Well, it wasn't just a simple encounter; she was also parasitized by the Aether.
The luck was simply unbeatable.
So, that's why he brought Jane Foster back to Asgard?
This should be the situation mentioned in the previous diary, where he brought Jane Foster back to Asgard, right?
And he was thoroughly disliked by his father, Odin.
At the time, Thor was still wondering if the other him was really that easily misled, casually bringing a mortal to Asgard?
After all this time, it turned out to be like this.
But, wasn't Malekith attacking Asgard for the Reality Stone?
Judging from the current tone of the diary, was Malekith actually attacking Asgard for the Aether?
Could it be…
The Aether is the Reality Stone?
Thor thought it was highly probable.
After all, Asgard couldn't be so useless as to let Malekith invade twice, could they?
That would be a joke!
This also explained why the Aether was so incredibly powerful, capable of letting darkness consume the Nine Realms!
It also explained why Asgard had obtained the Reality Stone.
It was obvious that it was because of this battle with the Dark Elves.
In this battle, Asgard completely defeated the Dark Elves and, with Jane Foster's help, killed Malekith.
Thus, they obtained the Aether, the enemy's secret weapon!
That is, the Reality Stone.
It all connects!
After piecing together this fragment from the diary's spoilers, the relevant puzzle pieces fit together even more completely and smoothly.
Not only that.
If we calculate the time, hasn't it been over four thousand nine hundred years since the last Convergence?
Doesn't this mean the Dark Elves are about to make their comeback?
Thor's expression began to grow serious.
"Jane Foster!"
"It's Jane Foster again!"
Nick Fury, standing before another notebook, refocused his gaze on the name.
Long ago, the Director had monitored Jane Foster due to Thor's arrival.
Later, when planning to "matchmake" Natasha and Thor, he'd analyzed Jane Foster as well.
But that operation ultimately failed.
As a result, Nick Fury had shifted his attention away from Jane Foster, no longer concerning himself with her.
However, it seemed the Director would have to resume this previously abandoned task.
Jane Foster was the key to the Dark Elves' revival!
It's the key to finding the Aether, or rather, the Reality Stone!
Nick Fury didn't expect this ordinary astrophysicist to be such an important figure.
To be honest, even if that's the case, it doesn't make much difference to Asgard.
Anyway, when Hela sees the light of day again, she's going to slaughter Asgard!
If I remember correctly, Hela alone wiped out the entire Asgardian army.
She was simply unstoppable, an absolute killing machine, and incredibly powerful!
Even if Thor and Loki joined forces, they wouldn't stand a chance.
Even if Thor underwent a transformation after being beaten by Hela, increasing his strength and becoming the true Hammer God, it would still be useless.
[Oh, right, and we have to include Valkyrie. She's definitely top-tier combat power in Asgard.]
"No, that can't be!"
"How could this happen!"
Thor, in front of the diary, was utterly shocked.
Even though the diary had mentioned before that he was beaten very, very badly by the death goddess Hela, even to the point of being "beaten like a dog."
Furthermore, even his own hammer was crushed by Hela.
But no matter what, Thor never imagined that she would actually invade Asgard!
This was his sister!
Even with the conflicts with his father Odin, and after being imprisoned for so long, she must be seething with anger that needed to be unleashed.
But, to slaughter Asgard?
That was Hela's home!
Thor thought that Hela throwing a tantrum and venting some anger was understandable.
It wouldn't be a big deal.
But, not to be so excessive and crazy, right?
Even the term "slaughter" here wasn't an exaggeration.
She truly wiped out Asgard's army!
How outrageous! Had Hela really done such a thing?
It was too much!
So, this was Hela's true face?
No wonder!
No wonder his father, Odin, chose to imprison Hela, viewing her as a great threat.
Turns out, Hela wasn't at all what he'd imagined.
He was awake!
This spoiler from the diary felt like a bucket of cold water, completely waking Thor up.
It extinguished the last flicker of fantasy he held about his sister.
It seemed Hela was indeed the disaster his father had always said she was!
He'd been too naive before!
Thor now knew what attitude he should take towards Hela.
However, Valkyrie?
Thor was very surprised. Wasn't Valkyrie already gone?
"What's going on?"
Thor frowned slightly.
He felt that this matter might not be so simple, and there might be some hidden secrets behind it.
After all, Thor admired Valkyries very much when he was a child, and even once aspired to become a Valkyrie.
It wasn't until he found out that only women could become Valkyries that he gave up.
Therefore, Thor had specifically inquired with Odin about the battle that caused almost all the Valkyries to perish.
But Odin had always been reticent about it, never giving a clear and definite explanation.
So even until now, Thor didn't know how the Valkyries had disappeared.
And as a result, the diary suddenly told him that the Valkyries hadn't disappeared!
竟然还存在着!
那么问题来了.
既然 Asgard 还存在 Valkyrie, 那么她们到底在哪里?
为什么 Thor 从未见过?
[不过现在的女武神,应该还在 Sakaar 上醉生梦死吧?在高天尊手底下充当一名拾荒者,浑浑度日.]
[当初和 Hela 的那一战,是真的给 Valkyrie 造成了梦魇一般的心理阴影.]
[这时候的她无论如何都想不到,自己有朝一日还会重返 Asgard,甚至还会成为新 Asgard 的女王吧?]
[有一说一,Valkyrie 统治 Asgard,的确是比 Thor 要靠谱多了.]
[Thor 只适合当战士,就不适合当国王.]
"Besides, Thor doesn't even have that kind of ambition!"
