Chapter 980: Chapter 797 Home Field Advantage
“Ah, I didn’t expect the Thunder God’s Hammer to actually find the destined one…”
At this moment, Sif’s expression was quite complex.
The Thunder God’s Hammer lay on the table, not even shaking the table, looking as light as a feather.
However, she knew that apart from the recognized person, no one else could lift it.
The Divine King Odin is the supreme ruler of the Nine Realms!
Thinking about Thor’s banishment and his current unknown fate, her heart was filled with mixed feelings.
The three warriors of the Immortal Palace might have slightly different thoughts, but generally, their feelings were quite similar to Sif’s.
With the Crown Prince exiled and now facing an unknown catastrophe, now that the new master of the Thunder God’s Hammer has emerged, it even gave them a sense of ‘destiny’.
This really is too coincidental!
“So, what’s the situation now? As you see, I am a Mage, the appointed next Protector of Earth, oh, also known as your Midgard. I came here because I divined a crisis.”
Initially reassured and even feeling admiration towards Tao Yu, Vostag frowned upon hearing Tao Yu’s formal self-introduction.
That plump belly of his even trembled, and then he spoke,
“Oh, my friends, you may not be very clear about Asgard, Midgard is also under our protection, and we, or rather the Supreme King of Asgard, are the true protectors of the Nine Realms.”
“I think the Supreme Mage and the Divine King Odin must have their own understanding, and you might want to consult them about this.”
Tao Yu wouldn’t believe that the Ancient One and Odin were strangers, with the Ancient One always focusing on the dimensions of the Otherworld, while Odin was nominally the master of the Nine Realms; both had sufficient mutual understanding.
However, the ironic thing now is that the Ancient One was being eroded by the Abyss, and Odin had entered Odin’s Sleep, both looking as if their days were numbered.
“Earth is not anybody’s territory, anybody’s.”
At that moment, Tony also spoke up, disliking the way the other party talked in a condescending tone of being protectors while being actually on Earth.
Vostag was about to say something else but was stopped by Sif.
Instead, she looked Tao Yu up and down somewhat strangely, then glanced at the hammer on the table again.
“You just said you are a Mage??”
Sif’s words, also made the previously silenced Vostag burst out laughing again,
“Oh, my friend, I didn’t notice you were joking just now. You, clearly such a brave warrior, humorously claimed to be a Mage, haha~, you’re quite the jester, I like making friends with folk like you.”
As he laughed, his beard jubilantly quivered.
This even made Tony laugh along, also going over to pat Vostag’s shoulder,
“Hey, I like the way you talk too. He’s really funny, the hammer-wielding Mage, right?”
“You finally caught the chance, right?”
Tao Yu was speechless towards Tony, but now wasn’t the time to waste, cutting directly to the chase,
“Now is not the time for this, I have divined a major problem here, you might be clear with me, did something happen to Thor? The Thunder God’s Hammer has been acting up recently.”
Hearing Tao Yu’s words, everyone’s hearts tightened, recalling the most important business of this encounter, then the most eloquent Sif spoke,
“This is what happened: Thor previously made some mistakes and was deprived of his Divine Power by the Divine King, banished to the mortal realm, along with the Thunder God’s Hammer being cast down too, how to say…”
Sif organized her thoughts, then continued,
“It might be different from what you imagine, Thor is the Thunder God, the Crown Prince of Asgard, the future King of Asgard, so this time it seems more like a test for him, thus a trial from the Divine King was placed on the Thunder God’s Hammer, and finally, this gentleman obtained it.”
While Tony had been a nonchalant spectator munching popcorn this whole time, his heart jumped at this point,
“Wait, that Thunder God is the Crown Prince? Where is he now?”
Different from academics like Jane and Dr. Eric who accompanied him, Tony, even though not fond of the circles of commerce, had a distinctive, individualistic view.
During Captain America 3, despite his dislike for constraints, Tony ended up compromising.
So now, hearing that the Thunder God was the Crown Prince of Asgard, Tony sensed trouble!
Although he disliked the condescending tone of those claiming to be protectors, it was undeniable that the ability of Asgard to easily cross interstellar distances to Earth likely meant formidable strength!
The master of the Nine Realms, meaning they probably colonize other worlds similar to Earth.
Even though Tony verbally didn’t acknowledge this dominion or believe that the other party genuinely had governance,
still, how could Asgard be anything but a huge entity that the entire Earth would need to deal with!
And now you tell me this place’s Crown Prince showed up on Earth and seemingly got into trouble?
This caused Tony a moment of powerless exasperation.
Did the Divine King Odin become senile, making such a rash decision?
Good for you, throwing him somewhere in the Nine Realms for a trial, but if something really did happen on Earth, that would indeed be difficult to explain!
The cause of World War I, wasn’t it similar to this kind of situation?
This suddenly made Tony feel a tremendous headache.
