At this moment, shatter the dimensional barrier

Most of the crimson divine energy burning on Thor's body had already flowed into the raised Mjolnir: "Don't die so easily, it's been a long time since I've had my fill."

At this point, Lancelot's close-combat ability was no worse than his. He could see that his opponent would get stronger with each recovery. If it was just that his strength, speed, and reaction were similar to his, then it would be absolutely impossible for him to defeat him.

So he's really enjoying this process. He hasn't felt this much emotionally in a long time—disagreement, surprise, anger—emotions he hasn't experienced in countless millennia.

He was too strong and wanted a battle of equal strength, but there were only a dozen or so pantheons who could fight him, and for various reasons they couldn't actually fight him.

Thor's muscles throbbed continuously, like a water pump releasing power into his arms, before he instantly hurled the fully charged giant hammer.

Whoosh—zzzzzz—

The atmosphere was instantly torn apart by the giant hammer, and the divine lightning evaporated the shattered atmosphere. The giant hammer spun faster and faster the moment it left the hand.

In an instant of almost 0.000000001 seconds, he had already arrived in front of Lancelot.

"Ah—" Lancelot roared, his unyielding arc of light blocking his way. The terrifying power instantly destroyed his body, like a blood bag being crushed. His skin was peeled off, his muscles shattered, and all the bones in his body were shaken to pieces. The knight's armor on his body burst out with a deep blue divine light that locked in his blood.

"Ahhh—" Lancelot did his best to deflect the lightning hammer and throw it overhead.

boom------

The lightning hammer transformed into a dazzling beam of light and shot towards the sky, instantly shattering and disappearing the atmosphere of the arena, turning it into a pure vacuum, a vacuum where not even a single air atom existed.

hum~

Blue flames erupted from Lancelot's body, just like a Super Saiyan transformation. All his injuries were healed, his energy and spirit were restored to their peak, and all his power increased by 30%.

Lancelot roared and charged toward Thor. With a stomp of his foot, a large portion of the arena collapsed instantly. This stomp was enough to turn a small European country into a sinkhole. He raised his greatsword high with both hands and, with the force of splitting a mountain, swung it down with all his might toward Thor's head.

It was extremely fast, though not even a tenth the speed of Thor's hammer throw, but it briefly surpassed Thor's own speed and reaction time.

Thor had anticipated Lancelot's attack at this moment, so he maintained a safe distance beforehand, and...

Lancelot had already rushed in front of Thor, but an extremely terrifying gravity descended from the sky, causing the entire arena to shake.

Click, click, click—

The arena is collapsing due to this extreme gravity, which is comparable to that of the Earth's core.

"What?" Lancelot looked up at the sky. The golden meteor was rapidly enlarging, and his pupils contracted. It was Thor's hammer, which he had thrown into the sky.

To be precise, he wasn't thrown into the air; he merely deflected the hammer, and even with that brief contact, he knew the hammer was increasing in speed at an extremely rapid pace.

Each time the hammer rotates, it accumulates potential and kinetic energy, which is extremely terrifying.

“It didn’t have this much pressure originally.” Thor smiled slightly. “But you insisted on throwing it into the sky, amplifying the force by almost a hundred times. This is the first time I’ve swung such a heavy blow.”

If Lancelot dodges the throw and charges at him, Thor's hammer will strike his back like a boomerang; if it is thrown into the air, the pressure of the hammer falling will press down on him.

Lancelot could not possibly get close to him at this moment unless he threw his greatsword at him, but doing so would mean losing his weapon and would also result in defeat.

boom------

The golden meteor crashed directly between Thor and Lancelot, an impact reminiscent of the asteroid that struck Earth 65 million years ago, wiping out the dinosaurs.

Lancelot was instantly engulfed by the shockwave, and the shockwave pattern appeared in the audience like a gale.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--"

"Ahhhhhhh-"

Both the divine and human audiences screamed in terror. Their hats and ornaments were blown off by the strong wind, and their hair and clothes were disheveled and even torn.

"Hiss—" The gods in the VIP audience couldn't help but gasp. Even the highest gods in the pantheon were shocked. Such an attack would cause them to be injured even if they were hit directly.

"Aaaaaahhhhhh—" A furious roar rang out from the terrifying impact of the fall. Lancelot stood up again and continued to charge towards Thor. His physical strength, speed, and reaction had completely surpassed Thor's.

Thump—thump—thump—

The heart-pounding sound instantly dispersed the dust and smoke from the fall in the arena, revealing the current situation.

Thor raised Mjolnir high and slammed it down on Lancelot, who was charging at incredible speed.

“There’s no way to dodge it,” Thor said. His awakened Mjolnir is alive and will lock onto its opponent on its own, even if the opponent is faster than him.

"Aaaaaaahhhhhh!!!" Lancelot roared. This attack would definitely use up his last two chances. In that instant, he only had one chance.

"Commendable courage." Before Thor could finish speaking, his hammer had already slammed down.

Buzz—Boom—

A burst of light, brighter than the sun, erupted, like a supernova explosion. In that instant, the light stole all colors, and even the sound of the explosion stole the audience's hearing.

"This attack has reached the level of a top-tier main god." Numbers kept appearing on the glasses worn by Bai Yuekui on the bridge of her nose. These glasses were an analyzer she made, which could roughly analyze the strength of gods below the level of mid-level powerful god-kings.

"If released on Earth, it would be able to completely destroy the Indian subcontinent."

"Lancelot's armor is only top-tier among ordinary divine artifacts, not reaching the level of a main god's artifact. It will be completely destroyed if it takes this hit. At the moment the artifact is destroyed, his regenerated body will also be severely injured again."

At this moment, the Knights of the Round Table fell silent, all staring intently. Even those who trusted Lancelot couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines.

