American TV series: Start with the little Sheldon's wool

Chapter 740 Death Goddess Hela
"Take a look and see if there's anything else in your body that needs to be restored?" Mike asked Nebula with a smile.

A week had passed since the reconstruction of Sakaar began. The new order had been established, but other matters would require time to proceed gradually.

So after leaving Valkyrie a communicator to keep an eye on the Grandmaster, Mike summoned Thor, who was concerned about the situation of the Asgardian survivors, and they prepared to embark on their return journey.

Along with Scarlet Witch and Nebula, Dr. Banner and Loki also arrived.

Before opening the portal to outer space, Mike took the time to heal Nebula.

Consider it a small reward for "one of our own".

In other words, Mike has been able to complete the tasks assigned to him by the other party very well during this period, which has made Mike very satisfied.

"Everything's healed, everything's really restored..." Nebula, surrounded by a pile of mechanical parts, checked her newly restored body and said gratefully, "Thank you, boss."

Even if she is an alien, Nebula is still female.

As a woman, how could she not love beauty?

"You're welcome, you deserve it." Mike nodded, quite satisfied with Nebula's new look.

Without the mechanical prosthetic, the other person no longer possessed the cold, resentful aura she had exuded before. Now, with tears welling in her eyes, she actually looked rather adorable.

"Thor, do you need me to treat your eyes?" Ignoring Nebula, who was moved to tears, Mike looked at the one-eyed Thor beside him.

The other person had a black magnetic patch pasted on their blind eye, and their overall appearance was strangely similar to that of the previous god-king Odin.

"Not for now, thank you~" Thor replied after thinking for a moment.

He is now a true avenger, and he sees his blind eye as a disgrace and a reminder.

He was reminded to seek revenge on his sister Hela and reclaim the glory of the Asgardian gods.

Therefore, he did not intend to heal his eye injury before achieving this goal.

"Alright~" Mike didn't dwell on it too much, and then condensed holy light to open a cosmic portal to Norway.

Two months later, the cold winter in Norway has receded, and the soft spring sunshine has shone on the grass, where tender buds have sprouted, creating a scene of everything coming back to life.

On the vast plains in the distance, a large group of Asgardian survivors are busily building their new home.

The palaces, plazas, and even the pools were all designed in the style of Asgard.

Thor stepped out of the portal and looked at the familiar scene, his single eye flashing with complex emotions.

There was both relief and self-blame.

Then, his eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at the figure in the crowd in the distance, dressed in female Thor armor.

The people of Asgard surrounded her, as if she were the new queen of Asgard.

“Mary Jane…” Thor rubbed his eyes before he dared to be sure he wasn’t hallucinating.

The female Thor who led the people of Asgard to work was actually his girlfriend, Mary Jane.

"Come on, I'll take you to meet my people." From the hesitation when stepping out of the portal to the "lion returning to its territory," Thor only took a few seconds.

During this time, he also specially summoned his Thor armor.

Yes, after this period of adaptation, Thor is now able to skillfully control the lightning power within him.

“Mary Jane, thank you so much for looking after my people while I was away…” Amid the gasps of the Asgardian people, Thor strode up to the female Thor like a lion.

It's like a declaration of sovereignty.

With his chest puffed out, he certainly exudes more presence than the petite female version of Thor.

Upon realizing this, Thor couldn't help but reveal a confident smile.

"Thor!!!" Mary Jane didn't think much of it. Seeing her boyfriend finally return, she excitedly gave him a big hug, then said with concern, "Why are you only coming back now? What happened to your eyes??..."

The two never met on the battlefield of Asgard, so Mary Jane was unaware that Thor's eyes had been blinded by Hela.

Now, when she sees her boyfriend, all she sees is heartache.

"Uh, I'm fine, don't worry, it's all over..." Looking at his girlfriend's teary eyes and feeling the warmth in his arms, Thor's heart slowly melted.

A feeling of happiness slowly rose within me.

"It's good that you're back. With you leading the way, Asgard will surely regain its former prosperity..." Moved, Mary Jane also noticed that although her boyfriend had lost an eye, his spirit was not broken.

