Chapter 21 God?
Chapter 21 God?
In the rainy night, a black shadow darted across the ground.
Lu Mingfei manipulated the tentacles to leap from the ground, then fall several meters away, repeating this action over and over again.
At first glance, he looks like a supervillain named Doctor Octopus from American comics.
He didn't know exactly where Su Xiaoqiang and Liu Miaomiao were being held, but this elevated road number zero only had two directions, so he didn't need to think too much and just kept walking.
The black tentacles slammed into the ground, creating a spiderweb-like crack.
It has to be said that this elevated road, which should never have existed in the first place, is exactly the same as the normal elevated road that Lu Mingfei had previously passed by in his car, as if it were a 1:1 replica.
After all, it's impossible for a construction team to actually come to this godforsaken place and build another viaduct exactly like the blueprints.
But what kind of power could possibly replicate a viaduct at a 1:1 scale, a project that would cost at least several billion yuan to build?
It's a waste of talent for someone with such abilities to stay in this place.
If you go out into the world, with this skill, you could become a contractor for world-class engineering projects in no time.
A jumble of thoughts flashed through Lu Mingfei's mind, because only in this way could he suppress his excited feelings.
Boss battles, defeating opponents far stronger than themselves, and playing dumb to outwit the enemy – this is the path every protagonist should experience.
And today he is finally able to apply this principle to himself.
Today is the day Lu Mingfei proves his worth!
His figure moved faster and faster, and several tentacles had already left afterimages as he waved them.
However, after reaching the highest point of the overpass, Lu Mingfei suddenly stopped, because the overpass in front of him extended into a white light, looking like a stairway to heaven.
The rain poured down, and the raindrops fell on Lu Mingfei's body, sliding down quickly without leaving a trace.
The black tentacles had now transformed into a thin film covering his entire body, as if he were wearing a layer of soft armor.
A knight clad in armor stood outside the dragon's lair, having come on the king's orders to rescue the princess.
But Knight Lu Mingfei stopped outside the cave at this moment.
Because amidst the ceaseless sound of rain, he heard something unusual hidden beneath it.
Something seemed to be rapidly approaching within the white light.
A horse's hoof suddenly stepped out from the white light.
It landed heavily on the ground, splashing not water, but asphalt fragments.
The horse's legs were covered with dark gold armor, giving it an air of nobility and distinction.
If Zhao Menghua, who had already been possessed by the divine, were here, he would always shout "Heavenly Horse" and try to grab the horse's leg.
But Lu Mingfei simply stood quietly in the downpour.
Next, a horse's head appeared, covered by a dark gold mask.
It was almost two meters tall, and with each breath, it exhaled white mist mixed with fragments of electric light from its nostrils.
The excavator-like hooves continued forward, and the unknown steed finally revealed its true form.
It has eight legs, and with each step it takes forward, the ground of the viaduct seems to be shattered, with pieces flying everywhere.
Lu Mingfei recalled its name: the eight-legged celestial horse Sleibnir.
Legend has it that it was the mount of Odin, the king of the Norse Aesir gods, and accompanied him in conquering the nine realms, achieving unparalleled feats.
But since the mount has appeared here, how could its owner be far away?
Lu Mingfei looked up.
The next instant, a beautifully crafted saddle and a pair of armored legs appeared in the white light.
Looking up along those legs,
A one-eyed knight, clad in dark gold armor, sat astride his horse, holding a spear that appeared to be made of intertwined withered branches.
The raindrops hit him, but quickly evaporated, turning into white vapor that swirled around him.
"Odin," Lu Mingfei murmured to himself.
The other party's attire and appearance clearly identified him as the invincible god-king from mythology, and the weapon he held in his hand was undoubtedly the legendary Gungnir, a spear that was said to be able to hit anything and was forged from the branches of the World Tree.
The line between reality and myth becomes exceptionally blurred at this moment.
With a living god appearing before him, Lu Mingfei finally understood why Zhao Menghua had seemed so stubborn and smug before.
After all, this person seems to be a genuine deity.
Lu Mingfei lowered his head, his body trembling. He seemed to be terrified of knowing the other person's identity.
After all, this is a living, breathing true god descending. Even if there are no Odin followers on this planet, as long as he appears anywhere in the world, his followers could probably line up all the way to Northern Europe.
The god-king, riding on horseback, caught a glimpse of this scene, a disdainful look flashing across his single eye.
"Submit, or be destroyed?" He raised his spear, his voice booming like a great bell.
Lu Mingfei did not reply, but lowered his head even further, and his body trembled even more violently.
Neither of them spoke, and all was silent except for the sound of the torrential rain hitting the ground.
Finally, the one-eyed knight on horseback seemed unable to endure the situation any longer. He spurred his eight-legged winged horse forward and came to Lu Mingfei's side.
"Submit, or be destroyed," he said coldly once more.
However, he was met with a strange, somewhat hysterical laugh.
"Hohohohohohohohohoho!!!!"
Lu Mingfei slowly straightened his bent back and raised his head.
The face hidden beneath the figure showed no fear, but rather boundless excitement.
Although she learned from Mai Shutoku that the world's strongest combat power could even destroy the planet, this was only her opinion.
And now, this god from mythology stands before him and says these words.
Lu Mingfei could finally confirm that this world seemed to be more interesting than he had imagined.
In just a moment, the black membrane on his body transformed into tentacles that wrapped around the man and the horse.
So fast was it that it bound all eight of Sleibnir's legs before Sleibnir could even react.
The celestial horse, so offended by mortals, let out an angry neigh, but a white light suddenly streaked across the sky at that moment.
The one-eyed knight brandished his spear, gazing indifferently at this freak who dared to defy his superiors and offend the gods with the heart of a mortal.
"Submit, or be destroyed." He uttered these words coldly, but what responded to him was yet another black tentacle attacking him.
A flash of white light streaked across the sky again, and Gungnir easily sliced the tentacle, which Lu Mingfei had tested as invulnerable to blades and bullets, in two.
"Gods?" Lu Mingfei grinned.
A black, greasy, viscous unidentified substance traveled up his neck and eventually covered his face.
"We're attacking the gods!"
He slightly bent his knees, then leaped and pounced out.
