Without a moment of hesitation.
Hela's figure flashed repeatedly, and in the blink of an eye, she appeared near those black blood droplets.
The moment her fingers touched the black blood, Hela's eyes widened sharply.
A vast and pure power surged into her body through her fingers.
That feeling... it was like a traveler who had been walking in the desert for a thousand years finally drinking their first sip of water.
Hela couldn't help but take a deep breath, an expression of near intoxication appearing on her face.
Just as Peter had said, this source power originating from Mephisto was an absolute tonic for her, as she was also a ruler of the underworld.
She could clearly feel that after absorbing this power, her own strength was climbing crazily; it wasn't a slow growth, but rather a direct leap to a higher level.
Furthermore, she could feel that the sense of rejection from this Universe had also clearly disappeared!
Clearly, this source power directly connected to this pocket dimension! It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it the law power of this Universe.
As long as she absorbed enough, she would even have the right to directly compete with Mephisto for the ownership of this pocket Universe later on!
"Very good~"
Hela licked her lips and began to more actively absorb the black blood that was constantly splashing down from above.
Above, Mephisto was still letting out miserable howls.
There was clearly a hint of fear in those howls!
He could feel his power draining away rapidly.
Those black blood droplets, that source power belonging to him, if they hadn't been snatched away by Hela, he would have been able to recover them without loss once he reabsorbed them into his body.
But now, Hela, that damn bitch, was devouring this source power into her own body.
It was just like playing Snake.
Once this power entered Hela's stomach, unless he could kill and devour Hela, he would lose this portion of power forever.
This kind of thing was undoubtedly unacceptable!
"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"
Mephisto couldn't help but let out vicious curses:
"You despicable thieves, you damn scumbags, I want you both to die!"
As he spoke, he endured the pain in his body, stretched out a large hand, and swiped towards Hela.
Facing Mephisto's attack, Peter just let out a cold snort.
Immediately, he slashed horizontally with the all-black the necrosword in his hand, carrying Haoshoku coating and a trace of Phoenix Force energy, directly severing the hand Mephisto had reached out towards Hela at the wrist.
Another scream followed.
The severed hand fell to the ground, turning into even more black blood, which Hela unceremoniously accepted in full.
Good grief!
Watching Mephisto, the enemy who killed his father, trembling with rage yet helpless at this moment, Thor even felt a faint sense of relief.
This was just too miserable! So miserable that even he, the enemy, couldn't bear to watch anymore.
...
This near-endless "slow slicing" didn't know how long it had lasted.
Finally, Mephisto reacted.
After enduring who knows how many slashes, he finally built up a tiny bit of tolerance to the damage caused by the all-black the necrosword and Haoshoku coating.
The moment he recovered from that excruciating pain of being "hard-controlled," Mephisto did not hesitate at all and immediately mobilized the power of the entire Universe to act upon Peter.
Crack!
Boom!
The moment he made his move.
A spatial turbulence suddenly acted upon Peter.
Following that, the gravity of the entire Universe underwent a drastic change.
The originally normal gravity surged by a full one hundred thousand times in an instant.
This trick had been used on Hela before, and the effect was outstanding.
And now that he was using all his energy to deal with Peter, the gravity multiplier was more than ten times stronger than before.
Under this level of crushing pressure, even Vibranium would be instantly crushed into a thin sheet of paper.
Peter's physical body naturally couldn't defy such laws.
His body erupted with the sound of bones shattering; although his current physical strength was enough to prevent him from being crushed into a meat patty, he couldn't avoid blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, and his movements became sluggish.
Seeing this, a flash of light appeared in Mephisto's eyes, thinking that his plan had succeeded.
Just as he thought he could finally launch a counterattack
The hazy white light he had seen before acted upon Peter.
Under the effect of this white light, Peter's body instantly recovered.
Still the savior Horse Talisman, still overpowered in this regard!
So what if it was one hundred thousand times gravity? The Horse Talisman directly eliminated the damage caused to Peter by gravity.
And the immortal dog talisman permanently locked Peter's body in its peak state, even though the physical exertion when attacking under one hundred thousand times gravity increased by a full one hundred thousand times.
But it still wouldn't let Peter's stamina be overdrawn.
It's just that locked health and locked mana, bro!
Seeing that Peter's attack only paused for less than 0.1 seconds before continuing, and even the frequency of the attacks didn't slow down by a single bit.
Mephisto just had a "black guy question mark" expression.
Not cool, bro, how am I supposed to play this!
Where is the Watcher? Where is the Living Tribunal?
Save me!
This guy is cheating!
Peter: If it's not turned off, does that mean it's on?
Seeing the counterattack he had finally found an opportunity to launch being easily neutralized by Peter, while Hela on the side was still frantically absorbing her authority like a mouse that had fallen into a rice jar.
Mephisto just went: I am exhausted, I am silent, I have surrendered, I am in despair, I am broken, I am helpless, I am crying, I am praying to Buddha, I have fallen, I have hanged myself, I have jumped in front of a train, I have retired to the countryside, I am in a sage mode, I am unable to parry, I am begging heaven and earth and my parents, I have chosen the thirty-six strategies and running away is the best, I am playing dumb and knowing nothing!
During this time while Mephisto was doubting his life.
Hela also finished devouring all the fallen black blood.
As she absorbed more and more source power, the aura on Hela's body was climbing visibly to the naked eye.
It had even faintly surpassed her peak state when she was in Asgard, and she could feel that she was undergoing some kind of transformation.
Evolving from the Goddess of Death of Asgard towards a higher-level underworld existence.
But just during this process, she suddenly let out a muffled grunt.
She could sense that some evil consciousness seemed to be awakening within her body!
That was... Mephisto!
Or rather, it was Hela's negative emotional avatar created under the influence of Mephisto's source power!
If she couldn't get rid of this guy, then in the end, it was very likely that even Hela herself would be assimilated by it, thereby becoming another new Mephisto!
Just as Hela realized this and was at a loss, Peter had already noticed the change in her state at the first moment.
Without any hesitation, he immediately activated the power of the Tiger Talisman, splitting himself into good and evil sides.
Evil Peter maintained the output, still hard-controlling Mephisto.
And Good Peter instantly appeared beside Hela, pointing his finger at Hela's forehead; with this action, the power of the Horse Talisman was instantly activated.
Peter directly helped Hela eliminate the adverse effects caused by devouring too much of Mephisto's source power.
"Thanks, you've been a huge help!"
Hela felt that the evil consciousness about to be born had been instantly erased, and she regained control of her body.
Hela was first surprised that Peter actually had such hidden methods, then immediately looked at Mephisto with a greedy expression again.
Now, relying solely on Peter's "passive supply" was already somewhat insufficient; next, it was time for her to "actively harvest"!
