Chapter 244: Thor's Growth
In fact, Odin saw it better than anyone else.
He's right, the current Thor shouldn't actually be called Thor.
Instead, it should be called the Hammer God.
Mjernir's hammer is indeed Thor's most handy weapon, but it also brings Thor to a height that does not belong to him.
Without the hammer, Thor's combat power will be greatly reduced.
Every qualified warrior, after losing his weapon, does lose a part of his combat effectiveness.
However, their own strength is far stronger than weapons.
To give a very simple example, it is also Ronan's personal experience.
When he was in the 616 universe vs. Thanos, the terrifying strength shown by Thanos still has an impression of him.
Thanos, who has the Infinity Gauntlet, even gave the members of the Avengers a chance to stop him.
But without the Infinity Gauntlet, he beat the members of the Avengers to pieces.
You know, it's the Avengers with the addition of Captain Marvel and Scarlet Witch.
But it's still not Thanos' opponent.
From this point of view, a powerful weapon may add a little combat power to a strong man.
But it can also cause him problems.
To sum up, it can be said that striking iron also needs its own hardness.
"Maybe it's a little too cruel for him."
"And Lady Frigga if she knew I hid you here, I'm afraid she'll be angry with me."
Ronan smiled wryly and shook his head, overall, Frigga was still very good to him.
But Ronan wants to hide Odin's true thoughts from them.
"No, Frigga will understand me."
"We've been together for so many years, and she already knew that I had the idea for today."
Odin smiled, as if he had seen everything through.
If you want to be smart, Frigga must be very smart and can easily read people's hearts.
"Whew"
"Well, it looks like Thor is really going to have to face these disasters alone this time."
"Not even a brother this time."
Ronan shrugged his shoulders, and he decided not to persuade Odin anymore.
Hela may be very powerful, but Ronan is not out of the box against her.
If nothing else, it's still okay to save Thor's life.
Odin turned his head and looked at Ronan with his only remaining eye, as if to explore something.
Ronan laughed.
"Alright old man, I know you want to inquire about Loki's whereabouts."
"The part I can tell you, and the part I know, is that he's not dead."
"He just went to a strange but very familiar place."
"Maybe he'll be back soon."
Ronan understood what Odin meant.
Odin was not angry at all at Ronan for calling him "old man", but smiled.
After all, for so many years, he has always been a high god king.
If others want to get close to him, they need to take into account his identity.
That is, Ronan, at this time, can also let him experience a little warmth in addition to the name of "God King".
"That's good."
"I'm satisfied to know that."
"Ronan, I need you to do me a favor."
Odin smiled.
Whatever he thought, at least Loki was in his heart, his son.
No matter how rebellious he did.
After all, what family doesn't have a rebellious adolescent child?
"Say it, old man, if only I could do it."
Ronan nodded, he could probably guess what it was.
"When the time is right, tell Saul to come here and find me."
"I'll tell him everything."
"And to thank you for your help, I'll keep your little secret for you."
Odin blinked, as if to mean something.
And Ronan understood what he meant.
Odin's "little secret" refers to the Reality Gem that Ronan gave to Asgard.
To be honest, Ronan wondered if Odin would see through the secrets of the Reality Gem.
Now it seems that Odin chose to help Ronan hide it.
So, this is a favor that Ronan owes a long time ago.
"No problem, I'll tell Saul about it at the right time."
"Poor me, I'll have to drink with Thor until dawn when the time comes."
Ronan shook his head and couldn't help but sigh.
It doesn't matter if you drink, but it's too much to stop Thor's physique.
It's too much trouble not to get drunk.
"Huh."
"Alright, for the rest of the time, let me, an old man, look back on my youthful days for myself."
With that, Odin looked at the endless sea in the distance.
In the face of Odin's remarks that were equivalent to sending off guests, Ronan didn't feel that there was any idea of running out and being abandoned.
He stood up and patted the dust off his body.
A golden light descended from the sky.
"Good-bye, old man."
As the golden light consumed Ronan, he also disappeared into the land.
Feeling the sea breeze blowing across his face, a big smile appeared on Odin's face.
"Thor."
"Your ability to make friends is much better than mine."
Because of Odin's disappearance, Asgard is plunged into a brief period of chaos.
But for the sake of Asgard's stability, the news also spread only in a small area and did not cause a lot of confusion.
Thor and the others almost searched the Nine Realms, but they didn't find any trace of Odin.
This result is not unexpected.
If Odin disappeared on his own initiative, then with Odin's ability, if he didn't want to be found by them, then they would definitely not be able to find it.
But if it was Odin who was taken by someone.
It's almost impossible!
There is no such option at all.
If anyone could quietly take their god-king Odin away in Asgard
And what fighting power does Asgard have?
Odin is also a god king, and in the entire Nine Realms, no one is stronger than him.
So, it's simply not possible.
After searching for a while, Thor finally calmed down from his initial anxiety.
He began to think about the cause and effect of the incident.
Especially when he saw Frigga looking at him, it seemed to be a little different from usual.
So, Saul began to think about it in a rare way.
He found his friends and began to discuss the matter together.
Discuss where Odin is going at this point, or why he is doing it.
What he didn't know was that everything he had now was in Friggia's eyes.
Seeing that Thor was slowly growing, a smile appeared on Frigga as well.
But thinking of the idea that Odin had told her, the smile on Frigga quickly faded.
Could it be that the so-called price of growth is really so painful?
Thinking of this, Frigga pursed her lips and turned to leave.
Thor's growth began quietly.
