Chapter 1439: The Growing Thor (Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket!! Please Subscribe!!! Please Recommend!!)
Thor values his family very much, and this can be seen in his attitude towards his hapless brother. He never thought that he actually had a family.
"So, I really have a sister?" Thor asked, "Her name is Hela?"
So this is all you have to do with?
Everyone else was a little speechless, especially Poseidon Niord. He said there was a lot of nonsense, wasn't the point focused on Odin's dark history? Why do you only focus on this?
But Sif, who was more familiar with Thor, quickly figured it out.
What does this mean? Loki has done too much, right? But did Thor care? If that fool Loki hadn't been angry with Odin and refused to admit his mistakes, he would have been released long ago.
That’s right! Thor is actually not a righteous partner at all.
Ah, that's a bit too much. He will indeed be angry because of the bad things Loki has done, and he will not hesitate to use his strength to correct those mistakes, but in comparison, he cares more about his family.
Just like Loki had done so many bad things, when Kai wanted to kill Loki, Thor was the first to stop him. What if you replaced Loki with someone else? Thor was probably the first to blow that man's head off.
He is so distinct from each other!
Thor himself makes no secret of this.
Volstagg knew Thor, so he quickly said: "Thor, Hela is different. Compared with Hela, Loki is just a low-class little bastard. She is crazy!"
"I don't allow you to say that about Loki! Although he is a bit stupid, he is not out of place, right?" Thor immediately said righteously.
Volstagg said speechlessly: "Why don't you say this in front of everyone on Earth?"
"Hmm..." Thor immediately fell into deep thought. Compared with the villains who are full of evil, it is easier to forgive a low-life gangster. "I'm sorry, I was careless. Loki is just a low-class bastard!"
Niord was speechless. Are you talking to me about cross talk here?
So I said a lot, what are your thoughts?
"But I still want to see her...it's been thousands of years, she must be lonely, right?" Thor's original intention has not changed. He really wanted to see this sister whom he had never met before.
"If I were you, I would rather never hear her name for the rest of my life!" Vostagg said seriously.
Fandral was a little surprised. In his impression, Volstagg was the kind of man who would face the enemy with a smile no matter how strong it was. The person Asgardians admire the most is always the one who faces powerful enemies, even if he knows he will die, but still faces death with the most intense emotions!
Volstagg was undoubtedly that kind of person.
But such a strong man is actually so afraid of this Hela.
"That Hela...is it really that scary?"
Fandral asked quietly.
"Terrible?" Vostagg fell into memories. He joined the battlefield as a soldier and witnessed the extremely tragic war with his own eyes. He first annihilated Hela's army in Vanaheim with others.
He still can't forget the angry and incomprehensible roars of those compatriots before they died.
After that, he followed his seniors into the final battle to destroy Hela.
He was lucky. When he set foot on the battlefield, it was already the final stage of the battle. Unfortunately for him, even in the end, Hela still killed most of the warriors present... He witnessed the massacre with his own eyes.
He himself was severely injured by Hela and almost didn't survive.
"You have no idea what kind of existence Hela is. She is immortal. No matter how many times we pierce her, she will remain safe and sound. The Valkyrie, once the strongest force in the Nine Realms..."
“Valkyrie?!
"Thor immediately gave up when he heard the name.
This is of course not some random thing Thor thought of, but Valkyrie's status in Asgard is roughly equivalent to what Captain America is to Americans. Many fairy tales and legends in Asgard are related to the Valkyrie. Even now, everyone says that the Valkyrie will select the strongest warriors to enter Valhalla!
Valhalla.
Unlike the legend of Valhalla on Earth, Asgard does not have a place called Valhalla. For them, Valhalla is also a legend.
Legend has it that only the most heroic warriors who die on the battlefield will be taken to Valhalla by the Valkyries.
Regarding this point, the legends of Earth and Asgard are consistent.
There is paradise, a paradise only for warriors!
Therefore, the Valkyrie's status in Asgard is equivalent to the status of angels on Earth.
They are symbols of strength, purity, and beauty.
All children in Asgard dream of joining the Valkyrie.
Well, including Thor.
"When I was a kid, I always wanted to join the Valkyries, until I knew that the Valkyries only want girls..."
That's probably it.
Volstagg curled his lips. He was different from those brats. He had seen real Valkyries and fought alongside them...well, that meant they had appeared on the same battlefield. But when he stepped onto the battlefield, all the Valkyries had died.
He still clearly remembered the heroic appearance of those Valkyries.
They all rode Pegasus and fell from the sky in the golden light reflected by their armor, tearing all the enemies into pieces.
Unfortunately, they met Hela that time.
"Those Valkyries rushed towards Hela in groups, and died one after another in her hands. Moreover, at that time, Hela did not have Thor's hammer in her hand."
"Thor's hammer???" Now even Hogan was curious. He had always thought that Thor's hammer was a magical weapon that Odin had specially asked the dwarves to build for Thor, but he did not expect it to appear so early.
There was no way. For thousands of years, Thor and Thor's hammer were too deeply bound. Everyone subconsciously thought that Thor's hammer was Thor's exclusive weapon.
So much so that everyone forgot that the history of Thor's hammer might be longer than that of Asgard today.
"Thor's hammer?" Thor noticed the element again. He picked up the hammer and looked around a little uncomfortably, as if he was afraid that someone would snatch it away. "Has Hela also used Thor's hammer?"
"Of course!" Volstagg didn't say this before because he was afraid that it would implicate Hela. Now that Thor knew it, some things could be said. "In fact, every generation of Asgard's crown prince holds Thor's hammer. Your father Odin once fought with Thor's hammer, and so did Hela."
