" Fandral Volstagg Hogun?"
"How could it be you guys?!"
Thor was both surprised and delighted when he recognized the three men who had shielded him from the fatal blow.
Without turning his head, Fandral said, "Your Highness, you are no match for her. Run for your lives!"
Volstagg and Hogun stepped forward and stood in a line alongside Fandral.
The two said in unison, "We will do everything in our power to stop her!"
Hela remained silent, simply holding the black orb imbued with profound deathly power, her face serene.
"Escape?" Thor struggled to break free from the wall, walked to the side of the Warriors Three of Asgard's spirits, and said while stretching his shoulders, "When have I ever intentionally run away?!"
His eyes were red and brimming with tears.
"It's good to fight alongside you all again..."
"This feels amazing!"
"Brothers!"
Fandral and the other two turned to look at Thor, then exchanged glances, and happy smiles appeared on their three illusory faces at the same time.
Hahahaha!
"You're absolutely right, Your Highness!"
"The feeling of death is absolutely awful! I so desperately miss the days when we drank and ate heartily together, fighting side-by-side against the enemy!!!"
"Have you finished renewing the old one, my foolish underground?" Hela asked coldly.
She stretched out her right arm, her palm facing Thor and his three companions.
The ball of black light trembled, as if it might be launched at any moment.
Thor raised his hand and pounded his chest, then, arms crossed, roared, "Come on!"
"Tsk~" Hela shook her head dismissively and said, "Three fragile souls, plus a piece of trash with potential but no ability to develop or utilize it..."
"When did the enemy of the mighty Goddess of Death fall to such a low level...?"
She glanced coldly at Fandral and his two companions, her attitude remaining condescending.
"My foolish little brother, let me teach you another lesson."
"True leaders never need friendships!"
Having said that, she gently pushed out the ball of black light.
'Whoosh!'
The black light was incredibly fast, traversing space in the blink of an eye and arriving in front of the Three Warriors.
"Let me do it!" Thor roared, and in a flash, he appeared in front of the Three Warriors ' spirits, crossing his arms in front of his chest!
Just like the Three Warriors who shielded him from Hela's fatal blow...
This time, he will try his best to shoulder everything!
However, things didn't go as planned...
The black light, as if from another dimension, eerily passed through his arms and chest, striking Fandral in the chest, who was positioned in the middle of the Three Warriors.
'boom!'
Fandral's ghost suddenly burst into flames of chilling black fire.
"What's this?!"
Fandral stared blankly at the changes in his body.
His soul was completely vaporized and dissolved in the blink of an eye under the overwhelming corrosive power of death!
" Fandral, no!"
Volstagg and Hogun gasped as they watched Fandral disappear from their sight.
But the next second, after corroding Fandral, the remaining black cold flames suddenly expanded and exploded.
'boom!'
Volstagg and Hogun were caught in the deadly cold flames of the explosion and, like Fandral before them, were quickly vaporized.
Thor's body froze on the spot.
He sensed the three familiar auras disappearing one after another behind him, looked down at himself who was unharmed, and was completely dumbfounded.
" Fandral... Volstagg... Hogun ..."
"No! I said I would shoulder everything!"
"Things shouldn't be like this!"
"This shouldn't be happening!"
He shook his head, looking utterly incredulous.
Hela said dismissively, "My foolish brother!"
"Your three idiot friends are just like you; they don't seem to understand one thing..."
"What?" Thor asked instinctively.
"I am Hela, the Goddess of Death of the Nine Realms!" Hela proudly raised her head.
"I control all death in the Nine Realms!"
"To oppose me means to oppose death itself!"
"Three mere souls—I can save them, and I can destroy them with a flick of my finger."
Hearing Hela belittle Fandral and his two companions to the point of worthlessness, Thor instantly flew into a rage.
"Shut up!"
"I won't allow you to belittle them like that!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Thor felt an immense Divine Power he had never experienced before, surging forth from the depths of his body along with a torrent of rage.
"They... are true warriors!"
'Boom!'
A thunderclap in the clear sky!
Blinding blue and white lightning instantly erupted from Thor's seven orifices.
"Warriors must not be desecrated!"
Thor felt he could easily control this immense Divine Power of lightning.
He subconsciously manipulated the Thunder Divine Power to create a ferocious two-handed giant axe.
The giant axe was entirely blue and white, with fine blue and white electric currents crackling along its surface...
"Roar!"
Thor excitedly brandished his Thunder Battle Axe and roared at Hela.
"Taste the consequences of angering God of Thunder!"
