American comics: I became a god at the beginning, I chose to practice both science and magic

"Actually, we don't know much about it. We only know that it's a mineral extracted from Antimatter. I've heard from older people that it can contain and release almost any form of energy, and can even amplify it. It's a material more suitable for adding magic than Uru metal."

"Can you forge it, then?" asked Dane.

"I'm not sure. I need to study it carefully. Wait a minute..."

As Aitri said this, he hurriedly ran to find the other dwarven craftsmen and kicked the drunk guys awake one by one.

Chapter 1104: New Armor Design

Aitri is indeed the foremost dwarf craftsman and the forger of Asgard's royal weapons.

He had a huge passion for forging. Ever since he got the Dagon Stone, he stopped drinking and holding banquets, and devoted himself to research for several days without sleep or food.

Finally figured out the idea behind forging this stone.

"We have some ideas. Dagonite is a very good material, but you are going to forge a full body armor. It would be a bit wasteful to only use Dagonite."

The dwarves are already quite experienced in forging artifact-level full body armor, and the Destroyer Armor is the culmination of that experience.

When this armor was first made, the Celestial Gods were used as the imaginary enemy, so the source of power inside it is the Eternal Fire.

This is a flame that is said to be able to burn forever. At its highest temperature, it can reach the temperature of the core of the sun. Even among the gods, only a very small number are immune to this high temperature.

The Celestial Gods are a whole ethnic group. Although they are generally powerful, there are strong and weak ones among them.

The strong can create the entire universe and even surpass the creator god. They are the strong at the multiverse level.

But a powerful being like 28 generally does not stay in a single universe, but wanders among multiple different universes.

Generally speaking, the strength of the gods who stay in a certain universe for a long time will not exceed the level of a single universe.

And during the heyday of Odin's Spring and Autumn Period, he could still fight against opponents of this level by wearing the Destroyer Armor.

As for why Odin had opposed the Celestials in the past and even made a special artifact armor to deal with them, Dane didn't know.

He was not interested in going into details. It was enough for him to know that Aitri had the ability to make good use of this Dagon Stone.

At this time, Ai Cui said, "I heard that you plan to integrate technological artifacts into this armor. I suggest not to do so."

"Because technology and magic operate differently. Although I haven't been to other civilized worlds outside the Nine Realms for a long time, I know that the speed of technological updates is always changing."

"But once an enchanted weapon is formed, it's extremely difficult to alter its structure. This is because it's inherently strong. If you destroy this property, it's no more special than ordinary metal and is effectively useless."

Dane understood what he meant and was thinking about it carefully.

The reason why he had this request before was because he considered that he might add more functions to the armor in the future.

Take the battle suit he is wearing now, for example. Although the style and shape have not changed much, the functions have been updated for more than ten generations.

In the past, this battle suit could only be used for activities on the ground, but later it was equipped with functions such as anti-gravity flight, underwater stealth, deep space operations, high temperature resistance, and anti-freeze.

"But what if the new armor is still one-piece and can't keep up with my needs?"

Ai Cui thought for a moment and replied, "I can reserve a few blank function slots for you. When you wish, you can add other functions to them."

"For enchantment?"

"Yes."

"But I'd prefer it to be equipped with technological functions. Can it be made to accommodate technological modules?"

Ai Cui: “…” He has never done this before.

He had a headache and said, "Wait a minute, let's discuss it."

Dwarves have rarely created technological artifacts, as they believe magic is more trustworthy than technology.

But Dane could clearly see that the entire Nidavi ring actually used a lot of high technology, but it was cleverly concealed by ancient shapes.

So as long as the dwarves are willing, they can integrate magic and technology.

Several days passed like this, and Aicui found Dane again and proposed the idea they had come up with.

The new solution surprised Dane: "Is this nanotechnology?"

"What's nanotechnology?" Ai Cui, not understanding Earth's vocabulary, explained, "This is a new idea we've been working on lately."

"Although Uru metal is nearly indestructible once formed, it can be reshaped through magic."

This is reflected in the Destroyer armor, which can adapt and transform itself according to the wearer's height and body shape, from one or two meters to one or two thousand meters.

This is the superiority of enchanted weapons, which goes against the principles of conventional science.

"Dagonite can change its form under the influence of energy. By utilizing the properties of these two materials, we can fuse them and create a metal that is like water and can shape itself according to your thoughts."

Dane thought that although this was not nanotechnology, it was not far behind.

He already knew what the dwarf's new plan was. After all, Tony Stark in the original timeline had already demonstrated the superiority of the nano suit.

Sure enough, Atre's idea was the same as Dane imagined.

As long as the raw materials for making armor are forged into fluid metal, they can then be molded into the structure the user wants, just like kneading clay.

This allows you to add versatility at any time without changing the armor's integrity.

However, there are also defects. Once it is made into fluid metal, the speed of wearing it in an emergency will be much slower than those directly shaped armors.

Even if the template information of the armor is prepared in advance, the whole process from summoning to reading the information to putting on the armor is still a bit cumbersome.

But this is nothing for Dane, because he has time-related equipment. At worst, he can just speed up his own time and get dressed instantly.

"Let's go with this plan."

"Since you've decided," Aitri nodded, "Do you have any requirements for the design of the initial version of the armor?"

Dane directly projected the drawings he had designed in advance into the air.

It was a fully integrated close-fitting armor, different from the suit Dane was wearing now. It looked more like a suit than armor.

The battle suit he is wearing now is called a battle suit. In fact, because it has added many functions, it actually looks rather bloated, just like the Thor's Hammer Assault Power Armor in Halo.

