Although Asgard's buildings have Nordic-style spiers and sloped roofs, generally speaking, they prefer the beam-and-column structure of the ancient Greek architectural style.
In terms of color matching, it tends to be in the Baroque style, with rich colors and luxurious temperament, dominated by large areas of gold.
Especially the Golden Palace where Odin lives, it is glittering, luxurious and brilliant.
Following Thor into this majestic palace, Mu Chenxing saw the god-king Odin, who was wearing an eagle helmet, golden armor, holding the eternal spear Gangnir, and sitting on the supreme throne.
The God-King is not a self-proclaimed one, nor is it the Asgardians enjoying themselves behind closed doors. It is the consensus of the nine worlds and many civilizations.
Tens of thousands of years ago, the Asgardians were called the gods. Thousands of years ago, Odin led the Asgardians to ravage the entire universe. Thousands of civilizations were destroyed. Anyone who could kill the Asgardians
All weapons can be labeled as gods-killers.
The strength of Asgard can be seen from this.
More than a thousand years ago, Odin gave up the route of conquest and hegemony, retreated to the Nine Realms, and began to retire to this private land. But for thousands of years, his name still resounds throughout the universe.
The energy in this god-king with white beard and hair is surging and surging, and every fluctuation demonstrates his power, but his cells are already very old.
If there is no life limit and energy continues to accumulate, it will inevitably become an existence like Kesha, the King of Gods.
"Young man, you have grown up very quickly, and another Supreme has been born in Midgard. But greed for knowledge is not a good thing, and you will pay a very high price."
"Dear God King Odin, I am not greedy, but I want to kill the fear in my heart." Mu Chenxing answered the God King's comments seriously.
"Kill the fear in your heart? You have found a good way to become stronger." Odin sighed with emotion, remembering some old events: "When I was young, there was a period of greed, and I wanted everything.
, trying hard to pursue powerful power."
He felt some phantom pain in his right eye, and he warned with sincerity: "I paid a lot of money to understand some truths. Power is just a tool, not a pursuit. And being fearless is not brave. Young people,
You still have a lot to learn, and you can't just focus on powerful forces."
The prophecy of Ragnarok has been confirmed. That day is coming, and the day when he will sleep forever is not far away. He is very worried about whether Thor can rebuild Asgard. Maybe his son needs some friends, just like he once did
I also have a few good friends.
He doesn't mind using his life experience to give guidance to young people.
Maybe this is the old man, I am really old, Odin sighed in his heart.
"Thank God King for your help. I will keep your warning in mind." When receiving help, you should express your gratitude in person. This is the truth. As for the advice, Mu Chenxing will think about it seriously, but everyone's situation is different and their goals are different.
Not every word must be obeyed.
He didn't want to continue talking about greed, so he changed the topic and asked: "God King Odin, do you know about the dimension demons? I have read some records about this, but I still can't figure out their existence. They are
High-dimensional life?”
"Not entirely." Odin looked at the young guests and his two sons, and seriously popularized some ancient knowledge for them: "Dimension Demon God is just a general term, and the differences among them are still very big.
There is a supreme god that spans the multiverse, and even all time and space. Eternity, death, infinity, annihilation, and devouring are such existences.
Some are ancient gods and demons who have mastered certain laws and occupied certain dimensions.
For example, Sithorn, the god of the underworld, is also known as the Great Shadow or the God of Black Magic. He is one of the many ancient gods. He also created the Dark Book that records chaos magic.
The beholder Shumagoras is an ancient demon with supernatural power. He ruled multiple dimensions in the era of chaos hundreds of thousands of years ago. He is able to expand his influence across dimensional barriers.
There is also Seratok, the Lord of the Crimson Universe; the three major lords of hell: Mephisto, Black Heart Demon, Lucifer; and the trinity of Emperor Weishan, all belong to this level.
They are consistent with what you call high-dimensional life.
But some are not counted, such as nightmares. He just created his own domain: the nightmare world.
There he is almost invincible and can pull sleeping creatures into his domain world, manipulate the dreams of these pulled creatures, and even absorb energy from the target's dreams.
