Lionheart Society: I am an S-class freshman, with infinite power of words.

54: Gungnir's design! At worst, just cut it in half!

Chu Tianjiao stared at this scene in disbelief, and it took him a long time to react.

"Odin... has been defeated?"

Lin Chen sighed, "It's a pity we couldn't keep him."

Chu Tianjiao stared intently at Lin Chen: "You still want to keep him here? Just who are you?!"

Lin Chen smiled: "Lin Chen, a freshman at Kassel College. I'm an S-rank student, just like you. You can find my information within the college!"

"How is that possible!" Chu Tianjiao exclaimed. "How could an S-rank possibly repel Odin? You also used Time Zero, but even Angers is no match for you in the domain!"

Lin Chen shook his head: "It's not that strong. Odin's retreat is only temporary. Even now, I am still his prey!"

Chu Tianjiao was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

Lin Chen flipped up his collar, revealing a red mark below his collarbone.

"what is that?"

"Odin didn't run away from the mark that Gungnir had locked onto him; he simply chose a better way to kill me!"

Chu Tianjiao gasped in shock.

He knew Odin's spear, a weapon called Gungnir, which was made from a branch of the World Tree.

Legend has it that once someone is locked onto by this spear, they will be caught no matter where they flee to.

Although Odin escaped, the mark remained, indicating that Gungnir would still attack at an unknown time, heading straight for Lin Chen's heart.

Chu Tianjiao suddenly understood that Lin Chen was faster in close combat, and Odin couldn't do anything to Lin Chen.

On the contrary, retreating at the right time will allow them to deliver a fatal blow to Lin Chen unexpectedly!

Chu Tianjiao's heart skipped a beat: "Gungnir was originally aiming at me!"

Lin Chen shrugged: "If he hits you, you'll be captured by him."

"You're in danger too!" Chu Tianjiao said anxiously. "Can this thing be removed? Gungnir will come after you sooner or later. This thing is said to be able to hit the enemy as long as you aim!"

"But at least it hasn't come yet!"

Chu Tianjiao became visibly nervous: "But it's only a matter of time, and I don't know if that old guy Angers has any ideas."

"Don't be so nervous, relax," Lin Chen said with a smile. "I'm still alive and well, aren't I!"

Lin Chen was not entirely confident about his battle against Odin.

However, after a brief exchange, Lin Chen was extremely satisfied with his current strength.

It was able to withstand Odin's attacks for a long time, and even force Odin to retreat.

Although it wasn't a fair and square victory, it was still an absolutely unparalleled fighting force!

Even if Odin returns with Gungnir in the future, Lin Chen may not necessarily perish at Gungnir's hands.

Chu Tianjiao stared at the mark on Lin Chen's body: "This mark should have been on me, no, I should have been pierced by this spear. You saved me and my son! From today onwards, my life belongs to you!"

Lin Chen waved his hand: "No need for that trouble, your two knives are fine!"

The fact that these two Soul-Controlling Blades were able to withstand Odin's Gungnir meant that their material exceeded Lin Chen's expectations.

Chu Tianjiao understood Lin Chen's meaning and immediately said, "A good sword deserves a good general. Since you like them, these two swords are yours! Hopefully, when Odin comes again someday, having two swords will increase your chances of survival!"

Lin Chen looked at the two swords in his hands, Muramasa in his left hand and Murasame in his right.

These two swords had just slain hundreds of Deadpools and even clashed with Odin.

But now, with the rain washing away the blood, there were no traces of blood on the two knives, only a glint of light.

"Thanks," Lin Chen said.

Chu Tianjiao suddenly said, "How about this? From today onwards, I will stay by your side. Odin may return at any time, and I will fight alongside you then! This should be my war; I cannot let you bear it alone!"

Lin Chen thought for a moment: "No need, but I do have another suggestion!"

"You said."

"you are dead."

"Huh?" Chu Tianjiao was taken aback.

Lin Chen looked around as the heavy rain poured down.

They were now on the edge of the Nibelungen, and the surrounding scenery was gradually becoming real.

Lin Chen explained, "We'll tell everyone that during the battle with Odin, you and Odin disappeared without a trace, and I managed to escape with Chu Zihang. From now on, there will be no one in the world named Chu Tianjiao!"

