Chapter 426: Purgatory on Earth

From the moment Odin threw Gungnir to its sudden disappearance was just an instant.

Odin was astonished. Gungnir was not truly invincible, but according to his past experience, as long as the opponent's magic was not as good as his own, Gungnir's must-hit effect would be realized.

The opponent was just a wizard, how could he have magic power comparable to a god?

But before he could figure it out, Murphy's attack had already arrived, and several beams of light shone down again. And his strongest attack means disappeared, and he couldn't do anything to those satellites for a while, so he had to turn into lightning to dodge.

While commanding the attack on Odin, Murphy felt a little suspicious in his heart. The back of the person who appeared just now seemed to be himself?

And the thick fog around him was similar to the spirit fog he had seen before.

Could this be another time loop?

Playing with time is not an easy thing. "Time backtracking" consumes huge magic power. Take the Time Magic Box in his hand before, backtracking his own time and sending him to ten hours ago was the limit.

Although in the case of a Time-Turner, time magic will consume the magic power of the entire magic net node through the Time-Turner and will not consume the wizard's magic power, if you repeatedly backtrack in the same time period, it is equivalent to constantly adding load to the magic net. Once it exceeds the carrying limit, it is not impossible to paralyze the magic net.

Therefore, under non-essential circumstances, he would not use this method to solve problems. But in this short while today, he already knew that he would backtrack at least three times, which shows that the future situation might be very bad.

However, besides this, there is another point that he cares about.

When repairing that broken Time-Turner, the power he used seemed to be more than just "repair," but close to a time backtracking, which is why it consumed huge magic power.

This might be due to the particularity of the Time-Turner itself. They still don't understand the principle of this thing, but they roughly understand that it is a magic device involved in the entire magic net. Perhaps it is precisely because of its own "time" attribute that its repair has to involve time.

But if it must use time backtracking to repair, does this mean that he also mastered the power of time just now?

However, Murphy tried to use time pause and time acceleration, but there was no effect, so he had to shake his head, it seems he thought too much.

While thinking, he commanded the satellites to attack Odin, but Odin, like him, possessed the ability of lightning and moved very fast. Even if he could drive four or five satellites to launch attacks at the same time, he could not completely restrict the other party.

Speaking of which, there were too few satellites launched into space. If thousands of Starlink satellites were really deployed in the sky, it would be like a net, and Odin would be hit head-on no matter where he fled.

Finding an opportunity here, Murphy also began to clean up the monsters around Stonehenge. However, after Fiendfyre burned a few times, in a forest, countless wild beast flesh exploded, and finally reshaped into a giant wearing bear skin and holding a giant stick.

As soon as he appeared, he threw a huge cauldron into the air, which could block the burning of Fiendfyre.

Murphy quickly compared his appearance with the database and found that the other party seemed to be the father of the gods in Celtic mythology, Dagda.

The appearance of the giant blocked Murphy's attack, and what was even more terrifying was that those blood mists began to disperse again. The infected animals and insects did not rush to Stonehenge as they did at the beginning, but scattered in all directions, attacking all the creatures they encountered and infecting them into their own kind.

They seemed to be aiming to expand the group first and then perform blood sacrifice.

At the same time, on the west coast of the Atlantic, Brazil, Rio de Janeiro.

Over the originally sunny coast, storms gathered. Before long, a low-pressure air mass formed on the sea surface, and in just over ten minutes, it grew into a level 12 or 13 hurricane.

The violent wind rolled up the tide, pushing the seawater to surge into giant waves of several meters high, one after another, rushing toward the coast.

Such a terrifying tsunami directly submerged many urban areas with lower terrain, and when the tide receded, humans were horrified to find that various huge monsters began to crawl out of the silt—octopuses that were one person tall and could walk on the ground with tentacles, crabs the size of cars with human faces on their abdomens, and even swordfish with a pair of human legs, etc.

As soon as they appeared, they launched a massacre on the whole city.

The giant claws of the crabs could cut an adult in half with one snap, the octopus's tentacles could twist a person into a twist, and there was even a sea shrimp that jumped on a person's head and chewed the whole head to swallow it...

This scene, which seemed to appear in horror comics, appeared in reality. Ordinary people were scared out of their wits and couldn't raise any resistance at all. For a time, this world-class tourist city, the pearl of Brazil, became a purgatory on earth.

Murphy and Lucas also immediately noticed the situation in Rio through satellites, and they immediately understood that this was a backup left by Tyr when he descended last time, but they didn't expect it to develop to such a scale.

Rio is far away in Brazil and is not in Murphy's sphere of influence at all, so it is impossible to set up a magic barrier like London.

At the same time, Rio, as the former capital of Brazil, had a population of more than 5 million. Facing this kind of disaster, Murphy couldn't just throw bombs or Fiendfyre to clear the field.

Obviously, this was a long-planned attack.

"Send the Countermeasure Bureau!" Murphy made a prompt decision and said to Lucas, "Immediately get in touch with the Brazilian wizards and provide support!"

Those sea monsters killing people is naturally not without reason. It is very likely that they are also performing blood sacrifice, so they must be stopped.

And Murphy looked around London and frowned. The battle here cannot be dragged on any longer.

An instruction was issued through the command system to several combat units. After repeated confirmation by superiors, several bombers took off from the RAF Brize Norton base and reached the target airspace in a moment, launching carpet bombing around Stonehenge.

At the same time, Murphy stopped using magic satellites for beam attacks. The intensity of the beam was enough, but the range was too small, and Odin's speed was too fast. The speed of the satellite's angle adjustment couldn't keep up at all.

If you want to take him down, you must use range attacks.

Thinking of this, he closed his eyes, controlled several satellites to reach the designated position through Apparition, then formed an antenna array, making the spell range cover an area of 30 kilometers below.

Then he raised his perspective, extracted a large amount of mental power from the heart network to increase the spell intensity, and then recited the spell, "Petrificus Totalus!"

A vast fluctuation descended like a mountain. Everything it passed seemed to be turned into stone and became stiff. The flying birds in the air fell down one after another, and even Odin's body stiffened, unable to turn into lightning and escape.

However, just an instant later, everything returned to normal.

With the magic power on the magic satellite, it was not enough to petrify things in such a huge range, so Murphy just exhausted the magic power of the Magic Stone and sent out an isolated wave pulse.

Its fluctuation amplitude was very large and the level was very high, but it only lasted for a moment.

However, this moment was enough.

Murphy appeared behind Odin the moment the isolated wave passed, patted him, and sent him into a huge glass box in an underground laboratory.
