God of Victory

Chapter 69 The Failed Ritual

Before walking to the high platform, Thor looked up at Odin who seemed to be so tall forever, knelt down on one knee with infinite excitement, and listened to his next lecture.

"Thor Odinson, my heir..."

Every word of the one-eyed Odin also drives majestic energy, and the pulse of Asgard merges with Asgard's pulsation into a whole.

"My eldest son, the mighty Thor's hammer has long been entrusted to you."

"Forged from the core of a dying star, this hammer is unrivaled in its power."

"It is a weapon to destroy and a tool to build."

"It matches the status of a king!"

"I have defended Asgard since the beginning of time, and the countless spirits of the worlds..."

"But that day has come!"

Odin stared directly at Thor, performing the last part of the ceremony - the spear of Gungnir held in Odin's hand, emitting a holy breath from the tip of the spear.

This weapon, nicknamed the Gun of Eternity, is sacred.The oath made on the tip of the gun can never be undone and must be fulfilled.

When Thor saw Odin use the power of Gungnir, his whole body trembled with excitement!
"Have you sworn to defend the worlds?"

"I swear!"

"Have you sworn to keep the peace?"

"I swear!"

"Do you swear... to abandon all selfish ambitions and only do good things for the kingdom?"

Unable to hide his excitement, Thor raised his hammer and answered loudly, "I swear!"

"So, today..."

"I, the father of the gods, Odin..."

"Announce that you..."

However, at the moment when the super-large ceremony was about to be completed, in the Odin treasure house directly below the main hall, a kind of magic power of a different kind broke out...

An Asgardian soldier patrolling in Odin's vault was brutally killed by a frost giant who suddenly appeared here!
The strange magical power and the wailing of the dead instantly made the ritual magic at its peak in the entire Asgardir go awry... It was like a balloon that was inflated to its maximum state was pierced with a hole...

The energy that was about to materialize instantly flowed back like an ebb tide, heading towards the Odin treasure house below, turning the hall into an energy vacuum in an instant.

And the sudden receding of energy naturally made this ceremony impossible to continue!

Even as the father of the gods who presided over this ceremony, Odin suffered a strong backlash... Most of the original Odin's power in his body was also sucked away because of the high degree of compatibility with the overflowing energy just now!
Such a sudden change is already considered a serious injury!

But, Odin is Odin!Even at such a moment, his expression did not change in the slightest.

The end of Gungnir hit the floor, making a small hole in the floor.

"Frost giant!"

Almost at the same time, feeling Odin's anger, the Destroyer sealed in Odin's treasury came out, and the scorching attack from his head instantly killed three frost giants that slipped in.

Even if they had obtained the holy object of their family, the Frost Box, it was useless... The Asgardian energy that retreated from the main hall has made this place a non-magic area for other energies.

Even if Frey came here now, without using Asgard's divine power, he could only escape first.

Although the vast majority of people in the hall didn't know what happened, when Odin suddenly said the word "Frost Giant", it meant that today's ceremony could not continue.

And Odin almost turned around and walked towards the treasure house.

This made everyone in the hall very overwhelmed.

However, the person who can feel the sudden change of the situation the most should be Thor who is still kneeling on one knee under the high platform.

Just short of the last few words, he has truly become the heir of Asgard.But now, the feeling of being surrounded by warm energy suddenly disappeared, and Thor now only felt an unusual emptiness.

Both physically and psychologically are very empty...so he turned to emotion, which is anger!
who is it?Who caused all this?
Subconsciously looking at everyone, all he saw was worry and bewilderment, and a few were concerned about his current situation, which made Thor feel better.

No, there is one person whose emotions are not like this.

The moment Thor glanced over, he seemed to see his uncle, Frey, the God of Harvest, smiling!

But when Thor really looked at him carefully, he only found his serious expression.

Is it an illusion?

Thor frowned.

But before he could think carefully, someone walked up to him.

"Let's go! Thor, follow Odin to see what happened!"

It was Loki, and his expression was also very bad.

However, Loki's proposal made Thor agree.

Yes, you should follow Odin to see what happened!
Frost giant?How did they get in?
……

When Odin, Thor and Loki came to the lower level of Odin's treasure house together, they saw the tragedy here.

