Chapter 697: The Kings' Meeting, the Conspiracy Points to Asgard

Hela's righteous declaration of weakness did not lower the morale of the coalition forces. The people here were all veterans who had lived for countless years, and their will could not be shaken by a few words.

Hela's words were just to give Lao Fei and Xin De a way out. Fortunately for Lao Fei, although he was a big fool with a vulgar appearance, he was actually smarter than his appearance.

In order to achieve his goal, the Giant King can give up many things, especially for the hatred of Jotunheim and Asgard, even Laufey can temporarily give up his dignity.

But Xinde is different. Among all the emperors present, she has the least experience. Although she has also experienced thousands of years of rule, all of them are immortal and it is unknown how many years they can live.

This thousand-year reign sounds long, but in fact it is only a fraction of the reign of veteran kings like Lao Fei, the Angel Queen, and Hela.

Even people like Laofei and Hela were almost contemporaries of Odin, and they had also been fighting for who knows how many years. In their eyes, Sind was no different from a child, and a naughty one at that.

After inheriting Muspelheim, Sind also inherited her father's bad temper, that domineering mentality of being the boss and stabbing anyone she dislikes, just like Surtur who almost pierced through the Nine Realms.

However, Sind did not inherit her father's strength. You must know that Surtur in his prime was a character that even Odin had to fear. It can be said that he was the only one in the Nine Realms who could stand and fight against Odin.

Even Hela has to respect him. If Surtur is still the king of Muspelheim now, Hela would not have to gather a group of people to plot in secret. Wouldn't it be easier for a large group of people to follow Surtur and attack Asgard to seize Odin's throne?
But unfortunately, if Saltel were alive, he would not cooperate with them. This guy not only has top-level strength but is also a top-level superhero. He almost never cooperates with anyone and thinks about how to chop Odin alive every day.

You can say he is a reckless man, but just relying on his strength, Surtur has become Asgard's recognized strongest enemy, and an opponent that Odin had to use all his strength to defeat.

The battle between the two supreme beings really shocked the entire Nine Realms. The final result was that Saltir died and Odin was seriously injured and had to return to Asgard to recuperate.

At this time, some guys who had been coveting in the dark for a long time saw an opportunity. Odin was seriously injured. Doesn’t that mean that this is the weakest time for Asgard?

Then Malekith, who had just become the King of the Dark Elves, led his army to attack Asgard. At this time, Malekith was full of energy. As the most powerful wizard in the history of the Dark Elves, he believed that he could take down Asgard without Odin.

But then he was slapped in the face. The Asgard army led by Thor confronted Malekith's army head-on, and defeated the dark elves with a steady and cautious approach. Thor even almost captured Malekith alive.

This incident became Malekith's eternal pain, turning his initial simple idea of ​​wanting to invade Asgard into hatred for wanting to kill Thor.

In fact, it's not just him. Everyone present has a deep hatred for Asgard, otherwise these kings would not put aside their prejudices and cooperate with each other. You must know that apart from Asgard, there are constant frictions in other realms.

It's just that now a bigger goal is standing in front of them, attracting everyone's attention. If Asgard falls, these people will definitely fall into a fight because of the uneven distribution of spoils. Everyone present is also aware of this.

But before Asgard was destroyed, their alliance remained solid. "In exchange for the destruction of Asgard, Laufey is willing to forgive the offense of Surtur's daughter." Laufey spoke first, sounding as if he had forgiven Sindhu. It was more like a handshake than a peace treaty, a gesture of alms from a superior to an inferior.

Sind naturally heard it, and just as she was about to respond to Lao Fei, she was stopped by Hela's eyes. Here, strength is everything. Although Sind can rely on restraint to fight Lao Fei on equal terms for a short period of time, she has no advantage when facing Hela who has absolute strength.

She does not yet have the strength to ignore everything like her father Surtur. Her father can kill through the entire Nine Realms with just a sword without any help from anyone. This is what she dreams of.

Xinde believed that day was not far away, but now she had to be patient.

"Tsk!" Xinde said in dissatisfaction. "Well, why are you still standing there like an idiot? Let's get the meeting started!"

It was clearly because of her that the meeting was delayed. This childish temper was the reason why no one took her seriously.

"I've learned all of Surtur's temper, but I'm not even one-tenth as strong as him." The Angel Queen leaned back on her throne, her pure white wings draped lazily beside her. She had none of the angelic purity, but her gauze dress gave her a certain allure.

Hela ignored Sind and just floated in the air and said, "I just received a piece of news. Asgard has welcomed a new god of war."

When this news came out, although no one present showed any change in expression, everyone could feel that the atmosphere among this group of people had changed.

"Lao Fei heard the vibration coming from the uppermost layer just now and thought it was that old immortal Odin doing something. I didn't expect it was because of this."

Lao Fei sat on the ground again, blocking the cold wind that blew from time to time like a mountain. Although the cold wind in Niflheim was biting, it was not as cold as that in Jotunheim.

"That's bad news," Malekith said, his disgusting smile still plastered on his face. "Making Asgard without a God of War was the first step in our plan. We executed it perfectly, but now we're back to square one."

"Hey!"

Sind stuck the flaming giant sword into the ground and said irritably, "What should we do? If Asgard has the God of War, our numerical advantage may no longer exist."

An army led by a god of war is inherently much stronger than other armies. They are protected by the rules of this world, and the right time, place, and people will stand on their side without them realizing it.

This is also why they have to get rid of Tyr first, because the God of War is like a movable position buff. Not only the God of War himself, but anyone who stands on the same side with him will get a bonus, and this person who gets the bonus also includes Odin.
