Shadow of the Beautiful World

Mangogo, the immortal spirit.

Its existence is almost the top secret of Asgard.

When Odin's first daughter, Audrey, Angela, was taken away by the angel Hela, Odin mistakenly thought that his newborn daughter had died, which made the God King lose his mind.

He used the power of the World Tree to tear off the planets of the angels from the branches of the World Tree, and threw them into the void, and then commanded the army of God's Domain, brazenly entering the eternal battle.

It was a crazy time.

Driven by anger, the God King slaughtered countless worlds, forcing Heaven and Hell to even conclude a truce to deal with the crazy God's Domain Legion.

It was also during the endless battle that Odin had his second daughter, Hela.

He brought Hela into the battlefield and trained Hela to be the best general and slayer. At that time, Odin was an angry god.

But then, something happened.

Hela finally couldn't control her ambition and launched a rebellion against her father. In a world slaughtered by Odin and the people of God's Domain, the hundreds of millions of dead souls were unwilling to be destroyed, so they rarely gathered into an immortal evil spirit.

That is the origin of Mangogo.

It roared and rushed out from the dead world, chasing and killing any God's Domain person it saw across the entire range of stars.

It is an evil spirit gathered by resentment, and it will never dissipate until it kills the last God's Domain person and completely destroys Asgard's heritage.

It will not fall down.

This evil spirit is very powerful.

It was weak at first, but the more it hated, the stronger it became, until it grew into a savage curse that even Odin could not solve.

It was a brutal invasion, and Asgard suffered heavy losses.

The God King had to use the power of the World Tree to seal Mangogo on the spot, and that fiasco also made Odin sober from his anger.

But what has been done cannot be undone.

The immortal Mangogo has become a stubborn disease in the heart of the God King. At the last moment of the Battle of the Ten Realms, Odin told Merlin this information, and he hoped that Merlin could help eliminate Mangogo's threat.

But Raven then proposed a very interesting plan.

It was a conspiracy.

New Asgard has already arrived on Earth. If Mangogo breaks through the seal and invades Earth, then Merlin is duty-bound to do everything in his power to stop the monster.

But if the God King encounters some special circumstances.

Like a big snake...

Then, Mangogo, the evil creature, can be used.

It hates all Asgardians, and the big snake is also an Asgardian.

Release Mangogo to entangle the big snake, and the confrontation between the two fierce monsters can buy enough time for the king of gods to make proper arrangements.

After thinking for a while, Odin finally agreed with this plan, and immediately executed it after the big snake appeared in its full glory.

But it's not without cost.

Oh! Kill! Kill!!!

Fully formed Mangogo is an indescribable monster.

It has a yellow body with stretched muscles, but it has bull-like white horns on its head, and only three fingers on its fist, which looks very much like the Minotaur in hell.

But the two are completely different.

Mangogo's head was bright red, like skinned flesh, his eyes were just two pale spots of light, and there was a chilling resentment in them.

It is a monster that fights on grudges.

There is also a mouthful of jagged teeth, and extremely corrosive saliva flows out of the mouth while roaring, looking very disgusting.

But it's powerful.

The big snake was suppressed by it, and this single-minded monster recognized the disgusting aura of the big snake.

This is an Asgardian who must be killed!

It didn't communicate with the big snake at all, and swung its fist, and slammed at the big snake.

Orochi is not a good-tempered person either, facing the monster's provocation, he immediately counterattacked.

But to no avail.

Neither the blow of the warhammer nor the roar of the dread thunder could break Mangogo's form, which had no real form at all.

This guy is a collection of vengeful spirits, a monster that cannot be deduced by common sense.

hum

On the verge of Orochi and Mangogo's deathmatch among the stars, Odin raises the Spear of Eternity and summons the Rainbow Bridge.

He took one last look at the two monsters in the ruins, and then walked into the Rainbow Bridge.

Unleashing Mangogo left the God-King so weak that he was barely able to fight anymore.

As the power of the Yggdrasil began to resist him, Odin used the power that was supposed to guard the realm of the stars to unleash a monster.

The power at the conceptual level has always been very picky, and can even be described as willful.

Odin could clearly feel the dissatisfaction of the World Tree, and he knew that he had to make the final arrangements before this power dissipated.

hum

The colorful rainbow bridge lit up in the Golden Palace of New Asgard on Earth, and the weak Odin fell out of the beam of light. He fell to the ground in embarrassment, and the gun of eternity in his hand was also dropped. out.

The noise immediately alarmed Raven Mu Ning and Hu Jin who were guarding the Golden Palace.

Two black birds flapped their wings and landed beside Odin who was trying to get up. Mu Ning tilted his head, looking at such a miserable boss, the bird seemed to be terrified.

Boss... Boss, what's wrong? Have you been beaten by a big snake? Do you want help?

Go to Thor!

Odin struggled to sit cross-legged, and he threw himself a rune magic to heal his wounds, and said to Mu Ning and Hu Jin standing on his shoulders:

Get him over here...quick!

Quack, let's go now, boss, hold on, don't die suddenly.

While talking nonsense, Mu Ning quickly rushed out of the Golden Palace while flapping his wings.

A few minutes later, amidst the sharp cry of the black bird, Thor, Queen Frigga, and Jane Foster, who was taken to Asgard for refuge, rushed into the hall together.

Father!

Thor was startled when he saw Odin's never-before-seen weakness.

He immediately rushed forward a few steps, half-kneeling in front of his father, waving his hands, and in the beating of golden runes, the healing magic was applied to Odin.

Snapped

Thor's wrist was firmly held by Odin.