Even if one is able to defy the heavens and fight against the main god, fighting against the main god and killing the main god are two different concepts. Basically, there is only a moment's chance, and if you miss that moment, you will die.

Rumble rumble rumble—

"Aaaaaahhhhhh—" Lanlost's knight armor shattered after withstanding the strongest attack from the Thunder Hammer, and the remaining shockwaves were absorbed by his body, which had exhausted its twelve battles.

Skin ripped, muscles torn, but three times the power suddenly burst forth from the body.

This "all power tripled" means literally: physical attributes, energy quality, willpower, belief, divine techniques, treasures—everything tripled.

If all these forces were tripled, his total strength wouldn't just be tripled, but multiplied together, increasing his total strength by tens or even hundreds of times.

He consistently presented himself as someone whose speed, strength, and reflexes were improving, deliberately concealing the rest, all for the sake of Thor's explosive power the instant after unleashing his strongest attack.

At this point, Thor would be completely unable to react.

[Noble Phantasm! Knights do not die unarmed!!!]

[Noble Phantasm! Overweight Arcane Blast!!!]

Lancelot pinched a piece of his shattered armor, which was instantly strengthened, and hurled it toward Thor's arm, which was gripping Mjolnir.

call out--------

It was incredibly fast, even faster than Thor throwing his thunder hammer.

Crack! A shard of armor instantly sliced ​​into Thor's arm, and a crisp sound of bone breaking rang out.

"!" Thor's pupils contracted. He was still in the brief state of retracting his strongest attack and had no time to react. When he finally came to his senses, his pupils reflected a hideous face that was inches away from his body. Not a single piece of skin was intact; it could even be described as a humanoid figure pieced together from pieces of flesh.

The blue arc of light, like ripples on a calm lake, swept across the shoulder, entered the chest, and finally left from the waist.

……

Five full seconds passed before the light of Thor's strongest attack completely disappeared, revealing the two figures in the smoke and dust.

Thor stood still, gripping the giant hammer with both hands. The hammerhead struck the ground, the shattered surface a testament to the destructive power of the blow.

The disfigured Lancelot was kneeling on one knee behind Thor, supporting himself with his hands on the hilt of his greatsword.

The entire arena remained silent for a full three seconds before anyone spoke.

"Huh?"

"What's going on? Why are the two of them positioned like this..." Ares, the God of War, scratched his head in confusion, "Shouldn't the human be below the hammer?"

"Hmm? Could something have happened that we didn't notice?" Hermes frowned. "That moment was indeed too destructive, and it was as bright as the sun. Even I didn't see anything."

"!!!" The faces of all the supreme gods of the pantheon instantly turned ugly, as if they had witnessed something that should not have happened. Zeus's eyes widened, Odin's eyes were bloodshot, and Shiva's expression was somewhat blank.

They didn't see it in that instant, but they clearly felt Thor's life force draining away at an extremely rapid pace.

Even their souls are constantly shattering.

"No, impossible!!!" Odin's eyes were bloodshot as he suddenly stood up from his seat, his teeth chattering.

"How...how could this be?!" Shiva snapped back to his senses, his four hands clenched together, his face contorted with throbbing veins. "What just happened in that split second?!"

"Things have completely turned bad!!!" Zeus's eyes revealed a deep killing intent, the first time he had ever shown such intent towards humanity.

Humanity has secured its first victory, which means that humanity has gained the initial advantage.

The servants of the gods, who are like weeds that can be wiped out in batches but quickly recover, are now rebelling against the gods and even showing a tendency to bring about Ragnarok.

"Lord Thor! This time that human didn't recover, you've won the final victory!!" Frey shouted excitedly, his face flushed, as he put his hands to his mouth like a megaphone.

"I knew it! No matter how tenacious a mere human is, they're no match for you! Lord Thor is the strongest... eh..."

But before Frey could finish speaking, Thor's massive hammer, which had been standing proudly in the arena, crashed to the ground with a loud thud, his arm twisting in an eerie way.

【Uh ...

Then they saw Thor's upper body separating from his lower body, diagonally splitting in two from his left shoulder to his right waist.

*Thud*—Thor's upper body fell to the ground, his crimson divine blood staining the ground.

The audience in the God's side were stunned, then their expressions turned to terror.

"Lord Thor..."

"Aaaaaaahhhhhh—" Frey covered his face with his hands, his expression one of utter terror as if he'd seen a ghost: "Thor, Lord Thor!!!"

After a brief silence, the human audience, opposite the gods' audience, erupted in deafening cheers.

[Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar! We won!!!]

Lancelot won!!! Awooooo—

"Hahahaha! Well done!! Lancelot! Hahaha!" Mordred laughed heartily, hands on his hips, his laughter unrestrained.

"As expected of you, Lancelot, I'm so happy." Tristan said with a beaming smile.

"Hmm!" Gawain slowly gave Lancelot a thumbs up.

"This is unbelievable! A mere human, a mere Lancelot, actually defeated the strongest warrior of Norse mythology, Thor! My God!! How is this possible! This impossible thing has happened! This is simply a miracle!" Wendy screamed dramatically.

Crack! Crack! Crack! Thor's body, now transformed into a 2.5 Thor, began to crystallize, then crumbled into nothingness, piece by piece.

In this battle between humans and gods, the one who dies in the arena will be permanently killed and can never be resurrected.

"Lord Thor! I don't believe it, I don't believe it's true!!" Frey wailed hysterically.

Lancelot shakily stood up, leaning on his greatsword. At this moment, there was not a single good piece of flesh on his body, and even the flesh on his face had been torn apart by the shockwave, turning him into a skull. But he still insisted on walking straight towards the arena exit.

Artoria smiled and nodded as she looked at the King in the audience.

'As expected of you, Lord Lancelot.'
