Chapter 434 Your Dad is Still Your Dad
Obviously, the Ancient One, who returned from death with a depressed mind, quickly decided to take over the future troubles and at the same time reduced the pressure on Strange.

By the way, with just a few words, he taught Strange the path from an ordinary Sorcerer Supreme to a truly qualified and capable Sorcerer Supreme.

Compared with Kamar-Taj's terrifying execution ability and Ancient One's wisdom in dealing with the world, Asgard seems a little troublesome.

On the other hand, in the void created by Donton.

After summoning Thor's hammer many times without any response, Thor frowned in confusion, then sighed and said.

"Well, I don't know where my hammer is again.

But I'm used to it.

Great God, I have to go back to Asgard first. After I deal with my troublesome sister, I will go to Asgard’s treasury and bring you enough treasures!
Wait for me, I will be back soon because I am much stronger than before!

This time, Hela is definitely not my opponent, absolutely not!"

Having said that, Thor suddenly raised his Thunder Axe, and the Rainbow Bridge suddenly descended, sending him to Asgard.

And when the rainbow bridge descended in front of the Fairy Palace Square.

He was holding Gungnir in one hand and thrusting the Sword of Night Sky into Odin's waist with the other.

Blood was flowing from Odin's waist. He took a deep breath, raised his hand to push Hela away, and then covered the wound on his waist with his empty left hand.

"Hela!"

After using his divine power to stop the bleeding wound, Odin said to Hela with emotion.

“Although I don’t know who mercilessly brought us dead out of Valhalla.

But since fate has arranged it this way, it means that fate thinks we still have a second chance!
My daughter, our past has long since followed our death back to where it belonged.

For the rest of our lives, every day will be a new beginning, isn’t it!
We still have a chance to regain the feeling of cooperation in the past, but I, your father, am already old, and you are destined to have a place in the future Asgard!
I have never forgotten the hard work and efforts you have made for Asgard!

Now, I should have the opportunity to repay you, my daughter!"

By the time he finished speaking, Odin's wound had healed.

He held Gungnir with one hand, and raised his left hand horizontally, making a hugging gesture towards Hela.

Looking at Odin trying to hug her, Hela curled her lips and sneered domineeringly.

"Immortal thing!"

After scolding fiercely, Hela grinned and asked.

"Do you think I have a chance to go to Valhalla?
Old man, ever since my soul did not return to Valhalla, I knew that I no longer belonged to Asgard!

Unlike a hypocritical old ghost like you, when I and the entire Asgard attacked Surtur and burned it out completely.

My soul did not see my grandfather, but went into the arms of death!
That is the position where the true god of the universe sits. Death treats all life equally and grants me a portion of the power that belongs to the realm of death!

Now I have already become one of the followers of death!

The daughter you mentioned is already dead, old ghost, and even if I return to the realm of the living, the only option left for me is to gain more glory for death!!!"

Having said that, Hela raised the Night Sky Sword fiercely.

The next moment, a blue aura whizzed out from the sword and instantly blocked out the sun of Asgard.

Feeling the sky gradually darken, Odin paused for a moment, took a long breath, and sighed,
"Is it really Death, my daughter? Your killing spree in the past has indeed attracted the attention of Death!

Believe me, that is definitely not a path worth taking. I used to be as keen on killing as you, but after thousands of years, I have found the determination to lay down my weapons and enjoy the pleasure that peace brings me!
And you, my daughter, you are so much like me, and you are just missing the thousands of years in between.

You, who are so similar to me, will sooner or later become like me, tired of the blood in your hands and the soul behind you!
By then, I don't want you to get hurt again, absolutely not! "

At this point, Odin hit Gungnir hard, and thunder suddenly fell from the sky.

Although he is not Thor, he is the God of War and the true God King of Asgard. Of course, he is qualified to control thunder, one of Asgard's core rune magic.

Even though he is old, his fighting power is enough to fight against Hela, who has been favored by death.

But to be honest, Hela was originally the number one warrior in Asgard. Judging from her past performance, her combat power should be no lower than that of Odin, who is gradually losing his murderous intent.

Logically speaking, after gaining the favor of death, Hela should be far superior to Odin.

But there are some reasons behind this. One is that Odin chose not to kill Hela but to seal her instead. It was not that Odin really could not fight Hela, but that Odin could not bear to part with his daughter after all.

