Chapter 205: Granting Fel Power, Arriving at Asgard

During the ensuing voyage, Sargeras was deeply researching the power gem, while Luode would boredly chat with Yongdu, Rocket, Groot, Star Lord, and a few others.

As for Azeroth, they usually stay in the room, continuing to digest the energy of the power gem within their body; although they are merely a soul form, for a world soul, the soul is the most important thing.

Therefore, she absorbed the power gem's energy and could also digest this energy to strengthen her own soul.

"So boss, you're a demigod who can live for tens of thousands of years." Rocket took a sip of beer, looked at Luode and asked.

"Exactly! I'm a demigod, the kind with great strength."

"Looks like my future is limitless. Boss, what do you want me to do? Give me a heads‑up!" Rocket, legs crossed, looked at Luode and asked.

"For now, I want you to help remodel an arms factory—what's the tech level like there? They have laser weapons and also gunpowder weapons." The pirate world's tech is truly freaky.

"What a joke! You haven't mistaken gunpowder weapons, have you? That old junk? I can improve laser weapons for you and help build an arms factory—no problem."

"But gunpowder weapons, come on! I don't want to mess with that old junk." Rocket showed an expression of utter bewilderment.

"What a joke, letting him improve the arms factory is fine, but forget about gunpowder weapons—he doesn't like playing with outdated stuff."

"Cough cough! The tech level over there is rather bizarre—there are orbital weapons, laser weapons, but also matchlock guns and antique cannons."

"A large number of navy soldiers still use those 18th‑19th century old‑style rifles, and the cannons fire old‑style projectiles."

"Truly bizarre, but I've got this under control—easy and pleasant." Rocket, legs crossed, said.

"Mr. Luode, if you want some weapons, we Cosmic Scavengers can actually help."

"We can get you plenty of cheap, effective weapons." Yongdu flashed a mouthful of gold teeth and said.

"You've got the wrong person, buddy; having this little guy produce from scratch is worse than buying ready‑made—we Cosmic Scavengers have plenty of connections; we can get any weapon."

"As long as you pay, I can find you a large quantity of weapons—there are plenty of weapons traded on the cosmic black market."

"Oh, I almost forgot about you—how about you also help me find a batch of goods? What do you want as payment, or cosmic star coins?" Luode patted Yongdu's shoulder and said.

"Speaking of payment, boss, that green energy—can I learn it?" Yongdu's eyes lit up and he asked.

"That incredibly destructive power—once he witnessed it, he set his mind on mastering it."

"So, you want to learn fel energy?" Luode glanced at Yongdu, somewhat surprised.

"This guy actually wants to learn fel energy—looks like the earlier battle between Sargeras and Ego gave him quite a shock."

"That stuff can also be learned—I thought it was his innate divine power!" Rocket, sitting nearby, also became interested.

"He also saw the scene when Sargeras unleashed his might, hanging that so‑called cosmic deity and beating it up; that green energy's destructive force was enormous."

"Exactly, this power can be learned and cultivated, but it corrodes the body somewhat."

"and if one isn't careful, they'll become addicted to it, unable to break free, corroded by this energy into a demon." Luode gave a brief introduction to fel energy for the few.

"The risk of infection by fel energy is still high, and unlike the pirate world, here you cannot turn demons infected by fel energy into your own power."

"I am Groot." The treeman Groot patted the little raccoon's shoulder and shook his head at him—meaning needed no words.

"Alright! Alright! I get it."

"What did this guy just say?" Yongdu looked at the little raccoon.

"Groot said, that power is extremely dangerous; he senses it is the bane of life—best not to learn it."

"Isn't that perfect? We Cosmic Scavengers happen to need this power."

"What a joke—our Cosmic Scavengers have their brains stuck in their waistbands; the more dangerous the power, the more interested they are."

"Moreover, he craves a supernatural power too much!"

"Teaching you this power isn't out of the question—what can I get?"

"I'll work for you from now on—what do you want? Just tell me, and I'll take my underlings from the Cosmic Scavengers to find it." Yongdu said.

"Sure, I'll teach you some fel energy." Luode chuckled, took out an empty cup, then poured some green unknown liquid into it.

"Uh! What is this green, gooey stuff?"

