"Is this rain ever going to fall or not?" A terrorist leaned against the cave, put his gun down by his feet, lit a cigarette, and said to his companion while looking up at the sky.
The sky was overcast with dark clouds, giving people a suffocating sense of oppression.
"My God, Ghiannush, you goddamn son of a bitch, you actually have cigarettes? Fuck, give me one quick." His companion said angrily, watching the smoke rings Ghiannush blew out.
"Alright, alright, Jalali, brother, just don't tell anyone else." Ghiannush took out a cigarette and tossed one to Jalali.
Jalali caught the cigarette and greedily sniffed it in front of his nose.
Oh, that familiar scent, perfect!
Well, actually it was just a pack of Marlboro cigarettes that cost less than five dollars, but for these guys, it was a fucking gift from God.
"Ghiannush, where did you get this good stuff?" Jalali took a deep drag of the cigarette and then exhaled heavily.
"Remember when we took out that squad of American soldiers? One of the guys had two packs in his pocket." Ghiannush said casually.
"What?! Two packs? You bastard, you didn't even share with me. I'll curse you." Jalali took a puff and said resentfully.
"Come on, brother, what about your two bottles of whiskey? I've been wanting to try those for a long time." Ghiannush raised an eyebrow and said.
"Oh!" Jalali took a deep drag of the cigarette, then looked at the cigarette that had burned down to the filter, and angrily threw it on the ground.
"That's right, I'd love to drink those two bottles of mine too. Maybe we should find a suitable day, bring my two bottles of whiskey and some cigars, grab a few women for an interesting game, and of course, we can't forget the barbecue." Jalali waved his hands, speaking with a dreamy expression.
"But we can't do any of that here." Ghiannush shattered Jalali fantasy.
"Well, you're right, we can't do anything now. We can only hide in this cave. This damn weather, who knows when the boss will change his mind and let us leave this place." As he spoke, Jalali looked up at the sky and cursed.
"It's all because of those pussy Ten Rings, right? Those guys actually got fucked twice in one month, what a disgrace." Ghiannush said with some disgust.
"It's because of the demise of those cowards that everyone's on edge now. What a waste of this damn weather! I hope it doesn't rain." Jalali said, looking at the sky with some worry.
The gloomy sky seemed to indicate that a rainstorm could come at any moment.
Rainy days are weather that terrorists like, because on such days, many little mice hiding underground would come out seeking water sources.
But now Jalali doesn't hope for rain, after all, it looks like it would be a heavy rain, and a heavy rain could allow those barely surviving people to hide for a long time again.
"Let's go, let's check on Molke in the other cave. I heard he's on duty today too. It's too boring just standing here like idiots." Ghiannush suggested.
Jalali, who was equally bored out of his mind, naturally agreed without hesitation. Just standing here was indeed quite boring, and moreover, it wasn't really serving any purpose.
After all, there were still plenty of lookouts keeping watch at the entrance of the valley, so there was no worry about anyone being able to directly attack.
Ghiannush and Jalali walked towards another cave. Due to the terrible weather today, basically everyone except those on patrol or guard duty was hiding in the caves, either sound asleep or playing cards.
In front of another cave, Molke, who was equally bored, saw the figures of Ghiannush and Jalali, with whom he had a life-and-death friendship, from afar. Molke excitedly raised his gun, waving it to greet them.
Ghiannush also waved back in response, but in that instant, the situation changed dramatically. A bolt of lightning with tremendous force broke through the thick cloud layer and struck down, directly hitting Molke.
Molke turned into a "charred corpse" right before Ghiannush and Jalali's eyes.
"Oh shit! No wonder my mom always told me never to point metal objects at the sky before it rains!" Jalali said with a shocked expression. This was truly seeing a ghost in this ghostly weather.
Looking at the black figure lying on the ground in the distance, Ghiannush said with his mouth slightly open.
"Your mom was so right!"
Ghiannush and Jalali both took this as a random event, an incredible but possible occurrence that had just happened before their eyes.
But then, Ghiannush and his companion discovered that things weren't so simple.
One lightning bolt after another tore through the sky, illuminating the gloomy heavens, but that dazzling light made everyone cower in fear.
Because each bolt of lightning found its endpoint in this valley.
In an instant, the valley was covered in lightning, countless bolts washing over every corner of the valley.
"Run! Quick, run! Run into the cave!" Ghiannush slapped Jalali, urging him to flee into the cave.
But the cave in front of them was shattered by lightning, with rocks tumbling down. The cave collapsed like a pile of sand.
"Fuck! Quick, run towards the valley exit! You idiot, throw away your gun!" Ghiannush angrily shouted at Jalali, who was already stunned with fear beside him.
But Jalali was oblivious to Ghiannush angry shouts. Ghiannush turned to look and found that Jalali, standing just four or five meters away from him, had fallen face-first onto the ground.
Ghiannush wanted to go over and help Jalali up, but he noticed that Jalali's hair was standing on end, and there was a faint smoke coming from his body.
At this moment, Ghiannush realized that there was a strange light flickering on the ground.
"Fuck! The ground can conduct electricity!" Ghiannush finally reacted, but it was already too late. At this moment, Ghiannush had nowhere to escape.
Looking at the countless lightning bolts descending from the sky, all Ghiannush could see was a vast whiteness. What was happening? Was God punishing them? No, that's impossible!
Ghiannush picked up a gun beside him and fired wildly at the sky. He didn't believe this was divine punishment. There must be someone, someone controlling all of this.
But Ghiannush's actions were destined to be fruitless - how could a human possibly defy nature?
Following the trajectory path, the thunder ultimately engulfed Ghiannush. In the split second before Ghiannush body and soul were shattered, in the cracks of the collapsing valley, he vaguely glimpsed a figure bathed in lightning.
...
Raiden slowly descended from the sky. Of course, this wasn't because Raiden had learned to fly, but because the release of massive energy created a force field around Raiden's body that made him levitate.
"The show's over!" Raiden exhaled, turning to Tony and Yinsen and saying casually.
"Clap... clap... clap clap clap."
Tony and Yinsen couldn't help but applaud... though Yinsen applause in werewolf form did look a bit strange.
"A miracle, this is definitely power that only a god could possess" Tony marveled.
At this moment, Tony also realized he was still too weak, his armor was still too weak.
Raiden quickly waved his hand downwards, saying.
"Alright, alright, it's done. We should go. Tony, call Happy to come pick us up."
"Okay, okay," Tony said somewhat absentmindedly. In Tony heart, a seed began to grow frantically.
...
In distant Asgard, in an ancient palace, on that lofty throne, the noble and divine king opened his one remaining eye.
And the moment he opened his eye, his other eye, in the place hidden by the eye patch, emitted a rainbow-colored light.
He was the king of Asgard, ruler of the Nine Realms, wielder of the world's authority, god of gods - he was Odin.
