Hela, the Death Goddess

Hela

Because of the two enormous beasts' frenzied battle, the Asgardians had to evacuate the plaza in front of the Royal Palace and retreat all the way to Rainbow Avenue.

The Asgardians were relatively fortunate; the most Bad Luck were the Undead Army awakened by Hela. Despite their martial prowess and fighting spirit, they were tragically crushed into dust by Fenrir and Hulk, as well as Hela and Skye's battle groups.

Defeat before the battle even begins—this must be the most heartbreaking moment for the Heroic Spirit.

Thor was carried away by Heimdall, his eyes filled with tears as he looked at the Royal Palace the whole way.

This was the Royal Palace where he was born and raised, the home he cherished so deeply, and now it was collapsing in large, devastating waves right before his eyes.

Thor was heartbroken.

Hela was just as heartbroken as Thor.

Her pain was actually more intense Thor's, because the Royal Palace was built bit by bit from the cramped old palace that she had watched as it was demolished.

When Asgard's military might became invincible and completely unified the Nine Realms, the magnificent new Royal Palace was also officially completed.

Unfortunately, the Death Goddess lived there for less than a century before being sealed away due to a clash of ideologies with her father, and was confined to the darkness.

Nostalgia for the deserted Sealing Space.

Now that Hela has officially entered the Royal Palace, she naturally regards Asgard as her territory and the Royal Palace as her own home.

But the enemy forced him to work with Fenrir to demolish the house; his heart was truly bleeding.

"Hehe, you dare to get distracted during battle? Goddess Hela, you're really carefree."

Skye and Shazo have worked together for many years, often transforming into internet gods. Over time, their tacit understanding has reached the point where they can share the [Mantra].

With the help of Shazo's [Mantra], Skye noticed the momentary lapse in Hela's gaze.

Without hesitation, she seized the opportunity when the enemy was distracted and launched a powerful Quake attack.

[Newgate's left hook]

Okay, this move actually has nothing to do with Whitebeard. It's a preparatory move evolved from the most powerful sonic attack [Thunderclap on a Clear Day] in "Tiger Roar Thunder Sound Skill".

Using an arc-shaped Quake originating from the left, a large-scale shockwave field is created centered on the enemy's body.

Because it is most convenient to launch an attack from the left side using punches, this move also became a move in the Newgate series of Quake punches.

In fact, this move itself is extremely powerful, and its arc-shaped trajectory is unpredictable and impossible to dodge.

Although Hela was alert in time and realized the danger of the attack, she was unable to dodge it and was punched in the heart by Skye.

The sudden, concentrated Quake turned Hela's face deathly pale, and even her heart stopped beating.

The pain, the explosive sensation, and the impact from her heart caused the Death Goddess to lose consciousness on the spot, falling from the sky and crashing into the ruins of the ravaged Royal Palace.

Skye, who had landed a powerful punch, did not pursue. She remembered the information Shazo had given her: Hela was immortal before the destruction of Asgard.

Especially in Asgard, Hela will instantly resurrect upon death and heal all damage.

Therefore, in Asgard, it's better to injure Hela than to kill her in large numbers. Ideally, her body should be mostly intact, with only her heart or brain suffering paralysis-level damage, slowing down her recovery process to the maximum extent.

But neither Shazo nor Skye expected that the moment Hela regained consciousness, she used her Death God Power to conjure a longsword and pierced directly through her heart.

She committed suicide.

Then Hela was resurrected unharmed.

Skye's expression was grave. Without any hesitation, she waved her hand downwards and shouted, "Beat!!"

[Thunderclap on a Clear Day]

The Quake field constructed by [Newgate's Left Hook] suddenly erupted, forming beautiful ripple interference patterns in a three-dimensional form, powerfully lifting the Hela tens of meters into the air and locking her at the center.

Hela was not afraid of death at this moment. Enduring excruciating pain, she gritted her teeth and glared at Skye, saying hatefully, "Your power is great, but I will be resurrected soon, and then I will let you experience the power of the Asgardians!"