"Looks like the blood of some animal."

"This is called fel blood, the blood of a being known as the Abyssal Lord; drink it and you can command fel energy—the simplest method."

"Now that I have the Burning Legion at my back, Luode has plenty of this fel blood— as much as you want. Yongdu, face full of excitement, lifted the fel blood, took a deep breath, and drank it."

"After consuming the fel blood, Yongdu's body immediately exhibited a violent reaction—green fel light flowed through his veins, and even his eyes turned the green of fel energy."

"Luode quickly placed his hand on Yongdu's shoulder, infused some life energy, and balanced his internal condition."

"After a few minutes, the green light in Yongdu's eyes faded, and some fel markings appeared, inlaid on his blue skin."

"I feel it—an energy circulating within my body."

"Congratulations, you have successfully acquired a supernatural power, becoming a warlock; now I can teach you some fel magic."

"First, we have three specializations: Destruction, Demonology, and Affliction—demonology you needn't consider, as you can't summon demons in this world."

"Affliction and Destruction specializations—pick one to study." Luode said.

"Which is more powerful and easier to use against enemies?"

"Destruction warlocks excel at various fire attacks, unleashing fel fire; as for affliction warlocks, their attacks are more esoteric, imposing various curses to torment enemies." Luode said.

"I choose the affliction warlock—it suits me better." Yongdu said.

"No problem—I'll teach you some spells; after we part, I'll give you a spell manual, you just study it yourself, and thereafter you'll work for me."

"Yongdu nodded upon hearing it, indicating to Luode that as long as it doesn't violate the Cosmic Scavengers' most basic standards, he'll do anything."

"Even if we were to wage a cosmic war, he could hire a large band of mercenaries; Luode's first task for them would be to get him a batch of weapons, while also gathering some intelligence from the cosmos."

"Fel magic now has its first user in the Marvel Universe."

"After another few days of voyage, everyone arrived at Asgard."

"At that moment, the broadcast inside the spaceship automatically sounded."

"You have entered the sacred Asgard territory; turn back immediately, or we will launch an attack."

"We are here to visit God King Odin."

"Leave Asgard at once! I won't repeat myself a second time."

Obviously, Yama is easy to see, but the little ghosts are hard to deal with; the guards of Asgard simply didn't take a liking to Luode and the others.

"We are also gods; we wish to pay a visit to God King Odin." Azeroth stood beside Luode and spoke.

Just kidding, I and Sargeras are world souls, and I have come down as a complete soul; my life level is even higher than Odin's.

Not to mention myself; even Luode surpasses the vast majority of people in this realm.

Asgard's side fell silent for a moment, then a low, deep voice sounded; this time it was clearly a different person coming to negotiate with Luode and the others.

"I am Heimdall, guardian of the Rainbow Bridge. What is your purpose? You two God Kings, and this young god."

Heimdall's eyes are very special; he can see inside the other party's spaceship.

There is a pet rabbit, a treant, and a man with special divine power, and a Cosmic Scavenger; these few are nothing. (Asgardians would mistake a rocket for a rabbit, that's an Easter egg from a movie.) What really matters are the remaining three, two of whom are clearly God King–level beings, gods of very high rank.

Moreover, the other party's life form seems to be merely an avatar.

The remaining one has a life level comparable to Thor, perhaps even stronger; from him I sensed both life and destruction, two forces coexisting.

This strange combination made Heimdall not dare to be negligent.

"We wish to meet God King Odin; we come with good intentions. There is something we hope to get his help with." Luode spoke.

"Please wait a moment; I will ask the God King if he is willing to see you." After saying that, Heimdall ended the call with Luode and the others.

Then he immediately went to the God King's hall and met God King Odin.

"Your Highness God King, that's the situation; how should we handle these three foreign gods?"

"Since they are also gods, coming to Asgard makes them guests; go and bring them in." After a moment's thought, Odin said.

His life is about to end, and his two sons—one is imprisoned in the great jail, the other lacks the strength to oppose his eldest daughter.

These foreign gods might be befriended; in any case, first see what they want. After obtaining the God King's approval, the Rainbow Bridge was quickly opened, leading Luode and the others into Asgard.

"Welcome, three gods, to Asgard."