The old god-king's one eye fixed on the rune runes dancing on Thor's finger, and he said:

Merlin didn't lie to me. Sure enough, after abandoning the power of Godhead, you really found another way...

Father, don't talk about this.

Thor helped Odin up and sent him to the throne. Queen Frigga looked at her husband distressedly. As a powerful rune witch, she began to use various spells to heal Odin's injuries.

When did you learn rune magic?

The old god king didn't care about his injuries. He stared at his son closely. Facing his father's questioning, Thor replied truthfully:

During the Battle of the Ten Realms, when the continent of Asgard collapsed, it was the Norn Stone that protected me, and the power of the runes protected me from being injured during the collapse of the world.

And after that, every time I fell asleep, I could feel the rune rune echoing in my mind, it was urging me, and I started to study our rune magic.

But my level of rune magic is just getting started.

Thor shrugged, he waved to the weak Jane, and then said to his father:

Father, this is Jane, my wife. You were asleep when she came to Asgard. You should meet her.

Jane? Jane Foster?

The old god king turned his head and looked at Jane.

He could clearly see that the liquid energy of the Stone of Reality was entangled in every inch of Jane's flesh and blood, and this human woman was taken as a host by the Stone of Reality.

But the Infinity Stone was consuming her meager vitality.

Merlin told me about you.

Odin said to Jane:

He doesn't think I should stop the love affair between you and my son, but that can be said later... Thor, come forward!

The God King's tone became low and serious, Thor subconsciously took a step forward, and then saw his father handing him the Eternal Spear in his hand.

This action made Thor's eyes widen, and he didn't understand what his father meant.

I released Mangogo to trap the big snake. You don't have to care about what it is. In short, this behavior made the power of the World Tree begin to leave my body, and the threat of the big snake is imminent, my son.

Odin leaned on the throne, he gasped a few times, and he said to Thor:

The power of the big snake comes from Asgard. As long as the ground under our feet is still there, it will be immortal. How should we use his power to deal with him?

I can't do it! I was terrified of the serpent's return, and the prophecy about it and you, Thor, in that prophecy, you would end up with the serpent in the final battle, walk 9 steps, and finally fall on me in his arms.

The words of the God King made Jane tightly grasp Thor's wrist, and Thor patted his wife's hand, signaling her not to worry.

This prophecy about him had been circulated in Asgard before he was born. Thor never believed in it, and even now that he lost his divine power, he was not disturbed by these rumors.

I have been avoiding that future. For this reason, I even forgave Merlin for what he did to Asgard's domain...just because he promised me that that prophecy would not come true.

Odin fixed his one eye on Thor, and said:

Facts have proved that Merlin is worthy of our trust.

So I want to hand over the kingship to you at this time! Thor Odinson, take the spear of eternity, and immediately embark on the journey that all kings of Asgard must go through.

From Midgard, through the branches of the world tree in Yalfheim, to Jotunheim, there is a dust-covered valley beside the second root of the world tree extending from that ice and snow world. .”

The spring of wisdom is there. The giant Mimir guards the spring, but you must pass the mountain path it guards, drink the spring water, and get the approval of the World Tree! Become the next king of God's Domain after me.

Only in this way can the power of the World Tree bless you, my son. Only in this way can you have the power to protect and fight back before the big snake strikes again.

Odin forced the Eternal Spear into Thor's hand. He patted his son's shoulder and said:

The most important thing is that the power you use does not come from God's Domain. When you fight the big snake, your mother and I will completely destroy New Asgard!

The collapse of this land will cause serious damage to the serpent with the godhead, but you will not become weak because of it. That is the time for decisive victory!

My son, the curse of the serpent will be completely ended in your hands, and you will protect your people with your own strength.

Go, I will wait here for news of your victory.

Wait! Father!

Thor's mind was in a mess, and Odin was telling him too much information.

He raised his head and said to Odin:

You will destroy New Asgard, but you also have a godhead. Once this land is destroyed, you will also...

I've lived long enough, child.

Odin shook his head, he said:

The first half of my life was immersed in being a foolish king, and the second half of my life has been trying to protect my only remaining child, but I did too badly.

Merlin's ridicule is right, Hela's tragedy and Loki's rebellion are all caused by me.

Maybe, maybe this last salvation is the best salvation I can make.

The old God King chuckled, and said:

I am too tired, my son, let me hide, let me unburden the king.

He looked at Thor, and said softly:

Sorry, I let you take over the burden at this critical moment, but Thor! You are the only one who can save the people... Angela is unwilling to return to our family, Hela also has a godhead in her body, and Loki, Loki is dead.

Loki is not dead.

Thor pointed to his feet suspiciously, and he said to his father who seemed to be not so conscious:

After the reality gem attached to Jane, he has been hiding in the basement of the Golden Palace, but he looks like an 8-year-old child.

He hid there and didn't want to see us, saying that the writing of the story should not be disturbed.

Um?

There was a trace of doubt in Odin's one-eyed eyes.

But immediately, a smile appeared on his face, he patted his knee, and said:

Ah, that's it. I see. This is the help Merlin promised us. Maybe... Maybe we don't need to destroy Asgard to win.

But anyway, you must start your journey at once, Thor.

The God King put away his smile, and he said to Thor:

I will let Sif and Heimdall escort you to the Fountain of Wisdom. You must do it. This is not only about Asgard, but also about this world and Merlin's plan.

I don't know what that raven is doing now, but I can be sure that in his plan, you becoming the king of God's Domain is definitely a very important part.

Take your own journey. It's a hard journey, but I believe you won't let your friend down, Thor.

You will be the best king, a better king than me.

I can see that future with one eye!
