Chapter: 303
London, Royal Holloway University.
"Hey, your new look is really good! But if you think wearing a single piece of clothing can keep you inconspicuous, you're missing the point a little."
Dr. Erik, who works as a researcher at Royal Holloway University, saw a tall figure standing next to his car after work.
And he immediately recognized the person, Prince of Asgard, his good friend - Thor, the God of Thunder.
"I need your help." As soon as Dr. Erik appeared, Thor didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose for coming here.
"It's nice to need someone!!" As a single man who has never been in a relationship, Dr. Erik humorously made a joke but also gave his answer - he was willing to help Thor.
"But this time it's a bit dangerous." When Thor heard Erik's agreement, his first reaction wasn't happiness; instead, he honestly confessed the risks of this mission.
"I'd be disappointed if there were no risks with you. Get in the car; our adventure begins."
"Tell me, what kind of tricky problem did you encounter that made you come to me?" Inside the car, as Erik drove out of the campus, he asked about the trouble they needed to solve this time.
"I need you to help me find [Water of Sight]. Every realm has its reflection, and if the Norns are willing to accept me, I can return to the dream and find the truth I missed," Thor revealed his ultimate goal for coming this time to Erik.
"But the legend says that those who enter the Water of Sight don't have a good end. Are you sure you want to take such a risk to find the so-called truth in the dream?"
Erik attempted to persuade Thor to give up this action.
Since he had known Thor and learned about the nine realms and many myths and legends that remained from the past, all of which turned out to be real, Erik had begun exploring related aspects of ancient myths while conducting his job in astronomical physics research.
And about the legend of the Water of Sight, he had just happened to read about it in one of the ancient books introducing Norse mythology.
It was for this reason that Erik tried to convince Thor to give up this idea. He didn't want Thor to fall into unfortunate circumstances for an uncertain truth.
However, Thor was very resolute: "It was definitely not an illusion of a dream. I am sure that the scenes appearing in my mind are prophesying the future.
So, regardless, I need to figure out what the future's changes and crises are. Only then can the Avengers and Asgard be prepared early enough to prevent tragedy."
"Well, since you've made up your mind, I'll accompany you to the end. I read about the legend of the Water of Sight in an ancient book before, and it seemed to mention the specific location.
Let's first go back to my apartment to get the ancient book and then determine our final destination."
...
The process of finding the Water of Sight went very smoothly. From the ancient book Dr. Erik obtained, they identified their destination located in Glastonbury, southwest of this country.
Coincidentally, the location they determined for the Water of Sight happened to be the legendary resting place of King Arthur, known as the "Isle of Blessed" or "Avalon," the paradise - a blessed land.
This led Dr. Erik to think of the stories about the lake spirits in the legend of King Arthur. Could it be that King Arthur's tragic fate was a result of bathing in the Water of Sight?
Dr. Erik shook his head, trying to dispel this bold speculation from his mind. He didn't want this guess to come true.
Because if the description in the legend about the unfortunate fate of those who entered the Water of Sight was true, it meant that Thor, who was determined to enter it, would face a very difficult future, which was something he, as a friend, didn't want to happen.
However, Dr. Erik knew that he couldn't stop Thor no matter what. All he could do was silently pray, hoping that this curse would have no effect on Thor, the God of Thunder.
"This is it, the Water of Sight."
After passing through dense forests and rugged terrain, Dr. Erik finally led Thor into a pitch-dark cave.
After confirming that this was the final destination they sought, Thor didn't hesitate at all. He directly took off his shirt and shoes and walked confidently towards the pool in the cave.
"Erik, you might need to stay away for a bit. When I enter the dream again, the magic within me might become uncontrollable due to the encounters I have in it.
To avoid accidentally harming you, it's best if you hide behind the rocks or outside the cave entrance."
Dr. Erik nodded and retreated, taking cover behind a wall of the cave. "Don't worry; I'll take care of myself. But before you proceed, as a friend, I must ask you one last time, are you really sure about risking being cursed by entering?"
Thor didn't reply; he smiled and nodded, then directly leaped into the pool.
The Water of Sight wasn't very deep, just enough to reach Thor's chest. After soaking in it for a while, Thor seemed to have gained the acceptance of the norn and re-entered the previous dream.
As time passed, Thor seemed to encounter something that made him extremely angry in the dream. His body began to tremble, and then he swung his fists forcefully in the air.
As he had warned, the magic within him lost control, and intense electrical flashes erupted continuously, instantly illuminating the once dim cave.
After an unknown amount of time and another burst of magic, Thor's eyes suddenly opened wide.
In his gaze, Dr. Erik saw no joy in discovering the truth. Instead, it was filled with inexplicable terror, mixed with determination and a sense of battle readiness.
"It seems you've found the answers you wanted." Dr. Erik stepped out from behind the wall and handed Thor the shirt he had taken off.
"Yes, in the dream, I saw visions of the future. The hopes of all life were being sucked and devoured by a massive vortex, and at the center of the vortex were the six Infinity Stones, which have been passed down since the birth of the universe.
The Infinity Stones possess the most formidable power in the cosmos, unrivaled in their destructive capabilities. In order to win, the Avengers need to make some changes..."
