Chapter 174 Just Cooperation
There was a gleam in Hela's eyes, a sign that her divine power was about to explode.
Green and black spikes burst out from her hands, and divine power surged like the sea. Countless energy spikes clashed fiercely with the purple energy ball.
The dark green vines tightly bound the purple energy ball. Although the energy ball struggled violently, it was eventually swallowed by the dark green energy.
Just when Thanos breathed a sigh of relief, more vines emerged and completely wrapped the energy ball.
"boom!"
After a muffled sound, the energy ball was completely destroyed by the black and purple energy and turned into a giant snake that pounced on Thanos.
"what!"
The giant energy snake pushed Thanos into the sky and destroyed his space battleship.
"The Goddess of Death wins!"
Heimdall raised his lips slightly and conveyed the news to the people of Asgard.
"We won! We won!"
"Clean up the battlefield and completely eliminate these hateful invaders!"
"Fight back! Fight back! Drive the invaders out!"
The people of Asgard are like mad buffaloes, and his men who have lost the support of Thanos are no match for them.
"Heimdall, open the Rainbow Bridge. I'm going to hunt down the fugitive."
Hela walked up to Heimdall and spoke firmly.
"Goddess of Death, that intruder..."
When Heimdall looked for him again, he found that Thanos had disappeared without a trace.
"He escaped, but I can still locate him for now. He carries my power, and I need you to help me track him."
"No one can escape from me."
Hela's voice left no doubt.
"Goddess of Death, I'm afraid I can't obey your command."
Heimdall bowed and apologized.
"You want to disobey my orders? Just because of Odin's prejudice against me?"
There was a glimmer of cruelty in Hela’s eyes.
"No, you saved Asgard, look how the people admire you."
Heimdall pointed to the Asgardian subjects who had survived the disaster and whose eyes were full of hope.
Hela looked around at everyone.
"Goddess of Death!"
"Goddess of Death!"
Shouts rose one after another, and soon the whole Asgard was immersed in the worship of the goddess of death.
Feeling the enthusiasm and admiration of the crowd, Hela felt a surge of tenderness in her heart.
She looked at Heimdall and said in a pretentious tone, "I will pardon your death sentence this time, but you have to give me a suitable reason."
In such a good mood, she even differentiated into countless spikes to help the Asgardians eliminate the invaders.
"It's not that I don't want to help you, Goddess of Death."
Heimdall looked towards the Rainbow Bridge and said, "I have destroyed the Rainbow Bridge."
He then told Hela the whole story of the invasion in detail, and Hela listened attentively.
"Those two bastards can't even deal with this kind of enemy. They don't deserve to be called gods."
Hela said with disdain on her face.
"Goddess of Death, Asgard cannot be without a ruler for a day. We implore you to serve as the king of the gods."
Heimdall knelt on one knee, and then the people of Asgard knelt down in unison.
Although Hela was sealed by Odin, now that Odin is dead, she does not care about the position of the king of gods.
But Odin could not deny her this position.
"I accept."
A smile appeared on Hela's face and she stood on a high place so that everyone could see her.
"Issuing my first royal decree."
"Hunting down the invaders with all our strength and rectifying the internal affairs! I want to restore the glory of Asgard!"
"Heimdall, are the nine realms we once conquered still under the rule of Asgard? Why did they disappear without a trace when we were invaded?" Hela asked from the throne in the open-air temple.
"In the Nine Realms, we always respect their autonomy and do not interfere in their internal affairs unless they face a threat," Heimdall explained.
“What’s the point of the existence of these nine realms?” Hila asked unhappily, “Does the late king still hope to make up for his aggression through mercy? For these tribes, only powerful force can make them always fear us and obey us.”
"Many rare and precious objects from the Nine Realms are used in this temple," Heimdall reminded.
"Now that we have a grudge against them, it would be a fallacy to play the role of a good guy." Hela asserted, "They did not participate in this battle. That was the decision of the previous king of the gods. The invaders did not massacre our people on a large scale." Heimdall explained carefully.
"It's so stupid. He's still the same as always, always trying to achieve some goals through self-sacrifice."
Hela sneered, but her face showed a hint of loneliness.
“Groups like the Frost Giants and Dark Elves must be firmly under our control.”
Hela ordered in an unquestionable tone, "Pass the order, my glory will shine on every corner of them. When the new king ascends the throne, he will surely implement a new system. Under the leadership of Asgard, I will expand the territory and create glory."
“I will use my glorious achievements to tell my late father how ridiculous his decision to seal me was.” Hela continued.
"However, we have enjoyed many years of peace, and the policies of our predecessor have made our country prosperous."
The Chancellor of Finance made a tentative suggestion, “Perhaps, we could consider increasing their tribute?” He carefully observed Hela’s reaction.
"I remember that you were also an old minister of the previous king." Hela glanced at him and said, "You are old, Heimdall. Select talents from the young and promising new gods to replace him." "Your Majesty, Asgard has always been peace-loving. Please think twice." The Minister of Finance's face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly knelt down to advise.
“Noisy.” Hela scratched her ears impatiently. “Heimdall, drive these irrelevant people out.”
"Yes, sir." Heimdall immediately ordered his men to expel the Chancellor of Finance.
“I am not here to listen to your opinions, but to declare my will to rule.” Hela declared to everyone, “From now on, all royal families must send their children to join the Asgard army and fight for Asgard.”
"The territory ruled by Asgard needs to unite." With the promulgation of King Hela's order, the Nine Realms were shocked, and the nine royal families all received this message.
Although the Rainbow Bridge is currently unavailable, the transmission of information has not been hindered.
"This is simply too much! The Asgardians actually want to enslave our tribe and even want our royal family to become their low-level warriors!" A royal leader from the Nine Realms shouted angrily.
