Chapter 1983 Wang Lai Allows, Wang Lai Acknowledges, Wang Lai Bears the Burden of the Entire World!
Marvel Universe, Asgard, Golden Palace.
Beside the throne, the space rippled like water, and a figure dressed in an orange mage's robe, wearing a sling ring and the Eye of Agamotto appeared beside Loki—it was Tony Stark.
He didn't use the Rainbow Bridge, but instead teleported there directly using Kamar-Taj's spatial magic.
After the two worlds merged, he and Loki were now in one world, and with his power, crossing countless light-years to get here was not a difficult task.
Tony looked at Loki, who sat on the throne clad in a long robe and wielding the spear Gungnir, and couldn't help but speak:
"Are you really that confident in yourself? Don't end up getting picked up and beaten by Thanos."
Loki glanced at Tony with his emerald eyes, a reserved yet arrogant smile curving his lips:
"Heh, of course I am confident in myself."
"I am the King of Asgard."
"The king grants permission, the king acknowledges, the king bears the weight of the entire world on his shoulders!"
He slowly rose from his throne, the Gungnir in his hand naturally becoming an extension of his body, radiating a silent pressure.
The gods of trickery and lies of the past are long gone. Now, in Asgard exists the great god-king Loki! He is the monarch who shoulders the glory, authority, and responsibility of Asgard.
His confidence stemmed from power, authority, and even more so from his awareness as a "king".
Loki gripped Gungnir's gun barrel with his right hand and slammed the tip of the gun heavily against the ground beneath his feet!
"boom!!!"
An invisible yet vast and powerful wave, centered on the point where the spear tip landed, instantly spread throughout the entire Golden Palace, and then rapidly expanded, enveloping every hall and every corridor of the Immortal Palace.
It pierced through thick walls, swept over towering mountains, and resounded in every corner of Asgard!
All Asgardians—whether they are training heroic warriors, craftsmen forging artifacts before the forge, priests praying in the temple, mothers raising children at home, or even the winged horses galloping across the plains—are all part of this community.
At that moment, everyone stopped what they were doing, involuntarily straightened their spines, and solemnly looked in the direction of the Golden Palace.
That is the will of their king, the great god-king Loki Odinson!
Immediately afterwards, Loki's majestic voice resounded in the ears of every Asgardian:
"Soldiers of Asgard! People of Asgard!"
"Hear the call of your king!"
"An arrogant challenger, a Titan from a parallel universe named 'Thanos,' is gathering his army, coveting this sacred land beneath our feet, the peace of the Nine Realms, and the glory of Asgard!"
"He's very strong!"
Loki's voice suddenly rose, carrying a chilling air of facing a formidable foe.
"His army may be as numerous as locusts, blotting out the sun, and his own power may be enough to shake the stars! Someone told me that he is no match for us!"
At this point, Loki paused slightly, as if gathering even more powerful energy, or as if giving all listeners time to think and reflect.
Above the golden palace, Gungnir in his hand began to emit a dazzling golden divine light, echoing the torrent of divine power surging deep within the entire Asgardian land. Countless runes on the palace buildings lit up one by one, as if the entire realm of the gods was responding to the will of the god-king!
"but!"
"I don't believe it!!!"
"Tell me, warriors of Asgard! Has your blood, inherited from ancient times and bathed in the glory and light of victory, cooled?!"
"Has your courage, which once conquered countless powerful enemies across the Nine Realms, waned?!"
"We are the sons of Odin! We are Asgardians! Our ancestors fought against giant wolves, wrestled with the world serpent Jormungandr, and built an eternal kingdom that shines upon the nine realms!"
"Challenge? Formidable foe?"
Loki's voice was filled with unparalleled pride and arrogance, as if he were proclaiming an unquestionable truth:
"This is the meaning of my existence as an Asgardian warrior! This is the moment when the glory of Asgard is revealed!"
"The skulls of powerful enemies are the most dazzling jewels adorning the throne; the blood-soaked battles are the most magnificent chapters in the epic!"
"We are never afraid of challenges."
"We are born to overcome challenges!"
"Any enemy who dares to covet the divine realm and desecrate its glory."
"Crush them under your feet!!!"
