48 Hours a Day - Chapter 1323
Chapter 1323: It Was Getting Late
Seth lay in the ventilation duct, his ears pressed against the wall. He didn’t move at all, as if his entire body had been petrified. Only after a moment did his face reveal a hint of joy.
Hearing the sounds coming from upstairs, he knew that Thor had already started fighting with those humans.
To be honest, Seth was quite curious about the outcome of this battle. Thor, the most powerful god in the Nordic god system, was fighting against that mysterious human organization. The other party had a weapon that could kill gods, previously, he had already successfully killed some of the weaker gods. This time, he had come prepared. If he could get rid of Thor, that would naturally be the outcome Seth was most happy to see.
Taking a step back, even if he couldn’t kill Thor, he could at least heavily injure that boorish man. His greatest threat in recent times had been eliminated. Other than that, Seth naturally didn’t have any good intentions towards the humans above him, he obviously knew what those guys were planning. They wanted to hide behind the scenes and incite a war between the new and Old Gods.
And although Seth was their partner, he didn’t intend to let them be so happy. Watching from the sidelines wasn’t as lively as personally coming down. Unfortunately, the current him didn’t have the time to appreciate this masterpiece of his, just as he was about to take advantage of the excitement to escape this place.
Seth opened the ventilation pipe again. He first threw the unconscious mechanical god down, and then jumped down together with him. However, after running a few steps with the mechanical god on his back, he stopped, through the glass upstairs, Seth saw a young man dressed in a hip-hop style blocking the front door.
The other party should have been scared by Thor’s hammer when they first met, so he did not run in with Thor. But obviously, he did not want to lose Thor’s trail, so he stood guard at the front door.., he waited for his new companions to arrive.
Seeing this, Seth scratched his head, feeling a headache.
He didn’t want to waste any more time here, because he and Thor were the key figures that both the old and new god camps were looking for. They were in the eye of the storm, and the longer they waited, the more people would come, it would be more difficult to escape.
Seth rolled his eyes and saw the hounds that Artemis had brought along on the other side of the street. Most of the hounds were surrounding the god of electricity and the god of guns, helping Artemis to confront them, however, there were also a few hounds scattered nearby, maintaining vigilance. One of them was very close to the building where he was now.
Seth found two hams from a drawer under a desk, opened a window in the bathroom, and threw half of the hams out, about thirty meters away from the Hound.
With the Hound’s sensitive nose, it immediately smelled the meat, but probably because its owner had ordered it, it did not run to pick up the hams, however, the saliva that came out of its mouth betrayed its true thoughts.
Seeing this, Seth increased the price again and threw another half of the sausage. This time, it was thrown ten meters in front of the hound.
This time, the hound finally could not hold it in anymore. Its duty was to be alert of the surrounding area, so running ten meters to eat the ham sausage was not considered going AWOL. It was just that its body was originally strong, that small piece couldn’t even be stuffed between its teeth. After eating a piece, it wanted to eat a second piece, and after eating a second piece, it wanted to eat a third piece… before it knew it, Seth had led it to the front door, it met that young man who was dressed very cheerfully.
The latter didn’t take the dog to heart. Right now, all his attention was on the building, or more accurately, on Thor in the building. Although he couldn’t take Thor’s hammer.., he thought that it was not a problem to deal with a dog.
However, what he did not expect was that instead of finding trouble with the Beast, the Hound found him first. It barked non-stop at the sight of him and revealed its sharp teeth. It took half a step back, then, it accelerated and pounced on him.
The young man sneered at the situation. He reached out and took off the Marshall stereo on his back and pressed the play button.
The next moment, as the sit down Behumble’s music sounded, the hound’s body suddenly trembled and it actually sat down on the ground. Then, its body uncontrollably swayed along with the music.
Seth, who was upstairs, saw that the young man’s attention was attracted by the hound, so he did not waste this hard-earned opportunity. He carried the mechanical God and jumped down from the side window, the sound of their landing was completely drowned out by the noisy music, so naturally, they did not attract the young man’s attention.
Seter did not turn back. He spread his legs and ran in the opposite direction of the tube-shaped building! He tried to distance himself from the two opposing gods as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, the divine power in his body was still sealed. Previously, with Thor by his side, he really could not use any tricks. Fortunately, his body was strong enough. Even if he could not use divine power for the time being.., however, carrying a person on his back, he still ran as fast as he could. In less than ten minutes, he ran two kilometers away.
Seeing that he was temporarily out of danger, Seth stood in front of a rice shop and took a breath. He was thinking about where he should go next, but in the next moment, he suddenly had a feeling that he was locked on by someone.
Seth was shocked and didn’t dare to stop. He hurriedly ran into an alley at the side. He specifically chose a narrow and difficult place to run. This was the old city district. Although the planning in the early years wasn’t bad, as time passed.., it was inevitable that it would become harder and harder to adapt to the development of the city, so there were many places to build roads and rebuild.
This gave Seth plenty of places to cover his tracks. During this time, Seth also had the thought of getting rid of the mechanical god on his back. Previously, he had convinced the mechanical God to kill Zhang Heng, however, he had sold the mechanical god off with a flip of his hand. In reality, the two of them didn’t have much of a relationship. The reason why Seth wanted to run away with him was purely because he felt that the mechanical god was a rare commodity, moreover, the god of machinery was a reputable person in the new God camp. If he was really blocked by someone, he could be used to negotiate terms at the critical moment.
Therefore, Seth thought about it and decided to continue carrying this burden. The person behind him did not seem to be in a hurry. He just hung on to him from far away. He neither showed himself nor was he shaken off.
Seth still had the feeling that he was being watched. He ran for a distance and arrived in front of a snack street. At this time, the sun was about to set. Seth looked up at the gradually darkening sky, then, he carried the mechanical god and rushed into the Snack Street.
