Whoever Is Unworthy May Wield This Hammer

Thump!!!

Thor's body was kicked away by Gamora, crashing into a stone pillar before he collapsed to his knees.

"So powerful... and that sword, it's no ordinary weapon."

He watched Gamora slowly approach him, a bead of cold sweat trickling down his forehead.

Even if one Energy of the Universe enhanced, Thor, now stripped of his divine powers, would still be no match for his opponent. At this moment, he desperately missed Mjolnir and the days when he was still the God of Thor.

Gamora watched him, the greatsword dragging on the ground, easily carving a deep groove into the rock. It wasn't just sharp; Thor could see that the greatsword was imbued with magical power, making it even more indestructible.

"I told you, I don't want to go against the Galactic Plumbers. Leave now, and I won't kill you."

"I'm not running away!"

"This isn't just about the mission of the Galactic Plumbers," Thor said, panting. "It's about his honor as a warrior. I could forgive him for using those despicable methods against the enemy, but if I were to run away with my tail between my legs, I would never have the face to see Mjolnir again."

"Azmuth, I need a hammer," Thor muttered to himself.

He was actually talking to the artificial intelligence inside the suit.

Since Eunice gained a real body, she no longer lives in the electronic world all the time. So Ben created an artificial intelligence based on Eunice's upgraded program, which can serve a huge number of Plumbers.

Its name is Azmuth. In a sense, the artificial intelligence Azmuth is a product of Eunice, which can be said to be Heavenly Reversal.

Upon receiving Thor's command, the artificial intelligence immediately separated a part of his suit and rearranged its structure using Nanotechnology, forming a small hammer in Thor's hand that looked exactly like Mjolnir.

"What use could this thing possibly be?"

Gamora said dismissively.

Another agent just created a shield using the same method, but its hardness was nothing compared to her greatsword, and it was easily sliced through.

Not to mention this little hammer in front of me.

"It is the best weapon."

Thor gripped the hammer handle, raised it to his eyes, pressed his cheek against the hammer, and muttered to himself in a self-absorbed manner, "Anyone who is disqualified can lift this hammer and gain the power of Thor!"

He missed Mjolnir terribly, but Thor craved more than Mjolnir —qualification.

But he had neither the qualifications nor the divine power, so he could only indulge in this kind of pleasure.

However, in reality, whether or not he was qualified to lift the Hammer of Thor was not the reason he lost his divine power. Odin imbued the Hammer of Thor with the power of Thor, but that did not mean that Thor's own divine power disappeared.

It was his own inner doubts that prevented him from unleashing his full potential.

The evidence is this: the moment Thor activated the Alpha Rune, filling his body with celestial Energy of the Universe, Legerdomain received a tremendous reward because of his potential.

At this moment, in the Manna Dimension, Legerdomain.

Ben, the Ancient One, and Odin stood together on a floating rock, marveling at the ever-changing world.

Because he had sensed that life was about to be born, Ben put aside his other work and came here, while the Ancient One had already handed over the trivial matters of the Sanctum Sanctorum to her disciple Baron Mordo.

Speaking of which, Baron Mordo, who originally chose to side with Dormammu because he realized that the Ancient One had absorbed the power of the Dark Dimension, has now abandoned that foolish plan.

With the Energy of the Universe, who needs your dark energy?

It can be said that Baron Mordo, and even all the sorcerers of the Sanctum Sanctorum, now regard the Ancient One as the revered Sorcerer Supreme, and Ben, the master of the Energy of the Universe, as a god of their faith!

As for Dormammu, Baron Mordo really wanted to tell him, "Please stop calling. I'm afraid Ben will misunderstand!"

Odin arrived in Asgard after faking his death. After putting on a show, he immediately withdrew from the Old Celestial Palace, leaving it as a battlefield for Malekith and Hela.

In retrospect, Malekith was quite clever; instead of wasting time fighting Hela, he stole the energy of the Bifrost, trapping Hela in Asgard.

However, Hela wouldn't let herself get away with this. Odin figured his daughter would definitely try to leave Asgard and go after Malekith to get revenge.

