Take everything out."
"What things?"
"Loki!"
"Okay, I remember now!"
Loki opened the Destroyer armor, returned the Gungnir,
and then retrieved the Casket of Ancient Winters, the Frost Giants' sacred relic, from his personal storage.
He also pulled out an enormous gauntlet.
Six gems were embedded in it.
Aaron: ???
I can understand the Casket of Ancient Winters, but why did you bring out a gauntlet that's purely decorative?
What's it for? To hit people with?
Aaron could tell that this thing was also made of Uru metal.
Strictly speaking, this thing was real; Thanos' gauntlet was made using this as a mold.
It's just that all the gems on it were decorative.
Aaron guessed that Odin might have once had the idea of collecting the Infinity Stones, but because of special stones like the Soul Stone, he chose to put the gauntlet in storage and intentionally "leave" all the Infinity Stones outside.
Odin glanced at the gauntlet, gave Loki a strange look, coughed twice, and quietly hid the gauntlet.
"This thing is just a decoration. Besides giants, no one in Asgard can use it."
He casually explained.
But Aaron looked at the Destroyer armor, which had returned to its original state after Loki left, measuring at least two and a half meters tall.
Do you dare say that this thing, from its appearance, can be used by a normal person?
Odin immediately picked up the Gungnir and silently willed it, and the Destroyer armor retreated as if intelligent.
"You like this thing too?"
Noticing Aaron's gaze, Odin immediately changed the subject, "If you like it, he can let you study it for a while. Actually, it's nothing important."
Loki, Thor: !!
No, we're your biological (adopted) sons, and we've never seen you this generous!
Thor only has Mjolnir, which was also taken from the vault.
Now, poof~ oh, it's gone!
Loki... has nothing.
Mainly because there's nothing suitable for him.
The Casket of Ancient Winters would be suitable, but Odin wouldn't dare!
Aaron, hearing this, didn't stand on ceremony. "I'll take a look when I have time."
Odin nodded, holding the Casket of Ancient Winters, and said with emotion:
"This thing is the treasure of Jotunheim. When the Frost Giants invaded Earth, I defeated them in what is now your Norway, painstakingly took this thing from Laufey, and maintained a thousand years of peace."
"It contains extremely powerful energy. If released, it's enough to turn a nation into a kingdom of ice in an instant!"
As he spoke, Odin handed the Casket of Ancient Winters to Aaron, "Want to take a look?"
Aaron took the item, still puzzled.
On one hand, he said this thing was very dangerous, and on the other, he handed it to him without any caution.
He increasingly suspected that old man Odin had some devious plot.
Not to mention he had no relation to Asgard; even if he were Odin's half-brother, he couldn't possibly receive such treatment.
Just look at Thor and Loki.
Oh, and Hela, who was imprisoned for two or three millennia.
They have the most say in what kind of person Odin is in their eyes.
A loving father? Well, just a little bit more than a ruthless one.
Suddenly,
Aaron connected the dots and gradually guessed Odin's intention.
Thinking of this, he played with the Casket of Ancient Winters without any politeness.
Who would dare call this old fox Odin stupid? Loki? He's probably the one who's been calculated all along!
Thor and Loki gnashed their teeth with envy.
Treatment even the biological sons don't get!
Who can they complain to!
Odin continued, "Sif, this is Aaron's first time in Asgard, and he's probably not familiar with it yet. You can show him around."
Loki instinctively raised his hand: "Father King, I promise I'm familiar with and clearly remember every blade of grass and tree in Asgard. I can take this... uncle to visit the beautiful Asgard, the best home he should have!"
Odin's remaining eye glared at him, "Enough, stop spouting nonsense. Come with me immediately!"
Then he looked at the gloating Thor, "And you, come along!"
Odin nodded to Aaron, then left with Thor and Loki.
Sif shrugged, "Well, you know, Loki made quite a mistake this time. Of course, Thor isn't far behind."
"They might not be able to attend your celebration banquet until they realize their mistakes."
Aaron gave Odin's retreating figure a deep look, then gave Sif a strange look, always feeling that things weren't that simple.
But he didn't care!
As long as the benefits were tangible, that's all that mattered.
