The Lion of Asgard

Asgard.

The brilliant sunlight shone down.

The various buildings radiated dazzling brilliance, resembling fairytale castles.

Mountains, rivers, forests, and waterfalls are scattered throughout the area.

A long, stained-glass bridge, shimmering with rainbow colors, spans the two banks.

The gatekeeper god, clad in golden armor, Heimdall immediately opened his eyes and saw the Mystic Portal that had appeared out of thin air.

The crows hanging high in the sky, with their bright and lively eyes, also reflected the face of the Sorcerer Supreme.

Then, the crow spread its wings and glided between the skyscrapers, directly entering a magnificent golden palace and standing before its owner.

They stood on his shoulder and whispered to each other.

He conveyed everything he had seen and heard to him.

Odin!

He was a majestic figure with gray hair and beard, his right eye covered with a layer of gold leaf, and his face full of majesty.

Even as time passed, his divine power remained undiminished. As long as he was in Asgard, he was the true Omnipotent Skyfather, possessing inexhaustible energy!

"Ancient One... is here?"

Which Sorcerer Supreme is she?

"They even brought a young mage with them, trespassing into my Asgard."

"What do they think Asgard is?"

Odin's single eye shone brightly.

He had always harbored resentment towards this unorthodox Sorcerer Supreme!

The Sorcerer Supreme, how could he possibly draw upon the power of the Dark Dimension?

Then, with a wave of his hand, the Eternal Spear, radiant with light and shimmering with a golden glow, was in his grasp!

A magnificent Viking armor instantly enveloped his body, adding to his imposing aura and divine power!

As the Lord of the Nine Realms and a member of the Prehistoric Avengers, he had long mastered the Mystery of the universe, and even his use of Rune Magic was unparalleled.

Although Odin is old, his prowess remains undiminished!

Now.

He was preparing for the coronation ceremony of the new king, where his eldest son, Thor, would ascend the throne!

Just then.

The Sorcerer Supreme arrived in Asgard with a young sorcerer.

This inevitably made Odin suspicious.

Has the Ancient One already found a suitable successor?

"Heimdall."

"Get Thor back quickly."

"He can't be absent today."

Odin murmured softly.

But it quickly reached the ears of Heimdall, the god of gatekeepers.

Heimdall nodded.

Immediately activate your all-seeing ability and begin searching for Thor's whereabouts.

Kick.

Clang, clang, clang.

Team after team of Asgardian Guards, clad in sharp armor, stood solemnly in formation, and maintained strict discipline.

They immediately blocked the way for the Sorcerer Supreme.

"The Ancient One?"

"Please stop!"

A burly, corpulent Viking warrior, wielding a giant axe, had a sharp look in his eyes, conveying both awe and wariness.

He naturally recognized the Ancient One's identity.

However, due to the prejudice of the King of Gods, the people of Asgard displayed a terrible attitude!

Moreover, Asgard's status is far higher than Kamar-Taj's!

Kamar-Taj.

It can be considered a top-tier power in the Midgard, transcending worldly affairs.

But in the Nine Realms, it's the same!

After all, the Mystic Arts Mage of Kamar-Taj are almost all mortals, unable to withstand the passage of time.

The Asgardians, on the other hand, could easily live for hundreds of years!

When the Asgardians arrived in Midgard, even a mere stonemason could rival an army; they were simply incomparable to ordinary people!

"It seems..."

"Even the Ancient One's influence is useless in Asgard!"

Chen Ji thought to himself.

He truly hadn't expected that the Sorcerer Supreme's visit to Asgard would turn out like this.

Then he checked the other party's Entry Panel.

How does the Asgardians Entry Panel differ from that of Earthlings?

[Name]: Volstagg

[Identity]: Lion of Asgard

[Entry]: Decathlon (Blue), Rarely Defeated (Blue), Immortal (Purple), Innate Divine Strength (Purple).

[Decathlon] (Blue): He is an outstanding and well-rounded combat elite, proficient in almost all types of melee weapons, and ranks first among the Warriors Three!

[Rare Defeats] (Blue): As an outstanding melee fighter, he has an overwhelming advantage in boxing, swordsmanship, archery, and other fields.

