Chapter 1076 – The Empty City

　　Asgard.

　　Circle of Man.

　　Under the dusky sky, flying sands rolled wildly in the barren Gobi, and in the corner of this small world, a dilapidated slum, was dead silent at the moment.

　　The thick bloody gas flowed in the open space in the center of the slum, and a few black crows that were pecking at the fuzzy corpses seemed to have sensed something, fluttered their wings, and swiftly flew up into the sky.

　　Looking from high up in the sky, this huge open space of the slums was blackly piled with corpses.

　　Elderly people, children, stray dogs, and even women awaiting labor with their bellies high and dead, piled up like garbage, and at a cursory glance, there were close to 10,000 people. Judging from the corrosion of the corpses, these corpses had not died for more than a day.

　　And in the center of these tens of thousands of corpses, a mysterious symbol was carved with a black bizarre silk thread, like an eye, and like a snake’s mouth.

　　Suddenly, that mysterious symbol rapidly brightened, a black silk thread crazily plundered the flesh and blood from the surrounding corpses, and the tens of thousands of corpses in the open space were drying up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and at the same time, a man’s figure was rapidly outlined in the void.

　　Whew-!

　　With all the corpses air-drying into ash, Loki sat up violently from the ground, that pale face covered in sweat, with the remnants of shock still in his eyes.

　　He calmed down in place for a while, reached out his hand, covered his forehead, and looked up helplessly into the dim sky:

　　”Is this the strength of a Heavenly Exalt?…… Luckily, I came to the ‘Circle of Man’ last night and kept a hand, or else I would have really died.”

　　He slowly stood up from the ground, casually glancing at the ten thousand rough cloth garments scattered around him, reaching inside the closest one for a moment and pulling out a black insect egg.

　　This was the one he had forced into the stomach pouch of the person in the slums after he had killed them, so that even if something happened to his resurrection ceremony, this worm egg would not be easily discovered.

　　He took out a small knife and cut open the surface of the worm egg, and a single bloodworm crawled out from within the egg, quickly converging into a red eyeball.

　　”Righteous brother, how is the situation there?” Loki looked at the eye and opened his mouth to ask.

　　Prick-la!

　　At the top of the red eyeball, a small mouth suddenly split open, like a row of fine fangs, gently opening and closing:

　　”Daode Tianzun and Vishnu are still after me, I can’t get away.”

　　Odin’s voice came out from it.

　　Loki nodded slightly, “Now that the other god kingdoms should have also noticed the Supreme God War, righteous brother your secret can’t be hidden for much longer……. In a short period of time, you can’t go back to Asgard again, change your shelter.”

　　”I know.” Odin paused, “Next, what is your plan?”

　　”This time, I used my doppelganger to sneak into Daxia, but I found quite a few things.” Loki seemed to have thought of something, and a color of playfulness appeared in his eyes, “The Great Xia God decimating High Heavenly Plains in such a high profile, plus setting a ten-day appointment with you, righteous brother, in full view of everyone, should be to shift all of everyone’s attention to Asgard’s side, to cover up the truth of his entire staff leaving, using the Great Xia’s art of war, this should be called the …… the empty city plan.

　　Their goal, in fact, is not Asgard at all, but another place …… exactly where, I have already basically guessed.”

　　”Another place?”

　　Loki’s eyes narrowed slightly as he slowly reported a name.

　　Odin was silent for a moment, “Then what are you going to do?”

　　”Oh, the more chaos they make, the better for us.” Loki laughed coldly, his narrow eyes emitting a cunning light, “I …… certainly want to pour a fire on their plans, pour a fire on them.”

　　Greece.

　　Olympus.

　　”Supreme God War?”

　　Under the thunderclouds, the explosively muscular Zeus looked as if he had sensed something, raised his head, and looked in a certain direction, and after a moment, his brows wrinkled slightly, “There is something strange about Odin’s godly power …… How did Vishnu join forces with the Heavenly Father of Daxia?”

　　He pondered in place for a long time, his face growing more and more grave.

　　”Aglaia.”

　　”Father God.”

　　A woman who radiated light all over her body stood silently behind Zeus.

　　”Things seem to be a little off …… Pass the order down, in recent days Olympus is completely blocked, no one is allowed to go out, you personally go to Asgard, to see what is going on.”

　　”Yes.”

　　The woman took a step back and her figure gradually disappeared into the swirling light.

　　India.

　　Temple of the Heavenly God.

　　In the ancient temple, the golden Buddha statue in the very center that stood atop the sky shook slightly.

　　The heads of the Buddha, which were facing the four sides respectively, opened their eyes at the same time, and some dust shook off from the statue, slowly turning in the direction of the temple gate.

　　”Vishnu …… Odin …… Cthulhu ……”

　　A low voice came out from the mouth of the Buddha statue.

　　A few moments later, inside the empty Buddhist temple, the temple door gradually closed.

　　Bang–!

　　With a muffled sound, the temple door was blocked in death, and the entire ancient temple, completely cut off from the world, was silently suspended in the void.

　　Egypt.

　　Sun City.

　　Above the nine heavenly divine pillars in the center of the city, five figures were kneeling and closing their eyes, slowly restoring Egypt’s national fortune.

　　Right at this moment, on the tallest one, the Sun God Pillar, a silhouette opened its eyes, looked in a certain direction, and let out a light eep:

　　”The Heavenly Father of Daxia and Odin fought …… How did a Vishnu still mix in? Those Buddha statues from the Heavenly God Temple, did they rebel to the Great Xia side?”

　　”Somewhat strange.” The wind god Hugh on the side suddenly opened his mouth, “India’s Heavenly God Temple, is in addition to Japan’s High Heavenly Plains, the most mysterious god country …… rumor has it that the strength of that group of Indian gods is unfathomable, even if it’s Daxia, the head-on battle may not be their opponent, before they have joined the alliance, it doesn’t make sense that they suddenly turn back to the Da Xia and turn against us.”

　　”Perhaps, there is an even stranger thing.”

　　The God of Life suddenly opened his mouth and pointed to the two vacant divine pillars on the side, “Nephthys and Nuit went to explore the situation of the Grand Xia, it has already been ten days, why haven’t they returned yet?”

　　The many Pillar Gods present simultaneously fell silent.

　　”Ten days is just ten days, not too long, perhaps they have encountered some trouble.” Only after a long time did Wind God Hugh slowly speak.

　　”The situation in the mists right now is a bit strange.” Above the Sun God Pillar, the silhouette pondered for a moment, but still said, “We’d better blockade the Sun City for the time being, wait and see what happens, and wait until the relationship between the three – Asgard, Great Xia, and the Heavenly God Temple – becomes clear, then we’ll make a move.”

　　”Good.”

　　The remaining few Pillar Gods were fine with it, and at the same time, they urged their divine power and introduced it into the divine pillars underneath them, completely blocking off the space around Sun City, making themselves completely independent of the world.

　　Only after doing all of this did the silhouette on the Sun God Pillar sigh slightly.

　　Just then, a voice leisurely sounded from behind him:

　　”Would it be a little too late to think about closing the door …… now?”

　　The silhouette’s figure lurched, and he quickly turned his head, only to see that in the nothingness above Sun City, a Daoist hand holding a golden flower was standing there quietly with a smile on his face.
