Just call me Thor

Chapter 492: I already do

Chapter 492: I already doAfter a long day of classes, Mike returned to his dorm. Activating the room's built-in defensive array, he teleported back to the Forest of Truth.

He remained at the forest's edge, waiting for midnight, rather than venturing deeper. As midnight approached, Mike returned to his private space.

0.25 seconds before his arrival, a green light erupted from Vladimir's head, illuminating the entire space.

Gabriel looked surprised. *Was that really necessary?*

Glancing at Vladimir's green hat, Mike reached out and tapped it experimentally. The hat changed! Areas previously containing gold had transformed into copper.

After experimenting on Vladimir, Mike

"Wait," Mike interrupted, his expression grave. "If a God can descend their power, does that mean this floor has a connection to the Temple of Truth?"

"Well, yes..." The Tower Spirit knew what Mike was worried about. "But... if the Supreme Demon God wanted to corrupt the Temple of Truth, your Third Bro wouldn't just sit idly by,

would he?"

Losing nineteen floors of the Tower of Truth wasn't a major crisis for humanity. The Tower Spirit itself wasn't overly concerned, patiently waiting for Thor to conquer each floor. However, if the Temple of Truth was involved, that was a different story!

All beings above level 990 in the Tower of Truth would enter the Temple of Truth! If the Supreme Dem God into the Temple of Truth, the consequences

dire!

Because of the severity, the Tower Spirit believed the Supreme Demon God wouldn't risk it. After all, Apollo was still on the 99th floor.

Mike pressed on. "The Temple of Truth is connected to the 34th floor. The black fog could use this connection to corrupt the Temple. Let me confirm: if this happens, the consequences are

severe, right?"

"It depends..." the Tower Spirit mumbled. "Actually, your Second Bro left a message in the Temple of Truth."

"What message?" Mike was always curious about Ares' embarrassing past.

The Tower Spirit revealed the message: "A Temple of Truth without Gods is a good temple."

Mike raised an eyebrow, understanding Ares' implication. Gods, looking down on the world, saw all things as ants. Without the constraints of the rules of Truth, these Gods would be worshipped by all races.

And humanity, being one of those races, would be enslaved. In fact, this was how things were in ancient times.

For Ares, even Gods could be killed. Following this logic, even if the Temple of Truth was corrupted, it would give human Supreme Beings an excuse to act...

"Then it's none of my business." Mike shrugged, unconcerned. He didn't have a favorable impression of the beings within the Temple of Truth. Poseidon was always causing trouble.

The Tower Spirit hesitated. "There's something I'm not sure I should say."

Mike: "Then don't."

Undeterred, the Tower Spirit continued, "If the Temple of Truth is corrupted, it won't be

good for either Apollo or Ares to intervene."

Mike realized the gravity of the situation. Even a weakened God, once corrupted, would require significant effort to neutralize. Prevention was the best approach.

"You should've said that earlier! Then I would've understood!" Mike declared. "I'll sever the connection between the 34th floor and the Temple of Truth. You pay double. That's all. My

Truth Core Crystal is out of battery. Gotta go."

With that, Mike ended the conversation.

Before heading to the 34th floor, Mike checked his status one last time:
