Friends Are for Selling Out / The Shameless Womanizing Pervert
The list alone nearly caused a collective climax among those groups eager to advance the progress of civilization.
Witnessing the reshaping of the celestial environment by the Hongmeng Purple Qi, they were overwhelmed with excitement.
However, Kevin was clearly not stupid; to obtain these technologies, he had to pay an equal price.
Even if the technology isn't advanced, surely resources and manpower will suffice?
If that's not available either, that's fine too.
The empire is benevolent; any civilized group or individual with ideas can serve the empire, earning merit points that can be used to exchange for desired items.
In addition, the Empire regularly issues exploration and pursuit missions to meet the needs of different groups in earning merit points.
Furthermore, outstanding contributions made by certain individuals, or inventions that benefit a broad range of civilizations, can be rated and awarded corresponding honors.
In short, someone has considered various ways to exploit and incite vassal races, enough to make them willingly offer up their underwear.
After all, joining the empire's system is easy, but breaking away is not so simple.
To be frank, these were all cannon fodder he had reserved for the Void Cataclysm. Out of consideration for protecting his own interests and minimizing losses to friendly civilizations, Kevin treated them with considerable care.
The crowd below the stage erupted in fervor, fantasizing and dreaming of a bright future.
The meat and bones thrown out undoubtedly fueled their desires and ambitions.
So it's time to put them on a leash; these still-excited stray dogs need to know who their masters are.
The man pursed his thin, handsome lips, flicked his fingers, and with a pleasing sound, silenced the entire hall. He then sat down cautiously.
"Secondly, in order to maintain the healthy development of known civilizations, we will establish a [Life Court]."
"Life is always precious, especially during crucial moments when one is peering into the void."
"In order to protect the rights of the majority of life, the Empire will try and hunt down those who pose a significant threat to the Divine River Civilization, and will prevent unjustified massacres and genocide."
"Thirdly, for matters between different civilizations that require mediation and negotiation, arbitration can be sought from the [Imperial Tribunal]."
"Any unauthorized planetary-level war will be considered a provocation against the Empire, and any act of defiance will be annihilated!"
The vassal race, who had been fantasizing about overthrowing the angelic tyranny and taking its place, was immediately doused with cold water, and then remembered who was the true ruler of the Known Universe.
Furthermore, the Angel King immediately announced that the Lieyang Clan, Titan Race, Angels, Earth, Asgardian God Clan, Pangu Clan would jointly form the [Imperial Tribunal] and the [Life Court].
Only then did the marginalized races come to realize the reality that the so-called peaceful development was simply a game dominated by the strong and obeyed by the weak.
The only two Triangle Body that wanted to object immediately became complacent and became lazy after receiving news that the Banbolan defense line had been breached.
Next, the signing of agreements proceeded quite smoothly, and even the Empire's desire to send "observers" to different civilizations was unanimously agreed upon.
In this way, the Illuminati controls the export of technology, economy, and culture; the Life Court maintains necessary stability and order; and the Tribunal is responsible for law enforcement and coordination.
With the six superior civilizations advancing and retreating as one, sharing both glory and disgrace, then this "empire" truly becomes more than just a title.
Clearly, Kevin is strengthening the Angel Empire's control, uniting these loosely organized civilizations and races to create War Machine against the Void's arrival.
This was his true purpose in convening the [Divine Power Conference].
Chapter 1118, Section 1165: Friends Are for Selling
With participants fully exchanging opinions and engaging in friendly consultations, the [Divine Power Conference] concluded successfully in a harmonious atmosphere.
The meeting had just ended, and Morgana, with her posture upright, eyes glazed over, and yawning incessantly, looked like a student who had just heard the school bell ring.
She straightened up instantly and, full of energy, darted towards the palace courtyard.
As soon as the Demon Queen sat down, she skillfully used Wormhole Technology to take out tea sets and fruit plates from the storage room, and leaned back in the wicker chair, enjoying the warm and gentle afternoon sunlight.
