"From this perspective, what Odin took from Jotunheim back then was not just a simple treasure."

L said, "Loki's talent is undoubtedly exceptional. Odin may have taken Loki away because he valued Loki's talent, and at the same time, he wanted to curb the development of the Frost Giants."

415 "Odin, you're getting old."

At this point in the battle, aside from Thor, who was going all out, and Loki, who was just going through the motions, the other four Asgardian warriors had all suffered injuries of varying degrees. Among them, Hogan's was the most serious; he had been pierced through the chest by ice spikes conjured by the Frost Giants.

"We have to go."

Loki shouted at Thor, who was wreaking havoc. All of Loki's original plans had vanished after realizing he was immune to frost magic; he was now completely disoriented.

"Let's go then."

[After hearing Loki's words, Thor spoke, then hurled his hammer. Mjolnir automatically slaughtered dozens of Frost Giants in succession. Laufey, sitting on the throne, could no longer tolerate Thor's carnage. He controlled the Frost Cube to awaken the frozen beasts. The frozen beasts slowly awoke, opening their blood-red eyes, characteristic of the Frost race, and stared at Loki and his companions.]

"Run!"

"Volstagg, carrying his companion, looked at the awakened frost behemoth and shouted."

[“Thor!”]

As Loki and his companions fled, they didn't forget to call out to Thor. Thor, however, was already caught up in the action, swinging his hammer Mjolnir wildly, smashing the approaching frost giants. The awakened frost behemoth ignored them, and the unstoppable Thor chased after the fleeing Loki and his group.

Thor also kept his hammer close to the ground, letting it spin and continuously shatter the earth, turning the fragments into machine gun-like projectiles that shot towards the surrounding frost giants.

[The frost giant on the other side, though bulky in size, was surprisingly fast, and its terrifying size allowed it to largely ignore terrain and charge straight through.]

Feeling the efficiency was too low, Thor raised his hammer, Mjolnir, and summoned lightning to strike the surrounding frost giants, instantly turning them to dust. The terrifying lightning even affected Loki and the others who had fled dozens of miles away. The earth was shattered and collapsed by the terrifying energy, like an apocalyptic earthquake. And this was just one strike of lightning summoned by Thor.

"Did Thor hold back when we were fighting the Chitauri?"

Kazuma Sato, observing the power and range of Thor's attack, remarked, "In 'The Avengers,' the lightning bolt killed a group of Chitauri soldiers, and then he used his hammer to fight. But in 'Thor,' in his own territory, a single lightning bolt created an apocalyptic effect, although there was a fear of affecting Earth."

But Sato Kazuma still felt that Thor might have gone easy on him.

"Perhaps this is the difference between an away game you don't like and an away game you like. You can't unleash your full potential or use your big-scale killing moves on Earth."

Hachiman Hikigaya said, looking at the range of Thor's attack on the light screen, he felt that Thor in "The Avengers" had only used half his strength, and that Thor had held back too much when he fought them.

Hogan, being carried, watched the frost behemoth fall into the collapsed pit created by Thor, laughing and thinking it was no big deal. In reality, the frost behemoth hadn't fallen in; instead, it was crawling and running along the opposite side of the ground, because below wasn't a bottomless abyss but a huge underground cavern.

"Heimdall, open the Rainbow Bridge!"

Loki, having reached the edge, shouted, knowing Heimdall could hear him.

However, instead of the Bifrost summoned by Heimdall, Loki and his companions were met with the giant claws of a frost behemoth. The frost behemoth slowly emerged, its terrifying size blotting out the sky as it stood before Loki and his group. But the next second, it was instantly killed by Thor's hammer as he flew in.

[Then Thor watched as the Frost Giants, showing no signs of diminishing despite the recent battle, seemed to have grown even stronger. The densely packed army of Frost Giants advanced towards Thor and his companions on the cliff edge. Just as they braced themselves for a fierce battle, a brilliant golden light suddenly appeared in the darkness of Jotunheim. The next second, a seven-colored beam of light descended from the sky, and a figure riding a warhorse appeared before them.]

"Father, let's destroy them together."

Thor, watching Odin enter, raised Mjolnir high and shouted with boundless fighting spirit. In Thor's mind, he could single-handedly rout these Frost Giants; if his father Odin joined the fray, they would be a match for all of them.

