Just call me Thor

Chapter 370: It seems this heavy responsibility is destined to fall on Thor's shoulders



A dazzling golden sea, rippled beneath Mike's feet, accompanied by flickering lightning.

A dark shadow descended from the sky and landed in front of Mike.

Master Fool stared at Thor, her face full of shock and disbelief.

"Apollo Lawson actually gave you the Blessing of Truth?!"

Clearly, she couldn't accept what she was seeing.

Mike raised an eyebrow. The Blessing of Truth was given to him by Apollo?

Even though he was surprised deep down, Mike straightened his back, puffed out his chest, and said matter-of-factly, "It's just Apollo looking out for me, isn't that normal?"

"This is beyond just looking out for you..."

Master Fool was rarely genuinely angry, but now she was fuming. "What is Apollo Lawson thinking? Does he want to die?!"

This time, Mike dropped his playful attitude, and his expression turned serious. He asked gravely, "What do you mean?"

"What do I mean? You should be asking Apollo Lawson what he means!" Master Fool pressed on. "Do you know where the Blessing of Truth comes from?"

Mike shook his head. He really didn't know.

He had obtained the Blessing of Truth during the newbie instance, as a special reward for achieving an SSS-level conquest in the hidden instance.

Mike had even suspected that the [Blessing of Truth] might be the Supreme Mark.

But judging from Master Fool's tone, it seemed like his guess was wrong?

"If you're going to say something, say it all."

Mike was firm. "Don't beat around the bush."

Master Fool frowned, not answering for a moment.

After a while, she rolled her eyes. "Put away your Sea of Truth and find a place to talk!"

Master Fool glanced at the golden sea of lightning beneath Mike's feet.

A radius of ten thousand yards, she already knew that.

The problem was... Thor's Sea wasn't just a finger-high deep!

It was... three fingers deep!!

From afar, even she hadn't noticed this detail.

In other words, even without the Blessing of Truth, the Thor's Sea Mike had constructed surpassed Apollo's Sea!

Mike retracted the golden sea into his hand, transforming it into a golden bead that sparkled with lightning. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

After putting away the golden lightning bead, Mike led Master Fool to the icy plains.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Walking side by side, Master Fool said calmly, "You asked me earlier what the Blessing of Truth is?"

Mike nodded. "Yes."

Master Fool countered, "Do you know that Apollo Lawson once made a deal with a certain being?"

Mike shook his head.

He knew very little about Apollo.

Shadow Nine, as Apollo's instructor, was a master of history invention.

Every time Mike looked through historical records, he would find a ton of Shadow Nine's inventions, history had been rewritten by him to the point where it had completely lost its reference value.

Master Fool thought for a moment and said frankly, "Apollo Lawson made a deal with it."

As she spoke, ice blocks levitated and assembled into two blurry words:

[Tower Spirit]

The words were erased as soon as they appeared.

Clearly, Mike's private space was still within the Tower of Truth, bound by its rules.

Anything related to the Tower Spirit was taboo.

Mike nodded, indicating that he understood.

It wasn't surprising that Apollo had made a deal with the Tower Spirit. He listened as Master Fool continued.

"They agreed that Apollo Lawson would do three things for it, and the [Blessing of Truth] was one of the rewards."

"Wait..."

Mike couldn't help but interrupt. "Don't you know a little too much?"

Mike had felt something was off for a long time.

Master Fool's knowledge of the human race was incredibly detailed, even more so than Mike's!

In comparison to Master Fool, she seemed like a human, while Mike seemed like a demon. A faint smile appeared on Master Fool's lips, and she said coldly, "I'm the number one forging master of both the human and demon races. All the Supreme Beings' equipment was forged by me. You think this is my first time in a potential Supreme Being's private space?"

Mike still felt something was wrong.

"But you're just a blacksmith, it's not reasonable for you to know so many details!"

"Shut up, do you still want to hear me out?!"

Master Fool thought for a moment, there was nothing to hide, and she admitted frankly, "I've also crafted equipment for that being."

Mike was stunned. Was she referring to the Tower Spirit?

What would the Tower Spirit of the Tower of Truth need equipment for?

"Please continue."

Mike always had a serious attitude towards free history lessons.

Except for Shadow Nine's.

If Shadow Nine ever started giving free history lessons, it could only mean one thing: Shadow Nine had successfully invented another piece of history.

"[Blessing of Truth] was the reward Apollo received for answering a question."

Master Fool explained, "With this blessing, after reaching the realm of a Supreme Being, he could be free from the constraints of the [Supreme Mark] and wouldn't have to fight the Supreme Demon God to the death. He could directly leave this world..."

"Hold on!"

This sentence contained too much information, and Mike couldn't process it all at once.

"Supreme Mark, constraints?"

Mike still knew too little about the Supreme Mark.

Coincidentally, Master Fool seemed to know a lot, and she briefly explained, "Without the

suppression of the Supreme Mark, ordinary people are forced to leave this world at level 1000, while you potential Supreme Beings have to leave at level 900!"

The Supreme Mark wasn't the point.

The point was, the [Blessing of Truth] was extremely valuable!

For a Supreme Being... it was equivalent to a life!

Mike understood this very well.

Regardless of how the [Blessing of Truth] ended up in Apollo's hands, Apollo didn't keep it

but gave it to Mike.

This way, at level 1000, Mike could choose to avoid the Supreme Demon God and leave

directly.

No matter what Mike chose to do then, at least he had a choice!

Without the [Blessing of Truth], Apollo could only face the Supreme Demon God head-on.

Mike comforted himself in his heart, Apollo could do it, he might even kill the Supreme

Demon God!

Mike was clearly deceiving himself.

Seeing that Mike was feeling a bit down, Master Fool brought up a lighter topic.

