At this moment, Heimdall was still watching the Earth.

After Loki shouted, the Bifrost appeared instantly, accurately capturing Loki and Thor amidst hundreds of phantoms, and then pulling them back to Asgard.

Just as the brothers breathed a sigh of relief, Hela suddenly tore through the membrane of the rainbow tunnel and appeared inside it.

Before the two brothers could react, a black sword pierced through Loki's body, sending him crashing heavily against the inner wall of the Rainbow Passage.

The next moment, Thor followed in his brother's footsteps, but his body was stronger, so he was impaled by several swords and also fell against the inner wall of the Rainbow Passage.

Suddenly, the rainbow tunnel vanished, and the two brothers, who had been lying on the inner wall, fell out, landing somewhere in the Universe.

Even Hela was almost thrown off, but fortunately, she used her divine power to grab onto the last bit of rainbow light and managed to jump to Asgard.

Hahahaha----

Hela stood up, with one longsword after another appearing in her hands.

She smiled at Heimdall and said, "Your reaction time has slowed down, Heimdall."

"I remember you used to react instantly, and you would turn the Bifrost into a planet-destroying cannon to blast all the stowaways to smithereens. Why were you so slow this time?"

"And you'd rather disband the Bifrost than launch an attack—have you become soft-hearted?"

"No, he's not being soft-hearted," Shazo stepped out from behind Heimdall and explained for him, "It's because bombarding my territory would be more harmful to Asgard."

"A human from Midgard— " Hela recognized Shazo's identity. "A mere mortal dares to interfere in the conflicts of the Asgard, and with such arrogance at that? You want to die—"

Boom!

Hela's sword fell to the ground, and she herself was sent flying by Shazo's punch, passing through the thick wall of the Bifrost and falling to the land of Asgard.

Shazo glanced back at Heimdall and reminded him, "You should know that Hela and Asgard are two sides of the same coin."

"My battle with Hela, no matter how it goes, will inevitably be a catastrophe. You should organize the Asgardians to evacuate as soon as possible."

Suddenly, Shazo laughed, "I don't think you'll listen to my advice."

"After all, although Asgard has been powerful for over 4,000 years, it has not experienced nearly enough upheavals. The prosperous and stable life has destroyed your will and caution."

"Heimdall, look into your eyes, they're full of defiance."

"So what I just said was just a suggestion, not an order, and I have no right to order you gods around. Do whatever you want."

"Anyway, I'm not Odin, so I don't need to be responsible for you."

After saying that, Shazo jumped off the Bifrost and chased after the direction Hela had fallen.

Unsurprisingly, after a few minutes' delay, Hela had already disappeared.

Shazo was not in a hurry. Instead, he calmly returned to the Bifrost, sat in the empty room, looked towards the Lookout of Asgard, and waited for the Civil War in Asgard to break out.

There's only one possibility for Hela's disappearance: she felt that seizing the Royal Palace and waking up her Pets Fenrir and the Legion of the Dead was more important than being punched by a Midgardian.

Shazo wasn't in a hurry because he knew Asgard wouldn't fall into his hands on its own.

Despite Odin's command, he was ultimately a dead former god-king, not a living one.

Heimdall, as the sole witness, unsurprisingly chose to conceal the Ogon's orders and instead mobilized the Asgard army to expel Grand Princess Hela.

Yes, after Odin's death, Hela automatically became the Grand Princess without needing a coronation ceremony.

Shazo was able to thwart his plan by demonstrating force, forcing Shazo to abandon his ambition to conquer Asgard and maintain the status quo while waiting for Thor to become the new king.

The people of Asgard were not easily defeated. Upon hearing that an unknown god was attacking them, they quickly rallied, took up arms, and launched their Airship to defend their country.

Hela paid no attention to this, activated her antler armor, held the sword in both hands, and gracefully walked towards the Royal Palace.

As a war goddess who has traversed the Nine Realms and single-handedly Carnage an entire Valkyrie Corps, Hela uses the Odinforce through the Unlimited Blade Works technique, conjuring longswords that then fly into the bodies of Asgardians.