She was torn apart by the Quake the moment she finished speaking.

First, it was torn apart along the interference pattern, then further divided, until the last drop of blood could not escape the splitting, until it was completely shattered to the atomic level, leaving not a trace of life information.

The matter was shattered to such an extent that it was completely vaporized, resulting in an 800-fold increase in volume, thus triggering a massive explosion.

Hela's remains have completely vanished; the so-called blasting into dust was nothing more than that.

Skye waited cautiously for ten seconds, a minute, five minutes, but Hela did not resurrect. Surprised and curious, she turned to look at Shazo.

The girl tilted her head and asked, "Boss, Goddess Hela?"

Shazo smiled and replied, "Of course not, she already started the resurrection process."

"This time, the resurrection will take a little longer, and the increase in power won't be too exaggerated."

Skye was even more curious. "Why is that?"

Shazo replied, "Because the manner of death is different, the difficulty of resurrection is also different."

"While your [Thunderclap on a Clear Day] couldn't quite create something from nothing, its power was still very effective, tearing Hela's body to the atomic level and destroying all her life information."

"Even when Hela was torn apart by the Gungnir and blasted into a rain of blood, Hela never died so thoroughly."

"The statement that Hela is immortal in Asgard is not false, but resurrection also requires a foundation. If there is basic life information, then matter can be rapidly accumulated to restore Hela's body, and she can be resurrected in a very short time."

"But now that Asgard has been completely destroyed, the resurrection process must begin with rebuilding life information, which is a massive undertaking."

Shazo laughed and said, "In this way, not only will the resurrection time be greatly prolonged, but too much power will also be wasted in the process, resulting in Hela not being powerful enough."

He looked at Skye and asked, "Skye, can you still fight?"

Skye assessed her condition and nodded, saying, "I think I can fight another match. I have enough strength to use..."

A bolt from the Thunderclap on a Clear Day.

77

Shazo asked, "Can it only be used once more?"

"Then let's forget about it. Even with me by your side, the risk of Goddess fighting Hela is still too high. I don't want anything to happen to you."

Skye breathed a sigh of relief and smiled sweetly, "Oh, okay, I'll listen to the boss."

"Then I'll watch the boss Kamui!"

Shazo Zuo laughed and said, "I'm not in a hurry at all."

He turned to look at the Rainbow Avenue: "I sensed Thor's aura suddenly swell. He must have fully Awakening the Odinforce and Awakening his lightning power, enough to fight Hela again."

"I plan to let Thor win this match; it's a small way I'm returning the favor from Asgard, and Odin will be very pleased."

As he spoke, Shazo placed his hand on Skye's shoulder, and the next second, the two appeared in the Bifrost Hall, once again far from the battlefield.

Eight more minutes passed, and the dilapidated Royal Palace was completely reduced to ruins under the ravages of Fenrir and Hulk.

By this time, Fenrir had been smashed into a bloody pulp by Hulk's punches, and his regenerative abilities as a necromancer should have been completely exhausted, leaving him unresponsive.

Hulk stopped attacking with satisfaction, raised his sticky hands, and the Roar to vent his triumph.

The smug Hulk lost his anger, his strength rapidly diminished, and his size quickly shrank, soon transforming back into the 2-meter version of the Hulk that everyone is most familiar with.

Just then, a cloud of black smoke appeared out of nowhere above the ruins of the Royal Palace. The negative emotional energy of death, decay, bloodshed, brutality, and Carnage sent chills down people's spines. A perfectly proportioned body with a curvaceous figure appeared in the black smoke.

Hela Goddess been resurrected.

Her divine power transformed into pieces of close-fitting clothing and armor, and she once again donned the Antler Helmet. Finally, all the black smoke condensed into a cloak behind her.

The black cloak had no clear edges; instead, it became illusory black smoke, dissipating into the air.

As the last wisp of black smoke completely disappeared, the Goddess Hela opened her eyes.

Her once azure eyes had turned pitch black, as if they contained endless darkness and death, but the unsettling smoky makeup on her face had disappeared, leaving her looking so fair and clean, making her seem approachable.

