Stupid Odin

When nothing major is happening, Loki is the most dangerous one. But when something big occurs, he's on your side, and he can at least provide an alternative solution to a problem.

After Loki recounted the entire process, Downs expressed high praise for his superb acting skills.

"Well done, Loki!"

"It was His Majesty's accurate guidance," Loki replied elegantly.

On the eighth day, after those fellows in the Palace of Joy finally finished their madness, the most core deities of the Asgardian pantheon, including Paul, Thor, Hela, Tyr, Vidar, Heimdall, Frigg, Frey, Freya, and Skadi, were summoned to the Silver Palace after noon.

Downs directly had Loki and Brunhilde operate a series of mind projections, projecting the images of the opposite world that he had observed and stored in recent years in the form of a slideshow into the main hall.

"This is…"

"Amazing!"

"Incredible."

"There's another world beyond the Jötunheimr world?!"

They all exclaimed in admiration.

Several deities, led by Thor, who were famous for their 'recklessness,' even howled loudly, looking so excited that they couldn't wait to rush to the opposite world today.

"Everyone! There's another war!" Thor brandished his broken hammer.

"Shut up, Thor!" Downs couldn't help but scold his own blockhead son.

Seeing Thor covering his mouth while still beaming, Downs almost couldn't help but want to beat him up.

For these reckless fellows, guarding the world unchanged was the most boring thing.

After Ragnarok, even though that outrageous giant cow was still licking the glacier, looking like it was going to continue opening blind boxes, Thor, having tasted such an earth-shattering war, always felt that something was missing.

He originally thought that the days ahead would be spent running around, cleaning up the frost giants who were hiding, or something like that.

He never expected that there would be such a feast here.

It was false to say that Thor wasn't excited.

It was not easy for Downs to suppress the excitement of these guys before he said solemnly: "This is a completely unknown world. I have been trying to understand that world for the past ten years, but obviously, I have gained nothing. Moreover, the Jötunheimr world has always faced the threat of chaos, so I didn't announce this matter to the outside world. Now the situation is different."

"Yes! Chaos has been crippled by us!" Thor clenched his fist.

It was impossible to completely eliminate chaos, as this was originally a universe filled with chaotic power. However, after crossing this Chaos War, the power of order in the Jötunheimr world was unprecedentedly strengthened.

The Asgardian pantheon was fully capable of considering the issue of expansion.

"Recently, this world has most likely experienced a large-scale turmoil similar to Ragnarok. I observed that the size of this world has shrunk by more than half compared to before. Originally, it was larger than our world, but now it's the other way around."

"Father, what are we waiting for?"

"Intelligence!" Downs narrowed his eyes: "The larger the scale of the battle, the more we need intelligence! We need to know who the enemy is! How many are there! What are their attributes! What is their strength!"

Thor shrugged and proudly flexed his biceps.

He was immediately reprimanded by Downs: "Idiot! If everyone was like you, wanting to rush up without knowing anything, then Jötunheimr would have been finished long ago. If you only represent yourself, then your death is your death. But Thor—you are the Crown Prince of Asgard! The future Asgardian God-King! If you are not steady, do you think you can just put the entire world on the gambling table in the face of an unknown battle?"

"…" Thor finally admitted his mistake and lowered his head: "Sorry, Father God!"

Hela opened her mouth: "Your Majesty, what do we need to do?"

"Not for the time being. Last night, I had Loki use the Rainbow Bridge to throw Odin's soul over there to pave the way."

Some Asgardians knew that the Rainbow Bridge had been activated last night, but there was no alarm and no notification, so everyone didn't know what had happened.

"Odin?!"

Everyone once thought that this name was about to become history. They didn't expect that His Majesty the God-King would actually bring up his name. Since he brought it up, then this 'Odin' obviously still retained his memory and wisdom!

Paul stood up abruptly: "Downs! You know that with Odin's personality, it wouldn't be surprising if he did something outrageous, right? He will definitely sell all the information about the Jötunheimr world by any means!"

Anyone present could secretly curse Odin, but only he, as his father, could publicly scold Odin.

"Yes!"

"Too dangerous."

"The uncertainty is too high."

The gods opposed one after another.

Downs wasn't annoyed and stated his reasons: "I once sent Einherjar over there, but they didn't reply. But Odin is different, he will become my eyes."

This kind of mysterious operation involving profound magic and even fate was beyond the understanding of the gods.

Downs continued: "Besides, Odin doesn't understand the true face of this world at all. He hasn't touched any of the core laws of this world. In the entire world, only I truly grasp the laws of the world's operation. So, you can imagine what Odin will do when he goes over."

The gods suddenly imagined a lot of things: With Odin's shameless personality, he would most likely boast that he was the Asgardian God-King and that the despicable Downs had usurped the throne. He might even lie that the Asgardian pantheon had already been crippled by him in a civil war in order to encourage the leader on the other side to take action. Such a large Jötunheimr world could be seized by sending troops over at will.

This was undoubtedly a rare tonic for that world, which had just experienced heavy losses and had even shrunk in size.

Hela cautiously raised another possibility: "What if the other party doesn't fall for it?"

Freya, as Downs' mouthpiece: "Then, the other party should send Odin's soul back and express their submission!"

This was the confidence that came from having a large enough world.

According to Downs' theory, the larger a world is, the more it proves that the power of order inside is stronger. Because the strength of the power of order is directly related to how much space the orderly world can obtain in this chaotic universe.

This was the most direct judgment of the comparison of the strengths of the two worlds.

The Jötunheimr world, which had completely completed its internal integration, was at its peak morale. It was impossible for it to be on the same level as the opposite world, which had suddenly shrunk in size.

Downs threw out this dice called 'Odin', which was indeed a bit risky.

But the confidence was right here.

It was still that sentence—a conspiracy in the open is unsolvable!

A fragmented world was destined to be unable to resist the Asgardian army.

Blame it on the fact that your world is on our border!

Oh!

The fact that barbarian gods are always refreshing on the border is also a troubling and baffling thing for the gods.

Who knows if those guys are reliable neighbors?
