Chapter 281: Hela - Single-Universe Level
Because Hela's life level had not reached the Single-Universe Level, she had been unable to advance to that level. This led her to believe that she hadn't absorbed enough energy, so she continued to absorb it there. Karl was startled and instantly appeared before her, interrupting her absorption. He then began to help her sort out the chaotic energy within her body. If it wasn't sorted out in time, something serious could happen. Hela opened her eyes and smiled when she saw Karl.
However, Karl looked at her angrily, which made Hela feel a little wronged, but she didn't dare to speak. She could only let Karl help her sort out the chaotic energy within her body. After a few hours, the energy in her body stabilized, and Karl pulled Hela into his arms.
"Are you stupid? Your life level hasn't reached that extent, so you can't advance to the Single-Universe Level. It's also my fault for not telling you. If I hadn't come to see you, something serious would have happened, do you know that?" Karl said to Hela, a little angry, but more heartbroken.
"I don't know... I just wanted to absorb quickly and then increase my strength... to help you. I didn't want to just watch like last time, so I..." Hela said after a moment of silence, feeling a little wronged, and then buried her head in Karl's arms. Although she hadn't shown it before, when heavenly blade seven was teleported away by Vast, she saw Karl's battle with the two Celestials through the light screen on the warship. She really wanted to go out and help Karl, but she knew her strength wasn't enough, and going out would only make her a burden to Karl.
"Alright, darling, it's okay. You... Sigh, alright, alright, I'll help you." Karl felt warmth in his heart after hearing Hela's words, and then stopped blaming Hela, instead gently patting her back to comfort her. Afterward, Karl prepared to use the power of the dog talisman to help Hela elevate her life level, because the dog talisman contained a life rule from another World, which Karl discovered when he advanced to the Single-Universe Level.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to guarantee the user's immortality and endless energy. This is also why Karl, even at the Single-Universe Level, can use the horse talisman and dog talisman to restore himself. Afterward, a faint golden light slowly flowed from Karl's hand into Hela's body. Although Karldid not control the life law within the dog talisman, he could maximize the use of the power of the rules within it! This is also why he could help Hela elevate her life level.
As the faint golden energy continuously injected into Hela's body, her aura grew stronger and stronger. After a full 12 hours, Hela's life level reached the Single-Universe Level. As for her soul, it had already reached that level when she merged with Karl. A terrifying Death energy erupted around Hela, dispelling the surrounding Shadow World's energy. Afterward, Hela's aura also reached the Single-Universe Level. The next moment, she pounced into Karl's arms and passionately kissed Karl.
Karl also embraced Hela and kissed her. At this moment, Hela's love for Karl reached its peak, even wishing that everything belonged to Karl, wanting Karl to possess all of her! The two kissed for a full 40 minutes before breaking apart, but Hela still stayed in Karl's arms, panting. Karl also quietly held Hela at this moment. The next moment, he took Hela and left the Shadow World. As for the Deathenergy she had absorbed before, it had already been assimilated when she advanced to the Single-Universe Level.
When the two appeared in the living room, Red Crystal floated over to Karl, extending her small hands, asking Karl to hold her. Karl immediately picked up Red Crystal. Dark Phoenix, on the other hand, looked at Hela with surprise, because she could feel that Hela's current strength was the same as hers. She hadn't expected Karl to be able to help her advance to the Single-Universe Level so quickly. After all, Dark Phoenix only needed to merge with the Phoenix shard, and didn't need to cultivate her strength herself.
Moreover, her upper limit is incredibly high. Because it was easy for her, she knows how difficult it is to advance to the Single-Universe Level, especially from the Heavenly Father Level to the Single-Universe Level. Over the years, wandering the Universe with Karl, they encountered a multitude of Heavenly Father Levels, but not a single Single-Universe Level besides the Celestials they met before. This indirectly indicates the scarcity of powerful individuals at the Single-Universe Level and the great difficulty of advancing from the Heavenly Father Level to the Single-Universe Level.
At the same time, a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes, because Hela had suddenly emerged, directly climbing from the last tier to the first tier, almost pushing her down. Now Karl dotes on her so much. Karl must have paid a huge price for Hela to advance from Heavenly Father Level to Single-Universe Level. Otherwise, how could she have advanced! That's not because Hela is bold and articulate. As the old saying goes, the squeaky wheel gets the grease. Dark Phoenix was also worried about Karl before, but she didn't say it out loud.
Although Karl could feel it, the two are ultimately different. Hela took direct action, so it must be said that Dark Phoenix is too young. How could she outplay Hela, this old demoness of several millennia? Perhaps Yan's age is first here, but Hela is definitely second! Not to mention she was imprisoned for a thousand years, and before that, when helping Odin conquer, she must have spent at least three or four hundred years, if not seven or eight hundred. So, she is the second oldest here.
Dealing with a young one like Dark Phoenix, she's practically got it in the bag. She used to lead armies in battle, so how could she not be able to win over a man? As for Yan's position, no one can shake it. Do you really think those seven thousand years were lived in vain? Perhaps she hasn't had a relationship, but even if she hasn't eaten pork, hasn't she seen a pig run? Plus, with her Angel's Eye in that Universe, she knew everything. Having opened it many times over seven thousand years, she knows countless tricks. A group of Helas and Dark Phoenixes might not even be enough for her to toy with.
So Yan had already got a hold of Karl. The top hunters always appear as prey. It seems like Karlconquered Yan, but in reality, Yan conquered Karl. And now, Yan has always held an important position in Karl's heart. At the same time, she disdains to compete with Hela and Dark Phoenix. That's why Yan seems more stoic among Karl's women, not fighting or vying for anything. But Karl always thinks of Yan in everything. Even Vast can analyze that Yan's position has always been first.
Afterward, Tony flew in from the hatch of heavenly blade seven. Karl, holding Red Crystal, just happened to see this scene. Then, the two leisurely walked towards that direction, preparing to see what kind of trouble Tony was planning to stir up...
Chapter 282: Beautiful Scenery, Picnic
"Hey, Karl, you wouldn't believe it, but I just had an intense and thrilling chase with the most advanced fighter jet of this Planet's civilization, and I won! Hahahahaha!" Tony said proudly to Karl after seeing him walk over with Red Crystal. His armor then transformed into liquid nanometal, becoming a watch on his wrist. Howard had once asked Tony why he still wore his armor when he could already fly, and his body's defense was even higher than the armor's.
Tony gave Howard a proud look and said it was a man's romance, which earned him a collective scoff from Howard, Maria, and Pepper.
"Alright, Tony, I saw it earlier. Someone in armor was being chased by a fighter jet. If you weren't so showy, I wouldn't have exposed you. Now, tell me why you're here." Karl looked at Tony's smug expression and said to him irritably, directly exposing him, then asked Tony curiously.
"Shit, you actually saw that. Alright, alright, alright. Pepper said to invite you all for a picnic. She and my mother found a place with a great view on this Planet. Mei and Raven are already there. Shall we go? Actually, I said we could just use comms, but she insisted I come personally. How's that for giving face?" Tony didn't expect Karl had seen it earlier. After three seconds of awkwardness, he slowly said to Karl.
