Chapter299-Loki, the God of Conspiracy
Under the searing and bright light of the God of Light, Apollo, a terrifying shadow-huge and resembling a giant spider-briefly flashed and disappeared into the darkness.
Immediately afterward, countless black threads, densely packed, sealed off this entire space, weaving together like a massive prison. The threads not only aimed to imprison the entire Star Realm but also to interrupt the summoning of the ancient gods by the three deities.
If these ancient gods managed to break through the river of time, even the heavens would feel pressure.
As the black threads, like an inescapable web, enveloped the Star Realm, those within-Madelyn and the others—grew tense, nervously whispering to one another.
“What a terrifying shadow… Who is that? Is he the one sent by the heavens to stop this?”
“The massive web covering the entire Star Realm seems to be distorting space and time. This was clearly planned long in advance!”
“Will the Lord of Stars and the others be in danger? That creature hiding in the void looks extremely frightening!”
As Madelyn, Rachel, and the others held their breath, Owen, recalling the giant spider-like shadow briefly revealed by Apollo’s light, also felt his expression grow more solemn.
He knew the history well and recognized many of the strange gods who served the heavens.
“The giant spider hiding in the shadows must be the one leading the effort to stop the resurrection of the ancient gods. For countless eras, he’s been carrying out vile acts-stealing fate, scheming relentlessly. A treacherous thief!”
Owen murmured to himself, mentally organizing all the information he had on
this being.
“You know who he is?” Leslie asked
curiously, gazing at Owen.
The shadowy figure was terrifying, even to
the extent that the Lord of Stars and the
other deities could not easily take him down. Owen’s knowledge of him was surprising.
Owen smiled and said, “I don’t know much,
but I do know that he’s an ancient deity. He
represents deception, conspiracy, and thievery-Loki, the God of Conspiracy.”
“The God of Conspiracy? Loki?” Leslie squinted her eyes. “That name suits him and his underhanded ways.”
Owen nodded. “As the God of Conspiracy and a servant of the heavens, Loki’s actions are deceitful and unpredictable. Not many know of him, but schemes and tricks can only provide short-term gains-they can never achieve true greatness.”
At this point, Owen subtly positioned
himself in front of Madelyn and Rachel, shielding them without drawing too much attention.
As the God of Conspiracy, Loki’s devious
calculations were vicious, and he had an obsessive fascination with the power of special bloodlines.
In the original anime, after the Millennial Cataclysm began, Loki set his sights on Rachel’s succubus progenitor bloodline, extracting her bone marrow, and even more cruelly, he targeted Madelyn’s Blood Eye, gouging out her eyes!
Every Millennial Cataclysm was a cause for
celebration for Loki—a feast of blood that
made him more powerful and
unpredictable each time.
He had almost collected every special
bloodline across the plane!
Now that Owen knew the course of history,
he would not allow such tragedies to
occur.
Loki preferred to lurk in the shadows,
sowing chaos. Owen needed to find a way to eliminate him quickly.
While Owen was deep in thought, the Lord
of Stars, War Goddess, and God of Light
joined forces, their battle with Loki becoming increasingly intense.
Above their heads, the void had already shattered, filled with primordial energy. Space and time had been utterly disrupted, leaving only extreme chaos.
Yet, amid the chaos, the three deities
maintained their summoning of the ancient
gods.
The cosmic projection began to spin faster.
Under the rhythmic pounding, like the
beating of a war drum, a strange light emanated from the projection, making the Spatiotemporal Anchor within the Star Realm increasingly clear, and the auras of
numerous gods spread more and more intensely.
Seeing this, Loki, still hiding in the shadows, frowned. His eight bizarre eyes, each a different color, flashed with a
distinct light. A terrifying gaze was unleashed, aimed directly at the cosmic projection in the sky.
The Lord of Stars quickly intervened, summoning brilliant stars forged from elements and [Order], clashing with Loki’s
unique eye magic, the two forces canceling each other out.
At that moment, a swarm of small black
spiders surged out from the web Loki had woven. Each of them contained the power of special bloodlines, terrifying in nature, forming an overwhelming attack that even the Lord of Stars didn’t dare take lightly.
The battle grew fiercer by the second. Madelyn and the others anxiously watched the terrifying battlefield above them.
Loki’s methods seemed endless, and every move he made was overwhelmingly powerful, like a flawless battle machine with no weaknesses.
The Lord of Stars and the others had to
divert their attention to maintain the
summoning of the other gods, putting them in a precarious situation.
“The heavens sent a truly fearsome being
this time. No wonder they’ve survived so many eras!”
“And this is only one of them. I can’t
imagine how much pressure the War
Goddess and the others have been under
all this time!”
Madelyn and the others spoke in hushed
tones, filled with dread. Loki’s mastery over bloodlines and rare abilities was so unnerving that just looking at him made
their skin crawl.
Owen glanced at them, reassuring them,
“The heavens may be prepared, but so are the Lord of Stars and the others. Plus, with the God of Light, Apollo, on our side, there’s no way we’ll fail.”
“In fact, it’s Loki who’s in danger this time.”
Hearing Owen’s words, Madelyn and the others visibly relaxed.
They turned their attention back to the
fiery battlefield above. Meanwhile, mages from various other factions also observed the battle from afar!
They all understood that the outcome of this fight would be monumental.
If the heavens succeeded in preventing the summoning of the ancient gods, there would be no hope for this Millennial Cataclysm.
Anyone in this era who didn’t submit to the
heavens and become their slave would be doomed to disappear into ashes!
No one wanted to become a servant, bound
and oppressed.
No one wanted to face complete annihilation.
Yet, with their limited power, they had no
other choice.
As their attention grew more focused, the
battle reached its peak.
The Lord of Stars and the others fought
more fiercely than ever, but Loki’s strategies seemed endless. Every situation appeared to be within his calculations and
under his control.
Boom!
Another earth-shattering explosion rocked
the universe. Everyone’s pupils constricted
as they saw that, amid the swirling primordial energy, Loki’s true form had
shattered, as though unable to withstand the previous attack.
Had Loki, the God of Conspiracy, truly perished?
The onlookers found it hard to believe.
But before they could begin celebrating, a small spider, lurking above the cosmic projection, revealed a sinister smile. The spider’s body swelled rapidly, and its
sharp front legs morphed into deadly
blades, thrusting toward the cosmic projection.
The cosmic projection, tied to the reversal
of the ancient clock and the summoning of
the gods across time, was the key.
Destroying it would mean they had no
chance left!
Everything Loki had done was for this
moment!
However, just as he trembled with excitement, thinking his plan had succeeded, his blade-like legs slammed into an impenetrable shield of light! The force of the blow shattered his legs,
causing them to break with a sharp crack.
“Loki, after all these years, you still rely on such petty, underhanded tricks. You’ve learned nothing!” the Lord of Stars coldly remarked.
“As a dog of the heavens, you’re no longer
an independent god. If I were in your shoes, I’d rather perish than live like this.”
The Lord of Stars and War Goddess
mocked him, their voices filled with disdain.
Loki, despite his seemingly carefree life,
only had freedom when the heavens
allowed it!
“Heh, a bunch of losers dare to lecture me!”
Loki sneered.
Owen, hearing this, glared at him coldly
and said, “Losers? One day we will succeed!
And you? You’re nothing more than a rat barely clinging to life, destined to fail!” At those words, Loki bristled like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, glaring at
Owen with icy murderous intent!.
