Chapter 207: Odin: There Are Always People Scolding Me!

Today, however, Odin couldn't shake his discomfort; he suddenly lost the sensation of Thor's divine power fluctuations.

To be precise, he couldn't feel Mjölnir, and there was still his enchantment on it...

After a moment's hesitation, Odin vanished from his location.

The old man's sudden disappearance from the crowd went largely unnoticed. In this era, people had long grown accustomed to the existence of superpowers due to their experiences with the Chitauri.

Odin searched the area and eventually appeared at the spot where Mjölnir had vanished, high above the red enchantment in the sky.

The old and cunning Odin naturally didn't rush in directly. He extended his finger and lightly touched the red barrier.

"Shhh..."

A sharp pain shot through him, and Odin withdrew his finger, frowning in concentration. He gathered his divine power and struck the barrier forcefully.

The tremendous divine power hit the barrier, causing a powerful shockwave, but it quickly recovered.

Odin: "???"

"..."

Wanda suddenly clutched her forehead with one hand, groaning softly, and staggered. Thor caught her.

"What's wrong? Are you okay?"

Because they were in a black-and-white space, Wanda couldn't see the change in her face, but the red light flashing in her eyes quickly faded.

She gently pushed Thor away, and his arm around her tightened slightly.

Miss Wanda's forehead was suddenly marked with black lines.

A magic sphere formed quietly in her palm, but she hesitated to use it.

She felt as if she had shot herself in the foot with a stone, having set up a mess for Thor...

The girl was still kind-hearted. Trapping someone in an illusion was no longer fitting, and harming others was too much.

"I'm fine, just a bit dizzy. Let me go..."

Wanda struggled to stand up but was overwhelmed by another wave of dizziness.

"Uhh..."

Thor watched her fall into his arms again, then stood up and approached once more...

This time, Wanda closed her eyes, and the Chaos force in her hand suddenly exploded. Instead of targeting Thor, it spread outward.

At that moment, the world seemed to freeze—whether it was the man punching the table, the black-and-white TV showing advertisements on the bar counter, or the half-filled wine in the bartender's glass, everything became a frozen tableau.

The only one unaffected was Thor. He patted Wanda, who was unresponsive, and realized the situation.

It was likely that Wanda was using more mental energy to combat the barrier's external attack, resulting in her current state.

On the black-and-white TV at the bar, advertisements for various bath powders played—

"Escape to a world of your own, where all your troubles are far away from you."

The energy within Wanda grew increasingly volatile, as though she might collapse at any moment. Thor felt as if he was holding a powder keg ready to explode.

Thor sighed and channeled divine power into Wanda's mind, trying to stabilize her fragile spirit.

The main task was to make Wanda accept reality and give up seeking solace in this illusory world.

It seemed simple, but it was easier said than done!

Forcing a breach in this world was akin to detonating a nuclear bomb.

Seeing Wanda's condition, Thor was alarmed. He wondered who had the audacity to attack the enchantment...

Whoever it is, I hope I find out who you are!

Outside the barrier, Odin gazed at the red barrier with a dark expression.

The majestic All-Father, struggling to break an enchantment on Earth, found it deeply frustrating despite his efforts.

Even if he had deliberately restrained his full strength on Earth, it was still embarrassing.

Odin cast a final, penetrating glance in a certain direction, extended his hand, and summoned a golden spear that radiated rich divine power and destructive energy with each swing.

The Spear of Eternity—Gungnir.

"Your Majesty, trust me, don't do this."

A faint voice came from behind him.

The Ancient One appeared, clad in her iconic pale yellow robe, her expression neutral and devoid of emotion.