The overall weight is measured in tons. Even if it is equipped with an anti-gravity system, it will still cause slight vibrations when walking on the road.

The dwarves' technology is more inclined towards primitive forging, but due to the maturity of enchantment technology, the armor they create can be very close-fitting, and looks like the very slim armor in the game.

Dane would not ignore this advantage, so the armor he designed looks quite light overall, but it does not fit the skin completely like Wakanda's battle suit, and a lot of space is reserved between the body and the armor.

However, he didn't have any artistic talent and only drew the most basic requirements of the armor, so it looked like a line drawing, which looked quite perfunctory and plain.

Etri looked dissatisfied.

"It doesn't look pretty at all, just leave it to us!"

Dane reminded: "But the foundation must be based here."

"Got it!" Ai Cui said, and hurried away again.

Chapter 1105: Seeking death?

When dwarves forge weapons, the enchantment and design stages take a lot of time, but the shaping step is actually the simplest and fastest.

You just need to melt the metal that has been enchanted and smelted in advance into molten iron, and then pour it into a special mold to form it. If you have not seen the long preparations before, and only see the last step, it will give people the feeling that the simplicity is the best.

As the dwarves began to get busy, Dane and Thor became idle.

From then on, Dane just needs to wait patiently. In order to prevent Thanos from suddenly attacking Nidave during this period, Dane plans to keep an eye on this place during this period.

If Thanos still chose to come and kill the whole family in person, he could just save himself the trouble and take the head directly.

But it was boring to just sit there, and Dane didn't want to waste this time, so he discussed another matter with Thor.

"Thor, are there any extremely desolate, almost dying worlds in the Nine Realms?"

"Indeed, why are you asking?"

"Look what this is?" Dane took out another thing.

Thor's experience was limited, so he couldn't recognize what it was, but he felt that anything that could glow must be extraordinary.

He asked curiously, "What is this?"

Dane: “…” I’m asking too much of you.

"This is the ember of creation."

"Embers of Creation?" Two seconds later, Thor successfully read the memory in his brain and exclaimed in surprise, "Embers of Creation!"

"How do you have such a thing?"

"I was lucky. I found it from a kind person." Dane said insincerely.

Thor didn't find any loopholes in Dane's words at all, and stared at the ounce of the embers of creation with wide eyes.

"If it were true, Dane, you could save countless lives!"

Although Thor had never seen the Ashes of Creation with his own eyes, he had heard of the functions of this magical substance. Just a small amount was enough to turn a desert planet into a jungle planet in an instant, which was quite incredible.

Even barren worlds like Jotunheim, where the Frost Giants live, and Watalheim, where the Dark Elves live, will be revived by the Ashes of Creation.

Thor always thought that this thing was just a legend, but he didn't expect it to really exist!

He could almost immediately think of which countries needed this thing, such as Alfheim, whose homeland had suffered great damage due to the invasion of the dark elves a long time ago, and some places had not yet recovered.

There lives a group of light elves with magical powers, who are one of Asgard's most staunch supporters.

There is also Vanaheim. Although the relationship between the Vanir gods there and Asgard is rather strained, if there are the Ashes of Creation, even those arrogant gods will welcome them with a smile.

Every world has some local environmental problems that are difficult to deal with, especially places like Vanaheim, which have experienced countless wars between gods in the past.

There are many environmental degradation problems caused by destruction, pollution, and over-exploitation of planetary resources.

The Embers of Genesis can solve these problems once and for all.

Even with Thor's brain, he could imagine how much benefit holding the Ashes of Creation would bring to the owner.

This thing is hard to come by!

Thor swallowed hard, "Dane, you want to..."

"Tell me, if I use this to make friends with other countries, will they welcome me?"

Of course, they would like to worship you.

Thor complained inwardly.

"So you're planning on asking me to help you contact the leaders of other nations? I have to warn you, some nations are not easy to deal with."

When Thor said this, he thought of the Fire Giants of Muspelheim. Those guys were even more stubborn than the Frost Giants.

Although they nominally surrendered to Asgard, Thor always felt that those guys had bad intentions secretly.

"The people I really want to make friends with the most are those from Vanaheim and Alfheim." Dane did not hide his intentions.

Thor finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was familiar with these two places.

Not to mention Alfheim, a die-hard supporter of Asgard. Although the gods of Vanaheim have some problems with the Aesir of Asgard, the others are still quite friendly.

Hogan, one of the Three Warriors of Asgard, is a warrior from Vanaheim and is doing well in Asgard.

"Leave this matter to me." As usual, Thor took the job without any ulterior motives.

In his opinion, now that Zhongting has grown in strength, it is only natural for it to want to establish diplomatic relations with other countries.

The education he received since childhood told him that the nine realms are like one family.

Of course, he probably has forgotten that when Odin taught him, there was a second half to the sentence, which was that all countries should unite under Asgard.

On the contrary, Loki remembered the second half of the sentence very clearly.

Just as he was about to turn and leave, Dane called him.

"Wait, I'm not using you for nothing, take this first."

He stuffed an ounce of the Creation Ash in his hand into Thor's hand, leaving the latter a little dumbfounded.

"Why did you give me this?"

Dane put his arm around Thor's shoulders and said, "Don't say I'm not considerate. What happens to other countries is a matter of the future. Right now, Asgard and Earth are the closest. How could I forget my old friend when I have something good?"

The fusion of Sokovia and Asgard is already proceeding subtly, and in the future there will probably be many children with demigod blood.

Dane's Umbrella is quietly carrying out ideological transformation in the local area. In the second half of the sentence that Thor forgot, Asgard does not necessarily have to occupy the main position.

"Isn't Odin feeling well lately? This thing should be of some help to him."
