Chapter 178: Rewards and Announcement: The Liberator Silas's Legacy
Odin's beard and hair are spread out, and under the divine light, he looks majestic.
He shouted loudly: "We will eventually defeat Thanos, just like we have defeated every powerful enemy before, chop off his head!"
"We Asgard are invincible!"
The crowd burst into shouts and cheers, and confusion and panic were swept away. Odin also said some words of encouragement at the right time, and then turned and left amid the cheers of the people.
Back in the palace, Frigga found him with a strange look on her face and said, "Odin, these gloves are fake. You are deceiving the people."
"I know, but this is a white lie and it is necessary. Frigga, people need hope and see the light in the darkness. This is more important than anything else!"
Odin is well versed in the way of a king, especially after his recent in-depth cooperation with the earth. He has also learned some experience in human rule of the country.
Frigga thinks that he is deceiving the people. On Earth, this is called public opinion guidance.
Both official and private media do this almost all the time.
It can be said that the current human society is completely a world of lies where it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
In comparison, it would not be an exaggeration to say that what Odin just did was a white lie.
He said solemnly: "Although the Infinity Gauntlet is fake, I know where the glove in Thanos's hand was obtained. I will prevent him from getting the Infinity Glove. This is also fulfilling my promise to the people!"
"There are also Infinity Stones!" Frigga reminded.
"Of course, we must also protect the Infinity Stones, but this is not something I can do alone." Odin turned his attention to the atrium, which is the direction of the earth.
Earth, Kama Taj.
Under the light curtain, just like the audiences elsewhere, the mages here were also silent.
Compared to Thanos' madness and power, the mages are more concerned about Thanos's method of reversing time.
At this moment, the Ancient One Mage, Stephen Strange and Karl Mordo were all in the courtyard a little further away, looking up at the light curtain.
When he saw Thanos raising his hand to reveal the green gem on his thumb in the light screen video and reversing time, Karl Mordo's eyes widened and he subconsciously exclaimed: "Is that the Eye of Agamotto? !”
Then he turned to look at Ancient One, "Mage, is the Eye of Agamotto the Time Stone among the Infinity Stones?"
Gu Yi nodded slightly, "Yes, that's exactly it."
Karl Mordo was even more surprised when he heard this. The Eye of Agamotto was a token of the Supreme Mage and was personally protected by the current Supreme Mage, Ancient One.
In the future revealed in the quiz game, the Eye of Agamotto was captured by Thanos. Does this mean that Thanos defeated the Sorcerer Supreme and snatched it from him?
"Is Thanos a being more powerful than the ruler of the dark dimension?" Karl Mordo was stirred up in his heart, and asked tentatively: "Master, have you seen such a future?"
However, Gu Yi glanced at him meaningfully and did not answer the question.
Instead, he said to Stephen Strange: "Your study here can come to an end."
"Can I go home?" Stephen Strange shrugged, "Frankly speaking, I think it's not bad here, at least it's safer than outside."
Ancient One shook his head and pointedly said: "When disaster strikes, there is no safe place. Stephen, I promised Nick Fury of SHIELD that I would send disciples to help them. I I hope you can help."
Stephen Strange was a little unhappy: "Are you asking me to join the Avengers? Please, I'm not interested in those superheroes!"
He has now experienced the mystery of magic and has gradually become addicted to it. He just wants to continue to study the mysteries of magic.
"Stephen, you have to know that the power of magic often contains unknown dangers. In my opinion, you have been pacing back and forth on the threshold of danger. You need to calm down and think for a while." Ancient One's attitude was firm.
Seeing this, Stephen Strange had no choice but to agree.
At this time, in the light screen video, Thanos used time to go back and personally clasped the yellow infinity stone from Vision's forehead and placed it on his glove.
He looked up to the sky and roared, obviously strengthened again.
But poor Vision died twice in this short period of time.
At this point, the video ends.
The final standings were displayed on the light screen. Rocky completed the lead by answering the last question correctly and topped the standings with 3 points.
The second one is Wanda Maximoff, she got 2 points, Tony Stark and Steve Rogers answered the last question wrong, and each got only 1 point.
Tony Stark complained when he saw this: "To be honest, participating in a game does not earn more points than completing a travel mission."
"Don't say that, Tony. If you can win the game, you will get a mysterious reward. Moreover, the game will always reveal the unknown future to us. This is the most important thing, isn't it?"
After Steve Rogers finished speaking, he shook his head. He only felt a little regretful that Loki actually won the reward in the end.
Loki was now very proud and said with a smile: "Tony Stark, please say more, I like to hear the lamentations of losers!"
"Shit! I curse you for getting only one stinky sock!" Tony Stark couldn't help but curse.
Loki smiled even more happily, "If we can answer questions together next time, I will beat you again!"
Amid their bickering, a loud voice came from above: "Congratulations to player Loki Laufeyson for winning this round of the game. He will receive the mysterious grand prize - the glorious inheritance of Silas the Liberator!"
"Reminder: Since player Loki Laufeyson has been punished by depriving him of his divine power and magical knowledge, he can now choose between restoring his original power and the mysterious reward!"
A golden halo appeared on the light screen, eager to try, as if ready to jump out at any time and sink into Loki's body. As long as he makes a choice, he can get this inheritance reward.
But at the same time, another option was given. Loki once tried to attack the quiz game and received the punishment he deserved. Now he has the opportunity to restore his original power.
This made him hesitate.
Loki was very confident in his divine power, magical skills, and knowledge, and felt that even in Asgard, he was a top wizard.
If Thanos' future had not been exposed this time, he would have chosen to restore his power. After all, he had obtained it through years of hard study. Wouldn't it be a pity to give it up?
But now, he hesitated.
His future self must be stronger than his current self, whether in terms of divine power or magical knowledge.
But Thanos was still powerless to resist, and was strangled to death like a poor little chicken.
