At the critical moment, Hades's bident transformed into a bird-headed Scepter.
He raised this Scepter to the sky, absorbing the power of the lightning into it, while he himself remained unharmed.
"As expected, he's not an easy opponent."
Because Zeus is the creator of humanity, the Olympian Gods in the DC Universe have all undergone an epic-level enhancement in their status, and each of them is not so easy to deal with.
Odin was not surprised either. He reached out and grabbed, and gungnir flew back into his hand.
gungnir is a spear that always hits, but hitting doesn't necessarily mean death. As long as one can withstand the divine spear and not die, they will find that gungnir's ability is actually just so-so.
Hades's armor was also forged from eighth metal, crafted by the famous honest Hephaestus, and its quality was excellent, no less than the set worn by Ares, God of War.
Just as Hades was preparing to continue attacking Loki and the other Gods, a tall figure suddenly appeared behind him.
The figure stooped slightly and drew a snow-white blade artifact from his waist—the Kusanagi.
A warning sign rose in Hades's heart. The bird-headed Scepter once again transformed into a bident and swung backward, colliding with the artifact behind him, erupting in a violent impact.
The impact spread out, overturning the Army along the way, plowing the earth, and redrawing the map of Hell.
Hades fixed his gaze, and couldn't help but sneer, "A little God from the Far East 04." He couldn't quite remember this God's name.
The pantheon of Japan is not very strong, but the loyalty of its followers is very strong, which allows them to maintain some relatively powerful forces.
"I am Susanoo. I have long heard of your great name, and it is indeed well-deserved."
Susanoo, also known as Susanoo-no-Mikoto, one of the three noble children in Japanese mythology.
The man revealed his form; he was a burly man with thick hair and beard, dressed in ancient battle robes and exquisite armor.
However, this set of armor was more symbolic than practical. It was not made of eighth metal, but rather a creation made of some relatively precious magic materials.
In the God Realm, most famous artifacts are made of eighth metal. This is because eighth metal has extremely strong divine power conductivity, and can fix magic on it to produce some special functions.
Moreover, once forged, they no longer require the user to continuously supply divine power or magic power; they themselves have the ability to convert energy.
This metal has some characteristics similar to eternal metal, but it is much harder than eternal metal.
All of Wonder Woman's artifacts are forged from eighth metal, so those artifacts can also affect Gods.
The Kusanagi in Susanoo's hand also contained some components of eighth metal, thus being able to block Hades's bident.
The other Gods of Asgard were also like this; they were all Gods who had lived for tens of thousands of years, so who didn't have one or two eighth metal weapons in their hands!
Once a fight broke out, as long as no major mistakes occurred, fighting for days and nights was a normal thing.
Therefore, if he wanted a quick victory, Hades had to have some more prominent advantages, and as luck would have it, he really did.
Seeing the three Gods of Asgard, along with the God of the Far East, surrounding him, Hades's face showed a sinister smile.
A magical light glowed in his hand, and a golden helmet appeared. That was the helmet of fate.
Few people knew that the helmet of fate was actually made of N-metal, and its purity was very high.
And N-metal had another little-known name, called ninth metal.
It is a special metal whose properties are even above eighth metal.
It can change its form at will according to the user's will, and unlike eighth metal, which requires custom enchantment to have specific magic abilities.
Ninth metal itself is a kind of magic ability. The type of magic ability seems to be related to its purity. N-metal of different purities will exhibit different abilities.
And ninth metal also has a special ability: by striking it against eighth metal at a specific frequency, it can awaken people from oblivion.
After obtaining this helmet, Hades had people continuously pour the Water of the River Lethe from the Underworld onto the helmet.
The Water of the River Lethe can make souls forget their past and present lives, similar to the effect of Meng Po's soup.
After a long period of irrigation, the consciousness of Nabu in the helmet gradually weakened, and finally, his consciousness was almost negligible.
If Dane hadn't come too quickly and urgently, Hades would have waited until Nabu's consciousness in the helmet had completely dissipated before using it.
But now it was almost enough; Nabu could no longer make a big splash.
Under Hades's will, the helmet disintegrated, turning into a viscous metallic liquid.
He covered his bident with this N-metal, turning it into a weapon shining with a golden luster.
Odin saw Hades's actions and instinctively felt a hint of unease.
But he hadn't yet thought of ninth metal, because in his knowledge, ninth metal was not golden, but black.
