Chapter 136: Life-and-Death Struggle (910)

Atop a towering skyscraper that pierced the clouds, a tall figure mounted on an eight-legged steed gazed from afar at a hotel not far away.

The raging storm whipped His robes so they snapped and fluttered loudly.

Rainwater slid ceaselessly down the spear in His hand.

"Constantine." The voice from the tall figure's mouth was drowned out by wind and rain. "I told you, the beacon of fate has already been planted. You will ultimately meet the fate of death."

As He spoke, He raised the spear in His hand.

The next instant, the spear was hurled forth like a bolt of thunder.

At this moment.

Inside the presidential suite on the top floor of a five-star hotel, every hair on Li Ang's body stood on end.

He had now realized that Odin had probably not modified any memories, but had instead chosen to come in person to kill him.

After all, once he, the chief culprit, was dead, none of the subsequent events would ever happen.

Before Li Ang could react, a spear had already shattered the massive floor-to-ceiling window and arrived right before his face.

Gungnir!

'Was it planted on me last time?'

'No wonder He could find me so quickly.'

Li Ang thought as he gripped the spear shaft with all his might, trying to stop it from piercing through his skull.

However, when facing the genuine Gungnir hurled by the true Odin, he was clearly outmatched.

Fortunately—

"Odin!!"

A terrifying roar pierced the heavens, echoing back and forth through the storm.

Hearing the voice, Li Ang couldn't help but feel a wave of relief in his heart; he knew he didn't have to choose to immediately return.

The next instant, layer upon layer of alchemical matrices materialized before him, and these matrices immediately bound Gungnir.

Atop the skyscraper.

Upon hearing the somewhat familiar voice, Odin's expression couldn't help but falter: "Norton!?"

He hadn't expected that his 'brother' would be unaffected by the world's restart.

How could that be!?

Odin was absolutely certain that the other party had not yet mastered the Time Reversal of the Seven Great Kingdoms of Alchemy; otherwise, two thousand years ago it would have been impossible for him to sit idly by and watch his younger brother die.

Moreover, based on their last encounter, He could also judge that Norton had not been recovering his own strength for long.

As for having mastered the Seven Great Kingdoms in such a short time—

What kind of joke was that!?

Before He could think it through, amid a tremendous roar, the steel reinforcing bars used in constructing the building were already ripped out by an invisible, colossal force, and were then smelted on the spot into a massive metal greatsword.

At the same time, a pure-white figure burst out from the top floor of the nearby hotel, rapidly closing in on Odin's position.

And whenever the pure-white figure was about to run out of momentum, a massive block of metal would appear beneath his feet.

This person was naturally Li Ang; with Laotangde Gang's help, he had temporarily escaped the threat of Gungnir.

And next, as long as Odin was dealt with, the matter concerning the dragon race would truly be wrapped up.

As for why he was so confident—

That was naturally because Odin's current state was extremely poor. This Nordic God-King had neither devoured Fenrir's Dragon Bone Cross, nor usurped Bai Wang's power, and on top of that, restarting the world had cost Him an enormous price—

Li Ang had no idea where He got the confidence to come looking for him.

A mage with residual blood actually dares to show off in front of a tanky warrior!

"Odin, prepare to die!"

Li Ang grabbed the massive metal greatsword that had appeared beside him at some unknown point, and then leaped into a downward slash aimed at the figure atop the skyscraper.

At this moment, the torrential rain was split into two, and the gale kicked up by the greatsword shattered the skyscraper's windows.

Watching the alchemical weapon about to fall on His head, an irrepressible, boundless fury rose in Odin's single eye.

"Seeking death! Constantine!"

As His words fell, Gungnir instantly broke free of Laotangde Gang's restraints and returned to His hand.

The next instant, it was a clash of spear tip against sword edge.

Unfortunately, the alchemical weapon hastily forged by Laotangde Gang was ultimately no match for the Gungnir in Odin's hand, which represented 【Sure Hit】.

The massive body of the greatsword began to shatter inch by inch, the fragments crashing down around Odin.

Seeing this, Li Ang was not surprised in the slightest.

An invisible domain instantly unfurled, and the shattered greatsword transformed in an instant into a vast ocean of metal, which then completely engulfed Odin.

Word Spirit · Heaven and Earth as Furnace!

Who says support skills can't be used in combat!

It was at this moment that Laotangde Gang, standing atop a block of metal, drifted over to the rooftop.

He looked at the scene before him, and a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes, but it immediately turned solemn: "Odin—"

"You're merely someone who awakened a few years earlier than me."

"Don't forget, I am the King of Alchemy! You are the challenger!"

This Bronze and Fire King even wondered if it was because he had slept for too long, and the world had already forgotten his attainments in alchemy.

Admittedly, he was not yet able to achieve Time Reversal.

But leaving behind contingencies to remind himself that the world had undergone changes—such a trivial matter was still very easy for him.

At this moment, the already-solidified ocean of metal had Odin firmly trapped in its midst, leaving only a single head exposed.

And upon hearing Laotangde Gang's words, this Nordic God-King fixed his furious golden single eye intently on Li Ang and the other man not far away: "Bronze and Fire King—"

"Excellent! I never expected that within such a short time, you would have already made some progress across the Seven Kingdoms!"

To be honest, Aoding never anticipated this—otherwise, It would never have acted so recklessly.

Even the best man may stumble; even the finest horse may trip.

Even after Li Ang had stripped the Sky and Wind King bare of all secrets, Its judgment of the situation still slipped slightly.

But would Aoding surrender?

The answer was obvious: no.

Amid a furious roar, Aoding shattered its metallic restraints, raising its spear toward the heavens.

It still possessed the power to overturn the table.

"You think you've already won!?"

"I have gone far, far beyond you!"

As soon as It spoke, Lao Tang seemed to realize something, his face instantly changing.

Li Ang was no fool—he stomped the ground and shot forward as a white blur toward Aoding's position.

Yet the next instant, a thick bolt of Lei Ting slashed down from storm clouds covering half of Brooklyn.

Boom—!

The blinding lightning pierced heaven and earth.

It forced Li Ang to halt his movement.

Now, under Li Ang and Lao Tang's gaze, Aoding slowly ascended into the sky, spherical bolts of lightning flickering and crackling around It.

Lei Ting exploded; the wind howled.

The area near the skyscrapers looked like the end of the world.

This was

Primordial Authority: Indra's Wrath!

The apocalyptic Word-Spell unique to Long Wang!

Even though Aoding was now utterly weakened, this Word-Spell still displayed its full glory.

"Come, Nuodun!"

"Let me see if your Zhu Long has regressed!"

The Sky and Wind King issued a challenge to the Bronze and Fire King.