"You guys...what are you doing here?" Njord was a little impatient. He originally planned to uncover the dark history of the old man Odin, and then watch the show himself, but...Odin's stupid son didn't care at all!
There's no show to watch.
In this case, Njord was too lazy to see these idiots.
So he waved his hand and drove them away.
Wait until a group of people left the temple.
Frey apologized for his father.
"I'm really sorry...Father died because of my uncle...Anyway, I'm very sorry."
Thor waved his hand indifferently: "No need to apologize, my cousin. I can understand the mood of the sea god. Family is the most important anyway."
Although Thor is a little bit lacking in wisdom, he is still very nice. It is very easy to get the favor of others. In fact, it is precisely because of his boldness and honesty that he is more likely to get the favor of others. This is very important.
Like Loki, he looks fair and handsome. But his temperament makes people know that he is a calculating boy with a scheming heart. No one will be friends with such a person, especially when Loki himself is not big-minded, he seems even more petty.
After Frey sincerely apologized, he took them to the embassy residence, and then he went to work.
He is the crown prince of Vanaheim, and it is impossible for him to accompany them all the time. He has a lot of things to do!
With Frey's departure.
Thor's previous pretending to be honest and indifferent collapsed all of a sudden.
This stunned his friends.
I didn't expect Thor to have been pretending before.
"Thor...you..." Sif asked hesitantly.
This doesn't fit Thor's personality!
He can actually pretend in front of others!
"Don't be surprised. Although I'm not smart, I've lived on Earth for such a long time and learned something."
He lived on Earth for a year. A year is not long for Asgardians, after all, their average lifespan is several thousand years. But he was sealed by Odin and became an ordinary person, so this year was long enough.
In such a weak situation, Thor learned a lot of things in order to adapt to his new identity.
He may have learned more in this year than in his whole life.
For example, he never thought that one day he would work hard to survive... His salary was not high at that time, after all, he was just a cadet.
In addition, he spent money lavishly and had no concept of money. Before the first month's salary was paid, he owed others a large amount of foreign debt. If it weren't for his good looks and strong body, which allowed him to meet many "kind" young women in the bar, he would probably starve to death in the first month because of lack of money!
Such situations are everywhere.
These are situations that Thor has never encountered before, let alone encountering them, he has never even thought about them.
Some people say that adversity is not worth recalling, and even less valuable. This statement is absolutely biased.
Because adversity can often teach people more things.
After all, if you don't struggle hard in adversity, you might really be doomed!
Thor covered his face with a stiff smile... He likes to laugh, but laughing from the heart and forcing a smile are two completely different experiences. They are both smiles, but forcing a smile makes Thor feel that the muscles on his face are almost dead.
"That old guy obviously wants to laugh at us. How can I agree with him?"
Thor actually saw that Njord had bad intentions a long time ago, so he would suppress the shock in his heart and act crazy there.
It's not that he is really afraid of that ridicule, but... He is the crown prince of Asgard, and he no longer represents himself. So even if it's just for face, he has to do it. To be honest, Thor doesn't like that, but... This is what he learned on Earth, people always have to compromise.
Sif and Volstagg were pleasantly surprised to see Thor like this.
There is no doubt that a king without scheming is definitely not a good king.
And Thor is becoming more and more mature.
But before their smiles could be revealed, they were beaten back the next second.
"Volstagg, you said before that my sister, Hela, was sealed. Do you know where she is?"
Sure enough, Thor is still the same Thor.
Sif and Volstagg looked at each other, not knowing whether they were disappointed or relieved.
After all, they liked Thor like this, but as a king, they couldn't let Thor stay so simple forever.
"Thor, I can understand your feelings when you heard that you have a sister, but you have to understand that Hela and Loki are completely different! Loki did those things just to quarrel with you. Even if Loki wanted to kill you, it was just to get the love of Odin and Frigga. But Hela will only kill Odin and Frigga! She will even slaughter the entire Asgard! For her, if she can't rule the living, she can rule the dead!"
This is also one of the reasons why Odin can't stand Hela.
Odin has also made efforts to correct Hela. He hopes that Hela can understand the meaning of rule. So he handed Helheim to her to rule.
Yes, it is the world used to seal Hela. It originally belonged to Hela.
But she doesn't understand the true meaning of rule at all.
Her cruel rule was totally unacceptable to the residents of Helheim, so various rebellions and uprisings continued. Odin was happy to see it happen. He originally thought that in this way, Hela would understand that ruling is not only about high pressure and terror, but also requires kindness and tolerance.
Frustration education? Odin is the best at this.
Hela grew up in frustration.
In the end, I don’t know if it was because of the previous frustration education, which was too good, that Hela formed an indomitable and firm character. Hela didn’t know what compromise was at all, and she thought that kindness and tolerance were bullshit.
Only strength is the only one.
In the face of the resistance that came one after another, she chose to suppress it strongly.
But this thing didn’t work at all.
The harsher she was, the more intense the resistance.
The people of Helheim were living a life worse than death under her rule, so it was better to resist than to sit and wait for death.
Then Hela solved it once and for all.
Since she couldn’t rule the living, she ruled the dead!
She killed all the residents of Helheim, and then used her power as the god of death to resurrect them! Let them become her puppets, always obey her orders, and never resist!
This approach made Odin completely desperate.
This is also the reason why Odin was so determined and cruel to Hela.
She is completely hopeless!
She would rather rule the walking dead than change herself.
