"Great, guys, you're all okay."
Thor shouted excitedly to everyone, but Hanlu rolled her eyes and patted the shoulder she was standing on. Yes, it was Nexus. His huge humanoid body began to change in an instant, gradually turning into a perfect sphere.
A burst of pure light instantly enveloped Thor, who was about to approach and wave hello, and also took in Valkyrie, who was carrying Loki in the distance.
In the blink of an eye, the light disappeared into the dim space.
At least, when the Godslayer Ger emerged completely from the blasted ruins, the place was silent and desolate, leaving only the aftermath of the great battle.
Upon arriving, Ger looked at the hole created by the sphere as it passed through the sky, and at the incredibly conspicuous eerie light in the dark starry sky.
"I have seen you all! No god can escape its fate!! It has awakened!!"
As a dark ripple flashed across the Black Death Sword in his hand, his body gradually disappeared into the palace of the gods.
Inside the sphere, which was traveling at faster-than-light speed, the shrunken Nexus was doing its best to maintain the integrity of the jump container while frantically leading everyone forward, not even caring about the direction.
Run, run as fast as you can.
Even Hanlu infused the power of her "rabbit" and "horse" talismans into the "light" at this moment, driving the mobile fortress to fly even faster!
Thor, however, held the hammer and axe with a puzzled expression, his arms outstretched, looking utterly bewildered.
"Why not take him out? We can win."
Hanlu was stunned when she heard this "suffocating" statement.
Dude, how did you assess the combat strength comparison?
Didn't you see that the three of us were getting completely overwhelmed by the other side when we went together?
The combined attack of himself and Nexus was caught by the opponent with a single hand.
Even those tentacles had been dragged into that strange black ocean. If the Valkyrie behind him hadn't bravely picked up Zeus's "Thunderbolt" and smashed it down to interfere with him, he would have had to spend more time getting away.
Even Hanlu herself only managed to escape thanks to the ethereal mechanism of the Serpent Talisman, which allowed her to pull Nexus out as well; otherwise, it would have been just the few of them—
He touched the "chess piece" in his pocket. Actually, it didn't seem like he couldn't win, but there was no need to; this was his backup plan.
To be honest, it wasn't until now that the gap between them had widened completely that he had time to calm down and reflect. In fact, he wasn't without other means, after all, he had already left an army for himself in the City of Omnipotence.
If necessary, a gang-up tactic can still be employed!
The main problem was that the skirmish was so intense that it completely bewildered me.
However, he has now thought of another better way, since it is always good to keep some backup plans.
"If you're going to fight, fight the way we do it."
Hanlu simply threw out that alarm clock with the childlike pattern.
Thor hurriedly threw aside his weapons and frantically tried to catch the alarm clock, but he couldn't get a firm grip on it several times.
Let's take a closer look.
What is this thing?
"I'm giving you a promotion. From now on, you're a key player, so you can play however you want."
With a flick of her finger, Hanlu caused the alarm clock that was suspended in Thor's hand to slowly rise into the air, and its dial began to spin wildly clockwise at a speed completely different from that of a regular alarm clock.
As the designated target, Thor suddenly felt himself becoming very strange.
He could clearly feel some kind of change happening in his body, but since it was done by Hanlu, he did not resist it. Instead, he obediently felt the divine power in his body, which was like a lake, evolving into an unfathomable ocean!
"I feel—I feel incredibly powerful!"
As his divine power surged, Thor himself began to uncontrollably emit powerful arcs of electricity.
It was only thanks to his efforts to suppress it that everyone in the cabin could have been electrocuted.
However, as his power gradually increased, he felt something was wrong.
I always feel like my hands are wrinkled, and so is the beard on my chin —
What the hell? Where's my hair? Where's my beautiful golden hair?
"Am I getting old??"
Yes, that's right.
Hanlu was incredibly grateful that she had managed to dig something out of "Eternity" beforehand; otherwise, haha—
Some might ask, why didn't Hanlu do this to the Godslayer, Ge'er?
After all, all he needs to do is reverse Gale back to his mortal state before he obtained the Black Death Sword, and then finish him off with one move, right?
But the problem is, time doesn't work that way. At least not for this guy who has built himself up to the peak of the Godfather level by slaughtering gods, or even possibly half a step into the single-element level.
Unless with the user's consent or when connected to the most fundamental rules of the universe, this kind of time power, which branches out independently and is controlled by Hanlu alone, can only be used on "willing" targets or those who are far weaker than herself.
This rule does not apply when facing an entity of equal or even greater power.
Fortunately, they have a "silly guy" on their side whose power increases over time, and he's also their teammate.
Hanlu didn't know how much Thor's strength could increase, but after that previous battle—which couldn't really be called a free-for-all, but rather a complete rout—
He felt it was necessary to make good use of this remaining top-tier fighting force.
While Hanlu was thinking about this and that, she urged Daixus to gradually recover to its peak state to replenish its energy, and continued to help Thor to carry out a deeper "enhancement".
Meanwhile, Loki, lying on the ground with half his body turned to stone, rolled his eyes in exasperation. He felt ignored again.
The Valkyrie standing beside her, embracing her Dragon Fang Sword, gradually regained her power. Who could argue with that?
On Earth.
The polar bear family stared blankly at the golden and silver lights in the sky, which were moving and colliding at an astonishing speed.
After an occasional clash, the two collided again at an even faster speed.
But anyone with eyes could see that, in each collision, the silver light was gradually being suppressed by the golden radiance.
With another earth-shattering roar, it was fortunate that the two objects were probably tens of kilometers away from the ground, otherwise the shockwave alone would have been enough to cause hearing loss.
Even so, they could still clearly see that the sea surface below the impact point was swept up by the blast wave, creating a small tsunami that even spread all the way to their vicinity before gradually subsiding.

"Okay, I said it before, this kid is just too overpowered. No wonder Hanlu values him so much."

Alexei scratched the back of his head, looking somewhat uncomfortable.
Honestly, when he first saw his girlfriend with such a (former) drug addict, he was 100% against it.
No matter what his daughter is like, or whether the other party is a secret agent or something, Yelena will always be his cutest little polar bear!
It could be said that the relationship between the two was almost entirely Yelena's "willful insistence," and it even had her mother's approval.
But when Bob began to gradually reveal his true power, then everything started to change.
For example, right now.
Icarus looked at his mechanical arm, damaged by the violent collision, and he could see the exposed mechanical components and empty shell inside.
Fortunately, as the healing power of the horse talisman flowed, his body was gradually returning to normal.
He was silent.
This silence made Bob, who was standing in front of him, scratch his head somewhat embarrassedly.
At this moment, this guy changed into a completely different outfit—perhaps because the power of the 12 talismans manifested as gold in reality, he gradually came to like using gold as the main color.
At least, his yellow battle suit, silver cape, and golden hair did give him a rather "dazzling" look.
But coupled with his somewhat timid expression, it seemed a bit...
"You didn't use your full strength."
Icarus looked up at the man in front of him who still seemed somewhat insecure.
He carried a certain anger, but it wasn't because the other person had surpassed him.
During this time, as the other party's "teacher" and "old rival," he was very clear about how powerful and terrifying Bob was, perhaps even comparable to his creator.
What truly angered him was that the other party didn't take this power for granted at all, but instead used it with fear, as if it were a delicate glass vessel that could shatter at any moment.
Bob didn't know what to say; he just kept his head down, like a student being scolded.
But this only infuriated Icarus even more.
However, as a golden portal opened between the two...