Ninth metal is also known as Dark Metal, and this involves a secret.
Odin was misled by his own knowledge; N-metal, after processing, would appear golden. He forgot this point, and this was a fatal oversight.
So when he clashed gungnir with Hades's bident, the breaking of gungnir caused him unprecedented shock.
And he immediately reacted.
"Ninth metal!"
Hades laughed loudly, and with a backhand, struck Odin again with his Scepter, sending him flying.
The power of the Lord of Order on the N-metal shell inflicted enormous damage on Odin, and he even spat out a mouthful of divine blood.
And just as he was injured and retreating, a ghostly Shadow also appeared behind him. That Shadow held a dagger and plunged it fiercely into Odin's lower back, piercing his divine body.
"Father!"
Thor was enraged. His body flashed with lightning as he swung his hammer at the attacker. The falling lightning from the sky seemed to feel his wrath, emitting a thick bolt of lightning to echo his attack.
However, the attacker quickly retreated, and before leaving, reached out and pulled Odin's body in front of him.
Thor saw his hammer about to strike Odin and quickly diverted its force, letting the power of the lightning pour out to the side.
At this moment, a mighty giant rushed over from the other side, striking Thor with a short sword and sending him flying.
Loki watched from above, clearly seeing everything on the ground, and he couldn't help but frown.
"It's those Egyptian Gods..."
The one who ambushed Odin was Osiris, the God of the Underworld from the Egyptian Gods, and the one who ambushed Thor was Set, the God of Desert and War. These were two brothers working together to scheme against Gods!
Loki hadn't expected that two brothers so at odds could actually cooperate so sincerely!
"If even you can cooperate with Odin and Thor, why can't they?"
Hades himself could cooperate with someone like Ares, who had an affair with his wife, let alone other Gods?
Everyone's moral standards were pretty much the same.
"So you already teamed up with them."
Hades said smugly, "That's right, I already received news that the God of the Far East and you guys teamed up. If you can, of course I can too."
"But what price did you pay for it?" Loki pondered.
Hades merely smiled faintly, "Hell is so big, there's always enough to share."
Loki heard some information from his words and couldn't help but be tempted.
If Hades was willing to share the rule of Hell with them, then they actually wouldn't have to fight at all!
Little did they know, Hades was sneering inwardly. He had done so many things, was it so that these Gods could come and reap the benefits when it was time for harvest?
How could that be!
So, seeing Loki fall into thought, the golden bident in his hand had already been quietly raised.
But before he could act, a new situation 533 occurred.
A fierce gust of wind rapidly swept through the battlefield where the two sides were fighting. The strong wind continued to rage through the battlefield, stirring up a tornado that connected heaven and earth. Wind and rain simultaneously covered the earth, destroying Hades's and Odin's Armies.
Hades felt the presence of two ancient great Gods he hadn't seen in a long time from this divine power, and so he roared:
"Enlil! How dare you!"
Enlil, the Sumerian God of Earth and Air, was the God who destroyed the world with a flood in Sumerian legends.
With him also came his nephew Marduk, the chief God of Mesopotamia.
After the Hammurabi era, he replaced Enlil as the new chief God.
He was in charge of wind and rain, thunderstorms, war, and magic. He was a very tricky God.
However, the beliefs of these two had long since crumbled. Now, relying only on the power of their divine realm, they could not contend with a God like Hades.
But Hades could still see Gods from other pantheons, such as Ahriman of Zoroastrianism, Nuada "Silver Hand" of the Tuatha Dé Danann, and so on. They also came to take advantage.
Hades laughed in extreme anger. Was this to say that the N-metal in my hand wasn't bloody enough, so they specifically came to offer themselves as cannon fodder?
However, when this group of Gods was fighting chaotically here, the final mantis stalker appeared.
Dane's eyes lit up with a burning light as he saw the Gods in the middle of the battlefield.
"Aini, Berial, you lead the demon Army to attack those minions!"
"Diana, Clark, Hal, you play it by ear.
Everyone on the other side is an enemy. Don't be afraid to kill them. Demons are not worth pitying, and Gods are immortal."
"As for Barry... you try to survive."
After speaking, Dane ignored Barry's resentful expression and flew alone towards the battlefield of the Gods.
He pulled with both hands, and a half-man battle-axe appeared in his hands. The power of the God of War within him erupted, and he charged into the enemy camp!