"You mean you want me to... retire into seclusion?"

Lin Chen explained in detail: "That's roughly the idea. This shouldn't be difficult for you."

“From today onwards, Chu Zihang’s father is dead, and the special envoy of Kassel College is also dead.”

"I will explain the situation to the academy. Today, only Chu Zihang and I survived."

"Your identity will be legitimately erased, and from now on you will be a member of the shadows! Even Odin may not be able to find you!"

Chu Tianjiao took a deep breath: "This is so cool! But why did I do this!"

Lin Chen looked into Chu Tianjiao's eyes: "You hid here for the mission of Odin. Now that Odin has been defeated and his whereabouts are unknown, your mission is complete. Don't you want to see what will happen next? What do the others in the game think?"

Chu Tianjiao nodded thoughtfully: "Interesting. I admit I'm tempted!"

"Besides..." Lin Chen said, "you just said it yourself, this life is mine now!"

Chu Tianjiao nodded: "Of course, no problem. To paraphrase that old man Angers, once an agreement is made, nothing can stand in the way. Since I've said it, I will definitely keep my word!"

"Then it's settled!" Lin Chen smiled. "From now on, you're free to enjoy your retirement!"

Chu Tianjiao laughed along, "Just thinking about it makes me feel good. But speaking of which, it's good that you're like this. Otherwise, if you chased after the car like this tonight, the repair costs for the Maybach would be enough for ten years of my salary!"

Lin Chen looked into the distance. The city lights came on, and spotlights illuminated the elevated highway exit several kilometers away.

The phone also had a faint signal, which was proof that we had left Nibelungen.

Lin Chen and Chu Tianjiao trekked along the overpass together; Lin Chen needed to find Chu Zihang to meet up.

The rain gradually subsided, and by the time I reached the overpass, I could barely feel any water splashing on my skin.

Chu Tianjiao stopped in his tracks: "In that case, I will hide in the darkness from now on. I will appear whenever you need me, especially Odin. If necessary, I can stand in front of you. This spear was originally aimed at me!"

Lin Chen shook his head: "It's just Gungnir. So what if I have to hit it? At worst, I'll just use Murasame to cut it in half!"

This was said in jest, but Chu Tianjiao was clearly serious.

He couldn't help but applaud: "Remember to call me when that day ever comes. I want to witness Odin's fall with my own eyes!"

"There will come a day!"

Chu Tianjiao walked to the edge of the overpass, thought for a moment, and then turned back.

55: Chu Zihang's heart trembles – a simple college entrance exam tutoring session!

"Lin Chen, I have another favor to ask of you. Please take good care of Chu Zihang..." Chu Tianjiao paused, "And Su Xiaoyan, Chu Zihang's mother!"

Lin Chen nodded: "No problem, I mean what I say!"

Chu Tianjiao gave Lin Chen a deep look, then flipped over and jumped off the overpass, disappearing into the darkness.

This is a man's promise.

Once the agreement is made, nothing can stand in the way.

Chu Tianjiao agreed to entrust his life to Lin Chen, and Lin Chen also agreed to take care of Chu Zihang and Su Xiaoyan.

As long as I'm still here, this promise will not end.

Looking at the elevated highway exit that was just a stone's throw away, Lin Chen put the two Soul-Controlling Blades into his system space.

Lin Chen was about to integrate into human society, and he couldn't very well wander around carrying two long swords.

Lin Chen felt he had nothing to worry about regarding the agreement he had just made with Chu Tianjiao.

Chu Zihang is quite outstanding.

He had already developed a spiritual vision while in the car, which, according to the requirements of Kassel College, was enough for him to join the preparatory class of the Chinese nation.

As for Su Xiaoyan, she was indeed a woman who received little love.

Since the agreement had already been made, Lin Chen figured he should definitely show more care and concern for Su Xiaoyan in the future.

……

Ten minutes ago, Chu Zihang was driving his car at high speed on the elevated road.

He didn't have a driver's license, he had only learned to drive briefly, but he still floored the accelerator and sped up to speeds close to those of a high-speed train!

He didn't know how long he had been driving when he saw the lights of a tollbooth ahead.

The toll station has suspended services due to the typhoon.

The guardrails for the lanes were raised to allow cars still on the overpass to move away.
