Chapter 233 Richard VS Hela
"Then why do you want me to go to the underworld? You won't let me go to the underworld to make friends with Hela, right?"
Richard asked directly without wasting his brain cells on guessing what Odin was thinking.
As soon as he finished speaking, Odin said with emotion: "I hope you go to the underworld to defeat her and make her realize that even if she returns to Asgard, she cannot be your opponent."
On the surface, Odin's request is not difficult.
But things are not that simple.
Not to mention that Hela is not a person who will give up easily.
Even if he could defeat Hela in the underworld, Hela would not be convinced.
Because only by returning to Asgard can Hela exert her full strength.
After more than ten seconds of silence, Richard continued: "Do you want to let her out?"
"I do think so."
"If she hadn't had the idea to conquer the entire nine realms, I wouldn't have imprisoned her in the underworld with my own hands."
"No matter what, she is my daughter."
Odin said slowly.
I don't know if it was his imagination, but after Odin said this, Richard felt that Odin seemed to have become older.
Is there not much time left?
This idea immediately came to Richard's mind.
Because this is not a movie universe, he can't deduce when Odin will die based on the time of the movie universe.
After thinking for a while, he said slowly: "I can go to the underworld, but I can't guarantee that Hela will admit defeat after being defeated by me."
"She has been imprisoned by you for more than two thousand years, and the resentment in her heart may be even greater than before."
Although Hela is the goddess of death, she is also a woman.
In addition, Hela had the idea of conquering the Nine Realms back then, mainly because of Odin's teachings.
In other words, if it weren't for Odin's words and deeds, Hela might not have the idea of conquering the Nine Realms.
"It doesn't matter if you fail, just try your best."
Odin said slowly.
As Hela's father, he understands Hela's character better than anyone else.
Even if Richard couldn't convince Hela, as long as Richard could defeat Hela, it would be enough for him.
Because this means that after his death, even if Richard does not want to keep his promise to stop Hela, Hela will take the initiative to find him.
When the time comes, Richard will have no choice but to take action, whether he likes it or not.
To put it simply, even if Richard cannot convince Hela this time, Hela can still make Hela hate him.
"When do you want me to go to the underworld?"
Richard asked directly without saying anything else.
"The sooner the better."
"If you have nothing else to do, I can send you to the underworld now."
Odin replied quickly.
"Then now."
Richard said casually.
For him, there is no essential difference whether he goes now or later.
"Okay, now."
After saying that, Odin stood up and used the power of Odin, the heavenly father level.
With the flash of golden light, Odin's white robe turned into golden armor.
At the same time, the Eternal Spear also appeared in his hand.
Although his appearance has not changed much, after putting on the golden armor and holding the Eternal Spear, Odin's impression immediately changed from a kind old man to a lofty and invincible king.
After seeing Odin summoning armor and the eternal spear, the first thought that came to Richard's mind was not that Odin looked more domineering now, but whether he should also get a set of domineering and handsome armor. .
Although he doesn't have the power of Odin, he has the magic power to do the same thing.
After thinking for a while, he gave up the idea of using magic power to make armor.
Sephiroth's black trench coat is handsome enough.
Adding armor would be superfluous.
After summoning the armor and the Eternal Spear, Odin came to the middle of the study.
Then, under Richard's gaze, the tip of the Eternal Spear shone with golden light.
I saw Odin raising the Eternal Spear and making two random strokes in the air.
As the Eternal Spear passed by, a torn space crack immediately appeared in the middle of the study.
The direction of the crack is exactly the same as the trajectory traced by the tip of the eternal spear.
In other words, Odin used the Spear of Eternity to cut through space and create a space passage to the underworld.
Is this the background of the veteran Heavenly Father-level powerhouse?
Richard sighed in his heart.
Although he also has very good strength, he is not weaker than Odin.
But compared to Odin, who has lived for millions of years, his background is still less.
