Gungnir

Finally, he could only force out an ugly smile towards Zane.

But apologizing was impossible for him; that would probably be more unbearable than being killed.

Zane was also generous enough not to hold it against him.

Now Odin was treating him as an equal.

In other words, Thor was just a mischievous kid from a friend's house to Zane.

This is the change brought about by strength.

There is no backward concept of judging by age in the universe.

Everywhere, strength reigns supreme.

As long as your strength is strong enough, it doesn't matter if you're just a fraction of someone else's age.

You can still make others call you whatever you want!

So Zane couldn't be bothered to argue with Thor, the mischievous kid.

His attention was focused more on the Spear 'Gungnir' Odin held in his hand...

This divine spear can be said to be one of the top artifacts in the Marvel Universe.

The Gungnir was forged by the dwarves, with runes engraved on the spearhead and the handle made from branches of the World Tree.

The spear's ability is quite simple yet powerful; once thrown, it will always hit its target 100%.

And it can penetrate anything it hits, then automatically return to the owner's hand.

When Odin throws this spear, it emits lightning that pierces the sky, hence its name, Gungnir.

Moreover, the Spear is also the core key to the Bifrost, the strategic weapon of Asgard.

In the original story, Loki almost destroyed the Frost Giant's planet by using Gungnir to pass through Bifrost.

This shows that the Bifrost is not just a teleportation device for Asgard but also an ultimate weapon capable of destroying planets.

The Spear 'Gungnir ' is also a symbol of the throne of Asgard, wielded only by the reigning Kings to conquer the Nine Realms.

Unfortunately, after Odin's death, this divine spear fell into obscurity.

After Odin's fall, its symbolic significance far outweighed its practical use.

After passing through the hands of Loki, Hela, and Thor, this artifact was treated as nothing more than a hard stick and showed no power.

And eventually, it disappeared with the destruction of Asgard.

This is the tragedy of this divine weapon!

Zane could even hear the cry of this divine spear.

So Zane naturally expressed that he had already reserved this divine spear!

It can be said that the Spear 'Gungnir ' is the most suitable weapon for the [King's Treasury]

It could even be considered the treasure of the treasury.

Only in Zane's hands can this divine spear unleash its greatest power.

Unfortunately, Gungnir is still in Odin's hands, and Zane cannot snatch it away even if he wants to.

As long as the owner of Gungnir is still alive, even if it is lost, it can reappear in the owner's hand even through endless space.

This setting is quite tricky.

But Zane can wait; after Odin dies, Zane will definitely not let this divine spear gather dust anymore!

Gradually, as Zane's gaze towards Gungnir became more and more fervent...

Odin suddenly felt something and turned his head to look at Zane.

And at the moment when Zane felt Odin's gaze on him, he shifted his gaze away.

He looked at Thor and showed a gentle expression towards him.

That kind of expression, as if an elder was forgiving a junior, couldn't have been more magnanimous.

Thor felt blinded; it's not like I said anything!

Why do you look at me with that look as if I'm your child?

Thor's heart was in turmoil at the moment.

If it weren't for Odin standing by, our Hammer God would definitely swing his hammer to let Zane know the power of the small hammer.

And after seeing that Zane didn't blame Thor, Odin also breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't want the friendship he had finally established with Zane to be shattered by his immature son.

But whether it was his illusion or not, just now, Odin always felt like someone was cursing him to die quickly behind his back.

Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, Odin naturally ordered the defense system of Asgard's city to be shut down and instructed his subordinates to guide the Ark to a specific landing pad in Asgard.

After all, letting the Ark, this fierce behemoth, hover over the Bifrost would inevitably cause panic among the residents of Asgard.

And Odin also instructed Asgard's researchers to bring Skynet to study the technology of Asgard.

After all, since Zane directly told him about the Twilight of the Gods, as the King of the Gods, he naturally had no reason to break his promise.

But the star map still had to wait until they returned to the palace. Under the witness of the thousands of citizens of Asgard, Odin would personally hand it over to Zane.

On one hand, it was to solidify the friendship with Zane, and on the other hand, it was to let the whole of Asgard know that Zane was his ally.

Don't make any more blunders like Thor's.

Once, Zane could forgive Thor's rudeness and recklessness just to save face for him.

But if it happens again, even if it doesn't directly break apart, it will inevitably create a rift in Zane's heart.

Odin spared no effort to cultivate his relationship with Zane, even to the point of trying to please him, not without reason.

In fact, Odin was not doing it for himself; he could feel that his end was near.

Even if he fell into his Odin's sleep, he could only delay it for a dozen years.

And Odin, known as the King of the Gods, had unimaginable power.

Even if he was about to fall, even if his power had declined to the extreme, he still had confidence that as long as he lived for one more day, the other eight realms would not dare to make too big of a move.

Everything Odin did was for the future of Asgard.

More precisely, it was for Thor.

In fact, Odin did treat his children equally.

Although Loki was adopted by him, and he was also the child of a Frost Giant.

Odin still treated him as his own, the affection developed over a long time of being together, making the bond of blood seem fragile in comparison.

Odin's decision to let Thor inherit the throne was not because he was his direct bloodline.

It was because Odin saw in Thor a quality that a King must have - the capacity to embrace everything!

And Loki didn't have that kind of capacity and breadth of mind.
