Bifrost is cracked.
The cause of the cracking of this building that has stood Asgard for thousands of years is unknown. The only thing that is certain is that Li Congxin has an unshirkable responsibility in this matter.
Of course, Li Congxin will not shirk his responsibilities.
And it is not very troublesome to make up for this matter. After all, the bridge is just cracked, which poses a safety hazard, but it still does not affect its normal use.
In this case, repair is very simple. Li Congxin just lends Tesseract and lets Asgard use its energy to repair Bifrost.
During this period, Li Congxin plunged into Asgard's library and browsed the various classics collected by Asgard. As the only prince of Asgard, as long as he doesn't want to burn all the books in his collection, naturally no one will stop him.
What Li Congxin wants to learn is not Asgard's technology or magic, but to find something from these classics that can improve his strength.
Although he is now the prince of Asgard and has great authority under one person and over ten thousand people, no matter how you have power, how can you use this power if you don't even know the resources that can be called upon within your own power?
He maintained the status of Astral Projection until he found the information he needed from the books related to Asgard, and then he began to browse related knowledge about Asgard technology and magic.
Facts have proved that Asgard's technology and magic are not very helpful to Li Congxin himself or the development of the earth, and can only serve as a reference.
Take magic as an example. Not everyone can learn Asgar's magic. The bloodline and talent requirements are extremely high. If the bloodline is good enough, even if you are as stubborn as Thor, you can still master the powerful thunder. On the contrary, you will not be able to master those powerful magics at all.
The technology of Asgard complements magic. Many seemingly high-tech things actually have magic at their core.
If you don't know magic, these technological information will be useless even if you get them.
To sum up, Asgard is a country where people fight for their parents, because most of all the resources in this country are born with them. No matter how hard they work the day after tomorrow, it is difficult to overcome the barriers they are born with.
Such a social structure is certainly not conducive to development, but Odin cannot change this thing that comes from blood. Maybe this is the reason why Odin never really smiled again after drinking Mimir's Well spring water.
Bifrost's repair work lasted a day. That night, Thor took Tesseract and found Li Congxin in the library. "Uncle, Bifrost has been repaired, and my father asked me to return Tesseract... to you. If you want to enter the treasure house to select an artifact, or if you want to consult him for information related to the artifact, you can go to him directly."
Nodding, Li Congxin took Tesseract, and then said, "Please help me make arrangements. I'm going to Jotunheim tomorrow."
"Okay, uncle."
After responding, Thor still followed Li Congxin silently, looking like he was about to speak but hesitated.
Li Congxin put the book in his hand back on the bookshelf, looked at him doubtfully and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it directly. Mother-in-law and mother-in-law are not like your character."
Thor was immediately shaken when he heard this and said seriously, "Uncle Emperor, I want to ask you for some advice on how to be a king."
Li Congxin not only felt a little funny when he heard this. "I am not a king. You ask me this, but it is too difficult for someone to ask."
Unexpectedly, Thor shook his head stubbornly, and then said in a very firm tone, "At this time, my father entrusted me to ask you."
It's that old guy again, he's really going to cause trouble for himself.
However, seeing that he was quite generous, Li Congxin felt that it was worthwhile to worry a little more about this nephew. After pondering for a few seconds, he spoke again, "The word principle can be understood as two meanings in our Chinese understanding, one is Tao, and the other is reason."
"If you want to ask, I can only tell you that there is no way to explain this kind of thing. As the saying goes, Tao can be Tao, but it is very Tao..." Seeing the confusion on the latter's face, he could only wave his hands and said, "Anyway, you only need to know that Tao is fundamental, but it cannot be explained in words. However, I can talk to you about the truth."
Seeing the latter's teachable look like a good boy, Li Congxin nodded with satisfaction, and then asked, "You actually possess a rare quality, that is a kind of Haki."
Thor heard this and asked hurriedly, "Haki?"
Li Congxin nodded slightly. "Haki is divided into three types."
"Brave and courageous, resolute and resolute, you can give birth to Haki."
"If you are upright and unyielding, you can also give birth to Haki."
"One word and nine cauldrons, one call and a hundred responses, can also form Haki."
"You have the first two conditions to give birth to Haki. Whether it is because of your identity or other reasons, you can definitely achieve the third point if Asgard is gone. Even if Old Brother Odin is gone, you can still control the entire Asgard and make everyone willing to obey your orders. This is your Haki."
