Fall of Odin! Return of Hela, the Goddess of Death!
Asgard.
The sky was so overcast it seemed as if water was about to drip from it, and the entire Asgard was shrouded in a somber atmosphere.
The battle between Odin and Hela has reached a fever pitch.
The clash between these two god-level powerhouses was absolutely devastating. Asgard, the vast continent that floated in the Universe, began to collapse and shatter on a large scale under the impact of their Divine Power.
The magnificent Asgard buildings collapsed and sank in large sections.
Odin was old after all. Although he wore the Destroyer Armor, the Divine Power within him had been exhausted to the extreme.
As the battle progressed, Odin began to accumulate new wounds.
On the other hand, Hela's power on the land of Asgard is truly inexhaustible. Even if she were pierced by Odin's Gungnir, she would be completely healed in the blink of an eye, leaving not even a scar.
As one side gained strength while the other lost it, Odin gradually became less and less capable.
As the fight progressed, even the lightning on the tip of Gungnir, the Gungnir that was said to always hit, completely dimmed.
Bang!
It was yet another extremely violent clash of Divine Power.
Odin was thrown back several steps by the shock, and could only barely steady himself by using Gungnir to support himself on the ground.
He was panting heavily, the flame of life within him flickering like a candle in the wind, threatening to go out at any moment.
"Hela..."
Odin slowly raised his head, looking with his One-Eye at his eldest daughter, who was full of ambition and bloodlust, his voice extremely weak.
"Spare your two younger brothers."
"If they are willing to kneel before me and submit to me, I might consider sparing their lives."
Hela stood there, holding a blood-dripping black longsword, her tone cold and devoid of any familial affection.
Odin said nothing more.
It was as if he had finally let go of all his obsessions and concerns.
His body began to gradually transform into golden dust, starting from his feet and moving upwards.
These golden dust particles drifted away on the wind, flying towards the endless sea in the distance.
All-Father Odin, has fallen.
Hela stared at the spot where Odin had disappeared, her expression complex.
Although Odin was the culprit who imprisoned her for thousands of years, he was, after all, her biological father who had fought alongside her.
However, this complex emotion lasted only a moment.
Hela's ambition had long since swelled to an uncontrollable level during the long years of her imprisonment.
She suddenly waved her hand.
Rumble!
Countless enormous black swords sprang up from the ruins of Asgard like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, forcefully supporting the sinking continental plates.
Hela then strode into the dilapidated Asgard and unceremoniously sat on the throne that symbolized the highest power in the Nine Realms.
"Wake up!"
"My loyal Death Legion!"
"Come with me to conquer! To slaughter!"
"Our next target is the Midgard!"
"It's that damn Kamar-Taj!!!"
Hela let out a roar that echoed through the heavens.
The entire Asgard trembled violently at the roar.
The underground tombs that once held the remains of Asgard heroes collapsed with a deafening roar. Countless pale white skeleton soldiers, their eyes burning with eerie green soul fire, crawled out of the ruins and knelt in dense rows outside the Asgard palace.
Hela stared at the kneeling Death Legion, her eyes flashing with an extremely crazed killing intent.
Just now, at the moment she broke through the seal.
She clearly felt three forces suppressing her!
One of them was the thunderous Divine Power of Odin.
The other two, however, were extremely pure Magic auras!
Hela possessed ancient memories, and she instantly recognized it as the Magic energy unique to Kamar-Taj!
How dare they interfere in Asgard's family affairs! How dare they participate in sealing her away!
She will make Kamar-Taj pay a bloody price!
Earth.
New York Sanctum.
Today it's Mordo's turn to be stationed here.
He was sitting in the hall with his eyes closed in meditation when he suddenly heard a loud crashing sound from above.
Before he could react...
Boom!
The glass dome of the New York Sanctum was smashed open, leaving a huge hole. Two extremely disheveled figures fell from the sky and crashed heavily onto the Sanctum's marble floor.
This sudden turn of events infuriated all the Sorcerers in the New York Sanctum.
Is this ever going to end?!
Every now and then, people come to the Sanctum to cause trouble. Do they really think the Sorcerers of Kamar-Taj are pushovers?
The Sorcerers instantly went into battle mode. Some erected Magic Shield, while others conjured Magic blades, and they aggressively surrounded the two reckless intruders, ready to tear them to pieces.
For a moment, the entire New York Sanctum was filled with Magic light.
When Loki rubbed his sore backside and got up from the ground.
What I saw was an extremely spectacular sight.
Dozens of fully armed, murderous battle Sorcerers were staring at him with eyes full of hatred, as if he were a dead man.
Loki was genuinely panicked this time.
