Chapter 264 Thor's Resurrection

Thor walked calmly toward the Destroyer.

His steps were firm and steady, his heart filled with endless sorrow and regret, yet he was absolutely determined. The Asgardians, saved by Thor, were in unbearable pain, weeping as they watched Thor face his death as promised.

Both Hate and Skye were heavy-hearted, unable to bear the thought of their impending death.

Only Xia Zuo completely relaxed, wishing he could cover his face with his hands and express his joy at successfully achieving his goal.

It was truly remarkable to make Thor, with his stubborn mind, realize that life is greater than glory.

At that very moment, Odin, far away in his coffin in the basement of Asgard, reacted, shedding a single tear of joy:

My silly son has finally started to understand things a little. It's not easy.

At the same time, under Odin's will, the divine seal placed on Mjolnir was broken, and the divine power belonging to Thor was fully released.

Mjolnir suddenly soared into the sky, flying at supersonic speed towards the battlefield not far away.

Just as the Destroyer, controlled by Loki, strode up to Thor and raised its massive metal foot to crush him, Mjolnir arrived.

Mjolnir, forged from the core of a star, possessed infinite mass. It struck the Destroyer at supersonic speed, and the irresistible impact nearly shattered the Destroyer.

This is not surprising, as in the realm of Asgard, Mjolnir's rank among the artifacts is no lower than that of the Destroyer, and is even second only to Gungnir, who represents Odin's power.

Thor, who was originally ready to die, saw his beloved Meowth hammer fly in front of him and even playfully put the handle into his hand.

Thor's heart suddenly came alive; he didn't want to die anymore.

As his thoughts shifted, the power of Thor within Mjolnir surged, and the immense divine power flowed into Thor's body like a great river entering the sea.

As Thor's divine power surged in, divine armor plates appeared on his body, coalescing into a magnificent set of divine armor.

Armor formed from divine power covered Thor's body, changing his previously disheveled appearance and restoring his former majesty and glory.

Thor, who wields the power of thunder, has been resurrected!

A powerful aura emanated from Thor, carrying the awe-inspiring might of lightning, sweeping across the entire battlefield.

Even without the power of thunder, Thor's aura is strong enough to be compared to the Hulk, and it is the Hulk who swelled to the limit of anger during the Battle of Wall Street.

After sensing that terrifying aura, Abomination couldn't help but think of Hulk and the past when he was beaten up by the Hulk. He couldn't help but feel nervous and even felt his limbs go weak.

As Thor unleashed his Thunder God aura, the once clear sky suddenly became overcast, darkening into pitch black. The clouds, crackling with lightning, pressed down on everyone, making it hard for them to breathe.

Loki witnessed this through the Destroyer, and after a brief moment of astonishment, he flew into a rage: "Thor! You lied to me! You lied to me, the god of deception!"

"I'm going to kill you! I'm determined to kill you!"

The Destroyer's mask reopened, powerful divine energy coalesced, and a torrent of destructive light erupted forth.

Unlike the goddess Sif, who had to dodge, Thor, who possessed the qualities of a god-king, neither dodged nor evaded, but instead charged straight at her with Mjolnir.

The indestructible Mjolnir withstood the destructive light and once again struck the Destroyer to the ground.

Thor grabbed the strap of Mjolnir's handle, swung it like a windmill, and soared into the sky, heading towards the lightning-streaked clouds.

After riding Mjolnir into the clouds, countless arcs of electricity converged on Thor, and the immense power of lightning gathered on Mjolnir, completely making up for the lightning power that Shazor had forcibly taken away.

Mjolnir, now fully charged, was even more delighted. It didn't let go of the lightning it couldn't contain, and concentrated the lightning on the surface of the hammer.

Joyful, leaping arcs of electricity circled Thor's hammer, repelling and drawing closer to form different rings of lightning, reflecting Mjolnir's cheerful mood and eager excitement.

Thor, the hammer god, lifted Mjolnir high, making the Ring of Lightning even brighter and drawing all the lightning from the clouds.

Thor's hammer is ready to strike with all its might!

At the same time, the Destroyers on the ground also gathered their maximum divine power. When they transformed the divine power into light of destruction, the Destroyers seemed unable to withstand the enormous energy, and every piece of their armor trembled slightly.

