Chapter 136: Jane, who loves Gu Fan, and the jealous Thor.
Jane saw Gu Fan arrive and appeared exceptionally excited, her face flushing red, little stars shining in her eyes as she kept her gaze fixed on Gu Fan's handsome face and strong physique!
Before Jane could even finish speaking, as if feeling he was in the way, she immediately pushed aside the thick arm Thor was using to hold her.
Then she stepped forward a few paces. Instantly, her face turned bright red, full of infatuation, the corners of her mouth curling up wildly, so happy that it felt like her head was about to steam...
When Jane first met Gu Fan, she just thought he was very handsome, had many Superpowers, and was very powerful!
But at that time, there were many people with Superpowers, and then everyone started a constant chaotic battle. As a long-time scientist, Dr. Jane, she was shocked by Thor's confusion, Asgard, magic, the WorldTree, and so on. Her mind was completely blank...
Plus, she didn't have any concrete understanding of these Superhumans and gods. Now, after numerous events, especially the battle against the Chitauri in New York.
Jane had completely become a fan of that fearless Superhero who held a nuclear bomb and saved the World—black superman, Gu Fan!
Gu Fan looked at the pleasantly surprised Jane, then looked at Thor, who was putting on a sour face as if he were jealous and had turned away with a long face. He couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.
"Sure! Of course, no problem. Thank you for your support!" Gu Fan casually tossed the hammer into Thor's arms and said to Jane with a smile.
Jane's eyes lit up instantly, and she jumped for joy!
"Oh, right, a pen, paper, where are they? I, I remember I had them, where did I put them?" Jane immediately began rummaging around in a panic.
Later, it was only after Thor pointed it out that Jane realized there was a pen clipped to the pocket on her shirt. After handing it to Gu Fan, she realized there was no paper...
Jane looked at Gu Fan's faint smile. In a moment of desperation, she grabbed Thor's red cape, almost pulling Thor—who was holding the hammer with an unhappy expression—to the ground...
While Thor's bearded face showed shock and trembling, Jane held the cape with both hands, letting Gu Fan sign it directly...
Thor's mouth twitched wildly, but he didn't dare refuse such a fierce Jane; after all, she had just given him two big slaps to confirm something...
Tall and mighty, yet looking helpless and weak, Thor could only look at Gu Fan with a pitiful expression, shaking his head continuously, begging and hoping that Gu Fan would absolutely not mess with his beloved cape again...
Jane's fierce behavior stunned even Gu Fan...
However, looking at the Iron Simpleton Thor before him, who always acted without thinking and was all muscle, Gu Fan suddenly found it particularly funny.
So, he happily picked up the marker and signed his big name on the red cape that Jane was holding with both hands.
Watching Thor's abstract expression—eyes red, face distorted with rage, yet not daring to move—Gu Fan felt secretly satisfied and added a line: "To my good friend, Jane Foster, wishing you good health, happiness, and joy, black superman, Gu Fan."
Thor looked at the cape, which originally only had two characters, now covered in several lines...
In that instant, Thor's face turned ashen, and the whole god felt terrible, as if his thousands of years of happy divine life had been shattered. Now he was completely unhappy, looking like life was meaningless...
Meanwhile, Jane was holding the cape signed by Gu Fanwith both hands, jumping up and down with super excitement, shouting at high volume: "Ah! This is so great! Thank you, thank you! I actually got it! This feels like a dream! Hahaha!"
Ignoring Thor on the side, Jane stepped forward and gave Gu Fan a big hug.
Gu Fan naturally didn't feel anything; after all, he didn't like Jane, and he did think Thor and Jane were a good match. However, he still smiled and politely patted Jane's back.
Thor felt like he was starting to fade at this moment, turning from color to gray...
His strong body seemed to shrivel up in an instant...
After hugging Gu Fan, Jane immediately took the signed cape to Thor and said: "darling, can you give me this cape as a gift?"
Thor had no choice but to grit his teeth tightly and squeeze out the words from between his teeth: "Fine, it's yours!"
Jane was even happier, hugged Thor, and kissed him hard!
At this moment, Thor seemed to recover instantly, and he suddenly regained his vitality... The whole person seemed to turn back into color in an instant.
"Hahaha, alright, enough joking. Thor, you suddenly came to Earth, is there some trouble?" Gu Fan finally couldn't help it and said with a laugh, looking at Thor, who was a master of quick face-changing.
"Hmm, yes, that's right. Heimdall discovered that the cosmic spectacle that happens once every few thousand years, the Convergence, is about to arrive. At that time, the barriers of the Nine Realms will be broken, and they might even influence each other. And I discovered that Jane had disappeared, so I was worried she might be in trouble, and rushed over." Thor looked at Gu Fan with a serious expression, then kept looking at Jane, smiling brightly and somewhat obsequiously.
But Jane was still holding Gu Fan's signed cape, looking infatuated, tilting her head excitedly, and staring fixedly at Gu Fan...
Thor looked at Jane helplessly, then turned his head to glare fiercely at Gu Fan, looking like an unfortunate kid.
Gu Fan finally held it in, withdrew his smile, fearing he might over-stimulate this Iron Simpleton...
"The Convergence? Is there any problem with Jane now?" Gu Fan deliberately changed the subject and asked.
Just then, several Police cars drove over.
The Police got out of the car. Their originally aggressive attitude turned excited and amiable the moment they saw Gu Fan and Thor.
But they still smiled as they stepped forward and said to the group: "Hello everyone, this is private property, please leave quickly. By the way, black superman, can you give us an autograph? We are all your fans!"
Gu Fan indeed had many fans, and the coverage was extremely wide.
"Okay, we'll leave right away." Gu Fan said with a smile, walking over to help them sign.
But seeing Gu Fan leave, Jane's emotions suddenly became agitated and extremely unstable! Then, a massive dark red power erupted from Jane's body.
This caused everything around to scatter, and even Thor, holding his hammer, took a few steps back.
And the few Police officers, thanks to Gu Fan's casual wave blocking the surging energy, were not blown away.
However, the cars nearby were overturned by this massive energy...
After the energy disappeared, Jane lay on the ground.
Thor immediately rushed over, his eyes urgent, but he had no way to help.
He immediately raised his hammer, intending to call Heimdall to take Jane back to Asgard, hoping to get help from his father and Mother.
"Thor, don't worry yet. Take her to Tony's place and see; maybe his machines can find a solution." Gu Fanimmediately stepped forward and said.
Chapter 137: Everyone Travels to Asgard Together
"Stark? Would he have a way to help?" Thor appeared dazed, his face full of urgency and worry.
"Let's go check. If that doesn't work, we'll go to Asgardtogether!" Gu Fan nodded seriously.
Thor looked at Jane in his arms with a worried expression.
Although Jane didn't know what was happening to her, she trusted Gu Fan, so she nodded immediately.
Then the three of them took to the sky and flew rapidly toward Stark Tower.
Gu Fan and Thor entered the living room and found Tonyand the others there, leisurely drinking coffee and having afternoon tea...
"Hurry and help, Stark, I need those machines of yours!" Thor, holding Jane in a bridal carry, shouted loudly while striding toward Tony.
Tony was startled by the sudden thunderous roar, his hand shook, and coffee spilled onto his crotch...
Rhodes, who had the quickest mouth, immediately laughed and said, "Tony, did you wet your pants? Hahaha..."
Tony wore a look of utter despair and quipped, "Brother, these are pants I just changed into..."
Rhodes, Captain America, and the others couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Even Pepper, Natasha, and the other women were covering their mouths and giggling...
Seeing Thor's eyes were red and he was very anxious, Gu Fan immediately stepped forward and said, "Thor, come with me, we'll go to the lab first. Tony, hurry and clean yourself up, then come over immediately to save her!"
Thor, watching Tony not follow but instead run away immediately, shouted again, "Tony, where are you going?"
"I'm going to change my pants..." Tony shouted back helplessly, then waddled away.
Gu Fan quickly brought Thor to the lab, placed Jane on the diagnostic table, and immediately began to skillfully operate and examine her.
Before long, Tony and the others followed. Everyone wanted to be a spectator, curious about what exactly happened that could make Thor so anxious.
"What's going on? Is the house on fire! Why so urgent? By the way, Thor, you owe me a new pair of pants." Tonyquipped while looking at the data displayed on the machine.
