Marvel: Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit

"It's a success! It's finally a success! Hahahaha, it's finally a success!"

Otto had expected to be calmer in this moment he had fantasized about countless times, but that wasn't the case. His heart was pounding with excitement, his blood was boiling, and in his throes of adrenaline, he turned around and hugged the other members of his team, cheering wildly and enjoying the moment of triumph.

Not far away, Matthew and the others were also applauding, for Otto, for Terra, and for themselves.

Nigley reached out and nudged Reicher beside her. Under the latter's gaze, she chuckled and said, "My dear Chapter Leader, we're in for a good time now."

Rachel and Natasha exchanged glances and nodded slightly.

“Otto succeeded. Next, we need to develop long-range weapon delivery terminal technology, but we don’t have that technology right now.”

"Minister of Science and Technology Melina said softly."

Controlling the sun is a good thing, and its significance for people's livelihood goes without saying, but its more important aspect is its impact on military power.

The Ministry of Science and Technology has already initiated a project on remote star-driven technology, but the technology is far too advanced.

It's true that the scientists in the Ministry of Science and Technology are all geniuses, but Earth's technology is too backward, and their ideas and concepts are too advanced, so they don't know where to start.

In terms of materials, and the most basic solar energy, we don't lack anything; what we lack is technology.

However, it may take a lot of time to study.

“So the best way is of course to ask someone else.” Negri’s pink lips curled up slightly, which is why she said she was busy.

Chapter 363 Thor Gets into Trouble (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Earth doesn't have that technology, but other planets do.

The Milky Way is home to numerous civilizations, whose advanced technological systems far surpass those of Earth, including interstellar travel, wormhole jump technology, and light-speed engines.

If these technologies could be gathered and thoroughly understood by scientists in the Ministry of Science and Technology, the technological gap could be significantly reduced and leveled off.

This is where the Super Soldier Serum's advantage becomes apparent.

Human intelligence is not bad to begin with, having had thousands of years of feudal civilization before, not to mention countless tens of thousands of years before that.

However, from the scientific revolution to the current era of technological explosion.

It's only about four hundred years at most.

Four hundred years is but a drop in the ocean for a technological civilization.

The Kree Empire has maintained its technological civilization for over a million years.

However, in terms of technological level, the Kree Empire was not ahead of Earth for such a long time.

Perhaps since the beginning of the technological age, humanity has come into contact with some extraterrestrial civilizations and learned from or absorbed their teachings. In any case, this shows that humanity is an intelligent species.

It's not bad among all civilizations in the universe.

Not to mention Terra also created a bug-level super soldier gene serum that increases lifespan and enhances the brain.

This significance is immeasurable for the entire human race.

While intelligence can be enhanced, within the existing technological system on Earth, technology will advance rapidly, but significant breakthroughs are unlikely in the short term.

Not to mention star-driven weapon technologies that are associated with the size of the Sun.

If Earth doesn't have it, then we'll just get one ready-made. It's no big deal.

For human civilization to develop, it is not necessarily impossible to simply focus on gaining experience; that would be nothing more than "closing the country to the outside world."

The specifics of how to proceed are debatable, but overall, venturing into space is an inevitable trend.

Rachel, Natasha, and the others understood the situation and didn't say anything more.

After congratulating Otto and his team, Reicher and other senior executives left, as they had other matters to attend to.

Despite its small land area, Terra has a heavy burden.

Otto and his team did not rush to leave; they needed to observe the artificial sun for a week.

After all, an artificial sun isn't just about igniting one; it will need to be mass-produced.

If its stability is uncertain, problems could arise during manufacturing, which could be very serious.

So the following week...

People witnessed this bright and scorching sun burning for a full week without any sign of waning. It was even specially equipped with a power output docking system and underwent testing.

The data was enough to make some knowledgeable people gasp in shock.

Terra made no attempt to conceal its data in this regard, disclosing it openly and without concern for the potential impact.

Until the observation period has ended.

Only after Otto and his team of scientists officially confirmed that the artificial sun technology was close to perfect and there was no risk of it going out of control.

They left with great excitement.

The equipment and instruments were dismantled along with the artificial sun, but it remained on the border of Hell, or more precisely, in Matthew's possession.

As the first experiment, this artificial solar energy has a power output of around 100 gigawatts.

Compared to the sun's approximately 3828 trillion trillion watts, this sun is at most a tiny flame.

However, what Matthew needs is its stable structure. He has been preparing for one thing all this time: to create a stable structure such as a magnetic confinement frame and energy regulation.

He wanted to infuse it with magical elements, and also inscribed it with specially designed magical rune arrays.

It would be impossible for him to create a fixed magnetic field and energy bar control at his current level of life, but what can he do when this artificial sun is located on the border of hell?

He possesses omniscience and omnipotence on the border of hell, and can arbitrarily alter the laws of physics. Many things that were originally impossible can be accomplished with a single thought.

Being an administrator of a pocket dimension is awesome.

Matthew stood in the sky above the border of Hell, holding the artificial sun, no more than a hundred meters in diameter, in his hands. Feeling the immense energy within it, he raised his hand, and in an instant, the artificial sun slowly rose into the air, flying towards the starry sky above the sphere of the border of Hell.

As a vast amount of magical energy was injected, the artificial sun gradually grew larger and larger, and the energy from the fusion combustion became increasingly violent and intense.

Soon, the frontier of hell welcomed the source of life, and an evolution of life was about to begin.

........

A roar echoed from within the majestic palace of Asgard.

"Do you know what you've done, Thor?"

The aged and majestic roar, like that of a lion, carries a supreme will that can crush the courage of anyone.

