoke rose from the wobbling surface of the spacecraft. Countless pixels spiraled up from the sea surface, repairing the damaged structure of the craft.
At the same time, three divine shadows flew out in succession!
Boiling divine power clashed with the漫天 pixels, but in less than half a minute, the Blind God Hodr had escorted the injured Jinian back before Thor.
"How should we handle this?"
"Go ahead and kill me if you have the guts." Jinian's bloodstained face was lifted high. "Kill me, and you'll never find the 【Gjallarhorn】!"
Thor slightly frowned, pondering for a moment.
"Take her back to Asgard and have someone interrogate her properly. We must recover the 【Gjallarhorn】."
Hodr nodded. A wisp of darkness slithered out from his sleeve like a serpent, transforming into a long rope that死死 bound Jinian's wrist.
"You just said she... is your what?" Tyr, the War God, narrowed his eyes, staring into Lin Qiye's gaze.
Apart from Thor, the other deities looked at him with undisguised ill will.
This woman had stolen the divine artifact 【Gjallarhorn】 from Asgard merely two years ago—she was a key criminal wanted by all the Norse Gods. Now you're involved with her?
Cold sweat drenched Lin Qiye's back.
As expected, the misfortune brought by the Star Coins wasn't going to end easily.
Lin Qiye paused, then continued, "She's my guest."
"Guest?"
"She came to me for a prophecy. Before we could complete the transaction, you arrived." Lin Qiye quickly used his identity as cover, weaving together a lie.
Tyr, the War God, frowned even more deeply, his eyes glowing with a fierce light as he stared into Lin Qiye's eyes. After a long moment, he slowly turned his head.
"Thor, this Miles might be suspicious."
Thor glanced at him, pondering for a long while. "Take them both back to Asgard and lock them up. After interrogating this woman and confirming they have no connection, then we can employ his prophecy."
Tyr nodded, casting a threatening glance at Lin Qiye before following Thor and the others as they flew forward, Hodr in tow with Jinian bound.
As he turned, Jinian, who had been hanging her head low, suddenly lifted it slightly, seizing the opportunity to wink at Lin Qiye.
A smug smile spread across her lips.