【"Shut up."】

Odin responded to Thor with a low, rebuking tone.

"The Father of the Gods."

[As Odin appeared, Laufey, the king of the Frost Giants, also appeared beside him and whispered.]

"You look very tired."

"Loufi, let's stop here."

"It was your son who started it."

"Yes, it's just a boy's prank, don't make a big deal out of it."

"We can settle this here; there's no need to incite further bloodshed."

"This matter has gone beyond the bounds of diplomacy, Father of the Gods."

"He will get what he wants."

【"war."】

"And death."

Laufey, the Frost Giant King, completely ignored Odin's truce. Perhaps seeing Odin's aged and decrepit appearance stirred Laufey's own ambitions.

【"Oh well."】

[As soon as Odin finished speaking, Laufey conjured an ice dagger with ice magic and thrust it at Odin, but was blinded by the intense light emanating from the spear in Odin's hand. A tremendous impact then sent him flying, forcing the surrounding frost giants to retreat as well. Odin then seized the opportunity to lead Thor and his companions away from Jotunheim.]

Watching Odin depart, Laufey already had an idea in his mind: Odin was no longer the god of war he once was.

"Odin, are you getting old?"

Orochimaru felt a pang of emotion as he watched Odin and his companions fade from the light screen.

Could even Odin, the father of the gods, not escape the power of time? If so, can the immortality he seeks truly be achieved?

Orochimaru thought to himself, knowing that he would be under Zhuge Cong's command, and judging from his performance, he seemed to have only managed to develop the Extremis Virus, something that could heal flesh and bone but not bring the dead back to life.

Is immortality just a fantasy?

Orochimaru thought as he looked at the aged Odin.

416: Kiyotaka Ayanokoji: It's simple, Odin doesn't want Thor, and Loki is very happy.

Why were we brought back?

Upon returning to Asgard, Thor immediately began questioning everyone, sensing an opportunity to fight.

"Do you know what you've done? What you've stirred up?!"

Odin looked at Thor, who was still questioning him about why he had brought them back, and said somewhat angrily.

"I'm defending my home."

"You defend our homeland? You can't even protect your own friends."

"And by what right do you defend our homeland?"

Odin then pulled the Bult steel from the hole and tossed it to Heimdall.

"Take him to get treated quickly."

Odin looked at the injured Hogan and said...

"If we fear action, the kingdom will perish; what is there to defend?"

Thor continued arguing with Odin.

"The Frost Giants must learn to fear me as they once feared you."

"This is pride and arrogance, not leadership."

Odin and Thor are, at this point, typical examples of the pro-war and pro-peace factions, respectively.

Loki, who usually enjoyed watching his brother Thor clash with his father Odin, now sat listlessly to the side, the events surrounding frost magic having a profound impact on him.

"Have you forgotten what I taught you, soldier's patience?"

"While you wait and endure."

"And now, all nine kingdoms are laughing at us."

"The old path is no longer viable. You've witnessed Asgard's decline, yet all you do is talk big."

"You are a hypocritical, greedy, and cruel child."

"You're a stupid old man."

At this point, Thor was already furious, and Odin was also very dissatisfied with Thor's behavior and thoughts.

Odin, upon hearing Thor's words, paused for a moment, then lowered his head silently and let out a long sigh.

"Yes, I was foolish to think you were ready."

"Father."

Loki was about to say something when Odin interrupted him.

"Sol Odinson."

Odin's voice trembled slightly, whether from anger or some other reason was unclear.

"You have disobeyed the kingdom's explicit orders. Because of your arrogance and folly, the peaceful kingdom and innocent lives will face the horrors and tragedies of war."

[Odin then inserted Gungnir into the Rainbow Bridge. Besides Bult Steel, his Gungnir could also activate the Bifrost. After inserting it, Odin walked up to Thor and said...]

"You have failed these kingdoms, you have failed your title."

"You've let me down!"

As Odin spoke, he tore off the round plaque and cloak from Thor's armor.

It's not that Odin isn't afraid of war, nor is it that Odin is old; rather, it's that Odin doesn't want to see the Nine Realms descend into chaos and war again.

"The person who loved you whom you betrayed."

After Odin finished speaking, he turned and walked to the spot where Gungnir was stuck, then spoke to Thor.
