Just call me Thor - Chapter 628
Chapter 628: Boring
The replacement of the Tower Spirit passed without incident.
With the fiftieth floor resolved, Mike didn’t linger and continued his climb.
On the fifty-first floor, he used lightning to effortlessly slay a demon creature, instantly reclaiming the floor from the Supreme Demon God.
On the fifty-second floor, Mike didn’t even bother using a weapon.
He simply punched a Supreme Being to death with his bare hands.
At this point, Mike was so overwhelmingly powerful that he didn’t even need to use skills to kill other races’ Supreme Beings.
The outcome of the battles was never in doubt.
Next floor!
Mike’s blood surged with excitement as he experienced, for the first time, the sheer power of being a Supreme Being.
Of course, even in battle, Mike was constantly experimenting with ways to improve his strength.
At his level, further progress was incredibly difficult.
No opponent of equal power could pose a challenge to him.
Before long, Mike had cleared floors fifty through sixty.
At the same time, humanity dispatched its most powerful warriors to occupy and guard the reclaimed floors.
With the Tower Spirit’s assistance, humanity’s Supreme Being seeds began pouring into the Tower of Truth to strengthen themselves.
These individuals, who were already destined for supreme power, had the potential to soar to unimaginable heights.
But due to the Tower of Truth’s previous instability, they had been unable to climb and level up for the past ten years.
No matter.
Thor was back, and everything was back on track.
Even though humanity’s leadership hadn’t officially announced it, everyone could sense it.
Thor, who had been missing for years, had returned!
Now, with floors fifty through sixty cleared, more floors would soon follow.
After finishing his climb, Mike returned to the ninety-ninth floor for a nap.
After waking up, Mike went out for a bit.
He made sure to check on Maxen, urging him to train harder.
Mike even told him that he had spoken with Ares and that Maxen was just one step away from his final breakthrough.
Maxen nodded, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t seem to break through the last barrier.
Mike sighed but didn’t say much.
He glanced at the time and said seriously,
“I’ve got an appointment and some business to take care of. I’ll be off.”

After leaving, Mike didn’t head straight to the Tower of Truth.
With his current strength, he could challenge the Tower at any time without restriction.
But Mike wasn’t in a hurry.
The Tower of Truth no longer held many secrets for him.
Instead, he made a trip to the Abyss.
In the First Abyss, Mike found a group of people.
He had never met them before, but the sword energy emanating from them was very familiar.
Nine Nine-Star Lords, humanity’s most important top-tier combatants.
The nine swordsmen, all dressed in white, sat cross-legged with their swords resting beside them.
The First Abyss was the last place Ares had stayed.
They were here not only to guard the Abyss but also to wait for Ares’s return.
The leader of the swordsmen couldn’t even sense Mike’s presence.
Even though Mike stood right in front of him, to his perception, the space was empty.
Mike’s strength was beyond the comprehension of these Nine-Star Lords.
Only when Mike chose to reveal himself did they realize he was there.
To them, Mike’s aura felt incredibly weak—like that of an ordinary soldier.
But after ten years, how could Mike’s strength possibly still be at the level of a soldier?
And besides, no soldier-level being could possibly reach the First Abyss.
The nine swordsmen immediately understood.
They cast a respectful glance at Mike, said nothing, and quietly stood up to leave.
From beginning to end, not a single word was exchanged.
Everything was understood without being said.
Mike’s method of persuading these swordsmen was simple.
He didn’t even bother trying to reason with them.
All it took was a single glance for them to understand what Mike needed them to do.
With the power of the Eye of Truth, Mike could convey countless pieces of information with just one look.
If he wanted, he could even control their minds and turn them into puppets.
But as a Supreme Being, Mike found such behavior beneath him.
“Boring.”
Mike looked at the now-empty First Abyss and felt a bit bored.
For the next while, Mike repeated the same routine:
He continued challenging the Tower of Truth, assigning humanity’s powerful warriors to guard the newly conquered floors.
In his free time, he chatted with children, visited Apollo, and checked in on old friends.
Time passed quickly.
One day, sitting on the ninety-ninth floor and watching the clouds roll by, Mike felt a bit weary.
He never thought he’d grow tired of crushing weaker opponents.
Mike sighed.
“Being Supreme… really is boring.”
By now, humanity controlled everything below the eightieth floor of the Tower of Truth.
With a single yawn, Mike had already conquered the eighty-first floor.
But that was as far as it went.
