Odin, a wise and experienced man, was well aware of the purpose of the Eternals' presence on Earth, as well as the existence and birth of the Celestials.

However, the Odin in the MCU is not the same Odin from the comics who can fight the gods one-on-one.

He knew very well that such divine manifestations were something neither he nor Asgard could prevent.

Forcibly intervening would only bring annihilation upon Asgard.

Although he calls himself the guardian of the Nine Realms, Odin isn't that crazy to risk Asgard's future to fight the gods for the sake of Earth.

Therefore, he could only turn a blind eye to the Eternals and maintain a superficial relationship with them.

Hundreds of years ago, after the rise of the Ancient One and the end of Asgard's actual rule, Odin became even less interested in interfering in Earth's affairs.

“It’s impossible for invaders from other dimensions. Although that Supreme Being is at odds with us, she will not allow those who are solely invaders to enter this universe,” Ajak said, shaking his head.

The "Supreme One" she was referring to was naturally the Ancient One.

However, Ajax is also somewhat strange when it comes to the Ancient One. She, who possesses infinite life, is also one of the witnesses to the Ancient One's rise.

Therefore, she was very aware of the Ancient One's power.

Although the Ancient One is very young compared to the Eternals, in terms of strength, all the Eternals combined might not be enough to defeat her.

In Ajax's view, given the Ancient One's abilities, the possibility that she would not know about the gods or the divine manifestation is extremely low.

However, this supreme being never had any conflict or interaction with them because of this matter, nor did he ever do anything to try to stop the divine manifestation.

This puzzled Ajax.

However, since this person never caused them any trouble, Ajax naturally wouldn't go out of his way to have too much contact with him.

However, she believed that invaders from other dimensions would definitely not be able to bypass the surveillance of this powerful being.

Therefore, external dimensional intrusion can be ruled out immediately.

"So those are the Inhumans and the Kree?" Icarus interjected.

It's unlikely to be a Kree either, as she left Earth months before the events occurred, and Dracula went with her!

Makari shook his head, then gestured as he spoke.

Why did she suddenly appear and snatch the broken steel sword from Josie just minutes after she took it out in Java?

It was because she had her eye on this sword for a long time.

However, when the sword was originally in Dracula's hands, Macari was still quite wary of this powerful vampire.

So she simply had Phantoss make a tracking device and put it on the sword early on, so that if the progenitor of vampires ever got into trouble, she could take the sword away immediately.

When Dracula first gave the sword to Josie, he hadn't left Earth yet. After Josie got the sword, he put it into his system space and basically never took it out again, so Macari didn't dare to make any moves.

After Dracula left, she could no longer find the whereabouts of the broken steel sword.

It wasn't until they were in Java that Josie took out the sword, and she discovered its whereabouts. She arrived a few minutes later and took the sword away.

Because she took the sword and left, she didn't hear what Josie said to Vito and the others later; otherwise, she would have made Josie her prime suspect.

However, right now, Macari couldn't even think about that, because in her eyes, Josie and the others were just ordinary mortals who could not possibly pose a threat to Zhuke and Golden Hook.

....................................

While the Eternals were discussing who had silently kidnapped Zhuke and Jinhu, on the other side of the world, in the Indian Ocean, it was the dead of night, and Josie was fast asleep.

During the period when they started targeting the Eternals, Josie didn't actually get much sleep.

After all, targeting this particular group is a dangerous matter if there is any mistake.

So he made a lot of special preparations for this—for example, he loaded a large number of high-yield nuclear bombs for destroying evidence on the transport submarine. Once those dozens of nuclear bombs exploded, the entire Amazon basin might not recover for decades.

Fortunately, due to his practice of the Five Elements Technique and his long-term use of the Fountain of Youth, sleeping less didn't make him feel tired.

But being able to get a good night's sleep is definitely not a bad thing.

That night, after Josie fell asleep, some unexpected things happened.

A golden figure appeared in his consciousness.

"Who are you?" In the world of consciousness, Josie looked at the figure that seemed strangely familiar and was shrouded in golden light, and asked with a deep frown.

By the way, he seemed to have seen this figure before, when he was almost controlled by Zhuke.

But he forgot about it after he regained consciousness, and only now, seeing it again, has he remembered it.

"I am Tiamat, child, I need your help!" The figure in the golden light spoke in an extremely kind tone.

