Chapter 137: Om Metal and Vibranium
In future S. H. I. E. L. D. works, the Destroyer's armor was recovered by S. H. I. E. L. D.
Since it would be a bargain for S. H. I. E. L. D., letting them pick up junk, why couldn't I pick up junk too? As for going head-to-head with the chief god of Norse mythology and occupying Asgard as a backyard.
Luode doesn't have this courage; when I become the big shot of the Burning Legion, I'll consider this then! "Do you know something? I always feel you can see some future things." The Ancient One looked at Luode and asked.
Previously going to steal the power of the Space Stone from the Tesseract, but ordinary people don't know that inside is the Space Stone.
The fact that I possess the Time Stone is unknown to outsiders, even my own disciples don't know, because this thing is called the Eye of Agamotto.
Also there's the matter of the Despair Virus, and my practicing dark magic; the Despair Virus thing is easy to talk about.
But my cultivating the power of the Dark Universe, absorbing magic from the Dark Dimension, only a few of my core disciples who betrayed me know this; other sorcerers don't know. No one would leak it, but he does know.
That guy in New Mexico is Thor, and he also knows Asgard's lineage; even through the power of timekeeping, he has seen many different versions of the future.
So I also know what junk Luode wants to pick up is— the Destroyer armor that Odin once wore.
All these reasons together make the Ancient One think that Luode should know something about the future, or have learned from some channel what might happen.
"Everyone has a few secrets, right, Ancient One?" Luode said with a smile.
The more mysterious I keep myself, the more the Ancient One will be wary of me; this is a very good check-and-balance method.
In the original comic setting, the Destroyer armor is armor forged by Odin together with all the gods of Earth to fight the Celestials; Odin wearing it doubled his strength, but the result was being thrashed by the Celestials. (Here I'll explain: the setting in the comics is the Celestials, a background setting that actually represents Marvel's editors incarnate; with the explosion of later comic plots, most importantly the development of Secret Wars, Marvel's overall cosmic power rose, making the Celestials worthless.)
Basically any boss of a big event can bully them, and the movie universe calls them the god race, a setting similar to the world spirit, especially like the titans in World of Warcraft.) But in the movie universe, Asgard's Destroyer armor is more like a combat robot; its combat power isn't great, and it can't even beat Thor.
Moreover after the war, Odin didn't choose to recover the Destroyer armor, so this thing probably isn't very strong.
"That armor's power isn't great; Odin once wanted to use it against some powerful enemies, but ultimately failed; if it gets damaged, it actually isn't of much use to you." The Ancient One said.
"I'm mainly interested in the metal inside. Om metal from the Aesir." Luode said.
In World of Warcraft there's Titansteel, Saronite, Felsteel, various top-tier ores, but compared to the Aesir's Om metal there's still a gap.
Weapons forged from this are truly bugged; whether it's Stormbreaker, Mjolnir, or Odin's Gungnir, the power is extremely strong, and they also have various special abilities.
"?? You actually still know Om metal? You think Om metal forged the Destroyer armor?" The Ancient One's mouth curled into a smile as she asked.
You idiot kid, you think Om metal is what? It's a special metal mined by the dwarves, with terrifyingly low output.
Even in Asgard, only the king and prince are qualified to possess; royal weapons forged from Om metal.
The Destroyer armor is not made from Om metal; otherwise Odin would definitely have recovered it to remake weapons instead of just discarding it.
Otherwise, do you think S. H. I. E. L. D. -level technology could really melt this armor?
Even in the universe, only the dwarves, using a forge made from a neutron star, can melt Om metal.
"Anyway, it's definitely better than those mundane metals; I'll take it back, no problem." Luode said.
Anyway I haven't reached true god level yet; I don't want to think about Om metal for now, but anyway the Doomsday armor is also top-tier material, at least it's taken a few hits from Thor's hammer.
"That's fine; if you're determined to get this armor, go take it! But absolutely do not interfere in the matter between the two princes, and do not show yourself—this concerns their fate and also the future development of the universe." The Ancient One said.
