Chapter 1280 – Guns

　　”Asgard’s ‘human circle’?” Lin Qiye asked suspiciously, “What happened?”

　　”Loki is preparing to rearrange the Substitute Death Formation in the ‘Circle of Man’.”

　　”Scapegoat formation?”

　　”Loki has a special secret technique that can cheat death itself and transfer his death onto 10,000 ordinary people through ‘trickery’, this is also one of his biggest secrets.” Si Xiaonan spoke calmly.

　　”Using ten thousand lives to transfer his own death?” Lin Qiye’s brows furrowed, “So, as long as he kills enough people, he can never die?”

　　”It’s not that simple, there is a limit to the Substitute Death Formation death transfer.” Si Xiaonan’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Over the past few years, I have been secretly tracking down Loki’s weaknesses, which includes this Scapegoat Death Array.

　　Firstly, the Scapegoat Death Formation must be set up in advance, and the time of death for 10,000 lives must be within three days, once Loki’s time of death is after the three days of the Scapegoat Death Formation’s setup, this formation won’t take effect.

　　Secondly, the scapegoat formation could only take effect once in a short period of time, and he could not achieve continuous resurrection by arranging multiple scapegoat formations.

　　As long as the location of the scapegoat formation is found in advance and artificially destroyed, Loki will not be able to be revived.”

　　Lin Qiye nodded thoughtfully, “And in Asgard, the only place that can have so many lives for him to set up a scapegoat formation is the ‘Circle of Man’……”

　　”That’s right.” Si Xiaonan’s gaze fell on the symbols reflected in the lake, “That’s why I asked Leng Xuan to stay in the ‘Circle of Man’ and specifically keep an eye on the movements there, since Loki was preparing to impact the Supreme in plain sight, he would definitely be prepared, and it seems to be correct now… …”

　　Si Xiaonan picked up a sharp stone from the side and leaned over the edge of the lake, carefully carving something.

　　After carving, she slowly stood up from the ground and picked up the leaves from the nearby forest, sprinkling a handful of them on top of the lake, fluttering and swirling with the wind.

　　”There are less than two days left until Loki impacts the Supreme.” Si Xiaonan turned his head to look at Lin Qiye, “Memorial told me about your mission …… Are you ready?”

　　”Almost.” Lin Qiye nodded, “Saul and the others were sidetracked by me to go to the northern border of the Giant Kingdom, during this time I’ve secretly figured out where the Holy Rainbow Sword is located in the temple, as long as I pass the signal to Daxia a day in advance, on the day that Loki impacts the supreme, I’m certain that I can snatch the Holy Rainbow Sword and open the Rainbow Bridge for the Daxia God.”

　　”…… That’s good.”

　　”But before that, I have one more thing to do.” Lin Qiye pondered for a moment, “Do you know about the Three Goddesses of Fate?”

　　”The Three Goddesses?” Si Xiaonan raised an eyebrow when he heard the name, “What are you looking for them for?”

　　”I need them to help me save someone.”

　　Si Xiaonan was stunned, and after hesitating for a moment, he still opened his mouth, “The Three Goddesses are the most mysterious amongst the Asgardian Gods……. They live in seclusion in the mountains and forests all year round, and don’t get involved in any disputes in the outside world, and even though I know where they are, even if you go there, they may not be able to help you. ”

　　”No matter what, I have to try.” Lin Qiye said solemnly.

　　The only ones who mastered the law of time flow and could compress the time of Calan’s slumber to allow her to quickly awaken were the three goddesses of fate of Northern Europe, Lin Qiye had tried to use the [Holy Grail] to make a wish, but the sacrifice was far too poor, thousands of years of time and law was not something that could be exchanged by two or three main gods, it was hard as hell to try to do it unless one was in charge of the corresponding law.

　　Si Xiaonan nodded when he saw Lin Qiye’s serious and solemn demeanor:

　　”Alright, I remember that their secluded location isn’t far from here, I’ll take you there now.”

　　Northern Europe.

　　Dwarf Country.

　　Blazing embers fluttered in the air, this westernmost region of the Nordic God Country was almost surrounded by a towering volcano, and on top of the barren earth, countless steel and iron furnace-like buildings stood in the dim dome of the sky.

　　Clang – clang – clang – clang!

　　The dull sound of heavy hammers striking metal echoed like thunder inside one of the buildings, the heavy door was pushed open, and the creaking sound was completely drowned out by the sound of hammering.

　　Cloaked in a black cloak, Leng Xuan walked into the building from behind the door, a wave of heat pounding his face, reflecting that cold face into a dark red.

　　He frowned slightly as he walked straight towards the center of the hall, the raging pillar of fire that was spewing out.

　　This building had no roof, the surrounding walls were like bamboo shoots gathering towards the sky, a hollow with a radius of tens of meters was directly above, emitting the thick smoke produced by the burning pillar of fire, beside that pillar of fire, a short old man with a bare upper body was using a huge hammer bigger than the upper half of his body to hammer hard on a piece of metal in the pillar of fire.

　　The short old man’s bronze-colored skin was already oozing with sweat beads, but the pair of small and concentrated eyes were staring at the metal in the fire with light, completely unaware of Leng Xuan’s arrival.

　　Leng Xuan also did not open his mouth to disturb, he walked slowly along the edge of the hall, his eyes swept over the divine weapons hanging on the wall, and finally landed on the corner of a table above a few black pills.

　　He pinched a pill with two fingers and brought it to the tip of his nose, where he could smell a pungent minty fragrance.

　　”That’s the Wake Up Pill that I’ve recently developed, as long as you consume one, you’ll be able to forget about pain and fatigue, and explode with amazing strength and speed in a short period of time.”

　　I don’t know when, the short old man who kept hammering on the metal, has stopped the action in his hand, wiping the sweat on his forehead while slowly speaking, “I’m already old …… on forging, some of my strength is out of reach, recently I will occasionally use this to enhance my physical ability, if you are interested, I will give you a few pills. ”

　　Leng Xuan was not polite, casually grabbed a handful of pills from the corner of the table, stuffed them into his pocket and turned to speak:

　　”Where are the things I want?”

　　The short old man slowly walked down the steps, and out of nowhere, he pulled out a black metal box that was taller than his body, and set it on the ground.

　　”It’s done for you, see for yourself.”

　　Leng Xuan quickly walked to that metal box, pressed the buttons on both sides with both hands, and the lid popped open automatically.

　　”I’ve lived for thousands of years, I’ve built countless artifacts and secret treasures, but this, this is really the first time I’ve done it, if not for the lack of materials, I’d like to fight another set of collection myself.” The short old man stroked his messy beard, and smiled heatedly, “Kid, you can watch carefully, this thing can be the only one in the world.”

　　Leng Xuan didn’t say anything, he gazed at the box in silence, his eyes clearly reflected a dark red color.

　　That is a sniper rifle ……

　　A sniper rifle that was two meters long and weighed nearly two hundred pounds.
