Lu Mingfei doesn't want to be a superhero

Chapter 381 Angel of Death
Over the Atlantic Ocean.

The green pillar of light that reached the sky disappeared, and a huge hole formed on the sea surface below. The sea water poured in, forming a whirlpool that was big enough to swallow the island.

Hela was held by Lu Mingfei's wrist and suspended in the air. The atmosphere became quiet for a moment.

Hela looked at the person in front of her in confusion.

She now has two questions that she can't figure out - why did this man who claims to be the prince of Asgard lift the seal for her? And why did this man seem to be standing against her after helping her lift the seal?
Then why did you help me remove the seal?
Hela once again tried to pull her arm out of Lu Mingfei's hand. This time, she even mobilized all her divine power - the power of the Asgard god can not only be converted into magic or launch powerful energy attacks, but can also be used to strengthen her physical fitness or defensive capabilities.

Of course, this transformation depends not only on the user's divine power, but also on the skill of the transformation, just as the Asgardians who are born with energy also need to learn before they can use magic.

Melee combat is not Hela's strong point, but her use of divine power is still second only to Odin. When the huge divine power is converted into physical fitness, she actually shook Lu Mingfei's fingers that were holding her.

The corners of Hela’s mouth curled up - she had not been able to break free from Lu Mingfei’s grasp just now only because she had not used her divine power. As long as she used her divine power, there would be no enemy she could not defeat except that old man!
A golden light flashed in Lu Mingfei's eyes, and a very subtle glow appeared on his body.

The spirit of words is immortal.

"Kaka——"

Hela's arms, or rather her arm bones, made a sound as if they were overwhelmed.

"You!" Hela swung her other hand fiercely towards Lu Mingfei, and the dark green dagger in front of her palm stabbed towards Lu Mingfei's throat - this was a magical creation, but it was sharper than the Uru metal of Asgard.

"Ding--"

The moment the silver sword tip and the dark green dagger touched each other, the dagger disintegrated like sand.

“Made by the Dwarf King?” Hela’s eyes twitched twice.

In her impression, the Dwarf King only created a limited number of equipment, namely the Eternal Spear and the Destroyer used by Odin, Mjolnir used by her, and the Infinity Gauntlet forged in advance during Odin's ambitious period to control the Infinity Stones.

Now we have to add the sword in front of us.

But for some reason, this sword posed a far greater threat to her than the Spear of Eternity.

When one’s strength reaches her level, there is almost no “illusion” when it comes to the perception of specific things. She feels that the sword in front of her is dangerous, which means that this sword really has the power to seriously injure her.

But it doesn't matter, her divine power is connected to Asgard. As long as Asgard exists, nothing in the world can kill her! Even her weak father can't do it!

But she still has to find a way to return to Asgard. Although she will not die if she is not in Asgard, her divine power cannot reach its strongest state. Only by returning to Asgard and standing on that land can her divine power reach its peak. Then she will even have the confidence to challenge that already weak old thing!
Hela gritted her teeth, her body trembled, and she turned into a dark green energy body, like a flowing crystal, with a little bit of energy leaking out and forming flames on the surface.

Lu Mingfei glanced at Hela in confusion - temporarily transforming into an energy body is indeed a powerful ability that can make one immune to most physical attacks, but in a battle of their level, it doesn't seem to be of much use, right?

The dark energy flame danced on Lu Mingfei's palm, still tightly grasping Hela's energy arm.

The next moment, under Lu Mingfei's even more puzzled gaze, Hela condensed a dagger again, swung her hand to cut off her arm that was grabbed by Lu Mingfei, and turned into a dark green reverse-flying meteor, rising into the sky.

Not only that, as she flew away, the energy arm held in Lu Mingfei's hand suddenly spread and exploded, enveloping Lu Mingfei.

The Hela energy body that had already passed through the stratosphere flowed like liquid, spreading and condensing at the broken end of the arm, and re-formed a new arm - but at this moment the dark green color on her body became a little lighter, not very noticeable.

Coming out of her energy state, Hela exhaled.

In the energy state, the damage of losing an arm is actually greater than having her hand chopped off directly - with her immortal body, she can quickly repair any injuries, but with Lu Mingfei's strength, it is still possible to catch her if her arm is directly cut off.

If an energy body is transformed and its arm is cut off, the severed part will not recover into the body. Instead, it will explode immediately due to the loss of overall restraint, causing devastating damage in a small range.

Of course, the price was also huge—she lost an equal amount of divine power.

In other words, for every percentage of her body that the arm occupied, she would permanently lose that percentage of her divine power.

