The food on the table was being consumed at a very fast speed. Xia Zhiye was concentrating on eating and drinking, and didn't seem to take Odin's words seriously.
In fact, deep down in my heart, I was constantly thinking about this matter.
When they were discovered, the two old guys chose to observe quietly.
And after I came out, they didn't shoot me to death right away...
Well, at least so far, these two powerful "onlookers" obviously have no intention of killing themselves.
Not only that, judging from Odin's previous actions, it was obvious that he was deliberately looking for trouble and then releasing pressure in order to completely condense the colorless energy in his body.
After using up the vast number of colorless crystals, Xia Zhiye felt that the colorless energy in his body seemed to have a limit, but he didn't know where the limit was.
Now that the colorless energy has become "colorless stones", Xia Zhiye feels that there is no limit to the colorless energy in his body.
As long as there are small colorless crystals, he can keep growing.
From this point of view, Odin at least treats him with kindness.
After weighing this information in his mind, Xia Zhiye felt a little helpless and hoped that this was not just his wishful thinking.
"We have been speculating about your origins."
Odin spoke after a while, as if giving Xia Zhiye time to think, and then he said, "But there is still no answer. At the same time, my old friend thinks that you may be the hope of everything, but you may also bring deeper despair."
“Eh hey hey??”
Xia Zhiye said quickly: "This is a misunderstanding. If you don't say such slanderous things, how can I bring despair?"
"The world... the universe..."
Odin stood up and said, "In fact, many things are already predetermined. This is true for me, or my old friend... But you are different. Everything about you is changing. Your future is uncertain at every moment. You may become the most terrible source of evil in the world, or you may become the savior of the world. All of this... comes from your heart."
"Um… "
Xia Zhiye blinked his eyes. Is it really okay to speak in such a vague way
"And the human heart is the most incredible and changeable thing in the world."
Odin said: "A long time ago, we saw the future, but we were never sure. Because those pictures were sometimes beautiful and touching, and sometimes horrible and heartbreaking. The mountains were collapsing, the universe was collapsing, the world was breaking, people died in despair and wailing, and the gods fell in the dusk..."
Xia Zhiye blinked, what does this have to do with me
"But since I found you, everything has changed..."
Odin said: "After that, you appeared in many scenes. But there are two extremes. Sometimes you are a fierce ghost holding a sharp blade, slaughtering lives. Sometimes, you are a hero who saves the world and saves countless lives. This is also a result that changes at any time. Fortunately, so far, it is something we can look forward to."
If this result turns out to be what you guys didn't expect, would that mean I've walked into a trap today
Xia Zhiye did not ask the question directly, but instead asked, "You were able to foresee so much, did you know that I would come here?"
"It's not that simple, but your coming doesn't surprise me."
Odin said: "You can be anywhere at any time..."
“… Haha, maybe I should thank fate for always keeping me busy.”
Xia Zhiye curled his lips.
"If you refuse, fate will bring you endless disasters." Odin looked at Xia Ye and said meaningfully, "But if you accept, fate will bring you unimaginable favors!"
"So what you're saying is, if I accept it, I can die at will?"
Xia Zhiye asked casually.
"yes!"
Odin said.
"… "
Xia Zhiye simply didn’t believe that the protagonist was the one who couldn’t die even if he wanted to.
"I have a question for you."
Odin suddenly spoke, his tone very serious.
This made Xia Zhiye feel that perhaps the next question was the key reason why Odin wanted to keep him.
Therefore, his expression became serious.
"What kind of person do you want to be?"
Xia Zhiye was stunned for a moment. What kind of question was this
He really wanted to sneer at such a question. Is it possible for him to decide what kind of person he wants to be
The surrounding environment, the things encountered, and different experiences shape different personalities, and these are simply not something you can control.
But for some reason, when I looked at Odin's only remaining left eye, I found it difficult to say these words.
He thought about it seriously, considering the possibilities, but ultimately found that he had no answer.
Just as he was about to say this, he heard Odin say, "Don't be in a hurry to answer. You can think calmly. But before that, if you are willing, can I ask you to do something for me? Of course, I can pay you what you need, for example, you can choose an item from the treasure house of Asgard to take away... something like that."
"Well, I want to go back to Earth, okay?"
Summer night blinks.
"Are you sure you want this?" Odin shrugged and said, "In fact, I am asking you to go to Earth to help me do something. If that's all you ask..."
"Wait, I think there are too many good things in the Asgard Treasury, it's okay for me to help you share them!"
Xia Zhiye immediately changed his tone and became serious!
"Very good, the agreement is reached."
Odin smiled and said, "I made a fool of myself yesterday. As you can see, my family is not particularly perfect. My eldest daughter... well, let's not talk about that. There are also many problems between my two sons. Thor is too simple and Loki is too complicated. Thor needs to go through some trials. During this process, I hope he can get your protection for the time being."
"good."
Xia Zhiye thought about it and agreed.
"very good."
Odin stood up, but his steps suddenly became a little unsteady. He sighed and said, "I'm old."
Then the old man who had just sighed suddenly appeared in front of Xia Zhiye, grabbed his wrist, and then flashed away and arrived in the hall of the Rainbow Bridge.
The golden-armored warrior was holding a sword in both hands, posing like this. When he saw Odin, he quickly saluted.
"Open the Rainbow Bridge."
The golden-armored warrior glanced at Xia Zhiye and thrust the two-handed sword in his hand into the core device of the hall. Amidst the lightning and thunder, the huge device began to rotate, and colorful rainbow light was born from it.
Xia Zhiye took a deep breath, looked at Odin, thought for a moment and asked, "What if I never have an answer?"
Odin fell silent.
Summer Night grinned and rushed into the Rainbow Bridge.
At this time, Odin raised his head, looked at the seven-colored rainbow light, and murmured: "Then perhaps, nothing will change..." (To be continued)
