Chapter 314: Am I Ned Hogg?
Asgard, Odin's Golden Palace.
Facing the serious gaze of God Odin, Lu Mingfei took three steps back.
"God Odin, I don't quite understand why you want me to be the Prince of Asgard, I am not an Asgardian at all." Lu Mingfei scratched his head.
Although I don't know why there is such a good thing that seems to be a pie falling from the sky, Lu Mingfei knows a truth - every piece of pie that falls from the sky may secretly be filled with strawberry mapo tofu.
"Asgard does not discriminate against foreigners, and my adopted son, Loki, is the child of the King of the Frost Giants." Odin Road.
"King of the Frost Giants? When I was living in Asgard, I heard from others that Laufey, the King of the Frost Giants, was dead. Lu Mingfei was a little puzzled.
"Hmm...... It was when Thor was exiled to Earth by me that Loki killed Laufey. Odin said.
Lu Mingfei: ......
Skimming over this topic very wisely, Lu Mingfei turned to ask: "But I still don't understand, the prince of Asgard is already a very high title, and the biggest help I have made for Asgard is to prevent Loki from destroying Jotunheim with the rainbow bridge, and in the end, it is the ancient mage who finally solves the problem, and with this contribution alone, I should not be qualified to be crowned prince." β
Moreover, the time he helped stop Loki, God Odin had already returned the favor with a sword of silver mistletoe made by the dwarven king before and after.
Odin was silent for a few seconds: "In a way, the reason why I want you to become the Prince of Asgard is not only because you have helped Asgard, but more importantly, you have a close relationship with Asgard. β
Close relationship? Does it refer to the Winter of Fimbull and the Sword of Silver Mistletoe?
Lu Mingfei's heart became more and more bottomless - after all, if he really wanted to say it, he had a close relationship with Asgard, he was obviously closely related to Ragnarok.
In addition to Fimbul's Winter and the Sword of Silver Mistletoe, he also has a knockoff version of the Sword of Surtr, the "Branch of Destruction".
Further, he is a half-breed in his own world, and the origin of the half-blood's bloodline is the Black King Niederhogg, so he can also be regarded as a "descendant of Niedhug".
Ragnarok already had almost half of its elements concentrated on him alone.
It seems that he only needs to gather the demon wolf Fenrir, the earthly python JΓΆrmungad, and the goddess of death Hela, and he will be able to gather Ragnarok.
Thinking of this, Lu Mingfei couldn't help but shrink his neck honestly.
Faced with Lu Mingfei's silence, Odin hesitated for a moment and explained: "Actually, in addition to Loki and Thor, I also have a child. Her name is Hela. β
Lu Mingfei had a wooden face, not daring to have a little expression.
"She's my earliest child, but you've probably never heard her name in Asgard, have you?" Odin said, "Because she was sealed by me, and her name is the taboo of Asgard." β
Am I supposed to go? I don't think I'm supposed to be standing here. Lu Ming is not in the heart.
"Don't you wonder why she was sealed by me?" Odin looked at Lu Mingfei and asked.
"Because she did the same thing as Loki?" Lu Mingfei blurted out.
"Huh?" Odin was stunned for a moment before following Lu Mingfei's brain circuit, "No, Hela didn't betray me, and even in a way, I betrayed her." β
"She was my first child, who helped me fight in the Nine Realms when I was younger, the most powerful and trusted general under my command, and was once the executioner of Asgard and the previous master of Thor's hammer." Odin Road.
"Mjolnir? Wasn't that made for Thor? Lu Ming was puzzled, "Why Hella is its former owner." β
"At that time, Thor had not yet been born, and the Mjolnir was built for him in advance through prophecy, and before Thor was born, it was temporarily given to Hela to use." Odin Road.
"That's your partiality," Lu Mingfei complained, "Create an artifact for your unborn son through prophecy, and then make do with your daughter who is conscientiously leading the battle, if you don't bring such a patriarchal person, no wonder your daughter is unhappy." β
"Hela doesn't need to, she's not the same as Thor," Odin shook his head, "She's a genius in combat, she awakened her true divine power at a very young age, so she doesn't need to use an exclusive artifact to channel her divine power like Thor, Thor's hammer is just a weapon for her." β
"Then why is she ......" Lu Mingfei was curious.
"The fault of this matter is mine," Odin shook his head, "Although I conquered the Nine Realms when I was young, I also caused too much killing and destruction in the process, and after the war, I woke up from a false sense of honor and ambition, reflected on what I had done, and resolved to be a benevolent monarch." β
"But although I woke up, Hela was instilled with ambition and belligerence from a young age, and resolutely opposed the peaceful rule I wanted, and finally our father and daughter fell out to the point of fighting each other." Odin sighed.
"She took a third of Asgard's legions and space warships, officially declared war with Asgard, asked me to abdicate and make her queen, I sent the Valkyrie Legion to conquer Hela but was almost wiped out by her, Asgard's fleet also suffered heavy losses because of the war with her, and she was eventually deprived of her divine power by me and imprisoned."