Loki suddenly raised Gungnir high in his hand, and golden divine power erupted from his body like the sun, resonating with the origin of the entire Asgardian realm.
The clouds churned in the sky, and streaks of golden light pierced the heavens, making him appear like a god descended to earth.
"Roar!"
"For Asgard!!!"
"For Loki, the King of Gods!!!"
The entire city of Asgard erupted in an instant, with countless warriors raising their weapons and letting out deafening battle roars.
The craftsmen, their faces flushed, poured even more divine power into the forge; the priests' prayers grew more devout and resounding; even ordinary people were so excited that their faces were flushed, wishing they could personally go into battle to fight the enemy.
The God-King's declaration ignited the dormant fighting spirit and sense of honor within the blood of every Asgardian, filling them with no fear, only a burning will to fight and confidence in victory.
Tony stood beside Loki, feeling the overwhelming fighting spirit and divine majesty that swept across the heavens and earth. He watched Loki's back, as upright as a pine tree in the golden light, seemingly able to bear the weight of the entire world. For a moment, he was lost in thought.
His impression of Loki was still from when he first joined the chat group.
Loki, unwilling to acknowledge his Frost Giant bloodline, obsessed with the throne, and outwardly resistant to Thor but inwardly still deeply concerned for him.
But looking at the roar that was like a mountain collapsing and the Loki who, simply by standing there, had gathered the will of the entire Asgard, he remembered.
He is Loki Laufeson, son of Odin, possessing the purest Odin blood, and having washed away the blood of the Frost Giants from his body.
With his wisdom and strength, he stabilized the situation in Asgard during the crisis and thwarted conspiracies from both inside and outside the country.
He inherited Odin's power with undisputed authority, was crowned the true King of Asgard, and became the universally recognized King of the Gods and Lord of the Nine Realms.
Furthermore, because of the Odin bloodline, which is even purer and more powerful than Odin's bloodline, he is firmly bound to Asgard itself, and is more like the embodiment of the concept of Asgard's "Father" than Odin.
He has grown into a true king.
A king who not only possesses power, but also knows how to use it; who not only possesses authority, but also knows how to shoulder responsibility, unite the people, and lead the nation forward.
"Who is the enemy the God-King is referring to?"
Just then, a calm voice rang in Tony's ear, instantly catching Loki's attention.
Both of them immediately looked toward the source of the sound.
On one side of the Golden Palace, in the shadows that were originally empty, the spatial textures rippled out like water, and golden sparks outlined a circular portal.
A figure dressed in a bright yellow monk's robe, with a shiny bald head, slowly walked out.
"The Ancient One!"
Tony blurted it out almost without thinking, his voice filled with barely concealed surprise.
Although he inherited the position of Sorcerer Supreme and was already capable of standing on his own, he still faced the person who guided him onto the path of magic, who was both a teacher and a friend, especially since the Ancient One from his original world had already passed away.
Seeing the "living" Ancient One again in another parallel universe evokes emotions that are hard to describe.
The Ancient One shifted her gaze from Loki to Tony, a hint of understanding flashing in her eyes that seemed to see through the mists of time, before turning into a gentle sigh:
“You should call me ‘teacher,’ Tony.”
Her voice carried a hint of barely perceptible relief.
"I never imagined that in another world, it would be you who embarked on this path; and that you would go faster and further than I could have imagined."
With just one glance, the Ancient One of this world had already discerned a great deal.
She saw the mark of the "Sorcerer Supreme" on Tony's body, the Eye of Agamotto on his chest, and the powerful magical aura in his soul.
She understood that the Tony Stark before her was not the "Iron Man" of her world, but rather the Tony Stark from another parallel universe who had replaced "Stephen Strange" as the Sorcerer Supreme of Earth.
Loki's eyes narrowed slightly when the Ancient One appeared, but he quickly regained his composure as a god-king.
He was no stranger to the Ancient One.
It wasn't just because of the memory copy and her identity as the Sorcerer Supreme, but also because he had met the Ancient One before.
"Supreme Lord, what brings you to Asgard so suddenly?"
Loki's voice was steady, carrying the courtesy befitting a god-king, but also a hint of the master's reserve and a touch of aloofness.
The Ancient One's gaze returned to Loki, she nodded slightly, and said in a calm tone:
"I dare not presume to offer guidance, Your Majesty the Divine King."