During her pleasant nap, Morgana would occasionally glance around the corner of the corridor.
However, just as the Demon Queen was growing impatient, a figure finally arrived.
Hexi leaned back lazily in her private chair, slowly picked up her black tea, and sipped it by herself.
As the crimson tea was poured from the crystal teapot into the cup, a rich aroma filled the air. The Heavenly Foundation King glanced at Morgana, who was sitting next to him, craning her neck to look outside, before whispering softly.
"Don't wait anymore, he has other things to do and probably won't be free for a while..."
Holy crap, this guy's getting bolder and bolder, he's really grown up and started standing up your Queen again!
Morgana turned her swan-like neck in frustration, picked up her teacup and drank it all in one gulp, grinding her teeth as she silently grumbled to herself.
Hexi narrowed her eyes slightly, and a strange smile spread across her lips.
"Aren't you very unhappy?"
"Want to do something fun?"
The Demon Queen propped her chin up and leaned closer, a glint of light flashing in her eyes.
"Hehe, tell me about it..."
"To gain a deep understanding of a person, starting with their living environment is a very effective way."
"You mean... go visit his hometown?"
"Hmm, maybe there's an unexpected surprise waiting for us..."
"Us? You want to come with us?"
"It's been so many years, I really miss the days when we'd leave our work to Keisha and skip work to go to other planets to relax."
"That's right, Kunsa Star is being rebuilt, and I, Your Queen, also need to take a vacation."
"Then let's..."
"Let's go!"
The two king-level angels immediately high-fived and reached a consensus, then happily began planning their route and itinerary to Earth.
However, to avoid major conflicts and ensure secrecy, Morgana agreed without hesitation to Hexi's proposal to "descend to Earth in an avatar".
Meanwhile, the corners of the mouth of the instigator stretched into an even wider grin.
When you're bored, you should find something to have fun with, like watching a dramatic show of seemingly best friends fighting.
In particular, Hexi was very curious about how this Demon Queen would react once she found out that the thing she regarded as her own possession had an affair with her mortal enemy sister.
Just then, someone who was strolling along a gravel path suddenly felt an itch on their nose and sneezed loudly.
Strange, why do I have this bad feeling? Who is talking about me behind my back again? The man muttered to himself.
However, when he noticed that the figure standing by the roadside waiting for him had been staring at him for quite some time, he composed himself, smiled, and steered the conversation back to the topic.
"By the way, where were we? Hela..."
"In the battle of the Asgardian Realm, I crushed Thor's hammer, gouged out his eyes, and hung him upside down from the Ruins of the World Tree."
"As for the remaining little cutie, I stuffed her into the dried-up spring of Well of Mimir..."
The Goddess of Death casually recounted the outcome of the battle in the Asgard Palace, her fingertips touching the irises beside her, gently twisting them, instantly causing these beautiful plants to wither and die.
"Ahem, is this really necessary?"
Kevin coughed violently, a bitter smile of sympathy for Thor and Loki appearing on his face.
"They're your friends. You don't want to kill me for treating Thor and Loki like this?"
Seeing that the man in front of her didn't react too strongly except for a helpless expression, Hela smiled with narrowed eyes and couldn't help but lean forward to ask a question in a low voice.
Under the intriguing gaze of the Goddess of Death, the man pondered silently and responded with utmost seriousness.
"They are friends, but you are the Queen I personally crowned..."
"Besides, friends are meant to be sold."
At that moment, a strange smile spread across Hela's face, and she lowered her head to kiss Kevin's forehead.
"So, this is the reward the Queen bestows upon you, my warrior..."
By the time Kevin came to his senses, the Goddess of Death had already turned and walked away cleanly. The man glanced meaningfully at the withered iris, chuckled, shook his head, and started to follow.
As the two figures gradually disappeared at the end of the road, the withered plant sprouted new shoots and flowers bloomed even more beautifully.
