Chapter 166

After a stage of punishment passed, the voice sounded again.

"Because the player obtains a five-color stone alone, as a system reward, part of the mana can be released, but only on the ground. The group unlocks one off-site assistance, and the assistance method is not limited. Please seize the opportunity."

"Since there is an opportunity outside the court, why should we be punished? Can't it be directly offset?"

"This system has clear rewards and punishments. All operations have their own rules and cannot be generalized. Therefore, rewards and punishments cannot cancel each other out."

"Four five-color stones can only be unlocked once for off-site assistance, which is really generous." Hela said in a cold tone.

"The next five-color stone will make players face more complicated tests. Only unity can make you win the final victory. I wish you good luck."

The system talked about him from left to right, and did not respond to Hela's sarcasm. After saying this hint that was equivalent to nothing, it resumed its silence. It seems that this state of punishment is not over yet, at least Sol's is not over, other The three of them had already vomited enough.

As night fell, the desolate Changyou Mountain became more and more gloomy and cold, and it didn't take long to rub your arms to keep warm.

Ao Jing slightly warmed her hands, and a green charm appeared in her palm as she wished. She slapped the charm into the ground with her backhand, and several saplings about the size of a bowl's mouth quickly grew out of the barren soil.

This is her original spell, as Qinglong's innate ability, and this system really gives priority to unlocking this part of the authority.

Driven by Ao Jing's thoughts, the fresh and wet saplings quickly withered and became dry firewood that could be used for burning. This scene seemed as if they had passed through hundreds of years in three seconds, as if someone was manipulating time.

Sol uprooted the few saplings and piled them on the open space between the four of them. Ao Kyung flipped his hand again, and a small golden lightning jumped out of his palm, splitting towards the firewood, and instantly ignited a flame .

With the bonfire, this side of the world suddenly warmed up.Ao Kyung and Loki stuck together, while Sol and Hela took their respective sides, staring at the jumping flames in silence.

After recovering part of their mana, their physical fitness was much better than before. However, since the ownership of Wang Wei in Asgard had not yet been determined, when their physical fitness improved, the original conflicts resurfaced and even became more intensified.

Loki doesn't intend to succeed, so Ao Jing is an outsider in the struggle for power. The two of them sit between Hela and Sol, and they both feel that there is a faint murderous flow between the two.

"Go hunting, I'm hungry."

Just when Hela's figure moved and seemed to be about to stand up, Ao Jing suddenly diverted everyone's attention.

"This barren mountain, where did the prey come from?"

"Although there is no vegetation in Changyou Mountain, there are many wild animals. It would be the best if you can catch a deer." Ao Jing curled his lips, "I don't want to eat Changyou, although it is a specialty."

Changyou has a monkey face, she can't do that, and even if she kills her, she can't talk about it - ever since she became friends with Sun Wukong and Yang Jian, let alone monkeys, she keeps a respectful distance from even dog meat.

Asgardians don't understand Changyou, they are basically not picky eaters, and Hela, who has been fighting all the year round, is even less particular. Her standard is to be able to eat. If you are in a hurry on the road, even raw and cooked are secondary.She hadn't thought of attacking Saul at first, but after being interrupted like this, she even felt a little hungry—after all, the snacks she ate just now turned into rabbits and ran into the mountains, and eating them was for nothing.

"I'll go with you." She stood up, her ink-colored battle clothes flowing darkly in the firelight.

"I'll go too." Loki also wanted to get up, but was held back by Ao Kyung. "What are you going to do with so many people? You are watching the bonfire here, so as not to be extinguished by the beasts chasing the light."

"Can……"

"You are not familiar with the place, and it is useless to follow. The two of us are enough."

Ao Jing's tone was gentle, but he pressed Loki's hand secretly with a little force. The man looked up at her worriedly, and she only shook her head slightly, then let go of her hand.

"You look at the bonfire, we will go back as soon as we go."

Loki had no choice but to sit back and watch Ao Kyung and Hela walk into the deep mountain.

"Are you really relieved?" Sol looked at Loki with some worry, "Hela doesn't seem to be able to get along with people in harmony, isn't Ao Kyung still injured?"

