**Chapter 251: Mission Must Be Fulfilled**
Boom—!!
A series of earth-shattering explosions rang out. Rose-colored flames dispersed the surrounding frost. Hongying’s long spear trembled as it instantly pierced the brows of two frost giants.
Sensing the powerful aura radiating from her, Chen Muye asked in surprise,
“You broke through?”
Hongying swept her spear in a wide arc and grinned. “This trip to Shangjing wasn’t for nothing! That Shangjing City captain, Shao Pingge, is pretty impressive.”
“It’s not just Hongying. I’ve also broken through to the River Realm,”
Wen Qimo said with a faint smile. His fingers interlocked and pressed together at his chest. Suddenly, black threads extended from the hearts of two frost giants, wrapping around them like cocoons and binding them in place.
Immediately after, two pitch-black sniper bullets shot out, piercing the giants’ brows.
Wu Xiangnan and Si Xiaonan exchanged a helpless glance. Out of everyone who went to Shangjing, only the two of them hadn’t broken through. Wu Xiangnan was already in the “River” Realm, while Xiaonan might just lack the talent.
As for Leng Xuan… he didn’t have a Forbidden Ruins to begin with. He relied solely on a relic called the [Mobile Arsenal] and top-tier marksmanship—naturally, there was no breakthrough for him.
Add to that An Qingyu, who, though not in the “River” Realm, had long possessed the strength to fight above his level—among the seven of them, four were now “River” Realm defenders.
With some possessing exceptional individual combat strength and flawless teamwork, the seven of them held the line in front of the toll station, forcibly blocking the surging tide of frost giants.
But even so, An Qingyu’s eyes remained filled with gravity.
From the teleportation gates behind them, frost giants continued to pour out endlessly—and the rate of summoning was faster than the rate at which they were being killed!
If this continued, once the frost giants regrouped into a horde of around two hundred, Squad 136 would have no chance of holding the line.
In other words, unless they solved the problem at its source, they wouldn’t last much longer.
Just then, a transport plane roared across the sky. Its low hum instantly drew everyone’s attention. As it circled midair, eight golden figures leapt from the cabin!
“Hahahaha!! Lin Qiye! I’m here to abduct you! Don’t resist! Just join our [Phoenix] Squad!!”
The blond woman at the front laughed wildly as she fell, while the seven behind her covered their faces in embarrassment, as if trying to pretend they didn’t know her.
“Xia Simeng!! You lunatic! Do you know how serious it is to hijack a military transport? We’ll probably end up in a court-martial when we get back!” Kong Shang couldn’t help but curse.
Xia Simeng replied nonchalantly, “So what? It’s not like we haven’t been there before.”
Kong Shang: …
“But something seems off with this city.” Kong Shang’s gaze landed on the edge of the city, where the chaotic battlefield lay. His brow furrowed. “Is that… Loki?”
At those words, everyone’s expression turned serious—even Xia Simeng.
She frowned. “The Divine War from ten years ago… has it started again? Why weren’t we informed?”
“No idea. Something must’ve gone wrong somewhere.” Kong Shang followed the direction of the frost giants’ charge, his eyes landing on the many teleportation gates. “Captain, your plan to recruit Lin Qiye might have to wait.”
“Yeah.” A rare seriousness appeared on Xia Simeng’s face. “Save people first.”
Kong Shang glanced at Squad 136, who were still fighting fiercely. After a moment’s hesitation, he said, “They’re holding on for now. Let’s destroy the teleportation gates first—otherwise, we’re just treating the symptoms, not the root.”
“Third Brother, it’s up to you.”
Xia Simeng turned to a woman behind her. The woman nodded, her body instantly transforming into a massive fire phoenix. Flaming wings trailed long tails of fire as she dove from the sky, catching the seven midair.
Standing on the phoenix’s back, their golden cloaks shimmered faintly under the thunderclouds as they sped toward the teleportation gates!
“It’s the [Phoenix] Squad,” Chen Muye recognized them at a glance, a glimmer of joy in his eyes.
With a special squad coming to aid Cangnan, this was undoubtedly great news!
As long as they could destroy those teleportation gates, wiping out the frost giants would only be a matter of time.
In the distance, Loki watched the [Phoenix] Squad descend from the sky and shook his head with a cold smile. “Just one special squad—nothing more than slightly larger ants… So what if you destroy the teleportation gates?”
He slowly turned his gaze to the toll station, where Chen Muye was fighting, covered in blood.
“I’ve… already found it.”
Loki stared at Chen Muye, spatial fluctuations rippling around him as he stepped forward, preparing to teleport into the battlefield.
Beep beep—!
At that moment, a crisp electric scooter horn sounded from afar, forcibly interrupting Loki’s teleportation.
Loki froze, turning to see a familiar figure in a yellow uniform riding an electric scooter down the hillside.
Screech!
With a perfect drift, the delivery rider came to a smooth stop in front of Loki. He reached into the insulated box and pulled out a pizza box.
“Hello, your delivery.”
Loki frowned, staring at the young man in the delivery helmet. “How do you keep finding me?”
“Because your name is on my order.” The delivery guy pulled out a crumpled receipt from his pocket. The recipient’s name was clearly written: “Norse Asgard—God of Mischief, Loki.”
And under the item ordered, two words were written in red ink:
—Death.
He tucked the receipt away and said seriously, “MiTuan Delivery—mission must be fulfilled!”
Loki studied him for a moment, then chuckled. “Interesting… What’s your name?”
“Lu Wuwei,” the young man replied calmly. “Just an ordinary delivery rider.”
“You alone can’t stop me.” Loki shook his head. “Of Great Xia’s Human Apex, one’s in the East Sea, one’s in the northern border, one’s tied up with Indra, and another’s in slumber… The [Shiva’s Grudge] is destined to fall into my hands.”
“I know I can’t beat you.” Lu Wuwei quietly fastened his delivery helmet. “I just need to stall you… that’s enough.”
“You think stalling me will turn the tide? With that ragtag squad and a special team?” Loki sneered. “You know nothing of my power… nor of Asgard.”
With that, he raised a hand toward the sky. A massive spatial summoning vortex slowly opened above his head.
