#815 - The old man won't disappoint.

“The Serpent… is not your father!”

Even without naming names, Thor knew that Loki's 'father' referred to the Serpent and not Odin, which was what infuriated him the most.

“Then Odin isn’t my father either!”

Loki's words silenced Thor's thousands of words. After learning about his sister's true origins, Thor felt a natural sense of guilt towards Loki.

After all, Loki was the most direct victim of war. Not only was she displaced, but she also had to recognize the king of her country's enemy as her father. This was not something that could be said publicly anywhere.

This sudden surge of guilt, coupled with the dizziness from the blow to his head, caused Thor's mind to falter for a moment. Loki, of course, wouldn't miss this opportunity.

Loki tapped her toes on the ground, and in the next second, she appeared in front of Thor, holding the hammer with both hands, her body like a fully drawn bowstring.

“Clang!”

Just as the saying goes, it was too late, but Thor's hairs stood on end. Before being hit, he woke up one step ahead and barely managed to block Loki's attack with Mjolnir.

However, the hastily constructed defense could not completely block the opponent's attack. Thor still slid out after enduring Loki's attack.

Seizing the opportunity, Loki didn't plan to let Thor go. She strode forward, and the hammer that had just struck from top to bottom was now attacking from bottom to top.

The attacks were continuous, like waves upon waves. This was already overwhelming, and the dizziness in his head was constantly holding him back, making Thor miserable.

Helpless, Thor could only communicate with Mjolnir. The artifact immediately triggered its protective function, and powerful lightning burst out from the hammer in an instant, forcing back Loki, who still wanted to attack continuously.

Raising a hand to guide the current on his body, slender fingers made a few difficult gestures, and the violent current was converted into several streams of green energy.

Waving his hand to throw out the energy, the dark green energy immediately turned into four sharp daggers and sped towards Thor.

Wiping his face to remove the blood dripping onto it, Thor casually flicked the blood in his hand, turning it into four blood bullets that shattered the incoming daggers.

Thor didn't forget that his sister Loki was one of Asgard's most powerful mages. How powerful was she? To put it in terms that the people of Midgard could understand:

Loki was Asgard's Sorcerer Supreme, and few in the Nine Realms could surpass her in magic.

“Snap!”

The sound of a snap came, and Loki, relying on the magical energy she had sent out, manipulated the blood that Thor had thrown out, using it as a sacrifice to release even more powerful magic.

A thick, dark green energy pillar fell from the sky, smashing directly towards Thor's direction.

Swinging Mjolnir, Thor used it to pull himself out of the energy pillar's attack range, dodging Loki's magical attack in a sorry state.

It wasn't over yet. Loki swung the hammer from a distance, and the hammer wind, mixed with shattered ice, attacked Thor. The latter could only grab the end of the hammer's handle and spin it, once again defusing Loki's attack.

Taking advantage of Thor's time to defuse the feint, Loki once again invaded Thor's space. The raised hammer fell heavily, still targeting Thor's head.

After all, Thor already had an injury on his head. Like striking a snake, one must attack the enemy's weakness.

Thor burst out with agility that didn't match his sturdy frame, dodging Loki's attack sideways, and then stepped on Loki's hammer, stopping the opponent from trying to pull out the weapon.

Thor showed no tenderness, punching Loki in the face. A large amount of red blood gushed out of the latter's nose.

The nose is one of the most fragile parts of the body for most creatures, and frost giants and Asgardians, these humanoid creatures, are no exception.

Tears flowed from Loki's eyes, and she couldn't hold the hammer. She was punched away, rolling several times on the ground like Thor just now before stopping.

Looking at the hammer under his feet, Thor raised the Mjolnir in his right hand with a look of disgust. On the rainbow bridge covered with stars, there was a burst of thunder in the sky.

“Boom!”

At the moment when the lightning struck, Thor simultaneously swung his hammer. The two attacks landed on the hammer almost at the same time.

The lightning dissipated, but the result was unexpected. The hammer under Thor's feet was unscathed!?

Thor frowned incessantly. He hadn't accumulated power for a long time because he was afraid that Loki would pounce on him, but it was still much stronger than his usual attacks.

Thor expected that he might not be able to destroy the hammer, but he didn't expect that he wouldn't even be able to leave a trace, not even able to polish it.

“Don’t waste your energy.”

Thor turned his head to look. Loki, with a face full of blood, had stood up from the ground. The latter put her hands together and pressed them on her face. With a click, she forcibly snapped the dislocated bones back into place.

Touching her face and wiping the blood on her hands, Loki now had materials for casting spells again.

The blood of the gods is the most top-level spellcasting material.

“My hammer is different from those of the losers. It is highly connected to Father. As long as Father is still there, the hammer will not be destroyed.”

“Crack!”

As soon as Loki finished speaking, the hammer under Thor's feet let out a wail. The two looked at the same time and found that a crack had appeared in the hammer's hilt.

Combining Loki's words just now, the integrity of this hammer is tied to the Serpent. As long as the Serpent is still at its peak, the hammer will not be damaged no matter what attacks it suffers.

Now, Thor hadn't had time to swing the second hammer, and the damage caused by the first hammer wouldn't have come so slowly, but the hammer was still damaged, which proved one thing.

The Serpent was in trouble.

Thor rarely smiled and said, “The old man never disappoints.”

Unlike Thor, who suddenly became relaxed, Loki became visibly anxious. Blood floated in her hands, and Loki shouted.

“Give me back the hammer!”

“That won’t do.” Thor pressed Mjolnir on the hammer and then stepped out, blocking Loki between her and the hammer.

“Want a gift? You have to call me brother first.”

“Call my ass!” Loki was exasperated. The blood turned into two daggers that she held in her hands, rushing towards Thor's direction recklessly.

Thor moved his shoulders. Since getting Mjolnir, he had rarely fought empty-handed. Roughly calculated, it should have been thousands of years.

Getting into position, Thor faced the crazy Loki head-on. This scene felt familiar to him, as if this was how he and Loki first fought.
