Chapter 221: Chapter 221
Chapter 221: Chapter 221
Previously, Thor was at the top of the list, with Loki coming later. But now, the White-Clad Hero was ranked even ahead of Loki. Compared to the disliked frost giant Loki, Thor found himself liking this person more-someone who likely possessed the royal bloodline of the Allfather.
...
On Earth.
After carefully scanning to ensure there were no stragglers and that all the Dark Elves had been cleared, Syd relaxed slightly.
With Malekith and the other Dark Elves dead, the trouble brought by the Reality Stone had also temporarily vanished.
"After this, besides Thanos, there shouldn't be too many others causing me problems..." At least, not in the short term...
Syd breathed a sigh of relief. Before long, he could focus on improving his strength again. Thinking this, the next second, his figure twisted, and his body, floating in mid-air, began to turn transparent, about to enter a stealth state.
This scene left Tony Stark and the others gaping. Stealth?
Just how many abilities did the White-Clad Hero possess?
As Syd's figure completely disappeared in the air, Thor, standing among the crowd, finally reacted, shouting urgently, "Wait! Don't leave yet. I have something to talk to you about."
Syd, who was just about to leave quietly in stealth mode, paused slightly upon hearing Thor's words.
In an instant, he knew what Thor wanted to say.
"He probably wants to persuade me to go to Asgard, right?"
For a moment, Syd hesitated.
He naturally wanted to go to Asgard, given the many treasures there. One of the things he desired most was the Infinity Gauntlet.
However, he was somewhat wary of Odin.
If Odin decided to attack him, Syd wasn't sure if he could withstand it.
Despite Odin seemingly growing old and nearing death, Syd knew that it was just an appearance.
The real reason was Odin's body could no longer contain his ever-expanding divine power, coupled with the plot-driven death in the future...
The Asgardian gods only grew stronger with age. When Odin and the Ancient One were still alive, even Thanos likely hesitated to invade Earth because of that...
And in the movies, Odin had never gone all out either...
Syd believed that if Odin truly fought with all his strength, the results would be beyond anyone's expectations.
Even now, he was uncertain whether he could face the Allfather Odin.
After all, Odin's upper limit of power was a mystery, and the unknown was the most terrifying.
In fact, he felt more confident in facing the Ancient One than Odin-at least the Ancient One had shown some of her capabilities, and Syd had a good understanding of her magic.
Even if it ended in disaster, it wouldn't be as unpredictable as facing Odin...
To go to Asgard would mean taking the risk of facing Odin. Though the probability was small...
Syd hesitated.
After a while, he thought, "Forget it, I'll wait a bit longer. Once my Divine Light, Divine Word, and Divine Body are upgraded to level five, I'll go to Asgard..."
By then, he would feel confident enough.
Of course, even now, he wasn't without a chance against Odin or the Ancient One-it was just that he didn't have absolute confidence.
After all, both of them hid their true strength extremely well, never revealing it fully...
Still, it was possible to make an estimate.
The goddess of death, Hela, was defeated by the fire giant Surtur, and Surtur could destroy all of Asgard with one strike...
And yet, even someone like Surtur had been defeated by Odin. It was simply outrageous... Honestly, Syd couldn't fathom how much strength Odin was hiding, just like he couldn't understand why the Ancient One, who clearly had powerful magic, never used it.
Two cunning old foes...
Having decided to find Thor later, Syd's figure moved and flew away from the scene.
In the distance.
Seeing that no one appeared in the sky for a long time, Thor's face filled with expectation turned into disappointment as he murmured, "Why did it end like this..."
Originally, he thought his brother would show up, and he could bring him back to Asgard joyfully. But now, things were completely different from what he imagined-his brother completely ignored him...
"Did I offend him in some way?" Thor muttered in doubt.
After asking around and learning the reason, Hawkeye consoled, "Maybe the White-Clad Hero has his own matters and reasons. Next time, he might go with you to Asgard."
"Barton is right..."
Despite everyone's comforting words, Thor mumbled, "But this way, I'm stuck on Earth again!"
Black Widow and the others were confused.
Only after a while did they realize that since Asgard's Bifrost had been destroyed, Thor must have used some special method to get here-and that special method clearly couldn't be used frequently and had some limitations.
While they were talking, the news of what happened in New York began to spread online.
Fury couldn't hide it even if he wanted to; the incident had too much of an impact.
When netizens learned that New York had been invaded once again, discussions exploded.
"Are the Chitauri not wiped out yet?"
"Who are these guys now?"
"Does anyone know what's going on exactly?"
Because the incident took place in New York and there were relatively few casualties this time,
many people recorded videos from afar.
When these videos were uploaded online, netizens collectively gasped.
Naturally, they weren't frightened by the aliens-those guys weren't much different from the Chitauri army. They were terrified of the White-Clad Hero's power.
Watching the scenes of the White-Clad Hero repeatedly warping reality, many people felt
their hearts shiver with fear.
They also saw the scene of him using sunlight to obliterate those aliens.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Seeing the White-Clad Hero, who appeared like a sun god, left netizens stunned.
Those in the know even leaked some information, revealing that the White-Clad Hero was
actually the God of Light.
"The White-Clad Hero is also the God of Light?"
"We only knew he might be a god before, but he's the God of Light?"
Netizens who weren't aware were left dumbfounded.
This also made some people with ulterior motives even more wary.
Watching the White-Clad Hero demonstrate more abilities, Doctor Bolivar and Director
Alessandro had grim expressions despite their shock.
The White-Clad Hero's strength had increased even further?! While they were discussing countermeasures and rumors were flying everywhere, Magneto and Professor X also heard
about the event.
They even heard rumors that the recent light phenomenon that had enveloped the entire Earth was related to the White-Clad Hero.
Hearing this, Magneto and Professor Xavier were both stunned.
