"So you think the god behind this quest is Loki, that Loki?" the doctor asked.
"Yes, and there has always been a belief in academia that in addition to being the God of Lies and Tricks, Loki is also the God of Fire, which corresponds to the fire at Chernobyl," Zhang Heng said.
To be honest, he did not expect Loki to be the mastermind behind this quest. Although Zhang Heng and Loki had never met before, the two had actually fought against each other in secret because of Jormungandr. Zhang Heng also learned from Meinan that Loki had been targeting him for a long time.
So when he realized that he entered Loki's quest in this round of the game, Zhang Heng did not think it was a coincidence. As for the others, they were just unlucky to be involved in a quest designed by Loki to deal with him.
The doctor's expression was constantly changing. Obviously, he was also thinking about what Zhang Heng had just said, and he had to admit that Zhang Heng's speculation was somewhat credible. Not long ago, he and the repairman had also seen the mysterious white mare.
However, he did not move the TT-33 in his hand away from Zhang Heng's chest. Instead, he kept a little distance from the mouse beside him.
"The God of Lies and Tricks is between us right now. This is not the explanation I want to hear," the doctor said.
"The truth is always unpleasant," Zhang Heng said.
And when he finished this sentence, the atmosphere became subtle.
Almost all the players on the scene took a defensive posture at the next moment, because no one knew if Loki was standing next to them.
This was Loki, not an ancient god that was about to be forgotten, nor was he a new god that was still learning and growing. He was a traditional god that had existed for thousands of years, and at the same time, he still possessed great power and was still in the ascendant period.
Gods like Loki were not easy to deal with, let alone Loki, who was known for his tricks and lies.
"According to what you said, Loki is the key character to be found in the main quest. If I shoot each of you in the head, will I be able to find out who Loki is and clear this quest?" the doctor said in a cold tone.
"I advise you not to do that," Zhang Heng said.
"Why? Loki is a god, and a god can't be killed by mortals, right? So I'll shoot at you, and we'll know the result soon." The doctor loaded the pistol in his hand.
"Who told you that the gods can't be killed by mortals?" Zhang Heng said calmly. "I've killed more than one."
"…"
"That's perfect. Once we kill Loki, all of us will be able to clear the stage," the Doctor said.
"Although the gods are not invincible, you can't kill them with a TT-33," Zhang Heng said. "You can't even kill me with this gun. If I were you, I would put the gun down because Rocky wants you to do that. He's good at stirring up suspicion and disputes."
The doctor hesitated again when he heard Kratos's words. In the end, he saw the boy in the combat uniform pull out the military dagger from his waist and throw it at his feet.
As usual, he was the first to respond to Zhang Heng. He raised his hands, indicating that he had no other weapons. At the same time, he said, "Simon is right. Since we know that Loki is behind this quest, we can use peaceful means to find him among us."
"I think so too." Mouse immediately agreed and hurriedly threw down the weapon in his hand as if he was throwing away a hot potato.
However, to everyone's surprise, when it was Kratos's turn, the latter said, "I refuse."
The doctor immediately turned the muzzle and pointed it at Kratos.
"You are Loki?"
"Did the radiation damage your brain? How can you tell that I'm Loki?" Kratos asked coldly.
"Then why do you object?" The doctor looked serious. It was obvious that he was serious. If Kratos couldn't give him a satisfactory explanation, he would not hesitate to pull the trigger.
"We need to talk, but we can't abandon our weapons. We still need them to deal with Loki. Don't forget that this is his quest. Even if we work together, I'm afraid we will be at a disadvantage," Kratos said.
"What you said makes sense." Mouse quickly picked up the weapon he threw down. The boy in the combat uniform looked at Zhang Heng, and when he saw Zhang Heng nodding, he bent down and put away his military dagger.
After that, all the players looked at the doctor. The doctor thought for a full half a minute before finally deciding to put away his pistol. However, he did not put the TT-33 into the holster. Instead, he chose to hold it in his hand, pointing the muzzle at the ground instead of at anyone else.
"If you want to talk, then let's talk. I'm not Loki. This is obvious. Otherwise, I wouldn't have ended up in this situation," the doctor said. "And after we separated, your bodies have been deteriorating at an accelerated rate. This is enough to prove that I'm not the one behind this." "Err, don't get me wrong.
"Well, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that you are Loki," Mouse said. "I'm just saying my own opinion. As we all know, Loki is an excellent shape-shifter, so he can disguise himself as if he has been seriously irradiated. In fact, among us, except for Simon, we basically don't look good. As for whether our bodies deteriorated after you left, this question … Although you said you came back on the third day, we don't know how long you left. If you are Loki, maybe you didn't leave Pripyat at all and have been following us secretly."
After the doctor tried to prove his "innocence," the boy in the combat uniform also spoke up, "I have always admired Simon. He defeated the three major guilds and the mysterious β, becoming the top scorer in the first round of the proxy war. After that, I began to search for all kinds of information related to him on the forum. Because of that, I have a lot of arguments with the three major guilds. Kratos said that my code name is a little familiar. He must have seen the posts where I argued with others on the forum. Of course, I know that Loki can also pretend to be Simon's fan, but I don't think he has the time to spend on the forum like me," the boy in the combat uniform said in a self-deprecating manner.
"Is it my turn now?" Mouse looked around and said nervously, "I'm not Loki. There's no doubt about that. Otherwise, Coconut wouldn't have given me her Whisper before she was hospitalized. What I mean is, if I'm the one who harmed her, there's no reason for her to trust me so much."
