Of course.
All of this was merely Tony Stark's own analysis, nothing more.
The diary did not mention the real reason why Purple Sweet Potato didn't personally snatch the stones, but instead tricked Loki into doing it.
Things like fearing Odin or fearing Sorcerer Ancient One were just the guesses of Zhou Cheng, the diary's Master.
The other party did not give a definitive answer!
But no matter what, since the Tesseract—oh, no, it should be the Space Stone—is so important.
Then strengthening the defenses of the Tesseract can't be wrong.
No matter if Loki will descend again, no matter if the New York Battle will happen again, in short, no matter who it is, everyone must do their best to ensure that the Tesseract is not stolen!
This is the most important thing.
[It's just a pity, Odin is already very old, and he will probably die of old age in not many years.]
[Sorcerer Ancient One, that fellow who doesn't know how many years she has lived, has long since stopped wanting to live, and after finding a successor, she voluntarily died.]
[Otherwise, looking at the entire Earth, no, even looking at the entire Universe, who could kill Sorcerer Ancient One?]
[Just that traitor from Kamar-Taj?]
[Don't be ridiculous!]
[Ancient One just wanted to follow Eternity!]
[If she hadn't been unable to find a successor, she probably would have gone offline long ago, right?]
Died of old age!
So Odin actually died of old age?
It must be said that this answer still surprised Tony Stark.
When the diary first revealed the information about Odin's death, Playboy was actually thinking about who could have killed a big shot of Odin's caliber.
Was it Purple Sweet Potato with multiple stones or all the stones?
Or some other more powerful existence?
No matter who it was, it had to be a super big shot that everyone looked up to!
But now Playboy finally learned that no one killed Odin; Odin actually died of old age!
Tony Stark was filled with emotion about this; all things in the world will eventually perish one day, and even a generation's God King Odin cannot escape birth, aging, sickness, and death.
Then, what about the Creator Gods called Eternity?
That being is a supreme existence above Odin, and named "Eternity," so can it truly be eternal and indestructible?
And also Dormammu, the dimension demon god mentioned in the diary before, that's a great god who has transcended time!
Since it has transcended even time, does that mean it also won't die?
But unfortunately, no one gave Playboy an answer to such questions.
After a slight grumble, Tony Stark continued to read the contents of the diary.
A look of surprise appeared on his face again.
Well, Sorcerer Ancient One wasn't killed either; she just didn't want to live anymore!
The reason she had been "forcing" herself to live all this time was simply because she hadn't found a successor.
What the hell.
Tony Stark was truly bursting with things to say; was she really tired of living?
How many years did this Sorcerer Ancient One live?!
Playboy naturally didn't know the answer to this question, but Sorcerer Ancient One's power and defying nature were once again vividly displayed.
Looking at the entire Universe, who could kill Ancient One?
Doesn't this mean that Sorcerer Ancient One is a super big shot of the highest caliber, even in the entire Universe?
And that's not even her most amazing quality; the most amazing thing is that Sorcerer Ancient One is actually Eternity's person?
Eternity?
That's a Creator Gods!
So Sorcerer Ancient One was actually following the Creator Gods?
Hiss!
Tony Stark couldn't help but gasp.
Is this Sorcerer Ancient One's level? It truly is beyond what ordinary people can imagine.
Her background is indeed too defying!
It's just one thing: why does one have to die to follow Eternity?
Judging by the tone of the diary, this death here shouldn't mean a fake death, right?
But it shouldn't be a true death either, right?
After all, how can one follow Eternity after dying? Is it in the form of a soul or something else?
Having had the diary for so long, Playboy naturally had a different understanding of death.
At the very least, Tony Stark already knew that souls exist.
And that after the body dies, the soul can continue to exist in some form.
Just like Valhalla of Asgard mentioned earlier.
That's where the bravely fallen Asgardian warriors go after death.
So is Sorcerer Ancient One's "death" a similar situation?
Is that why Sorcerer Ancient One intentionally died at the hands of that Kamar-Taj traitor?
"Father died of old age?"
Thor, in front of another diary, couldn't help but relax his tense heart slightly.
After the spoilers in the diary were successively verified, he couldn't have been more anxious.
After all, the diary said that his entire family, except for himself, had all died.
And just now, the diary also spoiled Loki's death; that unlucky child was strangled to death by the frequently mentioned Purple Sweet Potato.
Although he still didn't know when this life-and-death struggle happened, or under what circumstances.
But Thor had secretly made a decision: he must stop Purple Sweet Potato!
Although he currently had no idea how to do it, no matter what, knowing the mastermind was a good thing.
As for the deaths of his Father and Mother, the diary had never mentioned them, making Thor extremely anxious.
Until this moment, the diary finally spoiled this crucial piece of information.
Thor immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
His Father did not die an unnatural death, but died of old age.
Thinking about it, it made sense; who in the entire Universe would be an opponent to an existence of his Father's caliber?
How could he be killed by a single person?
That Zhou Cheng really should have been clearer, making him worry for nothing.
However, very quickly, Thor's recently relaxed brows suddenly furrowed into a knot again.
Odin dying of old age was indeed good news.
But Odin not having many years left to live was, without a doubt, bad news!
"No, it won't be."
"It won't be like this!"
Thor shook his head repeatedly, completely unable to accept any of this, and unwilling to believe it in his heart.
But at the same time, some details that Thor had previously overlooked and not noticed naturally came to mind.
In recent years, Odin's way of doing things had indeed changed quite a bit.
And he truly looked much older, and upon reflection, Odin had indeed lived for a very long time.
But no matter what, he wouldn't die of old age within a few years, would he?