But he is only so powerful in his own domain. In the outside world, he can be defeated, but he cannot be completely destroyed.
Dormammu, the King of Darkness, is worse than Nightmare. He is just a mage who picked up the dark dimension and transformed into a life form. He is not invincible.
There are also special beings like the Fire Giant Surtur, it is not difficult to defeat him." At this point, he paused, and he was very confused. The book of prophecy recorded that the Fire Giant Surtur would destroy Aspen.
Gard, Ragnarok is inevitable.
But, just Surtur?
Apart from being unable to kill him completely due to his life form, what the hell is this giant of fire? Odin felt that he could kill him with just one hand.
His eternal fire has been deprived of him, so what can he do to destroy Asgard?
I really can't figure it out.
"This kind of life is not considered a high-dimensional life." Odin lost the desire to tell and made a final summary, warning: "Dimensions are very mysterious, and it is difficult to study and understand them. Don't be addicted to them, and you must stay awake.
.”
Thor doesn't care. He only loves his hammer and has no interest in dimensions or demons.
Loki thinks a little too much. His magical attainments are not low, but the more he understands magic, the more he understands how powerful the Dimensional Demon God is. It is so powerful that he does not dare to fight against it, and even does not dare to study it in depth for fear of being scared into madness.
After listening to Odin's classification, Mu Chenxing recalled the relevant information he learned at Kama Taj, and increasingly felt that Marvel's magic system should belong to the post-magic era.
Aren't most of the dimensional demon gods the forerunners of magic from ancient times?
They opened different magic systems, understood the relevant laws, occupied the ownerless dimensional world, or created corresponding magic worlds and fields, becoming existences at the top of the pyramid.
Latecomers can only follow their path forward, borrowing their experience and strength, and will never find a chance to surpass them, because all the paths to the top are occupied.
"So Asgard's magic system all uses Asgard's energy? This can actually be regarded as a magic dimension? Is that so, God King Odin?" Mu Chenxing asked.
"You are very smart, young man, but this is not a magical dimension, because none of us have been able to understand the new laws yet. I say this, do you understand?"
"clear."
Of course, I understand that the existing laws have been understood and occupied by the dimension demon. Unless new laws are created, Asgard can only stand still.
There is no way out for magic. At least it is difficult for magic in the Marvel system to reach its peak. There are people on it, and they are all awesome beings who have understood the rules. To surpass them, it is more difficult than reaching the sky.
The cap is stuck.
Odin's power has already surpassed that of the third-generation gods and is close to the level of the fourth-generation gods, but he just cannot live forever. Asgard's magic system prevents him from taking that step.
This is the dilemma that Marvel's magical civilization faces. Either become a slave to others, or get stuck in the realm of mortals.
This made Mu Chenxing give up the idea of learning magic in depth. It would be half the effort and not cost-effective. Marvel's magic only requires a brief understanding of it, knowing what it is, and not turning a blind eye when facing the enemy.
He had the idea of learning magic not because he wanted to change the power system. Science and magic are not opposed, nor are they opposed to technology such as fantasy and fairy tales.
You must know that science is just a method, a self-correcting method based on a rigorous logical system that uses empirical evidence to verify, analyze and discover natural laws.
It is a knowledge system for studying, exploring, and understanding the laws of change of all things in the universe.
Although magic, fantasy, and immortality seem to be unscientific in many ways, this is not an opposition, but rather that the logical system of those systems has not yet been summarized and cannot be understood using existing scientific thinking.
Just like primitive people cannot understand the technological products of modern civilization and will regard them as magic or miracles, there is not much difference in essence.
After all, any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
"Can I borrow some books? In exchange, I am willing to cooperate with you in repairing the Rainbow Bridge." Although he was a little frustrated, Mu Chenxing still wanted to learn the magic of Asgard. The magic here is not a loan from Kama Taj.
The system, especially rune magic, is of great reference value.
He originally regarded this thing as a kind of technology, but found that the existing scientific logic could not interpret the copied runes, and could only be classified as a magic system.
