Chapter 169: The Past and Future



Chapter 169: The Past and Future

The risk was great, but the rewards were even greater!

If he went to Asgard and helped Odin educate that reindeer, he would be able to choose a treasure from the God King's treasury. This kind of good thing was hard to find in the entire universe!

Whoever rejected it would be a fool!

Moreover, even if Odin was an old fox, he couldn't betray him in front of Sorcerer Supreme.

Seeing Lod agree, Odin was not surprised at all. Or rather, it was already within his expectations. After all, he had even brought out the treasury. He believed that even in the entire universe, not many people would be able to refuse him.

"Since that's the case, then I will wait for you in the Immortal Palace." The burning golden flames in the Destroyer's eyes suddenly dimmed a bit, and his voice carried a hint of exhaustion that could not be wiped away.

Regarding the Odin's Sleep, Lod actually knew a bit about it.

Odin's Sleep, which happened once a year, lasted for a week each time. It was the power that Odin had accumulated in his body for a long time and became too powerful!

If he did not balance the power of Odin in his body, then the overly powerful divine power would instead consume the lifespan of Odin.

Therefore, splitting a spiritual body to descend was already the limit for Odin. If he forcibly woke up to save the scene like in the original drama, it would make this Allfather whose life was like a candle in the wind speed up the little remaining lifespan he had left.

Hu ---

As Odin's will dissipated, the Destroyer lost its support and fell to the ground with a loud bang.

The long-lost system prompt sounded:

[Ding ---Emergency Mission: Whetstone(Completed) ]

[Reward: zanpakuto - Gonryōmaru! ]

[obtained: Bankai - Kōkō Gonryō Rikyū! ]

Although Lod now wanted to feel whether this zanpakuto, who was buried in the original work, was as powerful as Captain-Commander evaluation.

But when he thought that Sorcerer Supreme had not left, Lod could only regretfully give up this idea. He turned to look at the smiling Ancient One and said, "Ancient One, we meet again."

"This is the second time we've met."

Ancient One looked at him with interest and praised, "You grew up very quickly. I remember that you weren't this powerful when we last met. This is very good."

"Thank you for your praise, Venerable One."

Lod smiled, but in his heart, he was thinking, what exactly did Sorcerer Supreme mean.

The things he did, logically speaking, should not be able to hide from the eyes of this mage. However, not only did she not take action to enforce justice on behalf of the heavens, she instead looked like she was looking forward to seeing you. This made Lod somewhat puzzled.

Ancient One's eyes revealed a hint of admiration that could not be concealed, and she smiled, "You should be able to reap a lot of things when you go to Asgard this time. You don't have to worry about what Odin will do to you. I have an agreement with him."

"Uh..."

Lod frowned slightly and felt even more strange. Wasn't Sorcerer Supreme's attitude towards him a little too good?

There was no such thing as good or evil to you for no reason in the world. He firmly believed this.

Although he did not know what Sorcerer Supreme had said to Odin, it was obvious that it was because of Ancient One that Odin changed his mind and threw out the reward of the treasure house to him.

But... why?

The more Lod thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. As Sorcerer Supreme, Ancient One had an eternal backer behind her and even the three of them as one did not put him in his eyes. Why did she have to favor him so much?

It could not be that Ancient One planned to kick Stephen Strange and let him become Kamar-Taj, Sorcerer Supreme instead, right?

Impossible!

"Venerable One, forgive me for being blunt..." Lod hesitated for a moment before deciding to ask her directly, "You... Why are you helping me?"

Ancient One smiled and said, "Because I admire you, so I helped you. Is that okay?"

"But..."

Lod paused for a moment, glanced at Ancient One, and continued, "I believe that what I have done can not be hidden from your eyes. Since that is the case, why do you still help me?"

Hearing this, Ancient One smiled and said, "What do you think my duty is?"

"The magical dimension overseer protecting the Earth so it is not invaded," Lod said.

"That is one of the reasons."

Ancient One said lightly, "What you did, did it involve the invasion of the magical dimension?"

"No." Lod shook his head. He was not so capable.

"Then why should I care?"

Ancient One looked at Lod strangely and said, "If I have to care about this kind of thing, then there are too many things on Earth that I have to care about. Do you think Sorcerer Supreme is a policeman?"

Lod pondered for a moment and felt that what Sorcerer Supreme said was very reasonable. He asked again, "But in the eyes of ordinary people, people like me should be considered as an evil person, right?"

Ancient One chuckled and said, "The view of good and evil in the eyes of ordinary people is no different in the eyes of people like us. It is just that the angle we stand on is different. Of course, this is just an example."

"What you have done has not crossed that line, and it does not involve the invasion of the magical dimension. In that case, why should I care about you?"

"What the mage said makes sense." Lod smiled and said, "But you still hasn't told me why he helped me."

Ancient One smiled without saying anything.

"It seems that you doesn't want to tell me the reason." Lod sighed helplessly. Talking to this kind of person was tiring and always secretive.

Ancient One reached out her hand from the yellow robe and held up the eyeball-shaped ornament hanging on her chest. "One day, you will know the reason. There are some things that I can't tell you because it will disturb that future."

"I understand what you mean, Venerable One."

Lod raised his eyebrows. From Ancient One's movements, he seemed to already know a little!

"If you have time, why don't you come to Kamar-Taj for a seat?"

Ancient One smiled and opened the dimensional door with one hand, slowly stepping inside.

Facing Sorcerer Supreme's invitation, Lod could only bite the bullet and say, "Next time, definitely next time."

The moment the dimensional gate was about to disappear!

"I forgot to tell you..."

Ancient One suddenly looked back and said meaningfully, "Time is not a straight line, but a disorderly node. While I am spying on the future, there are people who are spying on me in the past."

Sizzle---

The orange-yellow magic door disappeared, leaving behind a dumbfounded Lod.

What did that mean?

When Venerable Ancient One was spying on the future, there were still people who were spying on the past from the future. There should be very few people in the universe who could do such a thing, right?

Could it be that Ancient One wanted to use this to remind him that something big would happen in the future regarding 'time'?
