Starting as a Class Five Mutant

Chapter 367: Chapter 367



Feeling her empty head, Hela suddenly remembered that her crown was no longer with her.

Nearby, Xu Wenwu watched half of the scene unfold before growing impatient. He ordered, "Capture her."

At his command, more than twenty blak-clad men rushed toward her.

Watching this unfold, Hela was indifferent. "So, we're getting physical now?"

As the group charged at her, she smiled confidently, spreading her arms as if to summon her weapons and slaughter these ignorant Midgardians.

But no weapons appeared.

"What?"

Before she could react, a fist landed squarely on her, sending her flying backward.

She hit the ground hard, feeling the sharp pain on her cheek. Touching her lips, she saw a smear of red. Stunned, she muttered, "Mortal blood?"

After a brief moment of disbelief, Hela looked at the group of approaching black-clad men. Her expression shifted dramatically as she raised her hands in a gesture of surrender, feigning weakness.

"No, please, I beg you. Spare me. I'm just a poor, helpless woman..."

Her pitiful act made the men hesitate, their movements pausing as they exchanged bewildered looks.

Before they could recover, Hela lashed out with a sudden punch, knocking one of them to the ground.

Realizing it was all a facade, the black-clad men rushed at her. Drawing on years of combat experience, Hela managed to hold her ground for the moment.

...

Asgard, Realm of the Gods

Watching the fight unfold between Hela and the Earthlings, Thor felt a pang of embarrassment, his face reddening.

"This is Hela reduced to mortality, and yet she's still this formidable?"

Heimdall, on the other hand, seemed unsurprised.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Syd, however, wasn't paying much attention to Hela. His focus was on the man named Xu Wenwu and the ten rings on his arms.

Ten Rings?

The sounds of the skirmish between Hela and the black-clad men echoed through the air. From a distance, Xu Wenwu observed the scene with mild surprise.

She was holding her own against so many of his subordinates? And with such well-honed combat experience?

When he saw her grab a dagger from one of his men's belts, clearly ready to use it, Xu Wenwu decided to step in.

Extending his left arm, two of the five golden rings on his left wrist emitted a blue glow and shot forward with a metallic whistle.

The rings collided with the dagger in Hela's hand, knocking it away.

With a flick of his wrist, the two rings returned to Xu Wenwu, neatly sliding back onto his arm.

Hela turned, startled, to see Xu Wenwu stretching out both arms. The rings on his wrists flew out, encircling her like a rope.

The ten rings glowed with blue energy, linking together and binding Hela tightly.

"What is this?"

Hela's face was filled with shock as she struggled against the restraints.

No matter how much she struggled, she couldn't break free of these strange bindings.

Quickly, she realized something. Furrowing her brows, she muttered, "This power doesn't belong to this world!"

Xu Wenwu responded coolly, "Neither do you."

Clearly, he had figured something out.

In the next instant, he clenched his right fist, and the ten rings tightened. Hela fell to her knees, unable to withstand the pressure.

The humiliation of being subdued ignited a burning fury within her. Glaring at the approaching man, she growled, "If my crown were with me, you'd be the one kneeling before me!"

To her surprise, Xu Wenwu smiled. "Then let me see for myself."

"What?" Hela was caught off guard.

The rings that bound her flew back to Xu Wenwu's arms.

Regaining her freedom, Hela stared intently at him, her cold smile returning as she realized he was serious.

As she walked toward her crown, she sneered, "I must admit, letting me retrieve the tool of your doom... I can't tell if you're brave or just foolish."

Xu Wenwu remained unbothered.

His confidence in the ten rings left him unimpressed by the idea that this woman could become a threat after reclaiming her crown.

"Go ahead. Put it on," he said.

Hela chuckled coldly, bent down, and reached out to grab the crown.

She tugged, but the crown didn't budge.

"Hmm, that's stuck tight."

Her smile faltered, and her laughter grew uneasy as panic crept into her expression. She tugged again, but still, the crown wouldn't move.

"Get up!"

"Come on!"

Forcing a smile, Hela muttered, "What's wrong with the gravity here?"

"Never mind," she said, attempting a few more pulls, only to meet the same result.

At that moment, it dawned on her-this was Odin's doing.

Looking up at the sky, she finally cracked, shouting, "Father, please, don't do this to me!"

"Ahhh!"

With a furious roar, Hela gripped the crown tightly, straining to lift it. Her expression twisted with desperation and despair until, finally, she gave up, panting heavily.

Xu Wenwu approached, watching her closely. "Who are you, really?"

By now, he had pieced together some clues. His instincts and observations told him that the otherworldly object likely did belong to this woman, though her current state left him

puzzled.

"I told you," Hela snarled angrily, "I am Hela, Goddess of Death!"

Xu Wenwu raised an eyebrow, his curiosity deepening. "Oh? Then why are you in this state?"

Under the scrutiny of over twenty pairs of eyes, Hela fell silent for a moment before speaking

bitterly.

"The old fool... my father... He waged wars and used battles to fuel his ambitions. When my ambitions surpassed his, he called me a monster and sealed me away."

"When I broke free and sought revenge, I almost defeated him. But then my monstrous

brother appeared."

"He... he defeated me."

Hearing this, Xu Wenwu and his subordinates grew even more intrigued.

Regardless of whether her claim to divinity was true, her story was undeniably fascinating.

They were also curious about the brother she spoke of. What kind of person was he, and how

powerful?

Xu Wenwu voiced the question on everyone's mind. "This brother of yours... is he very

strong?"

The moment he asked, he saw a rare look of fear flash across Hela's face.

Hela muttered, "He's a monster. I've never seen anyone like him."