Thor originally wanted to say something, but noticed that Gu Fan and Tony had both dropped their smiles and were looking at the screen on the machine in disbelief.
"W-what's wrong? How is Jane?" Thor was instantly tongue-tied, asking with a stutter and a worried face.
"My god... This, there is a massive amount of energy inside her body protecting her, but this energy doesn't belong to her; it seems more like it's temporarily residing there. The energy levels are too vast; over time, it might have a negative effect on the human body!" Tony couldn't help but say, then continued to study the data in a daze.
"Do you have a way to solve the problem?" Thorimmediately stepped forward a few paces and asked urgently.
"No way, this energy is too strange. I don't have any solutions in the short term. Unless you give me a large amount of time to conduct research! But don't worry, currently, that energy is not harming your little girlfriend." Tony studied the data seriously, nodding continuously.
Thor gritted his teeth, immediately stepped forward to help Jane up, and was about to head out.
"Wait, I'll go with you to Asgard; maybe I can be of some help." Gu Fan immediately stepped forward and said to Thor.
Thor nodded, just about to say something.
Tony immediately shouted, "Take us along too, we can help!"
And Natasha, the other women, as well as Rhodes and Captain America, were all nodding frantically, looking curious and well-behaved.
Seeing that everyone was like curious babies, all wanting to go see what the legendary divine realm of Asgardlooked like, Gu Fan helplessly said, "Fine, bring them along. This time, it should be of help to your Asgard."
Gu Fan naturally had to go. Firstly, His Majesty the All-Father still owed him a divine artifact, and he needed to secure that.
Secondly, in the movie, the tragic death of Queen Friggawas a regret, and it was the greatest regret and pain in Thor's heart.
Gu Fan also wanted to help this pitiful and ill-fated Thor. After all, Thor's subsequent experiences were all painful, one after another! Nothing good. It's no wonder he fell into becoming a big fat guy...
Gu Fan hoped to help Thor and help Asgard. He hoped that these beautiful things would not fade away, and hoped that Thor would still have a loving Mother.
Thor hesitated for a moment but nodded. Although he didn't know how everyone could help him and Asgard as Gu Fan said, he trusted Gu Fan in his heart.
Everyone immediately gathered together, colorful light shone, and in an instant, everyone disappeared...
In an instant, everyone appeared beside Heimdall.
Thor didn't exchange any pleasantries; he held Jane and flew off.
Gu Fan didn't take Natasha and the other women; instead, he briefly explained the situation to Heimdall and quickly followed.
Gu Fan had stayed here for a long time and had a very good relationship with the people of Asgard. He had even often sparred and trained with Heimdall. Since he often saw the beautiful scenery of this divine realm, it was naturally not so novel to him anymore.
The others couldn't fly and could only look on with envy, jealousy, and hatred!
However, under the polite guidance of Heimdall, they admired the beautiful scenery of Asgard with clicks of wonder while moving in the direction of Thor and Gu Fan.
Thor held Jane and rushed toward the hall, naturally attracting the attention of His Majesty the All-Father and the Queen and others.
Odin just wanted to reprimand Thor when he noticed Gu Fan following behind. His stern face immediately put on a kind smile.
"How did Gu Fan come! It's been a long time since you were here. Did something happen?" His Majesty the All-Father smiled, curiously looking Gu Fan up and down.
Queen Frigga didn't even pay attention to her beloved son, coming directly over to pat Gu Fan and ask, "Why are you only just back? Don't you miss us? You child... why don't you come over to eat with us?"
When Gu Fan lived and trained in Asgard in the past, Queen Frigga took special care of Gu Fan's life and even personally made quite a bit of food and clothes for him.
His Majesty the All-Father and Queen Frigga both liked Gu Fan very much. They both felt that Gu Fan was not only powerful and capable of many things, but could also control Lightning Power and Mjolnir!
And although he was only in his early twenties, he was much more mature and steady than the Iron Simpleton, their beloved son whom they had raised for thousands of years!
The two of them had once even wanted to adopt Gu Fan as their foster son! Queen Frigga even confirmed with the All-Father Odin multiple times whether Gu Fan was really his illegitimate son? If he was, that would be even better!
His Majesty the All-Father could only helplessly deny it.
This made Queen Frigga and His Majesty the All-Fatherboth unable to help but feel helpless and regretful...
Both of them felt that if Gu Fan were their child, then the throne of Asgard would have nothing to do with Thor, and he could go stay wherever it was cool. The two of them wouldn't have had to deal with the headache for thousands of years...
Gu Fan wore an awkward look, feeling a bit embarrassed to fleece these wealthy hosts again...
"I've been a bit busy lately, can't help it, but I'll definitely come visit often when I have time in the future. By the way, Your Majesty the All-Father, Queen, this is Jane. She seems to have some problems; could I trouble you to take a look?" Gu Fan replied with a smile.
"Yeah, yeah! Father, Mother! Something happened to Jane! Please help take a look!" Thor immediately roared! Afraid that his parents wouldn't hear his voice.
His Majesty the All-Father and Queen Frigga only then looked at their Iron Simpleton of a son, but the kind smile they had originally worn while looking at Gu Fan quickly vanished, replaced by a look of helplessness and anger.
Thor still didn't know what he had done wrong, just urging them continuously.
His Majesty the All-Father and Queen Frigga helplessly exchanged a glance and had to step forward to begin examining Jane.
Gradually, His Majesty the All-Father's expression grew heavy, and his face became increasingly serious: "Thor, where did you bring her from?"
Chapter 138: Collecting Infinity Stones, walking Thanos's path, leaving him no path to take!
"Earth, Jane suddenly disappeared, and Heimdall couldn't see her! I was worried about her, so I went over and brought her back. We discovered that Jane has a strange power inside her body. What is going on? Father, can you save her?" Thor said nervously, rattling off a string of words like a machine gun.
All-Father Odin looked at Thor, then at Gu Fan, and dismissed the many attendants surrounding him.
With a wave of his large hand, a golden energy formed a complex rune in All-Father Odin's hand, drawing out the vast energy within Jane's body.
Instantly, a large amount of dark energy surged out from Jane's body, constantly resisting the golden energy emitted by the All-Father.
All-Father Odin's expression changed drastically. He turned to look at Queen Frigga with a solemn face. The Queen also showed a shocked expression, frowned tightly, and nodded.
Thor, who had been watching All-Father Odin take action, even managing to draw out the strange black-red energy from Jane's body, had a look of pleasant surprise on his face!
However, upon noticing the solemn expressions of his father and the Queen, and seeing his father withdraw his energy, his joy faded.
Without the guidance of the energy rune, the black-red energy floating in front of Jane slowly returned to her body.
Jane didn't feel anything strange; she just blinked her big eyes, looking at everything around her in confusion. She also looked nervously at Thor's parents—they were figures from myths and legends: All-Father Odin and QueenFrigga.
"The vast energy inside Jane is the Aether Particle, a treasure that existed before the Universe itself! The Dark Elf King Malekith once tried to control the Aether Particleto plunge the Nine Realms into darkness. He was defeated and suppressed by my father, and the Aether Particle was also suppressed on Earth." All-Father Odin sighed heavily.
With a nostalgic look, he channeled his divine power, forming shocking images before them, slowly explaining the story to Thor and Gu Fan.
"Then can you and Mother save Jane? Is there a way to take the Aether Particle out of her body?" Thor knew this trouble wouldn't be easy to solve, but he still frowned tightly and asked urgently.
"We don't have a good way; forcibly extracting it would certainly harm Jane's body. We haven't studied the Aether Particle much. The Dark Elves have possessed it for a longer time and have studied it more deeply!" All-Father Odin replied seriously.
Seeing Thor in pain and full of anxiety, Queen Friggastepped forward, patted his arm, and gently comforted him: "Don't worry, there is no problem for the time being. We will try our best to study it. Let her stay here peacefully for now."
Thor frowned helplessly, but having no other choice, he could only nod.
However, none of them noticed that Gu Fan, standing beside them, had eyes filled with excitement and possessiveness!
His black pupils, like a dark abyss, were staring fixedly at the dark red energy that was slowly returning to Jane's body.
"The Aether Particle, the Reality Stone! After dealing with those crappy Dark Elves! You will be mine! No one can stop me! Hehehe..." Gu Fan swallowed excitedly.
