The Final Battle

The sudden turn of events stunned everyone present.

Tony Stark and Stephen Strange, who were communicating in code, stopped their plotting. The Hulk was desperately trying to break free of his shackles, opened his eyes wide in surprise.

Loki's death was beyond everyone's imagination.

"... Loki?"

Thor's lips trembled, and ghostly blue flames flickered in his empty eye sockets. The bloodstains on his cheeks, carved by Loki with a dagger, bled a little more crimson blood due to his excitement.

He had assumed that his brother had betrayed the oath he had made and that he had become Darkseid's pawn.

But now, the stark reality is right in front of him.

"No..."

"No!!!"

Pain, regret, self-blame.

The relentless, overwhelming negative emotions instantly snapped the last thread of reason in Thor's mind.

My name is Loki, and I am Prince of Asgard.

My name is Loki, and I'm from Asgard...

My name is...

Loki's last words before his death kept echoing in Thor's ears, and the ghostly blue flames leaping in his empty eye sockets erupted completely under the stimulation of his blood!

Darkseid!!!!

Hysterical roars, signals of thunder and lightning.

The blood-stained body rose out of thin air, and Loki's phantom, formed from the condensation of ghostly blue flames, appeared and disappeared behind Thor. The severed arm and the lost eyeball were restored to their original state under the effect of the magic circle that Loki left on Thor's face!

Asgard Arcane Art: Life Transfer!

Boom!!!

Thunder rumbled beneath the dark sky, and Loki's body, lying on the ground, gradually lost its eyes under Darkseid's gaze.

It's as if it was dug out of thin air.

"So that's how it is. You'd rather give up your own life than not place your last hope on your brother?"

His massive, robust body stood unmoved amidst the raging lightning, a hint of admiration for Loki showing on his usually calm face.

"Pity..."

"It's all in vain."

Boom!

A terrifyingly vast energy field opened up in Darkseid's blink of an eye, and a darkness so profound it astonished everyone instantly swallowed all the nimble Flash.

Thor descended from the sky with overwhelming force and rage, but then embedded himself into the ground of Wakanda even faster than he had come.

Darkseid, personally deployed by Thor, was far beyond Thor's current capabilities to contend with.

If it weren't for needing these people as sacrifices to temporarily break the universe's restrictions on outsiders so that he could perfectly unleash the power of the Anti-Life Equation, Darkseid wouldn't have lingered on this tiny Earth for so long.

"Um?"

Amidst the dense fog, an ancient incantation suddenly rang out, causing Darkseid to frown.

A sharp spear, seemingly carrying a curse from hell, pierced through the mist and hurtled straight toward Darkseid's arm!

(Asgard proverb: Shoot him, Divine Spear.)

"I..."

"My name is Thor Odinson."

"Son of Odin!"

The six-pointed star magic circle that cleared away the fog appeared, and to Stephen Strange's astonished and stunned gaze, a towering figure stood out abruptly between heaven and earth!

Despite his incredibly aged face, he exuded an aura of domineering power that seemed to look down upon the world.

Odin, the former ruler of Asgard!

"Odinforce... how is that possible...?"

"Isn't Odin already dead?"

Steve Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme believed he had read the script, looked utterly bewildered.

Who tore up Thor's script?

No, that's not right. This isn't just about tearing up the script anymore. Who the hell rewrote the script about Thor?!

"Is this the power that has been hidden within you all this time?"

Darkseid watched Thor floating above the abyss with great interest, the dazzling Odinforce filling his newly grown eyes with a silvery-white light.

Mysterious runes surged, weaving a bright silver armor onto its body.

A very interesting ending—?!

Darkseid, who had intended to give it a try, suddenly changed his expression and shifted his body, barely avoiding an energy shockwave that shattered the ground!

Boom!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Boom boom boom boom boom!!!

The first strike missed, but it seemed to be just the beginning.

One after another, silver pillars of light shot into the sky from beneath the cracked earth, and the energy fluctuations they contained made Darkseid feel threatened in this universe for the first time.

A deadly threat!

The Vibranium altar was shattered to pieces under the intense bombardment, and the high-quality silver cross was also broken into pieces by the impact.

If Strange hadn't reacted quickly and used all his strength to form a hand seal, they would probably have perished in this indiscriminate attack.

"It's over."

"He's here."

After the bombing, the sight of several figures emerging from the teleportation beams brought a huge sigh of relief to Strange, who wore a smile of immense relief.

Although the script about Thor was changed, thankfully the script about Beckett was not.

"Celebrate!"

"The great Lord of the Dark Order, the strongest being in the world, the pioneer of a new era in the universe!"

"The Legendary Super Saiyan God, His Highness Beckett!"

"Descend!"

Holding the Mind Scepter, The Other loudly proclaimed the hymn to Beckett, while Mera, dressed in a magnificent queen's gown, stood behind Beckett, quietly admiring the white-haired, white-eyed figure whose every move exuded an aura of dominance over the entire audience.

"Beckett?"

"Beckett!"

"Beckett?!"

One after another, gasps of disbelief rang out, including from Thor, who had merged all his power into one, his face showing undisguised astonishment.

The loose-fitting, jet-black Battle Suit rustled in the fierce wind, and beneath his distinctive, flowing white hair was a cold, stern face brimming with murderous intent.

The red tail binding his waist was no longer there, and on his right arm, the golden Infinity Gauntlet shone with an extremely dazzling light, with six Infinity Stones.

"Has your strength increased again?"

Darkseid squinted, and for the first time, a serious expression appeared on his face.

As for Mera standing behind Beckett, she was no longer of any importance to him.

Anyway, Loki, who was up to no good behind the scenes, is already dead.

"Ready to die?"

Darkseid?

Strolling across the cracked ground, Beckett completely ignored Thor, who was blocking his way.

As for Thor, he rubbed his shoulder where he had been bumped and instinctively gave up his spot.

"You should ask yourself that question."

Ask it if it's ready.

Darkseid clenched his fists and adopted a fighting stance for the first time in front of people from another universe.

"The real battle has only just begun."

Snap!

Beckett, with a cold face, snapped his the Snap, instantly distorting the reality of the battlefield!

The altered reality was torn apart in the next second by Darkseid's violent energy!
