“Lorne! Are you not going too far?”
He could not help but retort.
After all, he was naturally unwilling to give up such a divine sword.
Aphrodite did not speak. Instead, she looked at Lorne curiously. Previously, she had not participated in the tripartite meeting, but she had heard some things about Lorne, so she was naturally very curious.
“Get lost!”
Zeus was shocked, and his face turned gloomy.
“The divine sword only belongs to the capable! The incapable should just shut up! If you have the ability, fight me for it! Otherwise, shut up!”
Lorne was being very domineering at the moment. After all, he had waited for several years and was finally about to succeed, but so many people had come. Of course, he would be furious!
“You…”
Zeus was so angry that his face turned red, but he did not dare to make a move on Lorne.
In the distance, Aphrodite’s eyes flashed with a strange light. She did not expect Lorne to be more overbearing than she had imagined. He was even filled with a heroic spirit, which piqued her interest. Instead, she looked at Zeus with disdain.
There was no comparison to be made, they were of different leagues. He dared not make a move even after being insulted like that.
Zeus was filled with anger towards Lorne, but he did not have the strength to make any moves. However, he did not want to give up on the divine sword, so he remained where he was.
Lorne saw this and frowned, but did not say anything.
Time slowly passed. Suddenly, a strange movement in space broke the strange atmosphere.
Zeus was delighted when he saw this. It was clearly Cronus’ energy signature. Perhaps he could join forces with the other party to seize the divine sword and then counterattack!
As long as he could defeat Lorne, there was still hope for the divine sword. If he could not win, everyone could only watch from the sidelines.
…
Cronus and the other two arrived the latest from the Divine Court. However, this was not because he was the slowest, but because the Divine Court was very far away from the far western sea.
On the contrary, he had been the fastest.
Cronus was known as the god of space and time because he lorded over such elements himself. He could tear through space and perform interdimensional jumps.
He entered the sub-dimensional space and traveled much faster than he did in the real world.
However, when the three of them appeared in the main space, they were first stunned when they saw Zeus and Aphrodite. Then, they frowned when they saw a giant that was tens of thousands of feet tall.
What was going on? The three of them suddenly had a bad premonition.
When they took in his power, the three of them almost blacked out. They felt terrible!
How could they run into Lorne everywhere!
“What’s going on?”
After taking in the situation, Cronus turned to ask Aphrodite.
Upon hearing this, Aphrodite smiled, “Lorne has claimed the sword! He was there first! He wants you to leave quickly!”
After a brief explanation, she no longer had the intention to fight, so when she spoke, she forfeited by default.
“Outrageous! How overbearing!”
Cronus had yet to speak, but Hyperion, one of the three Titans, could not hold it in any longer. It was very clear how powerful the divine sword was. They could all sense it. If a being like Lorne were to gain hold of it… wouldn’t it be like adding wings to a tiger? He would not stand for it.
Cronus and Hyperion both felt that Lorne was crossing the line.
“Get lost!!!”
Cronus was unpleasant to his sight, so Lorne roared at him furiously.
“This sword is mine! Everyone, you should leave as soon as possible! Otherwise, I can’t guarantee your safety!”
Lorne was now at full power. His oppressive aura spread through the air, causing everyone’s expressions to change. They had not expected Lorne to be this powerful! This aura was far stronger than the aura he emitted before, especially when he was tens of thousands of feet tall. He gave off an oppressive feeling!
Aphrodite immediately distanced herself thousands of miles away, indicating that she would not interfere, but she did not leave either. Lorne glanced at her and did not pay any attention to her. After all, he did not want to destroy her mercilessly.
Zeus and the others’ expressions changed. They had not expected Aphrodite to comply so easily.
Cronus was naturally unwilling as well. He said to Lorne with a dark face, “Lorne, are you really going to go against the Titan Court?”
“So what if I am? I was the one who discovered this divine sword first! Why? Was this sword yours to claim in the first place?” Lorne snapped at him. He smiled coldly.
“If you don’t retire now, I will not be polite to you!”
Lorne felt that the lightning had weakened. He knew that the divine sword was not far away from being born.
“Damn it! God-King! We’ll fight it out with him!”
Hyperion’s old face turned purple with anger, and the divine power on his body faintly exploded.
He was stopped by Oceanus. Cronus glanced at him.
“Shut up!”
When he saw his fellow Titan actually preparing to attack, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he could not help but curse.
Hyperion was a little stunned, and he looked at Cronus in disbelief.
Why would the God-King chastise him? After all, he was doing it for him!
All sorts of emotions erupted at once. Anger, anger, confusion, disappointment, and so on.
Lorne, who was far away, was stunned when he saw this. He laughed out loud. He had not expected the other party to actually harbor internal conflicts.
Cronus did not have the time to pay attention to Hyperion at that moment, instead, he said to Lorne again, “Lorne, if you withdraw from the battle for the divine sword, how about we write off all the grudges between you and the Titans? Also, if you want to join us, you will be granted leadership over an entire faction. How about that?”
“How about that indeed!”
Lorne sneered. He had not expected this old man to be this cunning.
Not only could he get a divine sword for free, but he could also gain a powerful fighter. There was nothing more beautiful than this in the world.
Cronus saw that Lorne was not even pretending to entertain the offer. He was furious beyond measure. He glanced at Hyperion and Oceanus. Both of them nodded silently.
Then he looked at Zeus, also exchanging silent nods. He could not help but take a deep breath and prepare to summon his power.
Suddenly, something else happened. The dark clouds in the sky that had not dispersed for years disappeared. The divine sword floating in the air also sensed danger and prepared to cut through space and escape immediately.
This scene only lasted for a moment. Cronus and Zeus did not react and could only watch the divine sword leave. However, Lorne, who was already prepared, moved beyond the speed of light.
His large hand, which was hundreds of meters long, gently reached out and held the sword.
“I’ve been waiting for you!”
Clang!
Immediately, the divine sword let out a clanging sound and wanted to resist. However, Lorne was far too powerful. It could not escape.
With the divine sword in hand, Lorne instantly felt a powerful aura coming from the sword. He was pleasantly surprised.
“Good sword!”
Holding the hilt of the sword with his right hand, Lorne gently waved it at the endless sea in front of him.
Bang!!!
An arc of light traveled from the sword, and the entire sea began to boil.
A deep crack appeared in the ground, and even the seawater was forced to the sides by the forceful opening of a void in space.
Hiss! So powerful!
As he took in this scene, Lorne sucked in a breath of cold air. Although one-third of the divine power in his body had disappeared, it was a price well-paid.
The divine sword had a spirit, and it knew that it would not be able to escape, so it could only accept its fate.
“Don’t worry! In my hands, you won’t ever be mistreated!”
Lorne sized up the sword in front of him and spoke confidently.
Wuuuu!!
As if in response, the divine sword trembled slightly with a hum..