An Asgardian soldier in armor fell to the ground frozen and breathless.And around him, there were a lot of corpses and broken limbs scattered all over the place.

The Destroyer's attack is worthy of its name!

"The frost giants must pay for what they have done!"

Looking at everything in front of him, Thor's anger reached its peak.If there is a living frost giant in front of Thor now, he might just hammer it to death first!

Loki next to him couldn't help shivering.

"They have already paid the price with their lives!" Looking at the box of ice that fell on the ground, Odin turned his back to his two sons, showing a slight fatigue... This is the reason why he decided to leave the hall just now.

Even for Odin, the backlash effect of the failure of the ceremony cannot be ignored casually.

"The Ice Box is safe, all is well."

"Everything is alright?" The furious To'er naturally couldn't agree with Odin's statement, "They have entered Asgard and attacked the treasure house. If the frost giant stole any of the sacred objects here..."

"They didn't!" Odin interrupted him.

Thor was astonished, Odin's attitude obviously did not want to hold the frost giants accountable!
He couldn't accept it.

"I wonder why?"

Odin didn't look back, and continued to look at the box of ice, "I have a truce agreement with Laufey, the king of Jotunheim."

It's just that this kind of answer certainly doesn't satisfy Thor.After all, isn't what happened just now the frost giants' action to break the agreement?

Thor even requested that he directly lead the army to another expedition to Jotunheim, so that the frost giants would feel the pain and be afraid, and dare not fight against them in Asgard again!

Thor wants the frost giants to fear him as much as they fear Odin.

But Odin disagreed.He thinks that Thor wants to do these things, just look at it from a warrior's point of view.From the standpoint of the king, naturally he would not want to take such an action.

"You are not the king yet!"

"At least not yet!"

Odin looked at Thor and said such words, leaving Thor speechless.

Loki watched all this from the side, with a very innocent expression, not showing the slightest hint of joy in his heart that was about to burst into laughter.

You are indeed the god of lies!
……

It was almost completely denied by Odin fundamentally. After Thor came out of Odin's treasure house, he could no longer restrain his anger and lost his temper in his palace.

And Loki stood near Thor, waiting for him to vent for a while before coming to his side.

"It's not wise to come to accompany me now, brother!" Thor continued to be angry after glancing at Loki, "Today should have been my day of glory..."

But now, no more.

Looking at Thor's angry face, Loki almost laughed again.

Odin has announced that the heir ceremony will be postponed, and guests from all walks of life who came here can also go back.

This made Loki really hard to hide his excitement.

But after thinking about it, Loki still came to Thor...he wanted to make Thor completely lose the possibility of getting the position of heir!
"There will be a chance..." is my chance.

Sitting next to Thor, Loki said that he actually supported Thor's idea.

As for Jotunheim and Laufey's solution, they should be beaten until they are convinced.

Since the frost giants can suddenly break into Asgard's defense circle once, no one can guarantee that they will not make a comeback!
These words can be said to be on the tip of Thor's heart.

Thor, who was also mostly muscular in the head, was more than happy that Loki agreed with his idea.

Although the two brothers fought each other when they were young, and Loki even expressed his intention to kill him many times, but when they both grew up, the situation changed...they became really good brothers.

Loki no longer fought him, but became a great help to help him inherit Odin's position.

Therefore, Thor trusts Loki very much.

Right now, Thor really wanted to tell Loki one of his suspicions—that is, he guessed that the Frost Giant might have an internal response in Asgardri!So they can easily come to Asgard.

Therefore, in order for this kind of thing not to happen again, he needs to know who should be inside!
And this internal response already has a candidate in Thor's heart.

But when the words came to his lips, Thor still didn't tell Loki.

After all, this suspicion has no evidence at all, and Thor still needs to think carefully, or he needs evidence.

But such evidence would not appear to him out of thin air.

At this time, many of Thor's friends also came in.They are all comrades who have fought with Thor for many years, and each of them is a seasoned warrior.

Looking at many friends and listening to Loki's comfort, Thor suddenly had an idea.

Since they have no evidence and can't find out who is the insider, wouldn't it be good to ask someone who knows who the insider is and get the answer directly?

Thor's head, which had just begun to think, was once again occupied by muscles.

So he made a decision!
Go straight to Jotunheim and ask Laufey...

Who is the insider!