But it doesn't matter. As long as she can return to Asgard, the lost divine power can still be restored through her special connection with Asgard. It just will take a long time.

After exiting the energy state, Hela flew with her arms open. Dazzling green light spread out from her, covering a radius of dozens of kilometers. It could even be seen from the ground, like a rising green star.

The reason why she was caught by Lu Mingfei just now was mainly because she did not expect that the other party had space-related abilities. Now she has released the Asgard magic. Within the range of this green light, ordinary space magic or abilities will be directly erased and become ineffective. Although she cannot erase the power of the space gem, she can interfere with it.

Originally, the power to control the gem was the child swinging the sledgehammer. Now in this area it is equivalent to someone pushing the child on the shoulder when he is swinging the sledgehammer. Even if the space door can still be opened, there will be a large offset.

"Hmph... wait until I get back to Asgard..." Hela lowered her head and gritted her teeth as she glanced in Lu Mingfei's direction. As long as she entered space, she would have a way to get back to Asgard.

"So you want to go back to Asgard." A blue space door opened from behind Hela. Lu Mingfei reached out and grabbed her neck. Hela stopped in place like a kite with a string caught.

She turned her head stiffly and looked at the blue space door that was just closing behind Lu Mingfei.

Instead of using the power of the Space Stone to teleport, he directly manipulated the Space Stone to open a portal.

This was not something that could be shaken by the interference magic she released.

The kid knocked the guy down with a sledgehammer, but the guy in front of him didn't seem to be a "kid".

"Are you really the eldest princess of Asgard? You are so rude..." Lu Mingfei complained dissatisfiedly, "You said you wanted to go back to Asgard earlier, so I took you back."

“Take me... back?” Hela was stunned.

She thought Lu Mingfei was going to seal her on Earth again.

"Yes, what else? I am here to take you to see God Odin." Lu Mingfei shrugged.

After all, she is the daughter of God Odin, so we still need to discuss with God Odin how to deal with her.

Hela was silent for a few seconds and didn't say anything.

This guy in front of her either didn't know that her power would be greatly enhanced in Asgard, or he was so arrogant that he thought that she would not be his opponent even in Asgard.

"let's go."

Lu Mingfei snapped his fingers, and the blue space gate swallowed him and Hela.

……

Asgard, in front of Asgard.

The blue space door opened, and Lu Mingfei walked out, grabbing Hela's neck.

At this moment, Hela still had her hair disheveled, and with the tall Lu Mingfei pinching her neck, she looked like an innocent girl being bullied by a villain.

But the next moment, a huge and majestic energy flame rose from her body, its height even exceeded that of Asgard, and the whole of Asgard trembled as if responding to her return. "Be honest!" Lu Mingfei released his hand that was pinching Hela's neck and patted her on the top of her head.

Hela was knocked to the ground with a "pia" sound.

Words of Discipline, Words of Kingship.

If she was allowed to stay in Asgard for a long time and her strength was raised to its peak, it would take some effort for Lu Mingfei to take her down, but at this moment she had just returned to Asgard.

Picking up the immobile Hela, Lu Mingfei walked into the Fairy Palace.

As he expected, Odin was already sitting on the throne waiting for him.

He removed the seal on Hela mainly because he didn't want her to continue to attack the seal and burden Odin, but he didn't block Odin when he removed the seal, so Odin should have felt it when he did it.

"Ming Fei, thank you for your hard work." Odin nodded on the throne.

He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but Lu Mingfei always felt that Odin looked a little weaker than the last time they met.

It must be an illusion, right? It can't be caused by the fight between me and him. I was holding back and couldn't possibly hurt him. Odin is not a fool like Thor. It's impossible for him to hurt himself in a fight, right?

Lu Mingfei shook his head in his heart, put Hela on the ground, and said awkwardly: "Ahem, father and daughter meet."

Hela, with her hair disheveled, raised her head and looked coldly at the steps and Odin on the throne, without saying a word.

Odin's one eye looked down at Hela with a complicated look, but he also said nothing.

"Well... I have nothing else to do, so I'll leave first. You and your daughter can have some time together." Although Lu Mingfei wanted to watch the show, he had no excuse to stay in such an occasion where the father was loving and the daughter was filial.

"No, Mingfei, you stay. There is no father and daughter here now. There are only the God King Odin, Prince Nidhogg, and the sinner Hela." Odin said in a deep voice.

Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment, but his desire to watch the show took over. He appeared in front of his throne and sat down. He also had a legitimate reason. What if Hela invaded the Earth again? He had the responsibility to protect the weak Earth from the evil goddess of death Hela!
"Sinner? Huh..." Hela looked up, as if stimulated by the word, and stared at Odin, "If I am a sinner, then what are you? A coward?"

