Chapter 62: The Beginning of War
In a dark area of the universe, a huge fleet was docking here.
In the largest main ship, a tall purple sweet potato was listening to the report of his subordinate Ebony Maw.
"Great father, we have already found out that Odin, the god-king of the Nine Realms, is dead."
Although the face of the Ebony Maw was ugly his words and deeds were very elegant. They gave people a noble feeling.
As for why he called Thanos Father, it was because Thanos was his adoptive father.
The five Black Order generals were actually the godsons of Thanos.
"Really? Are you sure it's not fake news?"
After hearing the report of Ebony Maw, Thanos turned around and confirmed it from him again.
His huge body cast a large shadow, giving people a huge sense of oppression.
When facing Thanos, even Ebony Maw was a little panicked.
But soon he nodded.
"Yes, it is clear that Odin is really dead."
After listening to the words of Ebony Maw, Thanos nodded, but his inner excitement did not show.
'After so long? The old guy finally died.'
God knew how much Thanos longed for Odin to die soon.
In a very early time, when Thanos had just hit upon the idea of the Infinity Stones.
After learning that the space stone among the infinity stones was in a place called the earth. Thanos couldn't help but want to take this stone for himself.
Unfortunately, the young Thanos met Odin and was taught a lesson.
That was why Thanos did not go to the earth in person at the beginning. Otherwise, he would have died long ago.
Those fleets sent to the earth were shattered by Odin before they got close to the solar system and turned into countless space junk.
They were still floating outside the orbit of the solar system.
If Thanos was there, the consequences would not be better.
Since that incident, Thanos knew that if he wanted to collect all the infinity stones, Odin was a hurdle that he couldn't get around.
As he couldn't fight, he could only wait.
Finally, after waiting for so many years, Odin finally died.
The excited Thanos could not wait to drive the spaceship to the earth immediately and take the infinity stone.
However, Thanos quickly resisted his urge. He had to do it step by step.
After suffering a reckless loss, Thanos was much smarter.
Even the collection of infinity stones had been well planned in detail.
If he only took one step at a time, Thanos believed that he would succeed in the end. Because for him, it was his destiny!
"Ebony Maw, you go to Nidavellir and meet those dwarves. So that they can start forging Infinity Glove."
Thanos told Ebony Maw that forging the Infinity Glove was the first step in his plan.
If there was no Infinity Glove, even if he collected the six Infinity stones, they would be useless.
"Yes, I will do it now."
After Ebony Maw took the order, he quickly walked down.
For everything that Thanos ordered, Ebony Maw strived to do it perfectly. And this time was no exception.
After the Ebony Maw disappeared, Thanos showed a smile.
Although his big mouth was a bit scary, Thanos was indeed in a good mood now.
With his destiny added, Thanos believed that he could finally accomplish his goal and become the one who saved the entire universe.
Hela was not clear about the storm that was about to come.
She was taking over the rights of Asgard while preparing for Odin's funeral.
After all, Odin was the god-king of the previous generation, and there must be enough preparation for the funeral.
Although Odin was killed by her, Asgard itself had this rebellious gene.
Didn't Odin come here like this?
And with Frigga supporting her, who would dare to say anything? Of course, private criticism was definitely indispensable. After all, the reputation of a father's killing was indeed not good.
There was no other way. She had to kill Odin. Just because of Odin's previous deeds, there was no reason to let Odin go.
As for those criticisms, let them go.
After thousands of years, who would remember this incident?
Time was the perfect way to bury the truth.
In addition, Hela had also been constantly promoting the achievements she had made for Asgard during this period.
It was undeniable that Hela really contributed greatly to Asgard.
Asgard could have the current prosperity, it was absolutely indispensable from the contribution of Hela. It's just that Odin had erased the achievements of Hela in the past. Hela naturally wanted the Asgardians to remember her work again, which was also a means to buy people's hearts.
In fact, most of the people of Asgard didn't care who their god-king was.
As long as their god-king was surnamed Odin and was strong enough, it would be fine.
For this reason, Asgard had not many voices dissatisfied with her now.
But at this moment, Hela got bad news.
Njörd, the king of Vanaheim, unexpectedly summoned some secluded gods, intending to overthrow her "tyranny".
To put it simply, those guys looked at the fact that Odin was dead and planned to make trouble.
If possible, Hela did not want to initiate a war. After all, it was time for the transfer of power.
However, if someone took the initiative to send it to the door, that was another matter.
If she could perform well in the face of those enemies, she was likely to win a lot of people's hearts.
Nothing could consolidate the king's authority better than winning a war.
When she thought of this, a sneer appeared at the corner of Hela's mouth.
Those who wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make trouble, as long as they dared to come, they shouldn't even want to run.
Soon it was the day when Odin was about to be buried.
Under the rituals of Frigga, Odin's body was placed in a flower boat, intending to float along the river and into the sea.
This was the tradition of Asgard, and the same was done for Frigga in Thor 2 when she died.
However, just when Odin's body was going down the river, a group of uninvited guests suddenly appeared.
Njörd took the lead. He had brought a large army of Vanir, and the helpers he had found and went directly to the land of Asgard.
And he was not polite at all. He directly released his coercion, which showed that he was obviously malicious as the person who came to attend a funeral.
"Where is Hela, whoever kills the father and seizes the throne, should be punished!"
Njörd was the first to speak, and his loud voice spread throughout Asgard.
His words also immediately aroused the resentment of the people of Asgard.
Who was this person? He was so arrogant as soon as he came, directly asking the new king of Asgard to be punished.
No matter what Hela had done, it was also an internal matter for the Asgardians. When was it his turn as an outsider to talk about it?
Moreover, these people thought that Njörd was too arrogant.
In the past, the Asgardians were arrogant. When was it the Vanir's turn to be arrogant?
At this moment, Frigga walked out of the crowd and looked at Njörd, who was extremely arrogant.
Frigga naturally knew Njörd, not only because of her status as a queen but also because she herself was from Vanaheim.
Frigga, although she was the queen of Asgard, she was born in Vanaheim as a member of the Vanir.
