Chapter 3719
The current situation of the three major empires is, to some extent, like riding a tiger—difficult to get off. Previously, Asgard had grandly invited many civilizations to a banquet, and then the incident occurred where humans killed the Shi'ar Empire's envoy, right under their very noses. This has led to high attention on the matter, and it is the top headline and the number one trending topic on the interstellar network.
The Mengyu star system is not some remote star system, and the Shi'ar Empire is adept at trade. When the incident occurred, there were quite a few people from other civilizations on Mengyu, which made the interstellar society pay extra attention to this war.
Now that the fighting has reached this point, many civilizations have expressed that the result is not unexpected. Although the three major empires are powerful, humans do not play by the rules, and their individual combat strength is truly too strong; it is feared that the three major empires are going to suffer a defeat this time.
Although the three major empires are also fighting a public opinion war on the network, constantly trying to calm the rumors, the interstellar network is not their personal mouthpiece. Moreover, if they can fight a public opinion war, humans can too. In order to let them fight a beautiful counterattack and salvage their reputation, Jarvis has also been secretly stirring up trouble, being exceptionally active in various discussion groups and under posts, occasionally releasing some internal information.
For example, he released the video of the Phoenix destroying the star system, which instantly caused an uproar, completely suppressing the heat of the three major empires' announcements that painted a picture of peace.
Just as the three major empires wanted to refute the rumors, he released a video from another perspective, which was the Shi'ar Empire's warship colliding with the Kree Empire's warship, again sparking speculation about the relationship between the three major empires and successfully pushing the topic to the top of the list.
The interstellar network is actually similar to the human internet; both are communication methods that inevitably appear when a civilization develops to a certain point. It is just that because the interstellar internet has a larger scale and public opinion control is more difficult, it gave an electronic life like Jarvis room to fish in troubled waters.
Originally, the one most adept at interstellar network public opinion offensives among the three major empires was the Supreme Intelligence, an electronic life, but the Supreme Intelligence had one of its main brains destroyed this time, and at least a small half of its threads cannot run smoothly. It still has to take care of the Kree Empire's huge mess and cannot use all its energy on the network like Jarvis. With one blink of an eye, Jarvis was everywhere.
One moment he plays an insider who knows the specific situation of the war, telling how tragic the last battle was and how heavy the losses of the three major empires were; the next moment he plays an internal staff member of the three major empires, boasting that the three major empires have powerful strength and will definitely retaliate, and will face Earth head-on, beating them until they are scurrying away.
With this back and forth, most interstellar civilizations feel that the three major empires will not let it go and will definitely defeat Earth severely, showing these arrogant interstellar terrorists a thing or two.
This led to the fact that when the three major empires announced they were going to attack the Nine Realms, the public opinion on the network was one-sided disappointment.
"Earth hit you, why are you going to hit the Nine Realms? Isn't this also a disguised form of desertion?"
Jarvis set the tone too high; one moment saying they would judge the Phoenix, the next saying they would capture Magneto alive, and also saying they would launch a full-scale total attack to completely destroy Earth. The fans of the three major empires on the network were full of enthusiasm, just waiting to see how the three major empires, representing justice, would deal with this group of terrorists. As a result, you tell me you are not hitting Earth anymore? What about the promised justice judgment? What about the promised "no one can stop us"?
Announcing the attack plan on the Nine Realms failed to reverse the interstellar public opinion, and the supreme rulers of the three major empires were also very annoyed, but the words had already been said, and they had to fight. The three major empires once again mobilized troops to head towards the Nine Realms.
Because they had some preparation time, they could be said to be foolproof this time, and they brought everything they should bring. And to prevent Earth from returning to defend, gravity anchors and various blockade devices were also fully prepared.
So, what is Asgard doing at this moment?
They are looking forward to it, waiting for their good brother Earth to bring a large number of enemies back, letting them have a good time.
Yes, the Asgardians have no sense of tension that their home is about to be attacked; instead, they are all rubbing their hands, extremely excited. After holding back for so long, there is finally someone decent to give them a beating.
As for whether their home will be pushed over by the three major empires? This is not within their consideration. These reckless men are all thinking about having fun first.
Odin was indeed invited out of the mountain by Thor—it's not that Thor himself cannot fight, mainly because he has more important things to do now. And the old man was also holding back quite a bit; as soon as he heard he could fight, he picked up Gungnir and went.
Thor is currently in the Underworld, which is Hela's territory.
Hela listened to Thor finish the plan and showed a very complicated expression. She first looked up and down at this brother of hers, and then glanced at Loki next to her.
"Why look at me?" Loki raised his eyebrows and said, "This plan is not what I thought of; I'm not that despicable. This is obviously a dirty trick thought up by those humans."
Hela clicked her tongue and said: "They are truly crazy beyond measure, and you are following them in this nonsense. Do Odin and Frigga know about this?"
Thor and Loki looked at each other, Thor coughed and said: "Haven't dared to let them know yet. But anyway, at that time he and the people of the three major empires were fighting fiercely, so he shouldn't be able to pay attention to us."
"Just wait to be beaten." Hela turned around and said, "As long as he doesn't come to trouble me, I will cooperate with you as much as possible. Come with me."