Thor, hidden in the clouds, lowered his eyes, his gaze fixed majestically on the Destroyer, his eyes radiating lightning.

Thor's hammer, raised high, swung down, gathering lightning that followed, accompanied by a deafening roar of thunder.

With Mjolnir leading the way, Thor brought down a deluge of lightning, like a devastating thunderbolt.

Just then, the Destroyer completed its transformation of divine power into light of destruction. Trembling, it raised its head, its open visor facing Thor descending from the sky, and unleashed the most powerful beam of destruction of the day.

Skye's attention was drawn to the Destroyer's tremors, and she instinctively raised her hand, wanting to add more force to the Destroyer's vibrations.

Fortunately, Xia Zuo reacted quickly and interrupted the girl's spellcasting in time.

The Destroyer, now with Odin's tacit approval, has unleashed its power to an extremely high degree, but without Odin himself as the core of its power operation, it relies entirely on the strength of its own material to restrain that terrifying divine power.

In other words, the Destroyer has reached its limit.

Although Skye's power was not as great as the Destroyer's, at this crucial moment, her shockwave was the final straw that broke the camel's back for the Destroyer.

With just a slight amplification of the Destroyer's armor vibrations, it would be burst apart by the immense divine power it had gathered.

The problem is, the immense divine power that burst the Destroyer didn't simply disappear.

Once the divine power is freed from its restraints, will it expand, transform, and evolve, and in what form will it ultimately erupt? Xia Zuo doesn't know, nor does he want to know.

But Shazo knew very well that it would be a terrible disaster, so he intervened to stop Skye's actions.

Once the girl's slender, fair fingers were grasped, her rationality returned, and she suppressed the impulse in her heart.

Skye tilted her head and looked at her boss, sticking out her tongue cutely: "Sorry, I acted impulsively, I acted impulsively."

Xia Zuo glared at her fiercely, as if to say: I'll punish you properly when we get back!

Undisturbed, the Destroyer successfully launched its destructive beam, a golden light shooting into the sky and colliding with the descending lightning.

The indestructible light of destruction was no match for the dazzling lightning. The powerful pillar of light was shattered by the even more powerful Thor's hammer, turning into specks of golden light that scattered and disappeared.

Thor used his hammer, Mjolnir, to unleash countless bolts of lightning and shatter the light of destruction head-on.

Taking advantage of the moment when the Destroyer was attacking with all its might, he swung Mjolnir and slammed it hard into the Destroyer's visor.

The almost indestructible Urujin offered only a brief resistance to Thor's hammer before being overwhelmed by its immense power, with all the armor plates flying off from head to toe.

Moreover, the flying armor plates were visibly deformed, and the divine radiance on the shattered Destroyer armor plates scattered on the ground gradually dimmed, clearly indicating that they had been completely damaged.

Without the blessing of divine power, the Destroyer's remains were no longer divine artifacts, but had become nothing more than a pile of scrap metal.

Despite the fact that this pile of scrap metal was made of precious Uru gold, it did not stop the people of Asgard from despising and disdaining it.

Urujin is certainly precious, but for the Asgardians, whose native product is Urujin, what is precious is not the metal itself, but the technology used to process it.

These advanced technologies are in the hands of the dwarves, and only their star furnaces can heat Uru gold to the point of melting before it can be refined and cast.

Urugin is not only strong and durable, but also the most elastic and tough metal in the universe. Only the most skilled blacksmiths among the dwarves can mold Urugin into the desired shape and infuse it with corresponding divine power, making it a true artifact.

Starting the Star Forge or hiring the best dwarven blacksmiths will come at a great cost.

If these armor plates are merely deformed and have not lost Odin's divine power, the difficulty of repair is not too high, and they are fully worth repairing.

But Thor used all his strength in his attack, not only deforming the armor plates but also dispelling the Odin's divine power that was attached to them.

As a result, the difficulty of repair far exceeded that of recasting, and to the Asgardians, it was already a worthless piece of junk.

But Xia Zuo had his eye on them. He secretly spread out a large net of electromagnetic force and collected more than a hundred pieces of the Destroyer Armor scattered on the ground.

Xia Zuo carefully put away the armor plates, placed his hand on the hard plates, and felt a surge of joy.

