Chapter 1385: The Gods Unite
Seeing the giant’s appearance, a name immediately appeared in Zhang Heng’s mind.
Heimdall. In Norse mythology, the guardian of the Rainbow Bridge, the god of dawn.
And the moment he recognized Heimdall, Zhang Heng also understood how Heimdall had managed to catch his series of torrential attacks in the dark.
The legendary Heimdall had a pair of eyes that could see 300 miles between night and day. At the same time, his ears were terrifyingly sensitive. He could hear the sound of grass growing, and he guarded the Rainbow Bridge, that was how he was able to detect the presence of the invading enemy at the first possible moment. That was how he was able to blow the horn on his neck, allowing the Asgardian gods to gather to fight.
At the same time, Heimdall and Loki were sworn enemies. In the final twilight of the gods, the two of them perished together.
Heimdall saw Zhang Heng, but he didn’t rush to make a move. Instead, he bowed to the other side of the sky. “It’s a pleasure to fight alongside you.”
It was a young man wearing armor and holding a spear. He was sitting in a four-wheeled carriage. However, unlike the pure black carriage of the evernight goddess, his carriage looked even more ferocious, it was filled with power and a sense of conquest.
He held the reins and nodded, “Odin and the son of Yanesha, the god of dawn, Heimdall. I have long heard of your name. After settling tonight’s matter, we should have many opportunities to continue working together in the war after that.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard another voice. However, that voice was not as polite as Heimdall’s. It was even a little strange, “It’s really lively today. A son of Odin and a son of Zeus are actually here. They are even discussing how to beat us up next. I’m already trembling in fear in the corner.”
“Do you new gods like to be rats so much? Why are you always hiding your heads and tails? You Don’t even dare to say a harsh word in front of me.”The young man in the carriage was not angry. He only laughed mockingly.
“I can’t help it. I’m used to directing and acting by myself.”A man carrying a camera slowly walked out from the forest opposite Heimdall.
Judging from his attire, he looked like a cameraman who was here to shoot a film. He was wearing a khaki vest and a pair of hiking shoes.
However, Heimdall was slightly moved when he saw him. “Movie God, is it you who came from the new God’s side?”
“Why, do you think it’s strange? Three days ago, you found so many people to ambush me, but you didn’t manage to kill me?”The God of movies grinned, “If you’re willing, you can try again after tonight. If you and Ares join forces, you should be able to challenge me.”
“Wait, how can I be absent when there’s such a lively scene?”The one who said this was the god of electricity who had fought Thor previously. He appeared behind the god of movies, the charging device in his hand was fully charged this time. It was obvious that he was planning to go all out.
However, just as the situation was getting more and more tense, another voice with an Egyptian accent sounded, “Everyone, we’re not here to fight, right? Even if we really want to fight, we have to get rid of the target first.”
The person who spoke was a man with the head of a wolf and the body of a human. At first glance, he looked like Seth, who had been killed by Zhang Heng. However, upon closer inspection, one could still see the difference between the two parties. They were different from Seth, the head of the man in front of him was the head of a jackal, and he did not have the chaotic and violent temperament that Seth was born with.
“Anubis, you actually came. Why, are you here to avenge your father, Seth?”The movie God asked.
“Even though I’m Seth’s son, I’ve long since severed all ties with him. I’ve always been displeased by his actions,”Anubis said calmly, “Therefore, I’m here purely to solve our common problem. Everyone, stop chatting and get back to business.”
With that, the gods finally ended their short-lived verbal exchange and turned their attention back to Zhang Heng.
Heimdall was the more polite one, “There’s no hope for you anymore, Kid. We borrowed a prop from the three goddesses of time sequence to deal with the time freeze power that Chronos gave you. Of course, we know that you’re innocent, but it’s a pity that you were chosen to be that Guy’s vessel. Sometimes, in order to protect justice and the happiness of the majority, we have to make some sacrifices.”
“That’s what I hate the most about you old gods. You’re always full of morality and benevolence, but you’re always up to no good,”the movie God sneered. “Can’t you just say it?”He looked at Zhang Heng and grinned, “Brother, for the sake of world peace, we need you to die. The only choice you have now is to do it yourself, or we’ll do it ourselves. Personally, I suggest you do it yourself, because if a real fight breaks out later, you might not even be able to keep your body.”
Zhang Heng also understood that he had reached the most dangerous moment.
After cutting off the night goddess’carriage, his [ hidden scabbard ] finally received an upgrade. It had changed from a Class B item to a class. Zhang Heng did not have the time to examine it carefully, but when he held the knife in his hand.., he could sense the presence of supernatural beings around him. This was also why he could chase after the night goddess, Nyx, even when his sight and hearing had not recovered.
And because of this newly awakened characteristic of the [ hidden scabbard ] , Zhang Heng could sense that the supernatural beings around him were far more than just the six in front of him.
It was just that the auras of these six were stronger, and when they appeared, the other gods chose to continue hiding in the shadows.
Other than that, Zhang Heng could sense another powerful presence approaching. Who could it be? Zeus or Odin?
If it really was one of them, then Zhang Heng was completely in a desperate situation.
Heimdall, who had clairvoyance and clairaudient ears, was the second to sense the presence. He frowned because the presence was unfamiliar to him, but the guards of the Rainbow Bridge didn’t take it to heart, the gods that would be coming here tonight had a common goal.
However, the next moment, a cold female voice sounded in his ear. “Have you asked me if you want to kill him?”
Then, the stunned Heimdall saw the owner of the voice leap to Zhang Heng’s side without a word. Her body was exceptionally large, like a small mountain, under the moonlight, the nine gigantic snake heads stared coldly at the gods before them.
When he met the bartender again, Zhang Heng finally saw her true form.
— the deep sea monster, Hydra.
