I sparked a mysterious resurgence in Marvel.

Chapter 442 Hehehe, how does Lorelei taste?

talking.

Odin waved gently to one of the guards beside him.

The next second, at Odin's signal, the guard strode down the stairs.

The banquet hall is on the first floor.

Just as Arlin walked to the center of the banquet hall and came up behind Thor, who was enjoying his wine,

I didn't even have time to say hello.

The golden-armored guard sent by Odin appeared before Arryn, his voice tinged with coldness as he said, "Lord Arryn, His Majesty requests your presence."

Ok?

As the effects of the alcohol took hold, Thor and the two dwarf elders, who were engrossed in their drinking contest, stopped what they were about to do upon hearing the voice behind them.

Then, with his eyes wide and blurry with drunkenness, he turned to look behind him.

Upon seeing Arryn standing behind him, Thor seemed to remember something and immediately stood up, saying, "Oh right, Arryn, I almost forgot, the Dwarf King seemed to be looking for you earlier. I was just about to drag him to find you when you and Lorelei slipped into the secret space..."

At this point, Thor raised an eyebrow at Arryn.

"Hehehe, how does this Asgardian rose, Lorelei, taste? Don't worry, I guarantee with my divine status as Thor that I will absolutely not let this matter reach the ears of your little girlfriend on Earth."

godhead?

Do you even have one of these?

Erin's lips twitched slightly, but his expression turned serious as he said, "You bastard, don't spread rumors about me. Lorelei only wanted to make a deal with me."

"trade?"

Thor curled his lip upon hearing this: "You're kidding me. The way Lorelei was being affectionate with you just now didn't seem like she was asking you to do a deal. Hmm, it was more like she was offering herself up..."

Without wasting too much time on Thor, the guard, seeing that Arlin seemed to be chatting with Thor, could only helplessly interrupt:

"Your Highness Thor, His Majesty the King of Gods and the Dwarf King are waiting for Lord Arryn on the second floor. As you can see..."

"Hmm, is Father waiting for this guy?"

Upon hearing this, Thor seemed to regain some composure. He glanced up at the second floor and immediately spotted the Dwarf King's strikingly large head.

"Alright, since Father and the Dwarf King are waiting for you, you go first, I'll come find you later."

As he spoke, the guy even raised his glass to Erin, swaying slightly.

After glancing at the drunkard who wanted to challenge him to a drinking contest, Erin nodded to the golden-armored guard and then followed him upstairs.

But they hadn't even taken two steps.

Arlin paused for a moment, then pointed to Tony Stark, who was slumped on the floor under the table with a young dwarf, and said, "Oh, right, I almost forgot, Thor, I have a favor to ask you. Could you find someone to take this drunkard back to his room?"

Following the direction Arryn was pointing, Thor saw Tony Stark slumped under the table. He paused for a moment, then gave a disdainful smile and said:

"Ha, Tony was bragging to me about how much he could drink, and he's already out of steam after the party's just started?"

Disdain is disdain.

After laughing, Thor patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, leave it to me. I'll have someone send this guy back right away."

"Then, I'll leave it to you."

After saying that.

Without further delay, Erin followed the golden-armored guard, who showed a hint of anxiety, to the second floor.

I just followed the golden-armored guard to the second floor.

A huge head quickly moved closer to Erin.

"Lord Erin, I have a favor to ask of you..."

Erin: "Huh?"

·······

A few minutes later.

Inside a large [private space] separated from the outside by a golden magical curtain.

After Queen Fricca explained what had happened, Erin frowned slightly as he looked at the dwarf king Etri's right hand, which was completely covered up, and said:

"Corrupted by an evil god? No wonder I sensed an evil aura when I first saw His Majesty Etri this afternoon. I originally thought... but it turns out it was corruption by an evil god."

Halfway through her sentence, seemingly realizing that what she said was somewhat impolite, Erin immediately changed the subject, her face showing embarrassment, and said:

"However, removing the evil god's corruption, especially protecting His Majesty Etri's right hand, will not be so easy."

Upon hearing this, the diva Fricka's eyes lit up and she said, "It's not that easy. So, Erin, you still have a way to do it, huh?"

