Chapter 73 - Chapter 67: What kind of god did he say he was?

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The RV sped at its maximum, racing towards the horizon.

Jane leaned halfway out of the window, using a thermal camera to record the astonishing celestial changes, her face radiating excitement and enthusiasm—the yearning of a young scientist for the unknown and for truth.

After subtly implanting a mental suggestion in Najia, who was driving, to not slow down no matter what happened, Ron quietly waited for events to unfold.

"I remember when I first arrived on this Earth, I was also hit by a car, but I encountered a group of fierce armed mercenaries.

Whereas Thor had a wonderful encounter."

A faint smile appeared on his lips.

Was this perhaps unfair?

On the night sky's horizon, dense clouds swirled to form a cloud pillar, dozens of meters in diameter, connecting heaven and Earth, with the massive, colorful energy of the Bifrost Bridge hidden within it.

The prince, cast down to the mortal realm by the God King, fell dazed onto the ground.

Just as he was about to stand up, a huge, mud-splattered car front rushed into the cloud pillar, speeding wildly and filling his vision.

"What was that?!"

Clang!

His head and the bumper made a swift, intimate contact.

The rubber wheels rolled over him.

With a huge jolt, Daisy uncontrollably fell into Ron's arms beside her, her hand inadvertently pressing against his firm chest, her fair face slightly flushed as she moved her hand away and asked as if nothing had happened.

"What did we run over?"

"It must have been a small stone."

Ron seemed to ponder carefully before saying.

...

Daisy hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back. If he had said it was a washbasin-sized rock, she might have believed it a little.

Having completed its mission, the cloud pillar quickly dispersed.

"Stop, stop the car, quick!"

Jane shouted loudly. At this moment, her kind heart disregarded data and phenomena.

"I think I just saw a person, and we hit him."

The car stopped. Selvig was skeptical: "This is a wilderness. Besides us, how could there be anyone?"

But after they got out of the car.

"Oh my goodness, there really is a person."

Looking back, in the moonlight, they could vaguely see a man as strong as a bear lying on the ground, his life unknown.

"Is he still alive?"

Hiding behind Ron, Daisy asked fearfully.

"Don't be afraid. She was driving. We can push all the blame onto her when the time comes."

With his arms crossed, he calmly pointed at Najia and said.

...

Hearing this peculiar comfort, Daisy's expression was strange, but strangely, Najia, who was spoken of this way, wasn't angry at all.

Jane and Selvig nervously wanted to go forward and check.

As they were about to get close.

Suddenly, they heard a person gasping violently, like someone surfacing from suffocating water.

Thor suddenly opened his eyes wide, wiped the blood from his head, and abruptly sat up, still a bit dazed, wondering what had just happened.

But he immediately disregarded it, pacing back and forth, anxiously shouting towards the sky.

"Father! Father!"

There was no answer.

"Heimdall, I know you can hear me. Open the Bifrost Bridge and let me return."

He then ordered Heimdall, but no one responded.

"Old Father Odin is indeed constantly watching his son."

Ron chuckled. He didn't believe Thor, as a mortal, still possessed such defensive power.

"What is his body made of?"

If there really was a person, then the collision and bump just now would not be difficult to explain. Jane looked at Thor, who was covered in blood but lively, in surprise: "Rubber?"

"I don't think he's that powerful. At least he... has a problem here."

Daisy pointed to her own head, looking at Thor like he was an idiot, her expression regretful and helpless.

"Where is this?!"

"You, which kingdom is this?

Alfheim, Nornheim?"

No one answered. Thor turned and pointed at Selvig, asking. His tone was very impolite, almost a rude command.

Alfheim, along with Asgard and Vanaheim, are at the top of the World Tree. That kingdom is inhabited by Light Elves.

And Nornheim is a place within Asgard.

The others were confused, not understanding what he was saying.

"This is New Mexico."

Seeing how tall and big he was, with a rude attitude, swaying a bit menacingly, Daisy pulled out her self-defense taser and shouted.

"You dare to threaten me, Thor, Son of Odin, God of Thunder, with such a weak weapon..."

Feeling scorned and enraged, Thor stepped forward to snatch it away.

Before he could finish speaking, Daisy fired the taser. Thor convulsed all over, fell stiffly, and passed out.

"What god did he just say he was?"

She tilted her head and asked with a puzzled expression.

"God of Beer."

Jane raised her shapely eyebrows, uncertainly saying, "He's swaying around like he's drunk."

"Or maybe he's just dazed from us hitting him," Selvig said fairly.

Snap!

The flash lit up. Najia took a few pictures of Thor, who was still twitching on the ground.

"What are you doing?" Daisy asked curiously.

"A keepsake. The great God of Thunder being knocked out by a taser, how interesting."

Ron, who had used his psychic ability to make her take the photos, looked at Thor on the ground and slowly smiled.

"What kind of god is so weak?"

Completely disbelieving that this crazy strong man was Thor, Daisy pouted and blew on the taser like blowing on a smoking revolver.

"If he's Thor, then this is my infallible Eternal Spear."

...

"Oh, you're so strong."

Dragging the unconscious Thor by his collar, Ron casually tossed him into the car. Daisy's small mouth slightly agape, she gasped in surprise looking at Ron. This muscular strong man was definitely close to two hundred pounds, yet he dragged him as easily as a chicken or duck.

"The data's collected, we can go."

Jane hastily collected the data, and the group took Thor to the hospital.

Thor, upon waking in the hospital, mistook the Doctor taking his blood for someone attacking him, flung him away, caused a ruckus in the hospital, and ended up being held down by a group of Doctors and security guards, having his pants pulled down, and being given a tranquilizer.

"Midgardian, Thor, the God of Thunder, will forever remember this day of humiliation!"

Covered in big men, before losing consciousness, he had never suffered such humiliation. Tears welled in the corners of his eyes, and he roared internally.

...

Ability Points: 92,000 — 136,000

In a town hotel, Ron looked at the increased ability points.

His guess was correct; Odin was indeed constantly watching Thor, using divine power to protect him across the World Tree.

As for why the ability points increased again just now, it was reasonable for a careless new nurse at the hospital to make a mistake, leading to a fatal overdose of anesthetic.

Every time Odin uses his divine power, he gets one step closer to Death.

"He is strong when he is strong, but that doesn't mean he is omnipotent, otherwise he wouldn't have been deceived by Loki."

He wasn't afraid that Odin would detect his subtle psychic suggestion.

Even if he detected it, it wouldn't matter.

"Now is both the strongest and weakest time in Odin's five-thousand-year life."

He is strongest because Asgardian divine power grows with age; the older they are, the stronger their divine power. The remaining lifespan of Odin, if viewed from a mortal perspective, is only 'one or two months.' In this situation, his divine power is incredibly strong!

He is weakest because his aging body cannot withstand such powerful divine power.