Humanity’s top-tier combat power had already been fully mobilized.
There weren’t many idle Nine-Star Lords left.
And while assigning Nine-Star Lords to guard the Tower of Truth, they also needed to keep some in reserve as backup forces.
In case of emergencies, these reserves could provide timely support.
According to Professor Gregory’s plans, they not only needed backup forces but also regular rotations.
Guarding each floor of the Tower of Truth was an incredibly important task—one that determined humanity’s survival.
It couldn’t be taken lightly.
Given humanity’s current strength, guarding up to the eighty-first floor was already the limit.
But…
The eighty-second floor was the Dragon Clan’s Forbidden Zone.
Mike’s Greed Source had come from a golden dragon.
And that golden dragon’s soul was now in the Force of Nature, but its body…
Was still on the eighty-second floor!
Before setting out, Mike declared righteously,
“This is for humanity’s great cause! It’s definitely not for the gold!”
—
Tower of Truth, Eighty-Second Floor.
A bolt of lightning descended, and the world fell silent.
The demon creatures left behind by the Supreme Demon God were wiped out in an instant.
Mike paid no attention to the scattered spoils of battle and began searching for his golden dragon.
Soon, he made a surprising discovery.
“Huh?”
Mike was astonished.
The Dragon Clan’s Forbidden Zone hadn’t been destroyed?
How strange!
Any part of the Tower that fell into the Supreme Demon God’s hands was usually left in ruins, devoid of life.
Yet here, on the eighty-second floor, there were still living dragons?
Mike approached the entrance to the Forbidden Zone and knocked lightly.
But there was no response.
Mike was certain the dragons inside had heard him.
But they simply refused to respond.
Mike realized he needed to speak in a way the dragons would understand.
So, he released Vladimir.
Reluctantly stepping forward, Vladimir raised his voice and shouted,
“Open the door! If you’ve got the guts to hide in there, then open the door!”
“Do you even know who’s outside?”
“He’s the Fourth Bro of humanity’s Supreme Being Morpheus, the Fourth Bro of Supreme Being Ares, the Fourth Bro of Supreme Being Apollo…”
The door opened.
Vladimir extended a gentlemanly hand.
“Master, after you.”
Mike glanced at him.
“Next time, just introduce me directly.
No need to list all the Supreme Beings—it’s too long-winded.”
The Dragon Clan’s elder stepped forward to greet him.
“Fourth Bro—I mean, esteemed Supreme Being Thor, the Dragon Clan and humanity…”
Mike cut him off bluntly.
“Let’s set everything else aside for now.
First, tell me how you managed to survive.”
Although the Dragon Clan was considered one of the Upper Three Races, their actual strength wasn’t impressive.
Among the Upper Three Races, the Dragon Clan was the weakest.
The Supreme Demon God was known for showing no mercy and leaving no survivors.
Yet somehow, they had survived.
There had to be a reason.
The Dragon Clan elder hesitated before asking cautiously,
“Is that Master still in this world?”
It was obvious who he meant—Ares.
Mike shook his head.
“He’s gone to the Heavenly Realm.”
Mike added,
“I’m the Supreme Being now. If you have something to say, you can say it to me.”
“Very well.”
The elder hesitated for a long time before sighing heavily and leading Mike deeper inside.
He guided Mike through a narrow passageway to a hidden chamber.
“Go on in. The Dragon God is waiting for you.”
Dragon God?
Mike was surprised.
Typically, only humanity referred to their strongest as Supreme Beings.
Other races usually used the term Progenitor.
The title “Dragon God” was highly unusual.
Mike stepped inside without hesitation.
He had no fear of traps or ambushes.
In fact, he would welcome an ambush from the Supreme Demon God!
Inside the chamber, a pair of golden eyes stared back at him.
This must be the so-called Dragon God.
The Dragon God wasted no time on pleasantries or introductions.
It got straight to the point.
The Dragon God spoke in a low, solemn voice,
“If you kill the Supreme Demon God, this world will also be destroyed.Every living being in this world will perish alongside it…”
The Dragon God was confident.
It believed that once Thor heard this, he would understand what needed to be done.
Killing the Supreme Demon God would result in mutual destruction—a fate where everyone died together.
But as the Dragon God spoke, Mike’s face broke into a bitter smile.
Seeing Mike’s expression, the Dragon God froze.
Its voice faltered as it stared at Mike in disbelief.
“You… you’re not a being of this world!”
