Chapter 342: Packing the Small Garden, the Ancient One's Request to Steal Earth?
However, speaking of this, it seems it's not impossible; such honor, becoming the honor of the sun god, the master actually bestowed it upon me!
However, Hercules also had some worries; he worried that he couldn't fulfill the master's command, disappointing the master's expectations.
Can my light really illuminate the whole planet? The light and heat I unconsciously emit are naturally not consumed, but if I burn my flame at full power, its energy will be rapidly depleted.
He was very worried about whether he could actually become a sun god.
"Great master, I will naturally obey your command, but you also know my energy is not infinite; I cannot illuminate a planet like a true sun.
"At most I can illuminate it for a few months before my own energy runs out, even falling into sleep." Hercules said.
"You don't need to worry about this; my private space has already formed certain rules, and I will use those rules to replenish your energy." Luode said with a smile.
That day, he also thought of his private space, which had now formed a small plane; he could fully control all its laws, and naturally could also allocate part of those laws to replenish Hercules's energy.
"If that's the case, master, I willingly accept this heavy duty, becoming the sun of this space to illuminate this planet." Hercules took a deep breath and said firmly.
"You'll be a bit busy now; after your sister Sophienix wakes up, you two will work one day and rest one day, together serving as the sun." Luode said.
At this stage, it's naturally impossible to let Hercules work alone; after the phoenix completes its evolution, her energy level should also increase further, then they can take turns and have time to rest.
"Thank you for your trust, great master!"
Luode nodded, then activated his spatial ability, slowly pulling the entire Small Garden Planet into his space.
After a few hours, the Small Garden Planet completely disappeared from the Marvel Universe, floating in Luode's private space, occupying about half of it.
At that moment, Hercules also turned into a fiery red sun, flew to the planet's upper sky, and instantly illuminated half of it.
Warm sunlight again fell upon the planet; the animals and plants on the planet noticed nothing wrong, only feeling that the stars previously in the sky seemed to have vanished.
"Isn't this fine? Good, Hercules, you shall serve as this world's sun; if you really can't hold on, just tell me." Luode nodded, very satisfied.
At the same time, he mobilized the energy in his private space, giving Hercules an energy replenishment so he could continue illuminating the world.
"Great master, perhaps, perhaps I don't need you to provide energy support; the light I emit myself can illuminate this world." Hercules said delightedly.
He originally had little confidence in this task, but after absorbing his new sister's flame, its flame ability seemed stronger, and it carried a hint of immortality.
This allows it to form a perfect closed loop within its body, letting energy reach conservation without worrying about excessive consumption.
"I will still grant you the permission to replenish energy; when you lack energy, just replenish a bit.
"Your flame can illuminate half the planet; you must switch to the other side every twelve hours to illuminate it, understand?" Luode said.
Originally Luode thought, if Hercules couldn't bear this heavy duty, he would give him the defective chakra fruit intended for Sargeras to drink, boosting his vitality, but now it seems unnecessary.
The defective chakra fruit also couldn't boost it; Hercules had too much power, after all, its evolution relied on devouring flames.
In his private space, seeing the Small Garden Planet could survive normally, with no major issues to its life, Luode then left.
Then he opened the Spark Portal, directly returning to Asgard, appearing in the palace of King Odin.
At this moment in Asgard's palace were King Odin, Queen Freyja, Thor, the Four Warriors of the Sacred Palace, and Heimdall, all gathered here.
Besides that, Dwarf King Cui Fu and a group of dwarves also came to Asgard, and through some special means they brought the neutron star they had captured.
"Long time no see, Mr. Luode." Dwarf King Cui Fu warmly greeted Luode.
Luode also smiled and nodded; the dwarf people are very few, only over five hundred, they are Asgard's weapons suppliers; if the dwarf clan loses the protection of Asgard people.
Then in this universe many forces would eye them, making survival impossible, so they must leave together.
"You're back, Luode! Have you finished your business? If you need help, just speak up." King Odin nodded to Luode.
This Earth trip, Odin was very pleased with his son, finally giving up that Earth woman and successfully accepting her. This Blue Dragon Lady possessing strong vitality and eternal lifespan.
After heading to that Azeroth world, Odin plans to find time to visit the Blue Dragon clan and then discuss the matter of intermarriage between the two clans.
"Odin King, my affairs are already finished, thank you for your concern.
"Have you already gathered all Asgard's subjects? Are there any remaining Asgardians left in the universe?" Luode asked.
All matters are settled; Luode knows it's time to return; as for the Soul Stone matter, let's forget it for now and talk about it next time.
I'm not in a hurry now to extract the Cosmic Deity Clan from Earth's core; I'll wait until I become a true god, at least qualified to stand before Sargeras, then do this.
"There are still some Asgardians who haven't returned to Asgard's Sacred Palace; they voluntarily gave up their Asgardian identity.
"Wandering in this universe, among them is a Valkyrie who resides at High Heaven Venerable.
"There are also a few on other planets, and there is one Asgardian on Earth." Odin said.
"Not all Asgardians are loyal to his king Odin; for example, that Valkyrie wandering outside, the sole survivor.
"Precisely because I was dissatisfied with sending them to fight Hela, they betrayed Asgard; however, Odin also lacks the qualification to blame them, for sending them to fight Hela was indeed a suicide mission.