He raised the Thunder Battle Axe and transformed into a streak of blue-white lightning, charging towards Hela.
Hela's expression changed slightly; this kid's speed had increased!
She will sidestep to avoid it.
But in an instant, a chill suddenly ran through her abdomen.
Hela looked down and saw that her clothes had been ripped open by an axe blade at her abdomen.
Fine, blue-white lightning stubbornly clung to the cuffs of her clothes, hissing and crackling as it tried to penetrate her body.
Immediately afterwards, the blue-white lightning returned.
Hela dodged, hastily conjuring a black, hiltless sword to block in front of her.
'clang!'
The black sword was cleanly and decisively cleaved in two by Thor's Thunder Battle Axe!
'Boom! Boom! Boom!'
Thor transformed into blue-white lightning, frantically charging and slashing around Hela again and again.
Hela managed to block the attacks in time each time, but she was finding it increasingly difficult.
Finally, the Goddess of Death grew increasingly displeased, and a surge of anger suddenly welled up within her!
"Enough!"
She roared, instantly unleashing a powerful aura.
'Sizzle!'
The metal headband that held her long hair back was shattered instantly.
Hela's long, flowing hair fluttered even without wind.
'Click! Click! Click! Click!'
Pieces of jet-black armor kept appearing and automatically embedding themselves into her body.
In the blink of an eye, a majestic female warrior stood tall in the spot.
Hela, now revealing her true form Goddess of Death, had a ghostly light shining in her eyes.
She slowly raised her right hand.
One after another, hiltless black swords floated in circles behind her...
In an instant, she seemed to transform into a Buddha, and that black Sword Wheel was her 'Buddha's light'!
Hela suddenly looked up at Thor, who was standing in mid-air, enveloped in blue and white Thunder.
He gave a soft shout, "Go!"
The Sword Wheel instantly shattered, transforming into streaks of incredibly fast light that shot towards Thor.
'Whoosh whoosh!'
Thousands upon thousands of hiltless black swords transformed into streaks of Black Lightning, raining down upon Thor.
Thor raised his Thunder Battle Axe, which he had created with his Divine Power.
'Boom!'
A thick bolt of blue-white lightning descended from the sky and struck the Thunder Battle Axe.
'Sizzle~'
The Thunder Battle Axe shone brightly, emitting a noisy buzzing sound.
'Click! Click! Click!'
A massive Thunder Energy Grid rapidly spread out from Thor's center.
'Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!'
The hiltless black swords swarmed and shot at the Thunder Energy Grid, but stuck to it.
Thor released his Thunder Battle Axe, his body transforming into blue-white lightning, instantly bursting through the electric net and arriving beside Hela.
He swung a heavy punch at Hela's left temple.
Hela swiftly raised her elbow to block Thor's fist, then with her other hand, she made a claw-like motion and grabbed Thor's waist.
The claws were wreathed in seemingly tangible black claw-like light, making them appear exceptionally ruthless and sharp.
Thor felt a chill in his abdomen.
His expression changed slightly, and he immediately let out a loud shout.
"Drink it!"
A surge of immense Thunder Divine Power, like thunder, erupted from his powerful body.
'boom!'
Caught off guard, Hela was thrown back by this Divine Power.
She tumbled several times before regaining her balance.
"You've made some progress!"
Having suffered a minor setback, Hela offered a compliment, and then her figure suddenly blurred.
"But it's still too immature!"
The voice came directly behind Thor.
Immediately afterwards, a fair hand with distinct knuckles landed on Thor's back with lightning speed.
'boom!'
An immense, compressed death Divine Power burst forth from his palm.
Thor like Hela had, but with even greater speed, spinning as he plummeted toward the ground.
'boom!'
A cloud of dust rose up, and the solid stone floor of the Colosseum was instantly smashed into a large crater.
Thor jumped out of the pit, shook his shoulders, and reached behind him to grab something.
He tried several different positions, but because of his overly strong arm muscles, he could never reach his back.
"Hiss!"
Thor could only grimace and hiss as he twisted his back muscles to relieve the constant pain, numbness, and itching coming from his back...
Hela turned around and swooped down.
'Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!'
The hiltless black sword clinging to the Thunder Energy Grid in mid-air suddenly trembled violently.
Then, they collectively unleashed a burst of Mana, forcefully tearing apart the constraints of the Thunder Energy Grid.
Then, like weary birds returning to their nests, they swarmed towards Hela.
'Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!'
These thousands of hiltless black swords rapidly assembled into a massive circular Sword Wheel behind Hela.
