Chapter 1143 - 639: God of Age Speeds Through the Mythic World
"You’re going alone?"
"I’m going alone."
Shen Sui said confidently.
Wang Ming was speechless.
"This is the first time I’ve heard of a Life Card Master going to the Soul Card World alone, leaving the Soul Card in the real world." He frowned. "Is that even possible?"
"Just because you can’t, doesn’t mean I can’t."
Upon hearing Shen Sui’s words, Wang Ming was once again speechless.
You’re not even bothering to put on a show anymore, are you?
Wait... He never really did put on a show, did he?
"Alright. Stay safe." Wang Ming didn’t continue to question Shen Sui’s words, just in case the guy decided to demonstrate his legendary prowess on the spot.
The fabled Twilight Bishop.
Who knows how terrifying his true power really is.
"By the way, if you’re ’going on a business trip’ alone, is Alice going to be okay?" Wang Ming asked worriedly.
People are always prone to double standards.
Even Wang Ming couldn’t escape this.
If someone like Alice were in the Soul Card World, she’d be Alice the Great of the Innate Card-Swiping Saint Body.
But in the real world, she could be a potential threat capable of destroying the world.
Just look at the Soul Card World she messed up!
The Immortal Realm was even worse—she swept away half of it.
"Isn’t she busy preparing for the Duel exam lately?" Shen Sui said with a smile. "Can you even spare her time to think about anything else?"
"Besides, I’ll be back soon." He paused, continuing to reassure Wang Ming, "Others at home will also keep an eye on her."
Back soon...
Aren’t you going to retrieve Haral’s head?
With such high-level combat, how fast can you really be?
Thinking about it, Wang Ming was concerned once more: "Are you really okay going alone?"
"You’ll know when I return."
Saying this, Shen Sui revealed the card in his hand. It was a Soul Card from the Mythical World that Wang Ming had brought.
Since Haral’s last known location was in Northern Europe, Wang Ming specifically selected a Soul Card from Northern Europe, afraid that Shen Sui might end up in the wrong place, causing unnecessary trouble.
After saying so much, Shen Sui stopped wasting words with Wang Ming.
Aided by the liberation of the card, his consciousness descended into the Nordic region of World No. 2.
Shen Sui opened his eyes, subconsciously checking his own body.
Looking at the axe in his hand, he was slightly stunned.
It seemed this time he wasn’t wearing his own clothes but had become the character he once controlled in the game, just like the time he retrieved the data of the Twilight Bishop.
Axe...
This legendary development team is really something.
Is it to cater to domestic players, or just a desire to create abstract art?
In the European Mythological Trilogy, the main character’s settings all come from Eastern mythology.
And in this generation of the Norse Divine System game, the main character was designed to be a Lankai Person.
Back then, the Lankai Person missed the time to descend from the mountains due to watching immortals play chess, and when trying to descend, he got lost amidst fog and ended up in Northern Europe.
With time passing too long, the axe’s handle had rotted, so, being a professional woodcutter, he selected a very nice-looking tree with the intention of chopping it down to make a new handle.
But the local guild was too rude, jumping out to stop him.
And that’s where the opening animation ends. What follows is the story of the Lankai Person, with axe in hand, sweeping through the entire Norse Divine Realm.
Midway through the game, players discover that the tree he intended to chop down for a handle was actually the World Tree, rebirth after destruction.
Think he’d stop chopping it? No!
The Lankai Person remembered that because he was too absorbed in watching the game, the wood he previously chopped had long since rotted.
Determined to make amends, he decided to nurture the World Tree until it was mature, then chop it into firewood for repayment.
You tell me, what the heck is this insane plot!
But you can’t deny, it’s truly a good hack-and-slash game. Anyway, Shen Sui enjoyed killing in the game without any regard for the absurdity of the plot.
Every time he encountered a cutscene, he’d quickly click to skip it.
This time, Shen Sui awoke again.
He immediately saw a hammer upon raising his head.
Thunder God?
Shen Sui turned his head and saw a stunning girl.
Oh, a cross-dressing Loki.
"You!" Loki just started to speak but was directly split in half by Shen Sui.
"Sorry, I’m in a hurry." Shen Sui didn’t bother with nonsense and acted decisively.
In the game, he also followed this approach.
Whenever facing a boss, the opponent’s opening lines weren’t even finished before he’d charge up and hack them down.
As a result, the usual performance effect was: the opponent makes a grand entrance and starts trash-talking, halfway through which they switch to giving last words.
Then Shen Sui would skip the opponent’s last words and move on to the next god to slay.
"Darn it! I should’ve asked him how to get to Asgard..."
Standing up, looking at the shattered sky and earth before him, Shen Sui pursed his lips in frustration.
He should think before acting next time.
Then he looked down at the man who was now only half a body: "By the way, what’s your name again?"
"Tyr..."
"Why did you crash into my axe?"
"Darn... it was... you... who slashed me..."
"Oh, well, sorry about that." Shen Sui scratched his head. "Can you tell me the way to Asgard? Or where Odin is?"
But before Shen Sui finished speaking, Tyr gasped his last breath and became points of light.
"Darn it, he’s not going to the Heroic Spirit Hall, is he? Oh wait, I remember I’ve already smashed it up."
