The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

The garden of Asgard, no matter what season it is, is always full of special vitality. After this beautiful land enters winter, evergreen trees replace the original luxuriant broad-leaved forest, adding a touch of primitive and wild atmosphere to the place.

Push aside the branches of shrubs with bright red fruits and walk across the stone road. In front of you is a square that suddenly opens up, and a fountain that has been frozen into ice sculptures.

Covering the edge of the fountain, the thick snow-covered surface suddenly moved, and soon, a small pit was sunken there. A butterfly folded from yellowed letter paper flapped its wings twice, covering the body. The snow was shaken off, and it hovered nimbly and flew up.

Flying over the water column of the fountain, brushing over the wet soil, lightly tapping the water above the gurgling stream formed by the melting snow, and then bringing this wet chill to a white and slender hand.

With bony fingers, he gently closed the heavy book, stroked the black hair on his head, and turned to look at the blond man walking towards him.

Frigga knew you were studying here, and she asked me to bring you the cloak to prevent you from freezing. Thor handed the cloak in his hand to Loki.

Luo Ji took the cloak, but did not wear it on her body. Instead, she held the cloak and looked at Thor, tore off a page from the notebook under the book, handed it to him, and said, Kama Taj gave Asgard's Christmas gift, if there is no problem, please inform Sif and let her prepare to lead a team to welcome it.

Thor frowned, took the piece of paper, and looked at the many terms unique to the human magic world written on it. He put the paper down, looked at Luo Ji and said, Christmas gift? I have never heard of it in all these years. Sgard received a Christmas gift from Karma Taj, the father of the gods probably didn't hide it from me...

They gave it away for the first time this year. Luo Ji tilted her head and said, But you should also know why. A while ago, didn't you compensate for the loss of the time gem in the Holy of Holies? This is part of my share.

Thor froze in place, completely ignoring the logic in Luo Ji's words, so he walked to the other side of the table in Huating and sat down, while fiddling with the paper butterfly on the table, he asked, Is this the same as the paper butterfly? What does it matter if I compensate the Holy Sanctuary? Isn't it because you secretly exchanged the Time Stone, which caused them a loss, that we can compensate you?

Luo Ji pursed her lips helplessly, and looked at Thor with an expression of Why are you never enlightened?

Later, she slapped the notebook on the table angrily, and said, I swear, this is the last time I explain a similar principle to you, and in the future, don't you want to hear any similar topics from me again, Tom. Al Odinson! You fool!

Thor was not angry, but just showed a smile, looked at Luo Ji and said, Isn't this great? You are good at things I don't understand. Our abilities just complement each other, and we are simply a golden partner...

Hearing Thor's last words, Luo Ji's eyes darkened for a moment, but then she cleared her throat and asked Thor:

Let me ask you, the Supreme Mage lost the Eye of Agamotto, does he need to get it back?

Thor nodded and said, Of course! Wait a minute, you secretly changed the Eye of Agmoto, he already knows this, won't he ask you for it?

Then what if I don't pay him back?

Then can you beat him?

Luo Ji rolled her eyes and said, I can't beat Gu Yi, can I still beat Stephen? You are too underestimating my gold content as the number one mage in the Nine Realms.

Don't be a fool. Thor shook his head and said, Just tell me if you have anything, and don't ask me again, I can't guess anything.

Luo Ji sighed, and said as if helpless: The Supreme Mage belongs to the Holy of Holies, and now, the Holy of Holies needs to be active in the world, so most of the field departments are under the management of S.H.I.E.L.D.

The Time Gem of the Supreme Mage is lost. Naturally, the Holy of Holies must be found. However, if the mages of the Holy of Holies want to enter the human world to find it, they need the consent of SHIELD.

Then, in order to prevent these mages from disturbing the order of the human world, the conscientious S.H.I.E.L.D. should start a series of training in advance to popularize the rules of the human world for them?

Wait! Thor interrupted Luo Ji and said, Those operators in the Holy of Holies, aren't all Nick from prison...

Don't talk nonsense! Luo Ji raised her voice again, interrupted him, and said, What do you mean from prison? That's the human special talent reserve management center, and those people are specially assigned to the Holy of Holies to promote God The diplomats of the SHIELD communicating with Karma Taj...

Thor spread his hands and said, Okay, let's say what you say.

If you want to carry out the training of mages, you will naturally need training bases and manpower. Of course, this is nothing, but they will naturally need some assistants and security personnel when they come to the human world to search. A team of 30 mages, with 30,000 Human security personnel, shouldn't be too much, right?

Thor stared blankly at Luo Ji, and Luo Ji began to count with her fingers again: The Eye of Agamotto, as the artifact passed down by the supreme mage for a long time, was accidentally lost due to force majeure, so naturally it should be reported as a major loss... ...

Stop! Thor stretched out another hand and said, Didn't you lose it? At that time, didn't Stephen find out that the Time Stone was with you?

But I won't pay him back! Luo Ji said confidently.

Then he won't ask you for it?

But he can't beat me!

Thor slapped him on the forehead, and Luo Ji went on to say: The Eye of Agamotto was snatched away by the number one mage in the Nine Realms, and neither the Sanctuary nor SHIELD has the ability to get it back. If it's not a loss, what is it?

