Marvel: Awakening the Universe.

Chapter 129 The Beginning of the Phoenix Gold Cloth (Second Update, Requesting Monthly Tickets!)

Centered on one's own microcosm.

It originates from mastering one's sixth sense.

Even with the Reality Stone's power, Hawke was still unable to materialize his Cosmo before awakening the Seventh Sense and becoming a Gold Saint.

but……

Strength doesn't lie.

A powerful, boundless force, far stronger than before, was constantly being channeled into his entire body through his microcosm.

In the small universe.

The fiery red gemstone, now adorned like the eyes of a phoenix, shines like a dark red sun in a microcosm, illuminating every corner of that microcosm.

Hawke slowly stood up from the ground, lowered his eyes, extended his right hand, and then casually clenched it.

Bang!
The air and space in the palm were compressed the moment the fist was clenched, and then a loud cracking sound appeared.

next second.

Hawke looked up.

Those watching from a safe distance also noticed the change in the sky and couldn't help but look up.

Eye-catching!

The spectacular convergence of the nine realms, triggered by a tremor in the World Tree that occurs only once every few millennia, unfolded at this moment.

The magnificent golden spires of Asgard palaces appeared on the Salisbury Plain.

The Jotunheim glacier cliffs, which have remained frozen for millennia, followed closely behind.

Immediately afterwards...

Muspelheim, the eternally burning flame; Vanaheim, the city filled with runes; Alfheim, the radiant forest.

at this moment.

The Nine Realms formed a unique and spectacular sight, interconnected from top to bottom.

Countless people on Earth looked up at the Nine Realms Illusion that appeared like a mirage.

Hawke was watching too.

His gaze passed through Asgard, across Vanaheim, and over Muspelheim, which was eternally burning with flames, before finally settling on a desolate plain filled with deathly silence, coldness, and pervasive ash and eternal twilight.

at this time.

On the border of the desolate plains, a disheveled, disheveled figure with unyielding eyes and tattered clothes, exuding a wild aura, appeared on the desolate plains.

Hawke's gaze pierced through several kingdoms of the Nine Realms and landed on the woman who slowly raised her head.

The moment the woman looked up, her gaze immediately fell on Hawke.

Eyes facing each other.

next second!
As a golden beam of light shot out from the Golden Palace of Asgard, the jagged black rocks, the twisted trees like withered bones, and the desolate kingdom devoid of sun, moon, and stars vanished instantly.

"This is……"

"Hela?"

"The Goddess of Death?"

"The Goddess of Death from the World Tree Universe?"

Hawke snapped out of his daze, looking at the world that seemed to have been... no, manually blocked by the God-King. He raised an eyebrow, and the green figure reappeared in his mind.

If nothing unexpected happens, then it should be Hela, the goddess of death.

And that country...

Helheim?

The World Tree is the final resting place for all living beings in the universe after they die.

As for why Helheim appears so desolate and quiet.

Very normal.

Odin did it.

After conquering the nine realms, Odin not only laid down his horses and put away his weapons, but also sealed his eldest daughter Hela in Helheim.

That's not all.

Fearing for safety, Odin then sealed away Helheim.

Hawke's mind raced, recalling all the information related to Hela and Odin.

soon.

The node time of the Nine Realms Convergence has disappeared.

Earth is still Earth.

Asgard is still Asgard.

Nothing happened.

Everything seemed calm and peaceful.

Hawke also withdrew his thoughts, looked at Peter who had appeared before him after a flash of red and blue light, smiled slightly, and greeted him.

"Long time no see, Peter."

"Okay...uh."

Peter replied instinctively, then realized what he had said and stared at the smiling Hawke, somewhat stunned.

"Long time no see? It's only been less than half an hour, and I've been here the whole time."

"Yes, it was for you. For me, those last half hour felt like an eternity."

He seemed to have gained a sixth sense simply by sitting cross-legged in a pitch-black space where his five senses were supposed to be shut down.

In reality, only Hawke himself knew how long he had been in that space.

He stayed for a long time.

a long time.

After speaking with Peter, Hawke looked up at the scenery surrounding Salisbury Plain.

Grass growing on the ground.

Green trees in the distance.

A gentle breeze carries the natural fragrance of trees and grass.

All of this made Hawke feel as if he had been transported to another world.

He really stayed there for a long time.

but……

He is back.

Hawke's heart stirred, and the image of a beautiful woman who had appeared in his mind when he was almost unable to hold on resurfaced.

You must come back!

Gwen.

Hawke, thinking of Gwen who was still waiting for him, took a deep breath and asked Peter, "Where are Gwen and Mary?"

Peter said, "At this time, they've probably just finished having the hotel's buffet breakfast."

After all, less than half an hour has passed.

Well known.

