Chapter 676 King of the Gods (Continued)

[Divine Authority Domain (Trait)]...[Odin's Power. God (Trait)]...[Summon Heroic Spirits (Trait)]...

While the father and his two sons were reminiscing, Mike also received many special orbs of light from Odin, the king of the gods.

In particular, with the [Divine Realm], Mike, now only needs to define his territory to immediately control the prophecy, wisdom, kingship, and even death within that region.

It can be said that if he wanted to, he could immediately use this authority to create a powerful group of followers who are loyal only to him.

With this ability, he can now be considered a "God King".

Of course, Mike had no intention of conquering the Nine Realms; he was more focused on improving his own strength than becoming a God-King.

Therefore, he will probably use this permission on Peggy and others to secure his own backyard.

As the saying goes: "When one person attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven."

Mike didn't want to be all alone after he passed away.

From this perspective, the authority of the [God King] is quite significant to him.

“Your Excellency the Guardian, I have heard of your deeds. Thank you for taking care of Thor during this time.” Odin, after speaking with his two children, turned his gaze to Mike.

He could sense that Mike possessed a divine quality. Though still quite inexperienced, his future was promising.

Such a future powerhouse deserves Odin's special attention.

If possible, he wouldn't mind investing more in the young man in front of him, which would also be a way to provide extra insurance for his two children.

“Thor is my friend, so helping him out is nothing. Besides, I got a good reward for it,” Mike said with a smile.

It can be seen as an intentional attempt to build a closer relationship with Odin.

Although the opponent's life was nearing its end, he was undoubtedly a true [God King].

Even a small amount of the experience and knowledge accumulated over the years would be of great help to Mike.

After all, Mike's strength lies in his stats, but in terms of accumulated experience, he is still far inferior to veteran powerhouses like Odin.

Moreover, the Odin of today is not the "useless" old man he portrays.

Mike could clearly sense that the other party had not lost their divine power.

Of course, Odin's condition at this time was not good either.

Whether it was the queen's death that disheartened him or his own impending doom, Odin's immense divine power was rapidly dissipating.

If I had to find a word to describe it, it would be a tattered bag that leaks air everywhere.

At the same time, Norway, as the origin of Norse mythology, is also the place where Odin began.

There seems to be a force here, continuously replenishing Odin's divine power.

This is probably why Odin chose to "retire" here.

However, in general, the divine power replenished still couldn't keep up with the rate at which Odin's divine power was being lost.

In other words, staying here might delay Odin's death, but it cannot prevent it from happening.

Of course, this process of mutual exploitation is perhaps very short compared to the long life of the God-King.

But that would be enough for Odin to live for several more years, or even hundreds more.

If used properly, this time would be enough for Odin to train Thor into a qualified successor.

"The reward you're talking about, is it the damaged Destroyer armor? That's far from enough for what you've paid..." Seemingly realizing that Mike's impression of Thor wasn't bad, Odin decisively increased the stakes.

With a wave of his hand, he summoned the God King's Three-Piece Set from his treasure trove: the Crown of Kings, the Eternal Spear, and the Eight-Legged Divine Steed.

"Perhaps these things will satisfy you."

When Odin placed the three artifacts in front of Mike, his eyes became incredibly deep.

As mentioned before, Odin was confident that he could train Thor into a qualified successor in a short period of time.

But the calamity of Ragnarok still hangs like the Sword of Damocles over Thor and the Asgardian gods.

Therefore, Odin needed to make extra preparations, ideally to ensure Thor's safety. Mike clearly understood Odin's meaning from his eyes and said, "This is indeed a wonderful gift. From this day forward, Thor will always be my friend."

Mike got a good deal by exchanging a promise for three top-tier artifacts.

All I can say is that Odin was indeed willing to make sacrifices for his children.

“Very good~” Odin smiled broadly and then handed the three artifacts to Mike.

It also thoughtfully explained how to use the three magical artifacts.

The Crown of Kings allows the wearer to always keep a calm mind during battle.

The Eternal Spear, like the Spear of Light, possesses the ability to strike with certainty.

The eight-legged steed can absorb the energy from its rider, thus complementing the rider.

Overall, they are all good products.

Furthermore, Odin, the king of the gods, is far more powerful than the god of Mike's home world.

Therefore, the attributes of the Crown of Kings and the Spear of Eternity are superior to those of the Crown of Wisdom and the Spear of Light that Mike swiped from God.

Afterwards, Mike, now equipped with his new gear, donned the Crown of Kings, wielded the Spear of Eternity, and rode his eight-legged steed into the sky.

To complete the set bonus, he even materialized the Destroyer Armor on his body.

Then we saw Mike, like a god of war descending, riding an eight-legged steed with pure white flames on its hooves, soaring through the sky.

"Father, so your divine power hasn't disappeared. But why did you give away your weapons and mount to someone else?" Loki's face showed jealousy as he looked at Mike's imposing appearance.

Then he realized that his father's power had not been sealed.

After all, how could an ordinary person summon a divine artifact so easily?

“Look at him, doesn’t he have the same style as I did back then?” Odin didn’t respond to his youngest son’s little scheme, but instead smiled and said to Thor, “You’ve made a very good friend.”

Thor didn't think too much about it and sighed, "Mike's strength was already quite good. With the help of the artifact, he does indeed have some of the style that Father had back then."

Seeing his two sons' different reactions, Odin smiled and shook his head.

One of them was deep and calculating, while the other was overly naive.

Clearly, none of them understood Odin's true intentions.

“With his strength, his future achievements are bound to be remarkable.” Odin cut to the chase and said directly, “Therefore, I hope you can maintain a good relationship with him. If necessary, he may become your savior.”

The way he said it almost sounded like he was entrusting his son to someone else.

The quick-witted Loki seemed to realize something. A hint of sadness crept into his gaze as he looked at Odin once more.

As for Thor, he remained carefree, saying, "Father, don't worry. Mike is not only my friend, but he also has a good relationship with Sif and the warriors of Asgard."

Although their motivations differed, Thor's answer unexpectedly reassured Odin.

"That's good." Odin nodded with relief, then turned and gently patted his youngest son's shoulder to comfort him.

Clearly, the God-King also keenly noticed the unusual behavior of his youngest son.

As a father, there are many things he can't say directly, so he can only show his care through his actions.

……

Over the next month, while Odin was counseling his younger son, he also began to seriously teach his older son about managing the realm of the gods.

Meanwhile, Mike also took this opportunity to ask Odin for advice on how to utilize his own strength.

Like a thirsty sponge, I learned a lot of useful knowledge and experience from the other party.

"I'm planning to go to Nidavellir to see if I can fuse my equipment. Also, thank you again for sharing all this time." After finishing his studies, Mike bid farewell to Odin, leaving the remaining time alone with the father and his two sons.

Mike then used Heimdall's summons to travel across the Bifrost to Nidavellir, the realm of forgers and artisans.

Because of his connection with Odin, Mike was welcomed by the dwarven craftsmen in Nidavellir.