"And now I have forgiven Hela, even reinstating her as Grand Princess; if that Valkyrie returns, she would absolutely not accept this.
"Do you want to summon them back?" Luode asked. That Valkyrie from the Thor trilogy, whose combat strength even exceeds that of the Four Warriors of the Sacred Palace by a bit.
"No, they have chosen their own paths and have their own lives; let them stay in this universe, remaining as the last Asgardians here." Odin said.
"Alright then! Odin King, we now set out for the Azeroth world."
Luode nodded, then directly moved an island-sized Asgard entirely into his private space.
Asgard is just a giant island, even its size is comparable to a city on Earth.
The truly large thing is the dwarf clan's neutron star; that's the real big guy, Luode spent some effort to get it into his private space.
Fortunately this neutron star is tightly bound by the dwarf clan's machinery; otherwise its emitted shockwave could possibly destroy his own planet.
After completely incorporating all Asgardians and the dwarf clan into his private space.
Luode still needed to handle the Infinity Stones matter; Asgard was to follow him away, so the Infinity Stones could no longer stay with Odin, thus Luode had to choose another target.
First, let the Asura Path take this Soul Stone from his forehead; the Soul Stone was handed by Luode to the Ancient One for safekeeping, and Luode specially opened a portal to meet the Ancient One at the New York Sanctum.
"Ancient One, you should know why I'm here, right? Please temporarily keep these few Infinity Stones." Luode smiled and handed over the Reality Stone, Space Stone, Power Stone, and Reality Stone again to the Ancient One.
After gaining the confidence to survive, the Ancient One guarding these Infinity Stones posed no problem at all.
"You really do like to give me trouble, Luode!" the Ancient One sighed.
He helplessly took the four Infinity Stones; wondering if mistaken, adding the Time Stone, now only the Soul Stone is missing, he's quickly gathering all the Infinity Stones.
"As the saying goes, the capable bear more work; moreover, I collect Infinity Stones also to safely extract that Cosmic Deity Group from Earth's core."
"Originally these gems were stored in Asgard of the God King Odin, but now the God King is leaving with me, so I can only temporarily place them with you for now." Luode said.
"Luode! I have a question for you, can you answer me honestly?" the Ancient One suddenly looked at Luode and asked.
"Go ahead and ask! Ancient One."
"If you can take Asgard away, then can you also take Diqiu away, bringing the whole Diqiu into your world?" the Ancient One said.
Although this universe is their home, it is also a prison, even a testing ground; this multiverse itself was created by a group of immensely powerful beings.
The Ancient One precisely because she had enough of her so-called fate, enough of everything, wanted a thorough death, to end it all.
But the last time Azeroth, Sargeras, and Luode the three of them gave him new hope. And now, since Luode can take Asgard away, does that mean he can also take Diqiu away?
If the whole Diqiu were sent to another universe, then I would bid this world and this universe a complete farewell, never again having to worry about that so-called fate.
No longer would I have to deal with those people from the Time Management Bureau, nor deal with those super bigwigs running amok on the timeline! This would be a one-time solution, perfectly solving all of Diqiu's problems.
??? Ancient One, you're not joking, are you? You mean you want me to drag the entire Diqiu into my own universe?" Luode asked in great surprise.
Isn't that a mistake? The Ancient One actually wants me to intervene, dragging the whole Diqiu into. Azeroth world? If we count the dwarf clan's neutron star, Asgard's territory, and the Little Garden, plus the planet from Final Fantasy VII, the vicinity of Azeroth would become lively.
This I can do. In fact, I can do it right now, just need to return to the Azeroth world to unload the cargo.
Temporarily place the Little Garden planet beside Azeroth, then come back and pack up Diqiu to take away.
But the problem is, is Diqiu really that easy to pack up? Diqiu is a super time bomb.
No need to elaborate on how dangerous Diqiu in the Marvel world is; it even connects to many other-dimensional spaces, hosting all sorts of deities, even entities from the hellish plane.
Even if Luode were braver, before reaching multiverse level, he would not dare touch the Diqiu of the Marvel world; that would be outright suicide.
That's right, Luode! Can you do it? Tell me." the Ancient One asked.
Ancient One, I actually want to deceive you, saying I can't do it, but in fact I can.
However, I'm sorry, I cannot do that; I cannot bring Diqiu to another universe, this is the only thing I cannot do." Luode sighed deeply and said helplessly.
If you bring up any other request, I'll think of a way, but taking Diqiu away is truly impossible! 'This universe is very dangerous; even if a slight mistake occurs, this universe will be wiped out.'
Then it will reboot everything you know, even including me, and will be mysteriously destroyed.
This universe is the darkest world." the Ancient One said.
All fate is predetermined; there can be minor changes, but if too great a change occurs, the entire universe will be cleansed by some unknown force and then overturned.
She knows all this, but is powerless to stop it.
I'm sorry, Ancient One, the waters of Diqiu are too deep; I truly cannot do this for now, but I promise you that if one day my strength is sufficient, I will fulfill your request and take Diqiu away from this extremely dangerous world.
Finally, Luode chose to give the Ancient One a guarantee, but what level he needs to reach is hard to say; at the very least, it cannot be below multiverse level.
Thank you, Luode, these words are enough!
Luode nodded at the Ancient One, then tore through space, left the Marvel universe, and returned to the Azeroth world. (End of chapter)
