For a country in the era of feudal civilization, the monarchy is a very suitable physique, a wise monarch will bless his will on the country, with his own wisdom to help the country become stronger, but if you meet a country master who is not so wise, the problem will become very bad, a faint monarch will cause trouble, far more terrible than a war.

So nothing is more important to a ruler than choosing an heir.

However, there is a situation that is more troublesome than encountering the faint king, and that is that the old king will have two very good sons, but the throne... But there is only one.

"Send envoys as soon as possible to pacify some of the rebellious Frost Giants. ”

The temporary regent, who held the eternal spear representing the kingship of Asgard, sat on the throne and issued orders in a very sensible tone, Loki was wearing the armor he only wore in wartime, and two slender golden horned pendants spread backwards from his helmet, which looked strange, but with this solemn palace, there was also a special majesty.

However, this suggestion was opposed by the commander-in-chief, especially a lady in armor, who said in a fierce tone:

"Doesn't that make Asgard weak? The frost giants will know that we are weak and can be bullied, and the next time, they will come to attack! Don't forget, gentlemen!"

The female general looked at the others and said in a loud voice:

"The last time their scouts somehow broke through Heimdall's blockade and surveillance, maybe soon, the heavily armed Frost Giants will be in Asgard!

This argument is obviously also very marketable, especially in a country with relatively militant customs, and the advice of the female generals is very much in line with the views of other generals, who clamored in support and then quarreled with civilian officials who wanted a peaceful settlement of the dispute.

"Bang"

The end of the Eternal Spear collided with the ground of the Golden Palace, making a loud noise that silenced all quarrels, and the generals and ministers stopped arguing and looked at the regent with calm faces, Odin's second son, the trickster and liar, Loki.

"My father, when I was a child and Saul, used to tell us... A wise king doesn't start a war easily, but he is always ready, and that's the problem!"

Loki said to the female general with a calm face:

"Sif, while the Father of the Gods is in a deep slumber, consider the majesty of the Father of the Gods in the hearts of the soldiers, if we lose the symbol of eternal invincibility at the beginning of this war, the war in Asgard will be very difficult, and besides, if we go to war with the Frost Giants now, are we ready for war?"

Sif stopped talking, the goddess who had been following Saurnan to fight in the north was not unaware that Asgard needed time to prepare now, and her rebuttal just now was more out of dissatisfaction with Loki, because she knew that Thor would impulsively attack Jotunheim, which was completely the one in front of Loki, this villain!

Seeing that Sif stopped talking, a trace of pride flashed in Loki's eyes, when it comes to fighting, the three of them are not Sif Sif's opponents, but when it comes to debate, ten Sif together is not enough for him to fight with one hand, the people around his brother are all muscular guys with the same brains as him, and they can't govern the country at all!

"I am the Chosen Monarch of Asgard!"

Loki told himself this in his heart, but he had a very worried expression on the surface: "And we also have to consider Thor, Thor was exiled to Midgard by his father, this news is confidential, I am very worried now, if Laufey, the king of frost giants, knows the news, will he crawl out of the soldiers to loot Thor, or even worse..."

"On that note, Regent, you don't need to worry too much. ”

Heimdall, the gatekeeper who had not spoken, spoke, "The Supreme Mage protects Midgard, and it is impossible for Laufey's men to enter it. ”

"But we can't get in either!"

Sif snorted a little obsessively: "We have no idea about that place, but that old woman guards us like a thief, what a backward and barbaric civilization." ”

"Sif !

The queen of heaven, Frigga stopped Sif from talking, she looked sternly at the warrioress, who had been appointed as the future queen of Thor, and whispered, "Reverence for great power!"

"Alright, that's all for today's meeting, let's do it according to Loki's method!"

The queen waved her hand, and the royal meeting ended, Logan handed the Eternal Spear to the cold-looking Valkyrie King Alvet, a trace of reluctance flashed in his eyes, but it disappeared in an instant, he followed his queen mother out of the Golden Palace, under the sky of Asgard, he took a deep breath and completely released the depression in his heart, at this time, Loki, just wanted to win the throne.

He didn't have any other dangerous thoughts.

"Loki, you seem to be in a bad mood. ”

As the queen of heaven strolled to Vanton, she walked to her astrological tower and casually asked, "Is it because you are worried about Thor?"

"Yes, Queen Mother, we haven't heard from Midgard for 1,000 years, who knows what the situation is in that place now, Thor has been stripped of his divine powers, in case he..."

"No, don't worry, my child, it's not a bunch of savages who live there, they're just as civilized as we are. ”

Frigga smiled, and she patted her son on the shoulder:

"You've done a great job these past few days, and from tomorrow onwards, you'll be fully in charge of the Imperial Council, don't let us down, Loki. ”

"Yes, Queen Mother!"

