Asgardian Domain.

Thor didn't know how long he had been locked up in this dark room, and nothing could help him judge the passage of time. At first he shouted loudly, slamming his fists into the surrounding doors and walls in vain, causing the room to tremble, but it was meaningless.

Then he gave up the struggle and sat quietly in a corner of the room like a prisoner, cursing his father's arbitrariness and cowardice again and again in his heart.

From a very young age, Thor was instilled with the image of his father as brave and fearless, and he had the impression that Odin, the father of the gods, should be an invincible god of war, never fearing any enemy and never running away from any war.

But now, he's not so sure anymore.

He couldn't understand where the legendary brave and warlike Odin had gone, and why the king who led Asgard's iron cavalry to sweep through the Nine Realms had become so weak today, because an enemy who had not even seen him was so frightened that he was entrenched in the God's Domain, and he didn't even dare to attack when he saw the territory that was supposed to be guarded by them suffer great suffering.

He used to worship his father like that, but now looking at this old man, he saw only a stubborn, domineering, and cowardly nasty fellow.

I don't know how long it has been, but there seems to be a strange noise in the direction of the door. Thor was stunned for a moment to see the door slowly pushed open. His former friend Sif stood in the doorway, made a quiet gesture, and beckoned him to follow.

Thor was silent and silently followed. He had been punished on more than one occasion for disobeying his father's will, the most serious of which was when Odin stripped him of his divine powers and relegated him to the atrium. But even at that moment, his most loyal comrades-in-arms did not abandon him, and even went to the atrium to help him in defiance of Odin's wishes.

So it was no surprise that he saw Sif here.

The two of them walked lightly and quickly down the long corridor, which was deserted and not even a sentry could be seen. The fires on the walls swayed in the wind brought by their figures, and the shadows on the walls shook like hideous devils.

"What's going on?" Thor asked.

"It's a disaster, Thor." Sif lowered his voice and said in a hurried tone, "This is the cataclysm that ends in the world. Odin has told us all that Asgard is now in an unprecedented state of readiness. If we don't stop him, the consequences will be devastating. ”

"Who? Who to block? ”

"Serpent, the most feared being of the Father of the Gods, the archenemy of Asgard."

"Well, haven't heard of it. But if it's such a terrible guy in the atrium, we should go to the rescue, shouldn't we? Thor frowned and asked, "Why didn't that old fellow let us go to the atrium to meet the enemy?" What is he planning? ”

"Because the atrium has been abandoned. What Odin is doing is turning all of Asgard into the ultimate weapon, and he's aiming for the Atrium as we speak. In order to defeat the serpent, the atrium must be cleaned. All of Asgard's energy will be released through the Rainbow Bridge, and all living beings in the atrium will be filled......"

Thor had always felt that he knew his father well enough compared to the others, but it was only then that he began to suspect that he still didn't know anything about Odin.

"Slaughter mortals?" Thor was surprised, "No, it can't be, even for Odin it's ridiculous. Although he has always been arbitrary and obnoxious, he can't be ...... And my brothers can't afford to ignore it. ”

"Of course not."

Sif stopped and pushed open a door. The three warriors of Asgard, as well as several warriors who had a life-and-death relationship with Thor, were already waiting here.

"Thor!" The big Vostagger came up and gave him a bear hug, "I'm glad to see you in such spirits." ”

"Not mentally at all, Vostagg, I'm feeling terrible right now." "But now we have no choice. Odin is crazy, and we have to make our own decisions. Even if it's just us, we can go to the atrium and go with the mortals......"

"Thor." Sif closed her eyes and interrupted him, "We're ...... Can't go anywhere. ”

"Not long after you were locked up, Asgard was completely locked down by Odin's orders." Vandal explained, "But we managed to get our hands on Heimdall's sword, and with all of our strength, we can teleport you to the Atrium." ”

"I want you to tell the humans who the enemy they are facing and what is to come...... That's all we can help. Vandal said.

"That mortal last time...... The Black Knight, we and Asgard owe him a favor," Sif whispered, "and if I could, I'd like to go to the Atrium myself and fight alongside him whatever enemy I face...... But I can't. All I can do is give him the most faithful blessings. If it was that human, maybe ...... Maybe we can fight against this prophecy. ”

Although she said this, it was clear that even she did not believe it. It was true that the mortal named the Black Knight had shocked them in the Divine Domain last time, but he also seemed to have used all his strength when he fought Loki, who had stolen Odin's power. Although it was enough to make Sif and the others drop their jaws, and even to this day they are still shocked at how a mortal can exert such a god-like power, it is a pity that that power is still not enough to face this crisis.

Asgard's nemesis, the Great Serpent, has the ability to feed on fear, and the terror provided to him by every living creature on Earth in this crisis will become his nourishment. Under the population base of the earth today, the power of the great snake is far greater than at any time in history, which is why Odin is so jealous, so Odin avoids fighting.

Sweep through the atrium with Asgard's all-out map cannon and destroy the vast majority of humanity, so that the serpent will be deprived of nourishment and its power will be greatly weakened. Only then will Odin personally lead the brave heavenly soldiers of Asgard to descend and destroy the weak serpent forever in one fell swoop.

This is his only solution to deal with Ragnarok. Compared to the prophesied ending of the fall of the gods, simply sacrificing the atrium, one of the Nine Realms, was completely acceptable to him as a ruler.

Although the black knight was incredibly powerful among mortals, the Loki he faced only exerted about fifty or sixty percent of Odin's divine power after all, and he was not on the same level as the current serpent at all. So deep down, Sif still feels that humanity has no chance of winning in the upcoming battle.

It's a pity, I want to at least see him again...... Even if you say thank you in person.

"As soon as possible, Thor, we should at least do as gods." Hogan sighed lightly, "Hurry up and don't ......"

"So as not to do what?"

A majestic voice sounded in the room as if out of thin air, a golden whirlwind swept up, and the armored father of the gods appeared as if in place, looking down on everyone in the room with one cold eye.

Everyone fell silent for a moment. The warriors knelt before their sovereign, and no one spoke...... Except for Thor.

"I'm very disappointed by all of you, but I'm not surprised." Odin walked up to his son and looked at him coldly, "Especially you, Thor. ”