"Hela, my daughter, we must admit that our conquest of the Nine Realms has hurt too many people. I bear the same sin and blood as you, so I choose to become a benevolent monarch to atone for my sins. You can do the same instead of continuing to make mistakes." Odin said slowly, "If you can let go of your desire for conquest and give up the idea of ​​bloody war, you will still be the heir of Asgard."

“Humph… Heir… Hahahahahahaha…” Hela seemed to have heard something very ridiculous. “Father, do you still remember how the title of ‘Goddess of Death’ came about?”

"I gave it to you as a reward for conquering the Nine Realms," Odin said frankly, "but now I regret it. This title itself is a shame. It represents the countless innocent people who died in the war."

“Really? But I think this suits me very well! Not only was I the goddess of death in the past, I will be one in the future! I will bring death and rule to the entire universe!” Dozens of daggers appeared around Hela and flew towards the god Odin.

Crystals like glass spread in the air like snowflakes, and in just a moment they covered the entire hall. Hela's dagger snaked through the transparent crystals like a venomous snake, creating cracks one after another, but it lost its power after only a few meters, and stopped with a hissing sound, like a bug wrapped in amber.

The Spirit of Words, Glazed Brahma City.

Even Hela was wrapped in the Glazed Brahma City. Under Lu Mingfei's careful care, the crystals around her were extremely hard, making her limbs and torso unable to move, and even her divine power difficult to release.

Lu Mingfei looked at God Odin: "How about...seal her again? I'll do it this time."

Although he is not very good at sealing, it is not impossible to give it a try if combined with alchemy.

“Do you think I’m afraid? I’m immortal. Even if you seal me, I will break your seal sooner or later and bring death to you!” Hela looked at Lu Mingfei and calmed down.

Through Odin's attitude towards Lu Mingfei and the power Lu Mingfei displayed, she has accepted a despairing reality - Lu Mingfei is indeed at the same level as Odin.

But so what? She is still immortal...

"No need, the power of the Phoenix can kill Hela." Odin took a breath and said to Lu Mingfei.

Hela’s pupils suddenly contracted: “The power of the Phoenix…”

Lu Mingfei summoned the Silver Oak Sword, and a flame-colored light flashed across the sword.

Immortality is also divided into levels. Hela's immortality can ensure that she will not die even if she is bombarded head-on by the power of a single Infinity Stone, but she is not so strong in the face of the power of the Phoenix.

"Uh..." Lu Mingfei held the Silver Oak Sword and hesitated, "Lord Odin, are you sure?"

He really didn't expect Odin to say that.

Although the implication of Odin's previous myths was that "Hela's life is bound to Asgard, she is immortal, and I have no choice but to seal her", Lu Mingfei did not believe that Odin really had no solution.

Especially after absorbing Ego and sparring with the god Odin, Lu Mingfei was basically certain that - at their level, Hela's "immortality" would at most be a little tricky or troublesome, but definitely not to the point of "no solution".

Even without using the power of the Phoenix, Lu Mingfei still has plenty of ways to deal with Hela.

He believed that Odin certainly had no fewer ways than he did.

The reason why only Hela was sealed was probably because the old father was reluctant to kill the daughter who had been with him the longest.

Lu Mingfei also understood the old father's feelings, so he was so surprised when he heard Odin say that Hela could be killed with the power of the Phoenix.

“My last moments are almost up. If I cannot ensure that Hela will not become a threat to the Nine Realms and the universe, then…” Odin’s one-eyed gaze shifted away from Hela’s face, “I’m sorry, my…daughter.”

Hela did not speak, did not beg for mercy, and did not even use pleading eyes to win Odin's heart. It was not that she did not believe that Lu Mingfei had the power of the phoenix, but as the goddess of death, her dignity did not allow her to beg for mercy in the face of death.

Lu Mingfei stood up slowly, and the phoenix patterns on the surface of the Silver Oak Sword became more and more dynamic, as if it would fly out with the power of the phoenix at any time.

Odin slowly closed his one eye.

Lu Mingfei suddenly raised his hand and took the Silver Oak Sword back into his body.

Odin looked at Lu Mingfei in confusion.

Lu Mingfei looked away feeling somewhat guilty.

He now has a way to solve the problem without killing Hela, or rather, someone has given him a way to solve the problem without killing Hela.

However, God Odin may not accept this method.

Because just after he stood up, a little boy with a provocative smile on his face said something to him.

"Brother, it would be a shame to kill them like this. You only have two angels now, wouldn't it be better to have one more?"
