Thanos didn't want to be a villain.

Chapter 193 Thanos the Collaborator

A few days later, Dio felt he had rested enough, so he planned to activate the teleportation to Thanos and take over the world. However, as soon as he stepped out, he saw Hela dragging a bruised and swollen Thanos to his doorstep.

"Hela? You're finally back!" Dio was overjoyed to see Hela. After all, they were husband and wife, and he missed her after being separated for so long.

But when I saw Thanos with a bruised and swollen face, I was stunned. What happened?

Hela was also taken aback, looking at Thanos in her hand and then at Dio in front of her.

"This isn't you?" Hela, having figured it out, casually tossed Thanos aside, clapped her hands, and went inside.

Dio was baffled: "Of course this isn't me..."

Dio then used telepathy to examine Thanos's memories and discovered that it was all a misunderstanding.

It turns out that Thanos planned to go out and find a job today, since his world was basically doomed and it was a foregone conclusion that it would be ruled by Dio.

He didn't really want to go back, since there was no point in staying in this place of sorrow. He planned to join the empire, do whatever he could to get by for the rest of his life.

But halfway there, they saw Hela.

Thanos also knew Hela.

After all, she was Odin's eldest daughter, and also his wife in this world, Thanos couldn't help but take a second look.

After all, he couldn't think of anything about Hela that attracted him to this world.

Then Hela discovered it.

Hela looked at Thanos and her first question was, "A clone? Dio, are you getting more and more backward? You even created a clone. What for? To reminisce about the past?"

Thanos then realized that Hela actually thought he was her clone in this world and was controlling him remotely.

Those around them suddenly realized that it was His Majesty's clone. No wonder it looked so similar. But why was it purple?

However, the others didn't care, and the bolder children pulled their parents to take pictures with Thanos.

Unfortunately, Thanos had no choice but to bow his head when he was under someone else's roof, so he posed for photos with the citizens in a friendly manner for a while.

The children even joked that His Majesty was socially awkward and needed clones to go out.

Thanos was completely bewildered by the children's mockery.

After a long while, Thanos finally broke free and then told Hela that he was not Dio, only to be mocked by Hela.

The gist of it is that he dared to do it but not admit it, making him a coward.

Thanos didn't tolerate it and immediately retorted with a sarcastic remark.

Hela, with her fiery temper, gave Thanos a good beating and even joked, "How did you even get out the door if you're so weak? You probably need a stroller to carry you, right?"

Thanos not only felt utterly humiliated, but he was also severely injured by a woman he once looked down upon, and he fainted halfway through the ordeal.

Moreover, Hela is truly powerful, unlike the Hela in Thanos's memories; it feels like she's a completely different person!

However, from another perspective, Hela probably felt that she had finally defeated him, and was very happy and spared no effort in mocking him. Even if she would be beaten up when she got home, she didn't care. At least she had gotten rid of the pent-up anger she had felt for so many years.

Dio shook his head and looked at Hela, saying, "How could I be so bored as to replicate a clone?"

Hela took a sip of water and whispered, "How would I know what you're thinking? Didn't you create two clones a while ago? Who knows if they were made based on your own genes?"

Dio rolled his eyes helplessly: "Then how did you figure out he wasn't a clone?"

Hela said, "I only realized something was wrong when I got home and saw you. It wasn't until I compared the soul fluctuations of the two of you that I realized I had mistaken you for someone else."

Imperial law forbids clones from having souls and self-awareness. You can create a clone of yourself for organ transplant surgery when your organs are failing, but you cannot give the clone a soul, even transferring your own soul to it is illegal.

At most, a mechanical device can be implanted in the brain and then remotely controlled by the mind. However, this is usually something that wealthy people who don't want to go out do. Ordinary people would at most get one for organ transplantation.

and……

"Although your soul fluctuations are similar, there are too many differences. It's easy to spot them if you look closely."

"Hehe, you only realized it when you got home."

"Who would sense soul fluctuations upon first meeting someone?" Hela pouted, unconvinced.

Dio was exasperated. How could someone so old act like a child?

Close the door and completely forget about Thanos, who has been left aside.

.........

Thor had already been released from the universe occupied by the Destroyer Emperor.

He also longed to remain in Dio's universe, after all, Asgard, himself, and his father were there.

But his own universe was gone, leaving only the continent of Asgard, and the whereabouts of his people were unknown.

He wanted to rebuild Asgard on his own, even if it was just a thought, he wanted to accomplish it.

Hyperion in this world has completely given up. He has no idea how long he has been active. The long period of perilous battles has made him lose interest in fighting.

However, he agreed to help Dio in the multiverse-level war, and the rest of the time he would study diligently within the Empire and find a job.

Now, Thanos is acting as a traitor, leading an army to reclaim parts of the universe that were once occupied by the Immortal Emperor.

They spread the word about the benefits of the empire, informed people that the Eternal Emperor had been killed, and persuaded those who had become somewhat numb from enslavement to join the empire.

It can be said that everything went smoothly.

Thanos didn't care about the fact that Hela had beaten him up. He thought that the main problem was that his strength was too weak. Even though he had been ravaged by the Immortal Emperor for so long, it was only because the other side was holding back.

Therefore, Thanos did not care about the differences in Hela's strength across different universes.

To reassure Thanos, Dio gave him some resources and allowed him to cultivate the Devouring Star Technique.

He didn't care whether Thanos would surpass him. In any case, given Dio's current strength, having absorbed the energy of the Immortal Emperor Chen Ergou, how could Thanos possibly surpass him?

dream!

Moreover, Dio himself wouldn't let him live for long, after all, they're all cunning foxes, and everyone knows each other well.

Giving him this thing is just a temporary incentive to keep him focused on his work. Thanos will eventually discover his murderous intent, which will provide some enjoyment when he kills Thanos later. After all, it would be quite boring if it ended too soon.

Moreover, he even searched the mansion of the Longevity Emperor and found many valuable items for himself.

Besides the magical artifacts he forged through trial and error, there were also some treasures from this world.

The entrance to his treasure vault was the head of a star-swallowing monster, and the Infinity Stones were placed in the most conspicuous place in the vault by the Emperor of Immortality, followed by all sorts of strange things.

Surtur's Twilight Greatsword, Odin's Eternal Spear, and Zeus's Thunderfury are passable. But the spoon of the God of Buns, the skull of the Goddess of the Black Panther, the scepter of the Celestials, and even a complete set of Celestial armor are all included!

I have to say, Chen Ergou, you really have a twisted sense of humor.
