Just call me Thor

Chapter 412: It would be perfect if it had Thor's signature



The information Calderon had painstakingly relayed to Apollo, Apollo already knew.

In fact, from the moment Shadow Nine barged into the Supreme Abyssal, Apollo knew what his instructor was up to. Because it was Apollo who had told his instructor about regaining his talent.

Apollo's calm voice came from the tablet, "Good evening, instructor."

Shadow Nine glared at Calderon and replied as calmly as he could, "Good evening."

After the greetings, Shadow Nine thought for a moment and added, "When I came in, I sensed several powerful auras escaping. There were elves, ghosts, and... chaos."

For Shadow Nine to call them powerful meant they were at least on par with him.

Apollo's voice remained emotionless, "I know."

Although Apollo was on the 99th floor of the Tower of Truth, even matters in the Abyss couldn't be hidden from him.

The conversation reached a standstill, and the atmosphere became a bit awkward.

Calderon wasn't exactly a conversationalist. He was best at trash-talking, and after a few more sentences, various "fucks" and other expletives would start flying.

In front of Shadow Nine, Calderon could be casual. But when facing a Supreme Being, it was best to remain respectful. Only those who were truly powerful could understand the pressure from a Supreme Being and be more awestruck.

Shadow Nine felt there was nothing more to talk about and was about to end the call. He suddenly remembered something, "By the way, how's Thor doing?"

Apollo thought for a moment and replied, "He's doing alright."

Calderon and Shadow Nine's faces showed surprise at the same time. For Apollo, "alright" was already high praise! What had Thor done to earn such a positive response from Apollo? Shadow Nine continued to ask, "I see he's still on Earth, has he passed the 30th floor?"

Apollo nodded. He suddenly realized that he was nodding in the Tower of Truth, and his instructor couldn't see him. So, the tablet in Calderon's hand suddenly stood up and nodded, answering Shadow Nine's question.

Shadow Nine asked a few more questions, and Apollo answered them one by one. As they were chatting, the call suddenly dropped.

"What happened?" Calderon looked puzzled. Did they run out of minutes?

Shadow Nine was obviously more prepared and knew what was going on. "Even through this thing, he can't communicate for too long, or that guy will wake up."

That guy, naturally, referred to the Supreme Demon God.

Shadow Nine twitched his lips and didn't say anything more. He wasn't going to pursue Calderon's earlier attempt to pump him for information. Although Calderon and Shadow Nine were teammates, they each had their own agendas.

Shadow Nine's goal was to regain Nathan's talent and make the final preparations for obtaining the Supreme Mark for himself. What Calderon wanted to do... was to kick the Supreme Demon God's ass.

He didn't regret or feel sorry for not being able to personally kill Archdemon. Because he had a new goal - to kill the Supreme Demon God!

Of course, Calderon couldn't kill the Supreme Demon God, but at least, there was an opportunity for him to face the Supreme Demon God head-on.

The two didn't continue talking about Apollo, instead, they turned their attention to the tablet.

Guardian Shadow vs. Nightmare corps, the second battle, the General tier was about to begin!

...

Under the ring, Kaelum was comforting Mike, who had just been defeated.

"Mike, don't sweat it, it's just a loss to Thor, no biggie! You gotta remember, he's Thor, it's no shame losing to him, you should consider it an honor."

After comforting Mike, Kaelum looked at the General tier ring, his eyes shining, "Don't worry, Mike, watch me, I'll get your revenge!"

Anderson, standing beside them, remained silent. Kaelum would represent the Nightmare corps, and Anderson would represent the Guardian Shadow.

As the familiar sound of the bell rang out, the Generals from both sides entered the tournament grounds, and the ring battles began again.

Soon, the five ring masters were decided. Unsurprisingly, the ring master of the first ring was still Ace.

Although Ace loved to trash-talk, his strength was undeniable. Among those of the same level, except for the potential Supreme Being and Maxen, he rarely had any rivals!