"Okay, you go ahead, I'll be right there." Karl chuckled after hearing Tony's words, then nodded at Tonyand said. Tony then donned his romance once again and flew towards the Planet. Karl, meanwhile, carried Red Crystal and walked towards Hela and Dark Phoenix. Soon, Karl was holding Red Crystal, with Dark Phoenix and Hela beside him, followed by Peter and Pirot, and the Crystal held by Pirot.
As for Red Tank and Samuel, they had long since disappeared. Everyone else was with Tony's group. The warship was empty except for Yan, who was upgrading, and the unconscious La. The group slowly flew to the sky above the Planet, located Tony and the others, and flew over. Even if this Planet's civilization discovered them, they wouldn't be able to do anything. When Karl brought them to Tony, he found the scenery was indeed beautiful. They were on a mountainside.
Directly opposite was a vast sea and the setting sun, complemented by nearby mountains and green trees, making for a truly beautiful sight. However, upon arriving, Red Crystal ran out of Karl's arms and immediately went to Maria, gazing at Maria and Little Morgan in her arms with two bright red eyes. Little Morgan, seeing Red Crystal, also began to babble, wanting to break free from Maria's embrace. Maria, seeing this, let Red Crystal hold her granddaughter.
After Red Crystal took Little Morgan, she immediately soared into the sky, flying over the ocean with Little Morgan. The setting sun shone on them, creating a warm scene. She then continuously weaved through the mountains and trees, which greatly startled Maria and Howard, as Little Morgan was just an ordinary person, and even a slight accident could cause serious injury. Tony and Pepper, however, were not flustered at all. They trusted Red Crystal to protect Morgan.
How could a Red Crystal, almost Heavenly Father Level, not protect a baby? It was just the two elders being overly worried. Calling them elders might be inaccurate, as Howard and Maria looked, at most, middle-aged. This was due to the Kryptonian gene, which hadn't fully restored them to their youthful appearance but had made them significantly younger. Tony, helpless, pulled Howard and Karl to drink together. Karl, meanwhile, smiled as he looked in the direction of Red Crystal and Little Morgan.
On the other side, Mei, Raven, Helen Zhao, Yelena, and Natasha were preparing various foods. Pirot, with Crystal, ran to a nearby mountaintop and cuddled, whispering. Although everyone present could hear them, they didn't deliberately listen. After all, what was there to hear from two young lovers? Peter seemed a bit fed up with Pirot's prioritizing love over friendship, so he grabbed a bottle of beer and went to find Red Tank and Samuel.
"These days are truly wonderful. Beer, scenery, sunset, family, friends, delicious food—it couldn't be better." Tony brought Howard to sit next to Karl, took a sip of his drink, and sighed to the two, and what he said was true.
"Of course, it's rare for our two playboys to sit and drink with me. I'm truly honored. Coming from your mouth, Tony, I'm quite surprised. Shouldn't you be talking about yachts, sunsets, fine wine, bikinis, beautiful women, and passionate encounters?" Karl couldn't help but tease Tony after hearing his sigh, also including Howard. Both father and son were cut from the same cloth.
"Hahahahahahaha, it seems you have my old charm, Tony." Howard laughed after hearing Karl's teasing, then patted Tony's shoulder. Tony, with a black expression, looked at Karl and his father, then smiled and took a sip of his drink.
Soon, all the food was ready, and everyone gathered around. Peter also brought Red Tank and Samuel, who descended from the sky. Red Crystal, holding Little Morgan, landed directly on the table. Pirot also flew down from the nearby mountaintop with Crystal. Karl brought La, who had already woken up in his room. However, she was not wearing her revealing phoenix robe, but a true ancient-style phoenix robe, the kind worn for important occasions.
Karl wanted La to wear such high-status attire to serve him, which gave him a sense of satisfaction. All the clothes in La's room were of this kind, even many dragon robes, but all were women's styles. Even intimate apparel like Dudou (dudou) had dragon or phoenix embroidery, some even extremely transparent. She also had many ruler's outfits from her own Planet, with various styles created by Karl.
But they were mostly light gauze, transparent, and revealing, these were the most common. There were also many formal styles. La's daily task was to wear these clothes to serve Karl. If Karl was not satisfied, she would have to change into the next outfit. She also understood that she belonged to Master, so besides shame, she had no resistance...
Chapter 283: Yan - Single-Universe Level
Tony and the others were also very surprised to see a woman in phoenix attire appear. They originally thought she was Karl's new woman, so they didn't say much. Afterwards, everyone began to eat, and even Tetanus sat on Karl's side. Because it was a rectangular table, everyone didn't finish eating until late at night. Then everyone started packing up to return to the warship. Karl, however, was not in a hurry at all, taking out a reclining chair and slowly rocking in it. As for packing things, was it his turn?
Don't be silly, even Tony wouldn't dare ask Karl to pack things. Karl beckoned to Tetanus beside him, and Tetanus, wearing a phoenix robe, sat on Karl's lap, letting Karl hold her. Karl naturally held this plump soft body without ceremony. He even kneaded it, causing Tetanus's face to turn red. Dark Phoenix and Hela looked at each other and smiled after seeing this scene. Karl, smelling the fragrance of Tetanus's body, held her and lay on the reclining chair.
He could feel a soft body pressing against him, which was very comfortable, especially the chest area, where the sensation was even more obvious. Karl didn't let go of Tetanus until Tony and the others had finished packing and left. After Karl let go of Tetanus, she almost couldn't stand steadily; her legs had turned soft. She was teased by Karl every day, and before, she had even fainted after being toyed with by Dark Phoenix. It would be strange if her legs weren't soft. Afterwards, Karl gestured for Dark Phoenix to carry Tetanus and leave together.
Tetanus, seeing it was Dark Phoenix again, was a little flustered and dared not look at Dark Phoenix. Soon, everyone returned to the warship. Pirot took Red Crystal directly back to his room. This young man, after drinking a bit of wine, couldn't help but want to fool around. He didn't even care about Tetanus. As long as it didn't die, he wouldn't even look at it. Pirot was also like a lost soul, only caring about Red Crystal. Peter had complained to everyone about this several times, feeling as wronged as a little daughter-in-law, which made Karl and Mei and the others laugh and cry.
Afterwards, Mei and Raven were embraced by Karl and sat on the sofa. Natasha and Yelena also consciously walked behind Karl to massage him. At this moment, the living room was only left with Karl's women and Gamora. Red Crystal had run off to Tony's warship, and she was probably still fighting with Tony over Little Morgan. Karl knew without even thinking what the final outcome would be: Tony would be beaten up by Red Crystal and then submit, even if Tony wore two layers of armor.
He leaned over and kissed Raven, the blonde beauty next to him. Then Raven began to transform into various beauties and kiss Karl, and even Dark Phoenix, Hela, and Mei, who were present, were no exception. This made Dark Phoenix give Raven a roll of her eyes... A week passed quickly. Karlappeared alone in the laboratory, quietly looking at Yan, who was lying in the upgrade pod. Today was the day Yan would complete her upgrade and wake up. Two hours later, the energy liquid in the upgrade pod began to recede, and Yan slowly opened her eyes, just in time to see Karl standing outside the upgrade pod, quietly looking at her. Seeing this, Yan revealed a slight smile, and the upgrade pod began to slowly rise.