This is definitely a good thing for the Asgardian survivors who need a leader.

"Long live the King of Gods!! Long live Asgard!!!"

"Long live the King of Gods!! Long live Asgard!!!"

……

Sure enough, upon seeing Thor's return, the Asgardians spontaneously cheered for their new god-king.

That's the taste of hope.

"Tch, what's so great about him..." Loki, who was also of Asgardian royal family but was being ignored in a corner, couldn't help but make a sour remark while watching Thor being so popular.

He didn't even receive as much attention as Michael, who came along with him.

Didn't they see over there, Sif, the Asgardian goddess of war, staring at Mike with a lovesick expression?

He looked like he wanted to come over but didn't dare.

There's no way around it, the Scarlet Witch's aura is just too strong.

Then, amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the Asgardian people, Thor's return ceremony lasted for a full half hour before it ended.

During this time, Sif, the courageous warrior, finally managed to strike up a conversation with Mike.

Then, she unexpectedly discovered that Scarlet Witch, who was by Mike's side, was actually a very easy person to get along with.

By the time Mike was invited to accompany Thor to the newly built temple in Norway, Sif had already successfully become friends with Scarlet Witch.

"There are now 12,723 people living in Asgard in Norway. 546 houses have been built, and other public facilities are also under construction..." In the temple, Heimdall, the former guardian of the Rainbow Bridge, reported the situation in Norway to Thor like a chief steward.

In just two months, the new home has been built to this extent, which is actually quite impressive.

"Only a little over ten thousand people left?" Thor asked with a sorrowful expression.

The Asgardian race has never had a large population, but in the past, it numbered in the millions.

As a result, Ragnarok occurred, reducing the population by hundreds of times.

This caused Thor's heart to be filled with guilt once again.

“Thor, it’s not your fault. As long as we’re here, everything will be alright.” Noticing her boyfriend’s strange expression, Mary Jane immediately took his hand to comfort him.

“Yes, everything will be alright.” Thor slowly pulled himself out of his thoughts, and then he noticed that Heimdall, who had just finished explaining the situation of Norwegian immigrants, still looked like he wanted to say something but couldn’t.

"If there's anything else important, just say it," Thor said, looking up at Heimdall.

Through repeated setbacks and growth, Thor has gradually developed the aura of a god-king.

It is an invisible and intangible yet convincing force.

"It's about Asgard and Hela, the goddess of death..." Heimdall continued, "According to our latest news, Hela, who repelled Surtur, has re-established her divine kingdom on Asgard. She has also taken in many of the Asgardians who were unable to escape at the time."

Asgard's desire to quickly restore its former glory requires more than ten thousand inhabitants; this is clearly insufficient.

Moreover, Asgard is his homeland, and Thor will eventually lead his people back there. Explaining the situation now will allow Thor to make plans in advance.

"Hela!!!" Thor's face was filled with hatred upon hearing his sister's name.

Without realizing it, the hand resting on the chair tightened its grip, almost crushing the wooden armrest.

"I must go and bring my people back!"

Having mastered the power of thunder, Thor finally made his decision.

The next day, after resting, Thor asked Mike to open a portal to Asgard.

Accompanying them were Mike and his group, as well as Mary Jane, Heimdall, the Warriors Three, and the goddess Sif.

"The Rainbow Bridge has actually been repaired." Thor, who had arrived in Asgard through the portal, immediately noticed the Rainbow Bridge, which was now radiating light once again.

This bridge connects the nine realms and greatly aided Odin, the previous god-king, in conquering them.

Therefore, it is more than just a landmark to Asgard; it is an extremely important strategic "resource".

If it is truly repaired, it means that Hela can use it to travel to any place in Earth or the Nine Realms at any time to begin her conquest.

Just like what Odin, the king of the gods, did when he expanded his territory.

This is not good news.

“No, although the appearance of the Rainbow Bridge has been restored, it will take at least several decades for its teleportation capabilities to be restored,” Heimdall, the former guardian of the Rainbow Bridge, said as he touched the bridge.

It's like turning bad news into not-so-bad news.

