Chapter 37: Mutual Fear
In the gloomy sky, thunder and lightning roared through the dark clouds, and above the stormy sea, huge monsters stared coldly at the figure in front of them.
With his crimson hair, knotted muscles, arrogant and conceited countenance, and the iconic warhammer in his hand, he was able to stand proudly in the midst of a chaotic world even though he was surrounded by storms and torrential rains.
The serpent knew him and knew who he was.
"Thor. β
In the depths of the originally angry pupils, there was a rare amount of calmness and solemnity.
Thor, or as the poor people of Northern Europe call him, Donar, is the god of the poor and the peasants, the god of strength and thunder and lightning, always keen to fight, but always has a little mercy for the poor, although the character is violent, but not annoying, the eldest son of the god king Odin, the most powerful of the gods, his war hammer MjΓΆrnir is invincible......
People have always been unstingy in their praise of this Thor, but for this guy, the big snake has only one evaluation of him.
"Very strong. β
This guy is the strongest of all the creatures that the Great Snake has seen, and it is precisely because of this that the Great Snake did not directly choose to go all the way violently and recklessly like other times, but temporarily chose to suppress his anger and regain some sanity.
Although the serpent has a dull mind, it is not without intelligence, and this dullness is more reflected in its logical deduction ability and calculation ability, because it is not a very intelligent creature itself, but in other aspects, even because it has no distracting thoughts, it has a little more than ordinary people's unique keen intuition.
And the truth that he is always accustomed to being reckless all the way through is also very simple......
If violence alone can solve the problem, then why should you use your brain?
When your body becomes bigger and bigger, so big that the mountain in the eyes of ordinary people is just a grain of sand to you, and the lake in the eyes of ordinary people is just a drop of water to you, your attitude towards everything will be different.
A bunch of things that aren't even motes, do you have the qualifications to use your brain?
Just as the big snake has always been very clear, in the depths of the sea where he is lying, there is a deep sea palace, and the old sea god Egil, who has long hated him, has not even concealed his hostility towards himself, so that the strong hostility can be clearly perceived by the big snake, but it has never done anything.
Without him, it's just an ant.
In the eyes of others, the old sea god is a god, he has existed since before the birth of the world, and even the god king Odin has to respect the old sea god for three points, but in the eyes of the big snake, it is just a bigger ant, and the stronger ant is just an ant after all.
When it comes to ants, there is no need to use your brain.
Just as humans don't use their brains to play any tricks with ants, in the eyes of the big snake, there is no need to use any brains about these motes.
Sun, moon, stars, gods, giants......
All these things are just small specimens of dust in the eyes of the great serpent, and they are not worth mentioning.
Eat when you want, kill if you want, sleep when you want, why care about the opinions of those little reptiles.
But......
Thor clearly doesn't fall into this category.
In him, the serpent felt a powerful force, a force that was enough to make him jealous.
There is no need to use your brain when dealing with ants, but for a strong enemy that is enough to compete with you, you need to use your brain.
......
"Get out of the way. β
Under Thor's gaze, the behemoth, most of his body hidden deep in the sea, looked at him coldly, and then, a low roar sounded, and the air trembled beside Thor.
The serpent spoke for the first time.
No, it didn't open its mouth at all, but its spirit was so large that the slightest power it leaked out at random was enough to affect reality, and the air trembled with it, forming a voice that seemed to speak.
And that intonation is hardly to say that it is speaking, because the sound is not at all human can make, but more like the low roar of a beast.
"I thought you couldn't speak. β
Listening to the serpent's silent roar, Thor's face was full of war, and he laughed wildly.
"Ants are not qualified to talk to me, they are not worthy. β
The serpent looked down at Thor beneath him, and there was no trace of humanity in his cold pupils.
As he spoke, two violent tornadoes poured out of its nostrils, and the violent tornadoes blew into the sea, rolling up countless waves, producing huge waves that made Thor's red hair flutter in the wind.
The serpent's pupils became unusually cold.
"Get out of the way, the sun is mine, and I don't mind your offensive behavior towards me as long as you get out of the way. β
With the deep voice of the serpent, the sea became more and more uneasy.
"Boom Rumble......
Above the sky above, the dense dark clouds were still there, and the thunder and lightning seemed to feel that the two monsters below were confronting, not as violent as before, and became a little quieter.
The Sun Chariot, which was trying to escape from the serpent's sight and fly back into the sky, had not been able to escape too far, and with the speed of the serpent, it could directly stop it at any time and swallow it back into its belly.
Provided, of course......
There is no word that seems to be small, but in fact is arrogant, and invincible Thor stands in front of the big snake.
Thor sees the Great Snake as an old enemy, and the Great Snake doesn't see Thor as a strong man.
Although his eyes are empty, Orochi's fear of Thor is an indisputable fact, and this jealousy makes Orochi try to solve the problem for the first time in the form of dialogue and compromise rather than violent crushing.
In Orochi's opinion, he has given Thor enough respect.
But Thor apparently doesn't necessarily think so.
"What if I don't?"
Thor said word by word, and the hideousness and excitement in his eyes became more and more high.
"Then you're damned!"
For the first time, the serpent's deep voice was filled with anger.
Under Thor's gaze, its eyes took on an unsettling scarlet color, becoming extremely terrifying.
It raised its head, and this overly violent movement caused the entire sea to boil violently, and the majestic posture of the heavenly sea made the great snake look like the master of the entire dark and chaotic world.
"There are no gods who will come to help you, and those ants are not qualified or afraid to participate in the confrontation between you and me...... You're going to die here, Thor. β
A thick threatening voice, mixed with the sound of furious wind and waves, rang in Thor's ears.
In the face of this already undisguised naked threat, Thor's face became more and more excited, his face was full of hideousness, and he laughed wildly.
"Naturally, they won't come to my aid, because ...... Just one of me is enough!!"
Before the sound of wild laughter fell, Thor suddenly jumped to his feet and roared, and the warhammer in his hand, Mjolnir, immediately swung towards the head of the serpent.
And on the other side of him, the great snake that had already been preparing to attack also opened the abyssal jaw and pounced on him violently.