He guessed correctly.

"It seems Thor has activated the Energy of the Universe, and the first naturally born Energy of the Universe creature is about to appear." Ben looked at the embryo growing in the pink deep space, which was clearly ready to hatch.

I wonder what Thor encountered. Just to retrieve an Infinity Stones, he needs to use Energy of the Universe?

The Ancient One and Odin immediately used their abilities to protect the first Energy of the Universe being with magic.

"It will form a new race, but the first Energy of the Universe Being needs to be a part of you," the Ancient One said.

She was reminding Ben not to forget about becoming the Dimensional Ruler.

Ben, of course, hadn't forgotten. He turned his watch, and a yellow light flashed. "Activate Capture Mode. Target: Anodite."

This time, the watch's target isn't just a few genes, but the entire Energy of the Universe biosphere!

[Target captured, capture successful, Energy of the Universe Bio- Anodite have been loaded]

In an instant, the newly born life was captured by the watch and disappeared. However, it could be seen that countless embryos of Energy of the Universe beings were developing in the pink Nebula of deep space, clearly showing the potential to become a species.

However, compared to the first embryo, they are not so perfect, and their meanings are not the same.

That was the beginning.

"Then, transform!"

After gently tapping the surface, a flash of green light appeared, Ben's body had completely transformed into a pinkish-white energy body. The radiant body contained incredibly powerful energy, though not of a particularly high level.

Because at this moment, he was merely Anodite with optimized genes, not yet Dimensional Ruler.

"Next, we will condense the essence of the entire Manna Dimension onto your body." Odin's single eye gleamed with divine power, and mysterious runes floated in his gaze.

This is the power of runes, a power he obtained from the Yggdrasil, far beyond what ordinary knowledge could comprehend.

Once this power is unleashed, it will be enough to make him Rune King Odin, reaching Multiverse- level of strength.

The Ancient One was also taking action at the same time. She was the person most familiar with the power of dimensions and one of the first to experience the Energy of the Universe. It could be said that the Ancient One was even more proactive and dedicated than Ben in developing the Energy of the Universe.

As the progenitor of the Energy of the Universe, Ben naturally found it easy to handle.

The three people simultaneously used Energy of the Universe energy.

"Pass on the source of the Energy of the Universe," the Ancient One said immediately.

The Ben nodded.

What he needs to do now is to bear the imprint of the Manna Dimension and elevate the life form of the Anodite through the dimension itself.

This wasn't the first time he'd done something like this.

At first, he was the Four Arms, but that was completely unconscious. He did not expect that Sakaar would recognize him as an outsider and pass on the most ancient power of the planet to him. He became one with the planet invisibly and connected with the Old Power, becoming the incarnation of the Sakaar Lightning.

The second time, he actively obtained the Eternal Flame from Odin.

The life level of the Heatblast who absorbed the Eternal Flame was instantly greatly enhanced, transforming him from a cosmic life form into an incomparably powerful being. It could even be said that the source of this power was enough for him to become the ruler of the Flame World.

"Now, I will become the ruler of Energy of the Universe!"

--

"Now, I am the King of Muspelheim, the ruler of the world of fire!"

Vilgax's towering figure stood atop a black lava hill, his right hand holding a black head aloft. Beneath his skin, the power of flames surged and erupted, even his blood seemed to have turned into crimson magma!

If you look closely, you'll see that Vilgax isn't actually standing on a hill, but on a throne made up of the corpses of Fire Demon and fire monsters.

Looking around, the entire Muspelheim seemed to have become a dead zone.

It resembles scorched earth after lava has flowed and cooled.

Psyphon rubbed his hands together like a fly, looking at Vilgax with a fawning expression and his eyes shining.

"Vilgax, not just Muspelheim, I believe you can crush that fool Malekith under your feet and become the conqueror of ten worlds! Then, with boundless power, you will conquer the Galactic Plumbers, obtain the Omintrix, and unleash a massive war to conquer the entire universe!"

He said it sincerely.

Hearing his words, Vilgax couldn't help but show a satisfied expression.

At that moment, a discordant voice rang out. "Psyphon! How dare you betray Lord Malekith?!"