"I see," Lu Mingfei said suddenly, "So what Saul told me before that 'Asgard's spaceships are all in the museum' is not entirely that Asgard voluntarily gave up the spaceship and spaceship, but that in that war, most of Asgard's spaceships and spaceships died together." β
"That's right, after that, I was determined to rule mercifully, and instead of restoring the loss-stricken Asgardian fleet, I disbanded it, and since then Asgard has only an ordinary army." Odin Road.
"By the way, can I be curious to ask, where did you keep such a dangerous and powerful character as Hela, insurance?" Lu Mingfei asked casually.
"On Earth." Odin Road.
Lu Mingfei: ......
What the hell am I ......
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't beat him, Lu Mingfei suspected that he had already started to explode foul language.
It's okay to exile Thor to Earth, and although this thing is a little stupid, it's not a bad person. But exile to Earth a dangerous war maniac who nearly died with Asgard, and who was personally recognized by Odin......
Who is the earth recruiting and who is messing with whom?
But thinking about it carefully, Lu Mingfei felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with this penal colony, after all, at that time, the earth was still nominally one of the vassal states of Asgard, and Odin did have the right to do so, and the person who guarded the earth was the Supreme Mage Ancient One, and Hela couldn't do anything.
But now the Supreme Mage is him!
"God Odin, your exile...... Is it insured? Lu Mingfei asked with the corners of his mouth twitching.
"Insurance, Hela has been deprived of her divine powers by me and cannot do much damage," Odin said, "at least until I die, her seal will not be broken." β
"Until you die...... Then if, I mean if, one day you really ......" Lu Mingfei didn't continue, but the meaning was already obvious.
"The seal is maintained with my divine power, and when I die, the seal will disappear." Odin Road.
"That'...... Why don't you get Hela back to Asgard, I don't think the earth is actually very safe as a place of exile, you see, things on the earth have been one after another recently, and the earthlings themselves are not at peace, and there is a possibility that they will be invaded by aliens again, in case your daughter and your adopted son Loki have reached a consensus with the forces of other planets......"
"I can't let her go back to Asgard, her divine powers allow her to be one with Asgard, where she will have endless power, and my seal on her will be broken." Odin Road.
"What about moving her to another planet?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"It's hard, too." Odin shook his head.
"Why?" Lu Ming was puzzled.
"Because I can't find her anymore." Odin's face was sincere.
Lu Mingfei: ......
"She lurked on Earth, waiting for my death or decline, and once I died or weakened enough to maintain the seal, she would immediately return to Asgard and take my place to reign here, restarting the war that swept through the Nine Realms, and even the entire universe." Odin Road.
Speaking of this, Lu Mingfei's mind seemed to suddenly be electrified, and he reacted suddenly: "Wait! You made me a prince, it wasn't because of Hela! β
Odin didn't speak, but looked at Lu Mingfei quietly.
"You want me to get rid of Hela after her seal disappears?" Lu Mingfei pointed to his nose.
Odin nodded slowly.
"If I refuse, will Hela declare war on Earth after breaking the seal?" The corners of Lu Mingfei's mouth twitched.
"Her goal is the entire universe, and of course the Earth is also included." Odin Road.
Lu Mingfei: ......
"Then I'll do it!" Lu Mingfei gritted his teeth, "Isn't it Hela?" her! β
"You don't think about it anymore? Hela's strength is not much worse than mine, and even if Thor awakens her divine powers, she will not be her opponent. Odin said.
"What else are you thinking about," Lu Mingfei cried with a sad face, "I want to surrender, but listening to you, this aunt doesn't look like she will treat the captives preferentially." β
If Hela will attack the earth, then he will have to be the enemy of Hela, since the pros and cons must be fought, the title of prince should not be in vain.
"Then I'll thank you for Asgard and Thor, but you don't have to worry too much, my body can last a few more years." Odin Road.
Is there only a few years left? Can I not be worried? Lu Mingfei's cheeks twitched.
"In addition to Hela, Asgard abandoned its army after the Civil War, and with my decline, there are other forces around me that are ready to move," Odin said, "After my death, Asgard is expected to have some revenge from old rivals, such as Jotunheim, Warnerheim, the Dark Elves, Muspelheim, ......."
"You have a lot of old opponents." Lu Mingfei covered his face.
"When the time comes, I will ask Your Excellency the Prince to bother more." Odin Road.
"Am I going to get on the thief ship......" Lu Mingfei pulled the corners of his mouth, but it didn't matter, if there were more lice, it would not be itchy or if there were more debts, anyway, it must be Thor who was in front.
"However, the prince's position is very important after all, although you are a famous warrior of Asgard and have been favored by Asgard, but there will still be a lot of controversy if you make a rash announcement, so we need some time to prepare for it," Odin said, "I am afraid that your coronation will be postponed for a while." β
"It doesn't matter if it's a pomp." Lu Mingfei shook his head.