Longswords, axes, spears, shields—no weapon or equipment could stop Hela's longsword.

Even the Airship, riddled with thorns by the longswords, plummeted to the ground amidst billowing smoke, creating violent explosions upon impact. As time passed, a thick layer of Asgardians corpses accumulated on the ground. Hela, smelling the blood-soaked air, gradually rediscovered the feeling she had before being sealed away, and her combat power steadily increased.

Gradually, the swords of Odinforce no longer flew out one by one, but rained down like a storm, felling the Asgardians legion piece by piece.

The Warriors Three charged ahead bravely, but they forgot that they had always followed Prince Thor in battle; the victory was not their contribution, but Thor's.

When the enemy is Hela, who is physically opposed by Thor, courage becomes almost reckless.

In the very first wave, the Asgard trio of warriors, along with Volstagg, Fandral, and Hogun, were all skewered and killed beyond any hope of survival.

Thor's fiancée, Goddess Sif, bravely charged forward, and after two rounds of direct combat with Hela, she was defeated.

Fortunately, although she was pierced through the body by a long sword, she survived.

The other Asgardians were neither as powerful nor as lucky as her, and all perished in the battle against Hela.

Balder, the god of light; Hoder, the god of darkness; Bragi, the god of poetry; Vali, the god of vengeance—four true Asgardians —were easily killed by Hela, as if she were crushing a few Bug.

Hela laughed loudly, then roared, "How could Asgard have fallen to such a state?"

"Heimdall, the Guardian God, tell me! How can Asgard have so many weak and useless Gods?"

"Heimdall, come out here! I'm going to kill you!"

Having experienced the power of the Death Goddess firsthand, the Asgard legions took the battle seriously, fighting as if they were facing a powerful nation.

As it turns out, Hela was not invincible.

After the Asgard army took things seriously, she was wounded more than once by the Asgard warriors in the battle, her body covered in wounds, and her blood stained her red.

The Airship force even concentrated its firepower, and a single salvo caused Hela to explode on the spot, leaving no trace of her body.

But Asgard will not perish, Hela will not die.

Hela, was resurrected from the ashes. Not only were all her injuries healed, but her power was also greatly enhanced, making her even stronger.

Her resurrection gave Hela boundless confidence, and the carnage helped her regain her best fighting form. She summoned more swords and launched a counter-charge against the Asgard army.

The Civil War in Asgard is intensifying, showing no signs of abating, and it seems likely that the fighting will continue for days and nights.

So, Shazo used the power of the Bifrost to pull Abomination, Norman Osborn, and Skye from Earth to Asgard, so they could all witness this war in the Asgard and broaden their horizons.

Gillian and Maya Hansen also wanted to come, but unfortunately, their physical abilities were only those of ordinary humans, and they were simply unable to adapt to the environment of Asgard.

The two scientists deeply regretted not having the courage to inject themselves with the Extremis Virus, which prevented them from collecting firsthand data.

Unable to tolerate the loss of such firsthand information, the two did not hesitate to inject themselves with the Extremis Virus and are now anxiously waiting at home for the virus modification to finish.

Scientists' caution can never withstand the courage brought about by their thirst for knowledge.

Fortunately, the Civil War in Asgard lasted a long time. Although Hela was incredibly powerful and could resurrect infinitely, she was ultimately alone. Even if she went on a killing spree, she couldn't wipe out the entire country of Asgard in a very short time.

After Gillian and Maya Hansen were completed and taken to Asgard by Shazo, the Civil War continued, but it was undoubtedly nearing its end.

At this time, the Forest god Vidar, the mighty god Magni, the courage god Modi, the strength Goddess Thrud, and the hunting god Ullr, who had led the army in battle, had all died in battle. Asgard's army had lost its commander and was fighting spontaneously only out of honorable courage.

During the nine-day battle, Hela was killed more than five times, but each time she was resurrected, she received a power-up.

Hela has now fully recovered her power, a powerful Gods who has ravaged the Nine Realms, and is not someone that the Asgard army can shake.

