"You haven't rested yet? What are you writing now?"
Ishtar spotted Lu Ming writing furiously in the small room at a glance.
Are you overflowing with energy? Looking at you, completely injured after fighting Odin, and practically charred from being struck by lightning, you really don't need a break…
The goddess looked closely and saw that although he was covered in wounds, his breathing was steady and his brushstrokes were swift.
Never mind, it seems like I don't really need it.
"You do not understand."
Lu Ming shook his head. "What I'm writing is what I realized after this battle, the key to completely defeating Odin!"
Ishtar: "..."
What incredible thing have you figured out this time?
How outrageous can it be compared to your "alchemy"?
Book 1: Chapter 13 "The Abyss of Odin"
Ishtar stepped forward and took a closer look.
On the very first page of the stack of notebooks, Lu Ming had written several bold characters, serving as the main title of the entire book:
Odin's Abyss
Continuing down, a line of tiny, flamboyant characters came into view:
[God! Come! It's time for us to settle our score!]
Ishtar's breath hitched, his steps faltered, and he nearly stumbled backward.
"Are you sure... this is your post-war reflection?"
She immediately realized that what Lu Ming had written was probably not a simple insight.
Given this guy's extraordinary wisdom, it's probably a masterpiece that could shake me for ten thousand years.
For some reason, my brain started to tremble unconsciously.
"Definitely and certainly."
Lu Ming nodded, his eyes wide open, his face solemn, holding the notes in his hands.
It was treated with the same solemnity and sacredness as the ancient and profound scriptures of the Bible.
In fact, before he actually put pen to paper, his most direct realization after this battle was that he would ultimately find it difficult to directly confront Odin for an extended period of time.
Even if this is just a fake Odin, an avatar, it's not something a mere ordinary half-blood like him can easily deal with.
After all, that was the Dragon King, the King of the Sky and the Wind. Teacher Daye personally certified that Odin was once the strongest warrior of their race!
Even Odin's current state is only a weakened version!
Although Lu Ming is now finally able to make use of some of his personal talent and embark on the path of alchemy.
But when it comes to the accumulation of time, the competition of talent, resources, channels, and manpower...
After careful consideration, he realized that in no way could he compare to Odin, a figure high above in the clouds.
Just like an ordinary, low-level office worker, no matter how capable or how hard they work, they can't openly challenge a top conglomerate that controls the economic lifeline.
The most direct proof is that Lu Ming had gone through countless hardships and trials to deeply study alchemy... and in less than half a day, he finally made progress and improved his strength a little.
Odin, however, seemed quite at ease when facing the now-powerful Lu Ming.
Even with only one layer of alchemical dragon runes activated, the enhanced lightning spell left Lu Ming with charred skin, severe injuries, and teeth scattered on the ground, almost unable to keep up with his own recovery speed.
Finally, Lu Ming seized the opportunity when Odin suddenly lost focus for some reason, and managed to slap the guy in the face and steal the mask as a trophy. This was even considered an act of luck and cannot be counted as a legitimate achievement.
Alas! After practicing his most proficient alchemy for less than half a day, he could only barely hold his own against Odin, who had used enhanced techniques, for a mere moment!
It's hard to imagine how dark, hopeless, and bleak the path to confronting Odin will be!
Even though Lu Ming believed in the power of human will to conquer nature, he couldn't help but feel cold hands and feet and a chill down his spine when facing Odin, a colossal monster who had lived since ancient times.
No wonder there's a saying that human strength has its limits!
However, Lu Mingke was not a stubborn old man; he considered himself quick-witted and had a habitually divergent way of thinking.
So, after racking my brains, reflecting deeply, and pondering deeply... for two whole minutes! I finally came up with a new solution:
Since going it alone is not feasible, can we form alliances?
Even if he cannot defeat Odin on his own, he can still raise the banner of defeating Odin.
As long as there is a way to let millions of people see the truth and witness His evil nature and conspiracies...
This would give the world's forces—the Secret Society, the Serpent Clan, the Solomon Temple, Westminster Bank…—the opportunity to unite against Him, allowing half-bloods to fight generation after generation! And to plunge Odin into a vast ocean of people!
It was this lofty goal that prompted Lu Ming to write this masterpiece, "The Abyss of Odin"!
"Uh... so you mean Odin has been lurking in the human world for thousands of years?"
"He even impersonated the head of a wealthy family, secretly orchestrating various inhumane human experiments?"
Ishtar examined several pages of the manuscript, which were vague and messy. After reading a section, she gave a look of utter disbelief, like an old man on the subway looking at his phone.
Leaving aside the question of how a god of Odin's stature could so frequently interfere in the human world after the Age of Gods ended...
Well, Odin from The Wild Hunt has already jumped right in front of them, so it's not impossible that there are other versions of Odin as well.
But how could the supreme god of the Aesir, a race of gods, step down to play the role of the head of a noble family in the human world?
The purpose was for some strange experiments... the kind of shady dealings that only magicians would enjoy!?
They've completely lost all the dignity expected of a master!
She would rather laugh herself to death, die outside, or jump off Mount Abif than believe that a single word in this is true!
"There's no doubt that this is the truth!"
Lu Ming retrieved the manuscript paper, organized his notes, and prepared to leave. Judging from Ishtar's tone, he knew the woman hadn't believed a single punctuation mark.
Ha, I can't be bothered to argue with you.
This useless goddess has a personality worse than Ereshkigal, knowledge worse than Francesca, and apart from alchemy which is barely passable, she has nothing else to offer.
"You think you understand Odin as well as I do?"