That's right, this Reality Stone was the ultimate prize and final goal of Gu Fan's current mission!
Gu Fan also planned to collect the Infinity Stones! And he wanted to start early! This is called: walking Thanos's path, leaving him no path to take!
Moreover, Gu Fan had thought about it carefully for a long time. Many of his things relied on the system's help, and his backup plans shouldn't just be the system...
So, in Gu Fan's plan, besides working hard to study various types of magic to become stronger, he also needed to make more friends and strive to cultivate his teammates to have powerful strength.
Then, there was Gu Fan's plan to collect the various Infinity Stones himself!
After all, every Infinity Stone possesses endless, powerful energy!
Regardless of whether he could collect them all, even if he could only possess one! His strength would always have a huge leap!
Although the system store sells Infinity Stones! But the price is ridiculously expensive! That long string of zeros made Gu Fan's head buzz!
There was no other way; he had to spend his points where they mattered most, so for these Infinity Stones, he would rather snatch them himself! No more relying on the system.
Of course, if he could collect them all, it would be a huge profit!
Gu Fan felt that he could also become a'snap' guy! What Purple Sweet Potato Spirit? Other hidden big shots? Get out of the way! He was the real big brother!
However, his snap wouldn't be to destroy half the life in the Universe, but to satisfy his own various wishes.
As for what those wishes were? Only Gu Fan, drooling and smirking lewdly at that moment, would know...
"Earth is indeed the most special existence. Several of the six stones were originally on Earth, or within Asgard of the Nine Realms, and the others will appear soon! They haven't been collected for countless years, but as if it were all arranged, they are suddenly all here!" Gu Fan frowned and began to think deeply.
"Sigh, I don't know which guy wrote this script; it's really too trashy..."
Gu Fan's eyes narrowed. He couldn't help but turn on his X-ray Vision to look deep into the dungeon far behind the palace wall. "Hmm? Could it be the script written by that funny idiot, the kidney-stabber, the self-proclaimed greatest mage of the Nine Realms, the God of Stories?"
"Or perhaps some big shot or faction in the Marvel Universe? Hiding in the back and secretly manipulating everything?"
"Could it even be the creator god of the Marvel Universe, OAA?" Gu Fan's mouth twitched. The more he thought, the more afraid he became.
After all, powerful enemies are not scary; it is the unknown enemies and the fear that are truly terrifying!
"Sigh! I always feel like there are old schemers everywhere. These mobs all want to harm me! Damn it!"
"Sigh, it's too hard for me... The hidden big shots are all pulling the strings in the back, while a bunch of minions come out to fight and kill! When can I stop having to do it myself and be able to blow a whole crowd away with just a fart... Sigh... It's really exhausting. They are all, damn it, a bunch of old schemers." Gu Fan curled his lips, looking helpless.
At this moment, Heimdall arrived late with the others.
Everyone looked around, constantly exclaiming, all shocked by the picturesque scenery of the Asgardian divine realm.
Rhodes and Captain America were open-mouthed, looking dumbfounded the whole time.
And Tony, who was always flamboyant, seeing the magnificent and imposing palace of the All-Father, turned red in the face with envy!
He couldn't wait to go back immediately and blow up his proud Stark Tower!
He wanted to immediately build a palace just as powerful, luxurious, and meaningful! Only then would it match his temperament!
Natasha and the two other women had expressions of surprise as they came to Gu Fan's side. They kept excitedly telling Gu Fan about the beautiful scenery and the shock they felt along the way.
All-Father Odin and Queen Frigga looked at the three women beside Gu Fan with surprise, their eyes narrowing, and they couldn't help but look at each other...
Chapter 139: The Breaker of the Deadlock, Preventing Ragnarok.
Before All-Father Odin could say anything.
Heimdall immediately stepped forward, bowed, and said respectfully: "His Majesty the All-Father, these are the friends brought by Your Highness Thor and Mr. Gu Fan. I have brought them all here, so I will return to guarding the Bifrost Bridge."
"Very well, thank you for your hard work, Heimdall. You may go." All-Father Odin nodded, revealing a faint smile.
Heimdall bowed again immediately before turning to leave.
All-Father Odin and Queen Frigga exchanged a glance again. The Queen understood the meaning in Odin's eyes, nodded secretly, and stepped forward a few paces.
"Gu Fan, are these young ladies your companions? They are truly beautiful!" Queen Frigga came to Gu Fan's side, looking at Natasha and the two other women with a kind smile.
It was as if she were looking at her own daughters-in-law, her face full of excitement and joy.
"Yes, that's right." Gu Fan answered openly, without saying much else.
"These children are truly beautiful, but why do I feel they are not ordinary people?" Queen Frigga immediately asked, looking at Gu Fan with burning eyes.
"Yes, that's right. The three of them are not ordinary people, and they each possess different Superpowers. Their strength is decent, I suppose." Although Gu Fandidn't understand, he still gave a general answer.
"That's wonderful, unlike Thor, who simply won't listen. He's thousands of years old, and hasn't let us hold any grandchildren. Sigh..." Queen Frigga hesitated for a long time before speaking slowly.
"Alright, Gu Fan and his group have just arrived. Let's arrange rooms for them to rest. We will prepare a banquet this evening." All-Father Odin immediately interrupted their conversation and interjected.
Then he called for an attendant to help Thor take everyone to their accommodations.
After everyone had left, Queen Frigga immediately stepped forward, grabbed All-Father Odin's arm tightly, and asked urgently: "I don't know if my intuition is correct, but can you be sure?"
"Yes, I believe my intuition is correct. The two girls by Gu Fan's side likely do not belong to the Nine Realms. It is even possible they are not from the World or Universe we inhabit!" All-Father Odin's expression was solemn; the already deep wrinkles on his brow knit tightly together.
He seemed to be contemplating something important that transcended his own understanding!
"These two girls were brought by Gu Fan? Could it be that Gu Fan is able to travel to other Worlds or Universes? And he can bring people back?" Queen Frigga's eyes widened, her face full of shock and disbelief.
"Yes, I find it hard to believe as well. Even those great Gods of the Celestials might not be able to do it. I only discovered the possibility of other Worlds or Universes through deductions in the ancestral records. I never expected it to actually be true!" All-Father Odin seemed to age significantly all at once, slowly sitting down in his chair.
"Then, what of Asgard's fate! Is the fate of Ragnarok truly unchangeable? Our Thor, our people..." Frigga covered her mouth with trembling hands, unable to hold back her sobs.
"Perhaps it truly has no meaning anymore! The prophecies have all come to pass one by one, and the calamity of our Asgard is imminent! I fear this is a great catastrophe for the Nine Realms, and perhaps even the entire Universe!"
"However, there may still be a turning point! A breaker of the deadlock, one not mentioned in any prophecy, has appeared!" All-Father Odin, who had been bowing his head, instantly looked up, his single eye flashing with the light of wisdom!
"A turning point? Who is it? Could it be..." Queen Friggalooked in the direction everyone had left, and couldn't help but gasp.
"Yes, that's right. Gu Fan's existence transcends the ancient prophecies. I truly admire this child, but I also hope that he is that breaker of the deadlock! Someone who can help us change Asgard's ending!" All-Father Odin sighed, gritting his teeth tightly, as if he felt powerless.
"Gu Fan is a good child; I hope he can help Thor and the ordinary people of Asgard. As for us, it doesn't matter." Queen Frigga slowly walked to All-Father Odin's side, continuously wiping away her tears.
"Yes, the materials for the weapon Gu Fan wants to forge are ready. Let's get it forged for him soon. Even if he cannot save us, I hope this child can safely survive this great catastrophe of the Universe." All-Father Odin sighed helplessly, holding Queen Frigga's hand.
In the majestic palace, the usually dignified All-Father Odinand the graceful Queen Frigga, like two elderly people, held hands under the orange-red sunset, anxiously awaiting the arrival of the fated future...
Gu Fan was unaware of all this. Although he had X-ray Vision, Super Hearing, and super vision, he didn't usually activate them easily, otherwise the data would be too overwhelming and noisy.
And Thor, that Iron Simpleton, was even more unaware. For thousands of years, his heart had only known battle, and now, he also had Jane.
After arranging accommodations for everyone, they each went to rest in their own rooms.
Natasha and the two other women played and laughed as they looked around and admired the room, then they kept trying on the many local Asgardian women's clothes brought by the attendants, clearly all very excited!
