Chapter 754 Opening the Treasure House
"beg me?"

The dwarf king Aitri laughed out loud as if he had heard a funny joke, his beard stained with wine shaking constantly. Perhaps because he was drunk, he couldn't hold the wine jug in his hand, and it fell to the ground and broke with a crack.

Loki calmly moved to the side, avoiding the splashing wine.

"The little princess of Asgard actually has a day to ask me for help. This is big news, hahahaha!"

After a while, as if he had laughed enough, Ai Cui wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and asked with a smile on his face.

"Okay, okay, tell me what you want me to make for you. This is the only thing you can ask me for. Is it because your pair of daggers are not working well?"

"That's not the case." Loki shook his head. "I just want you to help me build something that can help me trick Thor."

"Prank the Hammer God? That's a good idea." Ai Cui leaned his hands on the armrests, looking very excited.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Tell me in detail!"

Loki showed a sly smile, but anyone who knew her well would have noticed that there was no smile in her eyes, and not a trace of her unique cunning.

"Don't worry about that for now, Uncle Atri..." Loki snapped his fingers, and a green smoke rose from the ground, forming a vortex. When the smoke dissipated, a jar of wine half a person's height stood next to it.

"A small profit is not enough to show respect. When asking for help, you must be polite. This is the fine wine of the Fairy Palace. I remember that Uncle Ai Cui was craving this."

"Oh~" Etri's eyes widened like bells. "Quick, quick, quick! Little princess, just give me this treasure, and I can beat Thor, not to mention Gungnir, for you."

Loki said nothing, but touched the wine jar. After hesitating for a moment, he used magic to send the wine jar to Aitri's hands.

As soon as the wine jar floated in front of Ai Cui, he grabbed it with both hands, slapped off the mud seal on it, and then lay on his back and drank it in big gulps.

Looking at Aitri drinking happily, a trace of guilt flashed in Loki's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a determination. He just waited quietly for Aitri to finish his drink.

"Ha!" Ai Cui drank half of the wine in the jar in one breath. He wiped his mouth and asked curiously.

"This is unlike you, little princess. You weren't so well-behaved before. Today, not only did you give me the reward first, you even stood there and waited for me to finish my drink. It's really unusual."

As soon as he finished saying this, Ai Cui felt dizzy. He felt that it was probably because of the alcohol. After all, he had already drunk quite a lot of wine before drinking this jar of wine, and he was also aware that the wine in Qixian Palace was very strong.

Ai Cui shook his head, trying to sober himself up. After all, he had to do something after accepting someone's gift. If he got drunk like this, he would probably have to lie down for three or two days before getting up.

But it would have been fine if he hadn't shaken his head. Once he shook his head, Ai Cui felt even more dizzy. Even the Loki in front of him turned into three or four. This was a bit wrong.

"What... is going on?" Ai Cui covered his head, feeling dizzy and finally collapsed on the throne.

Loki walked to the throne and murmured softly, "I'm sorry, Uncle Etri..."

…"boom!"

The colorful light curtain dissipated, and Loki returned to Asgard again. Waiting for her in front of the Rainbow Bridge was still the unchanging Heimdall.

"Back so soon?" Heimdall exclaimed in surprise. "I thought you'd stay there for three or four days."

"Uncle Etri is drunk again," Loki said, his expression resigned. "You know Heimdall. Once a dwarf gets drunk, even lightning can't revive him. Uncle Etri is especially tough. I have no choice but to return."

Heimdall agreed with this. The dwarves were indeed skilled, but their personalities and attitudes towards life were indeed bad. They were all eccentric, and those who stayed in Asgard were the ones who could get along best with outsiders.

"Well, it looks like your prank is going to fail this time." Heimdall wanted to comfort Loki, but he didn't expect the latter to rush past him without giving him a chance to continue.

"Let's talk next time Heimdall, I have some things to do."

After saying this, without even listening to Heimdall's reply, he turned into a puff of green smoke and disappeared without a trace.

Heimdall looked surprised. Although Loki was naughty in the past, she was also a good girl. Her etiquette was taught by Frigga, and she rarely acted so rudely.

"Perhaps there really is something I need to be busy with?" Heimdall could only console himself in this way.

The scene changed, and Loki had once again arrived at the gate of Odin's treasury. It had taken him quite a while to go back and forth from going to the dungeon to see Laufey to going to Nidavellir to find the Dwarf King.

It is already night in Asgard, so it is much quieter in Asgard than during the day, especially around Odin's Treasury. Due to its special nature, Odin's Treasury has always been rarely guarded.

Because there are so many protective magics set up in Odin's Treasury. Not to mention others, the two rows of statues around the corridor leading to Odin's Treasury are all magic puppets. Once someone wants to break into the treasury, these puppets will be activated.

Loki doesn't have to worry about these puppets because she is the princess of Asgard. No one cares where she appears in Asgard, so she will not trigger the attacks of these puppets.

The only difficult problem for her was the door to Odin's treasury, and this problem could be solved today.

The only person who has the key to Odin's Treasury is Odin himself, but Odin's Treasury also needs maintenance on a regular basis, and once maintenance is required, the door of the Treasury needs to be opened. You cannot expect Odin to be present every time.

Therefore, the second key in the dark is in the hands of the Dwarf King. Every time the Odin Treasury is repaired, the Dwarf King, the creator, will be present. One is to open the door of the treasury, and the other is to repair it. After all, he built it, and no one knows how to repair it better than him.

Some people think that this will leave loopholes? Actually, it won't, because the protective magic in the Asgard will not allow outsiders to wander around inside, and the dwarves are among the outsiders.

If you want to enter Asgard, you must get the consent of Odin, the King of Gods. Anyone who enters Asgard without his approval is considered an invasion. Once someone invades, a bunch of protective magic will be triggered. At that time, let alone opening the treasure house, even survival will be a problem.

It can be said that Odin took all necessary precautions, even guarding against the dwarves who were on good terms with Asgard, but he never imagined that his family would one day betray him.

Loki stroked the door of the treasure house in front of her with a complicated expression. She sighed lightly, and finally made up her mind and began to write and draw on the door with her fingers.
