Slaying God: I, the insane and witty god

The chilling aura slithered up the back of Lin Qiye's neck like a venomous snake. His eyes darkened, and he gripped the Holy Grail tightly with his hand.

The Holy Grail's concealing light completely enveloped him and Wu Hen.

Like two non-existent specks of dust, they were deathly silent in the air.

A man dressed as a guard was leaning against the wall, stumbling as he walked out.

Wu Hen lowered his voice, his tone barely vibrating in Lin Qiye's ear: "Qiye, this guy's steps are so weak, like he's been hollowed out. Something's not right."

Lin Qiye stared at the man's back, his pupils slightly contracting.

That was the armor of the Divine Guard, but when that person walked, his center of gravity habitually leaned slightly forward, and his left hand subconsciously protected his ribs.

This is the most basic fighting and defensive stance of the Great Xia Night Watchmen.

In addition, there was a faint trace of extreme cold remaining in the air, which did not belong to the Norse pantheon.

"It's Si Xiaonan." Lin Qiye's heart skipped a beat. "She's actually infiltrated."

"Her disguise skills are pretty good; she almost fooled even my 'titanium alloy eyes'."

Wu Hen clicked his tongue, "It seems the situation inside is even more lively than we thought."

Neither of them dared to greet each other; in such a dangerous place, passing each other was the best option.

Lin Qiye and Wu Hen vanished into the shadows, completely passing through the corner of the silent corridor.

Inside the cell, the stench of blood was so strong it was nauseating.

Memorial: Chains pierced through her collarbone, leaving her suspended in mid-air with her toes barely touching the ground.

She heard the faint sound of air movement, and her head, which had been hanging low, suddenly rose, revealing a fierce glint in her blood-covered eyes.

“I told you, I’m not leaving. Tell Si Xiaonan to get lost.”

"it's me."

Lin Qiye's voice echoed softly between the marble walls.

The Holy Grail's concealment barrier instantly opened a gap, revealing his gloomy face.

Ji Nian was stunned, then her lips twitched into a grotesque smile: "Oh, Dean Lin is leading the team personally?"

"It seems I do have enough influence to even get someone as important as you to come."

Lin Qiye looked at her shoulders, which were mangled and bloody from being twisted by the divine golden chains.

My throat felt like it was blocked by something, and that stinging sensation instantly spread throughout my body.

"Wu Hen, unlock it." Lin Qiye gave a brief order, each word sounding as if it were being spat out from between his teeth.

Wu Hen pulled a black steel wire from his pocket; it was the prototype of the "universal key" he had learned from a certain time-traveling predecessor.

Just as he was about to step forward, Jinian suddenly struggled, and the chains made a screeching sound.

"Stop! Who gave you permission to lay a hand on me?"

Ji Nian stared intently at Lin Qiye,

Lin Qiye, is your brain filled with mush? Why are you saving me now?

Are you trying to tell Odin that the agents of Great Xia are all made of tofu?

Or do you want to tell the whole world that you are the traitors who infiltrated Asgard?

Lin Qiye frowned: "Enough nonsense. Taking you back is my business."

"Go back my ass!" Ji Nian spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva.

"I've been here for half a month, and it took me a long time to figure out the logic of the divine runes operating in the dungeon. The things on that USB drive were just the foreplay."

"Now that I'm leaving, the secret about the 'Eternal Spear' hidden in this dungeon will be completely severed."

"Are you expecting all these injuries I sustained to be for nothing?"

"You'll die if you stay here," Wu Hen couldn't help but interject.

"Si Xiaonan probably left because of what you said, right? The young girl's eyes were red."

"Die? Dying here is my medal of honor."

Jinian took a deep breath, her body trembling slightly from the intense pain.

“Lin Qiye, your current identity is ‘Miles,’ the astrologer that Thor trusts the most.”

"If you lose me now, Heimdall's eyes will skin you alive in no time."

"Not only will I not be able to escape, but all of you will have to pay with your lives for Asgard."

Deep within the dungeon, the giant wolf Fenrir seemed to sense something and let out a muffled whimper.

Lin Qiye stared at Ji Nian, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

"A mission? A mission? In your eyes, is life so worthless?"

"It's worthless in the face of the Great Xia's interests." Jinian's tone was as cold as ice.

"Go! Go do what you're supposed to do."

“We haven’t even gotten our hands on that thing yet, so you, Lin Qiye, can’t afford to mess things up here.”

The air was so heavy it was hard to breathe.

Wu Hen glanced at Lin Qiye, then at Ji Nian, whose resolve was as firm as iron.

He whispered, "Seven Nights, this woman is more stubborn than a donkey, but she's right. If we just take it by force now, all our previous efforts will be wasted."

“Those guards outside are no pushovers.”

Lin Qiye stared intently at the wounds on Ji Nian's body, his gaze gradually shifting from anger to a bottomless darkness.

"I understand," Lin Qiye suddenly said, his voice frighteningly calm.

He reactivated the Holy Grail with a flick of his wrist, and the hidden light barrier once again enveloped the two of them.

He murmured softly in the thick darkness, "I will leave."

“But remember this, your life belongs to the Great Xia. Without my permission, even the King of Hell cannot take it away.”

Looking at the empty cell, Jinian's smile was somewhat bleak.

He felt somewhat relieved: "That's more like it. Dragging your feet like that doesn't seem like something a Divine Ruins cultivator would do."

Lin Qiye turned around and quickly led Wu Hen towards the exit.

"Seven Nights, are you really just going to leave her here like this?" Wu Hen asked in a low voice while observing the patrol patterns of the surrounding guards.

Lin Qiye didn't turn around, and walked very quickly.

His eyes flashed with a frantic calculation: "Leave it here? No one I, Lin Qiye, have ever brought out has ever failed to return."

“She wants to complete the task, so I’m giving her a chance.”

"But no one can stop me from saving the people I want to save."

"Then you plan to..."

"Wu Hen, did you notice the drainage ditch at the top of the dungeon just now?" Lin Qiye's lips curled into a roguish yet sinister smile.

Wu Hen was stunned for a moment, his mind racing back to the scene he had just witnessed. Then his eyes lit up: "You mean..."

"Since they want to play a cat-and-mouse game, then I'll stir up the waters."

Lin Qiye sneered, and the two figures disappeared completely at the end of the silent corridor.
