Valkyrie: Are You Planning to Overthrow Odin?

Lin Xu sat down and enjoyed some food he had never seen before.

While the taste may not be as good as some artificial flavorings, it certainly looks appealing.

"Hey kid, are you a free gladiator?"

A woman with a rough voice walked up to Lin Xu.

Lin Xu looked up and saw that the other person was 178 cm tall, with a strong and agile figure, golden eyes and black hair, and a short sword with a faint dragon aura stuck at his waist.

It's the drunken woman at the next table, the Valkyrie Valkyrie!

And who are you?

You can call me Brunnhilde.

Lin Xu understood. Whether it was Valkyrie or Valkyrie, it was just a title in Asgard; Brunnhilde was her real name.

"Yes, I am indeed a freelance gladiator. Is there something you need?"

"Belch..."

Valkyrie let out a burp and continued, "You need a gladiator... hiccup..."

What's in it for me?

"I'm quite familiar with this place, so I can help you plan your gladiator matches... but I want 30% of your winnings for every victory!"

"Okay, deal!"

Valkyrie ignored Lin Xu's outstretched hand and staggered out.

Lin Xu watched Valkyrie's retreating figure, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Hmph, trying to escape, huh? Starting tomorrow, you won't be able to escape anymore.

With so many people watching them reach an agreement, things are going to get interesting after tomorrow.

Meanwhile, Valkyrie returned to her residence and collapsed onto her bed.

"Heh, it seems Asgard has declined. They've even sent the crown prince here to practice his combat skills. But... hic... well, he is the crown prince after all, he must have some skill. He can at least help me earn some money for drinks."

The next day, the clerk arrived at his office area early and waited.

Soon, the morning had passed, and Lin Xu hadn't arrived. However, he wasn't worried. In his opinion, no one would dare to embezzle Grandmaster's money; that would be an act even more audacious than courting death.

In the afternoon, after still waiting for someone, the clerk finally began to waver.

Night fell quickly.

The clerk looked at the crowd of onlookers outside, but Lin Xu never showed up.

He finally realized that things were serious!

Meanwhile, there was someone even more anxious than him: Valkyrie, who was sitting in the building across the street.

"Shit!"

Valkyrie, who had been waiting in vain, finally understood Lin Xu's actions.

Damn it, as expected, the Asgard royal family is a bunch of lunatics!

But why did you agree to be my manager? So many people are watching.

Without a second thought, Valkyrie leaped from the top floor.

As for helping to pay back the money, don't be ridiculous. The Grandmaster wouldn't care about such a small amount of money; he only cares about his own face.

As for her as the agent, whether she survives or not depends entirely on who they catch first.

On the other side...

The Grandmaster sat on the sofa, listening to his subordinates' report, and was so angry he laughed.

"Hahaha, this is hilarious, so hilarious! Let's do it the rules, I want him alive!"

"Yes..."

"Is there anything else?"

"What about Brunnhilde?"

"What, you want to arrest her? Don't be ridiculous, she's Odin's personal guard, what makes you think you can take her?"

The Grandmaster downed his juice in one gulp and continued, "However, if anyone actually catches her, I can give him the same treatment as the Hulk!"

"Yes!"

Whoosh~ Whoosh~

"Huh? I can't hit it, I can't hit it!"

In a small alley, a group of people wearing nerve stimulation patches around their necks were ganging up on Lin Xu and beating him up.

He narrowly dodged each attack.

In order to gain combat experience, Lin Xu did not choose to take the initiative to attack, nor did he intend to use his strong physique to withstand attacks.

He treated himself like an ordinary person, simply dodging attacks and only using a little speed to dodge when an attack was about to hit him.

He also discovered that these people were indeed battle-hardened; each attack aimed to avoid vital points as much as possible, but once it hit, it would definitely incapacitate the target.

Capture them alive? That won't do!

In order to provoke these people to kill him, Lin Xu dodged their attacks while taunting them.

"Slow, too slow! Even the old lady selling popsicles at the garbage dump outside is faster than you!"

"Hey you, the one in the shit-yellow color, I'm talking to you. How dare you show your face out here dressed like that? You look like one of those wind-up dancers in the Milky Way."

"Oh, I didn't expect you to have Smurfs here. Tell me, what's your relationship with Yondu!"

As Lin Xu dodged and continued to provoke them, the group finally couldn't hold back any longer.

The Smurf made the first move, taking a running start and spinning 720 degrees in the air, slashing his axe at Lin Xu's left cheek. At the same time, he threw a short dagger with his other hand, blocking the area on Lin Xu's right cheek.

Faced with this series of deadly attacks, the only way for ordinary people to escape is to lean back or retreat in place.

Lin Xu chose the former.

But just as he leaned back, a long blue leg kicked him directly in the stomach.

Triple attack!!

Bang~

With a kick to the ground, the Smurf watched Lin Xu's strange figure lean back and take several steps backward, and fell completely silent.

Damn, are you still playing or not?

The Smurf hesitated for two seconds, then turned and left.

This guy isn't human.

Seeing this, the others also left one after another.

"Hey? Don't go! I won't hide this time, okay?"

Lin Xu straightened up and, upon seeing this scene, instantly became furious.

But nobody paid him any attention.

"Sigh, wave 16..."

Today marks his fifth day on Sakaar and his third day as a wanted man.

After these few days of "training," although my divine power and divine body haven't increased at all, I have learned a lot about combat awareness.

For example, the Smurf-like move; he can use this combo against more agile enemies in the future.

Flying through the air, I use my Crimson Cloak to cut off your retreat, Energy Projection to the left, and use my Third Eye Laser to the right. If you dare to lean back, my Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade will slash straight down!

He's learned quite a lot these past few days, and so on.

The people here are terrible at numerical calculations, but when it comes to underhanded tactics, they're complete novices.

"You've been watching for so long, come out!"

"Why did you trick me?" Valkyrie walked out from the other side of the alley.

"You were the one who first thought of using me to make money."

"That's a win-win situation."

"Tsk tsk tsk, each gets what they want. Who would have thought that a dignified Valkyrie would stoop so low as to earn money for drinks by working as an agent?"

"Likewise, I didn't expect it either. The Crown Prince of Asgard would be training here. Which one are you, Thor or Loki? But I've heard Thor has a full head of blond hair and is burly. You must be Loki, the God of Mischief. No wonder you like to scheme against others."

"..."

Lin Xu was speechless; this was the first time he'd been mistaken for Loki.

Are you still drunk?

"What's the meaning?"

Whoosh~

Lin Xu remained silent as a Third Eye Laser struck her feet.

Valkyrie had been somewhat dazed, instantly became incredibly clear-headed. It was the Bor's Power?

In an instant, her eyes lit up with excitement. "Are you planning to overthrow Odin?"
