Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely-Chapter 995 - 800: Abundant Harvest_4
Chapter 995: Chapter 800: Abundant Harvest_4
The thing that left Tao Yu somewhat speechless was that, even though this guy seemed to be on the verge of death with little time left...
When he entered his slumber, his energy had shockingly continued to increase, albeit slowly!
"Truly a race blessed by the World Will. His Majesty Odin likely fell into his slumber primarily because his power was too immense."
This thought made Tao Yu want to look up at the heavens in exasperation.
So it was because his internal power was too overwhelming that he fell asleep?
It’s even possible that Odin’s longevity limit is tied to the expansion of this power.
Unable to suppress it, and on the verge of bursting? Could this slumber be a form of self-chosen release?
"As I suspected, even if I wore the Destroyer and faced Odin wielding the Eternal Spear, it’d probably be an even match at best."
Tao Yu sighed heavily.
In truth, [Destroyer] was most fitting to be used by Odin himself—its destructive power, dyed with enchantments, and unleashed through Odin’s terrifying divine strength—just the thought made Tao Yu’s scalp tingle.
In Odin’s prime, wielding the Eternal Spear and donning the Destroyer, his combat power would have increased exponentially.
Fortunately, he’s an ally!
That thought gave Tao Yu a certain sense of relief.
With Odin guarding the Nine Realms in his idealistic stance, and his benevolent ruler mode after aging, Tao Yu considered that when he awakened later, they might be able to use Asgard’s power to acquire other Original Stones from across the universe.
"I can sense His Majesty Odin’s soul fluctuations becoming increasingly active. Perhaps it won’t be long before he awakens."
Tao Yu said earnestly.
He had come originally just to see if he could help wake Odin—another huge favor owed, no doubt.
But if Odin were lacking in life energy, Tao Yu could have bluntly and forcefully injected it.
Yet in this case, it wasn’t appropriate. Absorbing or injecting was unsuitable—it was better to let Odin adapt naturally.
It’s just like the immunity mechanism of the human body, far superior to medicine in most cases.
"Let’s hope so."
Frigg had hoped Tao Yu might have a way, but seeing the situation now, even a Supreme Mage might be helpless.
"The Queen of Gods knows I now possess Agamotto’s Orb, along with the Agamotto’s Eye. There’s something I must say, but I don’t know if it’s appropriate."
Tao Yu paused for a moment and addressed Frigg.
Agamotto was one of the trinity of the Vishanti, and the first Supreme Mage—his power was beyond question.
The relics he left behind held unparalleled magical properties.
It was through Agamotto’s Orb that Odin foresaw Ragnarok.
Frigg was aware of this.
Thus, when Tao Yu mentioned holding both Agamotto’s Orb and Eye, Frigg’s expression turned serious.
At this point, Tao Yu had more than earned their trust.
"Please speak, Master Jack."
"I have always been accomplished in divination."
"Yes, I heard from Sif that it was through your divination that Thor was found. Otherwise, the consequences could have been dire."
Frigg still felt a chill at the thought. Without Tao Yu’s help, if more time had passed, Thor might never have returned!
"And now, I’ve glimpsed a part of the future—regarding Loki."
When Tao Yu mentioned Loki, even though he wasn’t Frigg’s biological son, a look of worry flickered across her face.
"That child, Loki, while mischievous, isn’t inherently bad."
"Yes, I know this too. But I foresaw that if he doesn’t endure a trial, there’s a chance he might spark a calamity that sweeps across the entire universe."
Tao Yu’s words made Frigg’s face change instantly.
A catastrophe affecting the whole universe?
This...
If it were Loki, it wasn’t entirely out of the realm of possibility.
Looking at some of his recent antics, it was clear his appetite for trouble was large—he would do anything he found amusing, regardless of consequence. Classic irresponsible troublemaker.
Yet his abilities weren’t insignificant. If he really caused a disaster, it would make complete sense.
For example, trying to open the Abyss!
This thought made Frigg’s expression harden.
"I understand. Loki has done many reckless things since the Divine King fell asleep. While his actions don’t warrant death, some punishment is indeed necessary."
"If the Queen of Gods cannot bring herself to act, I can handle it for you."
"Very well, I’ll leave it to Master Jack."
Frigg sighed, torn by reluctance, but as the Queen of Gods, she had to make tough decisions.
She wasn’t someone who trusted easily and always treaded carefully.
But towards Tao Yu, there was hardly any suspicion.
He had saved Thor, saved Heimdall, explained the Abyss, was the future Supreme Mage, and was even favored by the Thunder God’s Hammer.
Such overlapping credentials were more than enough to earn the requisite level of trust!
Between Tao Yu and Loki, the choice was obvious—Tao Yu.
In their eyes, Loki was too mischievous and filled with lies.
Tao Yu originally planned to deal with Loki himself, but with Frigg present, and Thor to consider...
After seeing Asgard as a potential ally, he decided against doing anything that might strain their relationship.
Not only did he communicate with Frigg, but Tao Yu even approached Thor...
...
"He did what?! No way, I’m going to teach him a lesson!"
Thor, having just downed a barrel of ale, was a bit tipsy and ready to confront Loki, hammer in hand.
Only to realize his hammer was still with Tao Yu, leaving him momentarily embarrassed.
"Since I’ve taken on this responsibility, it’s better for me to handle it to avoid any unforeseen problems..."
Tao Yu, holding Agamotto’s Orb in one hand and Agamotto’s Eye in the other, delved into a bout of divination, predicting the ideal location.
The Original Stones were tied to the core of the cosmos; while Tao Yu couldn’t complete a divination directly in this world...
He could still outline the situation enough to determine where to push Loki for the greatest benefit to himself...
...
"Wait, what are you doing? Oh, Supreme Mage, I taught you illusion techniques, remember? You even called me a genius!"
On the Rainbow Bridge, Loki backed away step by step, staring at Tao Yu marching towards him with the hammer like some ax gang boss, trembling in fear.
This was someone even Thor, the dumb big guy, obediently listened to.
"Nothing much, just escorting you on your way. After all, you made a mistake and must face the consequences."
"I brought you back to Asgard! I atoned for my crimes! I bled for Asgard!"
Loki roared in desperation.
"Mother! I want to see Mother!"
But before he could finish, the Thunder God’s Hammer in Tao Yu’s hand had already flown out, knocking Loki off the Rainbow Bridge and sending him hurtling towards the unpolluted roots of the Tree of the World.
With the double blessings of Agamotto’s relics, the divination confirmed—this stance and location were optimal...
"Loki, we will meet again. Let’s hope that time isn’t too far away."
Tao Yu stood atop the Rainbow Bridge, gazing down at the falling Loki with a faintly meaningful smile.
Before returning with the Mind Stone, perhaps he could first try to confront the Big Boss and collaborate with Tony to decode the Life Equation inscribed on the Life Stele...