In addition, in order to prevent similar incidents from happening in the future, the sanctuary should naturally strengthen its security management. In addition to adding a security team of 100,000 people, it is also necessary to train the current security personnel...

What's the point of this? Thor said in a puzzled way: Even... even if Nick and Strange ask for money, what does this have to do with you? You don't need human currency!

Luo Ji looked up to the sky and sighed, and said: However, I helped them get the funds they wanted, and even helped them get compensation from you, so when they pay dividends, shouldn't they also help me? Send magic items and energy equivalent to the assets of the earth to Asgard?

Thor widened his eyes, looked at the list in his hand, looked carefully for a while, and said slowly: Don't tell me, there is really something good in it, the protoss fragment guides magic and melts gold, this Gu Yi should have brought it back, right? You actually let stingy humans give these things away?

Luo Ji rolled her eyes again and said: Because, this is of little use to them. The main function of the protoss fragments is to create a teleporter between starships, but humans have neither starships nor teleporters. , they have hanging rings.

Guiding magic melting gold is used to cast the magic power line of the staff, but the mages of Kama Taj don't need a staff, let alone the ancient one. Only us protoss who have a lot of power and have nowhere to use it need to be used for it. A staff that controls the power and precision of magic...

Luo Ji sighed and said: These are the rags that Gu Yi picked up from all over the universe. If they can't be filled, they will go back to Karma Taj to unload them. Until recently, Karma Taj's warehouse couldn't hold them...

They want to get these things away, but they can't give us away for nothing. You said it all, those humans are so stingy.

That's why I secretly exchanged the Time Gem and asked you to pay them the technology of the spaceship bridge and monitoring equipment they need, and then they will give us these materials in the name of Christmas gifts...

Then why can't we exchange directly? Thor asked again.

If it's a direct exchange, it becomes a deal. Luo Ji spread her hands on the table and said, Do you think the Asgardians can accept that the great Asgard is equivalent to the weak human beings? Trade? They only want to accept human tribute.

Moreover, these weak humans are not willing to trade with Asgard, not to mention that these piles of things are really useful to us, even if they are really a pile of rags, they have to be kept in the warehouse until the end of time, to prevent some naive might come in handy.”

Rocky looked into Thor's eyes and said, Thor, now you are not only a general and a king, but also a politician, and the first thing a politician has to learn is how not to be responsible to your voters.

Thor's eyes widened, but Luo Ji said very confidently: Few people in Asgard can understand what we are facing now and what kind of pressure it is that makes us have to support humans, even in some On the one hand, we have to please them...

If we announce all these plans, what we get will not be support, but endless denunciation and protest, but if we tell the story of Ragnarok, what awaits us is panic and rebellion .”

Hearing this sentence, Thor also sighed, nodded reluctantly, and recognized what Luo Ji said. After all, he also knew that in order to deal with Ragnarok, all forces must be gathered, and the potential is huge Human beings are also objects that need to be wooed.

However, it is impossible for the aloof gods of Asgard to accept that they still need human beings. Under the premise that the truth of Ragnarok is not announced, everyone will think that this is Thor using power for personal gain.

But if the truth is announced, let alone whether Asgardians believe it or not, even if they believe it, it will only cause panic and anxiety. Facts have proved that the vast majority of extreme militants can only accept victory , cannot accept failure.

If they knew that Asgard's ending was destined to fail, Thor would know what kind of turmoil it would cause without even thinking about it.

Even if every god in Asgard is loyal and willing to fight with Thor to the last moment, the long-term inertia of thinking also makes them lack political thinking, which will cause Asgard to suffer diplomatically. At this time, Luo Ji The role played is indispensable.

That's it, we reached a deal, each got what they wanted, and at the same time, it also allowed the factions on the earth that are closer to Asgard to get more funds, and brought them closer to the Holy Spirit. The distance between S.H.I.E.L.D. and Asgard...

Luo Ji counted the gains from the theft of this little time gem, and Thor couldn't help but sigh: In the whole of Asgard, you are the only one who can do this kind of thing. If you count on me and Sif, you will lose your head. Can't think of such a series of complicated plans...

Luo Ji shook her head and said: It's actually not difficult, it's just that you don't think about it, or that Asgard didn't have any diplomacy in the past, and our only diplomatic means were naval guns, but today is different from the past. It's...

Don't say that, Luo Ji, others can't do it, but what you can do is of course your strength. Thor leaned back, leaned on the back of the chair, raised his head and said, I really don't I dare to imagine how painful it would be if I was the only one facing the doomsday.

Luo Ji shook her head and said: Even until the end, you will not be alone. Although human beings are very stingy in terms of money, their emotions are too abundant, and they wish to give everyone a share.

Thor thought of many people, including those who helped him when he was on Earth. He nodded and said, I'm going to Earth to spend Christmas with my friends. How about you?

I have no friends. Luo Ji stood up holding the book.

The girl of the gods turned her head and looked into the distance, where there were the spires of the fairy palace covered in silver on the horizon, the curling smoke from the martial arts arena, and the backs of pine trees standing on the ground like guards.