"But as a sign of sincerity, I have asked the Dwarven King to prepare the Prince's scepter and crown for you in advance." Odin said the second half of the sentence leisurely.
Lu Mingfei: ......
So you've been scheming on me for a long time, right?
"By the way, about the title of the Prince...... What do you think of 'Niederhogg'? Odin asked.
Lu Mingfei: ......
What the hell is this, God Odin, do you still think I don't have enough elements about Ragnarok?
Lu Mingfei tugged at the corners of his mouth - so, now, I am a staunch secret scientist, a staunch dragon slayer, and a great defender of the human defense, with the mission of burying dragons, and the ultimate goal is to kill the hybrid of the Black King Nidhogg, and in another world, become the "Prince of Nidhogg".
Luckily, the headmaster wouldn't have known that I was Nidhogg, otherwise he would have chased me down. Lu Ming is not in the heart.
β¦β¦
Leaving the Golden Palace, Lu Mingfei walked on the road and fell into deep thought.
Hela's affairs are not in a hurry for the time being, and he is a little clueless just because of what God Odin said to help Thor stimulate his potential.
Although he also asked God Odin some information about the awakening of divine powers, God Odin didn't have a very good idea, otherwise he wouldn't have asked him for help.
According to the information he has so far, Asgard's divine power is linked to willpower to a certain extent, and it is said that if the person who is sleeping with divine power can be stimulated by a strong enough psychic stimulation to stimulate a stronger will, it is possible to awaken the divine power.
But how do you stimulate Thor?
He didn't wake up when he heard Loki say that his own father was dead.
Wait a minute...... Loki? Lu Mingfei touched his chin and thought about it.
β¦β¦
Deep in Asgard's cell, in Loki's room.
As a highly developed alien civilization, Asgard's cell environment is good, and Loki is still a prince after all, and the adopted prince is also a prince, so he will not live too badly.
Of course, it is impossible to say how comfortable it is, after all, it is the management of criminals, and criminals cannot be allowed to enjoy it.
With the certificate from Odin, Lu Mingfei walked into Loki's cell unimpeded.
At this moment, Loki was lying on a stone chair covered with animal skins, his eyes closed, as if he was taking a nap.
"Hi, Loki." Lu Mingfei showed a kind expression as much as possible and greeted Loki.
"Who bothered me......" Loki opened his eyes in a daze, facing a face that was clearly handsome, but in his eyes it was even more hideous and ugly than that of a Zetari.
"Ahββ!!!h Loki jumped up from the stone chair and hid behind it, "Guard! Guardsman! Come on! Someone is trying to hurt me! Come on! β
Lu Mingfei: ......
"No, are you?" Lu Mingfei was speechless, "It's obvious that you invaded the earth, what kind of trouble are you going to make now by acting like a victim?" I don't know, I thought I had done something to you. β
Loki looked at Lu Mingfei in horror and grief.
You speak as if you didn't treat me well!
The tragic experience of being "accidentally" affected by Lu Mingfei on the mothership of the Zetarians is still vivid, and now Loki sees Lu Mingfei's legs shaking more than seeing Hulk.
"Don't be afraid, I have no ill intentions," Lu Mingfei said, "I came to you because I have something important. β
"What do you want to do! I've turned to the light, I'm still in Asgard prison, are you going to beat the prisoner in the prison? Loki shouted and asked, if his voice didn't tremble when he spoke, but there was a bit of momentum.
"You misunderstood," Lu Mingfei smiled slightly, "Actually, I have something to ask you for help." β
"What makes you think I'm going to help you?" When Loki heard that Lu Mingfei had come to him for help, he suddenly felt a little more confident, although he hadn't come out of the stone chair yet, at least he didn't tremble.
"Not to mention that I saved your life, you owe me a life-saving grace," Lu Mingfei said, "Even if you don't owe me anything, you will want to help with this favor." β
"Why?" Loki asked rhetorically.
"Because I want you to help me beat Saul." Lu Mingfei smiled sadly.
"Huh?" Each of Loki's facial features made a look of surprise.
"It's a long story, in short, Thor, this guy has no one in his eyes and is arrogant, after joining the Avengers alliance we formed, he has been calling himself the 'strongest Avenger' and 'Avengers leader' all day long, but his brain is not good, he does things all day long, and he has done stupid things to recharge the enemy, I can't stand him anymore."
"So......" Lu Mingfei sneered, "I'm going to teach him a hard lesson!" Although I won't hurt my comrade-in-arms, I must make him unlucky once! β
Loki's eyes lit up.
"I know you hate Thor too, do you want to help me?" Lu Mingfei asked.
After hesitating for half a second, Loki nodded hesitantly: "Say it in advance, I'm not here to help you, it's just that I also hate Thor." β
Lu Mingfei nodded solemnly on the surface, and silently snapped his fingers in his heart - the plan was clear.