How could that be!
Absolutely not!
Thor screamed continuously in his heart, his eyes fixed on the diary, not moving, wanting to get more related information from it.
It was just a pity.
At this crucial moment, the diary suddenly stopped updating, coming to an abrupt halt without any warning.
This made Thor extremely frustrated, but he had no way to do anything about it.
"No, I must return to Asgard immediately."
Standing up with a whoosh, Thor felt an unprecedented sense of urgency.
He truly wished he could rush to Odin's side immediately to check on his Father's condition.
Besides that.
Thor also couldn't stand by and watch Loki destroy Jotunheim!
Fandral and the others were completely unaware of this matter, and moreover, Loki had always been cunning; Fandral, Sif, and the others truly couldn't outsmart Loki!
Thor had to go back himself.
But the key problem was that, even now, Thor still couldn't lift his mjolnir.
Of course.
The method for lifting mjolnir had already been explained in the diary.
One had to pass the test of character and morality, without flaws.
But how could he make his character pass and be flawless?
With Thor's intelligence, it was naturally impossible for him to come up with an answer anytime soon.
But even so, Thor couldn't do nothing.
Without any delay, he once again rushed to his mjolnir and began a new round of attempts.
The result was, without a doubt, that mjolnir remained as heavy as a mountain to Thor, completely unmovable.
"Father, why are you doing this to me?"
Thor felt like he was really getting depressed; was there something wrong with his morality? No!
His great Thor had always made outstanding contributions to the peace and stability of the Nine Realms, having quelled countless troublemakers.
How could he have moral flaws?
Was it because he had an argument with his Old Man and called his Old Man senile?
But he already knew he was wrong!
Why still not!
Thor couldn't have been more anxious; he was truly desperate to rush back to Asgard to stop Loki!
However, Thor would never have imagined that even if he could lift his mjolnir, he wouldn't be able to go back at all.
…
Asgard, Bifrost Bridge.
Ding-ding-dang!
Bang, bang, bang!
Crisp metal clangs rang out continuously, accompanied by whooshing sounds and the thud of fists and feet.
It turned out to be a group of fully armed Asgardian warriors, besieging five people.
Which five people?
The Warriors Three, the female warrior Sif, and Heimdall!
There's no need to mention The Warriors Three.
These four had secretly gone down to Earth to bring Thor back, intending to depose Loki from the throne.
They also worked with the fellow who picked up mjolnir on Earth to defeat Destroyer, ruining Loki's plans.
Loki naturally couldn't let them off.
As for Heimdall?
Loki had actually already shown his true colors to him, even using the Casket of Ancient Winters to freeze him into an icicle!
This was to secretly allow Laufey and the Frost Giants to infiltrate Asgard.
However, Heimdall was truly fierce; even after being frozen by the Casket of Ancient Winters, he managed to forcefully break free and kill the Frost Giants guarding the Bifrost Bridge.
Then he teleported The Warriors Three back.
In the original movie, Thor and The Warriors Three returned together, so they were able to control the situation.
But now?
Only The Warriors Three returned, and they could barely make any significant impact on the overall situation in Asgard.
In fact, they couldn't even leave the Bifrost Bridge before Loki and his men ambushed them halfway.
Admittedly, their strength was indeed great, but no matter how strong, there were only four of them.
The heavily injured Heimdall was already unable to fight, leaving only The Warriors Three.
But they only held out for a moment before, without any surprise, they were defeated and captured by the Asgardian warriors.
"How interesting, the famous The Warriors Three and the female warrior Sif."
"Oh, and of course, the legendary Heimdall, a person even my Father respects immensely."
"Sending people like you to prison, I must say, is truly very amusing."
Loki walked forward at this moment, scanning the tightly restrained group, a characteristic sinister smile on his face.
"Loki, even if you ascended to the throne through despicable means, you will never win the hearts of Asgard's people!"
"Thor will return sooner or later!"
The hot-tempered female warrior Sif glared furiously at Loki and roared.
"No, it won't be long before I become a king beloved by all."
"By then, no one will remember Thor; everyone will only praise my great achievements."
"You all just watch closely!"
Loki was full of confidence.
"Loki, King Odin might be in danger, Asgard might be in danger!"
"Yes, I don't like you, but this has nothing to do with you and me; it concerns all of Asgard, and I hope you take it seriously!"
The more rational Fandral, remembering Thor's warning, began to admonish Loki in a low voice.
Loki's heart immediately stirred slightly.
Did Fandral know something?
According to his upcoming plan, Asgard would indeed be in danger.
His beloved Father Odin would indeed be in danger!
However, time was already very pressing, and Loki's plan was about to be executed.
Although he still had some doubts, Loki didn't have time to figure them out.
Everything could wait until his grand plan was completed; then he could interrogate them slowly.
"Take them away! Lock them up!"
Loki completely ignored Fandral's words and ruthlessly gave this order to the Asgardian warriors present.
"Loki, I'm not speaking carelessly, you must believe me."
"Loki!"
Fandral shouted at Loki continuously.
However, Loki's figure vanished in a flash, transforming into a ray of light.
That's right.
The Loki in front of them was not the real Loki, but merely a projection Loki had created using magic.
So where was Loki's true body at this moment?
Without a doubt, he was naturally lurking inside Odin's room.
He only intended to create the illusion of Laufey assassinating Odin; he didn't actually want Odin to die.
So after letting Laufey in, he had been silently guarding Odin's side, keeping an eye on the situation there.
Just as he had captured The Warriors Three and Heimdall, Laufey had already successfully infiltrated.
And he had also injured Loki's Mother, Frigga.
Everything was proceeding according to plan.