When the space crack appeared, Richard immediately mobilized the magic power in his body without any hesitation.
With the flash of blue light, his clothes immediately changed into the same black trench coat as Sephiroth's.
He did not immediately take out the authentic Yama Sword from the system space, but turned to Odin and asked: "Is the flow of time in the underworld the same as Asgard?"
"Yes, as long as the underworld has passed, Asgard has passed."
Odin replied.
After hearing Odin's answer, Richard said nothing more and entered the space rift with a calm expression.
Although he had never been to the underworld before, the space passage Odin created was similar to the Rainbow Bridge.
As soon as he entered the space rift, a pulling force enveloped him, leading him to fly toward the exit on the other side of the passage.
In just ten seconds, he arrived at the exit on the other side of the space passage and officially arrived in the underworld.
After sending him to the underworld, Odin immediately closed the space channel without any hesitation.
Richard didn't care about the closing of the space channel and scanned his surroundings.
This underworld looks very ordinary!
Richard looked at the surrounding scene and immediately made an evaluation.
Although the underworld is one of the nine realms, at this time, he felt that he was not in the underworld, but a desolate alien planet.
Gray sky and earth.
There were no signs of life as far as the eye could see.
The temperature here is not too low, but it has an unmistakable feeling of coldness and death.
Just when Richard was lamenting that the underworld in front of him was quite different from what he imagined, a figure suddenly appeared in the distance.
Although the distance is a bit far, for Richard, who has super vision, this is not a problem at all.
Without any effort, he could clearly see the other person's appearance and clothing.
She has sharp black hair and a close-fitting black leather jacket with many holes, revealing her pure white skin.
The face has sharp edges and corners, the bridge of the nose is high, and there are obvious "dark circles" around the eyes.
The tall figure and the sharply contoured face give people a sense of calmness and authority.
The person who appeared in Richard's sight was none other than Hela, who had been imprisoned by Odin for more than two thousand years.
Whether it's her clothes or her appearance, Hela is similar to what Richard remembers.
If there is any difference, it is that Hela now exudes unabashed murderous intent.
Obviously, she had confirmed that the space channel just now was opened by Odin.
Although she didn't know who Richard was, it didn't matter to her.
No matter who Richard is, as long as he is sent to the underworld by Odin, she will not let him go easily.
Apart from anything else, he should at least vent his anger on Richard who had been imprisoned for more than two thousand years.
It didn't take long for Hela to come to Richard.
After taking a look at Richard, she said in a matter-of-fact, condescending tone like a queen: "Kneel down!"
Indeed it is!
Richard clearly remembers that in the movie universe, the first thing Hela said when she saw Loki and Thor was to kneel down.
He didn't answer Hela and took out the authentic Yan Demon Sword from the system space.
After seeing him summon the authentic Yama Sword out of thin air, Hela mobilized her divine power of death, turned her wrist, and a unique black long sword appeared in her hand.
"Kneel down!"
"In front of your queen!"
Hela said again.
"First of all, you are not qualified to make me kneel down."
"Secondly, I am not an Asgardian, and you are not my queen."
"Finally, I'm here to beat you up."
Richard looked at Hela with a calm expression.
Although Hela now exudes strong murderous intent and aura, his expression is still extremely calm.
Judging from the aura and vitality exuded by Hela, Hela's strength was similar to what he expected, and it was not at the Heavenly Father level.
Not only now, even if Hela returns to Asgard, he doesn't think Hela's strength will be improved to the same level as Odin.
In other words, he can now be sure that Hela is definitely not his opponent.
After hearing his words, Hela said nothing more, immediately raised her right hand and threw out the black sword in her hand.
Although the long sword was not a throwing weapon, the black long sword thrown out by Hela exploded at an astonishing flying speed.
In just a blink of an eye, the black sword came to Richard.
However, just when the black sword was about to hit Richard, a silver light flashed.
clang!
With a casual wave of his hand, Richard used the authentic Yan Demon Sword to cut off the black sword thrown by Hela.