"After defeating the Dark Elves, he even refused the throne Odin offered!"
"Sakaar?"
Thor was undeniably surprised by this answer.
How could Valkyrie be on Sakaar?
At first, Thor didn't know about Sakaar. But after getting the diary and seeing the spoilers about Sakaar, Thor specifically researched it.
Because of its unique location, the entire planet is surrounded by cosmic channels similar to spatial turbulence.
It's usually used by major star systems to exile criminals and dump garbage, making it a rather interesting "garbage planet."
How could Asgard's Valkyrie be in a place like that?
"Still drunk and living a life of excess?"
"Are you a scavenger under the Grandmaster?"
"Could it be that the Grandmaster did something to the Valkyrie?"
But Thor soon realized he was mistaken.
The Valkyrie's current state of degradation had nothing to do with the Grandmaster, this Elder of the Universe. It was because of Hela!
"Could it be, the Valkyrie participated in the rebellion to suppress Hela back then?"
Thor fell into contemplation.
He thought it was still possible.
According to his father, Odin's, introduction, Hela had planned a rebellion because she was dissatisfied with Odin's ideals.
She tried to overthrow Odin and take his throne.
Though Odin didn't elaborate on the specifics, he simply glossed over it.
But Thor, having just seen the spoilers and knowing Hela's true power, could imagine the scale of the war.
Without a doubt, the casualties must have been immense!
So immense that the Valkyrie disappeared completely!
So immense that the survivors were traumatized, hiding away on Sakaar, barely surviving.
Hela!
She truly was a massive threat!
The Hammer God once again understood the extent of Hela's power.
And he felt the weight of it.
Knowing his father wouldn't be around for many more years, Hela would eventually be released.
Based on the strength Hela displayed in the diary, could he even handle her?
Remember, the current Thor hadn't undergone any transformation. He wasn't the real Thor yet, just the Hammer God.
Pressure!
Thor felt immense pressure.
"New Asgard?"
Immediately, Thor frowned again.
Asgard was Asgard. What was the meaning of adding "New" in front?
Could it be that in the future, another Asgard had been rebuilt?
To distinguish between them, they used "New" in front to differentiate them?
Thor thought it over and over, and he couldn't find a more reasonable possibility other than this one.
So, the question arises.
Asgard doesn't advocate for hegemony; it wouldn't engage in plunder or expansion. So, why would they rebuild Asgard in the first place?
Combining all the known clues, Thor naturally thought of a key event: Ragnarok!
Only if Asgard was destroyed would there be talk of rebuilding.
So, in the future, would the prophecy of Ragnarok really come to pass?
Would Asgard truly be destroyed by endless flames, as the prophecy foretold?
Whoosh!
Thinking of this, Thor's expression became even more unpleasant.
First, there was the rebellion of the Nine Realms, then the invasion of the Dark Elves, then the invasion of his sister, Hela, and finally, Ragnarok!
Was the future of Asgard so bumpy, so precarious?
The only comfort was that he had obtained this incredibly magical "diary," allowing him to know those cruel futures in advance.
Thus, making the appropriate response in advance!
As for letting Valkyrie become the Queen of Asgard, Thor was quickly relieved after his initial surprise.
Indeed.
Previously, Thor really yearned for the throne.
He yearned to be like his father, Odin, to become a great king, loved and praised by the people.
However, that was just before.
Ever since the conflict with Odin during the coronation ceremony, and being exiled by Odin.
Thor had experienced many things and grown a lot.
He had long lost interest in the throne.
When Thor realized there was someone better suited to lead Asgard than himself, choosing to step aside didn't seem strange.
No, it should be said that he actively refused the throne Loki offered.
Loki truly lived up to his title as the God of Mischief! He exiled Odin to Earth and made himself king, can you believe it?
It's just that Loki wasn't a very good king. He spent all his time eating, drinking, and having fun, neglecting his duties and plunging the Nine Realms into chaos again.
Even if Hela hadn't attacked, Loki would have ruined Asgard eventually.
If Thor hadn't returned in time, the brothers might not have even seen Odin for the last time.
"Loki?"
Oh, dear!
Thor didn't know what to say.
According to the diary, the Odin who had bestowed the throne upon him was actually Loki in disguise?
That scoundrel Loki actually dared to use magic to impersonate his own father?
He could even do something like that!
Even for Loki, the God of Mischief, this was going too far.
However, Thor did understand one thing.
So, Loki had exiled his father to Midgard just to get a taste of being king? Was Loki so obsessed with the throne?
Didn't he say he didn't want the throne at all, that all he wanted was to be on equal footing with him?
So, to get the throne, Loki actually did something so over the top!
The point is, if you're going to "usurp" the throne, then just get on with it and rule properly.
But Loki wasn't cut out for it at all, and he almost ruined Asgard.
That's just... frustrating.
"Last meeting?"
"What do you mean, last meeting!"
While complaining, Thor's mouth couldn't help but twitch violently.
He was agitated, unable to accept it.
The diary was very clear: Loki banished Odin after the incident with the Dark Elves.
And as a result, Odin's life was nearing its end?
What about the Dark Elves?
The diary was also very clear: it was during the Convergence of the Nine Realms!
And the Convergence was only a few years away.
Wasn't that saying Odin only had a few years left?
Even though Thor already knew the harsh reality that Odin was nearing the end of his life...
He hadn't expected Odin's time to be so short!
Thor's mood was incredibly heavy at that moment, and even his breathing felt labored.
He simply couldn't accept this fact.
But what was frustrating was that even if he couldn't accept it, Thor found he couldn't do anything about it.