Gu Fan had already changed his clothes and was lying lazily on the bed, basking in the Sun.
Watching Natasha and the two other women from a distance as they laughed and played, their figures curvaceous and undulating, with patches of fair skin exposed while they changed into various beautiful clothes.
Gu Fan's mood instantly became restless; he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, immediately intending to get up and go join the girls in their play.
But at this moment, the system's voice suddenly resounded in Gu Fan's mind: "system mission: Help Thunder God Thor, protect Jane, guard Earth and the Nine Realms, and eliminate the Dark Elf King Malekith! Success in the mission brings rewards; failure will result in the deduction of 500 Tier Advancement Points from the Host!"
"What? Why is there suddenly a penalty this time? And it's deducting my Tier Advancement Points? 500 points at that? dog system! Are you robbing me? Trying to scam me?" Gu Fan immediately flipped up from the bed, his face full of anger and speechlessness.
"The impact and importance of this event are significant! It is a regret in the hearts of many! If successful, the Host will receive substantial rewards! Failure to help everyone resolve their regrets and fulfill their wishes naturally requires a certain penalty! Please strive to complete the mission, Host!" The system replied immediately and quickly.
"Oh? Regrets in the hearts of many? Everyone's regrets and wishes? Who are these people? People of Asgard! Earthlings who believe in Norse mythology? Or those people in my World and Universe who have watched the movies?!" Gu Fan's tone instantly turned cold.
Gu Fan's previously complaining and dissatisfied mood instantly calmed down. His mind raced, and a lightning-like thought couldn't help but repeatedly emerge in his brain!
Although Gu Fan felt this was unlikely! Even impossible, absolutely impossible! But this unprecedented, strange thought, like a flame, instantly burned through Gu Fan's entire body!
It made Gu Fan tremble with excitement. Although he hadn't used any Superpower, his body was rapidly heating up! And he began to breathe heavily, gasping for air!
Chapter 140: Asgard's Beauty Banquet
Natasha and the two other women were still changing in the other part of the room and didn't notice Gu Fan's change, remaining overjoyed... Fine beads of sweat appeared on Gu Fan's forehead, and fear once again filled his entire body... He dared not think too deeply.
"Host's rank is too low! Insufficient strength! No authorization! Please, Host, work hard to become stronger, and then you will naturally get all the answers you seek!" The system remained silent for a moment before slowly replying.
"Damn it! It's that reason again! I feel like this secret could eat me alive for a lifetime! Forget it, I'll take it as it comes. It's useless for me to be anxious or afraid! I'll just honestly become stronger." Gu Fan knew the system's nature; it wouldn't easily reveal any information about itself, nor was it like the beginning when he could trick the system into giving up information.
"If it really is my original World, and for those who watched the movie and regretted Queen Frigga's tragic death, then it's true, because when I watched it, I felt both regret and wanted to send a blade to the screenwriter! What a pile of garbage script! So speechless!" Gu Fanwiped his sweat, annoyed, and lay back down indignantly.
Gu Fan brought so many teammates over naturally because he wanted to protect Queen Frigga, and also wanted to help eliminate more Dark Elves' subordinates.
It was also to make up for the regret in his heart at the time.
Gu Fan just felt that everything was becoming increasingly chaotic, unsure of the true situation. He was still deep in thought.
Natasha and the two other women, dressed in Asgardian-style retro long dresses, gracefully walked up to Gu Fan.
Gu Fan's gaze and brain instantly switched channels! What different Worlds, what missions, what punishments. All disappeared without a trace.
In his eyes and mind were only the classical appearances of Natasha and the two other women, with their exaggerated figures and luxurious makeup!
Gu Fan was completely dumbfounded and shouted excitedly: "Damn it, this is too exhilarating! This is simply a goddess descending from the heavens in a Norse mythology story! Nothing is more important than me looking at pretty girls! Hehehe..."
Seeing Gu Fan drooling and looking utterly bewildered, Natasha and the two other women all looked proud, and couldn't help but confidently straighten their already ample and perky chests.
The three women were also overjoyed, feeling that their hours spent with the maidservant learning Asgardian dressing and makeup were well worth it.
Waving for the maidservant to leave and close the door, Gu Fan immediately transformed into a werewolf, laughing excitedly as he rushed forward... The three women giggled and scattered, not wanting Gu Fan to succeed so easily.
Gu Fan and the others instantly started playing 'Eagle Catching Chicks' in the room... Natasha and the two other women even used their Superpowers to evade Gu Fan, constantly covering for each other and scattering to hide in the enormous room.
Gu Fan, too, was in a playful mood and didn't use overly powerful abilities or speed, just slowly chasing and playing. His original uneasy emotions were quickly replaced by joy.
Although Gu Fan and the others were dodging and playing, they weren't using their Superpowers too seriously.
Natasha and the two other women were also overjoyed. However, the caught prey would be... heh, heh, heh... by Gu Fan, the eagle. It wasn't until sunset that a maidservant's knock came from outside Gu Fan's door, softly reminding him that a banquet would be held in the banquet hall later, and All-Father Odin had invited many friends from Earth to attend.
Natasha and the two other women immediately got up to tidy themselves. After all, their clothes and makeup were a mess and needed readjusting.
Gu Fan, on the other hand, looked helpless, feeling that good times always passed quickly... He hadn't even used his full strength to enjoy himself before all the 'enemies' were down again... After a long while, Gu Fan finally led Natasha and the two other women to the banquet hall.
Tony and the others had already arrived, and some had even started eating and drinking.
However, with the dignified All-Father Odin and QueenFrigga present, everyone was clearly a bit reserved and reverent.
But soon, after a few glasses of fine wine. And with the company and atmosphere created by many beautiful women of Asgard, everyone gradually let down their guard and began to enthusiastically eat, drink, and make merry!
Tony, the 'old driver,' literally had his eyes shining, constantly scanning the beautiful women around him.
However, Pepper glared fiercely at Tony and would secretly pinch him.
Then Pepper herself looked around with a surprised expression, constantly admiring various beauties and handsome men.
Gu Fan believed that, truly, the beauties of Asgard were indeed stunning. After all, they were gods, with powerful and excellent genes! Not only were they strong, but their lifespans were also much longer than humans.
Moreover, most of the men in Asgard were handsome men of various types, and most of the women were beautiful women of various types!
The beauties had various hair colors: blonde, wine-red, black, auburn, and more.
While their figures, looks, and heights varied!
They were all, without exception, fair-skinned and beautiful, with long legs and hot, exciting figures!
The climate in Asgard was suitable, so the traditional clothing fabric was very minimal, but it was incredibly beautiful.
When the girls wore them, the main point was that they felt cool, and others looking at them also felt very cool... With a glance, everyone's eyes were filled with long fair legs, delicate arms, and half-revealed, swaying 'big buns'... "Truly wealthy and generous goddesses!" Tony's lips were still twitching from pain, but it couldn't hide his lecherous smile... Each had their own unique charm! They perfectly matched people's fantasies of Norse mythology stories... Seeing this, Tony, Rhodes, and even Captain America were all hot-blooded, their eyes almost popping out, practically not knowing where to look... The 'old pervert' souls of Tonyand the others burned fiercely! Nothing could stop them from admiring beautiful women!
However, it was clear that Pepper would not easily let the wild, unrestrained, and freedom-loving Tony run rampant, so she began to threaten and suppress him.
Of course, mere physical pain couldn't control Tony, who had achieved immense spiritual satisfaction.
While enduring the pinching on his waist, which made his mouth twitch violently, Tony's sharp eyes constantly scanned the many classical beauties of Asgard, his lips curving upwards in the classic smile of an old pervert.
Rhodes was also extremely excited, constantly being toasted and surrounded by beautiful women.
And amidst the women's bell-like laughter and compliments: "You're so amazing, handsome! You hold your liquor so well! You're really strong! Have another drink."
Clearly, with the constant flattery and adoring expressions of the beauties around him, Rhodes gradually lost himself, grinning widely and overjoyed.
He kept drinking glass after glass, and before long, he started feeling dizzy... Then, under the women's praise, Rhodes began to boast about the heroic deeds of his Patriot Robot Armor, and how he solved various different disaster crises... Clearly, Rhodes was a good storyteller, and even better at flirting. Later, he even started performing, vividly acting out different roles.