"Don't worry about the two of them for the time being, Hela still seems to be very sensible... If something happens to Ao Jing now, it won't do her any good." Loki poked the fire with a wooden stick, and the firewood crackled There was a crackling sound, heat climbed up his arms, the warmth was also scorching.

After this sentence was finished, the two long-lost brothers were once again surrounded by silence. They hadn’t sat face to face alone for a long time. Sol remembered that the last time they talked like this was in the Avengers Building for Loki. There was a quarrel about Gad.

They hadn't had the chance to be alone since then, and when Loki was locked up by Odin, they were still standing with his queen and guards.

Sol is actually not used to this suffocating silence. He really wanted to liven up the atmosphere between himself and Loki like he did in the Avengers, but he opened his mouth and didn't know what he should say—it seemed that except for them There is no other common language other than the love affair in the atrium.

Even Loki doesn't feel that they have a common language. He praises his lover very much. He can show off her all the time but carefully hides her in his palm so that others will not take it away. It can't compare to Ao Jing's hair. Discussing this will only make Jian innocent receive merciless ridicule.

Although they broke up, Saul still has the demeanor of defending his predecessor.

"During this time...uh..." He still couldn't help breaking the silence, but his tone was a little awkward, "Thank you for solving those problems."

"What's the problem?" Loki twitched the corners of his mouth and casually patted the sawdust on his hands.

"You know, it's Badr and the others..."

"Oh." Loki nodded, "When they launched an attack, Ao Kyung happened to bump into them."

"Is it...that's bad luck, no, I mean, luckily she got there in time."

Thor heard Loki laugh inexplicably, and suddenly felt that he had said something wrong.

"If you don't know what to say to me, it's actually good to keep silent." Loki rested his chin lazily, even in such a lazy posture, he still looked very elegant, "We are all used to this Isn't it the way to get along?"

"...Actually, I want to apologize to you about those things before."

He really didn't pay much attention to this younger brother, or in other words, because of too much attention, he became prejudiced, which caused Loki's path to go further and further.If he hadn't met Ao Jing by accident, I don't know what the situation between their brothers would be now.During the years when they grew up together, he always used the rules on the battlefield to judge Loki's actions. This is undoubtedly not Loki's style of acting. high.

But now that I know I was wrong, it seems too late.

He lowered his head and looked at his feet in annoyance.

Loki looked at Sol's face full of frustration, and couldn't help but want to laugh a little. Even without magic, he could completely see through Thor's thoughts, which gave him a sense of accomplishment, but in his heart he felt that this achievement It's ridiculous.

"You don't need to apologize."

Thor heard Loki's fluttering voice, raised his head and bumped into those green eyes.

"What happened before, no matter how much I apologize, it has already happened. I am indeed a vengeful person, but I don't want to care about it anymore." Loki rubbed his palms. After leaving Ao Jing, his body temperature was lower than before. , "As for Asgard, you actually don't have to worry about your wording inappropriately. I am indeed 'helping you' take care of Asgard and take a lot of risks for you, but you don't have to feel guilty or moved, because all of this It is conditional."

"Is this... father's promise?"

"If it wasn't his promise, wouldn't you plan to fulfill it?" Loki raised his eyebrows.

"No...whether it's my father...promised before my death, I will accept your conditions. I just want to know what he talked to you at that time."

"He didn't have anything to talk to me about at that time, you know his character, and you know mine too." Loki lowered his eyes to avoid this topic.

"Well then, what's your condition?"

"What do you think it would be?"

This question was suddenly thrown to himself, which made Sol a little dazed, he had never been able to figure out what Loki was thinking.

"Uh...you know I'm not talented at negotiating, so let's just say it...whatever you ask for."

"Ah."

Loki smiled, but he couldn't tell what his tone was, and then he said slowly: "You don't have to worry about my lion talking too much, I only have one condition."

"?"

"I want you to do one thing for me after you ascend the throne."

Loki's tone was indifferent, as if what he said was not shocking to the world.

Asking a king to do something for himself, even without specific content, is a promise that is never ending without the addition of "forever".

"Of course, I agree 100%, anything goes."

However, Sol nodded readily, which surprised Loki.

"do you agree?"

"This is the favor I owe you. Now, am I still a person who can't see anything?"

