Thanos didn't want to be a villain.

The City of All Power is the gathering place of all the gods in the entire universe.

Its appearance resembles a floating aerial fortress, with several massive buildings connected around it, protecting the center.

"The City of All Power! This is where all the gods in the universe gather. I've been here a few times with Odin before. I remember the other gods were all too weak, and I didn't have a good impression of Zeus," Hela exclaimed, looking at the City of All Power ahead.

At this moment, the omnipotent city held a welcoming ceremony for Dio's arrival.

Dio followed Hela, listening to her words and thinking about Zeus's image as a scoundrel in mythology, and nodded knowingly.

Soon the two arrived inside the City of All Power, where Zeus and Odin sent people to greet them.

"Welcome, renowned Thanos, to the City of All Power! I, Athena, have come to greet you on behalf of my father, Zeus."

"Heimdall, I have come on the orders of Odin, the King of Gods, to welcome Mr. Thanos. Welcome to the City of the Almighty."

As soon as I entered the City of All Power, I saw a man and a woman there to greet me.

Heimdall Dio was familiar with her, but she was much younger than he remembered. Moreover, if the blonde, blue-eyed beauty next to her hadn't spoken up, Dio wouldn't have known she was Athena!

After all, Athena has never appeared in the Marvel movies.

"I am deeply honored that you two have come out to greet me. Please."

After exchanging a few casual words, Dio extended his hand politely and said...

The two nodded and led the way.

As they walked, Dio noticed that Hela's expression was off and quickly looked down to ask, "What's wrong? Did someone make you angry?"

Hela rolled her eyes at Dio and gestured towards Athena with her chin.

"Be careful of this woman. Although she's not strong in a one-on-one fight, she's very cunning and ruthless, and she loves to scheme," Hela said seriously.

Dio thought about the polarized opinions netizens had of Athena in mythology before he traveled through time, pondered for a moment, and nodded to indicate that he understood.

Soon, Dio saw the entire interior of the omnipotent city.

The buildings and various roads inside the Omnipotent City are suspended and interwoven, creating an indescribably luxurious and magnificent spectacle.

Moreover, its architectural style blends all architectural styles from the East and West. Although it looks incongruous, it is quite surprising at first glance.

"I'd really like to know who was in charge of the architecture here. It doesn't match at all. This mixed style looks like a pot of swill," Dio muttered to Hela beside him, frowning.

Hela nodded. She didn't really like it either. The mix of architectural styles from all over the universe looked novel at first glance, but after looking at it for a while, she really didn't like it.

Soon, the group entered a large hall.

The space here is very spacious, and each deity has their own seat.

Because Zeus, the king of the Olympian gods, and Odin, the king of the Asgardian gods, were simultaneously holding a banquet, this gathering of the gods was extremely lively.

However, the lively atmosphere quieted down the moment a few people walked in.

"Haha, my guest, you've finally arrived!" Zeus laughed first.

"Gentlemen, a warm welcome to my guest, Thanos, an Eternal from Titan!" Zeus shouted, and the surrounding gods applauded in welcome.

Dio raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

He thought Zeus and Odin would only invite some gods from their own pantheon, but to his surprise, the entire hall was almost full!

Dio flashed a masterful fake smile and nodded to the gods.

"Haha, don't be so formal with my guest. (After all, everyone witnessed the power you displayed in the battle that destroyed the Kree Empire some time ago. Such strength was enough to make you stand out among most of the gods present.)" Zeus secretly passed the last sentence to Dio's ears.

This made Dio look at Zeus, who was dressed in typical Spartan muscle armor but had a bit of a belly, with a higher regard.

After all, this guy's performance in the movie was really terrible.

However, judging from the current situation, this subtle operation of "transmitting sound into secret" is not something that just any god can do.

After all, people are used to spending money lavishly, so who would bother to think about these micromanagements?

Zeus saw that Dio remained silent and had no objection, so he invited Dio to take a seat.

"Well then, let the party begin today! But to avoid frightening our new guests, it will be a simple gathering. So my friends, eat and drink to your heart's content!" Zeus cheered, raising his hands high. Not far away, Odin grimaced and fanned himself in disgust, as if there was something repulsive about him.

Dio asked Hela curiously, "What does Zeus mean? Is there some kind of gathering going on?"

Hela also showed the same disgusted expression as Odin, and said in a cold tone, "Zeus likes to throw lewd parties."

understood.

Dio understood immediately.

Just from those two words, Dio knew what the gatherings used to be like.

To be honest, he truly deserves to be called a god, and he's the main character of a mythological storyline.

A gathering—no, it should be called a banquet now.

The gods or their servants related to music and art from various pantheons began to play music, and the dancers began to dance gracefully.

The gods who knew each other began to gather together, either chatting or drinking.

Of course, as the protagonist of the banquet, Dio naturally attracted many gods to come and toast and chat. Fortunately, the fine wine and food were not intoxicating, so Dio was able to handle the situation.

After a long while, Dio finally managed to finish dealing with the situation.

Dio looked at the fruit and delicacies in front of him, but he had no appetite. His eyes darted around as if he were searching for something.

“As the star of this banquet, you are exceptionally popular.” Just as Dio was searching for something, a female voice sounded beside him.

Dio turned his head and saw Athena.

However, just as Dio was about to greet them, Hela spoke first.

"It's been a long time, Athena. May I ask what brings you here?" Hela's tone was unfriendly, and her face was full of vigilance.

Athena smiled slightly, which, from Dio's perspective, resembled a smiling fox.

Recalling Hela's previous assessment of Athena, Dio slowly became wary.

"It's nothing, I just came to see the main character of today's banquet. What's wrong? So many people have already come, one more won't make a difference." Athena held her wine glass, her smile unwavering.

Hela looked even worse.

"Of course you're welcome." Dio chuckled and finished his drink.

"We've finished drinking. If there's nothing else, we have some things to do, so we'll be leaving now." Before Athena could react, he pulled Hela toward Odin.

Athena's smile froze, and she was caught between a rock and a hard place, unsure whether to drink from the wine glass or put it down.

"An interesting person."