A hint of joy flashed in Loki's eyes, but soon, he said with some confusion:

"Queen Mother, you are the most powerful magician in Asgard, I would like to ask, is there such a spell that can bypass all magical barriers and directly project someone's voice and image in front of the person you want, or in your head?"

"Huh?"

The queen of Frigga turned her head and looked at her son, "With your talent, Loki, you can cast such a spell at will..."

"No, no, no, Queen Mother, I mean, bypassing the wall of dimensions like the one on the periphery of Midgard..."

Loki lowered his voice:

"I want to use this method to see if Thor is safe..."

"Impossible!"

Queen Friga shook her head: "The power of the Supreme Mage is unimaginable, my son, even I can no longer bypass the dimensional wall without being discovered by her, but if you really want to pass some news to your brother, you can send a trustworthy civilian over, that dimensional wall will only stop the strong, and the weak will be weak, but I don't recommend you to do this, once the rainbow bridge is activated, it will be detected by the Supreme Mage." ”

"But when she was exiled to Thor, the Queen Mother, the Supreme Mage didn't say anything, I think, she was probably not on that planet, do you remember? ”

The queen didn't say anything more, she just shook her head:

"Don't risk it, Loki, I'm going to see your father, get rid of this stupid idea, the cruelty of the Ancient One is something you haven't seen before, and I don't want you to repeat the mistakes of Olympus. ”

But when a person actually decides to do something, it's hard to be convinced, especially for a guy with a gloomy mind like Loki.

So a few days later, Asgard's goalkeeper, Heimdall, welcomed a special visitor at dawn.

"Mr. Regent, I don't think there's anything important lately that requires you to do it personally. ”

Heimdall, the Odin warrior, looked at the hooded Loki with a strange expression, and he whispered, "I can't open the rainbow bridge for you either!"

"Peace of mind, Heimdall!"

Loki pulled his hood down and whispered, "It's just a magic clone, I'm going to make sure my brother is safe in Midgard, or I'm not interested in dealing with politics, just because a brother cares about his brother, help me!" ”

"Your Sol's brotherhood is touching, Loki, but rules are rules!"

Heimdall turned his head and didn't look at Loki at all, but just as he turned around, he saw another Loki sneaking around, and while he wasn't looking, he ran to the console and twisted the sword outward.

"Huh"

The Rainbow Bridge was activated again, and in an instant, another Loki was gone.

Heimdall angrily rushed to the console and closed the Rainbow Bridge, he turned his head and looked at Loki behind him, and the Master of Illusions shrugged:

"As I said, it's just a doppelganger. ”

But whether it was Heimdall or Loki, they all ignored one point, such as the Rainbow Bridge, a super-powerful teleportation device, can easily attract the peeps of other forces, especially when the strongest person in Asgard fell into a deep sleep, just 1 second after Loki's doppelganger jumped into the teleportation channel, the huge space-time power around him suddenly paused for a moment.

"Look, a funny and evil soul..."

A deep voice sounded in Loki's doppelganger's mind, and he tried to escape in horror, but found that the space around him, along with the teleportation pillar of the Rainbow Bridge, was frozen at this moment, and he had nowhere to escape.

"Who are you?"

He shouted, and the voice sounded in his head again:

"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is who you are! and do you know what you're going to do?"

"Sneaky, come out to see me!"

Loki roared, but the next moment, a picture opened up before his eyes, and there was that playful low voice:

"Thousands of years ago, Odin of Asgard led a large army to break through the fortress of the Frost Giants, and he protected the backward world known as Midgard from the Frost Giants, but in that battle, he not only got the Frost Giant's treasure Frost Box, he also got another trophy!"

The picture in front of Loki's eyes flashed, and the young Odin appeared, in front of him was an altar, on which was placed a baby with ice blue skin, and the guards around him stepped forward to kill the child, but Odin stopped him, and the king of the gods held the child in his arms and disappeared in the light.

Loki's mind exploded with terrible thoughts, and the voice asked pretendedly:

"So, guess who that kid is? Don't you really doubt it?Loki Odinson, why are you, unlike your brother, who can't control the lightning power of the Odin family, yet have such amazing magical abilities?"

"It's not true!

Loki roared frantically, and the voice seemed to tease him:

"Oh, poor kid pretending to be an ostrich, burying his head in the sand, telling himself that everything he sees is not true, but you can't fool yourself, Loki Odinson, the world gives everyone a choice, and I think you should have your own choice, instead of living your own little life in lies and illusions, by the way, do you know what is the truth about Thor's exile?"

"Want to know? I'll show you little by little, and then you'll know what you're going to do when you go to Earth this time!"

"Who are you, bastard, don't pretend to be a god in front of the gods, tell me who you are!"

"I, are you asking my name? Hehe, you don't need to know my name, Loki Odinson, you're too weak, you're just a fraudster who can't do anything, and I, I'm the conqueror, and when I'm done with what I'm doing, I'll go to you and your poor Nine Kingdoms, and get back what is rightfully mine, piece by piece!"