If there is no Loki, no matter whether Odin is on the throne himself, or he has given this position to others temporarily, he will not have his share of the throne.Loki can fully grasp the opportunity of Odin's abdication, and thus completely control Asgard as king, but he returned this position to himself. This alone is already a huge favor.

And if Loki hadn't run out of the dungeon, his mother would have entered the Hall of Valor by now, and Baldr and Tyr would have tossed Asgard to pieces, and he was in the atrium without even knowing what happened.Ao Jing once again saved Asgard under Hela.

He couldn't repay the favors accumulated in these big events, or he didn't know how to repay them. Loki himself raised it, which made Sol feel relieved-he was afraid that he would do something wrong and offend his brother. Conflict between.

"Aren't you afraid that I will make excessive demands or exploit some loopholes?"

"I know you won't." Thor looked at Loki's emerald green eyes, his sea blue pupils were as clear as ever, which made him look very sincere and calm no matter what he said.

"As you can see, I have accepted my identity as a frost giant, and I will go back to inherit the throne of Jotunheim." Loki looked away uncomfortably, but his posture was still calm.

"Jortunheim?" Sol was stunned for a moment, "You want me to send troops to help you regain the throne?"

"No, no, that's too boring, and it won't make me love at all." Loki chuckled, "Fabiti is dead, and I'm his only son. Laufey can't stop me from inheriting the throne. No one will take my throne, and I don't need to find foreign aid."

"But you..."

"Even if they don't trust my position, I'm still the rightful king of Jotunheim, just as my mother still considers me her son no matter how much I fight you. Jotunheim has few left I'm a living person, they have no way to stop me, and they can't stop me, Lau Fei will be more inclined to hand over the throne to me, rather than waiting for someone to annex them."

"Then what do you mean?"

"I want to establish permanent and effective diplomatic relations with Asgard. From now on, Jotunheim and Asgard will be on an equal footing, and I will no longer have to obey God's Domain."

Loki considers himself a hostage captured by Odin, and the people of Jotunheim will therefore think that he is a traitor cultivated by Odin. From this point of view, the status of the two countries is not equal, especially before When attacking Jotunheim, one could see Fabuti's fear and retreat towards Odin.He believed that the frost giant would not back down in the face of the war, and Fabuti's forbearance was partly due to his scheme and partly due to his fear.

If Jotunheim and Asgard can finally turn their fights into friendship, not only can the status of the frost giant be improved, Asgard can be turned from an enemy to an ally, but also some other forces can dispel the idea of ​​making trouble, and they can feel at ease Come down and develop some projects that promote the country's economy, such as mining, agriculture, industry, etc. After all, the frost giant is also a very powerful force in the Nine Realms, and the capital of the country was once prosperous, but the perennial war made the country become that ghost. look.

"……that is it?"

Sol was a little dumbfounded, he didn't expect Loki's request to be so simple, easier than he thought.

"What do you think I'm going to do?"

"Um... I thought you wanted some...spiritual compensation?"

"Oh!" Loki raised his eyebrows, "You reminded me. Of course, during my reign, all the income of Asgard's countries was mine, including the offerings of dependent countries. I was locked in a dungeon For so long, I helped you solve the national crisis, this is the reward and compensation I deserve, isn't it?"

Asgard can be said to be the richest country in the Nine Realms, and the income in a day is quite considerable. Sol has been away for so long, and the value created by this country is enough to create a country out of thin air, and Loki is quite economical. Under his leadership, given him a period of time, he could even replicate a similarly prosperous God's Domain, so the condition he proposed was very astronomical.

But Saul didn't hesitate.

"Okay, the value you create should be reaped by you. If Jotunheim needs weapons, you can also get them from the Asgard arsenal, but don't use them to hit us." Sol laughed and teased.

"Are you kidding? The weapon craftsmen in Jotunheim are the strongest besides Nidavellir. They never lack weapons." Loki rolled his eyes and threw a pebble at Sol. There was a light "da" sound on the hard armor, "With a monkey face on it, does the brain degenerate confidently?"

Loki's distasteful tone reminded Sol of the scene when they bickered when they were children. He couldn't help but laugh out loud with his eyes bent, not at all angry at Loki's sarcasm, but the latter glared at him, and after a while the corners of his mouth curled up .

"I won't be in Asgard in the future, so don't be stupid again."
