The Death Knell

Loki was laughed at by them, and his face immediately turned red. Fortunately, everything here looked red, so his face was not obvious.

But he pursed his lips tightly and turned his head to one side.

"You will know in the future that I am right. When your head is chopped off by some enemy, think carefully about what I, Loki, said."

But his words aroused the ridicule of the three warriors. They felt that Loki's conspiracy had been exposed, and they were furious.

Volstagg patted his belly, and the fat meat was rippling like a sea: "The person who can kill us doesn't exist yet. When Thor makes great achievements, just wait to shovel shit for the goat, haha .”

Thor's mount goat seemed to look at Loki proudly, raised its tail, and squeezed out some sheep dung eggs while running wildly.

Loki's expression changed, but in the end it was fixed on a smile. He seemed to regard everything as a passing thing and stopped talking.

And this also made the Three Warriors strengthen their judgment. Loki's tricks are not on the table at all, and they are far worse than Thor.

It's just that they don't know that Baldr, the former heir to Asgard, Frigga's biological son, and both wise and brave, was actually tricked to death by Loki...

Even the soul was sent to the underworld to become flower fertilizer.

The time along the way passed as everyone mocked Loki.

Thor raised Mjolnir and signaled the army to stop. After an unknown length of march, they finally arrived under the throne of Surtur.

It was a pitch-black volcano that was constantly spewing out lava and black smoke. It was extremely tall and majestic, as if it reached straight into the sky.

There is an entrance at the bottom of the mountain, and Surtur's hall is inside.

But at this time, the flame giant seemed to have been prepared. From the gaps in the volcano and the lava river, strange creatures similar to giant war dogs continued to emerge.

Their whole bodies were burning with flames, as if they were made of magma. Even when they opened their mouths to roar, their throats were red, like a furnace.

"The enemy blocked our way, Thor, what should we do?" Hogan pulled out his weapon and asked Thor.

"Crush them! Warriors of Asgard! Follow your prince's footsteps! For Asgard!"

Tactics, military formations, strategies, these are not within the scope of Thor's thinking.

Aren't they just some lava monsters? There should be less than 100,000 in number. Rush over and smash them all to pieces one by one.

He jumped directly from the goat, Mjolnir in his hand suspended him in the air, he activated the power of the war hammer, and thunder and lightning instantly fell from the sky.

The sky and the earth were bright white.

These electric lights made Thor look majestic and powerful, and everyone looked at him with admiration.

"ha!"

He exhaled loudly, and pointed the hammer towards the volcano while roaring, and the thunder swept through the pile of monsters like a plow.

The monsters breathed fire and tried to attack him, but he scattered them with his hammer and responded with thunder and lightning.

Thor smiled disdainfully, these lava dogs trying to stop Asgard's army were in vain, Asgard was unbeatable.

He flew in the sky, picked a place where the monsters were densest, raised his warhammer high, swooped down, and fought the monsters at close range.

There was thunder as the hammer danced, and lightning bolts as thick as buckets were thrown around as if they were free money.

The Asgard warriors all knew to avoid their own princes when fighting, otherwise they would have to consider themselves unlucky if they were not struck by lightning.

Thor, who is red-eyed, only uses his power and doesn't pay attention to his target.

At this time, the only ones who dared to approach Thor were the Three Warriors, Loki and Sif.

However, several other people did fight alongside Thor with weapons, fighting hard, while Loki seemed to be sneaking around, holding a small dagger in his hand to touch up the injured monster.

Fandral shot a lava dog with his bow and arrow. After the monster fell to the ground, its legs and feet were still twitching, and it struggled to get up.

I saw a line of green smoke floating past, Loki appeared next to the monster, stepped on the monster with his foot, and stabbed it down with a small dagger.

"Pfft."

Hot blood spilled on Loki's boots. He drew his dagger and wiped it on the monster, smiling at Fandral.

Fandral turned away angrily, looking for another target and ignoring him at all.

Taking away someone else's injured target is not honorable at all, it can even be said to be despicable.

But the other party is a prince after all, so he can only endure it.

Loki's view is different from theirs. Isn't it wrong to give an injured enemy a last hit? We all go to the battlefield together as a whole, why should we divide what is yours and what is mine?

You talk about glory to a lava dog... where's the brain?

Is it possible to still expect Surtur to make a boat for the dog who died heroically in battle, give it some equipment and treasures, a few jars of wine, a horse, and a bitch, then push the boat to the sea and light it on fire with a bow and arrow?

Come on, Glory will not let anyone survive on the battlefield.

Loki thinks they are brainless, they think Loki is despicable, and they were not on the same page from the beginning.

...

But no matter what the tactics were, these monsters could not stop Thor, and soon using him as an arrow, Asgard's army penetrated the opponent's battle line.