Soon, the hatch of the upgrade pod had risen. Yan walked out with her fair, slender long legs. After seeing Yan come out, Karl did not immediately check her strength. Instead, he immediately embraced Yan, who was wearing a white dress, and took a deep sniff of her fragrance. Yan also hugged Karl. Neither of them spoke as they embraced in the laboratory. It wasn't until nearly 30 minutes later that Karl lowered his head to look at Yan in his arms.
"You should be a Fifth Generation God Body now, right? Yan Yan." Karl lowered his head and kissed Yan on the forehead before slowly saying, but his hand was still around Yan's slender waist, seemingly not intending to let go of Yan.
"Yes, I've already upgraded to a Fifth Generation God Body. It's much stronger than the previous Fourth Generation God Body. Now I don't need to rely on a genetic engine; I can directly create things out of thin air, and so on. At the same time, my control over wormholes and space has become even stronger. I can help you." Yan nodded and then softly said to Karl, also telling Karl some of her abilities, and even directly stated that she could help him. She didn't say anything else.
This made Yan seem more formidable than Hela. Karl's love for Yan was naturally beyond question. After Yan said this, Karl would naturally use his love for her to fill in the other scenarios in his mind, and imagination was the most deadly. Unlike Hela's words, which already fixed a scenario. But Dark Phoenix was even worse; she didn't even tell Karl directly. So, looking at it this way, it really seemed that Yan's rank was higher. Hela and Dark Phoenix were still too young.
"Mm, it's alright." After Karl heard Yan's words, he hugged Yan tightly again, then softly said to Yan. The next moment, the two disappeared from the laboratory. They appeared in the living room, where Dark Phoenix and Hela were both present. Seeing Yan in Karl's arms, they understood where Karl had gone just now. Yan merely gave them a faint glance before leaning back into Karl's arms. As for Mei, Raven, and Helen Zhao, they were not even worth Yan's extra look.
It must be known that there is a distinction between the main wife and concubines here. Yan is undoubtedly the main wife. Although Mei was the first to follow Karl, she had wavered in her inner thoughts before. Yan even disdained her. Karl had also noticed this long ago, but he didn't know if Karlhad discovered the data transmission Yan did to Mei. The current Karl is a Single-Universe Level being. Yan's small actions before seemed undetectable, but perhaps that was only limited to Karl at that time.
At that time, Karl's strength had only reached the Pseudo-Singular Universe Level, so it was naturally impossible for him to notice. But now, as long as Karl looks at Mei, all her memories and secrets will be revealed before him. Perhaps Karl knows and doesn't care, and won't blame Yan for it. And Karl can also feel that the aura emanating from Yan has actually reached the Single-Universe Level, because Yan is different from them.
So, when she upgraded to a Fifth Generation God Body, her life level and soul level had already reached the Single-Universe Level. Even if they hadn't, Karl could help her achieve it. So now, including himself, Karl has five Single-Universe Level powerhouses. Besides the Celestials, no other organization in this Universe has so many Single-Universe Level beings. Perhaps there are, but Karl has no impression of them in his memory. Afterwards, the two heavenly blade seven slowly sailed away from this star system...
Chapter 284: Asgard Under Attack
Subsequently, the two heavenly blade seven began to leave this star system, heading towards a star system with more stars. Karl was preparing to collect stars once again to provide energy for the vast use of the Celestials' cosmic modification and conceptual definition. This would be Karl's ultimate weapon against the Celestials in the future! Moreover, Gamora still needed to be fed, so even now, the energy Karl possessed was not enough. Afterward, the two warships appeared in the wormhole space channel once again.
A few days later, Karl and his companions arrived at a large star system, containing approximately 20 to 40 billion planets, with at least half, or about 20 billion, being stars. Upon arrival, Karl emerged from the warship and began to collect the stars in this system with the vast. Of course, he did not forget to blockade the star system to prevent the Celestials from finding it. Yan, seeing this, also came to Karl's side and began to help him collect the stars.
At Karl and the vast's speed, it would have originally taken six hours to collect 20 billion stars. However, with Yan's addition, it was completed in four hours. After these stars entered the dimensional space, the vast began to cycle them using the infinite conceptual energy formula. Three days later, 20,000,000,000 stars were transformed into 20,000,000,000,000 units of star energy! This energy could allow the vast to operate at full power for a full seventy years!
"Karl! Come help me! Asgard is under attack! The enemy's strength is Single-Universe Level!!!" At this moment, Thor's voice suddenly rang out in Karl's earpiece, but after this one sentence, there was no sound. Then Karl and Yan returned to the warship, only to see Hela looking at Karl with some worry, because she had a connection with Asgard and could feel Asgard's energy rapidly depleting.
"It's alright, we'll go back now. Vast, long-range teleportation, target: Asgard! And notify Tony, Thor seems to be in trouble!!!" Karl, seeing Hela's worry, embraced her and comforted her, then immediately said to the vast, preparing to directly teleport the two heavenly blade seven back over a long distance, and also asked the vast to inform Tony about Thor's trouble, so he could prepare.
Hela, after hearing Karl's words, merely nodded in Karl's embrace without saying much. Soon, the surfaces of the two heavenly blade seven warships began to be covered by a blue energy. The next moment, the two warships vanished from this star system, along with 20 billion stars. At this moment, a great battle was raging in Asgard. Their enemies were the former Greek Gods, and their God King was Zeus!
Zeus was now Single-Universe Level, so he planned to occupy a place as his territory. Knowing that Odin of Asgard had already stepped down, he set his sights on Asgard. A few days ago, he led the Greek Gods and soldiers in a surprise attack on Asgard. Because Zeus did not act immediately, the battle lasted for several days, and even Thor had long since joined the battle against the Greek Gods.
This made Zeus even more disdainful of joining the battle with them; instead, he sat on his throne with his many wives, watching the battle on the battlefield. Thor was now almost Heavenly Father Level, but there were several Heavenly Father Level Greek Gods, which made Thor very difficult to deal with. Even Thor, who possessed the artifact stormbreaker, was no match for them. Even Loki was on the battlefield. Originally, he had no intention of participating; after all, the throne had nothing to do with him.
However, as soon as he saw Frigga wanting to fight, Loki immediately stopped her, scared. Thinking of the tragedy that almost happened before, Loki's back started to break out in cold sweat. If something like that were to happen again, he would regret it to death. And so, to prevent Frigga from fighting, Lokicould only step up himself. At this moment, Frigga looked worriedly at Loki and the others on the battlefield, while also praying for Karl and his companions to arrive quickly.
As long as Karl returned, they would be fine. With her eyesight, she could naturally see that the current Zeus was Single-Universe Level, but his aura was not as strong as Karl's when he became Single-Universe Level before. So Karl should be stronger than Zeus. Even Frigga couldn't imagine that Zeuscould break through to Single-Universe Level, but thinking so much now was futile; she could only pray for Karl and his companions to return quickly.
Boom ——————!