'Buzz!'
The assembled Sword Wheel hovered behind Hela, spinning rapidly.
Hela swooped down at incredible speed, but just as she was about to reach Thor, her body suddenly froze.
Immediately afterwards, she turned her body around abruptly.
The black Sword Wheel spinning behind him was like a high-speed chainsaw cutting towards Thor.
Thor's expression changed drastically.
He quickly crossed his arms to shield himself.
The hastily gathered Thunder Divine Power formed a blue-white Divine Power arm guard on his arm.
'Clang clang clang!'
The black Sword Wheel slashed wildly at Thor's arms, producing a series of ear-piercing sounds.
The light of the blue-white Divine Power arm guard quickly dimmed, and numerous cracks began to appear on the arm guard.
'Click!'
Just as the blue and white Divine Power arm guards were on the verge of shattering, the black Sword Wheel abruptly stopped spinning...
'Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!'
The shape of the Sword Wheel instantly changed, transforming into a giant black sword wing.
'Whew!'
The sword-like wings flapped violently, sending Thor flying.
'Click~ Click~'
As Thor was in mid-air, the blue and white Divine Power arm guards shattered instantly, revealing his battered arms.
'Hmm!'
He groaned and tried to raise his arms.
However, the intense and rapid vibrations from the black Sword Wheel's previous frenzied cutting penetrated the protection of his blue-white Divine Power arm guards, causing numerous cracks to appear in his arm bones...
Thor this exertion, the cracks in the bones of Thor's arms suddenly spread outwards.
'Click~~'
Thor felt a sharp pain shoot through his arms, and the Thunder Divine Power circulating rapidly within him suddenly stopped.
The Thunder Battle Axe in mid-air instantly disintegrated into a ball of Thunder Divine Power flashing with blue and white light...
The Thunder Energy Grid, powered by it, then vanished in streaks of blue-white lightning.
At the same time, Thor's body completely lost control.
He crashed straight into the wall of the Colosseum.
'boom!'
A large, human-shaped crater appeared.
Coincidentally, two meters to the left of this human-shaped crater, there are two more human-shaped craters arranged in a row...
Thor was embedded in the wall, feeling excruciating pain all over his body, and no longer had the strength to struggle to break free.
He felt the immense Thunder Divine Power within him recede like the tide, quickly retreating into the depths of his body.
'Whoosh~ Whoosh~'
Hela flapped her black sword wings and slowly descended in front of Thor.
'Whoosh!'
The tip of the sword wing instantly pierced Thor's right shoulder.
'Ugh!'
Thor couldn't help but let out a scream.
Hela stared at him coldly, mercilessly mocking, "The way you used your Divine Power just now couldn't even compare to when I first picked up a weapon and killed someone at the age of ten."
"Kill... kill me," Thor said through gritted teeth, enduring the pain all over his body.
Hela narrowed her eyes, and the black sword wing that had pierced Thor's shoulder instantly withdrew.
But then, the tip of the sword wing instantly pierced Thor's left shoulder.
'Ugh!'
Thor screamed again.
Hela sneered, "You think I wouldn't dare kill you?"
She glanced at old Odin in the stands, then suddenly floated over to face Thor.
Hela grinned maliciously and said, "I'm going to kill you, and even if that old man is here, he can't stop me!"
Thor's pupils suddenly contracted, and cold sweat instantly soaked his entire body.
"You... you..."
He looked at Hela in horror, and for a moment dared not show any more toughness or defiance.
In that instant, Thor felt a chilling killing intent emanating from Hela.
He could sense that the killing intent was resolute and ruthless!
'Pfft!'
The black sword wings withdrew.
Thor trembled, but dared not utter a sound.
'Whoosh~ Whoosh~'
Hela flapped her black sword-like wings and flew towards the stands.
Odin downed the hot tea in one gulp, and the teacup in his hand vanished instantly.
He slowly stood up from his seat and looked at Hela flying towards him.
Wait until Hela flies over.
The White Queen and the Red Queen jumped up with a 'whoosh'.
"Clap clap clap!" The two of them clapped enthusiastically, their little faces beaming with excitement.
Hela! You are amazing!
"Yes, yes, yes! That was a beautiful play!"
"She's even prettier than those actresses in Hollywood movies!"
"So beautiful! So handsome!"
The two little ones showered Hela with praise as if it were free.
Hela, who had flown up aggressively and was about to say something to Odin Hela, was also completely bewildered.
Interrupted from her 'spellcasting', she could only force a smile and nod to the White Queen and the Red Queen.
