When Levi, Wanda, Jean and others arrived in Asgard, they found the place in chaos.
It was not because of any attack, but simply because the World Tree was shaking constantly, and the whole Asgard was shaking as well.
Odin was watching there. Asgard had gained countless benefits from the World Tree. Was it finally time to pay the price?
After seeing Levi and others arrive, Odin greeted them immediately, and then he looked at the many Valkyries behind Levi with a complicated expression.
When Hela was carrying out the massacre, he did not stop it in time due to some of his own considerations.
Now that Hela has been exiled to Midgard, the resurrection of the Valkyries is a natural thing.
But he never expected that Levi had actually found his father Bauer's Valkyries, and it seemed that they had completely cleared all the curses.
And the many women who accompanied Levi actually made him feel threatened.
In such a short period of time, Levi has gathered around him so many talented people with great power and potential.
Asgard, which has been short of talent in recent years, seems to be much less impressive.
And the weapons on Levi's body and the sword in his hand are actually his Odin's Wrath and Destroyer, right?
In such a short period of time, Levi transformed it beyond recognition. He even suspected that Levi had obtained the ether particles in advance.
Or, is this power from heaven?
But now Odin had no time to think about this. He just expressed his gratitude to Levi first. He had already seen the complete destruction of the giant snake.
His former brother had become a threat to Asgard and the entire world. He had been driven by hatred, and now he had finally found eternal peace.
Levi nodded casually and threw the Meowth Hammer over.
He was not doing this entirely for Odin or Asgard. The eight hammers of the Serpent had already become his trophies. With a little purification, he would immediately have eight more powerful subordinates.
Different from the Nova Helmets, they are all magic-based, each has its own strengths, and do not rely on Danger or Nova fields, so they can be used in many special situations.
What's more, Sif had already dealt with him well in secret.
Together with Daisy and Thor, there are ten hammers in total, responsible for the ten realms respectively.
Of course, this was just the result of his discussion with Odin. Levi left it to Daisy and the others to decide whether to go to other places to be heroes or just stay in New York and be stay-at-home girls.
To this day, he has almost no requirements for the girls who follow him, because he and Danger can handle almost everything.
Jean and Rachel were also looking at the distance with a little excitement. The big snake before was already considered powerful. After killing it, Levi distributed the energy purified and refined by the Phoenix Fire to them and their daughter, which really made them full.
But compared to the World Tree in front of it, the big snake seems insignificant!
Wanda, Xiao Wang and others who came to Asgard for the first time looked at everything around them with curiosity. Although mages were used to dealing with various alien beings, Asgard was still somewhat different.
Asgardians have always been extremely proud, advocating frontal combat and glorious death, etc. This is very incompatible with mages who are accustomed to living in seclusion.
In addition, with the Rainbow Bridge as a powerful barrier, few ordinary wizards have ever visited Asgard.
Similarly, after seeing Odin, many Valkyries had different expressions for a moment.
They may have once had nearly endless loyalty to Odin or Asgard, but after what happened in the past and being saved by Levi, they collectively chose each other as their new target of allegiance. Although Asgard is their homeland, it is no longer what they remember.
Seeing the movement of the World Tree getting louder and louder, Levi couldn't help but ask, "What are your plans, Your Majesty?"
The World Tree has just been activated, and its power has not yet reached its peak. It will take a long time for it to fully awaken, so there is no need to rush.
Odin sighed and made up his mind: "Perhaps it is time to let the Asgardians leave the protection of the World Tree."
Then his face became serious: "If Your Highness is willing to help Asgard overcome its difficulties and put an end to Ragnarok, from now on, no matter where Your Highness swings his sword, I, Odin, swear to fight alongside Your Highness!"
As soon as the words came out, Levi didn't have any special reaction, but Angela, Balder, and many Valkyries around him couldn't help but let out low cries.
What's the difference between Odin's statement and thinking of himself as Levi's younger brother?
