Loki claims to be a god, but he is actually very arrogant. He rarely shows humility to people other than Odin. He especially looks down on ordinary humans and is unwilling to say more to them. For this reason, he is often criticized by Odin.
Ding’s lesson.
But the current situation is that Strange has become Loki's client, and Loki has to start explaining the plan to him in detail.
"Asgard rules the entire nine kingdoms. Any changes here cannot be hidden from the Father of the Gods. Not long ago, a symbiote carrying the power seed of the symbiote god Gnar wanted to sneak into the nine kingdoms.
country."
As Loki spoke, he looked at Odin's face to judge whether his guess was correct or not.
"At that time, the Father of the Gods had already discovered him, but in order to find out Nall's movements, the Father of the Gods planned to wait until the Seed of Power erupted on its own before dealing with it."
"Afterwards, the symbiote's organization, the Space Agent, came to Asgard and claimed that they wanted to hunt down the traitors of the race. The Father of the Gods kindly agreed to their request and released a Space Agent symbiote into the nine kingdoms.
of Earth.”
"During this time, we did a little business with some dimension masters."
Loki turned his head again, glanced at Odin's expression, and found that he had no dissatisfied expression, so he continued: "The dimension masters submitted a deposit to us, and we have preliminary finalized the rate of return with most of the demon gods.
"
At this time, Strange said: "I do know this part. In fact, only the last few people are left, and the contract has already been signed."
"But human deception alone... I mean wisdom is not enough to make these cunning dimension masters invest heavily. Most of them just have a tentative mentality..."
Loki slightly raised his voice: "This group of demon gods with endless lifespans are actually more cunning and cautious than imagined. Before they see real rewards, no matter how fanciful they are, they will not really do it."
Take the bait."
"So, the Father of the Gods and the Supreme Mage thought that we must let them taste the sweetness first."
"Only when these demon gods get tangible returns will they really participate in this plan, instead of letting humans provide them with continuous advisory services under the guise of investment."
"Indeed, I can feel that most of the demon gods now call the Holy of Holies just to have a team of consultants. The deposits they pay are nothing to them, but they can have a team of consultants who can provide them with services anytime and anywhere.
The proposed staff..."
Loki nodded, indicating that Strange was right.
"This kind of interest relationship is neither enough for humans to benefit from the transaction, nor is it enough for Asgard to make enough profits from it. If we cannot further deepen the transaction, our efforts will be in vain."
"So, under the orders of the Father of the Gods, I have been searching for a source of power in the universe that can serve as a breakthrough."
"But at this moment, the symbiote carrying the seed of Nnar's power broke out. The ancient demon god Nnar, who had been imprisoned in Klinta for a long time, wanted to project his power to the earth."
"According to the information I just learned in the Andromeda Nebula, Gnar seems to be looking for a special symbiote, but no matter what, he intends to open a channel of power between the planet Klinta and the earth."
At this time, the slightly anxious expression on Strange's face disappeared. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Just what we wanted, right?"
Loki nodded and said: "That is true, but the Father of the Gods believes that merely projecting power through a narrow power channel cannot meet the needs of the dimension lords, the people of Earth and Asgard."
"so……"
"So just now, on the order of the Father of the Gods, I went to the Andromeda Nebula and conducted some minor survey work."
"I have a question..." Strange asked with some confusion: "Is the Gnar from Klinta so strong? If he really breaks out of his cage and comes to Earth, we are really sure that he can eat it.
It?"
"Nar is indeed very strong." At this time, Odin spoke, his voice was low and rich, with a power that no one could question: "He may be the oldest creature in the universe, and the power it possesses is the origin of the universe.
The power of chaos."
"He was born in the initial darkness of the universe. When he was awakened by the sound of the gods creating life, he denied this creation and believed that everything should return to chaos. So he used a handful of all-black weapons drawn from the chaos of the universe.
The Death Sword killed a member of the Celestial Group."
Ancient One followed Odin's words and explained to Strange: "The Celestials are extremely powerful cosmic gods. They interfere in the development of various civilizations in the universe and use various civilizations to conduct experiments."
"Many years ago, the Celestial Gods visited the Earth several times." Odin's voice fell into memories: "All the gods on the Earth combined are no match for them."
"But even if the Celestials were so powerful, Nal still killed one of them. The Celestials who went to retaliate could not completely kill Nal. They could only defeat Nal and then throw him back into Chaos."
"As long as there is darkness and chaos in this universe, Gnar will never die."
Strange was very interested in these anecdotes about the universe, but he also knew that now was not the time to get to the bottom of it. He asked: "Since Gnar is so powerful, we still take the initiative to provoke him, what..."
At this time, both Odin and Ancient One showed a somewhat strange expression. They looked at each other, and Odin spoke first: "Nar's power is indeed very powerful. It can even be said to be the most original power in the universe. The power of other demon gods
All persons of power are beneath him."