The beasts were surrounded by several Asgard warriors, and then stabbed to death with random shots. Their stinking blood quickly evaporated on the hot ground.

Thor shook off the blood stains on the war hammer. Some dark things were wrapped around the head of the hammer. It was unknown what parts of the monster it was.

He took a breath and looked around at the situation on the battlefield. Everything was in good shape.

A brilliant victory. What he has to do now is to go one step further and bring Surtur's head back to his father, proving that he is much stronger than Loki.

"Surtur is hiding in his cave, right?"

He asked the three warriors, but Sif approached him and answered. The female warrior's armor was also covered in burnt blood.

"Yes, that is the underground palace of Surtur, a palace located under the volcano and above the lava river."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter where he lives. I have to think of a way to knock his head off without damaging the crown..." Thor really started thinking.

"You beat him to death, and then I'll chop off his head with a big axe." Vostagg held up his battle ax and patted the blood on the axe.

Thor nodded moved, this was also a way, and in order to help him, Volstagg didn't mind beheading the corpse and doing such a dishonorable thing. How loyal it was.

"Thank you, my loyal friend."

"No, Thor, it's my honor to serve you." The fat man responded seriously, with a serious look on his face.

"Vorstagg..."

"Thor..."

The two put their hands on each other's shoulders, laughed, patted each other's backs, and hugged each other. The scene was very warm.

Fandral and Hogan also smiled and hugged each other. Sif looked at her friends with a look of relief. This friendship was so touching.

But Loki stood in a deserted corner with a gloomy look on his face. He was not moved at all, and he didn't even understand why they were moved.

He looked at several people coldly, as if looking at a fool.

Surtur hasn't seen it yet. It's an enemy that even Baur and Odin can't destroy. Is it too early to discuss how to chop off the opponent's head now?

Moreover, Odin's order was only to ask for Surtur's crown, but Thor himself went further and said that he wanted to take off the other party's head. This is simply stupid.

But that's fine, Thor is destined to fail, and then Odin will be disappointed in him.

In comparison, doesn't it make me look even better if I successfully complete the task?

Loki held his chin and raised an eyebrow in thought.

He wanted to save the lives of Thor and his fool friends, and make them realize that they were wrong, and then he could pay them back a thousand times the humiliation he suffered on the road.

This will definitely make them feel more uncomfortable than death. After being saved by the despised Loki, they still have to live and die listening to Loki's taunts. What a dramatic scene this is, hehehe...

The people who were moved together had already taken out their flasks and started drinking until a soldier came to inform them that the battlefield had been cleared and the bodies of the dead had been loaded onto the flying boat. When the mission was over, they could be taken back to the Immortal Palace for a funeral. .

"Very good, let's see who can get to Surtur first."

Thor nodded casually to the soldiers, indicating that the army did not need to go in. The credit was theirs, and it was easiest to move with just a few people.

He spoke to the Three Warriors and Sif with a smile on his face, as if he regarded Surtur as a joke, and his words were full of courage and fearlessness.

A blush appeared on Sif's face. Thor was so handsome and full of the charm of a true warrior.

Thor smiled proudly and took the lead, holding the hammer and flying into the big hole under the volcano, while the three warriors, Sif and Loki also followed behind.

But before they could get far, a huge fireball suddenly appeared in front of them, shooting towards several people quickly along the passage.

"Shield!"

Sif immediately raised her shield, and the strong Volstagg moved quickly, not as slow as his size suggested. He immediately took two steps forward and raised the shield side by side with Sif.

The fireball immediately hit their shields, and the two of them were hit by a huge impact. Sparks flew everywhere in the channel, and the soles of their feet carved four deep marks on the floor.

Fandral and Hogan were strong and immediately blocked their backs, and the four of them blocked the fireball together.

Loki just clung to the wall. If these four people were to be beaten away, he could watch leisurely.

Can't you just get out of the way? The passage is actually not that narrow, there are many places, if you have to resist, this brain...

However, the shields of the Immortal Palace were of high quality, and the combined strength of the four of them was pretty good. Although they were pushed back quite a bit, at least no one fell over.

There is something in the center of this fireball, which is like the flint bombs used by the Midgardians to attack the city in the past, and were thrown by trebuchets.

When this thing fell to the ground, both Sif and Volstagg felt severe pain in their hands and feet as if they were broken, and all the muscles in their bodies were wailing.

The flames dissipated, revealing what was in the flames, rolling on the ground.

It was Thor, his face was now burnt black, but Surtur's fire was very special, and his hair and beard were still there.

However, his eyes were wide open at this time, as if he had lost his soul.

He flew in immediately and saw Surtur, the fire giant that looked like a mountain.

But before he had time to speak, Surtur seemed to have seen a fly. He slapped it with his big flaming hand, and Thor flew backwards along the original path, hitting the four people in the passage.
