Mythology: Ragnarok

Chapter 290 Ragnarok 3

The terrifying energy of the dragon's breath dissipated in the void after a long time. When the light faded, Odin and Zeus appeared before Agreed, both covered in wounds. Agreed then charged forward, intending to press his advantage and kill a few more high-ranking gods to completely seal the victory.

This action completely startled Odin awake. Originally, Odin planned to continue fighting and wait for the lower gods to come to his aid, but now it was clear that he couldn't hold out until then. So Odin used his divine power to amplify his voice so that his message could reach the ears of all the gods in an instant. Odin shouted, "The battle is lost! Retreat to the World Tree immediately!"

The lower-level gods on the battlefield below were already suffering greatly from Warwick and his men's attacks. Upon receiving Odin's order to retreat, they immediately rushed to open the beacons of the Rainbow Bridge and teleport back to the World Tree.

You might be wondering, how could Warwick and the other monster leaders, who numbered only a hundred, possibly cause tens of thousands of believers to flee in disarray?

The most crucial reason was that before the great war, Agreed distributed the power of faith that the Kingdom of All Races had nurtured him over the years to his monster leaders. The faith accumulated throughout the multiverse over the years was immense, and in an instant, the divine power of faith within these monster leaders was elevated to a level comparable to Thor. Of course, in terms of actual combat ability, they were still far inferior to Thor, but with the absolute difference in divine power, these monster leaders were more than capable of crushing lower-level gods. In other words, tens of thousands of lower-level gods were fighting against hundreds of beings whose divine power was no weaker than Thor's, not to mention that among them were Warwick, the Minotaur, Tiga, and Anubis, whose combat power was no less than that of higher-level gods.

With multiple amplifications, the monsters under Agreed's command could be said to be able to defeat a minor god with a single blow. With absolute superiority in quality, quantity became meaningless. In fact, all the lower-level gods had been forcibly holding on, hoping that Odin would end the battle soon. So, regardless of the outcome, they only wanted to return to the World Tree as soon as possible to avoid this calamity.

Therefore, it is understandable that these lower-ranking gods fled as if granted a pardon after receiving Odin's order to retreat. After all, who is not afraid of death, especially those who have gone through countless hardships to become gods?

But just as Odin and the others were fleeing into the World Tree, Agreed became unhappy. "You think you can just run away after beating me up? You wish!"

Argreed then activated the magic 'Spatial Destruction' to instantly destroy the spatial teleportation of the Rainbow Bridge. However, Argreed did not leave behind all the gods. To be more precise, he only left behind one god, and that god who was left behind was naturally the God of Light, 'Baldr'!

Baldr stared blankly at the empty void. All the other gods had been sent back to the World Tree by the Rainbow Bridge, while he was clearly left alone to face the terrifying dragon before him. Agred grinned, baring his fangs, and 'greeted' Baldr with a smile, saying, "Looks like it's just the two of us left, little darling. Have you thought of your last words?"

The God of Light, Baldr, raised his divine sword and pointed it at Agred, roaring, "Beast, don't be so smug! I'm not that easy to kill!"

Now that Agreed is about to avenge his great grudge, he is no longer in a hurry. He knows that Odin and the others do not have the courage to come back. After all, all the high gods are injured and have not yet recovered. If they dare to come, Agreed has the ability to keep them all here.

Agreed shouted mockingly at Baldr, "Oh, great God of Light, how did you end up like this today? Do you remember the choice you gave me back then? Today I'll give you a choice too: kneel down and be my dog, and I might spare your life."

Upon hearing this, Badr was somewhat bewildered and asked, "Choose? Did I know you before?"

Agrede said in a gradually cooling tone, "You got that sword by stepping over the corpses of me and my best friend. Do you think we know each other?"

This reminder finally brought it to Baldr's mind. He looked at Agreed in surprise, then suddenly burst into laughter, taunting, "So it's you, you piece of trash! You're still alive, and you've become such a powerful monster?! You should really thank me for killing your whole family thousands of years ago, otherwise you wouldn't be where you are today, hahahahaha!"

Badr's provocation did not affect Agreed's emotions in the slightest; after all, it was just a vicious dog's dying roar, so let it bark.

"I was probably like you are now when I was dying, saying harsh words as if that would help me escape the fear of death. In reality, I was terrified. The more desperate I was, the less I dared to stop talking, because the quieter I was, the more afraid I became."

Agreed instantly exposed Baldr's guilty conscience, causing Baldr to immediately stop his incessant sarcasm. The intense shame after being exposed turned into anger, causing the god of light to lose his mind. Baldr raised his divine sword and rushed over, swinging it to strike Agreed.

Arged calmly transformed into Surtur, wielding the Demon Fire Sword. In just a few rounds, he knocked the already disoriented Baldr to the ground and seized the divine sword that originally belonged to Pushkin from his hand.

Seeing this, Baldr did not give up resisting and frantically launched an attack on Agreed with the power of the God of Light. Agreed smiled disdainfully and then flicked his hand, and with a snap, Baldr's entire body was directly ripped apart. Baldr's damaged body turned into golden light and scattered throughout the void. Suddenly, the runes on Baldr's body lit up and all the golden light flew back to Baldr's body, restoring his body to its original state.

At that moment, Baldr seemed to remember something, and instantly regained his confidence, shouting loudly at Agred: "Hahaha, how could I forget? I have the 'undying rune' left on me by my mother Frigga. Nothing in this world can kill me. Even if you are a thousand times stronger than me, so what? I am immortal!!"

Agreed looked at the ignorant Badlton with a mixture of pity and contempt, then 'earnestly instructed' him: "You little idiot, let me tell you a piece of common sense. Nothing is immortal except for absolutely powerful beings. If this rune were truly that powerful, Odin would have equipped himself with it long ago. Your so-called 'immortality rune' is nothing more than a 'source rune' among runes. Its function is merely to reassemble the particles on your body that are not completely destroyed in a way that consumes very little energy. As long as there is microscopic level destructive power, this rune is useless. And in my eyes... heh, just a toy. Speaking of which, I do have something good to give you!"

After saying that, a seed sprouted from Agreed's hand, and then Agreed slapped the seed into Badr's head.