For him, this harvest was extremely satisfying. He not only obtained the precious Urukin, but also learned the knowledge of the world's deepest mysteries from Odin.

Getting freebies is so satisfying!

The Destroyer was destroyed, Thor returned, and became even more powerful. Thor's friends and comrades were all overjoyed and had tears in their eyes.

Everyone, including the goddess Sif, greeted Thor with smiles and embraced him warmly, welcoming their leader back.

Realizing the battle was over, S.H.I.E.L.D. agents returned in their new cars. Coulson noticed the change in atmosphere and ordered the other agents to stop at a distance.

He drove Jane Foster and Eric Selvig to the scene himself.

In this joyful atmosphere, an excited Thor publicly confessed his feelings and confirmed his romantic relationship with Jane Foster.

Thor's obliviousness made the faces of all the gods and humans in Asgard twitch, especially since his fiancée, the goddess Sif, was right there.

Even the abomination, unaware of this secret, sensed something was amiss, but Thor, immersed in the sweetness of love, remained completely oblivious.

Fortunately, Thor remembered that defeating the Destroyer was not the end. Only by defeating Loki, who had stolen Odin's power and was manipulating the Destroyer to hunt Thor down, could everything be finally resolved.

He couldn't afford to linger with his girlfriend any longer, and hurriedly set off on his journey with his comrades.

Before leaving, Thor approached Abomination and laughed, praising him: "Brother, although you are indeed a bit ugly, I greatly admire your bravery and wisdom. Without your help, we could not have defeated the Destroyer this time."

"Once we defeat Loki, we'll definitely invite you to Asgard. There, I'll treat you to the finest wine and the most spectacular gladiatorial combat!"

Hate blinked, gave Xia Zuo an innocent look, and finally could only smile wryly and agree: "Okay, Thor!"

I'm really looking forward to my trip to Asgard.

On the contrary, the meticulous goddess Sif knew that the greatest help in the battle came from Shazo and Skye, who were standing at a distance, and that the hatred was clearly led by Shazo.

She walked gracefully to Shazo, performed a proper aristocratic bow, and said with her head bowed, "Asgard will never forget your help."

Xia Zuo replied with a smile, "No need, I received payment in advance."

He casually pulled out a metal card engraved with the Flying Thunder God's mark and handed it to Goddess Sif, saying, "This is my personal contact card. If you need my help on Earth in the future, you can inject your divine power into it, and I will know immediately and arrive as soon as possible."

Sif played with it for a few moments, then smiled and said, "Thank you."

"I don't have anything like that, but I have some reputation in Asgard. If you need help in Asgard, you can tell anyone, and I'll know."

After saying this, the goddess bowed again, then turned and followed Thor.

As Thor raised Mjolnir and proclaimed Heimdall's name with divine power, the pillar of light from the Bifrost crashed down, taking all the Asgardians with him.

This journey will once again trigger a family feud within the royal family, Jotunheim, the kingdom of giants, will narrowly escape death, and the Bifrost, Asgard's strategic weapon, will collapse and disintegrate.

Without the Rainbow Bridge to transport troops, Asgard's rule over the Nine Realms became merely nominal, and the Nine Realms gradually moved towards independence.

However, none of this concerned Shazo. He greeted Coulson, put on his slingshot, drew a circle, and returned to the Legion's base in New York with Skye and Abomination.

Once she was sure she was back at her familiar base, Skye finally spoke, asking, "Boss, you gave them your spacetime marker, were you planning to raid Asgard?"

Xia Zuo shook his head and said, "How can you say that? I just wanted to test how far the Flying Thunder God Technique can reach."

"And what I really want to know is whether it's possible to cross the void between planets."

Skye asked, "And what was the result?"

Xia Zuo spread his hands and said regretfully, "The result is—it doesn't work."

"As soon as they left, my sense of my Flying Thunder God Mark disappeared. I don't know if it was because the distance was too far or because it was blocked by Asgard's protective shield."

c

"Although this experiment failed, we gained a lot from our participation in it."

Xia Zuo chuckled and pulled out a thick stack of twisted and broken armor plates: "The Destroyer's armor plates are made of Urukin, the most suitable metal in the universe for forging divine artifacts."