She led Thor and Loki towards the depths of the Underworld. They walked all the way through the barren plains, crossed two dark mountains, and finally, in the basement of Hela's bedroom, saw an incomparably huge wolf.
Fenrir opened his eyes, his yellow vertical pupils filled with eerie patterns. The killing aura on his body made Thor and Loki feel terrified, as if he were the most powerful enemy on their destined path.
This feeling should not have appeared, because the current Thor and Loki are not what they used to be. But standing in front of this giant wolf, they finally understood that those words Schiller said to them were true.
"The future of Ragnarok has never disappeared." Schiller stood in the office and said to Loki, "You have indeed made up for the debt of the World Tree with a huge amount of energy, but the God Clan should not have existed in the first place. You have only infinitely delayed the time of Ragnarok's arrival, but you have not truly eliminated it."
Loki thought silently. He didn't want to admit it, but he still felt that what Schiller said made sense. Creatures like the God Clan, which are almost flawless, should not have appeared in the universe in the first place. Overly powerful strength will bring more chaos, accelerate the entropy increase of the universe, until the universe is destroyed.
Ragnarok is the way of balance in the universe. Everything they are doing now is just delaying, but no one knows how long it can be delayed.
"I have a method that can eliminate future troubles once and for all." Schiller said, "But it depends on whether you are willing to cooperate. If possible, maybe we can use this to pit the three major empires."
"Tell me." Loki took a deep breath and said.
The plan turned twice in Loki's mind, he looked up at Thor and said: "Hela said she can control Fenrir, then our plan is half complete. Next is to find that dark dragon Nidhogg, is he still in the old place?"
"Yes, I saw it when I went to the World Tree before, but because we have been compensating the World Tree with energy, it hasn't been able to gnaw through the roots, not even a bit of skin. This time it all depends on it."
"Schiller said that Jormungandr is ready, if it's not convenient for us to store Nidhogg here, putting it there is fine too."
"Why does he always like to collect these strange things?"
"Who told us Asgard always has these strange things? Oh, right, and have you found that rooster called Gullinkambi?"
"Not at all. Besides Earth, where else are there roosters? Otherwise, let's go to Earth and find an ordinary rooster, and make do."
"Can you have some respect for the magic ritual? Is this something you can just make do with?"
The two brothers walked towards the World Tree while talking.
At this time, the three major empires had arrived at the city walls. Odin stood at the bow of the warship, holding Gungnir, with Asgardian warriors behind him.
The Skrull Emperor saw him almost at first glance. His face sank, and he said into the communication channel: "Long time no see, Odin, I thought you had already died of old age."
"If I were really dying of old age, you should worry about your own head." Odin laughed loudly, "Stop talking nonsense, let me see if you pieces of scrap metal have made any progress! Heimdall!!!"
Accompanied by Odin's roar, the Bifrost flashed. The next second, Odin stabbed his spear through the Skrull Emperor's flagship. Countless Asgardian warriors boarded, the light of divine power shining in the universe.
"This old madman!" The Skrull Emperor cursed while running away under the protection of his guards; it had been too long since he fought Asgard, and he had forgotten the style of these reckless men. Why did he open his mouth!
This time Odin assembled almost all of Asgard's troops—actually, it was almost Asgard's entire population, with about ten thousand God Clan warriors following Odin into the battlefield.
Don't look at the small number, it can't be compared with the millions of warships from the three major empires, but almost every God Clan warrior can fight one against a thousand. When fighting together, the efficiency is higher, and a five-man squad can directly clear a large area.
Those warships of the three major empires were like paper in their hands; a casual punch could explode the shield, followed by a slash, and the alloy shell would shatter at the sound. The light of divine power cut through the warship's skin like a knife through butter, encountering no obstacles, and the warships were directly chopped into pieces.
And the elite squad led by Odin was even more like entering an empty land. As the Bifrost light flickered, every short-distance jump could accurately strike important targets.
Odin, the All-Father, had his talent and experience in fighting fully maxed out. Those space and jump blockade devices that had successfully trapped Earth were destroyed by him before they could even be deployed. This resulted in no one being able to restrict the Bifrost. Without mobility, more important equipment was struck, and for a time, the three major empires were beaten back step by step.
I don't know when, Earth had already flown to the periphery of the Nine Realms. Watching this scene, sighs also frequently sounded in the human command center.
"Asgard is too powerful. It's a pity that they have few people, if they could also have billions of people..."
"Then the universe wouldn't need to exist, haven't you heard of Ragnarok? It's because this race is too powerful that the universe can't accommodate them, which is why it wants to destroy them. If we humans were also this powerful, we probably wouldn't be able to escape either."
"Fortunately, most of us are weak, and a small part are powerful, I think this model is not bad. No matter how powerful that small part is, they won't be targeted by the universe."
"I guess the universe didn't expect that someone among us could be so powerful. Although our ordinary human bodies are weak, our IQ and learning ability are still top-notch, otherwise how could we build a faster-than-light engine?"
"Also, we didn't hold back those superhumans. This time we didn't really use them to exert force, we ourselves beat the three major empires until they were scurrying away..."