[Long-lived species] (purple): Volstagg is strong and robust, ages extremely slowly, and has a resistance to disease far exceeding that of ordinary people.

[Born with superhuman strength] (purple): He can lift a 10-ton object with his bare hands, and his appetite is also ridiculously large.

Hiss!

Two blue and two purple entries?

A sharp glint flashed in Chen Ji's eyes.

The Asgardians's Entry Panel is far more elaborate than that of the Mystic Arts Master!

Neither Baron Mordo nor Kaecilius have almost any Purple Entry!

This shows that...

The Asgardians are truly gifted!

Even the other Asgardian Guards almost all have one or two Green Entry!

This sight horrified Chen Ji.

He fell silent for a long time.

"Volstagg."

You seem to have gained a lot of weight.

The Ancient One smiled.

They were already used to the rudeness and barbarity of the Asgardians, and remained unperturbed by praise or criticism.

"Strong?"

"Hahaha."

"You have good taste!"

Volstagg burst into laughter.

He was mocked by Fandral and Hogun more than once for being so fat he was unrecognizable.

The Sorcerer Supreme from Kamar-Taj, yet he mistakes fat for strong?

This made him beam with joy.

My mood has improved a lot.

"That's natural."

"It is indeed presumptuous of me to come to Asgard."

"However, there was no malicious intent."

"It was only my disciple who mastered Rune Magic through Rune Stone."

"I would like to ask Odin for some advice."

Ancient One's smile was gentle.

This made Volstagg frown, an incredulous expression on his face.

"Rune Stone? Rune Magic?"

Are you sure?

Volstagg's eyes flickered, and he immediately looked at the young mage beside him.

A strange light flashed in his eyes.

Indeed!

The young mage exuded an aura of Rune Magic!

This terrified him.

You need to know.

Rune Magic.

It is a closely guarded secret of Asgard.

Throughout Asgard, only Odin possessed all the Mystery of Rune Magic, while the Rune Script that circulated among the common people remained unfathomable to anyone.

This young mage actually managed to decipher the Rune markings on his own?

This thought came to mind.

Volstagg's eyes immediately lit up, and a smile spread across his plump face as he went straight to greet Chen Ji.

"Young mage!"

"I'm sure His Majesty Odin would be very happy to see you."

"Perhaps we can take him as a disciple!"

Asgard.

"It's much better than Kamar-Taj!"

"Perhaps the Warriors Three will become the Warriors Four!"

Volstagg was incredibly enthusiastic.

This left Chen Ji completely bewildered.

"What?"

"... Become Odin's disciple?"

"I?"

Chen Ji glanced at Ancient One and noticed that her smile was stiff and her hands were clenched tightly together.

The next second.

The Ancient One once again regained her detached demeanor, as if her earlier actions... were all an illusion.

"May I have your name?"

"List?"

"Great name!"

"I could tell you were extraordinary at first glance!"

Volstagg put his arm around Chen Ji's shoulder, and escorted by the Asgardian Guards, they slowly approached the magnificent city complex ahead.

Along the way.

He kept initiating conversations with Chen Ji, trying to subtly probe into Chen Ji's true intentions.

Stroll along the clean and spacious main road.

A colossal palace, towering into the clouds and gleaming with gold, was shaped like a pipe organ and situated in the very heart of Asgard.

This is the 'Golden Palace'!

The place where Odin and the Queen of the Gods lived.

Odin stood before the door, his figure imposing, holding Gungnir, the Eternal Spear, his single eye radiating a chilling aura, looking down at the Ancient One and Chen Ji.

His facial expression conveyed both authority and arrogance.

More often than not, it was pure rage!

Ancient One.

To him, they were the youngest of the young.

If it weren't for their past relationship, Odin would probably have hurled the Eternal Spear the moment the two set foot in Asgard!

After all, the Ancient One's act of trespassing into Asgard was tantamount to illegal intrusion!

Chen Ji, mustering his courage, began to examine Odin's Entry Panel.

This glance had a significant impact.

His eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

Newbie here, asking for votes!