Psyphon and Vilgax turned their heads at the same time and saw a Cursed Warrior lying on the ground not far away, his body already broken and his limbs pierced by weapons. Beside him, there was a woman and a dragon lying there.

Seeing that Vilgax and Psyphon were looking at her, the woman's face instantly showed fear, and she knelt down, begging for mercy, "Lord Vilgax, I am willing to submit..."

The fire dragon let out a mournful cry.

That woman was the daughter of the original King of Muspelheim, that is, the daughter of Surtur.

However, Surtur is now nothing more than the embers of a defeated man, his power drained by that terrible flower branch.

Sindr has no intention of avenging her father now, because the power that Vilgax has displayed is too terrifying.

"Lord Vilgax, should we absorb their power as well?" Psyphon asked.

Anyway, the Cursed Warrior is doomed. The enemy already knows Vilgax's secret and won't let him go back to Malekith alive. As for Sindr, as Surtur's daughter, she is quite powerful and has the ability to command Fire Demon and monsters in Muspelheim.

"Keep that woman," Vilgax said casually.

He didn't intend to do anything to Sindr, but now was not the time to turn against Malekith. Psyphon still needed to give Malekith an explanation. Sindr would temporarily work with Psyphon to help Malekith under the pretext of Muspelheim's submission.

As for the Cursed Warrior and the Fire Dragon--

"I think a friend of mine would like their power, right, Khyber?" Vilgax glanced at him, and then a familiar Ben figure emerged from the shadows.

It was a tall warrior, covered in a skeleton serving as breastplate and shoulder armor. Judging from the shape of the shoulder armor, it was clearly a ferocious beast with sharp horns.

This is a formidable enemy. In the world of Ben 10, Khyber is a bounty hunter who enjoys collecting specimens of his prey, and he is also Ben Tennyson's enemy.

"I just happen to need a dog."

He spoke calmly, his gaze fixed on the fire dragon.

When he came into this world, his hunting dog did not come with him. A good hunter cannot do without a hunting dog.

"You need more than just a dog; you need even greater strength."

With just a few words, Vilgax found a new home for the Cursed Warrior's power.

In his view, Khyber was very capable.

The opponent was already highly skilled, but that skill was insufficient in this universe. Fortunately, the Cursed Warrior was here, which filled that gap for him.

As for the fire dragon, Vilgax didn't even consider it a threat, even though the dragon's name was Jormungandr.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll turn against you once I gain power?" Khyber retorted. "Don't forget, I'm not submitting to you; we're just employers."

"I don't care."

Vilgax can defeat even Cursed Warrior, so why would he care about someone who has obtained the power of Cursed Warrior?

not to mention...

"Chimera Sui Generis aren't exactly rare. This new universe has so many things you can use as new specimens, and I can help you hunt them down," Vilgax said.

"Of course, you have to get the Omintrix for me first."

Khyber naturally had no objection to this.

He was a bounty hunter, and Vilgax had already paid him enough.

"Let's begin."

His cheek-like organs opened and closed, emitting invisible sound waves. Compared to obtaining the power of the Cursed Warrior, he was more eager to train the fire dragon.

--

The sealed place of the Aether Particle.

Thor collapsed to the ground, completely incapacitated.

Even after activating his Energy of the Universe, the amount of Energy of the Universe he could unleash before merging with his divine power was still very weak.

His rival Gamora was trained by Thanos to be a top assassin when she was a teenager. Although Thanos's Soul Stone continues to haunt her, it also gives her power.

Not to mention, she already possessed a gem.

As for Coulson, he had already been knocked unconscious.

"I told you long ago, you can't stop me. The Reality Stone belongs to me." Gamora walked directly to the unconscious Thor, bent down and took out Thor's Mimic Tesseract. Using the spell Thanos had told her in her mind, Aether Particle and finally solidified them into a blood-red Infinity Stone.

"You should kill them, my dear daughter."

Thanos said.

"It was the same back then. You shouldn't have let that Red Skull live; it only brought you trouble."

"Shut up!"

Gamora turned and left.