However, these thrilling stories indeed excited the many Asgardian beauties who had never left Asgard and whose lives had always been safe and stable.
Even Captain America, who was usually honest and steady, looked excited and flushed, constantly being fed various delicacies, fruits, and fine wines under the onslaught of many beautiful women!
Chapter 141: The Numerous Treasures in All-Father Odin's Vault Will Sooner or Later Be Mine!
The various fine wines of Asgard were consumed glass after glass.
Afterward, several girls even fought over Captain Americato dance with him, but what surprised Gu Fan was that a girl with a big chest won in the end. She excitedly dragged Captain America off to dance... Pepper held tightly onto Tony's lower back, continuously looking at the handsome men and beautiful women around them, and accepting the various foods and fine wines they offered... Clearly, everyone was having a blast!
Gu Fan, meanwhile, sat with Natasha and the two other women, eating food and leisurely drinking fine wine.
Natasha and the two other women were also happily tasting the various exquisite foods and fine wines while watching everyone play and joke, all of them highly excited.
From time to time, old acquaintances of Gu Fan ran over to toast and drink with him.
However, The Warriors Three, Sif, and Thor came over, sat down, and didn't leave, constantly chatting with Gu Fan.
After all, they hadn't seen each other for a long time and were curious about each other's situations. While chatting happily, the group also started competing in drinking games.
Gu Fan had a very good relationship with The Warriors Three and Sif!
Back then, Gu Fan wasn't strong enough and was almost mistaken for All-Father Odin's illegitimate son! This rumor really spread wildly among the common people of Asgard.
Even Queen Frigga, who was always dignified, often argued with All-Father Odin!
This left the old All-Father Odin looking utterly bewildered, pained, and helpless, forced to continuously use his three-part defense: "It wasn't me, I didn't do it! I don't know!"
Of course, afterward, Queen Frigga only forgave the old All-Father after she personally sent people to investigate and verify the truth.
However, as everyone gradually became familiar with Gu Fan's easygoing personality, they quickly came to like this sincere, generous, and straightforward young boy!
All-Father Odin and Queen Frigga, in particular, really liked this hardworking, good child.
Queen Frigga even personally made several sets of clothes for Gu Fan.
Gu Fan didn't have a system mission at the time, so he stayed in Asgard for a long period, training, eating, and drinking with The Warriors Three and Sif every day! He lived a carefree and joyful life!
"Oh, right, Gu Fan, Father said that all the materials for your weapon are ready. You can go to the Dwarves' location anytime and have them forge your weapon! When do you want to leave?" Thor chugged a large cup of fine wine, grabbed a large piece of meat, took a big bite, and then spoke indistinctly.
"The materials are finally settled? Are the Dwarves fast at making weapons? Does it take a long time?" Gu Fanimmediately put down his wine glass and stared intently at Thor.
"Don't worry, I'll personally accompany you. The weapon forging won't take long. I'll directly have the Dwarf Kingforge the weapon for you! He is the strongest Master Forger in the Nine Realms! His fame spans the entire Universe! My darling mjolnir was forged with his help!" Thor said proudly, boastfully, and earnestly, while hiccupping.
The Warriors Three and Sif were all filled with envy!
One must know that Mjolnir is a super powerful divine artifact personally forged by the Dwarf King!
But that is Thor's exclusive weapon as a King! Envy is useless, as they couldn't even lift it... And their brother Gu Fan was about to possess one, personally crafted by the Dwarf King, using various special and rare materials personally collected with the help of All-Father Odin.
A super divine artifact belonging entirely to Gu Fanhimself!
This made The Warriors Three and Sif look completely envious! They couldn't help but swallow their saliva!
One must know that possessing a divine artifact of this caliber means a qualitative leap in combat power! This is a treasure every powerhouse dreams of!
"Alright! Then let's leave immediately tomorrow morning! Before we go, I still want to borrow something from His Majesty the All-Father's vault." Gu Fan frowned, thought for a moment, and then slowly spoke.
"Sure, no problem! It's all easy to talk about! But we brothers have to make a few rules! Now that you'll have your own divine artifact, can you please stop constantly trying to use my Mjolnir..." Thor quietly leaned closer to Gu Fan, whispering awkwardly.
"I am the mighty Thor, yet Mjolnir is always being snatched away by you! Doesn't that make me look a bit... *cough* *cough*, you know, a bit awkward..." Thor's voice became softer and softer, his wronged expression showing utter helplessness... The Warriors Three and Sif naturally knew about this, and they couldn't help but snicker on the side... Of course, this was one of the long-standing pieces of gossip circulating in Asgard.
It was also because Gu Fan could use Mjolnir and unleash the Lightning Power that everyone thought he was the son of All-Father Odin... Gu Fan sighed helplessly: "There's nothing we can do, we're brothers! It's just a small matter! Come on, keep drinking! Hahaha!"
Gu Fan brushed it off with a casual remark... "It's just a joke, your weapon and my weapon are no different! If I can use it, that's what matters!" Gu Fan happily complained internally while continuously pouring wine for the bewildered Thor.
Thor looked utterly helpless, secretly deciding to stay far away from this scoundrel Gu Fan in the future, and to hold his darling Meow-Meow Hammer tighter, lest the unscrupulous person in front of him run off with it again... The party lasted a long time, slowly dispersing after midnight... Tony and Rhodes, among others, went back to rest drunkenly, but Gu Fan was too excited to sleep all night, staying awake until dawn.
The next day, as soon soon as it was light, Gu Fanimmediately ran to find Thor, dragging the sleepy-eyed Thor to All-Father Odin's vault.
Thor had already spoken to All-Father Odin last night and received permission.
The two treasures Gu Fan wanted to borrow this time were the Eternal Flame, and the Frost Giant clan's ancestral treasure, the casket of ancient winters!
These two treasures are not only tremendously powerful, but they also have special applications!
The Eternal Flame can not only increase the power of Gu Fan's fire ability, but more importantly, it can resurrect people and animals!
This makes the importance of this item surpass everything else!
The casket of ancient winters can not only increase the power of Gu Fan's ice ability, but it can also grant his weapon the opposite power of fire.
By adding this powerful Fire and Ice into his weapon! Gu Fan couldn't help but wonder how powerful his weapon would become!
Entering the vault, there were countless treasures, and various different gleams continuously shone, indicating how rare and precious these items were!
Although Gu Fan had been here several times, he still couldn't help his heart racing and swallowed nervously.
He secretly complained in his heart: "Damn it, Asgard is truly rich! It's a pity that Thor, this idiot, can't protect this inheritance at all... Why don't I look after this vault for you in the future... Hehehe..."
Gu Fan looked at the numerous treasures with burning eyes.
Finally, his gaze settled on the Infinity Gauntlet, which he had been curious about for a long time.
Chapter 142: Numerous Rare Materials That Made the Dwarf King Drool!
Thor, who was lazily leading the way ahead, kept yawning. When he realized Gu Fan hadn't followed him, he turned back and saw Gu Fan staring at the metallic gauntlet.
"Oh? You're curious about this thing too?" Thor reluctantly walked back.
"Yeah, what is this? Why does it have grooves? Is it an incomplete treasure?" Gu Fan asked, feigning curiosity, as if he didn't know what the gauntlet was.
"Hmm, I used to be very curious about it too, so I asked Father King. He said this is a treasure that can create or destroy everything!" Thor lifted his chin, looking excited, and began showing off to Gu Fan.
"Really? That amazing? Then why doesn't All-Father Odinuse it?" Gu Fan provided Thor with the timely feedback that satisfied his vanity, successfully tricking the Iron Simpleton into spilling all the details!
"Oh, this gauntlet was also personally forged by the Dwarf King! But it's just a vessel; the things truly useful are those missing from the grooves on it!" Thor said, looking helpless.
"So where are those things? Are they missing?" Gu Fanasked, already knowing the answer.
"Yeah, those gems are too powerful, and many big shots in the Universe covet them! The danger involved is too great! And it's basically impossible to collect them all!"
"Besides, many of the gems are located in unknown corners of the Universe! No one has been able to collect them in billions of years. So, this is just a decoration..." Thorsighed, looking utterly helpless. "Is that so? Don't worry, mine! Mine! They're all mine! These treasures will belong to me sooner or later!" Gu Fan's eyes gleamed as he stared excitedly at the Infinity Gauntlet before him.
