Chapter 641 Go ahead and fight; I'll pretend I didn't see anything!
Odin truly couldn't accept the current situation.
But after boasting so arrogantly just moments ago, putting on such a show, how could he possibly back down now?
Odin feigned composure, speaking coldly, "Think carefully, the three of you. The Cosmic Entity has decreed that among high-ranking gods, whoever strikes first will be stripped of their power."
Given the terrifying strength of high-ranking gods, and following William's world-ending slap, the Cosmic Entity issued a command to prevent a repeat of such destruction: high-ranking gods are not to engage in direct conflict.
Otherwise, their power would be stripped.
This was also why Archangel Amenadiel could act so brazenly in front of Poseidon and Zeus.
"Even if my power is stripped, I still want to give you a beating today." Hera was dismissive, following the directive of William the Obliterator, even the words of the Cosmic Entity held no sway.
"Then come at me! Hit me!" Odin was infuriated, thinking, Are you insane?
He was just passing by and even greeted them,weren't they able to have friendly conversations on other days? What's with the collective madness today?
Could it be because of the recent Ultimate Force Alliance meeting?
But that doesn't make sense either!
Wasn't the convening of the Ultimate Force Alliance also in response to William the Obliterator's call?
And it was targeted against God, so why were these three high-ranking gods of Olympus picking a fight with him?
Hearing that the first high-ranking god to act would be stripped of power, William looked up and asked, "If I told them to fight, would you strip their powers?"
This question was directed at the Cosmic Entity, with an undertone of threat.
This indeed took Odin aback,was William the Obliterator talking to the Cosmic Entity?
The next moment, a voice, both unfamiliar and familiar, echoed in the minds of the three high-ranking gods of Olympus and Odin.
"Go ahead and fight; I'll pretend I didn't see anything!"
...
Odin looked at William, dazed, and exclaimed, "William, you can't do this. I've always considered you a brother in arms!"
At this, William's smile deepened, and he said, "Next time, find a different way to address me. I don't really like you calling me by my name directly, given our relationship."
Because of calling William directly?
What a strange reason.
With two of the three great high-ranking gods of Olympus being William's disciples, hearing William's remark only fueled their anger, prompting all three high-ranking gods to take action.
But the moment they raised their hands, they found themselves unable to use their divine power or artifacts...
Odin also felt his soul energy being restrained.
"Go a little further away to fight," William said with a smile. "Come back for the meal afterward."
Of course, he wouldn't let them fight freely,he sealed their divine powers and let them fight it out slowly.
Having hotpot is one thing,in some places, you get to watch a show while you eat. Reuniting with Prometheus and enjoying a hotpot while watching four high-ranking gods brawl seemed perfectly reasonable!
The three great high-ranking gods of Olympus weren't fools. William sealing their divine powers meant he didn't actually want to kill Odin. So, their beating of Odin was merely to vent their frustration.
The three high-ranking gods rushed forward, and Odin didn't just stand there; he raised his fists and fought back.
Odin could see that William the Obliterator didn't genuinely intend for the three high-ranking gods of Olympus to kill him.
So...
The great Odin battling alone against the three high-ranking gods of Olympus!
Regardless of the outcome, as long as he didn't die, it would be something to boast about.
And it seemed that the three high-ranking gods couldn't use their divine powers.
In a pure physical fight, even though it was one against three, Odin felt he could truly handle it this time.
In the age of gods, humans began to forge magical artifacts and learn power-enhancing spells to defend against monsters.
Living in a frigid region, Odin's body was constantly trained, fighting against powerful frost giants year-round. Even without using soul energy, his physical strength was definitely superior to the three high-ranking gods.
Forseti stealthily moved closer to William and telepathically messaged, "Lord William, shall we run away first?"
He knew Lord William was very powerful, possibly as formidable as a high-ranking god.
But with four high-ranking gods embroiled in a massive brawl, standing here was genuinely dangerous!
Since William had been so good to him, and he couldn't bear to flee alone, it only made sense to suggest that they escape together.
"Don't panic, just sit and watch. This should be a good learning opportunity for you." William then conjured up a chair and table from his spatial storage ring, "Would you like some watermelon?"
"What?" Forseti felt like crying, was now really the time to think about eating something called watermelon?
William handed him half a watermelon with a spoon, noting, "It's from the Prime World; it seems they don't have it in the Divine Realm." He also gave half to Prometheus.
Holding the watermelon, Forseti glanced at the four high-
ranking gods now fighting in the distance.
He saw Poseidon's fist smash into Odin's handsome face, causing Forseti to shudder.
Poseidon's punch, shouldn't it have obliterated the entire area?
But all he saw was Odin stumbling a bit before kicking Poseidon in the stomach, sending him flying several feet away, shouting, "Poseidon, didn't you eat?"
Then... Zeus punched him in the back, right in the heart.
Forseti twitched, thinking, come on, three high-ranking gods against one and still resorting to sneak attacks?
Can't you play fair?
Though he usually found Odin irritating, they were both part of the Ultimate Force Alliance. And it was thanks to Odin that the Shapeshifters could stand their ground in the Divine Realm without being annihilated.
Faced with a formidable enemy, Forseti stood by Odin.
He could hardly imagine, if Odin took another hit from Zeus, whether he would be seriously injured, which unexpectedly made him somewhat concerned.
"HAHAHAHA! Zeus, is that all the strength you have?" Odin, agile and robust, managed to turn and punch Zeus, sending him flying.
But soon, the three great high-ranking gods of Olympus charged at him again.
They were unable to use their divine powers or artifacts, and even their physical strength was suppressed by William to the level of an ordinary person on Earth.
Now, their fight was merely a contest of combat skills.
Had the three great high-ranking gods of Olympus ever used combat skills before?
Never!
Previously, if they wished to kill someone, a casual gesture, or even a look, was sufficient. This level of hand-to-hand combat was truly unprecedented for them.
But clearly, Odin had overlooked the physical toughness and adaptability of the three great high-ranking gods of Olympus.
After a few rounds, the three high-ranking gods of Olympus were dominating Odin, relentlessly landing punches and kicks on him. Yet, Odin gritted his teeth, holding onto the spirit that even if he was hit, he must land his punches on them too, determined not to just take hits without fighting back.
Gradually, Forseti finished the watermelon in his hands, and the hotpot was ready.
Is this really a fight between high-ranking gods?
Isn't this just a bunch of thugs fighting?
Forseti's expression became somewhat dazed. This might be the clumsiest fight he had ever seen in his life!
Could it be that this is the kind of fight you get into once you achieve the status of a high-ranking god?
For a moment, he found it somewhat incomprehensible.