On the contrary, Hela's Unlimited Blade Works are executed more fluidly, giving the enemy no chance to get close. At a distance of a hundred meters or so, she can...

He would be impaled by a longsword and die.

Even Asgard's Airship can now be cleaved in two with a single sword strike, exploding into massive fireworks on the spot.

The wreckage of the Airship fell and started a fire on the ground.

Beautiful Asgard is now shrouded in fire and smoke, littered with corpses and ruins.

Skye sighed, "What a pity, such a beautiful place, ruined by a Civil War."

Shazo laughed and said, "It's no pity. We can't occupy this place without destroying the home of the Asgardians."

Skye was stunned. "Huh?"

Norman, Abomination, Gillian, and Maya Hansen were equally bewildered. "Take over this place?"

Shazo laughed, "This is a deal between me and All-Father Odin."

"I've come to solve the problem of Hela and Asgard's civilization continuing on Earth, and Hela herself and Asgard are my reward."

"So, Norman, when you go back, you'll be responsible for purchasing coastal land in Norway and settling the Asgardians survived the Civil War, in exchange for this magical continent."

Norman Osborn was dumbfounded and couldn't even speak coherently, "Aba, aba----"

Not only was Norman stunned, but all the members of the Shazo Legion were dumbfounded.

The pace of change is too fast. Before, they only had a piece of land in New York, and it took them more than three years to expand into Nevada and the Caribbean Sea.

Each built an auxiliary base.

In the end, the Shazo Legion is still operating within the United States.

Who knew that a few days ago a magical Pure Land Secret Realm suddenly appeared, and the legion became a cross-dimensional legion.

Now, another wondrous alien land has been discovered, soon to become Interstellar Legion.

This pace of progress is too fast; they can't keep up.

Under Shazo's repeated urging, Norman was the first to react and asked, "How many people do we need to accommodate?"

Shazo opened his [Mantra] to sense the remaining population of Asgard, estimated the rate of death, and then replied, "Prepare for the resettlement of 3 million people."

"Wow, resettling 3 million people, that's a massive undertaking." Norman Osborn quickly calculated the legion's cash flow and the land prices in Norway, then immediately replied, "Boss, no problem."

"We have enough cash to buy enough land to resettle 3 million people without any problem."

Shazo nodded in satisfaction. "Then you should go back to Earth first and finalize the land purchase deal as soon as possible. Also, prepare enough building materials, food, beer, fuel, clothing, and other supplies."

"Don't worry, we won't lose money."

"These millions of Asgardians. On Earth, each of them could be considered little Superman. They could easily recruit tens of thousands of warriors and form an invincible army."

Shazo even laughed and said, "Especially those soldiers who fell on the battlefield, they were all veterans with experience in interstellar warfare, they are very valuable."

Resources.

Norman Osborn's eyes lit up. "I understand, boss. Just like you said, capital isn't money; money is just a unit of measurement for capital."

"True capital is the control over resources, and of all resources, human resources are the most valuable."

Shazo laughed heartily, "Haha, well said!"

"Norman, you have finally broken free from the puppet state controlled by capital and become a true capitalist."

Norman Osborn bowed his head and said sincerely, "Norman's achievements are entirely due to your guidance and help, boss. Otherwise, I would have died of a serious illness by now, and I wouldn't have achieved what I have today."

Shazo waved his hand. "This is nothing. We will have even greater success and a broader future, not only for you, but also for your son Harry."

"Keep it up, Norman."

Norman Osborn nodded emphatically. "Yes, sir!"

Shazo turned the Bifrost, sending Norman Osborn back to Earth, only to turn around and see Skye.

The girl's cheeks puffed out as she angrily asked, "Boss, Hela also a reward from All-Father Odin?"

Shazo was taken aback, then understood why Skye was angry. He smiled and explained, "There's no other way. Hela and Asgard are two sides of the same coin. If I want Asgard, I have to take Hela with me."

"Hela, the Hela, is a powerful Gods and could very well become a mainstay of my legion's fighting force."
