Chapter 3702: Doomsday (Part 6)
But on second thought, Loki felt that this matter wasn't without benefits. The large pile of demons and monsters on Earth, although not very safe for Asgard, were even more dangerous to outsiders.
The division of forces in interstellar civilization is actually very simple. The most advanced civilization in an area is the lord. For example, the Shi'ar Empire is the lord of that area, and all other civilizations whose level is not as good as theirs belong to the subjects. Major events such as how this area develops are decided by the lord, but local matters are basically decided by small groups of subjects. This is actually similar to the structure of the Nine Realms.
Which direction the Nine Realms should go is decided by Asgard. But Midgard is basically decided by Earth, and places like Vanaheim are about the same. It can be understood as a more primitive version of the enfeoffment system.
And in the enfeoffment system, when the Son of Heaven is in trouble, the vassals must come to support. You haven't heard of anyone attacking the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven still sending troops to protect the vassals. Asgard can do this because they are strong enough, and the vassals are too weak. If they don't protect their own subordinates, they are more easily broken one by one, weakening their strength.
But now, haven't these vassals come? Although the vassals coming to the capital to serve the king pose a certain threat to the king, if a great enemy is at the door, the pressure relieved is obviously more than the threat posed. Solving the foreign enemy first is the key, and how to make the vassals leave later can be discussed then.
Then why is Earth coming better than just people coming? Because Earth is much more fragile than the demons and monsters on Earth. If only the Avengers or mutants came, it would be unreasonable to say that the people sent by the three great empires threatened them. No matter what, saying that the words and actions of the diplomatic envoys sent by the three great empires threatened Magneto's personal safety is a bit of a stretch.
But if it were said that their warships were too close to Earth, threatening Earth's safety, that would be very reasonable. There were still billions of ordinary people on Earth who would shatter at a touch. Not to mention your warships approaching, the moment you entered the Asgard dimension, you already threatened Earth's safety. Who knows if the electromagnetic radiation produced by your warships would cause any impact on the lifespan of our fragile ordinary people?
If you want to say "So fragile, then don't come," you can also legitimately refute: "We have newly built a planetary-level super-light engine, coming to have a close encounter with our dear brothers. What does it have to do with an outsider like you?"
Loki and Thor quickly figured this out, and smiles immediately hung on their faces. Thor walked up and hugged Captain America, then said: "Welcome, my brother. I didn't expect your technology to advance so fast; this is truly a great happy event worth celebrating. Although the Xiangong has prepared a sumptuous banquet tonight, that is just to wash away the dust for you. I think both Asgard and Earth should hold a grand celebration to commemorate the official meeting of the two civilizations. What do you think?"
"Of course." Steve smiled, "This is the first time the vast majority of the people of our two civilizations have seen each other with the naked eye, which is truly a major milestone in the exchange between civilizations. We should send a delegation to participate in each other's celebrations. What do you think?"
"That couldn't be better." Thor's smile deepened, "Such a major event worth celebrating cannot be known only to us two. I think we still need to send out invitations widely to invite major civilizations in the universe to witness this grand occasion. Loki, you go write the invitations as soon as the banquet tonight is over, and try to send them out by tomorrow morning. Tell them it's best to arrive before tomorrow night, and the celebration will start early the day after tomorrow."
Loki saluted and said: "As you wish, God King Majesty."
Then these three people followed Thor back to the Xiangong first. The Xiangong did prepare a banquet, but it was just an ordinary reception banquet, everyone sitting at the table eating meat, drinking, and chatting. Because Thor had to prepare for the celebration and other matters, Loki did the reception. Both sides also ate and drank their fill, then returned to their homes to prepare for more important matters.
As for how the Asgardians viewed this planet that suddenly appeared above their heads, it could only be said that this group of gods was indeed a bit thick-skinned. They didn't feel there was anything wrong with this at all, and were especially happy, feeling that they finally had a satellite.
The Asgard in the universe where Shiler is located is not a planet; it can be called a celestial body, but it is not spherical; it is one empty island after another connected by divine power. Asgard is the name of this dimension, and the Xiangong is the largest empty island. This kind of celestial body cannot be said to be unique in the universe, but it is basically very rare; only very extreme civilizations would turn their mother planet into this appearance. Asgardians have conquered the universe for so long, and they also know that their hometown is different from others; that kind of spherical celestial body is the majority.
Although they love their hometown very much, they sometimes envy those civilizations that possess spherical celestial bodies, mainly envying the satellites on the edge of the spherical celestial bodies. How beautiful are a few small balls revolving around themselves. But because of the special nature of the empty island structure, it is unlikely that a satellite will be born in another tens of thousands of years.
But now it's good, they have a very beautiful satellite. Earth's beauty absolutely ranks high among all planets in the universe. In the universe, blue planets are not rare, but the blue of most planets comes from the extremely cold climate, the blue is relatively light, and because there are no clouds, the surface pattern is not so complex, looking relatively monotonous. Most gas planets are earthy yellow, and planets with land are mostly brown and red. Planets like Earth, which look blue, green, and white from afar, with many and complex colors, and are also easy to form various mysterious patterns due to the existence of clouds, are very rare.
Moreover, because Asgardians are gods, their eyesight is particularly good, even if they are far away, they can see the busy little people on Earth. This is simply a large dynamic screen saver; you can sit there and watch for a day. This is really experiencing the fun of being a god.
