Chapter 354 Lord of the Nine Realms (Happy New Year)
With the death of Vilgax, the war between the realms finally came to an end.
However, too many worlds have been destroyed by war. When Malekith was still alive, he had already caused unrest in the Nine Realms. The original Nine Realms are now almost in name only.
Asgard turned into a land of death, and one of the two underworlds was smashed to pieces by Bant. Even though it was glued together again by him later, it was still a broken land after all. Jotunheim had been in ruins for who knows how long.
Today, the only place in the Nine Realms that has suffered the least damage is Vanaheim.
Loki received the order from Malekith to attack Vanaheim, but he naturally disobeyed the order and pretended not to break in. Instead, he cleared a wave of soldiers first. Later, among the warriors who came to support the Earth, the warlocks of the Vanaheim Protoss accounted for a large proportion.
Therefore, after the war, Bant did not need to pay much attention to the reconstruction of the earth, but instead focused on reshaping the Nine Realms.
"Shouldn't you be the one doing this?"
Bant glared at Odin and said unhappily.
This old guy, not only has he become younger, but his character has become more and more lazier. The Nine Realms originally obeyed Asgard as their master, but as the Lord of the Nine Realms, he doesn't care about anything and instead drags Bant to serve as a soldier. Is this reasonable?
Gu Yi on the side lowered his head, drinking tea in silence, with a comfortable expression on his face.
Anyway, you two go ahead and do your work, I'm going to lie down.
Ancient One felt very happy. Although she had not yet found Doctor Strange to succeed her, judging from the response to the crisis of Vilgax this time, the wizards and plumbers of the Sanctuary of the Holy of Holies cooperated very well, and her several disciples all played a significant role. Even if she gave up, the Sanctuary of the Holy of Holies would not have any major problems.
As for the invasion from the dark dimension or other dimensions, there is no need to worry about it.
The earth today is no longer the earth of the past. What Dormammu and Somammu? You are the fucking dimensional demon!
If you dare to come, I will make sure you never come back!
Retirement life is so comfortable as you don’t have to do anything crap.
She took a sip of her tea and squinted her eyes as she watched Bant and Odin blame each other.
"The Nine Realms have been the territory of Asgard since ancient times. Such a big thing happened this time, and it would be fine if you just left it alone. But now that Vilgax is dead, isn't it time for you, a policeman, to come out and clean up the mess?" Bant said angrily.
"You can't say that. What do you mean by since ancient times?" Odin had a different opinion. "That's not the case at all. The Nine Realms have been subject to Asgard for only a few thousand years. And it was my daughter Hela who conquered them out of ignorance. I have never acknowledged it. Now Hela has been captured by you, and Asgard has been destroyed. It is reasonable that you should be the master of the Nine Realms."
This old guy is trying to pass on the blame like crazy, and he doesn't even want the kingdom he fought so hard to conquer.
What King of Sakaar, Lord of Destiny, what Lord of the Nine Realms, who takes turns to sit, today it is Sakaar's turn... After all the good words and bad words, there is only one meaning - the Nine Realms are under your control from now on, you have to clean up your mess yourself.
Thousands of years have passed, and Odin has actually become more open-minded.
The identity of the Lord of the Nine Realms had long been of no use to him. In fact, in the past one or two thousand years, he had not even managed any countries other than Asgard.
Asgard is the root, he doesn't care much about the others.
And now, the world tree that was originally so old that it was rotten has finally decayed completely with the death of Vilgax. The new world tree will take root and sprout with the nourishment of heavenly energy, and become the vein that maintains the energy of the nine realms and even the universe.
It can be said that the Nine Realms had changed hands long ago, and this was not something he could change.
"This is also reincarnation. The twilight of the gods has begun and ended invisibly." Odin said, "The seeds of the world tree that I once planted with the power of Odin have now become seeds of heavenly energy. The old nine realms have been shattered, and the new nine realms will inevitably be born in your hands."
"What's more, the reason why the lords of all realms worshipped Asgard as their common lord was because I promised to help them in times of crisis. However, this promise has been broken, and the nine kingdoms are no longer subordinate to Asgard. Instead, it was the Tiangong Association that helped them this time. I believe that Etri and the others are willing to worship Sakaar as their king, right?"
The old man spoke seriously, but Bant felt that he was just trying to be lazy.
But what Odin said was actually correct.
"The dwarves have indeed thought about surrendering to me and begging for my protection," Bant said helplessly, "and they are probably scared after being beaten. They are unwilling to return to Nidwear and beg me to let them settle under the surface of Sakaar."