King Etri, the dwarf who was awakened by Queen Fricka's words, realized that Arryn might actually have a way to remove the evil god's contamination from his right hand, and his spirits immediately lifted.

A glimmer of hope shone in those enormous eyes.

Seeing the troubled look on Erin's face, as if he had some unspeakable difficulty, Ai Cui immediately stood up and solemnly assured him, "I don't know what price you, Lord Erin, will have to pay to help me remove the contamination from my hands, but I guarantee it."

"As long as you agree to help, regardless of whether it succeeds or not, you will gain the friendship of the dwarves, and I will do everything I can to make up for your losses."

"If you truly help me remove the evil god's corruption, I will present you with a generous gift. Furthermore, no matter what happens to you in the future, as long as you need my help, I will do my utmost to assist you."

The dwarf kept his promise.

Once they've made a promise, they'll do everything in their power to fulfill it, no matter the cost, even if it means risking their lives.

Although King Eitel's guarantee was not bound by a contract, it was still highly credible.

After the Dwarf King made his promise.

Loki, disguised as Odin, and Furka, the Queen of the Gods, also spoke up, promising that if Arlin helped King Etri to remove the evil god's corruption from his right hand, Asgard would prepare a reward that would satisfy him.

Faced with the pleas of two kings and a queen.

Erin did not agree immediately.

Instead, he looked at King Eitel and said, "Your Majesty Eitel, may I see the true state of your right hand?"

"sure."

Seeing that Arryn seemed inclined to agree, the dwarf king Etri readily agreed, then turned to Odin and asked, "May I borrow a secret room?"

Although the golden curtains surrounding them effectively blocked out sounds and smells from both inside and outside.

But it is quite obvious.

The terrifying thing called evil god corruption cannot be completely blocked by a few simple golden magic curtains.

At this moment, most of the gods and high-ranking officials of Asgard were still gathered in the hall below the banquet hall, and Eitri didn't want anything unexpected to happen later.

Therefore, to be on the safe side, it's still safer to have a private room.

Odin, who understood the Dwarf King's thoughts almost without thinking, nodded generously and said, "Next to the banquet hall, there is a secret chamber inscribed with a large number of isolation arrays. I will have the guards take you there in a moment. The arrays inscribed in that secret chamber are more than enough to temporarily prevent the leakage of the evil god's aura."

"Okay, thank you then."

Once it's decided...

Odin pointed his spear of eternity at the ground, and the golden magical veil around them transformed into countless golden specks of light, which then formed a dreamlike golden scroll before disappearing into the dome above the palace.

If you look closely...

You'll also notice that the pattern on that dreamlike painting with golden specks seems to bear some resemblance to the mural on the dome of this palace.

This method of energy recovery is really ingenious.

After shaking his head slightly and sighing, Erin was followed behind the impatient Dwarf King Etri, and led by another golden-armored guard, they headed towards a secret chamber in a palace next to the banquet hall.

·······

The banquet hall is on the second floor.

Watching the dwarf king Etrigue's retreating figure, Queen Frika hesitated slightly before saying:

"Do you think this little guy, Erin, can help Etri remove the grime from his hands?"

Beside Fricka, Loki, disguised as Odin, narrowed his eyes upon hearing this and said, "I told you, you underestimate him."

Others may not know, but as Erin's clone, how could he not know whether Erin could remove the pollution from the Dwarf King?

The corruption of evil gods.

This is something that most people in this world, and even gods, would avoid at all costs.

For Erin, however, it was not that difficult to solve at all.

Even if the Angelic Scepter in Erin's hands cannot resolve the evil god's corruption on the Dwarf King, Erin can still use Fate Points to exchange for "Purification Light," which is specifically designed to counter evil god corruption, through the Fate Scales.

For Erin at this moment, the only thing he needed to pay attention to was how many Fate Points he would need to consume to remove the evil god's corruption from the Dwarf King's hands.

After saying that.

"Odin" looked helplessly at Fricka, whose face still seemed to faintly reveal a hint of worry, and said:

"Don't worry, that guy summoned six-winged angels several times when he was in Midgard. If you push him too far, he can easily summon a six-winged angel to help Eitel remove the contamination from his hands."