Lu Ming is very familiar with the original Dragon Raja novel.
Although Odin is a hidden boss among the dragons, his identity in the human world is not directly explained in the original work. However, judging from his conversation with the Great Teacher, in which he mentions "I have a family," Odin may have been lurking in a human family for a long time.
At the time, many netizens speculated that the head of Gattuso's family, Pompeii, and the head of the Chen family were Odin, and even researched various details to support this claim.
However, Lu Ming did not explicitly write about it in "Odin's Abyss". He only followed the vague hints of the original work and only wrote the first draft. He did not have time to develop the various settings.
After all, this is far more than just a discussion of a novel; it involves a real world. If he guesses the identity wrong, the credibility of this book, "The Abyss of Odin," will be rendered useless.
"Oh right, I know as much about Odin as you do, but what are you writing?" Seeing Lu Ming leave, Ishtar followed closely behind.
"—You start by saying that the Nibelungen where you're trapped is where the truth of Odin's inhumane experiments is buried?"
"It even says that your long-term investigation here led you to the conclusion that Odin's forces were procuring test subjects from all over the world to conduct cruel live experiments, not even sparing their own children..."
"This...this development is way too forced!"
Lu Ming retorted, "So what? Do you know more about Nibelungen than I do?"
Although he hadn't investigated, it was never wrong to stigmatize... no, to expose Odin's sinister and scheming nature.
"I don't know, but you're just making things up; you need some basis for your claim..."
Ishtar was incredibly nervous. She certainly didn't know this godforsaken place as well as Lu Ming, but she knew more about the gods than he did.
How could a supreme god, a majestic being from a higher dimension, possibly have the same cold-blooded ambition as a human being?
What Lu Ming wrote is not a survey result at all; it's so nonsensical it's like a novel!
Their conversation was interrupted by a third party.
"Wow! Come here, come here! Look what I've found!"
Francesca waved from the end of the corridor, jumping and skipping with great joy.
Given her wicked nature, there's probably something funny to watch.
Moreover, the chances of running into something like this are slim to none.
"What was discovered?"
"Ta-da! You'd never guess, would you? This cage-like world created by Odin actually contains records of incredibly cruel human experiments!"
After hearing this, Lu Ming turned his head and looked at Ishtar, who had an incredulous expression on her face.
"Look, here comes the evidence you wanted, doesn't it?"
Volume 1: Chapter 14 The Old Director: Children, I've Become a Substitute
Ishtar, instantly proven wrong: "..."
Feeling awkward inside, the goddess almost couldn't hold back and forced a smile.
whispering sound.
She's not the same person she used to be, easily surprised by Lu Ming's outrageous alchemical practices.
Now she is also "tested and experienced" and has gained a lot of knowledge.
When Francesca first arrived, she was able to keep up with Lu Ming's train of thought and gave a vivid and engaging explanation. She must be a heavyweight psychopath.
It's not so strange that we inexplicably clicked on each other's radio waves again.
Besides...
"Does having such experimental records prove that it's related to Odin? What if someone else did it and it just happened to appear here?"
Ishtar remained undeterred and repeatedly tried to salvage the situation.
"Oh, Odin? What? We're busy deciphering information here, and you guys have new clues? Hehehe, what is it? Tell me and make me happy!"
Francesca was still unclear about what the two were arguing about.
But as soon as she heard the keywords, she perked up and her smile became almost manic.
Lezi is a veteran hero; the more you appreciate his work, the more inspired you become!
Lu Ming followed her toward the target laboratory, revealing without hesitation the confidential information he had written in "The Abyss of Odin":
“You’ve come at just the right time! I’ve compiled the findings of my investigations in the Nibelungen over the years and have confirmed that Odin is the mastermind behind many of the inhumane experiments!”
He spoke frankly; after all, unlike short-sighted people like Ishtar, Francesca was always the first to express her deep agreement with his words and actions, and her attitude was always warm and sincere with a smile.
What does this mean?
This shows that Francesca's vision has penetrated the shackles of worldly order and reached the essence of things!
...Although Francesca, for some reason, always liked to glance at him with a strange, burning gaze, such details were obviously unimportant.
In short, his encounter with Francesca was like the King of Qin meeting Bai Qi, Emperor Gaozu meeting Han Xin, or Cao Cao meeting Xun Yu!
Ereshkigal had previously advised him to stay away from Francesca because the girl was crazy.
But little did he know that the line between genius and madness is thin! How could Lu Ming abandon the half of his body he trusted because of worldly views?
Lu Ming continued to talk to the girl in the gothic dress, "In fact, I was imprisoned in this Nibelung world decades ago because of Odin."
"You must know that there is no love without a reason, nor is there hatred without a reason. At that time, I was just an extremely weak and ordinary human being. Why did Odin harbor such malice towards me?"
Francesca led the group into the lab, her smile growing even brighter and more unrestrained. "There must be a reason, right?"
"Yes, that must be because decades ago, when Odin was conducting secret experiments here, I inadvertently interfered and threatened His interests! And the reason I'm trapped here and unable to escape is because He set me up!"
Ishtar: "..."
He actually treated that kind of nonsensical conclusion, which was no different from the setting of a novel, as key information and explained it in a very serious manner!
Francesca giggled and clapped her hands, "Wow, what a coincidence! The experimental records we found here also happen to date back several decades!"
"Very good! You are truly worthy of your reputation, unlike some goddesses who only question instead of trying to find a way to verify."
Ishtar: "..."
Were you sent down to earth by the gods specifically to torment me?
