Chapter 1314: Old City District
“Are you sure this is the place?”
Thor looked around and asked suspiciously. At this moment, he was dressed like a tourist and was standing on an old platform. In front of him was a potholed cement pillar, and above his head was a rusted iron beam, besides them, there were only a few dozen passengers on this platform. It seemed that they were all locals.
“That’s right, this is the place,”Seth, who was also dressed as a tourist, said with certainty. After saying that, he smiled again, “Big shots like you must also be looking at those first-and second-tier big cities. After all, there are enough IMAX screens there. There are also plenty of rich people who are willing to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars to buy a Captain America figurine or your portrait. However, there are still many fourth-and fifth-tier small cities like this place in this country. They are unknown. The only time that outsiders hear about them is probably when they are involved with some weird news about people’s livelihood.
“Although the prices here are lower than those in big cities, the income level is even lower. The economy is not vibrant, and the young people can’t find suitable jobs. In addition to the high housing prices, many people are forced to leave this place to work in big cities. “The population is always in a state of net outflow. The rest are the elderly, so the economic development is even worse.”
“Why are you telling me this kind of thing?”Thor said indifferently, “Let me remind you again. I have already broken seven of your ribs. Tonight, before the sun sets, if you are unable to lead me to my wife, I will break all the remaining bones in your body one by one. Then, I will chop off your head and sew it on the neck of a dog. Anyway, your Jackal’s head is quite compatible with a dog.”
“Correction, my head is actually an animal called a Seth Beast, not a jackal. It’s just that many people have made a mistake and are spreading rumors…”
“It doesn’t matter, I don’t care about this kind of thing.”Thor rudely interrupted the god of chaos. “Quickly lead the way.”
“I’m happy to serve you.”Seth’s temper was very good, as if he didn’t care about the fact that his ribs had been broken. Upon hearing this, he even made an inviting gesture.
The two of them walked out of the train station. Seth waved his hand and stopped a taxi. He said to the driver, “Let’s go to the hard-working road in the Old City.”
Thor watched from the side coldly. He did not say anything. He just let Seth get into the back seat first and then followed him in. It was clearly a back seat that could accommodate three people.., after Thor’s strong body got onto the back seat, it actually seemed a little cramped. The manic aura that he emitted also made the taxi driver’s forehead break out in cold sweat.
Seth looked at Thor’s right wrist that was tightly gripped by Thor, sighed, and said in Norwegian, “With my strength, it’s impossible for me to escape from your eyes. Do you have to watch me so closely? People who don’t know would think that we’re gay.”
Thor sneered, “You’ve already escaped from my eyes once, and you’ve made me bear such a big blame. Do you think I’ll give you a second chance?”
“I told you that it was just a regrettable accident. I’m also deeply sorry for the death of that… unknown side character friend of mine. Moreover, after I learned that you were wronged, I immediately ran to the organizing committee. I didn’t hesitate to turn myself in, just to tell them the truth of the matter and clear your name. But what did I get in return?”
Seth threw up his hands, “I was originally locked up, but you insisted on rushing into my bathroom and snatching me away in front of the organizing committee while I was still in the shower. This is great, now we are both the target of public criticism. Both the old and New Gods are now looking for our whereabouts. To be honest, I have never encountered such a huge situation even when I was at my peak.”
“Who told your people to take my wife away!”Thor’s eyes were wide open, and the veins on his head were bulging. The driver, who was already a little worried, shook his hands, and almost lost his grip on the steering wheel and rear-ended the bus in front of him.
“I’ve told you countless times that your wife’s disappearance has nothing to do with me. At that time, I had already moved into the special cell of the organizing committee, and I also lost my divine power. I was under surveillance 24 hours a day. Before you rushed into the bathroom, I was being admired by a chick from all angles.”Seth looked very innocent, “So it doesn’t make any sense for you to blame this on me. Forcing me to find someone within a day is even more difficult. But even so, I still decided to bring you to the most likely place to try your luck. Don’t you think you should be a little more polite to your new partner?”
“I don’t believe your nonsense!”Thor roared. His spittle even flew over the seat and onto the rearview mirror in front of him, “If you’re innocent, why aren’t you willing to tell us the whereabouts of the god of cell phones until now? Also, what happened at Copenhagen International Airport, and the missing god of machinery is also related to you. In addition, recently, the tension between the new God and the old God has been getting more and more intense…”
“I have to interrupt you here. Recently, the main person who caused the tension between the new God and the Old God isn’t me, but…”although Seth didn’t directly say that name.., his gaze had already landed on the main character.
But before the latter got angry, the god of chaos quickly said, “Actually, the situation that has developed to this point is not a problem for anyone, but a necessity.”
“Here we go again, your chaos theory,”Thor said unremittingly.
Seth didn’t mind and continued, “You have to admit that peace has been going on for too long, longer than ever before.”
“That’s a good thing. People who haven’t experienced cruel wars will never understand the value of peace,”Thor said.
“I’ve experienced wars, so I agree with you. I believe that the gods in the organizing committee, who are as High and mighty as you, will also agree with you. However, this world isn’t just made up of those high and mighty big shots.”
“What are you trying to say?”Thor stared into Seth’s eyes and said mockingly, “Don’t you know that no one will buy your Bullsh * T Now?”
“For those who live in luxury and are high and mighty, order and peace are indeed more precious than gold, but everything has to be viewed from a different perspective. For those who have nothing and are about to starve to death, War and chaos are the only bargaining chips for them to turn the tables, and even their hope of survival,”Seth said.
“Nonsense!”Said Thor impatiently. “Maybe I should rip your head off right now and shut you up!”