"Instead of worrying about whether this guy can solve the contamination on Etri's hands, you should worry about what kind of reward you'll prepare for him."

"Satisfying this guy won't be that easy."

Upon hearing the information Loki revealed, Frika's eyes lit up slightly.

Six-winged angels are among the most numerous beings in the Heavenly Dimension.

Although their strength is not comparable to Odin's, the special restraint of the Holy Light against the corruption of evil gods might actually allow Arryn to remove the corruption from the hands of the dwarf king Etri.

Thinking of this, Queen Fricka smiled and said:

"If Erin can really summon a six-winged angel, he might be able to remove the contamination from Etri's hands."

"That would be a good thing for Asgard as well."

"As for the compensation..."

At this point, Queen Fricka's eyes swept towards the corner of the banquet hall, where Lorelei, who had been freed from the charm control, was coldly lashing out at her suitors, and then a thoughtful look appeared on her face.

After a moment of silence, Frika said, "I'll go downstairs first. As for the payment, don't worry about it, I'll take care of it."

talking.

Fricka got up and walked towards the stairs.

·······

Ok.

Odin, who noticed Fricca's actions, also glanced at Lorelei below, and a glint of light appeared in his eyes.

interesting.

After raising the pure gold goblet and drinking the fragrant Asgardian wine in one gulp, Odin casually fed the goblet to the Ring of Greed as a snack.

·······

the other side.

Guided by the golden-armored guard, they traveled through a tunnel with the dwarf king Eitrich to Arryn, the secret chamber Odin had mentioned.

The so-called secret room turned out to be much larger than I had expected.

Inside the secret chamber, which is about twenty meters long and wide, stand four huge stone pillars.

Above the secret chamber, magical crystal lamps were embedded, illuminating the reliefs carved on the walls around the chamber.

After explaining how to activate the magic arrays and barriers in the secret chamber, the golden-armored guard who had led Erin and the others into the chamber took his leave.

As he left, he also helped Erin and the others close the heavy stone door.

After the golden-armored guard left.

Erin pondered for a moment.

Following the instructions given by the golden-armored guard, they opened the isolation array of the secret room.

After the pale golden barrier flashed and disappeared on the walls of the secret chamber.

King Etrigue the Dwarf tapped and banged on the surrounding walls for a while.

After a while, the dwarf king Etri, who had already tested the isolation of the secret chamber in his own way, came to Arlin's side and nodded in satisfaction.

"The intertwined magic arrays in this secret room provide excellent isolation; it could even be considered a small, powerful barrier."

"In any case, it's enough to temporarily prevent the evil god's aura from leaking out."

talking.

Ettri then took off the glove on his right hand, which was made of leather from some unknown animal.

next second.

A nauseating, rotten stench instantly filled the sealed room.

Immediately afterward, the rotten, blackened hand of the dwarf king Etri, covered with bluish-black hairs, came into Erin's view.

After being freed from the restraint of the glove, the dark blue-green down seemed to come alive again, wriggling slightly on Etri's large right hand.

"This is······"

Erin did not find the nauseating stench offensive.

Approaching Aitri, he carefully examined the aura of the evil god contained within the palm.

Erin breathed a slight sigh of relief.

It's unclear whether the evil god's eye that Aitri came into contact with was dead or something else.

The situation is better than Erin had imagined.

Although the Dwarf King Eitri's hands appeared to be severely corrupted by the aura of the evil god and had begun to rot and deform, in reality, the aura of the evil god on his hands was not as strong as the wisp of evil god aura that he had captured in Harlem before.

In addition, given the Dwarf King's powerful physique, the corruption of his right hand by the evil god's aura was not as severe as it appeared.

Because the aura of the dead evil god had only polluted the dwarf king's flesh and blood, but had not yet seeped into his bone marrow.

By exchanging for just a wisp of "Purifying Light," one can completely purify the evil god's aura that tainted Aitri's hands.

The only thing that troubled Erin was whether the "Light of Purification" would also purify the highly corrupted flesh and blood of Etri's right hand.

And just then...

Suddenly, a long-lost notification sound echoed in Erin's mind.
