Chapter 190 / Chapter 191
These powerful figures, high above, also noticed Su Chen's presence.
A deeply moving consciousness emanated from the enormous giant before them.
Then Su Chen's gaze changed again!
Everything around suddenly turned pitch black, as if they were in a world of shadows, and five enormous figures sat on their respective thrones before them.
"You call yourselves Those Who Sit Above in Shadow?"
Knowing everything, Su Chen suddenly gave a cold smile.
This is what they call themselves.
They considered themselves to be incredibly great and mysterious, a terrifying being beyond comprehension, never having appeared in any records.
And they are the ones who control everything behind the scenes, treating the gods as wives, including Odin.
Therefore, calling them gods above gods is not an exaggeration.
"I'm also in disbelief. I didn't expect that the Asgardian gods were just waves of leeks, and their nutrients were absorbed by others."
The smile on Su Chen's face suddenly turned into amusement.
"Interesting, truly interesting! Increasing lifespan and increasing strength—it's a meticulously planned scheme!"
Su Chen gently clapped his hands.
The giant sitting in the shadows suddenly felt a chill in the air.
Just as Su Chen said, these high and mighty gods treat the gods of Asgard like leeks, harvesting them periodically.
This was the first time anyone had shown such contempt for their actions.
Chapter 190
Asgard, Twilight of the Gods, is not the end, but merely the end of a cycle.
These people sitting in the shadows before me completely manipulate the gods, periodically harvesting their immense energy for their own use.
Ragnarok is merely a predetermined course of fate orchestrated by the gods.
"Indeed, we have ushered in Twilight of the Gods..."
"But we also bestowed upon Asgard a golden age, and their glory is also part of our plan."
A giant suddenly spoke.
"You know that all things eventually flourish and decline, and even the gods cannot escape death. Asgard, no matter how prosperous, will one day decline; it's just that we will be the ones to control it."
The other giant also spoke.
"Of course, instead of blaming us for harvesting their life energy, why not consider that we have also bestowed upon them unprecedented glory?"
Another deity wearing a helmet shrugged.
"What you're saying makes a lot of sense..."
A cold glint of runic power flashed in Su Chen's eyes.
For some reason, this luster instilled a slight unease in these eternally aloof giants.
"But here's the problem..."
"Asgard is no longer the Asgard of the past. It is my territory. If you want to continue treating them like pawns and expendable resources, shouldn't you pay a price?"
Su Chen maintained that slight smile on his face.
But this smile already made it impossible to discern any intention behind it.
Slightly similar to Thor, Su Chen, who had entered the Rune King state, had his power merge with the runes, and his body was flashing with a terrifying aura unique to runes.
But this was not the source of the giants' unease.
The person in front of them was someone they, who were sitting in the shadows, had never expected!
They had deduced the course of fate and foreseen the inevitable outcome.
But now a complete stranger has arrived, someone who has never appeared in the river of fate, and should never have existed!
Its appearance was so abrupt, as if it had shattered all limitations and kicked away all shackles.
That's the source of their unease!
The subtle killing intent hidden within Su Chen's enigmatic smile made them even more uneasy.
"Now that you rule the entire continent of Asgard, I think you deserve this opportunity as well."
"We invite you to become a part of us; you too will be embedded in the starry sky, becoming an eternal part of it."
The giants, locked in a standoff, eventually came up with this solution.
They wanted Su Chen to continue the Twilight of the Gods with them, to continue the cycle of fate.
Upon hearing this...
Su Chen's smile grew even brighter.
"Having one more participant doesn't seem to do any harm to either of us."
"Unfortunately, I'm not satisfied with this answer..."
Su Chen's smile suddenly vanished.
The Q&A session has ended.
The giants high above could not understand Su Chen's thoughts; their all-encompassing gaze had limited their thinking.
In their ignorance, they even tried to recruit Su Chen to share in the benefits of Ragnarok.
They forgot that this was Su Chen's territory; how could they tolerate others acting recklessly?
The Infinity Gauntlet is still on Su Chen's hand!
Boom!
"No..."
A terrifying surge of runic energy erupted from Su Chen's right fist, carrying a horrifying aura as it hurtled straight towards the giant's brow!
The helmeted giant in the shadows shattered, like a broken pane of glass.
It outputs just one word, and then vanishes into thin air, utterly destroyed.
The other four giants were immediately horrified!
"You're all nothing special."
Su Chen withdrew his fist.
How is that possible?
"This is the full power of the runes, something we never gave you..."
The giants finally revealed their ignorance.
They will never know what lies within Su Chen's body.
Even a complete rune is only a part of something.
The sheer power of his physical body, unleashed with pure energy, is enough to shake the universe, let alone slaughter a giant god.
"You may die now."
Su Chen began to pronounce the verdict.
The energy around him suddenly erupted, tearing apart the shadows!
"We are willing to accept Twilight of the Gods, please..."
"That's right, we're even willing to submit to...!"
Before the other four giants could finish speaking, they were crushed by this enormous energy!
Sizzle!!
In a single exchange, terrifying energy instantly annihilated three of them, turning them into plumes of black dust...
They will bleed when they can be hurt.
"Oh my god!"
The last giant who narrowly escaped the energy's impact tore through the barrier of shadow and rushed towards the starry sky!
But in the next instant, he froze on the spot!
In the direction he was running, a terrifying magical power surged forth, reflecting the Stardust and creating an incomparably majestic aura.
It was Su Chen!
Su Chen's sharply defined face was reflected in the endless starry sky, and beneath his majestic expression lay an extremely terrifying aura.
The power of the runes was constantly merging with Su Chen.
Just moments before, the fusion was finally complete.
Su Chen, having activated all the runes, is the true Rune King!
"This..."
The last giant's face wore an expression that seemed to be both crying and laughing.
He knew that Su Chen had completely integrated into this star field.
"Die."
He maintained that ambiguous expression, neither smiling nor crying, when a soft voice sounded in his ear.
Bang!
His body suddenly exploded, revealing a vast and mysterious form, its life force rapidly draining away.
From that time on, all the god-giants who possessed supreme power and sat basking in the shadows perished.
Each of them possessed power surpassing Odin's, but unfortunately, such power was a complete joke in front of Su Chen.
Even disregarding the complete Rune Magic, the energy within Su Chen alone was enough to subdue these five ignorant individuals.
If Rune King Thor n't been so focused on revenge, he could have easily annihilated this group of schemers.
With their demise, the true Ragnarok finally arrived.
After dusk, there is no more dusk.
"Does a bunch of old geezers who can only eke out a living and prolong their lives have the nerve to negotiate with me?"
The power reflected in the vast starry sky vanished.
All the runic magic projected onto the celestial bodies returned to Su Chen's body.
Su Chen sighed.
Twilight of the Gods has ended.
PS: This is the plot of the Thor comic...
Chapter 191
"Your movements in Asgard have been detected even here on Earth."
Captain Marvel looked at the young Supreme before her and spoke with some surprise.
Although Su Chen surprised them far too much.
But this time, it truly amazed everyone once again.
Su Chen transformed into a giant human face in the starry sky, which was also detected by Earth's S.W.O.R.D..
Captain Marvel, who had originally planned to leave Earth for space, was truly astonished when she saw this scene.
"I originally planned to leave directly, but after thinking about it, there are some things I need to discuss with you again."