"With Haki, you have the most basic capital to become a king. If you are the king of Asgard, you are actually qualified now. But... what you need to inherit now is Old Brother Odin's throne is to be the overlord of Nine Realms, so with your Haki alone, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make Nine Realms...or the Eight Realms surrender obediently."
Li Congxin said that, of course, the Eight Earths are excluded.
After all, there are strong people like the Ancient One, Li Congxin, Captain Marvel, Tony, and Li Song's aunt on the earth, and they also have their own independent political system. It is impossible to let Thor show off his power in the past and reverse the course of history.
Thor naturally knows this, and he does not want his former comrades to kneel at his feet. He just hopes that in places such as the Kingdom of Giants and the Kingdom of Elves, no one will always jump out to cause trouble, and Nine Realms can maintain stability and unity. He is already very satisfied.
Hearing Li Congxin's words, he suddenly became energetic and asked, "So, what should I do specifically?"
"Do you think Old Brother Odin sent you to the earth just to teach you kindness and sacrifice?" Without waiting for Thor's answer, Li Congxin continued, "What you need now is just to learn some Art of Kingship. Many ancient kings on the earth did this very well, because they did not have strong personal strength, and it would be much more difficult to do the same thing."
"You can systematically study the history of various countries on the earth. If you don't understand something, you can ask Jane Foster to explain it to you slowly and see how those powerful kings on the balloon achieved their careers without strong personal strength."
After hearing Li Congxin's words, Thor's eyes suddenly lit up.
From Li Congxin's words, he accurately captured an important information, that is...
Finally, I can legitimately be with Jian Nu!
Moreover, this is a major event that is conducive to the peaceful reunification of Asgard and Nine Realms. It is not that they are not doing their jobs properly.
Hey hey hey...
Seeing the sullen expression on this guy's face, Li Congxin knew that all his previous words were in vain.
I've been talking about it for a long time, but you just remembered Jane Foster?
Patting the other party's shoulder, Li Congxin said helplessly, "Learning anything is not something that can be achieved overnight. I want to go talk to Old Brother Odin about the artifact first. What to do specifically, you can arrange your own time."
After saying that, Li Congxin left the library and went straight to the imperial garden where Odin was.
As for Thor, after instructing Heimdall to obey Li Congxin's orders, he couldn't wait to get on Bifrost and come to Earth again.
Fans on earth, I, Lei Jinjiang, am back!
Arriving at the Royal Garden, Odin expressed strong dissatisfaction with Li Congxin's deception of Thor's plan to go to the Earth.
Li Congxin expressed helplessness. What I told him was business. He could only choose one name from a lot of what I said and ignored the rest. What can I do?
Odin can only express helplessness about this.
He knows his son better than his father. He knows very well what kind of virtue Thor is. Over the years, it can be said that he has broken his heart, worn out his mouth, and exhausted his body. But Thor is still like a man whose nature is hard to change. Odin feels so miserable!
After getting rid of this matter, Li Congxin immediately changed the topic to the matter of the artifact.
Odin had previously promised him that the five artifacts were as compensation, so Li Congxin could take delivery of the goods now. However, when he asked Li Congxin what artifacts he wanted, Li Congxin named him a name that made Odin want to jump up and slap him.
"Gungnir!"
Regarding this almost unreasonable request, Odin said euphemistically, I'm not dead yet, but what's the harm in giving it to you before I die?
Later, Li Congxin, accompanied by Odin personally, came to Odin's treasure house.
In fact, the good things in Odin's Vault are definitely more than what is shown in the movie. As a former champion of the war sect, and one who has almost never lost a battle, he has collected at least dozens of artifacts.
After going through the selection, Li Congxin finally chose four artifacts: Orb of Agamotto, Tablet of Life and Time, Eye of the Sorcerer, and Ring of Draupnir.
As for the last spot, he exchanged it for one Star Core and a large number of Uru Metal.
Because compared to those ready-made artifacts, he still hopes to create an exclusive artifact that is more suitable for him. With the identity of Prince of Asgard, it is not difficult for him to do this, but it only requires some top-notch materials.
The value of Star Core plus Uru Metal is not much different from that of artifacts. Choosing them cannot be said to be a loss or an advantage.
After the previous battles, Miraculous Hands, Spring Returns has suffered a lot of damage, and it is time to consider changing to a different weapon.