Originally, Gu Fan was worried that this gauntlet was fake, after all, Thor's sister, Hela, had said so herself.
However, this one was made by the Dwarf King. In the movie, Thanos's Infinity Gauntlet was also made by the Dwarf King.
Thanos must have received information to know that the Dwarf King could forge such a gauntlet. Therefore, Gu Fanguessed that the news likely originated from Asgard, ultimately leading to the Dwarves suffering such a calamity of near-extinction... Gu Fan wasted no time. He pulled Thor, and the two, each carrying a Divine Artifact, immediately headed to the Bifrost Bridge, preparing to go to the Dwarf Kingdom.
The reason Gu Fan was in such a hurry was his desire to obtain his Divine Artifact sooner!
At the same time, he knew that the Dark Elf King Malekithwould soon lead his subordinates in a coordinated internal and external attack on Asgard, and kill Queen Frigga!
Gu Fan had originally planned to deal with the troublemakers before making his weapon, but Thor said the manufacturing time would be very fast, even less than half a day, which instantly swayed Gu Fan.
After all, he remembered that Jane lived in Asgard for a period in the movie, so there was plenty of time.
Gu Fan and Thor were instantly transported by the Bifrost Bridge to the Dwarves' Realm.
It was a place where nearly everything was made of various machines! Steam and fire billowed everywhere.
It was a place full of an old-fashioned steampunk feel.
"Hey, old friend Eitri! I came to see you! How have you been lately?" Thor laughed loudly as he ran up to a giant, and the two embraced excitedly.
Gu Fan knew that this tall, unkempt, rugged-looking fellow with a thick beard and scorched body was the legendary Master Forger, the Dwarf King.
After Thor and the Dwarf King exchanged a few pleasantries, the Dwarf King was introduced to Gu Fan by Thor. They got acquainted and the Dwarf King learned the purpose of Thor's visit.
"You must be a powerful warrior! All-Father Odin values you highly! That's why he commissioned me personally to forge a weapon for you! Rest assured, Young Man, I will do my best to create a perfect Divine Artifact for you!" The Dwarf King looked down, scrutinizing Gu Fan, his voice rough and loud.
The Dwarf King's eyes were full of curiosity and respect. After all, as the Dwarf King and the most elite Master Forger, only the weapons of successive God Kings required his personal touch!
Ordinary warriors' or armies' weapons were mass-produced by other Dwarves. Although they were also powerful weapons!
But compared to Divine Artifacts made with top-tier materials and exclusive customization, the difference was heaven and earth!
Of course, forging a weapon for the future God King—the current Prince—was also acceptable!
Another case was similar to Gu Fan's: a personal commission from the God King to reward a powerful and respected Expert!
Generally, the materials used for Divine Artifacts personally forged by him would be absolutely excellent!
Naturally, the better the materials, the more powerful the resulting Divine Artifact! And being able to forge a more powerful Divine Artifact was the most exciting thing for a Weapon Master obsessed with forging!
"Let me see what materials you have for your weapon! What does the Blueprint look like?" The Dwarf King's eyes lit up, and he asked in a rough, urgent, and curious tone!
"Here, it's all here. Father King spent several years trying every method to accumulate these rare materials. He practically emptied out the most precious rare materials from the Vault..." Thor put down the huge bundle he was carrying on his back and slowly set down a large pile of rare materials.
Hearing Thor's words, the Dwarf King couldn't help but curl his lip, his expression skeptical. He thought: "Seriously? Could it be rarer than the materials for your Mjolnir? Hmph, impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
But as Thor slowly opened the bag, the Dwarf King's initially disdainful eyes suddenly focused, and his casual small eyes instantly glowed!
He took a massive step forward, knelt down, pushed Thoraside, snatched the bag, and carefully pulled out the various rare materials!
As more materials were taken out, the Dwarf King's gaze gradually became vacant, and his expression grew increasingly outrageous! He looked utterly excited and incredulous!
He couldn't help but rub his eyes, then repeatedly scrutinized Gu Fan and Thor's faces.
Thor and Gu Fan looked bewildered, not understanding what was happening.
After hesitating for a moment, the Dwarf King asked with a solemn yet gossipy expression: "Thor, is this Young ManGu Fan perhaps All-Father Odin's Illegitimate Son? Is the God King forging a Divine Artifact for his future Successor? These materials are far richer than those used for your Mjolnir! They are comparable to All-Father Odin's Eternal Spear!"
"Huh? What? I don't know..." Thor stared blankly at the Dwarf King.
Seeing the Dwarf King's small, sympathetic expression, Thor immediately reacted and quickly said, "No, those are just rumors. Gu Fan simply did Asgard a huge favor, so Father King decided to reward him."
Seeing Gu Fan nod continuously with a look of helplessness and composure, the Dwarf King sheepishly extinguished his flame of gossip.
"Don't worry, with such excellent materials, I will definitely forge an even more powerful Divine Artifact! Hahaha!" The Dwarf King's eyes gleamed, and he looked almost tearful! His small eyes were glued to the various rare materials on the table.
"Hmm, I have a few more things here, Dwarf King. Could you see if those can be added too?" Gu Fan's voice interjected at this moment.
Chapter 143: Besides These Materials, I Also Need a Star!
The Dwarf King squatted on the ground, his entire giant body half-crouching, half-kneeling beside the table. His ugly, messy, bearded face kept showing a lewd smile and emitting strange, cackling laughter... His small eyes were fixed intently on the various rare materials on the table that shone with different lights. His rough, large hands caressed them as if stroking a peerless beauty, afraid to use even an ounce of force... All-Father Odin truly went all out this time to secure Gu Fan's help!
However, in order to escape Ragnarok! Even if there was only a sliver of a chance! All-Father Odin was willing to take the gamble!
Although his own lifespan was nearing its end, once he passed away, the many entities coveting Asgard, Earth, and the Nine Realms would surely not remain quiet... Therefore, the rare materials All-Father Odin had Thorbring included several large chunks of Asgard's Uru metal.
The metal hammerhead of Mjolnir uses this very material, and so does the Eternal Spear wielded by All-Father Odin!
A large, straight piece of wood, two meters long and as thick as Thor's thigh—that's right, this is a branch of Yggdrasil, the entity that supports the Nine Realms!
All-Father Odin personally cut this from the oldest branch of Yggdrasil, claiming it was for forging Gu Fan's blade handle and grip.
An even better material would be the main trunk of Yggdrasil. But that cannot be touched... otherwise, the Nine Realms would face serious problems... The handle of Thor's great Mjolnir also uses a branch of Yggdrasil, though it was only a small segment... Besides these, there were various metallic materials and colored gems that Gu Fan didn't even recognize.
No wonder the Dwarf King looked down on the materials Gu Fan had mentioned bringing out.
Even Thor had been looking at Gu Fan with envy, jealousy, and hatred the whole way, and what was worse, he still had to obediently carry that half-human-tall, giant backpack for Gu Fan.
There was nothing he could do; after all, Thor still hoped Gu Fan would steal his precious Meow-Meow Hammerless often... A thousand alpacas stampeded through Thor's heart. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and endure the humiliation under Gu Fan's innocent, invisible show-off expression.
Inside, he constantly cursed Gu Fan, while complaining, "The world is degenerating, and people's hearts are not what they used to be! I, the magnificent thousands-year-old Thor, actually fear the threat of a thief..."
Hearing Gu Fan's words, the Dwarf King didn't even lift his head, replying disdainfully, "Huh? What? Materials you brought? Could anything good you brought be more precious than all the rare materials All-Father Odincollected from the Nine Realms?"
It was then that Gu Fan took out the Eternal Flame.
Near the forge, the Dwarf King instantly felt the surrounding temperature rapidly spike!
This forging master, who had dealt with super high temperatures for many years, quickly began sweating profusely... The Dwarf King immediately looked in front of Gu Fan! And instantly froze in shock!
"This? Is this the Eternal Flame?! You? You actually brought the entire basin over?!" The Dwarf King looked at Gu Fanwith disbelief.
Gu Fan nodded calmly: "Yep, I didn't know how much was needed, and I was afraid taking too little wouldn't be enough, so this way is definitely sufficient! Hehehe..."
"Heh heh, don't worry, there's also this." Thor placed another package on the table and opened it, interjecting with a look of helplessness while watching the Dwarf King's stunned expression!