The ring master of the second ring was from the Guardian Shadow, ranked 108th. He was originally quite ordinary, but in this tournament, he had shone brightly, defeating many strong opponents and successfully defending his ring. Even Shadow Four and the others had noticed his outstanding performance.

The third ring master was Kaelum, the fourth was Anderson.

The fifth ring master was also unexpected, a veteran of the Nightmare corps who had returned from the front lines. It was said that he was one of the first members of the Nightmare corps, battling for three hundred years, with distinguished military achievements.

This veteran's file had obviously been specially processed, and few people knew his true origins. For some reason, he was stuck at level 599 for life, unable to become a Chief.

In fact, in the previous ring battles, both the Guardian Shadow and the Nightmare corps had seen the emergence of many talented individuals. And the performance of these talents had been noticed by observers from various organizations. After the tournament, they would all be given more resources and become the focus of the next stage of training.

In fact, this was the greatest significance of this tournament. Maxen's meager profit share wasn't worth the trouble for the big shots of the Nightmare corps.

The major corps held tournaments regularly, but the Guardian Shadow had never participated. Mainly because Shadow Nine, the leader of the Guardian Shadow, never bothered with such things. Now, the Guardian Shadow had Thor. Since Thor had taken the initiative to organize the tournament, the Nightmare corps was naturally happy to go along with it. After the General tier ring masters were decided, it was time for the most exciting and thrilling part - challenging Thor! In fact, this was the main event of all tournaments.

The General tier Thor Challenge officially began!

Unlike before, this time, the ring master from the fifth ring was the first to challenge. Looking at the grizzled veteran standing before him, Mike showed great respect. Even with Mike's current authority, he only knew that the veteran was from the Starwind family, his real name

was unknown.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The short, elderly man with a long knife on his back, his body radiating killing intent, looked at Mike and asked, "Are you the real Thor?"

"Yes,"

After confirming his identity, the veteran took out the long knife from his back, wrapped a cloth strip around his hand, and asked, "Do you know how to use a blade?"

Mike shook his head and answered truthfully, "Not really."

"But I only know how to use a blade." The veteran from the Starwind family said in a deep voice, "How about we don't use our talents, maintain the same level and attributes, and fight

with blades?"

Mike didn't hesitate and agreed. As a condition, Mike added, "If I win, can you tell me your

name?"

The veteran was taken aback and smiled, "What, you don't kill nameless opponents?"

Mike quickly waved his hand in denial, "That's not what I meant, I'm just curious."

The veteran laughed heartily and agreed, "Alright!"

Everything was ready, the veteran held his long knife, Thor held the round shield in his left

hand and an ordinary blade in his right.

"Begin!"

As the referee gave the order, both sides charged at the same time, the battle was about to

begin!

And then, Thor defeated the veteran in just three seconds.

The veteran looked as if he had seen a ghost, his face pale with shock, "You said you didn't know how to use a blade?!"

"Well..." Facing the veteran's question, Mike answered truthfully, "Shadow Nine helped me check before, he said my best weapons are hammers and staffs, and I'm hopeless with

blades."

The veteran nodded slowly, "For Shadow Nine to say that... it makes sense." Mike looked at the veteran expectantly, waiting for him to reveal the answer. He was curious why this veteran was only a Chief, but his Eye of Truth couldn't see through his identity.

The veteran smiled and said, "My full name is Galen Starwind. You can call me Galen."

Galen continued, "Alright, I've had my spar with you, I should be going now."

Mike suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, "Do you know Nathan?"

Galen nodded, "When I was a kid, Nathan and I, along with seven others, were orphans. We grew up in an orphanage, without parents..."

"Speaking of which, there's a funny story. Do you know why Nathan likes the number nine?"

Mike thought for a moment, "Is nine his lucky number?"

Galen smiled and shook his head, "Because Nathan was an abandoned orphan. When he was found, he was starving, and he ate nine burgers in one sitting. He said it was the best meal he had ever had in his life, so he fell in love with the number nine." Listening to Nathan's story, Mike felt a heaviness in his heart, an indescribable feeling.

