Chapter 70

In a flash, lightning struck Su Chen again and again.

Boom!

The brilliant lightning strikes alone were enough to shatter a small mountain. Thor refused to believe his opponent could remain unaffected.

"Something's wrong!"

Thor immediately noticed the figure drawing closer and closer.

The figure undergoing the baptism of the lightning tribulation showed no sign of having been struck.

Completely unscathed, he flew swiftly through the air from afar, bathed in layer upon layer of lightning.

Bang!!

They clashed at close range once more.

Su Chen sent Thor flying with a single punch.

"So you're a god?"

His words came with a cold sneer.

Thor was still reeling from the blow and had yet to steady himself when a terrifying force of attraction caught his body like a field.

Pulled by that dreadful force, he flew back in front of Su Chen.

Then...

Boom!!

Su Chen raised his fist, with no regard for saving his opponent's face. He shattered the lightning woven around Thor's body and ruthlessly prepared to strike him in the face.

You weren't supposed to hit a man in the face.

To Thor, this was an immense humiliation!

Furious with embarrassment, he clumsily raised Mjolnir in front of him to block.

Boom!

As they clashed at close quarters, Su Chen's fist slammed into Thor's divine weapon.

In an instant.

Thor felt a boundless force surge toward him, the terrifying impact pouring down like mountains collapsing and seas overturning.

Pfft!!

Unable to withstand the force, Thor nearly lost his grip on the divine weapon as he was hurled away.

At that moment, he finally realized that his opponent's strength had improved to an almost absurd degree.

He had clearly held an overwhelming advantage in strength when he first fought his enemy, so how had their later clashes ended with him being utterly crushed instead?

And why was the lightning imbued with immense divine power ineffective against his enemy?

Naturally, he understood none of it!

Su Chen, growing stronger as he fought, closed in on his opponent, brimming with killing intent.

Lightning?

He wasn't afraid.

He had gained Lightning Resistance in his fights with Storm and in the battle just now.

Besides that.

He also had Divine Power Resistance!

This was also the first time Su Chen had learned that gods existed in this world.

But it didn't matter.

Ever since suffering a minor setback at the start of the fight, his infinitely evolving mutant genes had produced numerous resistances under external stimulation and awakened abilities and methods that countered his opponent.

[Awakened: Divine Power Absorption]

No one could use the same move against his body successfully a second time.

His ability to absorb and release energy soon extended its absorption to divine power fluctuations as well.

So Su Chen, now bathed in his opponent's divine lightning, was constantly being fed by it, growing stronger and stronger.

The more he fought, the stronger he became!

The longer they fought, the more despair his opponent felt.

If that was the full extent of the thunder god's strength, then he could be declared dead now.

"No!!"

Thor roared, feeling utterly aggrieved and frustrated.

As Mjolnir's divine power surged, his aura abruptly rose higher and higher.

He was the god of thunder!

The Son of Odin!

How could he be utterly defeated by a human, a mortal, in the weak world of Midgard?

"Just a human!!"

The proud and arrogant Thor simply couldn't accept that he would be defeated by a human.

His father, Odin, king of the gods, was the nominal ruler of this world!

He had to reclaim his dignity.

At that moment, Thor's aura abruptly soared, his divine power drawing upon the surrounding world as he charged forward with boundless killing intent.

Boom!!!

The two collided head-on once again.

A terrifying light burst across the sky. A horrifying energy fluctuation swept outward, becoming a tangible shock wave that swept away the dark clouds beneath the night sky.

Thor's figure retreated more than ten meters.

This time, his breathing was steady, and he felt a satisfying rush of pleasure.

But...

The next second, his eyelid twitched. He saw that his opponent had remained completely unaffected by the destructive shock wave and was hovering steadily in the air on the other side.

Evenly matched?

Had their collision just now ended in a draw?

[Divine Power Resistance + ]

[Physical strength +100]

Sensing the changes in his genetic information, Su Chen allowed a rare smile to appear on his indifferent face.

"Looks like you've improved this time."

His tone was like that of a senior earnestly instructing a junior.

The more Thor listened, the worse he felt.

This brat...

In the past, his explosive temper had allowed his younger brother Loki, the god of deception, to play him like a fiddle.

Now, after repeated provocations from a youth who was not even a fraction of his age, Thor couldn't restrain his temper and gave no careful thought to the changes inside his opponent's body.

He charged forward with little thought.

Boom!!

Full of fighting spirit, Su Chen raised his right fist again and punched at his oncoming enemy.

This time...

Thor, already at the peak of his strength, could no longer fight him to a draw.

Once again, he felt humiliated.

"Bastard..."

Hurled hundreds of meters away, Thor endured the turmoil of his blood and qi.

But a shocking discovery made it impossible for him to suppress the despair in his mind.

A corner of Mjolnir had broken off.

Countless cracks spread across the surface of the indestructible divine weapon.

"Pfft!"

At that moment, Thor finally couldn't hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Chapter 70

Thor's heart felt as though it were bleeding.

Mjolnir had accompanied him for so many years, through campaigns in every direction and wars to put down rebellions across the Nine Realms, only to be damaged in a human kingdom.

The fine cracks spreading across Mjolnir's surface felt as though they had appeared on his own heart, and Thor suffered terribly.

"Bastard!!"

He roared in defiance.

At that moment, rage completely replaced reason.

He refused to be defeated!

He refused to lose to a human youth in the world of Midgard.

Still less would he watch the existence that symbolized Ragnarok continue to grow stronger.

He would nip this threat in the bud.

"Die!!"

Thor desperately unleashed all of Mjolnir's power. The divine power surging through him also swirled around his body, making the surrounding void tremble.

Bathed in lightning and clad in ancient, majestic battle armor, Thor looked as though he had truly stepped out of an epic legend. With a will that would not tolerate humiliation, he continued his assault on Su Chen.

"Good."

Su Chen's expression was cold.

After their many head-on clashes, his fighting spirit surged ever higher, and a terrifying aura rose from his body.

The countless trillions throughout his body seemed to awaken completely at that moment. Energy coursed through all his limbs and bones, and with his essence, qi, and spirit honed to the utmost, Su Chen raised his aura higher and struck with all his might at the figure before him.

Boom!!

At that moment, a vast, boundless energy fluctuation erupted in the air.

The immense aftermath even made the Harrier fighter jet, which had long since flown into the distance, shake wildly in the air.

Less than a second later.

Beneath the vast waves of light, a figure plunged from the sky and smashed into the ground like a meteor.

Boom!!

A mountain peak collapsed. Thor, who had fallen there, spat blood, his once-imposing armor already shattered. Drenched in blood, he looked like a blood-soaked figure.

"Ah..."

He cried out in pain.