For girls, traveling is all about taking photos, and the hotel they chose this time featured a different breakfast buffet every morning.

and so……

Only half an hour has passed; I just finished breakfast and was about to leave. Wait a minute...

They might still be eating.

Peter remembered his girlfriend Mary, who once spent an hour meticulously editing photos of their dinner.

Hawke nodded upon hearing this.

"Then let's go, let's go back."

"Row."

Peter shrugged. He was just there to keep Hawke company, so if Hawke said he was leaving, then he might as well go.

Just as the two were about to leave.

Thor and his girlfriend Jane, along with S.H.I.E.L.D. agents Natasha and Barton, also walked up at this moment.

"Hawk."

"Dr. Fox."

"Hawk."

"Natasha."

Hawke nodded to Jane Foster and Natasha, whom he knew, and then turned his gaze to Jane: "Dr. Fox, I owe you a favor this time. You can contact me anytime if you need anything."

An eye for an eye must be retaliated against, and a favor must be repaid.

This is his fundamental code of conduct.

In any case, he would not have been able to obtain the Aether particle if it weren't for Dr. Jane Foster.

This is a fact.

He has to acknowledge this affection.

Jane Foster did not refuse the favor and said to Hawke, "Congratulations."

Although she wasn't sure what she was congratulating.

but……

Malekith is dead, Hawke is alive, so congratulations!

Hawke smiled slightly: "Thank you."

He then turned his gaze to Natasha, whom he also knew.

Hawke chuckled: "Didn't you go to Africa?"

Natasha paused for a moment, then shrugged: "I just got back and was planning to rest a bit before going."

Hawke nodded, then glanced at the vast chasm that seemed to stretch across Salisbury Plain in the distance, thought for a moment, and said to Natasha, "Once again, I'm going to play defensively and counter-attacking."

Natasha nodded: "We know."

She was well aware of this, of course.

Let's say that.

If Hawke and Malekith had fought in London, the entire city would likely have been destroyed.

"Should we take me back with us?"

"No need. We came here just to make sure that the commotion here is kept as quiet as possible from ordinary people. They are not ready to face this scene."

"Ok."

Hawke nodded upon hearing this, and finally turned his gaze to Thor, who was standing to the side.

He looked at Thor.

"Thor".

"Hawk."

Thor, clutching his hammer Mjolnir, looked at Hawke and said, "You're very strong. Thank you for saving Jane."

Once again, his voice was the deep bass that a cosmic vagabond with a demigod-like physique comparable to a mortal would envy.

After Thor brought Jane back to Asgard yesterday, he already knew about it after learning that the substance in Jane's body was Aether particles.

If there were just a few more ether particles in Jane's body, even if she were brought back in time, the side effect of the ether particles absorbing life force would have caused Jane irreversible damage.

and so……

Saul's thanks were sincere.

Hawke could hear the sincerity in Thor's thanks, smiled, and looked at Thor: "If we have the chance, let's have a showdown in space."

He also wanted to know if his current strength was enough to defeat Thor, who was said to be able to lift a star.

Hawke felt it was okay.

but……

Feelings are just feelings; only practice yields true knowledge.

Thor was a god who loved fighting, and upon hearing Hawke's words, a glint of fighting spirit flashed in his eyes: "Alright, now."

Hawke shook his head: "Not now, my suit was just destroyed in the battle."

As he spoke, his gaze fell upon the scattered fragments of the golden armor lying on the Salisbury Plain.

Hawke considered using the Reality Stone to restore the Saint Cloth to its original state.

but……

one more time.

The core function of a single Infinity Stone cannot negate or replace the core function of another Infinity Stone.

The most important thing.

Even if he could, he couldn't, because the Reality Stone had already transformed into the Eye of the Phoenix, and he had used the Reality Stone to maintain his fighting power above that of a true Silver Saint.

Simply put.

Until his cosmos breaks through to the Seventh Sense and the Golden Phoenix cosmos becomes a real, existing Phoenix parallel universe, he will be unable to use the Reality Stone for anything else.

after all……

He has already made the most of the Reality Gem.

Hawke turned his gaze away from the scattered fragments of the Saint Cloth.

He didn't even consider retrieving the fragments, since they couldn't be restored anyway, even if collected.

After all, his cosmos had been transformed back into chaos and re-evolved after his Cloth shattered.

The Saint Cloth of the old universe is no longer able to keep up with him in the new universe.

"besides……"

"The most important point."

Hawke looked at Thor again and smiled as he revealed the important reason why he couldn't fight now: "My girlfriend is still waiting for me. I came here on a trip with her. She's been away for so long and she's worried about me since she hasn't seen me come back."

Thor was slightly taken aback.

next second.

He felt a gaze that made him feel uneasy.

Thor instinctively turned his head to look.

really.

It's simple!
