Stupid Odin

There's a term in the world called "sunk cost"!

The Sumerian god-king Enlil is now a gambler with bloodshot eyes. After losing twenty Sumerian gods in one go, he'll suffer a huge loss unless he destroys the Jormungandr world.

Success or become a clown.

If he loses a main god like the sun god Utu and gains nothing in return, Enlil won't even be able to hold onto his position as god-king. The world is a cruel place.

The last time Enlil was ousted from the throne, he was simply bathing with the goddess Ninlil in the sacred river, doing some intimate things on the side. He was punished by the gods for desecrating the sacred river and was temporarily removed from his position.

In the end, desecrating the sacred river was not a matter that would damage the overall situation; at most, it was a defilement of tradition.

This time is different. The world is damaged and urgently needs nourishment.

Although the Sumerian world doesn't have a world will with a clever mind, the instinct for survival will still drive the gods and creatures living in the world to seek salvation.

As the saying goes, if you don't save the world, the world won't save you.

If the world can't hold on and shrinks in size, it will naturally target the gods who occupy the most natural resources.

This is a high-stakes gamble that must continue!

Either win the gamble, and the world becomes rich and even advances.

Or lose the gamble, and the world is finished, torn to pieces.

But the more Enlil wants the Sumerian world to approach that strange world with a true * towering tree, the faster the other world retreats.

To the point where Enlil, the god-king and wind god, is getting anxious: "Is there no one who can do something to stop that damned world?"

Enlil looked around and finally had to turn his attention to the most intelligent of the gods.

"Enki! Give me an idea!"

Enki is the god of wisdom and water, and also the eldest son of the sky god Anu, and the brother of the wind god Enlil. In the Sumerian world, he was the one who proposed creating humans and then using humans as slaves to support the entire Sumerian pantheon, so that the six or seven generations of gods who toiled all day to support the high-ranking gods could be freed from their heavy labor.

The story of Enki creating humans, and then humans multiplying too much and disturbing Enlil, resulting in the god-king ordering the destruction of humans three times, would take three days and three nights to tell.

Anyway, compared to Enlil's brutality and disregard for life, Enki's approach is more gentle.

Seeing that the battle situation was unfavorable, this god, whose body was surrounded by several streams of water as flexible as snakes, sighed deeply: "My brother, have you considered whether we can choose to coexist with it if we really can't take this world?"

"No! Absolutely not! I will never share the power of the god-king with any being! Destruction is the only fate for the other side! I want you, Enki, to find a way to destroy them, not to coexist with those despicable enemy false gods!"

Enki sighed inwardly.

His younger brother is such a crude and wild being.

He doesn't allow any dissenting voices and will only force all beings in the world to act according to his will.

Knowing that Enlil's three attempts to exterminate humanity were all out of selfishness, Enki couldn't stop him and could only secretly do small things to preserve this spark of hope called [Humanity].

This time, the war was launched too hastily, so that Enki didn't even get a chance to contact the other side.

Compared to fighting for the so-called hope of victory, Enki is more worried about what will happen if they can't win.

Unfortunately, there's no turning back once the arrow is shot.

When Tang Si 'saw' the Sumerian world begin to accelerate through his divine sense, he curled his lips: "From a world down to an ordinary family, everyone has the right to start a war. Starting a war is easy, but ending it is difficult! You're breaking the rules right from the start, you'd better just die!"

In his vision, the Sumerian rock world, resembling a giant planet, began to accelerate.

As everyone knows, accelerating requires paying a price.

What Tang Si didn't expect was that the Sumerian god-king was ruthless enough—Enlil's method was actually to sacrifice his own world's sun.

This is really hard to hold back!

The fall of the sun god Utu meant that, for Enlil, the remaining sun would eventually extinguish itself.

Rather than waiting for the sun to extinguish and become a useless object that doesn't emit light or heat, it's better to make use of the waste and convert its remaining energy into the power to propel the world forward.

In his vision, the huge Sumerian world was like a giant comet, dragging a long golden tail flame, and began to accelerate towards the Jormungandr world.

Honestly, if it were another Jormungandr god-king, they probably wouldn't have a good way to deal with this rogue-like close combat tactic.

The volume of a world is enormous.

Tang Si could even imagine that once the Jormungandr, with only energy-type world barriers, was approached, with the impact force of a world, it would probably lose three or four of its existing ten worlds. Either the middle layer or the lower layer, there would always be an unlucky one.

Fortunately, Tang Si had rich experience in giant object duels.

Uh, the so-called experience, of course, comes from various novels, animations, and comics on Earth.

In this kind of duel of volumes, light cannons and the like are often of little use.

The most prominent difficulty is that the energy consumption is too large, and it is difficult to cause enough damage and destruction at long distances to stop the opponent's charge.

It's like facing a mad bull. Unless you have earth-shattering power and can use a sledgehammer to directly headshot and kill the bull, the most appropriate way to deal with it is to disrupt its balance.

The Sumerian world is getting closer!

Even closer!

As long as they have a bit of divine vision, beings can even 'see' the huge walnut-like shell through the world barrier.

The Sumerian world is so huge that it can even block some of the dim, unclear light from the chaotic universe, making the Jormungandr world slightly dim.

At this moment, patches of green light flashed in the direction of the roots of the World Tree.

This scene scared Enki, the Sumerian god of wisdom and water, so much that he almost cried out. He clearly saw that those were not green patches of light at all, but super long whips composed of huge, slender roots.

These roots extended beyond the world barrier, rotating in mid-air, and then twisting together like braids, eventually forming a super thick rope.

Finally, Enki felt that he wasn't mistaken. A cold and cruel voice came from the opposite world: "The Sumerian gods just need a good whipping."

A black shadow spanning between the two worlds swept across from 'bottom' to 'top', sweeping across half of the Sumerian world's outer shell.

At this moment, the entire Sumerian world heard their sky god Anu let out a piercing scream that resounded through the heavens, and a huge gap shattered in the middle of the massive rock shell.

Countless fragments of fractured rock were sucked into the chaotic void, and at the same time, a large amount of chaotic energy poured into the Sumerian world from the void.