One of Zeus's sons, Hercules, was of Heavenly Father Level strength, and he was fighting Thor back and forth. Thor, by borrowing Asgard's power, barely reached Heavenly Father Level, and with the artifact stormbreaker, he was even gaining the upper hand. However, Hercules was not the only one on the field; other gods would always take advantage of Thor's inattention and ambush him from the side, causing Thor to constantly be on the defensive.
Swish ——————!
At this moment, the sky above Asgard suddenly darkened, and two massive warships appeared above Asgard. Seeing this scene, Thor showed a hint of a smile, and even Frigga and Loki breathed a sigh of relief. Not far away, Heimdall, clad in golden armor, also finally felt at ease. Zeus, seeing the two warships appear, lost his previous smile and stood up from his throne with a solemn expression. His wives, not knowing what was happening, looked at Zeus in confusion.
Zeus had already sensed several auras stronger than his own within these two warships, which meant the opponents were also Single-Universe Level, and there were several of them! Noticing the expressions of Thor and the others, he knew that the other party should be on Asgard's side. As the hatch slowly opened, Tony flew out with tens of thousands of iron man armor, and he himself landed next to Thor, helping him up from the ground. Thor hadn't expected Tony to be there either.
Tens of thousands of armor weapons were all aimed at the Greek Gods. Although they might not be able to harm these gods, their soldiers would probably die with one hit. Now, Tony's armor not only contained the new element arc reactors but also had star energy incorporated into it, which greatly enhanced the armor's combat power and increased its attack power. Before Thor could speak to Tony, the hatch of the other warship also slowly opened.
Karl, accompanied by Yan, Hela, Dark Phoenix, Gamora, Big Wanda, and others, emerged from within. The group walked directly through the air. After arriving above Thor and his companions, Karl and the others stopped, then sat down directly, and a golden throne appeared behind Karl. Karl's gaze then calmly looked at Zeus and the others...
Chapter 285: Powerless Zeus
Karl looked indifferently at Zeus, who was clad in golden armor, and the golden-haired beauties surrounding him. After seeing those women, Karl's thoughts gradually grew strange, because in his previous life, he remembered that greek mythology was particularly chaotic, mainly because Zeus was an old pervert who constantly flirted and even didn't spare his own daughters. And after his official wife found out, she directly… with her own son… Some sons even fought with Zeus… Karl didn't know if the Marvel version was like this.
However, Karl's impression of greek mythology wasn't very good. Furthermore, the Greek Gods were currently invading his friend Thor's country, and he had promised Odin he would look after Asgard, so Karl's gaze towards Zeus was not friendly.
"I heard you want to invade Asgard? What, your guts have grown quite a bit after advancing to Single-Universe Level?" Karl said slowly, looking at Zeus with an unfriendly expression. At the same time, his own Single-Universe Level aura was released. Even Gamora, Yan, Dark Phoenix, and Hela began to release their auras. The combined auras of five Single-Universe Level beings pressed towards Zeus, instantly forcing his throne from space down to the ground.
Even if he unleashed his own aura, it was difficult to resist, only barely allowing him to fall less awkwardly. The women beside him looked in terror at Karl and the others seated on the thrones in the sky. They hadn't expected the other side to have five Single-Universe Level powerhouses, and seemingly friends of Asgard! At this, their faces turned ugly, and even Zeus didn't know what to say. Frigga's eyes flashed with disbelief after sensing the auras.
Because she also discovered that Karl's side had five Single-Universe Level beings, and even her own daughter's aura had reached Single-Universe Level. After that, her surprise in her eyes was no longer concealed when she looked at Hela, because Hela seemed to be no longer… which meant Hela had become Karl's woman! Frigga was stunned. When did Hela become so powerful? It must have been because of Karl that Hela was able to break through to Single-Universe Level. She felt happy for Hela.
Thinking of Hela becoming Karl's woman, the relationship between Asgard and Karl became even closer. Frigga also showed a slight smile, and even her gaze towards Karl became benevolent. She even started thinking about what names to give Karl and Hela's future children, followed by all sorts of imaginings. As for the still-invading Greek Gods, Frigga no longer cared at all. With the relationship between Karl and Hela, was there still anything to worry about?
"I didn't expect you to appear here. I didn't expect Odin to find a protector for Asgard even after his death." Zeus said, looking at Karl with a solemn expression. Even though he might be older than Karl, he still used 'you' respectfully, indicating Karl's superiority. This was because he had previously been one of the observers who saw Karl kill several Celestial members in the universe. He never expected the other party to be connected to Asgard, and his heart was filled with regret and bitterness.
"It seems you know me, but that's not a reason for me to let you go. Three rounds, if you win one, I'll let you go. The strength must be above Heavenly Father Level." Karl looked at Zeus with a bit of surprise. He hadn't expected him to recognize him. It must have been during the previous battle with the Celestials; he himself had sensed many gazes, but he hadn't paid attention. After the Celestial members were killed by him, those gazes disappeared.
As for Karl saying he would let them go if they won one round, that was, of course, false. Not a single one of the Greek Gods would be able to leave the Asgardian Realm today, not even the Single-Universe Level Zeus. If he exposed his whereabouts, causing the Celestials to threaten Asgard to force him to appear, it wouldn't be fun. When Karl entered Asgard, he had already had Hao Han blockade the entire Asgardian Realm. No one could detect anything here, not even a Single-Universe Level being.
Naturally, Super Single-Body Universe Level and Multiverse Level were not restricted, but it was unlikely that such powerful Celestial members would be sent to pursue him. Otherwise, Karl would have to take the entire Asgardian Realm into the Shadow World and stay there. Without Multiverse Level strength, he probably wouldn't come out. The reason Karl said this was mainly because he had been a bit bored recently, and wanted to indulge in a bit of mischief, and incidentally test the strength of his companions.
"Alright, then we'll listen to you." Zeus sighed and said after hearing Karl's words. He naturally knew this was an impossible task, but he couldn't refuse. He had already discovered that his mental power could no longer extend beyond the Asgardian Realm. He knew that he and his people were doomed, so he could only agree, while also looking for an opportunity to see if he could send his descendants out of the Asgardian Realm, otherwise, his divine lineage would probably be wiped out this time.
Then the Greek Gods walked towards Zeus. Karl also descended next to Thor and the others. The Greek Gods all pleaded with Zeus, wanting to be the first to fight. Zeus looked at the gods who were eager to fight, his heart also full of bitterness and regret. In his opinion, this was going to their deaths, yet they were still vying to go. He couldn't even tell them. He, the King of Gods, was truly stifled. Even at Single-Universe Level, he couldn't dictate the rules.
"Hey Karl, how about I go first? Let them see how powerful my armor is! And you're not really planning to let them go if they win, are you?" Tony said excitedly to Karl after he and the others came down. His tone then became serious, and also a little worried.
"You're overthinking it. You haven't even reached Sub-Heavenly Father Level yet, and you want to wear your armor to fight a Heavenly Father Level being. Why don't you just fly into space? Then Little Morgan won't have a dad, how pitiful. Only Thor and I will… Hahahahahahaha! Of course not, they won't be able to leave the Asgardian Realm regardless of winning or losing. Zeus himself should know that I had already blockaded the entire Asgardian Realm when I entered." Karl said, pouting after hearing Tony's words, even directly teasing Tony. As for Tony's last question, Karl directly told him his thoughts.