There is plenty of land on Sakaar.
The native Sakaar and Korbin tribes each number only a few million people, which can be said to be very scarce considering the vast land of a planet.
Not to mention the dwarves, all of whom probably only number tens of thousands, and they live underground and won't take up space on the ground. The cave furnace temporarily built on Sakaar that leads to the giant stomach can become their home.
Considering the dwarves' practicality, Bant agreed to let them stay.
Each dwarf craftsman has an extraordinary level of craftsmanship. Now Sakaar also needs to be rebuilt. With their help, not only will the progress be much faster, but the rebuilt Sakaar will also have a different look. But ruling the nine realms...
Bant really didn't know what it was worth.
The scope and territory of the Tiangong Association are already large enough, with more and more planetary civilizations joining in. However, those civilizations are essentially still autonomous, so he doesn't need to worry about them.
But a ruined Nine Realms would likely take away a lot of his energy.
"Actually, you can't think that way," Ancient One interrupted, "After you destroy Vilgax, the powers he absorbed will not disappear. As the new World Tree takes root and sprouts, they will return to the World Tree's huge energy torrent, and eventually reshape those broken worlds. At that time, as the Lord of the Nine Realms, you will also receive positive feedback. As long as the Nine Realms are not destroyed, you will be immortal and have infinite power."
This is a characteristic of the Asgard pantheon.
And it just so happens that Bant himself can become an Asgard warrior - the God of the Universe.
Although Cosmic God is a hero that Bant has hardly ever used, he actually has great potential. If he is bound to the Nine Realms, he will immediately surpass the current Odin and become a powerful force.
However, the combat effectiveness increased too quickly, so Bant was not that concerned.
"Okay, I'll leave the Nine Realms to you. I have to run away!" Odin slapped Bant's shoulder hard, then ran away.
He faked his death not long ago, mainly to deceive Thor and make him wake up.
Now that Thor has truly awakened and gained greater power than before, Frigga tells him the truth.
This time Thor couldn't hold it anymore.
This old guy is always thinking about how to trick his son. Faced with new and old grudges, Thor decides to make a decision that is kind to his son - he wants to give Odin a good beating!
These days, Thor has used his divine power to drive the Rainbow Bridge to fly all over the universe, just to catch him.
Even if Odin hides in Regidomon, it won't work, because Thor's divine power has already merged with celestial energy, and his Rainbow Bridge is also a celestial energy version, so he can enter and exit Regidomon freely.
He decided to hide in the Pantheon for a few days.
Odin dropped his burden and ran away, and the burden of being the lord of the nine realms fell on Bant's shoulders.
In fact, it is similar to what Odin said. Now except for Sakaar, no one is qualified to be the Lord of the Nine Realms. However, how to restore the nine dimensions to their previous state is a problem for Bant.
Fortunately, although Gu Yi is retired, he is still someone who can talk about things.
She was holding a cup of tea while tempering her heavenly energy, and she said distractedly: "Among the Nine Realms, Jotunheim, Niflheim, and Nidwear can be said to have completely ceased to exist."
All the giants in Jotunheim were slaughtered, and the country left behind was just an empty shell. After the dwarves settled on Sakaar, Nidvear will become a true legend.
"But on the other hand, Sakaar and Regidomon can be integrated into the Nine Realms." said Ancient One.
In fact, there were signs that Regidomon had merged with the Nine Realms when it was first created. When Odin moved, he wanted to take the World Tree with him. He originally wanted to slowly change the nature of the World Tree. He didn't expect that Vilgax would make such a fuss, as if he had taken an axe and directly chopped off all the rotten branches.
"The broken land of Niflheim can be merged with the underworld of Helheim. Only one world of death is enough. As for heaven, it can allow it to return." said Ancient One.
Although the angels in heaven were also enemies, they have now surrendered and become captives.
In the same situation were the fire demons of Muspelheim and the remaining dark elves of Watheim. With the defeat of Vilgax, they surrendered simply.
There is no need to eliminate all of these people, but they do need to be controlled. If left unchecked, the next Malekith is likely to appear.
Bant and Ancient One discussed it and finally decided to leave these messes to the right people.
It's okay for Odin to give up the burden, since his child is in Bant's hands anyway.
Besides, this old guy has many children, so dividing one of them among the nine kingdoms would be enough.
As for the paradise that fell into the land of nothingness, Bant planned to transform it into the critical point of nothingness that had been shelved for a long time.