Whether it's Loki or Thor, they are both crucial links for this universe; absolutely no slip-ups allowed.
Even in the future, Loki will become the God of Time.
"Don't worry, Ancient One, I just want to take the benefits, not cause trouble." Luode said.
"Then I'm relieved; actually if you want good metal, I can give you some vibranium." The Ancient One said.
Vibranium? All right! As Earth's guardian, basically the Ancient One is top-tier combat power; if she really wanted it, she should be able to get it, and Wakanda's successive kings, the Black Panther, should also know the Supreme Mystic exists. Moreover, unlike Om metal, vibranium's production is still plentiful, its defensive power is also strong— at least Captain America's shield can block Thor's hammer.
Thinking like that, Luode even wants to go empty out the whole vibranium mountain range; besides vibranium, Wakanda actually has other good things, like a certain heart-shaped herb.
"Then we've agreed; next time you bring life magic over, or other worldly fun stuff, I'll get you some vibranium." The Ancient One said.
"Eh! I thought you had some ready here!" Luode said with a smile.
What the heck? I thought you had some ready here!
You bastard kid, you wouldn't be trying to freeload, would you? When you dealt with me before, it wasn't a trade—it was straight-up threatening me.
You give me nothing, yet you want me to use personal connections to beg Wakanda?
"I get it, Ancient One; actually I now have some little trinkets, like this stone, which can very well heal injuries—as long as you're not dead, it can treat them." Luode said, then directly used his fel magic and made a soul forge on the ground.
This device's effect allows all teammates to craft a healing stone through it, limited to thirty people.
"This, this, this is made by your evil magic? Does this magic also have the ability to heal injuries?" The Ancient One looked at the soul forge before her and said.
"Of course, although it's evil magic, the developer absolutely did it to protect the world; besides, there are many very practical spells." Luode said.
"Thanks! I don't want to study these; don't bring out this stuff. As long as it isn't this evil magic, or something made with its power, I can trade with you." The Ancient One said.
Sometimes evil magic will show you its good side, then gradually tempt you into using its power to learn this spell.
For example, power from the Dark Dimension can let a sorcerer quickly become stronger, even gain eternal life.
"All right! Then Ancient One, I'll take my leave." Luode smiled, waved his hand to open a portal sparkling with sparks, and stepped through.
"Goodbye, Mr. Luode, I hope you can keep the promise. Although this is just a verbal agreement, I still choose to trust your character." The Ancient One said.
"Hehe! Trust your own judgment, you haven't misjudged anyone." Luode said after that and closed the portal.
"Is the Supreme Mystic really a being from another space or dimension?" After Luode left, a man appeared before the Ancient One and said.
"Mordo! That's right, he indeed comes from another dimension, but he's not some evil demon god." The Ancient One said.
"Supreme Mystic! Didn't you teach us we shouldn't compromise with evil forces? But why?" Mordo wanted to speak but hesitated, then said.
"I really did say that, but this person isn't an evil force; he belongs to the type that can communicate. If communication is possible, then occasionally making some compromises is actually not unacceptable." The Ancient One said.
This disciple of mine was originally the outstanding heir, even should have been the true choice for Supreme Mystic, but his heart has some extremism, and the future I've observed isn't great either.
I gave him several tests, but in the end none yielded satisfactory results.
"All right, Mordo, go teach the new disciples spellcraft; they are the future of Kamar-Taj, I've been busy all night and I'm a bit tired." The Ancient One said.
"Yes, Supreme Mystic, I'll go teach the new disciples now." Mordo said.
The Ancient One nodded, saw off her disciple leaving, then closed the door to her room.
Afterwards she chanted a spell, and a scene appeared before her— exactly the New Mexico scene, at which time Asgard's four warriors had already descended to Earth.
is currently meeting with Thor Suo Er, and Loki from the Asgard direction has also begun his own action.
"Please don't interfere in the matter between the two princes, outsider Mr. Luode."
"At this time, Luode also arrived in New Mexico."
