Marvel: Ned the Mystic Mage

"Odin, pray that your heroic soul may find eternal life in the Halls of Valor."

"Great sacrifices should not be mourned, but should be accompanied by joy, for those who sacrificed their lives."

In the dungeon of Sakaar, Thor, who was about to usher in the championship battle that would scare everyone on Sakaar, was silently praying for Odin alone.

Suddenly, Thor felt familiar magic fluctuations coming from behind him, and couldn't help but turn around.

Sure enough, Loki, who looked like he didn't recognize him before, was standing behind him.

To be honest, he didn't expect to see Loki here, let alone that Loki would become the guest of Gao Tianzun, especially when he was a criminal himself.

However, when the surrounding environment quieted down and Thor was left alone to think about the past few days, Thor couldn't help but feel a little angry at Loki.

Although Queen Frigga had made it very clear that Loki was not to blame for Odin's death, in Thor's opinion, Loki's manipulations on Odin must have played a role.

Otherwise, with Odin's majestic divine power, coupled with some secrets from the universe stored in Asgard, it would be absolutely easy to extend Odin's life for hundreds of years.

"It's heartbreaking, isn't it? Finding out that you were deceived and everything was fake."

Loki didn't seem to notice this, and was still trying to "help" Thor in his own way. Well, it was actually just to fool him.

Seeing Loki talking about him, Thor looked around, and finally picked up the gravel that fell from a stone man at hand and threw it towards Loki in front of him.

"Snapped!"

A crisp sound echoed in the dungeon, and as expected, the gravel penetrated Loki's body and hit the top of the dungeon.

"You don't think I'm just here to see you, do you? Come to a shabby place like this."

Seeing that Thor didn't want to talk to him, Loki said with a smile.

But Thor didn't even look at him. He just picked up the gravel at hand and threw it at Loki.

"You mean you don't need my help?"

Seeing Thor's attitude, Loki felt helpless and said, "Listen, I can't destroy the relationship between me and Gao Tianzun. I spent a lot of effort to gain his trust."

"He is a madman, but he can be exploited. What I want to tell you is that you can join the ranks of Grandmasters with me."

"Then something might happen to him soon, and then you and I..."

Loki said, making a move that would succeed his plan.

However, what disappointed Loki was that after hearing his great plan, Thor only had a mocking smile on his face, and he kept picking up the gravel at hand and throwing it at him casually.

"You don't really want to go back, do you?"

Loki's expression changed and he said seriously: "Our sister easily defeated you who tried her best. You are no match for her. Do you understand what I am saying?"

Thor still kept a mocking smile on his face, listening to Loki's "inner words" without answering.

"Can you say a word?"

Finally, Loki couldn't stand Thor's appearance anymore and couldn't help shouting: "Speak!"

"What do you want me to say?"

Thor still had that smile on his face and said: "You used your conspiracy to take away Odin's power, caused Odin's death, and released the goddess of death. What else do you want me to say?"

Thor's words aroused the emotions in Loki's heart, and completely made Loki lose interest in continuing to chat with Thor.

But in the end, Loki looked at Thor seriously and said, "Listen, I have never seen that so-called champion warrior."

"But according to the information I received, that guy was extremely barbaric and cruel."

"I'm betting big on your opponent tomorrow, don't let me down."

After listening to Loki's words, Thor finally couldn't bear it anymore and angrily picked up the beer bottle next to him and threw it at Loki.

"boom!

"

The wine bottle penetrated Loki's body and fell to the wall, breaking everywhere. Loki's figure gradually disappeared, and he only glanced at Thor at the last moment.

No one noticed that there seemed to be crystal tears in Loki's eyes just now when he ruthlessly told the information about the champion warrior.

That's because I'm worried about my brother.

"boom!"

Hearing the sound of breaking beer bottles, the stone man Korenger hurried over and kicked the wall hard. At the same time, he shouted angrily: "Get away, monster!"

At the same time, Loki completely disappeared.

The stone man who kicked the ball in the air looked at Thor innocently and said, "He suddenly disappeared."

……

"Did Ned say when he would be back?"

After the meeting, at night, Stark and Strange stood side by side in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the base, each holding a wine glass. Looking at the calm starry sky, Stark asked about Ned's return date.

"I'm not afraid of your jokes. During the meeting during the day, I seemed to be sure of victory, but in fact I had no idea at all."

"That guy can kill Thor in an instant, and with all my preparations, I'm not sure whether I can even deal with Thor."

Listening to Stark's words, Strange looked at the starry sky through the glass expressionlessly and said: "No one is absolutely sure, we can only do our best."

After saying that, Strange paused: "Ned will come back as soon as possible. He will go to the universe to find treasures that can defeat Hela."

"What treasure? Doesn't he have the Infinity Stones? Aren't the Infinity Stones said to be the most powerful force in the universe and can they deal with Hela?"

Under great pressure, Stark frowned and said: "Strange, don't be pretentious at this time. What treasure is Ned looking for? Can the Infinity Stones solve Hela? How many do we have? Chances of winning?"

"Stark."

Strange looked at Stark expressionlessly and said: "The Infinity Stones are indeed the most powerful force in the universe, but because they are so powerful, the energy is inherently hidden when they are formed. How much it can be used depends on the user's ability."

"With Ned's current ability, using one Infinity Stone alone is already his limit,"

"Now even with special props like the 'Infinity Gauntlet', multiple gems can be used at the same time,"

"But considering Ned's own strength, he still cannot exert the full power of the Infinity Stones."

"If the power of a gem can be fully stimulated, then any one of the infinite gems is enough to deal with Hela."

"As for what treasure Ned is looking for, do you know about Ragnarok?"

As he spoke, Strange gradually changed from looking towards Stark to turning his back to Stark. The moonlight shining from the window reflected Strange's back, showing his masterly demeanor.
