Seeing Tyr leave, No. 22 also breathed a sigh of relief, came to Lin Qiye and said with a smile:
"As expected of you, Miles, you actually let him release us so quickly, but..."
He paused, looked down at the sword wound on his shoulder, and frowned slightly. "However, this wound is indeed a problem. Tyr's sword remembers the taste of our blood. No matter where we run, he will catch up with us... It's a pity. If only the [Holy Grail] was here, we could just make a wish and use a little trick like this to quickly solve the problem."
Lin Qiye spoke expressionlessly:
"We have to eat one bite at a time. Being able to escape from the cage temporarily is already a good start. Moreover, the Rainbow Bridge is broken now, and the entire Asgard is completely closed. Even without this wound, we can't escape."
"So what do we do next?"
"There is no other way. We can only take it one step at a time." Lin Qiye said calmly, "Although we can't get out, our lives are not in danger here. As long as we wait for a few more days... maybe there will be a turning point."
No. 22 nodded silently.
"By the way, what's the matter with No. 27? Why did he appear in Asgard? He is actually a god as well?" No. 22 asked in confusion, remembering the scene where No. 27 instantly killed Loki just now.
"I don't know who he is, but it's best not to reveal the fact that we know him now, otherwise there will be more suspicion about us."
“…Yes, that’s true.”
The two walked along the road in front of the temple for a while without speaking. Now that they were able to leave the cage and move freely, their minds became active.
Finally, Lin Qiye spoke first:
"You go and recover first, I'll go around."
No. 22 was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go first."
The two said goodbye to each other with a smile, and then Lin Qiye walked straight ahead along the main road of Asgard.
Seeing Lin Qiye’s figure gradually going away, No. 22 narrowed his eyes slightly.
"You want to get rid of me... Humph, I want to see what tricks you have in secret."
No. 22 knew very well that although the two of them were polite on the surface, they both wanted to kill each other in their hearts. This was what Lin Qiye had done in the underworld before. However, the difference between the two was that Lin Qiye could directly find an opportunity to kill No. 22 and keep his secret, while No. 22 had to rely on Lin Qiye to leave Asgard first, and then he could find a way to kill him.
Without Lin Qiye, it would be extremely difficult for No. 22 to escape from Asgard alone.
Judging from the situation, No. 22 has been suppressed by Lin Qiye and is at a disadvantage. If Lin Qiye continues to take more initiative, he will be completely controlled.
No. 22 broke off one of his own fingers and flicked it out gently. The bloody fingertip quickly squirmed into a ball of flesh, then split into several soybean-sized worms, which followed Lin Qiye closely.
…
Lin Qiye walked on the roads of Asgard without attracting much attention.
Asgard is not home to only gods. To be more precise, the number of gods in this kingdom is very small. The majority of people here are maids and guards who serve the gods. Just like in the ancient dynasties of Daxia, there were not many royal relatives who actually lived in the palace. The majority were maids, eunuchs, and guards who served these royal relatives...
Lin Qiye looked around and saw many maids in gauze clothes walking quickly on both sides of the road. Their realms did not fluctuate much, and most of them were around the "Chuan" realm. Some were holding gorgeous divine clothes in their hands, while others were carrying sweet fruit baskets on their wrists. They looked extremely hurried.
As for the Nordic war guards who rode their war horses and passed by at a high speed, most of them were "Wulian" or even "Klein".
In addition, there are also humans like Lin Qiye who are obviously from the outside world, but their number is very small, and they all have an expression that says "keep away from strangers". If Lin Qiye guessed correctly, they are the agents of the Asgard gods.
"Um?"
Lin Qiye's eyes fixed, as if he had noticed something, and he glanced behind him.
Is someone watching me?
Although he did not use his mental power to perceive, the feeling of being watched made Lin Qiye feel instinctively uncomfortable. After hesitating for a moment, he carefully dispersed his mental power bit by bit, searching his surroundings without disturbing any gods.
Finally, a few small meaty bugs appeared within his perception range.
No. 22...this guy is really haunting us.
Lin Qiye snorted in his heart.
He pretended not to notice and continued walking along the main road with his hands in his pockets, turning from time to time, stopping from time to time, and looking around curiously from time to time, as if he was really a wandering tourist.
"Is he really just spinning around?" No. 22, who saw the scene clearly through the small meaty bugs, thought with some doubt.
Of course he didn't know that in Lin Qiye's brain, every street he was walking on was corroborating and overlapping with the map he had previously remembered.
He is planning his course of action.
From the Temple of Thor, to the Square of Miracles, to the Rainbow Bridge.
In his mind, he kept simulating how, after obtaining the Holy Rainbow Sword, he should rush to the Rainbow Bridge from any corner of Asgard at the fastest speed, where he might encounter enemies, which terrain might be beneficial to him, and which places were dead ends.
Although he didn't have a specific action plan to get the Holy Rainbow Sword, whether it was stealing, cheating, or robbing... In short, he had to prepare for the worst.
There was another crucial reason, he had to find the dungeon where the memorial was.
Lin Qiye crossed two streets in succession and slowly stopped in front of a dark temple. More than 20 members of the Nordic War Department, wearing black armor and seven or eight meters tall, were guarding outside the temple. They looked like tall stone statues with solemn and awe-inspiring expressions.
Lin Qiye's eyes swept across the tightly closed huge door behind them, and he calmly took a step forward and continued walking into the distance.
His brows furrowed slightly.
How to avoid the Nordic war department and sneak into the dungeon while being targeted by Tyr's sword is a big problem.
Moreover, the map only marked the location of the dungeon, without drawing the internal structure. With the Nordic War Department guarding it, Lin Qiye did not dare to rashly use his mental power to infiltrate and test it. How to find the location of the memorial was also a problem.
Lin Qiye walked along the road while thinking, and finally came to a wide and magnificent square. The ground was paved with white stone bricks. Even though countless feet had walked on it, it was still spotless, holy and mysterious.
Lin Qiye looked up and saw a small black hill towering in the center of the square. When he got closer, he could vaguely recognize that it was a statue of a god.
The surface of the statue was covered with a layer of black gauze, completely concealing the statue's face.
Lin Qiye used his mental power to scan the statue, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
This is the statue of Odin, the former Norse god king.
