Source Energy Diamond! Hela's Nightmare
As the Clockwork's golden mechanical figure dissipated, Jiang Li reverted to his human form.
The world is quiet now.
Hela stood frozen in place, the shock gradually fading from her lifeless eyes, replaced by extreme anger at being played for.
She is Hela, Odin's eldest daughter, the embodiment of death! Her ally—that self-proclaimed ruler of the universe, Vilgax —was tossed into another dimension like trash in the blink of an eye?
"You think this is the end? Mortal!"
Hela let out a sharp roar, and her long black hair, which had been close to her scalp, suddenly exploded, transforming into her iconic crown of thorns.
She suddenly spread her arms wide, and the divine power beneath Asgard surged wildly in response to the queen's wrath.
"I am the master of Asgard! As long as I stand on this land, my power is boundless!!"
Rumble!
The entire divine realm trembled. Countless black Night Sky Sword appeared out of thin air—this time, not hundreds, but tens of thousands!
They densely covered the sky, like a black hanging river, locking onto Jiang Li and Thor.
"Go to hell!!"
With Hela's wave of her hand, a rain of black swords, accompanied by a piercing shriek that tore through the air, poured down like a storm of pear blossoms!
"Watch out!!" Thor's expression changed drastically, and the lightning in his twin blades surged as he prepared to rush forward and take the hit with his bare hands.
"Step back, Thor."
Jiang Li reached out and stopped him, a smile of excitement curving his lips. He looked at the rain of swords filling the sky, but instead of fear, he glanced at the Omnitrix on his wrist.
Just moments after defeating Vilgax, the system notified him that he had collected a huge amount of "shock value" and, due to contact with high-dimensional spatial energy, had unlocked a brand new alien gene.
"Perfect, I'll use you to test out the newly unlocked guy."
Jiang Li abruptly turned the dial and pressed an icon that emitted a violent blue arc of electricity.
"Omnitrix, show time!"
Sizzle--Boom!!
A dazzling azure energy beam shot into the sky, instantly scattering the first wave of sword rain.
In the intense light, Jiang Li's body rapidly petrified, transforming into a powerful rock giant.
But unlike ordinary rocks, dazzling blue high-pressure energy surged from the crevices in the rocks of his chest, shoulders, and arms, as if a blue star was sealed within his body.
Four enormous energy spikes pierced from his shoulders, crackling with dangerous arcs of electricity.
Source Energy Diamond Rock!
"This feeling... is full of energy."
Jiang Li, transformed into the Source Energy Diamond, clenched his giant fist made of rock and blue energy, feeling the surging power within him.
He looked up at the rain of swords falling from the sky and let out a low, cold laugh.
"Come on, you wicked woman, let me see if your toothpick can pierce my energy field!"
Jiang Li did not dodge, but instead crossed her arms sharply in front of her chest.
"Energy Shield!"
Buzz!!
The blue energy within his body erupted instantly, condensing into a massive, semi-transparent blue energy barrier in front of him.
Ding ding ding ding ding!
Countless Night Sky Sword struck the Energy Shield, producing a dense, crisp sound.
Those sharp blades, capable of piercing even a god's body, began to rapidly disintegrate and melt upon contact with the blue energy, like ice meeting magma, ultimately transforming into a pure flow of energy!
"What?! This is impossible!" Hela's pupils shrank sharply; she could feel her attack being "eaten up" by the other party.
"It's not over yet!"
Jiang Li roared, the rock armor on his chest cracked open, and the blue energy core shone brightly, "According to the law of conservation of energy, I will accept all the energy you sent!!"
Sizzle!
The core characteristic of Source Energy Diamond is Energy Absorption and Reshaping!
The magical energy that struck the shield was frantically absorbed into Jiang Li's body. The blue light on his body grew brighter and brighter until it turned into a blinding white light, and the surrounding air was ionized and smelled burnt.
"Now, I'll return the principal to you with interest!!"
Jiang Li abruptly removed his shield, raised his right hand high, and the energy within his body gathered in his palm, instantly condensing into a giant blue energy axe that was forty meters long!
"Source Energy Battle Axe - Heaven Splitter!"
Boom!!
Jiang Li, wielding a giant energy axe, slashed down fiercely at Hela from hundreds of meters away!
A terrifying blue slash wave tore through the ground of the Bifrost, carrying the force of a thunderbolt, instantly cleaving through the rain of black swords, and heading straight for Hela.
"No!!"
Hela let out a terrified scream and hurriedly summoned countless layers of Obsidian shields to try and defend herself.
But faced with the Source Energy Diamond's attack, which had accumulated all of her offensive energy, those shields were as fragile as paper.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The shield shattered layer by layer.
The blue slashing wave slammed heavily into Hela, sending the Lady Deathstrike flying like a baseball, crashing into the ruins of the Golden Palace in the distance, kicking up clouds of dust.
One strike, and the field is cleared!
"Whew... that feels great!"
Jiang Li himself of the giant energy axe, looked at Hela lying in the ruins in the distance, her fate unknown, and patted the rock dust off his hands with satisfaction.
Just then, a groan filled with confusion and morning grumpiness suddenly came from the edge of the battlefield.
"Ugh... my head hurts so much..."
Dr. Bruce Dr. Banner, who had been pretending to be dead on the ground, finally covered his forehead and staggered to his feet.
He looked around in confusion, only to see the mess everywhere. The terrible Vilgax was gone, the big wolf was gone, and even Hela was buried in the ruins.
"What happened?" Banner stared blankly at Jiang Li, who had transformed into a blue stone man. "Did I transform? Did I win?"
Jiang Li deactivated his transformation, reverting to his lazy, boyish self. He walked over and patted Banner on the shoulder, saying earnestly, "You just took a blow to the Asgard floor with your face; that was incredibly brave. But now..."
"Hulk!!"
Before Jiang Li finish speaking, the Hulk consciousness within Banner seemed to sense the tranquility after the battle and felt extremely dissatisfied.
With a roar, Banner's skin instantly turned green, and his muscles burst through his clothes.
Hulk has arrived!
The large, green creature angrily looked around, snorting, as if looking for something to smash.
But when he looked around, he found that apart from Thor and Jiang Li, there wasn't a single enemy standing on the entire Bifrost.
Hulk scratched his head, looked at Jiang Li with a slightly aggrieved expression, and pointed to the ruins in the distance. "Big Sister... is gone? Big Wolf... is gone too?"
"They're gone, they were all chased away." Jiang Li shrugged as if coaxing a child. "Who told you to sleep in?"
"Hulk... I hate it... sleep!" Hulk plopped down on the ground angrily, sulking like a 300-pound child.
Thor watched this scene, his hands gripping his twin swords trembling slightly.
He looked at Jiang Li, his eyes filled with complex emotions—gratitude, shock, and a hint of shame as a prince of the gods. If Asgard always had to rely on Jiang Li to save them, what would be the point of Thor?
"Jiang Li ..." Thor took a deep breath, lightning crackling around him. "Thank you. But as you said before... this is my family matter."
In the distant ruins, Hela staggered to her feet once more. Though battered and bruised, the power of Asgard was mending her body.
Jiang Li back, relinquishing the main position on the battlefield.
He knew this moment belonged to Thor.
"Go, Thor." Jiang Li pointed to the sky.