"Forget it, our goal this time is to defeat Hela and take away our people. We don't need to worry about anything else for now." Thor had considered destroying the Bifrost again for a moment, but it seems there's no need for that now.

Then a group of people stepped onto the Rainbow Bridge and walked into the realm of Asgard.

"roar~"

Just then, a giant wolf, existing between illusion and reality, appeared at the end of the Rainbow Bridge.

“Griffin the wolf, I never expected it to become a Heroic Spirit…” Thor recognized its identity.

Griffin, the wolf who invaded Asgard along with others, is also considered one of the culprits behind Ragnarok.

Unexpectedly, after its death, it was summoned by Hela as a heroic spirit and became her henchman.

This shows that Hela indeed had even greater ambitions.

“I’ll stop it, you guys keep going…” Mary Jane, who had fought Griffin before, stepped forward, carrying the cracked Mjolnir.

“Let me do it; it looks quite powerful.” At the same time, Dr. Banner stepped forward first.

It's worth mentioning that Dr. Banner returned to Earth this time to atone for his mistake of creating the robot Ultron.

However, after hearing about Asgard's plight, he felt that before returning to the Avengers to atone for his sins, he could lend Thor a hand.

Now that he saw the enormous wolf Griffin, he knew it was time to prove himself.

Then, under everyone's gaze, Dr. Banner shouted and charged toward the demon wolf.

"Please, Hulk, come out now. I need you..."

Even as he stood before Griffin, shouting, Dr. Banner was still calling out for the Hulk in his heart.

Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, Dr. Banner slammed into the wolf's leg with a "thud".

The transformation was not completed throughout the entire process.

"Sorry, Hulk might need a little more time," Dr. Banner said awkwardly to the people behind him as he got up.

Then he started clapping his own hands.

"Is he really alright?" Mary Jane couldn't help but worry about Dr. Banner, looking at his unreliable behavior.

"It should be fine, right?" Thor replied.

He had seen Dr. Banner slap himself to transform before, so he had a little more confidence than Mary.

Of course, the number is also very limited.

"Hulk!!!"

Finally, amidst a series of slaps, Dr. Banner successfully transformed into the Hulk.

"I told you he could do it..." Thor, who was a little worried at first, smiled when he saw the Hulk being successfully summoned. Then he said in surprise, "I don't know if I'm seeing things, but I feel like this Hulk is even angrier than before."

Hulk has his own independent thinking, and what he dislikes most is that Dr. Banner only pays attention to him when he needs it.

This is happening again, and he's definitely not happy about it.

But what can he do? He and Dr. Banner can't appear at the same time. If he wants to get revenge on the other, he can't just punch himself.

After roaring, Hulk turned his gaze to the wolf Griffin in front of him.

Then, a battle was about to break out.

"Let's go see Hela," Mike reminded the group after the battle began.

Of course, Mike left so confidently because he realized that Griffin wasn't truly fighting the Hulk.

Its earlier "roar" didn't seem to be intentionally provoking anyone.

To be honest, it was more like welcoming everyone.

Mike didn't know whether Hela had instructed him to do this.

However, once you meet him in person, the truth will come out.

The group then bypassed the wolf and the Hulk and entered Asgard.

After the battle of Ragnarok, the land of Asgard was left with scorched yellow marks from the flames, giving it an ominous appearance from afar.

In this barren land, a sparse number of Asgardian survivors and a large number of heroic spirits are repairing the land and rebuilding their homes.

They didn't overreact when they saw Thor arrive; instead, they watched from a distance.

"Damn it, Hela must have enslaved them." Looking at the survivors' "indifferent" behavior, Thor had a bad feeling.

Perhaps these survivors suffered Hela's cruel torture, which is why they have become so numb.

Otherwise, there's no way to explain this eerie atmosphere.

"Don't think too much about it. Everything will be clear when you see Hela," Mike reassured Thor, who wasn't looking too good.

This also stirred up Mike's doubts.

The wolf Griffin was an accident, but the Asgardian survivors in the distance showed little hatred on their faces, only numbness.

In other words, they may not have been abused by Hela as Thor thought.

Things seem to be getting interesting.