Odin once gave his beloved Thor's hammer to Hela, his eldest daughter, the one he admired the most and the daughter of Asgard's war who was most like him.

Because of this, Odin only sealed Hela in his own shadow and sealed her near Norway in Midgard.

As for his love for Hela...

Even if he was determined to keep Hela sealed away until he died, he would never meet Hela again.

Even though he was so angry with Hela, he still left a key for her!
So you see, he loves Hela so much that he doesn't care about the consequences, he must set his daughter free after he dies.

If she didn't love Hela, she would not have left such a huge trouble as Hela to Asgard without him.

Did Odin want his own daughter Hela to serve as a whetstone for his own son Thor?

What a joke!
Odin couldn't even bear to kill Loki, his godson!
At least the old Odin in the later period is an absolute baby-loving maniac!

In short, Hela now has the buff of Death's Favor.

But Odin, who is already stronger than Hela, now also has the buff of fatherly love to win back his beloved daughter.

Just like that, these two, who could be called the strongest warriors in Asgard, started a bloody battle with sword strikes and gunshots right in front of the Asgard Square.

Unfortunately……

There is a well-known saying that...

Blackening is three times stronger, whitewashing is three times weaker.

When Thor rode the Rainbow Bridge back to Asgard, Hela, who was wearing the blackened buff, had already pinned her old father, the white-haired old man, on the left pillar of the Asgard gate!
As soon as Thor landed, before he had time to take a look at the Asgard rebuilt by Donton, he saw his sister attacking his father's heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys.

This scene directly stressed Thor out, and his short hair stood up.

“Hela!!!”

He roared angrily, raised the Thunder Axe with both hands, and turned into thunder and shot towards Hela.

Looking at Thor, whose whole body was wrapped in plasma, Hela licked her lips excitedly and pulled the Night Sky Sword out of Odin's stomach.

"Thor!!!"

She left the bloody Odin behind, turned around, and glared at Thor with sword in hand.

Then, she raised her sword to defend herself and continued to shout at Thor in a cold voice.

"My brother, what are you doing? You don't even want to say hello to your sister who has returned from death!" "Hela!!!"

Facing Hela's ridicule, Thor swung his battle axe to split the mountain and smashed it heavily on the Night Sky Sword, instantly nailing Hela's ankle into the floor of Asgard.

After Hela's feet sank into the stone slabs of Asgard, the surrounding stone slabs were shattered by the force.

Accompanied by the noise of the floor breaking rapidly, Hela used both hands to support the sword and directly knocked Thor and the Thunder Axe, who were above his head, away!
After spinning a few times in the air, Thor landed heavily on the broken floor.

At the same time, Hela raised her hand, and the Night Sky Sword flew out of her hand like a flying sword, circling beside her, and then continued to split.

In just a short moment, the long sword in the night sky turned into thousands, and the blades were almost so numerous that they blocked the entire Asgard in Thor's eyes!

Looking at the sword blades everywhere, Thor let out a long breath, then picked up his axe and went up!
At this moment, the night sky sword came like a torrent and rushed straight towards Thor.

Thor, wrapped in increasingly thick plasma, forcibly cleared a flood peak in the ocean current stirred up by the sword blade, flowing upstream!
But Hela's soul is originally connected to the planet Asgard. As long as she stands on the land of Asgard, her divine power will never run out.

In addition, the power bestowed upon her by death also filled her blade with the breath of death, and that breath almost gradually extinguished Thor's thunder.

Feeling his divine power gradually weakening, Thor gritted his teeth and clenched the Thunder Axe.

This was the first time Thor felt so powerless since he forged the Thunder Axe.

Before this, not even Thanos or Strange had brought this kind of pressure to Thor.

Thanos without the gems is no match for Hela and Odin, and Strange is better at means rather than pure power!
As a result, Thor's breath weakened again and again in Hela's sea of ​​swords.

On the ground below the distant column, watching Thor gradually fall into a disadvantage, Odin finally got up from the ground, smiled bitterly and sighed.

"The disaster that fate has bestowed upon me is truly horrific. I thought that when I died in Midgard, I would never have to see this kind of scene of children killing each other again.

But in the end, before I had enough of the drama and battles in Valhalla, I found myself participating in this drama that was a capital punishment for a father.

Fate, are you testing me?

