Chapter 576 Everything was calculated
After all, Riley, having borrowed Thor's hammer and temporarily gained the amplification of Thor's power, had a million ways to deal with Amora—for example, by using the techniques taught by the Ancient One to knock Amora's soul out of "Rie Parker's" body, thus allowing the soul to leave the body and return to its own—but having dealt with dark energy quite a bit, Riley knew that doing so would definitely do more harm than good.
In this unique universe that blends the worldview of "Jackie Chan Adventures," dark energy and righteous energy are like the yin and yang of Tai Chi.
Once righteous energy becomes too strong, dark energy will act like a spring squeezed to its limit. Though it may appear silent and easily bullied, it secretly harbors resentment, waiting for the moment you are most vulnerable to strike you squarely in the heart!
Riley's lesson in this regard has been profound enough to be remembered.
Just like last time, the Holy Lord from a parallel world actually managed to come to this world. He even teamed up with Mr. Negative and Kingpin to set a trap for Riley, giving him a real scare.
And when Riley learned that his parents had been attacked by Sandmen and that the Thirteenth District had suffered heavy casualties, he simply wanted to save the lives of the Thirteenth District agents, but by a twist of fate, he ended up in the timeline of Demon Slayer and was targeted by the Goddess of Death, temporarily disabling his ability to travel through time.
Every time Riley thought he was strong enough, invincible, and that nothing could possibly go wrong.
The dark forces would use some method, one that even Riley couldn't defend against, to tip the scales back. They would let Riley experience firsthand what it meant for an enemy to come from the sky to be truly treacherous!
So when he heard that Xiaoyu was being valued, he realized that he had most likely triggered the "safety net" mechanism of the dark energy and was about to "strike it rich".
Even though Riley acted immediately, relying on his intelligence advantage as a time traveler, he defeated Amora, who possessed Loki's script, and thwarted her conspiracy...
And who knows, maybe some weirdo like "Tamamora," "Tamora," "Do you have Mora?"... will pop up later and continue to carry out similar operations.
Because Amora failed too quickly this time, the dark forces judged "this villain is not strong enough", causing the difficulty to be increased several levels in the next counterattack.
The brewing conspiracy can also deviate from the original storyline and become completely unpredictable.
At that point, Riley's intelligence advantage as a time traveler would become worthless. Everyone would be implicated by him and have to face powerful enemies and disasters that shouldn't have appeared on this timeline.
the most important is……
To describe it like a game, Riley is almost at the maximum level now. Opponents like Amora can't give him a qualitative leap in actual combat.
It would be better to use Amora, who came to us willingly, as a whetstone. Let her serve as a training ground for Peter and his group, who have also improved considerably and are no longer useful as sparring partners for ordinary criminals.
That's why Riley, after leaving behind countermeasures, acted as if he hadn't noticed anything and let Amora push her plan forward.
Amora, however, was unaware of the true intentions and concerns hidden behind Riley's actions...
However, the mere realization that every step she was taking had already been anticipated and seen through by Riley was enough to drain the color from Amora's face instantly! A chill ran through her, rising from the depths of her heart!
She had always believed that Riley's most terrifying quality was his power...
But now it seems...
On the contrary, this very power limited Riley's performance!
After all, when you can take down your enemy with a single basic attack...
Who would bother to devise so many traps, waiting for the other party to come to them, and then willingly walk towards their own defeat?
But this guy is a bit too insidious!
Judging from Peter and the others' behavior, they genuinely believed that Riley couldn't be of much help and were desperately trying to stop Amora!
To deceive himself, he was willing to keep even his companions and his own brother in the dark?!
Are you sick in the head?!
Are you crazy?!