"The Frost Giants will never be slaves! They have taken away our Ice Boxes. Our development has stagnated and we can no longer pose a threat to them." Another Frost Giant leader said, "Now they are asking us to become their warriors. This is simply slavery!"
"This cannot be tolerated! While the Asgardians are unable to cross the Rainbow Bridge to come to us, I plan to head to Blue Star. A powerful aura seems to have emerged there recently."
The frost giants among the royal family of Jotunheim near the Blue Star have already begun to think about breaking away from the rule of Asgard.
"Are they going to massacre the dark elves?" A dark elf survivor asked in horror, "The new king wants to restart the war after ascending the throne. The peace in the universe is hard-won! She is willing to start a war just to satisfy her ambitions."
"It seems that I have to get in touch with the gods of China. From what I have observed, the gods of China still yearn for peace. I hope to join forces with them to fight against this cruel monarch." The surviving princess of the dark elves sighed.
"War is coming! There's a new ruler in Asgard, and it's not Thor!"
This news caused widespread discussion in the Nine Realms. "She issued a royal decree with the intention of provoking a war."
People are filled with worry and anxiety about the impending changes.
The long period of peaceful life has made many people forget the years of war.
"It's the goddess of death! That is a piece of history that has been forgotten."
A surviving ancient creature from the Nine Realms recalled, "The era when the goddess of death and Odin shared glory together was the most glorious period for Asgard."
"Odin started the war to prove his strength, but later he repented and treated us with kindness. However, the goddess of death did not agree with this approach."
"That was a world-shaking war! At his peak, Odin was invincible. Even the goddess of death could not stand up to him."
"Odin eventually defeated the goddess of death and sealed her away in an unknown place."
"Now her return heralds the beginning of war, and her hatred will burn the entire universe!"
On Earth, Asgard's message was also conveyed to Loki and Thor.
The two of them then went to look for Lin Feng.
"Professor Lin Feng, Hela has occupied Asgard and successfully defeated Thanos, but unfortunately Thanos escaped." Loki said to Lin Feng with a look of worry on his face.
Loki had already revealed to Lin Feng about Hela's situation.
"That sounds like good news, doesn't it?" Lin Feng responded without turning his head, holding the River Map and Luo Shu in his hand.
"She has now been elected as the new King of the Gods by the people of Asgard, and has begun to implement a series of new decrees." Thor said somewhat anxiously.
"It seems that you are not happy about losing the throne?"
Lin Feng stood up, closed the book, and looked across the world map, as if he was planning something.
"Hela intends to conquer the Nine Realms, but the Nine Realms will certainly not easily submit to her rule. Her ambitions are far more than just the Nine Realms."
Loki finished his words firmly, slamming the table, "This matter concerns the safety of Bluestar. She has already set her sights on Bluestar."
"She ordered the two of us to retrieve the Cosmic Cube and the Mind Stone from Earth, and asked us to rule the Earth and prepare for her coming," Thor added.
"I know you won't do that." Lin Feng turned his head and smiled, "Right?"
"Of course not." Thor responded immediately, "We are friends, and Asgardians love peace."
"We are now facing a god who is more powerful than the one who killed my father." Loki's voice was low and serious. "Her power is still growing. I hope you can inform the gods of China and let them take this matter seriously."
Loki didn't want to be ruled and ordered around by that strange sister.
He has the blood of the Frost Giants flowing in his body. If Hela considers him unclean and destroys him in one fell swoop, the consequences will be disastrous.
"I understand. I will tell Yang Jian and the others. Since you are here, I have something to ask you." As he said that, Lin Feng began to write on the paper.
After a while, he handed two folded pieces of paper to Thor. "There are 365 points on it. Please give it to Thor. I need him to personally design and supervise the construction."
"These must be accurate and there cannot be any mistakes." Lin Feng's expression was extremely serious. "This is a barrier to protect the earth."
Loki looked at Lin Feng, and Lin Feng gently patted his shoulder. "Don't worry, no one can go wild on Blue Star."
In the bizarre dark dimension, an uninvited guest suddenly broke in and awakened Dormammu.
"It's you? You have already occupied Asgard. You shouldn't come back to this place." Dormammu said, looking at the dangerous woman in front of him.
"You've been to Blue Planet, and I'm going to occupy it now. Heimdall told me that the gods of China are very powerful, and you reminded me of that." Hela stared at the huge Dormammu and asked, "My power will weaken after I leave Asgard. I want to know if my current power can defeat the gods of China."
"No." Dormammu answered bluntly.
Its huge face circled around Hela, and Hela said unhappily, “Don’t hang around behind me. I can’t help but attack you.”
"You can't kill me." Dormammu said nonchalantly.
“Your power has surpassed Odin’s at his peak, but it’s still not strong enough. The gods of China have a world similar to mine, just like me.” It did not conceal the information about the demon emperor Jun, but instead gave Hela some advice, “You can also use other powers.”
"We are intelligent creatures. You must know that some powers are far beyond our own abilities." Dormammu continued to seduce.
“What power?” Hela asked coldly.
"Five Infinity Stones." Dormammu twisted his huge body and said, "As long as you collect six Infinity Stones and use them at the same time, you will have invincible power."
"At that time, you will only need to snap your fingers to destroy more than 99% of life in the universe." Dormammu's voice was full of temptation.
“God does not need to rely on those external things.” Hela said proudly.
"Stop deceiving yourselves. You call yourselves gods, but in fact you are just powerful humans. True gods will not fall into sleep because of their lifespan." Dormammu laughed, and the whole space was filled with brilliant color changes.
"Your father was killed because of old age. Can't you see your limitations? Although you are powerful, your lifespan is too short compared to that of true gods." Dormammu said with his face close to Hela.
A sharp spike suddenly appeared in Hela's hand.