The problems left by a father must ultimately be solved by the father himself! "

When Odin muttered to this point, his brows suddenly became serious.

He raised his right hand and threw Gungnir heavily away.

Sensing Gungnir's attack, Hela smiled evilly and shouted excitedly.

"An incompetent father and a very stupid brother!
Even if you two are together, what can it do? I am standing on this land and have been favored by death. I will never be defeated by you!

What's more, up to this point, you two idiots haven't even developed any murderous intentions towards me!
I am the representative of death, and I can sense that you have no intention of sending me to death!
You have divine power but no will to match it. How can you, who are so naive, be qualified to bear the weight of the crown of Asgard!

Let a bunch of you guys who are doing nothing be the kings?

snort!
I still have to do it myself!!!"

She was seen flaunting her ambition while thrusting her hands fiercely towards the sea of ​​swords.

The sea tide did not split into two. Instead, with his movements, it increased by at least twice as much out of thin air!

The next moment, two equally surging seas of sword blades simultaneously faced Thor and Odin, and the weapons they each held!

If you want to defeat Hela, you have to be determined to kill her, use a blow far beyond her limit, completely break her core, and force her to reshape.

Once the situation falls into the current stalemate, the Nine Realms Goddess of Death, who shares the origin of Asgard with Odin and obtains the power of death, will be invincible!

For a moment, even though Gungnir crossed time and space, it went against the current and pierced Hela's waist and abdomen.

But Hela's ocean of swords still completely submerged Odin and Thor.

Looking at her father and brother who were becoming increasingly weaker in front of the Night Sky Sword and her own divine power, the smile on Hela's face became more perverse.

But before she could even have the last laugh.

suddenly!

A line of twinkling meteors appeared in the distant sky above Asgard!

"Meow Meow Meow!!!"

Thor shouted in surprise, then held the Thunder Axe in his left hand and freed his right hand to face Mjolnir.

Even though he held the battle axe in one hand, it was difficult to resist the torrent of Hela's sword blades, so that the Thunder Axe retreated again and again.

But he still used his left shoulder to hold back the battle axe that was constantly fighting against the sword blade, and his right hand was firmly aimed at the flying hammer!
In response to Thor's expectations, Thor's hammer crossed the sky in the blink of an eye and rushed towards the torrent of swords.

Looking at the hammer getting closer and closer, Thor almost shed tears.

He knew that whenever he felt despair, Mjolnir would always bring him hope and the dawn of victory!

With a heart full of emotion and love, Thor stretched out his right hand, his fingers getting closer and closer to the trajectory of the hammer...

Whoosh! ! !
Thor's hammer passed directly past Thor's hand, and Thor's expectant face instantly turned into a collapsed Ahegao!

At the same time, countless fragments of Thor's hammer followed the handle of the hammer, crossing the long river of sword blades and shooting straight at the octogenarian whose wounds were gradually healing.

Looking at the hammer that had broken into pieces, Odin finally smiled, then raised his left hand and grabbed the handle of Thor's hammer.

Ding-ding-ding-ding!

The fragments of Thor's hammer quickly returned to their original positions, and the cracked hammer was finally held in Odin's palm.

He just looked at the hammer with great emotion and laughed loudly with great heroism.

"Haha, how can a hammer be so inconvenient!
Mjolnir, long time no see, you are broken, but also stronger!!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Odin slammed his hammer hard, and endless thunder spread over his golden armor in the blink of an eye, dyeing his golden armor with a hint of silver light.

The next moment, Thor's hammer, which was unable to perfectly carry the power of the thunder rune due to its broken body, quickly transferred the escaped rune power into Odin's body.

Odin picked up Thor's hammer and swung it fiercely towards the sky full of swords.

The fragments of Thor's hammer rushed towards the torrent of sword blades like heavy rain, and countless fragments were connected in series to form an electric grid, which swept away the torrent in front of Odin in an instant!

Logically speaking, Odin should have a sense of satisfaction at this moment.

But of course when he looked at Thor at this moment, he immediately changed his mind.

Seeing the hammer rush into his father's hands, Thor trembled all over and exclaimed instinctively.

"Do not!!!"

As he exclaimed, the Thunder Axe trembled slightly...

Whoosh! ! !
I don’t know what went wrong with the Thunder Axe, but in any case, Thor was suddenly swept onto the Rainbow Bridge by the torrent of swords!
