Luo Ji's appearance was absolutely unexpected because the person Ancient One wanted to find was Odin, and the Reality Gem was in Odin's collection.
Odin knew how terrifying the Infinity Gem was, so he didn't even lock the Reality Gem in his Odin's treasury. Instead, he sealed it in a special place, a dimension that only Odin could enter.
Moreover, what did Luo Ji holding Odin's scepter mean? Did she really obtain the leadership of Asgard? If she obtained the leadership, then what about Odin?
What exactly happened? This was all a little beyond expectations.
"I'm sorry, Ancient One. My father, Odin, is currently facing a small problem, so I may need to deal with the current situation." Luo Ji brought Valkyrie and another confidant of hers, Wolf God Fenrir.
"Wait, what happened to Father?!" Although Thor was very dissatisfied with the marriage Odin arranged for him, he was still very concerned about his father. Therefore, when he heard that Odin had encountered a problem, he immediately became concerned.
Hearing Thor's question, Luo Ji glanced at Ancient One and said, "Ancient One, I want to have a secret conversation with my brother. I hope you can understand. I can explain to you about Odin in a moment."
Ancient One nodded. He waved his hand and an isolation magic circle shrouded Luo Ji and Thor. As Odin's old friend, Ancient One wouldn't eavesdrop on the conversation between his juniors. Ancient One was still a relatively upright person.
Luo Ji glanced at Thor and waved her hand. "There's nothing to worry about. He's just in a coma. Odin's Sleep happens once every 500 years. It's just that the time has come. Our father needs to rest."
"Years of battle have brought him countless scars. If he doesn't enter a dormant state, it won't be good for his body." Luo Ji gave a very simple explanation as to why Odin didn't appear.
"He needs to enter deep hibernation to recover his divine power and heal those terrifying wounds. Thor, this is the first time we've experienced Odin's Sleep, so you don't need to be too nervous." Luo Ji looked as if it wasn't a big deal.
There was no doubt that the female Loki was much smarter than the male Loki. In Thor's story, the male Loki seemed to have lost his mind and used Odin's Sleep to deceive Thor, telling him that Odin was dead.
It was better not to tell such a lie that could be exposed at any time, unless the person who heard it was a complete retard.
"How long does Father need to rest?" Thor asked, feeling much more at ease.
"I don't know. According to Asgard's records, maybe a year. But Father is quite old now, so his recovery speed won't be that fast. Maybe he'll need more time, but at most ten years," Luo Ji whispered into Thor's ear.
"Ten years?! Asgard lost Odin's protection for ten years?! Do you know how dangerous that is?! "Thor's eyes widened.
"That's why Heimdall temporarily became Asgard's guardian. Mother accompanied Father in Odin's palace, and I now have full authority to temporarily govern Asgard on behalf of Odin."
Luo Ji's words made Thor reveal a meaningful smile. "Is this a reward for you?"
"If you hadn't caused trouble in Asgard last time, argued with Odin on the viewing platform, and finally lost Asgard's crown, you would have been the acting king of Asgard by now. I wouldn't have had the chance to sit in this position." Luo Ji patted Thor's shoulder.
"I think you should understand what Father wanted to do last time. He knew that he was going to fall into hibernation and needed someone to temporarily take charge of Asgard. You raised the hammer of Thor. Originally, you deserved all this, but you refused. On the day of my victory …" Luo Ji looked at Thor and sighed in his ear.
"Was it all worth it?"
Thor smiled. "It was worth it! My sister, because that was the day of your victory! The glory of a king cannot be shared. There are some things that you are more suitable than me. Just like now, Odin chose you instead of me. "
Luo Ji's lips moved, but she did not say anything.
In the end, she just handed the Spear of Eternity, Gungnir, to Thor.
"What are you doing? This is Odin's keepsake, the symbol of Asgard's power! "Thor held the Spear of Eternity in confusion.
"It's just insurance. Thor, Thor, I need you to become another guardian of Asgard. During the days when Odin is asleep, you need to fulfill your duties as Odin's eldest son. I think you know how to use the Spear of Eternity. When necessary, use it."
Luo Ji looked at Thor, a smile hanging at the corner of her mouth.
But Thor had a bad feeling. "What do you mean by that?"
"Nothing, it's just insurance, a double insurance outside of Heimdallr." After saying this, Luo Ji did not give Thor a chance to continue asking. She said, "We don't have time to discuss this now. Let's solve the problem in front of us first."
"Right, what is this?!" Thor's attention was diverted by Luo Ji.
"The Gem of Reality, one of the Infinity Stones. Six Infinity Stones, created at the beginning of the universe. Just like the first phoenix, it is the birth and death of the universe." Luo Ji gestured to Ancient One to remove the magic circle.
But Thor stopped Luo Ji. "One last question. What does Odin think about my marriage? Why did he suddenly arrange a marriage for me? And it's Sif. "
Luo Ji smiled at Thor. "What's wrong with that? I think Sif and you are a good match! She can take good care of you. She will be the best wife in your life in the future. "
"Wait! Could it be you?! " Thor suddenly understood something, but before he could finish his question, Ancient One had already removed the magic circle. It was not good for him to ask these questions in front of others, so he could only keep it in his heart and ask Luo Ji when he had time.
Li Jie walked to Thor's side and looked at the Gungnir in Thor's hand with an inquiring look. Thor smiled bitterly. He was a little confused now.
On the other side, Luo Ji and Ancient One were already discussing the energy leak of the Gem of Reality.
"I think it's because Father fell into Odin's Rest, so his control over the Gem became lax. That's why this incident happened. I will bring the Gem back to Asgard and reseal it, but I need your help." Ancient One did not refuse Luo Ji's request.
Because the Gem of Reality was originally one of Odin's spoils of war, Ancient One did not mind helping her out. Moreover, the appearance of the Gem of Reality on Earth was also a dangerous thing.
"There's a problem, Luo Ji." Li Jie had been listening to the conversation between Luo Ji and Ancient One, so he had to remind them. "The problem now is that two of my friends are trapped in this special dimension. Before you seal the dimension and take away the gem, you must get them out."
Luo Ji suddenly turned around and stared at Li Jie. "You mean two people went in?!" This was not within Luo Ji's plan!
… …
In the dimension where the Gem of Reality was stored, Peter Parker and Gwen were moving towards the glowing cube. In the dark, people would instinctively want to get closer to a place with light.
Biologically speaking, insects have phototaxis, just like bees can't fly out of a glass bottle facing the sun. Humans always laughed at the stupidity of insects, saying that they can't turn around.
But in fact, humans were often similar to insects. Some habits will not change just because you have a higher IQ.
Peter Parker originally wanted to persuade Gwen to stay where she was, but as he got closer and closer to the glowing cube, he became more and more attracted to it.
It was like a bug trap that used light to catch flying insects at night. This glowing cube exuded a special luster that made people unable to get away from it. The closer they got, the more they wanted to get closer to it.
When the little spider and Gwen stood in front of the cube, there seemed to be a voice in their minds calling them, wanting them to touch this strange cube.
Peter wanted to resist, but his hands did not listen to him. Gwen, on the other hand, did not even have the ability to resist. Peter's spider senses kept sending him dangerous signals, which made Peter's body tremble.
Just before he touched the cube, Peter used his great willpower to retract his hand, but Gwen's hand had already touched it.