"I just sensed unusual 'ripples' and 'omens' in the Nine Realms, especially in Asgard."
"The rules of the universe seem to have undergone a dramatic change, and the dimensional barriers have also fluctuated. Your Majesty's declaration just now has stirred up the threads of fate, pointing to a catastrophe that could affect the entire Nine Realms and even a wider star field."
She paused, her gaze sweeping over Tony before returning to Loki.
“I saw a shadow of destruction and greed approaching from a distant place; I also saw ‘helping hands’ from other worlds.”
"The Supreme Being's perception remains as sharp as ever."
Loki remained noncommittal, neither confirming nor denying the Ancient One's description of the invaders.
"So, Your Excellency, are you here on behalf of Midgard or Kamar-Taj to state your position?"
Gu Yi smiled slightly.
"Karmar-Taj's mission is to protect the Earth and its dimensions from threats beyond the ordinary."
"The impending threat has clearly gone beyond the 'normal' realm and may even shake the very foundations of reality."
"As for stance."
She looked at Loki, her gaze becoming serious:
"Asgard is the guardian of the Nine Realms, and His Majesty the King of Gods is the leader of Asgard."
“If Your Majesty is determined to protect the Nine Realms and resist foreign enemies, then Kamar-Taj will naturally stand on the same side as Asgard.”
"After all, if Asgard falls, Midgard will probably not be able to escape unscathed either."
"not to mention."
The Ancient One turned her gaze back to Tony, and said in a gentle tone:
"Now that my 'students' are here, fighting to protect the peace of both worlds, how can I, as their teacher, stand idly by?"
Upon hearing this, Tony also bowed slightly to the Ancient One:
"Thank you, teacher."
Although with Bai Xuan's presence, this war can be said to be a sure victory, who would refuse to have an extra helper?
Moreover, the Ancient One's strength is extremely powerful.
Even with his current strength, Tony doesn't believe he has truly surpassed the Ancient One.
Loki felt a surge of pleasure as he listened to the Ancient One's calm yet firm words, especially the line, "If Your Majesty is determined to protect the Nine Realms, Kamar-Taj will naturally stand on the same side as Asgard."
It was like drinking a sip of aged mead, sweet and soothing.
This statement sounds as if Kamar-Taj is positioned as collaborating with Asgard, or even subtly submitting to Asgard's dominant position.
Although Loki knew perfectly well that the Ancient One's statement was largely due to considerations of the situation and her own detached personality.
But knowing something is one thing, hearing it is another.
At least to Loki, this was undoubtedly an acknowledgment and respect for his status as the "King of Gods" and the "Lord of the Nine Realms" of Asgard.
He liked this statement.
"very good."
"The Supreme Being is wise and righteous. With Asgard and Kamar-Taj joining forces, the barrier between the Nine Realms will be indestructible."
Loki's voice was steady and powerful, carrying the gentle acceptance of an ally by its master.
With a wave of his hand, the three-dimensional strategic star map composed of starlight and divine power expanded and refined once again, not only clearly marking the defenses and the control center of the Rainbow Bridge in various parts of Asgard, but even beginning to simulate a three-dimensional space radiating from Asgard to the surrounding star fields.
"Based on current intelligence, the invaders come from a parallel universe, they must have a large army under their command, their strength is at least at the galaxy level, and they may possess unknown methods."
"Moreover, because he comes from a parallel universe, he has most likely already collected all the Infinity Stones from the world he came from."
"Six Infinity Stones"
The Ancient One frowned slightly, and countless lights and shadows flickered wildly in his deep, ancient eyes, as if he had observed the possibilities of thousands of timelines in an instant.
However, what she saw was still the same thing the Titan had done in the past, but the history of the universe was very different from that time.
Just as Loki became the King of Asgard, and as the son of the Frost Giant King, he possessed the purest Odin blood, the history of the world was already different.
What she saw was naturally wrong as well.
So, you can't see it?
Loki tilted his head slightly, his gaze sweeping over the solemn-looking Ancient One, a smile curving his lips—the composure of a king.
"Your Excellency need not be nervous."
"In this battle, we also have allies; and they are allies capable of leading us to victory."
"The final outcome was already predetermined."
"We will surely win."