Tony and Thor both breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. They had thought Karl was really going to let the Greek Gods go. But after hearing Karl's teasing, Tony rolled his eyes at Karl in annoyance, which made Karl and Thor laugh heartily…
Chapter 286: Big Wanda VS Heracles
Afterward, everyone began to discuss who to send out from their side. Karl thought about the people around him; it seemed only Big Wanda and Red Crystal were at the Heavenly Father Level, and Red Crystal had only recently broken through to the Heavenly Father Level. Thor's side was quite dismal; it was just him. Even Loki was only barely Sub-Heavenly Father Level. When everyone looked at him, Loki awkwardly waved at them, which, combined with his current appearance, was quite comical.
"Let Big Wanda fight the first match, Thor the second, and the third match will be Single-Universe Level. Pick one from Gamora, Yan, Dark Phoenix, Hela. That's settled!" Karl said to everyone after some thought. Big Wanda nodded upon hearing Karl's words. She herself wanted to see her current strength. Since following Karl, she hadn't really made a move. Although she knew her strength was growing, she didn't truly know how strong she was.
Zeus, on the other hand, sent out Heracles, who was also a Heavenly Father Level powerhouse. He had previously fought Thor to a standstill. Karl gave Zeus an unexpected glance but didn't say much. Big Wanda and Heracles came to the open space between the two lineups. After Karl nodded to an Asgardian soldier in the distance, the soldier swung a large hammer and struck the nearby great bell.
Clang—!
Just as the sound of the great bell rang out, Big Wanda and Heracles of Greece instantly charged forward. The current Big Wanda was no longer a squishy mage; her physique was probably not far off from Heracles. Heracles, seeing that his opponent actually wanted to engage in close combat with him, revealed a disdainful smile. As he charged towards her, he seized an opportune moment to clench his right fist and unleash a full-power strike towards Big Wanda.
The purple divine power around him surged with his attack. Little Wanda and Pirot on Karl's side weren't very clear about Big Wanda's strength and were so scared they covered their eyes. Big Wanda, watching the incoming fist, calmly activated her Chaos Magic. Just as the fist was about to hit her, she also clenched her right fist and punched out with Chaos Magic. The two fists, imbued with divine power and magic, collided.
Boom—!
Heracles and Big Wanda were incredulous after their fists clashed; the opponent's strength was actually on par with his! He thought in disbelief, "I wasn't using my full strength just now; she must have been!" Big Wanda calmly looked at Heracles opposite her. The explosion aftermath from their colliding attacks, however, destroyed the nearby Asgardian buildings. Karl and Zeus both conjured an energy defense in front of their respective groups.
Zeus was constantly trying to find a way to send his offspring away. He understood that he couldn't leave. Five Single-Universe Level beings, and one of them had even killed several Celestial members; he couldn't possibly be their opponent. He could only preserve the lineage or spread news of the opponent to let the Celestials deal with them. Unfortunately, Karl had sealed off the entire Asgardian Realm after arriving, so Zeus couldn't transmit any messages.
Even the Supreme Intelligence, who had initially wanted to escape by transforming into a data consciousness, was locked up in a small dark room by Vast. You must know that it had even tried to self-destruct to escape, yet it was still caught by Vast. On the other side, Heracles's purple divine power continuously increased around him as he charged towards Big Wanda. The divine energy condensed in his fists was even more terrifying. Big Wanda looked at her opponent indifferently, Chaos Magicswirling around her, and two magic formations rotating in her hands.
Then, a magic formation larger than herself appeared in front of her. Terrifying red lightning erupted from within the magic formation, charging towards Heracles. Big Wanda was using Kamar-Taj's magic. As for why she knew it, of course, Karl had taught her personally, meaning he taught her hand-in-hand. It was then that Big Wanda began to develop feelings for Karl, but even now, she didn't dare to take it a step further. Heracles, seeing the terrifying red lightning heading his way…
Boom—!
…immediately unleashed the purple divine power condensed in his fist. The two attacks collided once again, but Heracles was sent flying out shortly after, because although his attack had resisted Big Wanda's magic for a while, the red lightning was continuous. So, in the collision of the two attacks, Heracles was at a disadvantage, and he was then struck by the red lightning and flew backward. Big Wanda immediately changed the magic formation in her hands.
The large magic formation in front of her also disappeared, but Big Wanda did not stop casting magic. Instead, the two magic formations in her hands transformed again, and another magic formation appeared in the air, from which spatial power surged out. Meanwhile, Heracles, after getting up from the ground, retrieved his weapon from somewhere—an indestructible golden scepter! Purple divine power began to adhere to the golden scepter, and then he swung it towards Big Wanda's direction!
Boom—!
After a sonic boom, a beam of purple divine energy attack rushed towards Big Wanda's direction. Big Wanda, still unhurriedly casting her magic, had the large magic formation in the air suddenly open a crack. Energy blades imbued with spatial power rushed out from within, shooting towards Heracles's direction. On their way, they easily shattered his attack, and at the same time, the space at that location was also cut open by the spatial blades.
Boom—!
Heracles, seeing this, began to continuously use his golden scepter to unleash purple energy attacks against the spatial blades. Even so, attacks still rushed towards Heracles, because Big Wanda's magic this time was still a continuous attack. Spatial blades continuously surged out from the crack in the large magic formation in front of her, shooting towards Heracles. Heracles, seeing the spatial blades already in front of him, swung his golden scepter and shattered them, but the surrounding space was also cut open by the spatial blades, so he could only constantly change his position.
Boom—!
Finally, Heracles seemed unable to tolerate these spatial blades anymore. His aura surged once again, and even his body swelled by a circle. He swung his golden scepter and charged towards Big Wanda's direction, constantly dodging the spatial blades' attacks. After arriving in front of the large magic formation, he smashed it down fiercely, and the large magic formation releasing spatial blades was destroyed. Big Wanda also disappeared from her previous position, reappearing in the air, and two lasers shot out from her eyes, charging towards Heracles.
Boom—!
Chapter 287: Shameless Thor
Heracles, unable to dodge, was hit by two red lasers from Big Wanda's eyes, and the impact of the lasers knocked him to the ground. Heracles continuously used his Golden Scepter to block, finally managing to stand up. At this moment, many parts of his body were scorched, and with the dirt and dust on him, Heracles looked particularly disheveled. This made the Greek Gods feel very displeased and embarrassed, as they didn't expect Heracles' first battle to turn out like this.
However, they also didn't know that their own fate might not be much better than Heracles'. The next moment, Heracles seized the opportunity to dodge a laser in an instant, then bent his legs and pushed off forcefully, flying into the air. He held the Golden Scepter with both hands above his head and smashed it down fiercely at Big Wanda in the air. By the time Big Wanda stopped using Cyclops, the attack had already reached her, and she could only block with her arm.
Boom!