Aaron flipped his right hand, and the Casket of Ancient Winters instantly vanished.
Sif was surprised, "You also know spatial storage magic?"
"It's simple, isn't it?"
Simple? Are you sure?
Sif rolled her eyes. She had also tried to learn magic, but that thing... wasn't easy.
Even as a Vanir goddess, she ultimately chose the path of a warrior.
However, thinking of the royal bloodline flowing within Aaron, she no longer found it strange.
After all, that was the most precious bloodline inheritance in the Nine Realms!
[Ice Control: Detected similar ability has been merged. You now possess a more powerful ice ability. Once fully unleashed, it is enough to freeze a star!]
[Ice Elementalization: You have gained the ability to transform into an ice body. In this state, you are immune to telepathy and ice abilities.]
[Absolute Zero: You can unleash the power to freeze "space-time" within a certain range, but this will consume a large amount of energy. Please use with caution.]
Aaron nodded in satisfaction, excellent!
Immunity to telepathy was a minor thing. Although he hadn't tried it, he strongly suspected that even without gaining any similar abilities, he wouldn't be affected by telepathy.
After all, the Primal Crucible was him.
Who could control the Primal Crucible?
If such a character truly existed, then without further ado, they should quickly go beyond the fourth wall and wreak havoc. What conceptual gods, what narrative layers, wouldn't even dare to breathe in front of them.
Aaron valued Absolute Zero more.
It was somewhat similar to Esdeath's "Maha-Padma" in Akame ga Kill! (A super healing anime!! Dog head for protection).
But Esdeath could only use it once a day, while he, theoretically, could use it many times as long as he had enough energy.
Perhaps, this was the source power of the energy within the Casket of Ancient Winters.
How could an artifact on the same level as the Eternal Flame be inferior?
Even if it only froze a small area of space-time, it would be enough to do many things.
Next, Aaron followed Sif and visited many places.
Originally, Sif was quite reserved after learning that Aaron was Odin's "brother."
But when she found that Aaron still conversed with her very casually, Sif lost that sense of awe and nervousness.
Only curiosity remained.
Curiosity about Aaron's strength, and curiosity about Aaron's experiences.
When she once again asked how Aaron had spent his previous twenty-two years in solitude,
Aaron directly sighed, covering his forehead.
Sif immediately became nervous, "Okay, I won't ask anymore. Perhaps that period wasn't pleasant."
"Besides studying, what else is there to talk about?"
Aaron shook his head, speechless.
Pleasant? If you really want to say so, it's not wrong.
Nine years of compulsory education, plus high school and university.
Twenty-two years spent studying.
Then, walking along, he was transported to the Marvel Universe.
Compared to life here, those twenty-two years indeed couldn't be called pleasant?
Shaking his head,
Aaron looked at the magnificent buildings floating in the sky in the distance.
Both their design and style were quite grand and spectacular.
"Do you have large-scale anti-gravity technology here?"
Sif nodded as if it were obvious, "We mastered anti-gravity technology ten thousand years ago. That's very basic, isn't it?"
Aaron nodded, pointing to one of the floating buildings,
"What's that?"
"According to Midgard's terminology, that's a hospital."
Sif glanced and said casually.
Aaron's eyes lit up.
He suddenly remembered,
Even though Asgard still played with cold weapons, they had actually already developed quantum technology.
Admittedly, they hadn't created black technologies like Pym Particles, but that didn't mean they were inferior to Pym.
Just like Thanos, who, after obtaining Pym Particles, was quickly able to mass-produce them.
For Asgard, which had normalized quantum technology, it was even less of a problem.
"If I get the chance, I should plunder everything here!"
Once this thought appeared, it could no longer be suppressed.
Aside from a few black technologies, Earth's conventional top-tier military-grade or laboratory-grade technology might be like children's toys in Asgard.
To Aaron, Asgard was a treasure waiting for him to excavate!
The technologies currently in use, or those that were lost, could be completely transformed into his power through the Primal Crucible.
Aaron immediately made a request, "Can I go inside and take a look?"
"Of course, that's your right." Sif readily agreed.
With Odin's command, besides Frigga's private chambers and Odin's vault, Aaron could go anywhere else!