Not to mention Odin, even for all the gods-kings in Asgard, this is unprecedented!
If this gets out, I'm afraid others will think they are crazy.
Levi raised his eyebrows. In addition to being grateful for his help, Odin should have also completely confirmed in some way that he had successfully obtained more than one Infinity Stone.
But in this world, no one has ever successfully collected all six Infinity Stones.
On the one hand, they are too mysterious. Few people have even heard of their existence, let alone know their whereabouts and are willing to collect them.
On the other hand, their power is too great. Once any being tries to gather them together, they will attract many beings who will try to snatch them away or stop them, and their end is often very miserable.
In comparison, Odin, who voluntarily gave up the Infinity Stones and disguised them in many ways, had the best ending among them. Neither he nor Asgard suffered any attacks as a result.
Odin is just committed to collecting all the Infinity Stones. This attitude of his is both an investment and a gamble.
If Levi fails in the end, the entire Asgard will probably be doomed to failure.
"Are you sure?"
This time Levi did not use any honorific title. Since Odin decided to follow him, he naturally had to change his identity.
As for Sif, everyone has their own opinion.
Odin nodded resolutely: "Asgard and I have made all preparations. No matter what lies ahead, it will be much better than becoming nutrients for the World Tree!"
"Haha, good, you won't regret this decision!"
Levi laughed loudly and displayed his phoenix wings for the first time: "Wanda, please help keep an eye on Jean and Rachel!"
"Okay, honey~" "Hey, Dad, I'm ready!"
As the two people responded, almost identical phoenix wings stretched out from behind them, and soon they formed a strange resonance with each other, which increased each other's strength to varying degrees.
The Phoenix Force covers countless parallel universes throughout Marvel. Every host of the Phoenix Force actually only gets an insignificant fragment of the Phoenix Force.
Even though Jean is known as the best carrier of the Phoenix force, in fact, besides the one in front of Levi, there must be other Jeans in other parallel worlds. They just share the Phoenix force together.
But when multiple fragments gather together, they will naturally attract more power and the attention of the Phoenix Force in the White Hot Room!
The next moment, Odin and Wanda couldn't help but change color with anger. This power was completely beyond their imagination!
The World Tree in the distance seemed to have sensed something. It and the entire Asgard began to shake more violently, as if it wanted to wake up faster.
But it was too late. With Levi's light shout, three lifelike phoenixes flapped their wings and surrounded him.
The next moment, flames shot up into the sky, and the World Tree, one of the oldest ancient gods on earth, began to burn like a real tree.
When seeing this scene, Odin was suddenly in a trance.
There is actually more than one version of the legend or prophecy about Ragnarok, and the omens are also different.
But the only things in common are the death of Balder, the rampage of the demon wolf Fenrir, the awakening of the great snake, and the mutation of the world tree.
After that, Ragnarok will officially begin.
Although the time, sequence and results are all different, now that the four omens have come true one by one, how will Ragnarok unfold?
If Levi failed, Asgard, which had angered the World Tree, would probably be heading towards its final destruction ahead of time, right?
Then Odin shook his head vigorously to drive away the inexplicable thought in his mind. When he opened his mouth and decided to stand beside Levi, he was destined to lose his way out.
The World Tree can destroy Asgard, and so can Levi!
With a powerful strike of his divine spear, Kungunir, Odin's voice instantly spread throughout Asgard: "Proud Asgardians, there is no need to be afraid or confused. Let us pray for the warriors' struggle, and we will eventually usher in true freedom!"
With a pointing of the magic spear, huge and pure energy began to flow towards one of the phoenixes, causing it to let out a clear cry full of joy.
Odin has already seen that these phoenixes can burn everything to strengthen themselves. Both their potential and power are far superior to Surtur. Of course, his energy can also be used as fuel!
After a brief panic, people in countless corners of Asgard began to pray loudly. Even though they still had many things they didn't understand, as Odin said, there was no need to be afraid. At worst, they could just go to Valhalla!