Shazo and Skye were both taken aback when they saw the reborn Death Goddess through the [Mantra].

Skye was the most surprised. She couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hands and exclaim in a muffled voice, "What's going on? Hela's power hasn't increased much, but... she gives me a feeling of far too much danger."

Shazo's expression grew more serious, and he said with a hint of earnestness, "Hela has completely merged with death. She is now a true Death Goddess, and may even have resonated with the death of one of the Five Cosmic Entities."

But the next moment, a smile returned to his face, "Skye, you're in luck. This Death Goddess is not easy to deal with; you might really be in danger of dying."

Skye let out a breath and asked, "Boss, are you going to do it yourself?"

Shazo shook his head and said, "No, no, no, I already said, this match is for Thor. His growth still needs to be honed by his sister."

"Huh?" Skye's eyes widened. "Boss, Thor's strength is just so-so. I can beat him up. How can he withstand Hela's ravages?"

Shazo said, "Skye, don't underestimate Thor. He is the fourth generation of the Asgardians, and he is definitely not as weak as he has appeared before."

"Most importantly, he has grown a lot just now, especially since the true Odinforce is the kind that grows stronger with each setback. The fiercer Hela's attacks, the greater Thor's progress will be."

Skye pouted, unable to contain her jealousy, and complained, "The Asgardians are truly amazing! Not only are they born gods, but some can also inherit the power of their ancestors and rapidly grow stronger in a short time. Some can even be bound to a world, becoming immortal and indestructible beings."

Shazo scoffed, "You little brat, I've already led you onto the grand path, and you're still jealous of the Asgardians?"

"If you were to tell Odin about the ' Tiger Roar Thunder Sound Skill ' you've cultivated, this god-king would most likely abandon Odinforce and start cultivating with you instead."

"Is this technique really that miraculous?" Skye asked incredulously. "Then why don't we give it to Odin?"

Shazo paused for a few seconds before replying, "Because Odin isn't a good person. If he knew the value of the ' Tiger Roar Thunder Sound Skill,' he would most likely lead the Asgard army to invade Earth, using the lives of Earthlings as hostages to force us to hand over the technique, or even imprison us."

Skye was even more surprised. She questioned, "But from what I've observed of Odin, he seems quite kind and gentle."

Shazo shook his head and said, "That old bastard is a true political monster. He only cares about the interests of Asgard and has no real sense of right or wrong."

"The benevolent Odin we saw was real. Because he was dying, he could only eliminate one enemy for Asgard. Killing me was too risky and unprofitable, so he used this opportunity and the floating continent of Asgard to exchange for my protection of Asgard."

"If he knew about the ' Tiger Roar Thunder Sound Skill ' and realized that this technique could save him from death, he would immediately turn on me and fight me to the death."

Skye nodded. "I understand, boss."

"These politicians are truly monsters."

"Hmm." Shazo nodded in agreement, "Apart from that instructor, those who play politics are all corrupt and not trustworthy."

"I'd much rather Hela and Thor than deal with the dangerous Odin. They're so innocent right now, their eyes so clear—and foolish."

Skye chuckled, "Boss, I think you're actually quite mischievous too—"

Shazo narrowed his eyes. "Skye, you naughty girl, how could you describe your boss like that?"

Skye laughed and said, "You've already taken a liking to those siblings, and you're even plotting to make them fight each other? Isn't that wicked?"

"Nonsense!" Shazo retorted seriously, "This isn't my problem, but rather the destiny they were destined to face after inheriting the power of the Asgardians."

"Divine power isn't something you can inherit at will, nor can you simply refuse it if you don't want it. And the most disgusting thing about the inheritance of divine power is that it inherits not only strength, but also destiny."

"For example, the Odinforce. The Inheritors is destined to lose their closest relatives and will clash with their blood-related peers in order to completely integrate it with themselves."

"Thor is destined to go through a sibling rivalry."

[Most importantly, Thor's eyes aren't blind yet, which doesn't fit the character of a god-king.]

Shazo didn't say the last sentence.