Kevin probably understands Hela's intentions in Hela defeating Thor and Loki better than anyone else.
Hela did this in the most direct and brutal way possible to accelerate the fusion of Odin's power and the remaining spiritual essence of the Asgardian Realm within her two good-for-nothing brothers.
Kevin's reasons for reaching this conclusion are quite compelling.
First of all, the entire Norse Mythology system actually revolves around "sacrifice" and "fate".
You can gain something in return for sacrificing something.
Therefore, the Thor who was killed by his father and his entire family in Kevin's memory was strong enough to go toe- Thanos with Thanos, who possessed the Infinity Stones, and chop off the head of this top-tier god-king.
However, Thor in this era experienced far fewer hardships than the Thor in his memories, which naturally greatly limited his growth.
Now that Hela has let go of her hatred and prejudice, she naturally won't harm Thor's family or the people of Asgard.
Therefore, the only one left for Thor to sacrifice is himself.
Only by pushing torment and Affliction to their limits can this Thor become even more powerful, surpassing even Odin, the Allfather.
Thor's Hammer is both the key to channeling the power of Odin within Thor and the shackles that suppress his own authority.
Hela broke it down to give him more possibilities.
As for Thor's blinding and nailing to the remains of the World Tree, and Loki's tragic fate of being stuffed into the Well of Mimir, these are even more intriguing.
According to legend, Odin, in his quest for greater wisdom, first exchanged one of his eyes for the waters of the Well of Wisdom.
Then, he hung himself upside down, letting the Main God's Spear Gungnir pierce his body, nailing his body to a tree, nourishing the plant with his blood, and contemplating the mysteries of the universe.
Ultimately, Odin endured nine days and nine nights of torment, completely conquering the World Tree, which represented the World Will, and fully comprehending the runes on the 25 Destiny Tablet.
Even more coincidentally, the true name of the [Fountain of Wisdom] is [Mimi], which is the same spring that Loki plugged.
So, from the very beginning, Hela's goal was to give her two younger brothers a proper lesson.
Of course, this love from an older sister can sometimes be too heavy, making it difficult to bear.
As for why Loki suffered this fate, well, he was just an afterthought after Kevin tricked him.
The man pictured the twisted, bitter face of a certain god of mischief, and a smug smile crept across his lips.
Chapter 1119, Section 1166: The Justified Female Pervert
On the tree-lined path covered with layers of fallen leaves, dappled golden sunlight fell on Hela's shoulders, giving the goddess a touch of holiness.
Along the way, Kevin's remaining conscience finally began to stir slightly, and he couldn't help but step forward to ask the Goddess of Death for advice.
"Um, I have a question. What if Thor doesn't make it through?"
"Then we won't survive! Asgard has no need for cowards..."
Hela paused slightly, put her hands on her hips, turned around, and answered casually.
Kevin paused, then sighed softly.
"Aren't you being a little too hasty?"
"If he wants to be king, he must demonstrate equal strength, but right now he can't even defeat me. It seems that a life of comfort has really softened his bones."
Hela retorted coldly, her words dripping with sarcasm.
"What, do you expect another Odin to sacrifice himself for him next time?"
Although, subjectively speaking, this Goddess of Death was indeed the culprit who killed the father of the gods.
However, during the Infinity War, even the combined efforts of the Asgardian gods could not withstand the control of Hela, indirectly leading to Odin's death, which is an indisputable fact.
The Aesir gods were already bound by a sorrowful curse, woven from the threads of fate.
Hela, who also inherited some of the precognitive abilities, was even more aware of a cruel truth—the shackles of Ragnarok had not completely disappeared.
The coincidence of last time cannot be repeated in future catastrophes, because there is no other Odin for Thor to sacrifice.
To truly protect the land and its people, this Thor must become truly powerful.
At this moment, Kevin stepped forward and gently pressed Hela's shoulder, his eyes revealing a hint of reproach and worry.