Big Wanda's arm was struck by Heracles' full-force Golden Scepter, sending her entire body crashing to the ground. Little Wanda and Pirot, on Karl's side, looked even more worried, their eyes involuntarily turning to Karl, who sat on the throne. But Karl remained unmoved, because Big Wanda was not injured. Not to mention her steel body, with Chaos Magic protecting her, she wasn't that fragile.
Meanwhile, the Greek Gods erupted in cheers. Karl gave them a cold smirk before looking towards Big Wanda and Heracles. The struck Big Wanda burst out from underground, the Chaos Magic surrounding her becoming even more intense, because she was now angry. He actually made her lose face in front of Karl! Red light flickered in Big Wanda's eyes, and she stopped using other magic, directly attacking Heracles with Chaos Magic.
Boom!
The attacks within it even carried the ability to modify. After a few rounds, Heracles' Golden Scepter had disappeared, and he looked at Big Wanda with a grave expression. He couldn't get close to Big Wandaat all now, because she was completely a mobile fort, attacking Heracles frantically. The red energy of Chaos Magic continuously poured down on Heracles, forcing him into a passive defense.
Boom!
Finally, Big Wanda condensed a huge red energy to control Heracles, then shot two red lasers from her eyes. The energy she used to control Heracles was Chaos Magic, constantly modifying the divine power he tried to use for defense, leaving him only able to resist Big Wanda's Cyclops attack with his bare flesh. But it wasn't long before he couldn't hold on anymore, and then Big Wanda's Chaos Magicflashed once.
Boom!
Heracles' head was directly blown apart by the two red lasers, and even his physical body began to turn to ash and dissipate. As for his soul, it goes without saying that it had long been defined as nothing by Big Wanda's reality modification. So, when Heracles' head was blown apart by Big Wanda, he was already completely dead, having disappeared from this universe, even his soul was gone. Afterwards, Big Wanda flew towards Karl and the others, directly standing next to Little Wanda.
Zeus's eyes flashed with surprise at this scene, as he felt Heracles' soul had vanished. The other Greek Gods, in turn, angrily glared in the direction of Karl and the others, simultaneously requesting to fight Zeus again. Karl, however, glanced at Big Wanda, and only after confirming she was unharmed did he avert his gaze. Soon, it would be Thor's turn, so everyone, including Karl, looked towards Thor.
"Hey, you guys actually don't believe me! And you, my dear sister, why don't you believe your brother? I will definitely win, just watch!" Thor said to everyone and Hela with a Death-seeking expression. This was mainly because Frigga had told Thor that Hela was already Single-Universe Level and was Karl's woman. Then Thor started to fawn over Hela, being as shameless as possible, which even surprised Karl.
The main reason was that Thor was suffering. If Zeus hadn't stepped in to deal with them before, Asgard would have been gone long ago. So, to cling to a powerful figure, face didn't matter. After all, this was his own sister. Karl was just a friend and brother, but a sister was different – she was family! Hela was speechless at Thor's appearance. Loki, in a spot no one could see, pulled out an Earth camera and started taking pictures of Thor's current state.
He was even trying to hold back laughter. After that, Thor was kicked away by Hela, but he shamelessly ran back, asking Hela if she was hungry or thirsty. Karl and Tony looked at Thor in disbelief; did he actually have the potential to be a sycophant? Even Frigga couldn't bear it anymore and gave him a smack on the head, which barely brought him back to normal. But Thor, this child, was still suffering. After being king for a few years, he realized how tiring it was.
He had to deal with all sorts of things every day, more tiring than a nine-to-five job, and he couldn't just quit. If he snuck off to drink, Frigga would drag him back. But deep down, he also wanted to protect the people and country of Asgard. Since his own strength wasn't enough, he could only rely on his sister. What was a little loss of face? If their home was gone, what was the point of having face?
"OKOK, I believe you, I believe you. Now go with your two hammers." Tony couldn't help but say after seeing Thor's appearance, urging him to go quickly with an expression that said, 'I really can't take it anymore.' Even Pepper, who came down with them, couldn't help but laugh. Howard and Maria's gaze, however, was never on the battlefield, but on the sky of Asgard, because Red Crystal was holding Little Morgan and flying there to sit on her self-made red cloud to watch.
This made Howard and Maria afraid that the cloud might develop a hole, and their darlinggranddaughter would fall out. Little Morgan, however, was happily bouncing and jumping on the red cloud, even wanting to hold Red Crystal's small hand. Even Karl couldn't understand why Red Crystal, an Innate Deity, liked to play with Little Morgan. Before, she even took Little Morgan to her own planet, which caused Howard and Maria to search with two warships but couldn't find them.
Finally, Tony asked Karl to investigate, and after checking both warships and finding nothing, they discovered the two of them in the dimensional space of the planet where Red Crystal was. At that time, Little Morgan was even holding two small energy beasts...
Chapter 288: Thor VS Ares
After that, Howard and Maria's eyes were fixed on Red Crystal whenever she appeared.
Previously, when they knew Red Crystal was a Celestial God, they were quite willing for her to be close to Little Morgan.
But then they realized she was not one to stay put.
Tony and Pepper, however, didn't really care.
Tony, like Karl, had indeed been beaten up by Red Crystal, with Little Morgan clapping beside them, making Pepper clutch her stomach and laugh on the sofa.
It was only after learning about the power hierarchy through the vast knowledge that he and Pepperrealized how strong Red Crystal was.
With her strength, protecting Little Morgan from harm was incredibly simple.
So Tony and Pepper stopped worrying.
The two began their warship honeymoon mode, using the warship's technology to simulate various beautiful sceneries, sunshine, beaches, red wine, candles, and all sorts of romantic things; they experienced them all, which Howard and Maria complained about incessantly.
Soon, the Greek Gods also selected their opponent for the second match: Ares, the God of War!
Thor, wearing his armor and wielding mjolnir and stormbreaker, walked towards Ares.
After both entered the arena, Karl looked at the direction where the bell had just rung and found that the Asgardian soldier was no longer there.
Then, he lightly tapped the great bell with his psychic energy.
Clang ——————!
After the bell rang, Thor brandished mjolnir and charged towards Ares.
Ares, not to be outdone, raised his flaming spear and rushed towards Thor.
Dark red energy, filled with bloodlust, gore, and malevolence, began to surge around his body.
The next moment, Thor's mjolnir flew towards him, and Thor also raised stormbreaker, releasing his lightning towards Ares.
Crack ——————!
The blue lightning instantly reached Ares's front.
He didn't even intend to dodge, directly enduring the lightning attack and charging towards Thor.
After a sidestep to avoid the flying mjolnir, he hurled his flaming spear fiercely at Thor, with dark red energy attached to it, rushing towards Thor's position.
Thor hadn't expected his opponent to be able to advance while enduring his lightning.
He also dodged mjolnir and even attacked him, which made Thor's expression gradually turn serious.
Seeing the spear, imbued with a terrifying dark red energy, hurtling towards him, Thor took a step back with his right foot, his eyes turning golden.
He gripped stormbreaker with both hands, aimed it at the flaming spear, and unleashed a powerful strike, his divine power attached to stormbreaker, along with its inherent thunderous might.
Boom ——————!
The two weapons on the battlefield, each carrying their master's terrifying energy and attack, collided.