On the night Earth arrived, Loki felt that Asgard was exceptionally calm. It wasn't like this a few days ago; Asgardians were always poking their heads outside their offices, either asking where they would be sent to station troops, or asking when they would fight the three great empires. It was impossible not to be annoyed.
But Loki had no way, Asgardians only had these things in their heads every day. The gods didn't need to go to work, and every day except for training was going to the drill ground to fight. When they were free, they thought about where to kill and how many. It had been like this since ancient times, and Loki couldn't change it.
He also thought about getting some entertainment activities for the Asgardians to consume their energy. But the gods were really not suitable for sports; you couldn't let them take a planet as a ball to kick, right? And no matter what activities this group of reckless men engaged in, they would eventually evolve into fighting. Loki gave up after trying a few times.
Unexpectedly, watching Earth really became an entertainment activity that could make Asgardians quiet down. Although Earth came at night, Asgardians hadn't gone to sleep yet. Seeing such a fresh thing added above their heads, they immediately called friends and found an open space to move a small stool, and started watching while drinking.
You say who researched this little thing? It's really quite interesting. Being able to overlook global humanity from such a far place is basically equivalent to infinite style, infinite types of TV series. It just so happens that humans and Asgardians look about the same, and the behavioral logic and so on are not much different, so they can understand it. This is really too interesting.
Loki finished his work for the night, and as soon as he came out of the Xiangong, he saw that the square at the door was full of people, everyone looking up. Loki also looked up, and Earth was performing the rising from the east and setting in the west.
Asgard has no Sun, their day and night are maintained by the light system of the divine power shield. That is to say, there is no Sun in the sky, at most you can see some glowing light spots. It's really a bit unaccustomed for Loki to see something rising from the east suddenly.
He also couldn't help but look at Earth. His eyesight was also quite good, and the key was that his hearing was also not bad. Just as he listened carefully to the New York side, he heard Strange say to Shiler: "You didn't go yesterday, you don't know, Loki's expression was so wonderful, his eyeballs were almost falling out of his eye sockets! I've never seen him have such a surprised expression! Hahahaha!"
"Hiss..." Loki took a light breath, looked left and right, and then roared, "Heimdall! Heimdall! Open the Bifrost! I want to go to Earth!"
"Sorry, our new moon is very fragile, only for looking, not for touching." Heimdall's voice sounded from above, the tone sounding a bit numb, obviously not knowing how many people he had replied to, "If you really want to go up and see, go find the Prince and apply for a quota for the exchange delegation... oh, Prince, it's you. Are you going on official business? I'll open the door for you..."
Loki sighed, still waved his hand and said: "Forget it, you find someone to drive the ship, we have to go to the Ring Star District to send invitations..."
In Asgardian culture, there is the concept of the Moon, and even a Moon Goddess. This is a concept left over when they lived on Earth. Because they have a long lifespan, this is not considered a very distant era, and many Asgardian elders have seen the Moon on Earth.
Although it is a bit strange to call their former hometown the Moon, since Earth calls itself that, they quickly accepted this concept and treated Earth as their Moon. It's just that I don't know if Earth runs away again one day, can they accept that they have no Moon again?
As for the ordinary people on Earth, they have no feeling about moving. On the one hand, the magical defense network protects them airtightly, and on the other hand, the jump time is too short. Basically, it was dark for a moment, and then it was bright again. When jumping, many areas were originally night, so for them, it was just the Moon suddenly disappearing for a moment, and then reappearing. But the disappearance of the Moon is not a strange thing; Khonshu had made the Moon disappear several times before, and the videos taken were still spreading wildly on the Internet, and most people were not surprised.
If you have to say it, the one who received the biggest impact is probably the astronomer. After such a moment, astronomy no longer exists, and the arrangement of all stars is different from what was studied before. However, starting from scratch means there are more papers that can't be finished. In a sense, it can be considered a good thing.
The most important thing is, of course, the upcoming celebration. Both sides are preparing intensively. The ones going from Earth are definitely the strongest batch of people, and the competition on Asgard's side is relatively fierce. Basically, all the new generation wants to go to Earth, Loki was so annoyed by them that he had no choice but to fill them all on the first round list and let Thor pick them himself.
Thor hesitated when he saw the number of people written on the front of the list, looking at Loki and stopping.
"Loki, I can understand that those strong people on Earth are so close to us, it is indeed a threat. But I don't think it's necessary to send troops so early, right? And mobilizing an army of 10,000 people at once, will the three great empires really not suspect that we are going to attack their capital?"
"I'm not going to send troops." Loki said helplessly, "There really are so many people who want to go."
"But this is almost the number of all our main forces. Send them all to Earth, then who will defend Asgard?"
"Earthlings." Loki spread his hands, "You said it yourself, tomorrow that group of humans from Earth is also coming. With them here, who would dare to find trouble with us?"
Thor opened his mouth, but didn't know how to refute. Loki shrugged again and said: "Our army at least listens to your orders, that group of humans is lawless. And many of them explode at a touch. Anyway, the one who should have a headache is definitely not us."
Thinking of the faces of the envoys of the three great empires before, and their possible encounters after meeting that group of humans, Thor couldn't help but laugh out loud. Loki also laughed, and the two looked at each other, both seeing pure happiness in each other's eyes.