Maxen's biological father had such a pitiful fate as a child. Yet, when the Abyss invaded, Nathan, for the sake of his home and companions, went to war without hesitation and died on

the battlefield.

Galen had asked Nathan why he did it, and Nathan's answer was simple, he was grateful to the people who had helped him. He wanted to spend his life paying back those nine free burgers.

"Let's not talk about these things, it's depressing." Galen put away his long knife and turned

to leave.

"Please wait!" Mike asked one last question, "Was Morpheus with you guys back then?" Galen looked at Mike in surprise and nodded. "He was our leader."

After answering this question, Galen didn't give Mike a chance to ask any more questions and turned to leave, "I just came to see how the young man Shadow Nine acknowledged is doing.

It seems you're excellent, but your blade skills are a bit worse than Shadow Nine's."

Of course, the conversation between Mike and Galen wasn't broadcast globally. After this battle, the next few matches were easy wins for Mike.

Kaelum, the Star of Tomorrow from the Nightmare corps, was instantly killed by Thor with a

bolt of lightning.

Anderson managed to hold on for a few more hits, but he couldn't change the outcome of his defeat. However, Anderson didn't seem to be taking it too seriously.

And so, after four consecutive victories, Mike wasn't even breaking a sweat.

The main event of the fifth match - Ace!

Mike looked at Ace inquiringly, and Ace shook his head.

The custom-made long spear Ace had ordered was still with Mike. Clearly, Ace wasn't

planning on using a long spear for this match.

He casually picked up a pair of nunchakus from the weapon rack, raised an eyebrow, and

challenged Mike.

Ace's strategy was simple. He knew he couldn't beat Thor with a hammer or a blade.

But when it came to these unconventional weapons, Ace was clearly more skilled. If Mike wasn't careful, he could be in for a world of hurt!

But Mike wasn't afraid of him.

Ace wielded the nunchakus, twirling them in the air like Bruce Lee, his movements swift and

fluid. Just as the nunchakus were about to strike Mike's face, Mike casually unleashed a Thunderclap Strike and instantly took Ace down.

The globally broadcasted tournament, which had caused quite a stir, came to an end.

Live broadcasting the tournaments below the General tier was good for morale and

entertainment.

But for Chief tier and Lord tier battles, there was no need for public broadcasts.

On one hand, it was for confidentiality.

On the other hand, Chiefs and Lords were all prominent figures. Winning was one thing, but losing could easily become an embarrassing past.

However, as the champions of the previous two rounds, they were granted some privileges and could watch from the sidelines!

Most of the audience left the ring, while Anderson, Kaelum, Mike, and others remained.

"Dear uncle!" Joseph rushed over excitedly, "I managed to capture the moment you got

struck by lightning! Luckily I'm a nine-star Lord, no one else could have gotten such a perfect

angle!"

As he spoke, Joseph took out a photo of Kaelum getting electrocuted.

Mike and the others looked at Joseph with puzzled expressions.

So, this was how a dignified nine-star Lord of the Wind Element used his powers?

Looking at the photo, Kaelum wasn't angry, but rather happy.

"Too bad, it would be perfect if it had Thor's signature!"

For him, this was a valuable souvenir.

After all, not everyone had the opportunity to be struck by Thor's lightning.

"No problem, leave it to me!" Joseph patted his chest and said, "Thor and I are very close, getting a signature is a piece of cake."

Mike, standing beside them, was stunned.

You stole over two thousand of my ovens, owe me so much money, and you still want my

signature?

Dream on!

"What a shame."

Joseph put away the photo and sighed, "It's a pity Thor isn't participating in the Lord tier tournament, I won't have the chance to fight him and let him experience the power of a nine- star Lord!"

"But it's okay!"

A sly smile appeared on Joseph's lips, "I've prepared a secret weapon, this tournament, I guarantee you'll be surprised!"