"Isn't it a bit too contemptuous for an attack of this level to hit me?"
Richard said to Hela.
Hela did not answer him, but raised her hands and lightly touched her head.
The next second, a black helmet with five pairs of sharp horns of different lengths appeared on her head.
With the appearance of the helmet, Richard could clearly feel that Hela's aura had become stronger.
Under his gaze, Hela summoned two black swords at the same time and walked towards him unhurriedly.
After seeing this scene, Richard, who was holding the authentic Yan Mo Sword, also walked towards Hela.
When the distance between them shortened to less than two meters, they waved their weapons at the same time.
Dang, Dang, Dang, Dang, Dang...
The authentic Yan Mo Dao and the black long sword collided continuously, making a clear sound of metal collision.
No matter in terms of sharpness or sturdiness, the black sword summoned by Hela is far inferior to the authentic Yama Sword.
But the black long sword also has an advantage that the authentic Yan Mo Dao does not have, that is, there are endless numbers of black long swords.
As long as the power of death in Hela's body is not exhausted, she can have as many black swords as she wants.
Not only is the black sword of normal size now, she can also use the power of death to make a black sword hundreds of meters or even thousands of meters long.
Of course, the larger the black sword is, the more death power it consumes.
Hela generally does not do this unless necessary.
Every time it hit, the genuine Yama Sword would cut off a black long sword.
But Hela didn't take it to heart at all.
She could summon the cut black long sword at any time.
Compared with the consumed black long sword, she was more concerned about Richard's swordsmanship.
Apart from anything else, just looking at Richard's swordsmanship, she knew that Richard's strength was not as weak as she imagined.
In other words, Richard was the best swordsman she had ever seen.
Who is this guy?
Hela's expression began to become serious.
Although she didn't know Richard, she could clearly sense that Richard's life breath was still in a very young stage, only in his twenties.
In Asgard, a person in his twenties was still a real baby.
Compared with the earthlings whose longest lifespan was only more than 100 years old, Asgardians were considered adults only when they were 1,000 years old.
Unlike Hela, whose expression began to become serious, Richard's expression was as calm as ever.
This level of fighting now was not even a warm-up for him.
After cutting off the black sword in Hela's hand again, Richard, who had been using simple moves, finally began to use Sephiroth's moves.
Earth-shaking!
In just a moment, he performed four smooth slashes and attacked Hela with lightning.
After seeing Richard's Earth-shaking, Hela immediately took a defensive posture and crossed the black swords in her hands to block in front of her.
At the same time, she mobilized the death power in her body to strengthen the black sword in her hand.
Ding Ding Ding Ding!
With more death power, the black sword in her hand finally blocked Richard's Earth-shaking.
However, the black sword was still cut into several pieces by the authentic Yama Sword.
Without any hesitation, Hela summoned two black swords again, and her legs suddenly exerted force, and she retreated dozens of meters in an instant.
At this time, she was 100% sure that she would not have any advantage in a face-to-face close combat.
Richard was not inferior to her in strength, speed, reaction and skills.
Seeing Hela retreat, Richard immediately guessed what she was thinking.
It was obvious that Hela wanted to change her tactics and try to start a long-range attack.
Richard did not let Hela get her wish.
As Hela retreated, he immediately used his super speed and came to Hela like a ghost.
Eight swords flash!
Eight lightning-fast slashes immediately attacked Hela.
Facing Richard's Eight Swords Flash, Hela could only block the black sword in front of her again, trying to block the Eight Swords Flash.
However, this time, even with the blessing of the power of death, Hela still failed to block Richard's attack.
On the surface, Eight Swords Flash only has four more swords than Earth Shaking.
But in fact, the power of Eight Swords Flash far exceeds Earth Shaking.
Eight Swords Flash is one of Sephiroth's signature skills, and its power far exceeds that of Earthshaking and Skyshaking.
