Chapter 1271: Lure the Tiger Away from the Mountain



Seeing Lin Qiye asking the question, Thor did not hide anything and said truthfully:

"I am still investigating his exact identity, but judging from the ability he used to assassinate Loki yesterday and the power of the law he generated when he did it, he is very likely a survivor of an extremely ancient myth."

"Mythical survivors? Which myth?"

"That myth has no name." Thor shook his head and said, "It is the embodiment of the most primitive fear and respect for nature when humans had not yet fully evolved into humans. It is also the basis for all subsequent myths."

Hearing these words, Lin Qiye’s mind suddenly emerged with a scene in which a group of primitive people who had not yet mastered language and writing were kneeling on the ground, kowtowing and worshiping the flames produced by the thunder hitting the trees.

In the eyes of primitive humans, nature is their belief and the source of their fear.

They feared thunder, so they prayed to it in their hearts. They longed for fire, so they regarded fire as the origin of life.

In other words, the ancient myth mentioned by Thor is actually the most primitive embodiment of nature?

"As humans gradually gained wisdom and mastered language and writing, the ancient primitive myths began to be replaced by various complete myth systems due to differences in regions. The original gods gradually withered away, and the laws began to be divided up by the gods corresponding to different kingdoms of God. This is how the many kingdoms of God came into being."

"So, these primitive gods have disappeared?"

"Most of them have disappeared, but there are a few exceptions. With the development of human wisdom, some gods have begun to actively transform the primitive laws they govern into relatively modern laws, and exist in the world in another cognitive form, such as the Outer God last night."

"Him? Which god is he?"

"The God of Assassination and Assassins." Thor paused, "If we are not mistaken, his predecessor is the God of Hunting in primitive mythology.

Since writing had not yet been invented at that time, he had no name either.”

"The God of Assassination and Assassins?"

In Lin Qiye's mind, he recalled the scene of No. 27 killing Loki in seconds yesterday, and he seemed to be thinking about something.

No wonder he killed Loki so easily, even the many main gods present did not react. If his target was not Loki, the god of trickery, if it was any other main god, I am afraid no one could escape.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Qiye walked towards the safe house with the blood given by Thor.

A few minutes later, Lin Qiye walked out with a haggard look on his face.

"How is it?" Seeing this, Thor asked quickly.

"That Assassin God seems to have something that is hiding his fate. Ordinary prophecy can't detect his location at all." Lin Qiye's bloodless lips opened and closed, and he said weakly, "I paid a price and barely got his approximate location an hour ago..."

Hearing this, Thor's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Where?"

"In the snow-capped mountains in the northernmost part of the Giant Country." Lin Qiye paused for a moment and continued, "However, this is only his location an hour ago. There is no guarantee that he is still there now... But if he is seriously injured, he should not have left yet."

"The northern border of Giant Country?"

Thor's brow furrowed slightly.

This place is the northernmost and most remote part of the entire Nordic kingdom. Even for gods, it would take nearly half a day to get there. Moreover, the snow-capped mountains are extremely large. It would take at least a day to search every inch of it.

It took two days to go back and forth.

This assassin god really knows how to choose a place...

Thor scratched his head in confusion and continued to ask, "Can your prediction be more precise? Perhaps it can be narrowed down to the location of a specific mountain..."

Before Thor finished speaking, Lin Qiye's face turned pale again, his legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.

Thor was quick to act and grabbed Lin Qiye.

A few strands of blood oozed from the corners of Lin Qiye's mouth, and he smiled miserably, "Lord Thor, being able to do this... is already my limit... cough cough cough..."

Lin Qiye now looked like a candle in the wind, and he looked like he would die on the spot if the wind blew at all. Seeing this, Thor swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

"...Okay, in that case, you should rest here first, and I'll take the others out."

Thor helped Lin Qiye sit down on the ground, turned around and turned into a ray of lightning, leaving the temple. He should be going to summon Tyr and the Nordic War Department to go to the northern border of the Giant Kingdom to track down the whereabouts of No. 27.

Lin Qiye lay weakly on the stone for more than ten minutes. Only after he was sure that Thor had gone far away did he slowly sit up.

"Success..." Lin Qiye's mouth corners slightly raised.

The information that No. 27 was in the snowy mountains in the northern border of the Giant Kingdom was naturally his nonsense. After saving Sif in the prophecy of the underworld last time, Thor and others completely let down their guard against him and trusted his prophecies even more. Even if he just pointed to a place, Thor and others would try to find it.

Lin Qiye simply pointed to the most remote place in the Nordic kingdom of gods. In this way, when Thor and other gods left Asgard, he would have at least two days of freedom.

These two days are enough for him to do a lot of things.

Sure enough, it was a correct decision to use the Holy Grail to improve the favorability of Thor and others.

After sending Thor and other gods away, Lin Qiye left the temple directly and soon arrived at the abyss dungeon that he had visited yesterday.

Gods such as Thor and most of the combat forces of the Nordic War Department have been transferred away. Now is the best time to enter the abyss dungeon to rescue Jian Ji. Lin Qiye walked to an empty corner nearby, stretched out his hand and pressed in the void, and a gorgeous magic circle bloomed.

A small mummy appeared out of nowhere, hung on his shoulder, and babbled something.

Lin Qiye reached out his hand, touched Mumu's head, and spoke softly:

"Make a wish and stay hidden."

A psychedelic light flashed across Mumu's abdomen, and Lin Qiye's figure began to gradually become transparent. In just a few seconds, it disappeared as if it had completely evaporated.

With Lin Qiye's realm not even reaching the ceiling of human beings, it is nothing but a pipe dream to break into the abyss dungeon of the Nordic Kingdom to rescue people. The only way is to borrow the power of the wish of the [Holy Grail] to give himself a chance to sneak in.

This is absolute concealment, not just as simple as hiding the appearance. The vitality, smell, and the faint airflow generated by movement will all be covered by the [Holy Grail].

Lin Qiye was sure that in this situation, even Fenrir, the evil wolf guarding the abyss dungeon, would not be able to sense his presence.

Lin Qiye carried Mumu on his back like a pendant and walked quickly towards the dungeon not far away.
