Chapter 1357: The Mystery of the Feast (7)

Two days before the wedding ceremony, Schiller was woken up by the sunlight shining directly into Asgard in Asgard, an empty island floating in the universe, not revolving around the stars, where all the light comes from the World Tree, and the sun rises and sets without any heat.

Therefore, the morning sun here has a chill to it, and the fog brought by the abundant energy of the World Tree makes the sunlight shining through the gauze curtains particularly soothing, and the gods from Northern Europe love this glowing atmosphere with melancholy blues.

A knock knock sounded outside the door, Schiller said "Please come in", a goddess smiled and pushed the door open, placed an invitation on the table at the door, and said, "Hello sir, there will be an Asgardian special concert tonight in the Asgard Auditorium, if you are interested, please ring the service bell in formal attire around 7:10 tonight, and someone will take you to the auditorium." ”

Schiller was a little surprised, so he asked: "Aren't concerts and other receptions held after the ceremony?" ”

"No, sir, I know it's not quite like most civilized etiquette, Asgard is to entertain first, and then the wedding ceremony, so that the guests who come here can better feel our cultural atmosphere and have a deeper understanding of the atmosphere of the wedding ceremony."

"Okay, I see, so, what's the reception besides the concert?"

"After tonight's concert, there will be no special activities today, but tomorrow morning you can go to the Exposition Pavilion in Asgard for an art exhibition, or you can go to the Library to read Asgard's history and culture books."

"The night after tomorrow we will hold a ball in the main hall of Asgard, this is the most important reception, His Majesty the King and the future Queen of God and all the important guests will not be absent, please be sure to be on time."

"Thank you, Your Highness the Goddess, can I go talk to a few friends during the day today? I haven't seen them in a long time, so I won't miss a concert. ”

"Of course, sir, you are free to arrange the time during the day today, and we will see you tonight, and have a good time."

After saying that, the goddess closed the door and left, Schiller let out a sigh of relief, and had to admit that if the Asgardians are willing to maintain a good attitude towards you, then it is actually very comfortable to get along with them, these gods are not only pleasing to the eye, but also have a temperament that makes people feel the boldness and enthusiasm of the sea civilization.

Schiller walked to the door and picked up the invitation, and saw that the specific time and address were written on it, and even included the arrangements for the next two days, but as the goddess said, most of the daytime was free activities, and the guests could communicate freely.

This arrangement is very clever, everyone actually knows that the theme of attending a wedding is not a wedding, people just need an excuse to bring everyone together and solve the social problems of the interstellar society in the next ten years or even decades.

Schiller, of course, also has a problem to solve, and that is the question about Thanos and the Dark Quadrant.

Presumably some people still remember that there were a few members of the old Skrull Empire who were exiled to Earth before, although the decision of a stupid general made most of them copy the abilities of humans and were also infected by human thoughts, and now they are all on the side of humans, but there are also a few members who are unwilling to give up and want to rebuild the Skrull Empire.

They do not recognize the current militaristic Skrull Empire as their homeland, and they do not want to go back, but want to find a new land and develop it from scratch.

Although the universe is large, there are not many places suitable for building homes, and more importantly, they must stay away from the sphere of influence of the Neo-Skrull Empire, otherwise they will be wiped out once discovered.

At the beginning, Schiller showed them a clear way, at that time, Thanos had just provoked Eternity, and Eternity directly cut out the dark dimension and threw it on the outer wall of the universe to hang, where the members of the old Skrull Empire made their home.

But now, Thanos has used the Xia Empire's dimension cutting device to pack and bring back the resources of other universe Thanos, then he will definitely need a place to stay, and the Xia Empire's dimensional cutting device can just remove a dimension and sew it back.

Then Thanos' best choice is to put the dark dimension that was cut back back to its original position, but now that the original position is occupied by others, Thanos is a little difficult.

One might wonder if one Titan couldn't beat a few Skruls? But don't forget, the veteran clone at the head of the Skrulls happens to be Captain America, and he hits anyone.

What's even more terrifying is that there is also a Schiller among the Skrulls.

Originally, the Skrull General who cloned Nick wanted the last member who did not choose a cloned object to clone Schiller, but was directly reverse-infected by Schiller.

Now he is a member of the tower's personality, there are so many personalities in the tower, and he is not inferior to the personality of a Skrull, but the difference is that he has a separate Skrull body that can move freely, and he doesn't have to compete with other Schillers.

However, there is also a disadvantage that the Skrulls can only copy the ability, not the plug-in equipment they carry, this Skrul Schiller has no gray fog, and his self-protection ability is not very strong, and the security problem limits his play, so far he is only active near the dark quadrant.

But this is enough for Thanos to have a headache, in front of him is a five-five captain who can't be beaten by anyone, and there is a scheming Pope No. 2 squatting in the back, if the Infinity Stones of other universes can be used, maybe they can fight a dozen, but if it can't be used, Thanos can only choose to outwit it.

Because of this situation, Schiller didn't wait to find Thanos, but Thanos came to find him first.

Asgard's restaurant is located on the second floor of Asgard, and the main color here is still gold, but the edges of the curved dome and the decorations on the walls are dark blue, while the armchairs near the golden table are dark red, and the walls are slightly antique cream white to neutralize the collision of these strong colors, which looks noble and gorgeous with a sense of heaviness.