Those who had the ability to release energy followed Odin's example and directed some of their energy to the Phoenix.
Although the energy that each of them can provide is negligible and the effect is better than nothing, even if there are powers such as Queen Frigga, Enchantress Amora, and Heimdall, it is still the same for Levi.
But the overall look is still somewhat shocking.
Wanda was suddenly eager to try and had the urge to follow, but considering that Levi had just asked her to help be on guard, she forced herself to hold back.
Instead, Carol and the many Valkyries looked at each other and did not take any action.
The energy allocated to ordinary novae is almost unlimited. As a nova general with the highest authority in the legion, Levi still needs their help? Are you kidding!
As the Phoenix Fire burned, the huge World Tree could still barely resist at first, but the energy it used would also be burned and transformed. As a result, its resistance was constantly weakened.
After less than ten breaths, its outer defense completely collapsed, and most of its body was burned to ashes, then transformed into abundant energy and absorbed by the Phoenix.
The phoenix, which was originally as tall as a person, began to expand in size.
Qin and Rachel couldn't help but let out a low cry of surprise, and then subconsciously looked at Levi.
Levi certainly understood what they meant, because he suddenly felt that the Phoenix Force's attention to him had increased significantly.
The consciousness in his heart told him that from this moment on, as long as he was still in Marvel, no matter which parallel universe he was in, he could get in touch with the White Hot Room and mobilize the power of the Phoenix.
If they can kill the World Tree, they will get even more rewards.
Although the power of the Phoenix is strong, its countless hosts have rarely actually killed any strong people. Many hosts have spent their entire lives fighting against ordinary people or ordinary mutants.
Or they try hard to control their emotions and rarely use the Phoenix Fire. In most parallel worlds, Jean, who was tamed by Professor X, is the most obvious example.
Therefore, every time a strong person falls under the Phoenix Fire, he will be rewarded with the power of the Phoenix!
It would be fine if he didn't take action, but since he did, he naturally had to cut the weeds and eradicate them completely. Levi had originally intended to solve the problem of the World Tree once and for all, and now he had even less reason to let the other party go!
As he put in more strength, the World Tree burned faster and faster, until its volume was less than one percent of its original size. Under the strong stimulation, it finally woke up completely.
"Asgard, how dare you disobey me, you ungrateful creatures!"
"Bully, Bestla, Bauer, Willy, Fee!"
As the World Tree roared, five huge beings with strong power but lifeless eyes appeared around the World Tree. They waved their hands with divine power, trying to stop the burning of the Phoenix Fire.
Odin's face turned pale instantly, and many of his original speculations were confirmed.
"Damn you, Y'k'trasil, you devoured my brothers, my father, and my grandparents!"
In addition to Orochi, he has two brothers, Willy and Fei.
Bauer was the father of four brothers, and Blicher and Bestra were his grandparents.
But they all disappeared one by one inexplicably, and from some point in time, the many proofs of their existence began to gradually disappear, until now, there are not many people who even remember their names.
Even if he told others his name, it wouldn't be long before they would forget everything about it, as if he had never mentioned it.
He once suspected that it was a curse from some evil god from another dimension, but he didn't expect that it was all caused by the World Tree!
"Asgardians, I have given you everything. Now it's time to repay me!"
The World Tree roared once again, and for a moment, no one knew how many Asgardians were either panicking or going crazy, even Sif and the others were no exception.
Levi snorted. There were five puppets that were not even as good as the giant snake, plus a seriously injured one. The strength of the World Tree was probably similar to that of the original Star Devourer - Red Shift.
Are you pretending to be a mother? You dare to ignore my existence?
With a thought, Levi once again strengthened the energy support for the Phoenix Fire.
"Yuktrasil, you foolish old man who lives in the glory of the past, you'd better die quickly!" (End of this chapter)