An explosion occurred instantly, affecting the entire battlefield, with blue lightning and dark red energy everywhere.
After the collision, both weapons rebounded.
The impact, centered on the point of collision, leveled everything around it, almost piercing through the ground!
Whoosh ——————!
The next moment, both recalled their weapons and quickly approached each other, starting close combat with weapons in hand.
Thor used mjolnir to interfere while using stormbreaker as his main weapon to fight Ares.
The two fought back and forth, locked in a fierce battle, but Thor could feel the pressure his opponent was exerting, causing Thor to be on the defensive from the start, with Ares practically dominating him.
Boom ——————!
Clang ——————!
Even with Thor leveraging Asgard's power, it was the same.
Every attack from both carried their respective energies.
Each time Thor swung stormbreaker, it would resonate with the lightning in the sky, and lightning bolts would directly strike Ares.
However, Ares, while using his flaming spear to block Thor's lightning, also absorbed it into his flaming spear, transforming it into his own energy to attack Thor.
Seeing this, Thor could only abandon using lightning to attack Ares and instead fought Ares with stormbreaker.
He even stopped using mjolnir, focusing solely on attacking with stormbreaker.
Although Thor had thousands of years of combat experience, Ares was no less experienced.
It was difficult for them to determine a winner in a short time.
Ares's flaming spear attacked Thor with great speed and ferocity.
Even though stormbreaker was an offensive weapon, Thor could only passively defend.
Clang ——————!
Thump ——————!
The main reason was Ares's agility.
As soon as Thor showed a weakness, Ares would seize the opportunity to attack Thor, leaving Thor no chance to counter.
His spear, like a venomous snake, fiercely and flexibly launched continuous attacks at him.
Their battle left the battlefield riddled with craters.
Meanwhile, Frigga on Karl's side was starting to worry about Thor.
At this moment, Ares once again seized an opportunity and directly plunged his flaming spear into Thor's body.
Splat ——————!
Furthermore, the flaming spear had barbs, so the next moment, Ares quickly pulled the spear out, causing secondary damage to Thor.
Blood began to flow from Thor's wound, and something seemed to be affecting Thor.
All the Single-Universe Level beings present saw a dark red energy entering Thor's body.
Karl, seeing this, had no intention of intervening; as long as there was no life-threatening danger, Karl would not act, otherwise, it would break the rules.
After all, Zeus didn't say anything when Big Wanda eliminated Heracles's soul.
Even if they were destined to die, Karl didn't want to do something that would make him look bad now.
Besides, Thor might not even be in trouble yet.
Inside the arena, Thor clutched his wound with one hand, sweat already beading on his forehead.
He also felt an energy not his own destroying his body from within.
Then Thor slowly closed his eyes.
He unleashed his ultimate move, which was 'Thinking of Dad!'
After all, in the movies, Thor would erupt after thinking of Odin a few times.
This time was no different.
Golden energy began to flow over Thor's body, and golden lightning continuously flashed.
His aura also ascended a stage.
At this moment, Thor was already a Heavenly Father Level powerhouse, and he achieved this without relying on Asgard's power; it was his own inherent strength.
Boom ——————!
Chapter 289: The Unlucky Ares
All the debris caused by the attack was blown away by Thor's renewed surge of power. stormbreakerwas slowly gripped by Thor, who then turned to look at Ares. Ares, seeing Thor's renewed burst of power and the increase in his aura, as well as his direct entry into the Heavenly Father Level stage, was very displeased. It seemed he was merely a sparring partner for Thor, and he was the God of War!
Boom——————!
Thor transformed into a golden lightning bolt and charged at Ares. Ares, enraged, also shot towards Thor. Their weapons clashed once again, but this time, Thor was able to fight Ares to a standstill. Huge energy ripples spread outwards from them like a ripple, but Karl and Zeus resolved them with a wave of their hands. This time, Thor began to continuously attack Ares.
Even in close combat, Thor attacked Ares with golden lightning, using various moves like chopping, hacking, smashing, dicing, and sweeping. Ares, facing such fierce attacks, could only continuously dodge and look for opportunities to strike Thor. But this time, even if he found an opening to thrust his spear, he would be attacked by Thor's thunder power. Ares's spear was conductive, and Heavenly Father Level lightning could naturally injure Ares. Now, his hands were already starting to tingle.
Swish——————!
Ares imbued his flaming spear with his divine power and attacked Thor, continuously mobilizing the divine energy within him, preparing to launch a large-scale attack. Thor, seeing this, merely blocked his spear attack and then began to gather his own divine energy, having no intention of interrupting his opponent. What Thor wanted was a head-on clash; he wasn't backing down, he was going to fight hard! As Thor's energy began to mobilize...
Even the ground began to emit golden energy towards Thor. He was the King of Asgard and would naturally receive help from Asgard. Even divine energy would be more drawn to Thor. Because the energy within Ares was too violent and evil, it took him much longer to absorb and convert energy from the outside world than to simply draw upon his internal energy. At this moment, a phantom image of Ares began to appear behind him.
His aura grew stronger and stronger. Soon, the phantom's hand held a flaming spear identical to the one in his hand, which he fiercely hurled towards Thor. The sky above Thor's position was already covered in dark clouds, and golden lightning continuously descended from within. Watching Areslaunch his attack, Thor took a step back with his right foot, gripped stormbreaker tightly in his right hand, and threw it forcefully at the incoming attack.
stormbreaker began to spin rapidly in the air, surrounded by constantly flashing golden lightning. In no time, the two attacks collided. Ares's attack was quickly shattered by stormbreaker, which then flew straight towards the phantom. Ares had already moved away from beneath the phantom; when Thor threw stormbreaker, he rushed towards Thor in his physical form, intending to severely wound him while he was unarmed.
Bang——————!
But he forgot that Thor had initially fought him with both a hammer and an axe. Now he had only thrown the axe; the hammer was still not far away. Seeing Ares charge, Thor extended a hand, and mjolnir flew into it. He unleashed a full-power blow at the front end of the incoming flaming spear. Ares never expected his opponent to have another weapon, and the flaming spear, struck by mjolnir, directly pierced through Ares's own body from the other end.
Thor, while recalling his stormbreaker, used mjolnir to summon lightning and continue attacking Ares. He wanted to strike while he was down, to finish him off! mjolnir, carrying lightning, was thrown by Thor at Ares. Ares had just pulled out the flaming spear, but the next moment, the other end was struck by mjolnir again. The flaming spear shifted its position slightly and then pierced Ares's body once more.
Originally, even Thor's mjolnir would have difficulty injuring Ares, but the flaming spear was his own divine artifact, imbued with his own divine power, aura, and soul imprint, so it could naturally harm him. The unlucky Ares was twice impaled by his own weapon. However, the next second, stormbreaker had already returned to Thor's hand, and mjolnir also began to fly back. Ares, having learned his lesson, began to pull it out from behind.
Karl and the others all burst into laughter watching this scene, with the tender voices of Red Crystaland Little Morgan from above being the most distinct and, to Ares's ears, the most grating. Ares glared fiercely at the source of the sound, but the next moment, a terrifying pressure slammed directly onto him, instantly pinning him to the ground. This oppressive force came and went quickly. Zeus, seeing this, could only sigh.