"This? Isn't this the Frost Giants' ancestral treasure? The casket of ancient winters, capable of instantly turning a Planet into an ice Planet?"
"This? I say, hey, you guys didn't rob All-Father Odin's treasury, did you? You brought all of this?!" The Dwarf Kingwas shocked, feeling the intense cold radiating from the treasure.
His expression instantly twisted! His small, black bean-like eyes widened so much that the whites were visible!
Thor also gave a helpless smile... Gu Fan then pulled out a large chunk of metal from his System!
"What kind of metal is this? The texture and density feel surprisingly high!" The Dwarf King, full of curiosity, picked up a small hammer and began tapping and inspecting the metal, studying it.
"This is a metal from Earth called Vibranium. It can absorb, store, and release energy. It's actually a meteorite that fell onto Earth from outer space," Gu Fan explained casually.
The Dwarf King's eyes lit up, a frantic smile hanging on his lips. Excitedly, he pounced on the large chunk of Vibraniumand began testing it immediately! "There's actually a metal like this? This is too interesting! I have so many inspiring ideas! Great! Fantastic! The inspiration is flowing! I can't stop now! Hehehe..."
Seeing the Dwarf King's frantic excitement, Gu Fan was instantly filled with admiration. Perhaps only someone so utterly obsessed with a single task could take that task to the extreme! Becoming a true Master!
Thor was also dumbfounded and shocked; in all his thousands of years, he had never seen the Dwarf King this excited. It was truly astonishing... "This material, it can really absorb, store, and then rebound energy?!"
"Oh, right, Little Brother Gu Fan, could you spare me some of this Vibranium? I want to use it for research. Of course, I won't take it for free! I'll exchange it with various equivalent treasured metallic materials I have collected! I guarantee you won't lose out!" the Dwarf King said excitedly.
Gu Fan's eyes gleamed, and they spun around. His lips curved into a wild smile as he immediately said generously, "Sure. No problem! Take as much as you want, just leave me enough material to forge the weapon."
Gu Fan naturally agreed. Any rare material valued and treasured by a dignified Forging Master must be a treasure! His Tang Dao would definitely be even stronger this time!
Thor looked enviously at Gu Fan, then glanced at the Mjolnir he was hugging tightly, instantly regaining his confidence as he lifted his chin.
"Your materials are indeed good and very rare, but they're still not good enough! The head of my Mjolnir was forged inside a dying star!"
"Although it was dying, that star was still incredibly powerful! That's why my Mjolnir is so mighty! Jealous, Gu Fan? Hehehe... Eat my dust..." Thor finally felt like he had won the exchange, his face full of confidence! He raised Mjolnir in his hand, showing off with an arrogant and boastful expression!
Gu Fan frowned deeply, raising his hand to constantly rub his chin, pondering inwardly.
"Don't worry, Gu Fan. I definitely plan to forge your weapon inside that star as well." Seeing Gu Fan's slightly worried expression, the Dwarf King immediately reassured him.
"It's a shame that after thousands of years, that star has lost a lot of energy. Its power might not be as great as when Mjolnir was originally created."
"But don't worry, it's completely sufficient! And since your materials are so powerful, we will definitely forge a peerless masterpiece that surpasses Mjolnir! Hehehe..." The Dwarf King laughed excitedly.
"Um, are there any useless young adult stars nearby?" Gu Fan asked seriously, his eyes gleaming.
Chapter 144: Gu Fan's on Fire! He's on Fire! On Fire!
Hearing Gu Fan's words, Thor and the Dwarf King's minds instantly froze... The two stared at each other in confusion, then looked at Gu Fan with strange expressions.
What do you mean by a 'useless star'? Is that even a human thing to say?
"Oh, I understand! Gu Fan, you want to forge weapons in a powerful star?" Thor seemed to grasp Gu Fan's meaning, as this involved the obsession and competition between men!
"Hmm, not bad. A mature star can indeed forge more powerful divine artifacts! However, the energy within that star will also be more powerful and violent! It's not that easy to handle!"
"Even when mjolnir was forged, although it was a dying star, it was still fraught with danger!" The Dwarf Kingimmediately explained, clearly still feeling a sense of lingering fear.
Gu Fan secretly nodded and said seriously, "Very good. Since I'm doing it, I want to do it better! I don't just want to forge weapons that way; I want to seal that star into my divine artifact! Use it as a material, forge it in!"
As soon as Gu Fan finished speaking, Thor and the Dwarf King, who had been laughing moments before, instantly froze. The scene seemed to be fixed in place, no one moved... All that remained was the sound of constant hammering from afar, the hiss of hot air from the furnace, and the loud, bellows-like breathing of Thor and the Dwarf King... "What? What did you say?!" Thor and the Dwarf King shouted in unison! Their voices were sharp, piercing, and deafening!
The tremendous sound literally shook the surrounding dust into the air... "Gu Fan, you're not kidding, are you? Brother, you can't go this far just to save face! You're bragging a bit too much!" Thor's mouth twitched as he stared at Gu Fanas if he were an idiot.
"Well, Gu Fan, maybe you don't understand weapon forging. The Eternal Flame and the casket of ancient winters you brought can extract some energy and seal it into your divine artifact for forging."
"However, how enormous is a star? How could it possibly be sealed into your weapon? At most, like Thor's Mjolnir, it can utilize that exaggerated energy for forging, and sealing some energy would be quite good." The Dwarf Kingpersonally explained to Gu Fan.
The Dwarf King looked helpless, as he had encountered many strange ideas and creations, but almost none of them could be implemented.
However, Gu Fan was so highly regarded by All-Father Odin!
He himself was eager to try! He really wanted to create an even more powerful divine artifact!
Naturally, he had to be more polite and could slowly persuade him. After all, he was a professional! Everything ultimately had to be forged according to his methods.
Gu Fan was too lazy to explain, and naturally understood that the two in front of him were full of disbelief.
He originally didn't have this idea, but Thor's boastful face gave Gu Fan such a wild idea.
After hearing the Dwarf King's explanation of energy infusion and forging, he immediately felt it was feasible! His confidence greatly increased!
"Let's go, you lead the way. Find the nearest, most robust star! The bigger, the better!" Gu Fan's mouth curved upwards as he turned and pulled Thor and the Dwarf King, walking outside.
Thor and the Dwarf King exchanged a bewildered glance, unable to refuse. They decided to just go along for a stroll, considering it a waste of a little time!
Anyway, with the Bifrost Bridge, going anywhere was instantaneous!
"Oh, right, we need to find a star that doesn't have any life-bearing Planets nearby, okay? I don't want to wipe out an entire star system," Gu Fan said, striding along, continuously adding to his requirements.
Thor and the Dwarf King said nothing more, just lazily followed.
As soon as they went out, Thor immediately returned to Asgard via the Bifrost Bridge.
Under Heimdall's observation, several Planets that met Gu Fan's requirements were quickly found.
Gu Fan decisively chose the most powerful star, and then the group quickly teleported over.
Looking at the incredibly huge, orange-red star before them, even though they were still very, very far away! The immense energy and heat still made Thor and the Dwarf King sweat profusely!
Gu Fan instantly changed into his black suit robe and slowly flew a little closer.
With Thor and the Dwarf King looking on in confusion, Gu Fan blissfully felt the immense energy of the star!
This made Gu Fan tremble all over, listening to the constant sound of points being added in his mind: "Comfortable! This is so damn awesome! From now on, I have to be like Superman! Hide in the Sun to absorb energy! It's both awesome and makes me stronger! Invincible! Hahaha!"
Hearing Gu Fan's loud laughter from afar, Thor and the Dwarf King immediately exchanged glances, both speechless, thinking this guy must have gone mad... But, in an instant, Thor and the Dwarf King's eyes widened! They stared dumbfounded at Gu Fan not far away!
At this moment, Gu Fan was completely enveloped in flames! Blazing fires continuously erupted!
"Gu Fan's on fire! He's on fire! On fire!" The Dwarf King, speaking in a muffled voice, instantly grabbed his hair and shrieked at a super-high decibel!
Thor was also completely bewildered, mouth agape, constantly rubbing his eyes, as if to confirm whether he had fallen into an illusion!
"Holy crap! Thor, save him quickly! My divine artifact hasn't even been forged yet, and this guy is going to kill himself just to show off?!" The Dwarf King immediately slapped Thor's shoulder, urgently roaring!
