Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 184 Overnight Riches (Third Update)

"Oh dear, what's going on? So many!"

In a guest room in the Celestial Palace, Jerry, who had nothing to do for the time being, quietly opened his strange panel.

However, when he saw the little red star on his panel, he was completely stunned.

Originally, when he returned from the Harry Potter world, he only had a few thousand little red stars left on his panel, but the number has decreased even more due to his frequent use of Superman mode these past two days.

But now, the number of his little red stars has increased by 300,000.

Three hundred thousand pills! If he were to stop crime in New York, how long would it take him to earn that much? Maybe several years.

This is simply getting rich overnight!

After thinking it over carefully for a while, Jerry finally figured out why so many little red stars had been added to his account.

First, stopping the Destroyer from destroying Old Bridge Town will definitely earn you some Little Red Stars, but probably not many, since Old Bridge Town doesn't have many residents, and the Destroyer is mainly after Thor.

Secondly, he killed Loki instantly, preventing Loki from activating the Bifrost to destroy Jotunheim, which can be considered saving a world.

But that's not the most important thing, because even without him, with Thor and Odin, Jotunheim couldn't have been destroyed like that, otherwise it wouldn't have only 300,000 little red stars.

Finally, and what he considered the most likely origin of the little red star, was that his intervention prevented the Rainbow Bridge from breaking, thus preventing turmoil in the Nine Realms.

The Rainbow Bridge would definitely have broken in the original storyline, but it was thanks to his intervention that it was preserved.

Thinking about it, Jerry realized he worked hard every night to earn just a few little red stars, but after only a few days in New Mexico, he had accumulated a huge number of them. He couldn't help but sigh in amazement.

"Sure enough, wherever there are superheroes, disaster is bound to follow!"

In fact, this causal reasoning is incorrect. The truth is that superheroes only emerge because of the occurrence of disasters, just as the times create heroes.

However, on the surface, it is true that wherever there is disaster, there are superheroes.

It was this point that made Jerry suddenly realize the truth.

If you want to acquire a lot of Little Red Stars, you still need to keep an eye on the activities of these superheroes, because they are all prone to causing trouble, and not just any trouble.

See, when he met the Hulk, he gained a bunch of little red stars. And during the last robot soldier riot, he gained another bunch of little red stars while with Iron Man.

This time, being with Thor earned him an additional 300,000 little red stars.

With these 300,000 little red stars, he could finally use the "mind-refreshing" meditation technique without any worries.

Thanks to the enhancement from meditation, his physical condition is now twice that of a normal human. In addition, the side effects of using Little Red Star for a long time are now so minor that they can be ignored.

In other words, if he wanted, he could even keep the "energizing" function running 24 hours a day without any side effects.

He used "mind-boosting" during the day to improve his learning ability, and at night he used "mind-boosting" to improve the efficiency of his meditation practice. As a result, his strength increased rapidly.

Moreover, it can be activated without any restrictions during combat, making the battle more relaxed.

However, the number of little red stars in reality doesn't allow for that!

One little red star lasts one minute, sixty stars lasts one hour, and twenty-four hours a day, which is more than 1,400 stars. He also needs to save the little red stars to travel through the small worlds, so it is simply not enough.

Therefore, when he practiced meditation at night, he rarely used "Mind Refreshing" and mostly relied on Merlin's Ring. Although Merlin's Ring was much worse than "Mind Refreshing", it was better than nothing.

However, from today onwards, or at least for the next six months to a year, he will no longer have to worry about Little Red Star.

Three hundred thousand is enough to last a long time if he spends it freely. In addition, if he is diligent and goes out for a stroll every day, he can still earn some more money.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. The household matters are now settled, and Father God wishes to see you to express his gratitude!"

Just as Jerry was looking at the panel and making his next training plan, Thor, carrying his beloved hammer, walked into the room with a somewhat gloomy expression.

"My pleasure!"

Jerry, already prepared, stood up.

Jerry had somewhat anticipated that Odin would receive him.

However, he wasn't worried about anything, since he had been helping Thor the whole time and even helped save Asgard's most important Rainbow Bridge in the end.

Given Odin's status as the king of the gods, even if he doesn't reward himself in any way, he certainly won't make things difficult for himself!

"What's wrong? You don't look too well?"

On the way to Odin's Temple, Jerry noticed Thor sighing frequently and asked him a question with some confusion.

Thor sighed upon hearing this:

"I just never imagined that Loki wasn't my biological brother, or even an Asgardian, but rather an orphan of the Frost Giants!"

"That sounds pretty melodramatic!"

For the rest of the journey, Jerry listened to Thor recount what had happened during Loki's trial at Odin's Temple.

It turns out that Loki was abandoned by the Frost Giants because he was only the size of an ordinary human at birth.

When Odin attacked Jotunheim, or rather, when he helped humanity drive the Frost Giants back to Jotunheim, he happened to find Loki, who had been abandoned.

Seeing his pitiful state, they took him in and adopted him as their son, and he remains so to this day.

"How is Loki now?"

After holding it in for so long, Jerry finally asked the question that had been on his mind the most.

"Fortunately, although he committed a grave mistake, it didn't cause too many serious consequences. Originally, Father God intended to sentence him to permanent imprisonment in the dungeon, but due to my and Mother's pleas, he was ultimately only sentenced to twenty years in prison for self-reflection!"

Twenty years is not a long time for them, who have a lifespan of up to five thousand years.

"Life imprisonment and twenty years, that's a pretty big difference!"

Jerry couldn't help but grin after hearing that.

Clearly, Odin intended to treat Loki with a high sledge and a soft nut.

However, after hearing Thor recount Loki's origins, Jerry felt that something was amiss.

Odin, as the king of the gods, actually picked up an abandoned baby from an enemy race and adopted him. If it was out of compassion, then he could have just handed him over to an ordinary person of the Arsa to raise. It seems a bit too deliberate to raise him as his own son.

It's not that they plan to train Loki to inherit the position of Frost Giant King in the future, thus indirectly bringing this race, which has always refused to submit, under their control.

Thor, King of Asgard, and Loki, King of the Frost Giants. If the two brothers had a good relationship, there would never have been a war between the Frost Giants and the Asgardians.

If that's true, then Odin played his cards very well!