"Do you know what the first thing Apollo did for that being in their deal was?"

Mike shook his head.

"It doesn't matter if I tell you." Master Fool chuckled. "He performed a divination for that

being."

Apollo could perform divination?

Thinking about it carefully, it made sense.

To be precise, for Mike, anything happening to Apollo was reasonable.

"What did it ask, and how did Apollo answer?"

Facing Mike's question, Master Fool could only shake her head. "I don't know, but you can ask

Apollo directly."

Even without Master Fool's reminder, Mike would do so.

Clearly, Master Fool had no more information to offer Mike, and their conversation came to

an end.

Both of them tacitly avoided the topic of Master Fool's true identity.

However, Mike already had some guesses in his heart.

From the Fire God, Mike had learned that the so-called demon gods of the abyss were actually

deities who had escaped from the Temple of Truth, beings who had fallen into demonization. And Master Fool, as a demon, had already existed three hundred years ago.

In other words... Master Fool was also among those who had escaped from the Temple of

Truth back then!

Her true strength was definitely not just that of a Nine-Star Lord!

She was definitely a being beyond level 990, as for how strong exactly, Mike wasn't sure yet. Even the worst-case scenario was acceptable to Mike.

As he had said before, as long as Apollo was still on the 99th floor, the Tower of Truth would

never be in danger.

Since there was no more value to be squeezed out of Master Fool, Mike didn't waste any more

time.

He first took out the golden lightning bead and admired it carefully.

His Thor's Sea had undergone significant changes after its formation. While his previous elemental abilities were greatly enhanced, he had gained a new wind

element ability - Wind Companion.

Wind Companion: Within the area of effect of Thor's Sea, casting speed +50%, cooldown time -30%, instantly teleport upon taking damage, reducing damage taken by 20%. Wind Companion only had passive effects, and all three effects were beneficial to Mike

himself.

After Mike broke through to level 300 and completed his fourth class change, he had locked in

[Lightning], [Shadow], and [Fire] as his main class elements, with the other three elements as secondary elements, naturally their priority decreased slightly.

Now, without using any other means, Mike could defeat Lord-tier enemies with just his

Thor's Sea!

After its formation, when Thor's Sea was deployed, it could deal massive lightning and fire

elemental damage per second, while also providing Mike with shields, healing, and other

support.

Of course, behind such power was the return on Mike's massive investment of resources.

To maintain maximum output efficiency, the maximum area Thor's Sea could cover was 6,000 square yards, lasting for 3 minutes!

After 3 minutes, Thor's Sea had to be retracted, otherwise, it would overdraw its potential,

causing irreversible damage.

As a top-tier Sea of Truth, Thor's Sea also had a strong recovery speed. After being retracted,

it could be fully recharged in as little as 3 hours!

"Charge for three hours, talk for three minutes?"

Mike shook his head.

This meant that in each battle, Mike could only rely on Thor's Sea to burst once.

After bursting, he had to wait three hours to do it again.

Of course, the main reason why Thor's Sea seemed a bit underwhelming was that Mike's level

was too low.

After all, a fully unleashed Thor's Sea could threaten the life of a Battle Lord!

Being able to achieve this at level 300+ was extremely rare. Moreover, the three-hour recovery time was also astonishing.

Take Joseph, a Nine-Star Lord, for example. If he fought with all his might, depleting his Sea

of Truth reserves, it would take him about 72 hours to fully recharge.

While Mike only needed three hours to fully recover. Setting aside Joseph, the upgraded Thor's Sea satisfied Mike in every aspect.

Putting away the golden lightning bead, Mike glanced at the time; it wasn't midnight yet.

Master Fool was still there, not leaving.

Mike raised an eyebrow.

"What's up? Anything else you forgot to mention?"

"No."

Master Fool pondered for a moment and said slowly, "If possible, while you're exploring the

Tower of Truth, you should pay more attention to the origins of this tower."

"Oh?"

Mike's interest was piqued.

"What do you mean?"

The Tower of Truth had descended for three hundred years.

Based on the human race's way of doing things, they should have thoroughly researched the

Tower of Truth by now.

To Mike's surprise, after three hundred years, the human race still didn't understand the

origins of the Tower of Truth?

"It's like this..."

Master Fool was also helpless.

"The people who truly have the ability to explore the origins of the Tower of Truth are

divided into two categories. One, those with strength exceeding level 995, who call themselves deities, but are actually just pseudo-gods. The other, potential Supreme Beings." Hearing this, Mike immediately understood!

Under these two conditions, the human race indeed didn't have the ability to uncover the

origins of the Tower of Truth.

First, those above level 995, there were only two known: Calderon and Shadow Nine.

Calderon's intelligence was a bit questionable. He was good at charging into battle, but he wasn't suited for this kind of task.

The peak of his intelligence in this lifetime was faking his death, a plan known to both

humans and demons, and attempting to perish together with the Archdemon after his escape, which he failed to achieve!

And even for that, there were probably people behind the scenes helping him. Calderon

himself couldn't have come up with that plan.

As for Shadow Nine, even if he did discover any clues, he would just fabricate a new story,

living up to his title of history inventor!

After talking about those above level 995, there were the potential Supreme Beings.

The three generations of Supreme Beings, when it came to uncovering the origins of the

Tower of Truth, each generation was less interested than the last! Morpheus truly didn't have the time back then. He had to both conquer the tower and deal

with the abyss, he simply couldn't spare the energy to research this damn tower.

The same went for Ares.

Apollo didn't care about the Tower of Truth at all, he found everything boring. Thus, under the combined effect of multiple factors, even though the Tower of Truth had

existed for three hundred years, its true origins remained a mystery. "It seems this heavy responsibility is destined to fall on Thor's shoulders!"