Snapping out of it after being yelled at by the Dwarf King, Thor immediately rapidly swung Mjolnir, intending to fly over and save the idiot Gu Fan.
Just as Thor was about to fly next to Gu Fan, Gu Fansuddenly shouted, "I am the Sun! I am the God of the Sun! Incarnate as the Sun! Haha~ Hahaha..."
An incomparably vast surge of energy instantly burst forth from Gu Fan's body!
Even fiercer flames instantly enveloped Gu Fan, and they were expanding at an exaggerated speed!
Before Thor could even get close to Gu Fan, he was sent tumbling backward, like crashing into an incredibly hard steel fortress, first by the immense energy, then repeatedly retreating.
Before he could react, he was instantly caught up by Gu Fan's endless flames... Looking at the terrifying flames about to engulf him, Thor was instantly dumbfounded... But he used all his strength, even his milky strength, and his hammer was almost sparking from being swung so hard, turning around and flying away... Halfway, Thor didn't forget to grab the already dumbfounded Dwarf King, and they both quickly fled for their lives... However, although Thor's flying speed was very fast, it only kept pace with Gu Fan's flames.
And because he was also carrying the stout Dwarf King, his speed decreased slightly, and the flames chased right behind, scorching his backside... The terrifying high temperature and energy burned the Dwarf King, who was not afraid of high temperatures, causing him to shriek and constantly shout: "Thor, fly faster! It's on fire! It's on fire! My butt is almost roasted! I can't take it anymore! Quickly think of a solution! Otherwise, we'll both become barbecue!"
Chapter 145: Devouring the Giant Stellar Core!
"Damn it, you old geezer, my butt is burning too! But I can't help it! I'm fucking Thor, not the Fire God! I—I'm afraid of Fire too! I'm already using every ounce of strength I have!" Thor shouted miserably while flying with all his might, holding his hammer, and dragging the Dwarf King along.
In the distance, Gu Fan seemed to have fallen into endless madness, his loud laughter continuously spreading out...
Gu Fan's demonic laughter, like a death warrant, closely followed the Fire and monstrous energy he released, relentlessly chasing Thor and the Dwarf King, filling their minds.
It filled their hearts with the fear of being dominated by Gu Fan... a fear that would not subside for a long time.
Even years later, whenever Thor heard Gu Fan shout about transforming into the Sun, or use his Fire abilities, he would reflexively, disregarding everything, immediately turn around, swing his hammer wildly, and run as far away as possible!
As for the Dwarf King, he went from a mad blacksmith obsessed with high-temperature Fire to someone with PTSD regarding Fire. Every time he forged something, he had to wear several layers of special protective suits!
This led to these two funny old bros becoming a joke in Asgard for a time...
In the distance, Gu Fan had transformed from a Pyroemitting Fire into a huge, blazing red Sun! And he was still continuously growing even larger!
Moreover, incredibly violent, massive energy and heat were constantly radiating from this Sun!
In this endless, dark Universe, only darkness that seemed capable of devouring everything existed.
The distant stars were so tiny, twinkling on and off.
A giant Stellar Core that had existed in this Universe for hundreds of millions of years, like an absolute monarch, was continuously releasing the most powerful energy! It illuminated all the darkness around it!
And just not far from it, another small Stellar Core was rapidly growing larger and stronger! It was as if it was unwilling to be outdone!
Gu Fan was feeling incredibly excited right now! A strange divinity was once again rapidly filling his heart!
Gu Fan's expression gradually became excited and manic! He even wanted to completely let go! To fully transform into a complete Stellar Core!
But deep down, Gu Fan understood that he had to maintain the last shred of his composure! He could not be influenced by that inexplicable Sun divinity! He couldn't just have his mind filled with the desire to become a Stellar Core.
Otherwise, he would no longer be his true self! He would be controlled and backlashed by his own power! By the time he regained his senses from the Stellar Core state, who knows how many tens of thousands of years would have passed...
There was no help for it; Gu Fan's current power level was not yet strong enough, at least not yet at the Heavenly Father Level.
Let alone reaching the peak of the Heavenly Father Level, where one could truly wield the divinity and energy of their own body as easily as moving their own arm!
Diana and Thor, even when they were at the Heavenly Father Level, were very powerful, but they couldn't fully utilize their body's strength. They were even troubled by it instead...
For example, the mighty Thor being afraid of electric shocks was just speechless...
Therefore, they were only able to perfectly unleash and control the massive energy of their bodies after reaching the peak of the Heavenly Father Level!
"I am the Sun God! I am the Sun! Stop it!" Gu Fan clenched his fists tightly, opened his mouth wide, and roared loudly from deep within the Stellar Core he had transformed into!
Gu Fan struggled internally! Finally, he suppressed the primal desire deep within his heart to completely transform into the Sun.
Thor and the Dwarf King scrambled away, flying far, far away! They felt as if the Fire was no longer burning their butts...
But the two still didn't dare to look back, continuing to grit their teeth and accelerate, flying an unknown distance, before Thor and the Dwarf King, with terrified faces and panting heavily, slowly came to a stop.
Because the Dwarf King was large in stature, he would fall half a body length behind Thor when flying, so he had truly been scorched by the Fire the entire time...
At a glance, the Dwarf King's shoes were gone, his pants were gone, and only a pair of half-length shorts similar to Hank's style remained covering him...
However, the back of his butt was also completely scorched... even his thick leg hair was burned off...
As soon as they stopped, the Dwarf King grimaced in pain, hopping around, and quickly slapped at the Fire on his butt with both hands.
After finally extinguishing it a few seconds later, he slowly let out a breath of stale air.
Only then did he bare his big white teeth, looking at Thorbeside him with a face covered in soot, and burst into laughter!
Thor looked equally miserable; his face was also covered in soot, his shoes were burned off, and the Armor on his body was blackened, having lost all its luster.
He was bare-footed with his big black feet, even his cape was burned until only half remained, and even his flowing golden hair had curled up due to the high temperature.
Seeing each other's miserable state, Thor and the Dwarf King couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time, but their hearts were filled more with fear of Gu Fan's transformation into the Sun...
Thor and the Dwarf King then immediately turned around, looking back at the Sun, Gu Fan, who had almost finished them both off, and couldn't help but swallow hard...
"Thor, do you think this guy Gu Fan is a descendant of some ancient deity? He is terrifyingly powerful!" The Dwarf King, with a terrified expression, stared with his shiny black beady eyes, intently watching the distance.
"Damn, I don't know..." Thor also looked at the two Suns, one big and one small, in the distance with a bewildered and shocked expression!
His hands were trembling slightly, and large drops of sweat were streaming down his forehead; however, this was not hot sweat caused by high temperatures, but cold sweat caused by extreme fear after escaping death...
Gu Fan felt that the power in his whole body had reached the limit of what he could control, and he forcefully stopped his transformation into the Sun.
Although the Sun that Gu Fan had transformed into also felt incredibly huge!
But looking from afar, Gu Fan's Sun was probably only about one percent the size of a real Stellar Core.
However, these two Stellar Cores, one big and one small, were very close to each other, which could be considered a cosmic wonder!
This quiet Universe instantly became much brighter because of the existence of the two Stellar Cores!
Just when Thor and the Dwarf King were curious about what kind of trouble Gu Fan was up to.
The small Sun that Gu Fan had transformed into suddenly emitted a massive wave of blazing red energy, rushing straight towards that giant Stellar Core!
The energy rapidly rushed towards the giant Stellar Coreand then began to wrap around it!
As the giant Stellar Core was rapidly enveloped by the energy emitted by the small Stellar Core, the small Stellar Core also began to shrink rapidly!
After a while, the Sun that Gu Fan had transformed into completely disappeared, and Gu Fan also returned to his Pyro form.
However, the giant Stellar Core was also completely enveloped; although it continuously emitted terrifying energy from countless nuclear explosions, wanting to vent it out.
It was completely unable to do so, and not even a sliver of energy leaked out!
"Uh, what the? Did Gu Fan just swallow that giant Stellar Core himself? How can he take away such a huge Stellar Core? How is he going to equip it into a weapon?" Thorwas shocked and bewildered, curiously looking at the Dwarf King, who was equally bewildered and kept shaking his head like a rattle.
Just at this moment.
"Condense!" Gu Fan shouted!
The giant Stellar Core actually began to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye...