When Ares stood up again, his entire body was covered in dark red blood. He looked at Thor with hatred. He dared not look towards Karl's side; that last strike had made him feel the aura of Death. Unable to offend Karl, he could only attribute everything to Thor. Then, dark red divine energy began to appear around his body, swirling around him. Soon, his entire body was enveloped by the swirling dark red divine energy.
Thor didn't know what he was going to do, but he secretly began to gather his own divine energy. stormbreaker, moreover, began to emit golden lightning. The range of the dark red divine energy swirling around Ares's position began to expand and slowly rise. Soon it was almost ten meters high. The next moment, a red-skinned monster appeared before everyone. Karl felt the power of the Hell Dimension, specifically Mephisto, within it. It seemed Ares must have made a deal with Mephisto.
As soon as it appeared, it launched its fiercest attack directly at Thor, firing an energy blast from its mouth towards Thor. But this left Karl a bit confused, because Ares didn't have much energy left at all. Why was he still using energy so recklessly? From Karl's understanding, he was completely strong on the outside but hollow within. Sure enough, after he finished spitting out that attack, he quickly reverted to his original form.
Karl couldn't help but laugh at this. He had never seen anyone make a deal with Mephisto without getting scammed. Thor, seeing this, unhesitatingly threw stormbreaker at Ares once again...
Chapter 290: Hela VS Zeus
Boom— — — — — — !
Ares was utterly powerless to defend or dodge the golden lightning axe rushing towards him, as he had very little energy left in his body.
His hatred for Mephisto reached its peak, but he would never see him again, because Mephisto had long been dealt with by Karl, and he too was about to die by this axe.
Perhaps they would meet as they flowed towards Death; Ares could only close his eyes.
Then, stormbreaker directly split him in half, but no corpse or blood appeared; instead, he was disintegrated by the energy and lightning carried by stormbreaker.
The moment Ares died, Zeus also made his move, sending out his youngest son.
Just as he thought he had succeeded, a vast voice echoed in Karl's ears.
Karl knew that old fellow Zeus wouldn't willingly wait for Death, but he hadn't expected him to plan on sending out a spark of life.
He opened a channel from a dimension to reality through his soul, then brought his son into the dimensional layer, and sent his son out through that channel.
As for whose child this son was, who knew? After all, in his early years, he often descended to the mortal realm and had children with young women, creating many demigods.
However, the child sent out by Zeus had not actually left the Asgardian Realm at all; he was merely at its edge.
That was a scene simulated by the vastness, causing Zeus to believe it was the outside world.
Fearing Karl's detection, he didn't investigate carefully, and then his child was locked in a dark room by the vastness.
At this moment, Thor was walking towards Karl and the others, carrying his stormbreaker in his right hand and mjolnir in his left, with an expression like he had won a battle, which earned him a roll of the eyes from Tony and Karl.
Frigga, however, looked at Thor with concern, checking if he was injured, and even pulled him directly to her side to examine him.
"Who's going for the next round?" Karl asked Gamora, Yan, Dark Phoenix, and Hela after Thor returned, because the next round was the final one, a Single-Universe Level battle, so only the four of them would go.
Karl himself wouldn't make a move; he was pondering something, but he was a bit hesitant...
"I'll go; after all, this is my home." After exchanging glances, Hela said to Karl, giving them a reason they couldn't refute, as this truly was Hela's home.
Frigga, Thor, and Loki also looked at Hela with some surprise, because Hela had been very resistant to Asgard before, and had always been unwilling to be close to Frigga, so they hadn't expected Hela to step forward.
"Good, use your full power if you can; it doesn't matter if you can't win, I'm here." Karl said gently after hearing Hela's words and pulling her onto his lap.
Hela nodded shyly without speaking, because Frigga was her mother after all... and now Karl was holding her in front of her mother... even though she had lived for thousands of years, she would still feel embarrassed.
Crack— — — — — — !
The next moment, a small magic formation appeared in Karl's hand, and then the entire space began to invert.
Soon, everyone entered the Mirror Dimension.
If two Single-Universe Level powerhouses were to fight in Asgard, Asgard would be torn apart by the two of them before a winner was decided.
So Karl brought everyone into the Mirror Dimension.
Zeus looked at Karl with even greater solemnity after seeing this scene; he hadn't even sensed when the other party had used his ability.
This showed how strong Karl's power was.
Karl was also looking in the direction of Zeus and the others, but he wasn't looking at Zeus, but at Heraand the others beside him, while simultaneously pondering something.
Hela then left Karl's embrace and walked forward.
She disappeared from everyone's sight, taking ten meters with each step.
Zeus on the opposite side sighed when he saw that a Single-Universe Level being had appeared; this scenario had finally arrived.
He disappeared from his throne with his lightning, and the next moment, he appeared opposite Hela.
This time, both of them tacitly began to fight directly.
Their battle was even more terrifying than the previous two.
The lightning in Zeus's hand was described in the movie timeline as being able to destroy the universe, though it's unknown if that's true.
Hela's power of Death had long since increased by countless times.
Both of them tentatively struck a blow.
Boom— — — — — — !
The aftershocks of the attack shattered the spatial barrier within the Mirror Dimension, but it repaired itself in an instant.
The next moment, the two transformed into a golden and a black blur, colliding wildly.
Except for the Single-Universe Level beings present who could clearly see their battle, everyone else could only see two lights colliding furiously.
Currently, it was still Hela suppressing Zeus, but it couldn't be said entirely like that, because Zeus had been defending and hadn't attacked yet.
Zeus, holding the aegis, suffered no damage from Hela's power of Death attacks.
He was also constantly analyzing Hela's strength, to see if there was a chance to capture her and threaten Karl, but this probability was very small, after all, even if Hela's strength was inferior to Zeus, both were Single-Universe Level, so she wouldn't be easy to catch.
Hela's expression became a bit grave when she saw this; she had already realized that her attacks could not harm the opponent.
Whoosh— — — — — — !
Then, after attacking Zeus once more, Hela floated in the air, her hands clasped in front of her chest, slowly pulling them apart.
Between her open palms, a pitch-black long sword slowly appeared, from which a terrifying aura of Death emanated, and even vengeful spirits could be seen circling around the blade.
This was something Hela had cultivated herself with the power of Death since a very long time ago, with the aim of one day using it to pierce Odin's chest.
Who knew that old fellow would die so quickly?
So she never had the chance to use it, and even more so after following Karl.
This long sword, emanating the aura of Death, had also absorbed his energy, and since it and Hela were one, it also greatly enhanced when Hela ascended to the Single-Universe Level.
Now, with Hela wielding the sword of death, her combat power would at least increase by several points, and Zeus's expression began to turn ugly when Hela took out the sword of death.
With his eyesight, it was naturally not difficult to see that this was a top-tier divine artifact, and one with an evil aura.
An ordinary person would simply be unable to wield it.
He hadn't expected the other party to have such a weapon.
Then, he switched his aegis to his left hand, and a golden lightning shape appeared in his right hand; it was precisely the divine artifact: Lightning!
