Chapter 227 Sorry, I don't understand (So pitiful, please subscribe!)
The feeling of teleporting via the Rainbow Bridge was somewhat peculiar. Unlike a portal, which directly crosses between two points, Finney felt more like entering a passage. He could even see the starry sky flashing by outside.
If you include the preparation time and casting animation for opening a portal, the teleportation speed of the two is actually about the same, so Finney quickly arrived in Vanaheim under the energy beam of the Rainbow Bridge.
Because the battle situation was extremely urgent, Heimdall teleported them directly to the battlefield, and the huge beam of light from the Rainbow Bridge instantly attracted the attention of everyone on the field when it fell, even unconsciously pausing the battle.
Within the Nine Realms, apart from Earth, almost everyone knew what teleportation via the Rainbow Bridge looked like, so both sides changed their expressions when they saw this scene.
The people of Vanaheim were naturally happy and excited, knowing that reinforcements had arrived.
The invaders and rebels, on the other hand, had grim expressions. Asgard was the most powerful in the Nine Realms, and Odin was the father of the gods, known to all.
So, just as Finney landed, before he could even get a feel for his surroundings, a sharp arrow whistled through the air and hurtled towards him.
Fortunately, although he hadn't had time to equip 'Demon Possession', he had unconsciously remained vigilant during the teleportation, activating his 'Breathing Technique'.
Therefore, he immediately sensed the attack and quickly dodged it.
After dodging, Finney was instantly enraged. He hadn't even gone looking for trouble, and the other party had already provoked him, attacking him first.
Was it because he was the most handsome, or because they thought he was the weakest?!
"Everyone, watch out!"
Seeing Finney being ambushed, Thor quickly warned him, then looked around and shouted, "I'm Thor! Everyone drop your weapons!"
Hearing Thor's words, Finney temporarily suppressed his anger and went to find the archer. Since he had said he would follow Thor's orders, he should at least give him some face.
But while Finney gave Thor face, the enemy didn't. After hearing Thor's words, they were slightly taken aback, then those wielding ranged weapons fired directly at Thor.
Thor instantly flew into a rage, dodging the attack and smashing his hammer down on the man, simultaneously declaring, "Attack!"
The Warriors Three and Sif, who had fought alongside Thor for many years, immediately began to coordinate their actions.
Finney also immediately summoned 'Demon Possessed,' and in the blink of an eye, silver-white armor covered his entire body, his white cloak billowing in the wind. His crimson eyes immediately looked at the alien who had just shot him an arrow.
This person was clad in jet-black armor, wearing a full-coverage helmet that only revealed his mouth. His skin was also dark, but his race was unknown. He held a strangely shaped crossbow in his hand, from which the arrow had clearly been fired.
Seeing Phineas's change and the fierce look in his eyes, the man was clearly startled, looking around as if he wanted to run away.
But Phineas wouldn't let him have his way, charging towards him with a large stride.
Seeing Phineas approaching, the man ultimately didn't run away, but instead raised his crossbow again and fired, the black arrowhead of unknown material gleaming with energy.
In fact, although Asgard and Vanaheim's technology was more advanced than Earth's, their development of weapons for daily combat leaned towards cold weapons.
There were many reasons for this. First, tradition: both Asgard and Vanaheim had long lifespans, which led to a certain indifference to time and a dislike of making too many changes.
Secondly, there was the matter of constitution: Asgard and Vanaheim were gods, and their constitutions had great resistance to gunpowder and explosions.
When Phineas fought Thor, he bombarded him with 'explosive magic' so many times, but Thor only suffered minor burns in his hair; an Earthling, even with the remaining power, would have long since turned to ashes.
Furthermore, Phineas felt there might be an element of personality cult involved. Asgardian powerhouses like Odin, Hela, and Thor all used melee weapons, which influenced the Nine Realms to develop in that direction.
Earth, being too isolated and having the least contact with Asgard, wasn't influenced in the same way.
However, although they used melee weapons, with their advanced technology, they couldn't abandon these advantages. Therefore, while their designs were melee weapons, they were technologically advanced.
For example, Asgardian spears could not only be used for thrusting but also launch ranged energy attacks, similar to guns. Shields also had energy shields and activated protective covers.
Even the arrows used by the guy who just shot were modified, capable of penetrating energy shields. On Earth, one arrow could probably take down a fighter jet.
However, for Phineas, none of this mattered much. His strength was developed in a well-rounded way, capable of both ranged and melee combat, defense and offense.
Flying, teleporting, summoning, healing, logistics, recovery—he was proficient in everything. If he were to be killed by an arrow from such a lowly soldier, he would die with regrets.
"Turn!"
Phine didn't even bother to dodge, directly using 'Golden Grand Evolution' to command the arrow to deviate from its course.
The rules of Vanaheim were much weaker than those of Asgard, so the effect of 'Golden Grand Evolution' was greatly amplified. He felt that with a little more effort, he could even create matter like he did on Vormir.
So, the alien who had fired the arrow stared dumbfounded at the arrow he had aimed at Phine, which, as if drunk, veered into an S-shape before crashing to the ground.
He couldn't help but look down at the crossbow in his hand, wondering if his weapon was broken, but when he reloaded the arrow and prepared to fire again, he found a figure standing in front of him.
"Gibberish... Uh-oh..."
The alien soldier was startled, his hand trembling so much that he dropped his weapon. Unable to pick it up in time, he quickly raised his hands and said something, but perhaps because he spoke too fast, the translator couldn't understand him.
However, judging from his panicked voice and movements, Phineas thought it was most likely a plea for mercy or surrender.
But Phineas didn't want to pay attention to him. In that short time, he had roughly looked around. The gods of Vanaheim, like those of Asgard, looked basically no different from Earthlings.
The battlefield they were on wasn't a palace or city, but rather resembled a village.
Many Vanaheimers lay in pools of blood on the ground, some even children. This scene fueled Phineas's anger.
Therefore, he didn't intend to accept the guy's surrender but decided to eliminate him directly, which would also give him more experience.
"Sorry, I don't understand!"
Phineas said to him, then stretched out his palm and unleashed a 'burst magic' directly at his forehead, the crimson flames instantly engulfing his entire head.
I highly recommend a new book by a super popular author!!! "I'm Really Not Her Disciple," featuring the protagonist Yi Shan Jin, who becomes the disciple of the First Fairy Bai Zi Rou. The author is a serious person, and he doesn't hold back!