He swallowed hard and forced an extremely ingratiating, fawning smile onto his face.
"Distinguished masters... if I said this was a misunderstanding, would you believe me?"
Clearly, the Sorcerers weren't buying his act.
What's more, Loki's face is practically legendary in Kamar-Taj. He was a top war criminal when he led an alien army to invade New York!
Without a word, the Sorcerers raised their Magic Weapon and prepared to charge forward, to give Loki a good jolt of the fear he felt when Hulk had pounded him to the ground years ago.
"Stop!"
Mordo shouted, stopping the angry Sorcerers.
He stepped forward, staring at Loki and Thor had just gotten up beside him, with an extremely grim expression.
"Loki, and Thor."
"What exactly do you Asgardians want? Forcibly entering the New York Sanctum, you are openly provoking Kamar-Taj!" Mordo demanded sharply.
"No! We didn't come here to fight!"
Thor gripped Mjolnir tightly, his eyes bloodshot, and shouted anxiously, "We need to see the Sorcerer Supreme! Now!"
"Do you think you can just see the Sorcerer Supreme whenever you want?"
Mordo frowned and retorted without hesitation, "Even if Odin himself came, he would have to give prior notice. Who do you two think you are?"
"I don't have time to waste with you! We have something extremely important to discuss! It concerns the life and death of the entire Nine Realms!" Thor was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
"No matter what, you have to follow the rules."
"You must wait outside. You may only enter with the permission of the Sorcerer Supreme. Furthermore, you must compensate for the Sanctum's repair costs." Mordo stood firm, his attitude extremely unyielding.
"You stubborn fool!"
Thor roared. He simply couldn't believe that this charcoal-faced man was still arguing with him about rules and compensation, something that even his all-powerful father found terrifying!
Enraged, Thor raised Mjolnir, ready to force his way in.
"Thor, what's wrong? It's been years, and you're itching for a beating again? Trying to make a move on Kamar-Taj's territory?"
At this tense moment...
An extremely languid voice came from a corner of the hall.
Upon hearing this voice, Thor's hand, which was holding the hammer, froze in mid-air.
He turned his head mechanically.
Just then, they saw Ren slowly walking out of a newly opened golden Portal.
"Ren? What brings you here?" Mordo asked, somewhat surprised, when he saw Ren.
"Oh, I sensed Magic fluctuations over here, so I came to check it out. And while I was at it, I picked up these two troublemakers," Ren said with a smile.
"I see. Alright, since you've stepped in, you can take the person with you."
Mordo nodded, offering no objection.
Ren now holds an extremely high position in Kamar-Taj. Although he holds the title of a Probationary Master, in everyone's mind, he is already the second most important person after the Ancient One.
Moreover, for those young apprentices who are just starting out, Ren is a living legend who can casually conjure up nuclear bombs.
Since Ren asked for people, Mordo naturally gave him a lot of face.
Ren nodded to Mordo, then casually drew a Portal and kicked the still-dazed Thor and Loki inside.
A moment later.
In Kamar-Taj, in Ren's private meditation room.
Before Thor and Loki could recover from the dizziness of the teleportation, they were already being pushed onto the soft sofa by Ren.
Ren casually pulled two cans of chilled beer from his Storage Space and slammed them onto the coffee table in front of them.
"Alright, stop looking like your father just died. Tell me, is it your crazy sister Hela ran away?"
Ren sat down in the chair opposite him and went straight to the point.
Hearing the name "Hela".
Loki shuddered in fright, shifting uneasily on the sofa, his eyes darting back and forth towards Thor.
Without saying a word, Thor picked up the beer in front of him, tilted his head back, and gulped it down in one go.
After finishing his drink, Thor wiped his mouth and said with red eyes:
"That's right! My father told us before he died that Hela's seal had been broken."
"He told us to seek help from the Sorcerer Supreme. Ren, could you take us to see her?"
Thor stared intently at Ren with eyes full of longing, like a pitiful stray dog.
"Unfortunately, the Sorcerer Supreme is not in Kamar-Taj at the moment. She has gone on a long trip and her return date is uncertain."
Ren frowned slightly and told him the truth.
Since being received by Eternity, the Ancient One has left mysteriously, and no one knows where she went.
"What are we going to do?!"
"Without the Sorcerer Supreme's help, how can we save Asgard!" Thor cried out in despair, clutching his hair.
"Save Asgard?"
Ren looked at Thor like he was an idiot and couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Are you out of your mind?"
"With your pathetic skills, you think you can go back to Asgard to fight Hela?"
"In Asgard, Hela's power is limitless. Even if the Ancient One herself went there, on their home turf, she would only get beaten up!"
