115. Pym particles
"You've been in Asgard for so long, could it be that His Majesty wants to promote the close relationship between the two civilized worlds by marrying you?"
Boarding the elevator, Tony discarded the inexplicable sorrow in his heart, returned to his usual cynical and playful style, and began to guess the reason why Sean went to Asgard.
He winked at Sean, who managed one of the largest scientific research institutions on the planet and served as the top advisor to S.H.I.E.L.D., and was ready to influence the decision-making of the World Security Council.
If Odin really has the heart to deepen the relationship between Asgard and Earth, it is not surprising that he asked for marriage, after all, it is a civilized country similar to the Middle Ages, and maybe this royal habit is still retained.
"Although I am very excited, King Asgard does not have a suitable daughter."
Sean was noncommittal, the eldest princess of Asgard, her Royal Highness, did not have a good temperament, was unruly, ambitious, and even Odin in his heyday a thousand years ago could not be suppressed, and finally had to imprison Hela in the underworld of Heim.
"That's a pity, I thought you could have an affair in Asgard, anyway, there is no reproductive isolation between the two civilizations......"
"If you have an idea for an in-depth exchange with the beauty of Asgard, let Thor introduce you another day."
Seeing that Tony brought the topic more and more crookedly, Sean couldn't help coughing twice and interrupted the other party.
Although the two civilizations began to establish exchanges, the earth's understanding of Asgard was limited to Norse mythology and a part of the written materials, which was like a fog and a flower, and it was not clear.
Although the World Security Council had long had the idea of sending a diplomatic team to Asgard to conduct an on-the-spot investigation, it has not been able to do so for various reasons.
On the one hand, both sides remain on the requisite vigilance, and although the two civilizations cooperate with each other and appear to be united with each other, in reality each is on guard; On the other hand, countries have different opinions on how to treat Asgard.
So in Tony's view, Sean, as the first earthling to set foot in Asgard, may be able to say classic quotes similar to "This is a small step for a person, but a big leap for mankind" like Armstrong in the future, which is engraved in the vast history.
"What does Thor's hometown look like? Listening to his description, it is like a medieval kingdom like a paradise, and if I can afford to hold his hammer, I can regain the power of the first night like the previous lords......"
Tony's eyes were full of curiosity, after S.H.I.E.L.D. formulated the strategic defense plan of the nine star fields, he once joked, when humans broke free from the warm embrace of the earth and stepped towards the sea of stars, he would definitely let go of everything in Stark Industries and become an interstellar ranger, or a space pirate or something, and experience that kind of adventure and excitement of life.
Just like Han Solo, he may also meet the princess of some civilized empire for a romantic encounter - of course, this sentence was revealed when he had a private party with Sean.
"Asgard, you will know that the description of language is pale after all."
Sean replied with a smile.
He didn't actually stay in Asgard for long, but there would be some slight differences in the speed of time between the two civilizations.
He simply talked to Odin about Loki, Hela, Thor, and the terrible prophecies to come, and then spent some time in the library in Asgard.
"I had a deep conversation with Thor's father about the famous Norse mythology, Ragnarok."
Sean's eyes flickered, Odin was very worried that Ragnarok's prophecy would come true, and the three goddesses of fate gave an ominous warning, roughly saying that Asgard would turn into a sea of fire and be burned by the flames.
Atropos, Croto, and Laxis, the three known as "fate", are the gods who weave the thread of life, and have long foretold the arrival of Ragnarok.
Odin confessed that it would be the end of Asgard, the stars would fall from the sky, time would cease to exist, Asgard had become a sea of fire, pillars of fire ran through the entire world, smoke swept away the top of the mountain, and the world tree that supported the vast land was engulfed in flames and collapsed.
"I thought it was just a story...... However, Norse mythology is based on Asgard, so it is possible that Ragnarok is a fact, and it seems to make sense. ”
Tony's head shook for a moment, and he quickly accepted that there was a mythical prophecy in this universe.
For him, this is nothing more than to predict the possible trend and change law of the development of the object according to various relevant information, intelligence and data related to the internal and external systems of the prediction object system under the condition of knowing the correct direction, so as to obtain future information.
Ultron's "chaos" algorithm can also do this.
"Thor is ready to stop this prophecy from happening, but in general, prophecy is as inexplicable as it ends, and the outcome is often fatalistic."
A smile appeared on Sean's lips, and Odin had long since learned that Thor had traveled to Muspelheim, the legendary Land of Fire, a hot place guarded by the flame giant Sutert.
However, the king of Asgard apparently did not think that by doing so, he could prevent the arrival of Ragnarok.
"And what are you going to do?"
Tony stepped out of the elevator and couldn't help but ask before leaving.
Now that the crisis of Ultron is successfully resolved, he has to rush back to appease Pepper's anger, even though the bombed-out waterfront villa is insured, and the expensive budget for renovating is nothing in Stark's eyes.
However, it takes a lot of effort and time to design a satisfactory interior style, to select a good art with the potential for appreciation, and to reorganize the workers.
"I haven't thought about it for the time being, after all, S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't have that much power to interfere in the internal disputes of the cosmic civilization, and even if what Odin said is the truth, then this is actually a private matter of their family...... Could it be that Thor was subjected to domestic violence, and the World Security Council can still approve me to lead the army there? ”
Sean shrugged, a relaxed smile on his face, and replied in a teasing tone.
"Remember you have a hearing next week, and you can think of a reason to explain the trouble that Ultron has caused."
Seeing Tony, who turned around and was about to leave, Sean didn't forget to remind.
This time, Stark couldn't get through as easily as he had with the Department of Defense before, and the people in the World Security Council were furious at his behavior.
Especially thinking of the great harm that Ultron is very likely to cause, it makes these big people standing at the top of the power pyramid feel uneasy.
If it weren't for the fact that Tony was one of the first superheroes to sign the registration bill, and his status and fame were quite outstanding, and he was worried about making a bigger move, I'm afraid S.H.I.E.L.D. would have received an arrest warrant long ago.
"Alright, you don't have to laugh so happily when you see Stark unlucky."
Sean stretched out his fingers and flicked them lightly on Wanda's smooth forehead. 、
He turned his head to see the female secretary with a small face, her eyes were bent into crescents, and she had a happy expression that could not be concealed.
This ambiguous action that was close to flirting frightened Wanda to quickly glance around, then wrinkled her nose and said dissatisfiedly: "Mr. Sypers, you have to respect yourself...... Ah! ”
"I don't like to talk to my boss in less of a formulaic tone."
Sean looked at Wanda, who was covering her forehead and was quite aggrieved, and corrected seriously.
"By the way, let Raven prepare the information of Claus Technologies, I happen to be a little interested in Hank Pym's life's work."
After a few small talks, Sean turned the conversation back to work.
At the level of microscopic and quantum technology, Ambrera's accumulation is quite weak, and the Pym particle can make up for part of the gap.
And maybe it will allow Sean to meet a heroine of the last century.