Chapter 214 Night Talk

Late at night, Josie was suddenly awakened from her sleep.

He then stared blankly out the bedroom window at the dark and deep sea under the moonlight for a long time.

Tiamat...

Is it really that great Mother Earth?

Josie wasn't entirely sure, but the overwhelming sense of kindness and warmth the other person gave him in the dream had already convinced him to believe it to some extent.

And what Tiamat asked him to do was indeed in line with the character of this Mother Earth.

What does Tiamat want Josie to do?

It's both simple and difficult: eliminate the Eternals and prevent her birth, which is the occurrence of the Divine Manifestation.

As a Celestial being, Tiamat knew from the moment she came to consciousness what her birth would bring to Earth.

In the original storyline, if the Eternals hadn't chosen to stop Tiamat's appearance for various reasons, and if Tiamat hadn't seized the opportunity to commit suicide through Cersei, Earth might have truly perished.

Currently, the Eternals have not yet conceived the idea of ​​preventing Tiamat's divine manifestation, so they are the most important obstacle to Tiamat's birth and must be eliminated.

In Tiamat's mind, the creatures on Earth are her children, while the Eternals are merely tools sent by her other celestial companions; their lives and deaths are of no importance to her.

As an embryo that is not yet fully formed and has difficulty even communicating with ordinary humans, there is not much she can do besides watching everything happen, once she is fully mature.

To accomplish all this, she had no choice but to rely on external forces.

The fact that Zhuke had previously used his mental power to sweep across the world gave Tiamat an opportunity.

As creations of the gods, the Eternals are themselves excellent vessels for the gods' power.

However, Tiamat's current mental power is still relatively weak, making it impossible for her to forcibly control the Eternals. She can only exert some influence on them under specific circumstances.

Zhu Ke's explosive power was such a special case.

The original reason was supposed to be the ability to control humans, but it became a spiritual bridge for Tiamat to communicate with Josie.

Tiamat did not explain why she chose Josie, and Josie had no way of knowing either.

The impact of Zhuke's power outburst was limited; Tiamat only had time to transmit some simple information, which couldn't even be transmitted to Josie while he was awake. It was only when Josie was asleep that it was transmitted to him through his subconscious.

However, it's not impossible to contact Tiamat again.

All Josie needs to do is find the place where the gods appear, excavate Tiamat's true form, and make direct contact with it.

Among the messages Tiamat left him was the location of her true form.

Finding the place where the gods appeared is easy, but excavating Tiamat's true form is much more difficult.

Don't be fooled by Tiamat's body emerging from the ground so quickly in the movie; it was actually the result of a series of pre-divine appearances—before the true divine appearance, massive, world-class earthquakes occurred all over the world, caused by Tiamat's body rising continuously.

Currently, her true form is still buried very deep, with the shallowest part being tens of kilometers below the surface and the deepest part even reaching the deepest part of the Earth's core.

This is why the birth of a god can lead to the destruction of a planet—if the Earth's core explodes, how can the planet not be destroyed?

What does it mean to be tens of kilometers underground?

In the future, the recorded depth of drilling will be 12345 meters, achieved by Mauritius drilling an oil well on Sakhalin Island in 2011.

The Earth's crust is only 17 kilometers thick.

With Josie's current abilities, it's not an easy task to explore to that depth.

Even if we used robots for everything, we don't know how many robots would have to be destroyed.

Moreover, eliminating the Eternals is easier said than done.

Preventing Tiamat's creation is even more difficult.

Thinking of this, Josie couldn't help but sigh.

Tiamat's sudden outburst has left him unable to fall asleep, even as he tosses and turns.

Reluctantly, I got up, dressed, and went up to the deck to get some fresh air.

However, as soon as Josie stepped onto the deck, she found that there were already people there.

It's Carter.

"Why can't you sleep either?" With Carter's sharp hearing, she heard Josie the moment she stepped onto the deck and asked without turning her head, while taking a swig from the bottle in her hand.

Josie glanced at the label on the bottle and her brow twitched.

Good heavens, the water of life—a type of vodka originally from the European country of Padma, with an alcohol content of 96%.

Although Josie doesn't drink, she doesn't forbid her subordinates from drinking outside of work hours, so there is a bar on the ship that has almost every kind of alcohol in the world.

The water of life is no exception.