The warriors known as the Three Warriors of Asgard and a female warrior knelt on the ground, pale-faced, heads bowed, not daring to breathe.

Because the one who is angry is called Odin.

Loki, the pale-faced, handsome god of deception, dressed in a green robe and armor, also knelt down because of his father's anger, but a triumphant smile flashed in his eyes.

He pretended to tug at the corner of his brother Thor's red cloak, trying to get his brother to kneel down and beg for Odin, the king of the gods, to forgive him.

But Saul remained unmoved; he couldn't understand why he was being questioned by his father when he had clearly done the right thing.

His armor and cloak were stained with blood and frost, and the blood at the corner of his mouth showed that he had just gone through a life-or-death battle.

“I did nothing wrong. They provoked us first. They tried to break into the treasure vault, and you just let it go. This is an insult to Asgard.”

Thor stared directly at Odin with his copper bell-like eyes and roared defiantly.

Odin, clad in magnificent armor and wielding Gungnir, the spear that symbolized his authority, looked at Thor's defiant expression, and his anger began to rise.

Although it was something he did on purpose, this foolish brute still angered him.

Odin was angry, and Thor was just as angry.

Just two days ago was Thor's coronation ceremony. Odin, the father god, was getting old and was preparing to formally crown him as the rightful king of Asgard, entrusting him with the responsibility of ruling the Nine Realms.

The ceremony, which was supposed to be a formal transfer of royal power, was interrupted by the Frost Giants breaking into the Asgardian vaults and attempting to steal the ancient Winter Coffin.

In his youthful arrogance, he disregarded Odin's truce order, further fueled by Loki's feigned encouragement to disrupt the coronation.

This led Thor, along with Loki, his friend Sif, and the Warriors Three of Asgard—Fandar, Volstagg, and Hogan—to storm Jotunheim, the kingdom of the Frost Giants, initiating a conflict and triggering a great war.

Chapter 364 Thor: Odin, you foolish old man (Seeking monthly votes)

The outcome of this war was lopsided.

Although Thor, Loki, the Warriors Three, and Sif are all the most valiant warriors in Asgard.

Its combat power is definitely among the top, second only to Odin of Asgard.

But the Frost Giants are far superior to the weak rebels they once fought.

The frost giants were once the mortal enemies of Asgard.

Ordinary Frost Giants can reach a height of nearly 20 meters, while the progenitor-class giant Ymir can exceed 40 meters in height, with 75% of his muscles composed of frozen water.

It can also manipulate the power of ice and use its cold breath to quickly heal wounds.

Ymir, the progenitor of the frost giants, existed long ago, and the three Odin brothers once fought a creation-level war with him.

In 965 AD, Laufey, the Frost Giant King, led his army to invade Midgard, one of the territories of Asgard.

Upon learning the news, Odin immediately led the Asgardian army in a decisive battle on Earth, ultimately driving the Frost Giants back to Jotunheim.

The war was extremely fierce, with a large number of Asgardian warriors sacrificing their lives.

Odin eventually defeated Laufey, who possessed the ancient Winter Coffin, and took away the frost giants' treasure. However, during the battle, Laufey ambushed him and blinded Odin's right eye.

Of course, this eye was already blind, and Odin voluntarily gave it up in exchange for wisdom.

Regardless, this is enough to demonstrate the power of the Frost Giants.

In recent years, the Frost Giants have been trapped in Jotunheim and have been behaving themselves.

This doesn't mean the Frost Giants have always been well-behaved; on the contrary, Laufey's ambitions have always remained, though he hasn't fully recovered from the severe blow he suffered.

That doesn't mean Thor and his crew can fight against them.

Therefore, Thor's recklessness and arrogance instigated the war, giving the Frost Giants an excuse to start a war. Not only that, but it also almost caused Thor and his companions to die in Jotunheim.

If it weren't for Odin arriving in Jotunheim at the last crucial moment, riding his eight-legged steed and wielding the eternal spear Gungnir, Thor and his companions would have been taken prisoner even if they hadn't died, and Asgard would have paid a heavy price.

Thor, Loki, and the others were unaware that their actions were being watched by Odin.

Saul was angry because his coronation ceremony was interrupted, not because it was his own.

He never had much ambition for power or the throne; Thor's anger stemmed from Odin's attitude as the All-King who led Asgard.

Odin apologized to Laufey, even though Laufey mocked him.

Now Odin is turning around and accusing himself of being reckless and arrogant, breaking the peace agreement between Asgard and the Frost Giants.

This was unacceptable to Thor.

The disruption of the coronation ceremony was an humiliation of Thor's authority, and a disgrace to him and to all of Asgard.

His authority was offended, and he hoped to prove his strength to Asgard with a victory, conquering his enemies like his father Odin had done.

In Thor's view, domination is synonymous with conquest by force, and he sees Odin's compromise as a sign of weakness.

The Father God is old.

"I'm protecting my home!" Thor roared angrily.

"If you can't even protect your own friends, how can you protect this kingdom?" Odin seemed a little tired. He looked at Heimdall, the guardian of the Rainbow Bridge, and said, "Take him to heal his wounds, immediately."

"If we are afraid, Asgard will perish. What is there to defend? The Frost Giants must learn to fear me as they once feared you."

Thor shoved away Heimdall, who came up to help him, and said through gritted teeth.

"This is pride and arrogance, not leadership. You've forgotten everything I taught you, the patience of a soldier..."

Odin was interrupted by Thor before he could finish speaking: "While you waited and endured, the Nine Kingdoms were laughing at us. Your old path is no longer viable. You have witnessed the decline of Asgard, yet you only know how to talk big."