Odin shook his head in a funny way. The Cube seems to be mine, right? But he left it in Midgard for more than a thousand years, and he didn't bother to argue with this child.
He just warned: "The Cosmic Cube is one of the six original stones, and there will be many people who want to snatch it. Since you decide to hold it in your hands, you must protect it and don't use it to do evil things. Can you promise me
?”
He is looking for a free Rubik's Cube Guardian.
Mu Chenxing nodded solemnly: "I am not afraid of trouble, and I am not a person who advocates killing or plundering. I will not use it to do evil."
"Okay, then I also promise you that Asgard's library will be open to you. Thor, take your friends to rest. Loki, you have committed an unforgivable crime, go to the dungeon to repent.
"Odin waved his hand, indicating that everyone could retreat.
Thor wanted to plead for his brother, but under Odin's gaze, he obediently bowed and resigned. Mu Chenxing naturally followed him out of the Golden Palace, and the palace guards also escorted Loki to the dungeon.
The Golden Palace is located in the center of the Eldavar Plain. After walking out of the Golden Palace, Thor took Mu Chenxing to his palace, summoned the warriors of the Immortal Palace, and held a banquet to honor him.
Then he took him to visit the Vangolf Hall, which is where Asgardians learn knowledge and collect books.
"You even teach the Cree language?" Mu Chenxing was really eye-opening.
Asgardians have all kinds of courses, from planting, hunting, animal husbandry, medicine, philosophy, art, to various alien writing, melee combat, flying spaceships, etc., you can learn whatever you want.
Of course, magic is the most important discipline, but fighting is the most popular.
"There are many subjects. It depends on your interest. You can learn what you want. I studied knowledge for a hundred years before I was allowed to join the army." Thor told Asgard's teaching method, which is to love learning but not to learn, but it requires elites.
Very high.
"I don't think you look like you have been studying for a hundred years? You don't have the temperament of erudition at all." Mu Chenxing was flipping through the books in the library while teasing the muscular man next to him.
"I like fighting, but I'm not very interested in other aspects. When I was very young, the teacher who taught me fighting skills was no match for me." Thor told the story of his great achievements as a child with great pride.
He patted Mu Chenxing on the shoulder with a silly smile and said, "Let's go. I'll show you the way today. The guardian magic also recorded your breath. Just come here by yourself tomorrow. I need to go to Muspelheim for inspection."
That fire giant territory in the star field."
"Need help?"
"Of course, you have to use the Rubik's Cube to send me there."
The two walked out of the Vangolf Hall while chatting, visited the surrounding area, and then went back to rest.
Turning around, he first sent Thor away with the space gem, and then Mu Chenxing followed Heimdall to start the work of repairing the Rainbow Bridge.
The energy channel of the Rainbow Bridge leads directly from the Golden Palace to the surrounding sea area. It is made of high-quality magic crystals. The turbulent energy flows in the bridge body and shines with colorful light, which is particularly beautiful.
Its operating principle is to use Asgard's energy to build a subspace tunnel, and then shoot it through the natural wormhole network into the planetary ground in each star field.
In a very short time, the army can be sent to any place in the nine realms and can be picked up at any time. The energy used to build the space tunnel is very large. If it shines on a planet for a long time, it can even destroy the planet.
.
The Rainbow Bridge is not only a device for interstellar transportation, but also a star-destroying weapon, which is extremely important for shocking the Nine Realms.
Thor broke off a section of the bridge deck located at the front subspace launch pad. Mu Chenxing and Heimdall were not needed to repair the bridge deck. They had to use the power of space gems to connect the operating end of the Rainbow Bridge to the wormhole network.
, and complete the calibration of each coordinate.
This is an extremely tedious project, especially since Heimdall's operating tools are his big sword Bultsteel and his brain.
Can't you just get a computer?
Mu Chenxing is not used to this super slow proofreading process, but many of the spatial coordinates of the Nine Realms are Asgard's secrets.
He could only scan the structure of the Rainbow Bridge while cooperating with Heimdall. The damaged bridge body made many protective magics useless, and also allowed Mu Chenxing to obtain a lot of interesting data.