When Schiller walked into the restaurant, he couldn't help but look up at the gorgeous palace decoration, Asgard's Asgard Palace, also known as Odin's Golden Palace, this palace lived up to its fame, and Schiller was the first time to visit this palace in such detail, so he was fascinated.

It wasn't until the waiter in the restaurant led him to the table that Schiller came back to his senses, and when he looked up, he saw a purple-skinned giant selecting food from the table.

There are a lot of Asgardian special diets here, most of them are barbecue, Asgard belongs to the maritime civilization and almost does not raise livestock, so the source of meat is some monsters in the nine kingdoms, looking at many unknown monster meat, Schiller is a little at a loss, and at this time, a voice sounded in his ears:

"You can have some of that, it's very similar to the lamb on Earth, a kind of herd-living blue-eared sheep from the edge of the Nine Kingdoms."

Schiller turned his head and saw Thanos standing beside him, and Schiller said in a brisk tone: "Your Majesty Thanos, good morning, why did you come so early today?" ”

Of course, Thanos heard what Schiller was saying, and he looked around and found that there were indeed fewer people in the restaurant, so his behavior of pretending to meet by chance was a little embarrassing.

Schiller is a person who can't get up at five o'clock, and many people know about his habits, and it is not difficult for Thanos to investigate Schiller's routine.

But what he didn't expect was that Schiller's healthy routine was unique even in the universe, to be precise, there were only two of them in the restaurant except for the waiters.

"Let's go sit over there." Schiller took some simple pastries, walked to the window with a plate, and the two came to a table next to a tall statue and sat down, Schiller took the knife and fork from the waiter's hand, and took the initiative to ask, "Are you going to the evening concert?" ”

"Of course, I'm interested in Asgard's music, and I love their rallying calls and war drums, which remind me of the days of Titan."

Thanos also picked up a knife and fork, and what was a little surprising was that Thanos's cutlery was used very well, and he maintained meticulous dining etiquette like a real gentleman of human society.

"Is that the kind of drum you played when you destroyed Titan?"

"Destruction and art are not in conflict." Thanos shook his head and said, "Asgard has destroyed many more civilizations and lives than I do. ”

"Indeed." Schiller turned his head to look out the window, and the buildings of Asgard in the distance were more brilliant in the morning light, and art would always grow more vigorously in two extremes of soil, one was extreme hardship and cold, and the other was abundance and abundance without worrying about survival.

Asgard is clearly the latter, so the art here is always exciting and magnificent, whether it's architecture or music, all in the quest to be shocking, and perhaps the same is true of the former Eternals.

"Uranus must have been paid attention to in the development of the solar system of mankind, right?" Thanos asked, with a smirk on his face.

"Are you worried about humanity discovering the remnants of the Eternals?" Schiller cut a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, and said, "To be honest, we weren't too interested in it, and you didn't leave anything good...... However, I'm interested in the story of the Eternals, can you tell me about it? ”

Thanos' hand holding the cutlery paused, he looked at Schiller and said, "Didn't the Supreme Mage tell you our story?" ”

"It's not the same as it is told by someone who witnessed it, and perhaps another one of me, after hearing the story of your displacement, will also feel a little sympathy for your displaced situation."

Thanos showed an inexplicable smile, he looked down at the food on the plate and said, "I am the third generation descendant of the Eternals, and you must have seen that the Eternals are a race that came out of the earth. ”

"Our living habits, etiquette and culture have a lot in common with human beings, and the city of Titannos established on the earth at that time was an ancient civilization that was glorious on the earth."

"Most of the tragedies in this world stem from the greed for power, and my grandfather, Kronos, the leader of the Eternals at the time, caused a terrifying explosion while conducting experiments on the life force of the universe, and the glorious city of Titanos was annihilated."

"Kronos's body was destroyed, but the Eternals possessed a powerful spirit, and in the explosion he transformed his life form, abandoned his body, and became one with a part of the rules of time, becoming a god of the universe."

"But alas, he was unable to undo the tragedy of the Eternals, after the terrible explosion, the Eternals suffered heavy casualties, just as all intelligent life suffered a catastrophe, and terrible civil strife swept through the ruins of Titannos."

"Chronos' younger brother Ouranos believed that his brother was irresponsible and was responsible for the heavy casualties of the Eternals, so a fight broke out between them, but unfortunately, Ouranos failed to defeat Chronos, and after the defeat, he was exiled and led a detachment of Eternals to the moons of Uranus and Saturn, Titan, and rebuilt the city."

"After the destruction of Titanos, Kronos's eldest son Zuras led a group of Eternals from the ruins of Titanus and came to Mount Olympus in Greece to establish the Olympian god line, and the other three races that did not agree with him took root in three different places."

"After the chaos is over, there is another problem that plagues the Eternals, and that is the old question of the establishment of the Crown."

"Kronos doesn't just have a son from Zuras, he also has a younger son, Arals, but he hasn't liked him all the time, just like Loki was in Asgard's previous situation."

"Interesting, isn't it? Everything in this world is like a similar cycle after another. Thanos shook his head and said with some sighs: "However, the little prince of the Eternals, Arals, did not have the good fortune of Loki, and after losing the battle for the throne, he was expelled from Olympus and exiled to Titan. ”

"At that time, the Titans had the Eternals left behind by Ouranos, so Arals took his followers and merged with this Eternals to create the Titans."

"And this His Majesty Arals is my father."