"But the only problem is that ancient creatures born in chaos and darkness are not very good at using their brains."
Ancient One added: "Chaos represents nothingness and madness. No matter how powerful a creature with this attribute is, his behavior will be crazy and illogical."
"It has no purpose and no logic. The only way for chaotic creatures to exist is to return the universe to chaos and darkness."
"It is precisely because of their chaos and madness that they do many things without thinking too much."
Strange heard the euphemistic hint from Ancient One. Simply put, Gnar had no brains.
But Strange thinks this makes sense, because thinking and wisdom are inherently orderly, and any crazy behavior of intelligent creatures has its own logic behind it. If there is really a kind of creature, its existence and purpose are anti-order.
Then it is destined that it cannot have too high wisdom.
In other words, his wisdom is too advanced and too early for the entire universe.
Strange touched his forehead, and he suddenly realized that if you put it this way, Gnar was simply the best target.
Ancient, powerful, chaotic, crazy, his brain is not very easy to use, and because he has been locked up for too long, he cannot keep up with the pace of the version. Who else can he cheat?
"Wait a minute, Mordo just told me that the earth's defense system has been breached?" Strange looked at Ancient One.
"Modo's words are a little conservative, but he has always been like this." Ancient Yi sat in his seat and said very calmly: "Since the power seed began to erupt, the earth's magic defense system has not been opened."
"But if Nar really comes, the earth may..."
Loki shook his head and said to Strange: "You can rest assured, I just came back from Andromeda. The cage imprisoning Gnar is very strong. It is unlikely that his body will escape. The only thing that can come out is strength.
"
"The projection of power is like a pipeline." Loki gestured with his hand and said: "Located at the end of Klinta where Nal is located, the entrance of the pipeline has just been expanded by me. Nal can move to Klinta more quickly and efficiently.
Export power externally.”
"The pipe mouth on this side of the earth was enlarged by the Supreme Mage. She removed the earth's magic defense system and even actively guided Nar's power to accurately project.
"Nar, who was born in chaos, projects his power and will naturally want to use this power to defeat all enemies in front of him and erode the universe with darkness and chaos, just like he did before."
"And if he can't do it, then he will increase his investment in power. Nar, who was born in chaos and darkness, will not understand what tactical detours and strategic retreats are. He will only want to use his powerful power to corrode
universe."
"So as long as we can hold him back, we can let him continuously project power here?" Strange continued. "
"But wouldn't it be too risky for us to choose this location on the earth? The earth is full of fragile ordinary people. Not to mention the dark power of Nar, they have no resistance to magic."
Loki shook his head, and then explained to Strange: "Choose the exit of the pipeline on the earth does not mean that the power of Nar will be able to come directly to the earth."
"It's still the same pipeline principle. Although the outlet of the pipeline is on the earth, the dimension lords participating in this plan will punch holes one after another on the path of this pipeline, and then divide the power belonging to Gnar from the holes they punched.
.”
Strange suddenly realized, and Loki continued: "In this way, almost not much power will be able to fall to the earth."
"What you said is a bit conservative." Gu Yi's voice came: "Based on the appetite of those participants, there will be no power that can be transmitted to the earth."
"But..." What Strange wanted to ask was, what benefits can humans get? And Ancient One seemed to see what he wanted to ask, and said directly: "The initiative now is in our hands, so we
It also has a very special right.”
"What is it?"
"We can decide where they cut the holes in the pipe."
Strange's eyes widened, he immediately understood what Gu Yi wanted to do.
To put it simply, this pipeline is docked from the Klinta star to the earth, with Nar as the output end and the earth as the receiving end.
Although this process cannot be explained by a simple three-dimensional space, one rule remains constant, that is, power is lost in the process from the output end to the receiving end.
This means that the closer the intercepted power is to the output end, the purer the intercepted power will be. The closer the intercepted power is to the earth, the more pure the intercepted power will be.
Asgard and the Earth teamed up to make a plan. Asgard sent people to widen the output end, and the Supreme Mage of the Earth was responsible for opening the receiving end. After these two parties controlled the exit and entrance respectively, they had the right to decide the row of seats.
.
The further forward the seat is, the greater the return will naturally be, but if you want good seats, you must naturally invest more.
And the most important thing is that the rules of this investment game have changed from equal distribution to auction.
You don’t have to sit at the front, as long as you are further in front than others, you also don’t have to be in front of everyone, as long as you are further in front than your opponents.
Ancient One smiled and said to Strange: "The next thing is to bid, they will be here shortly."
Strange shrugged and said, "Well, it seems that the staff at the Holy of Holies have to work overtime again."
Then, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.
"It seems that SHIELD staff have to work overtime again." In SHIELD's office, Schiller took the cigarette that Nick lit and said to him with a smile.
"Strange's call was very timely, but you should have guessed something in advance, right?" Nick asked him.
