The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics

Odin's Vault, to put it bluntly, is actually Odin's trophy room, where all sorts of dangerous items Odin snatched from his defeated opponents are stored.

The contents of Odin's Vault are not fixed; the items stored in Odin's Vault vary across comics, movies, animations, and other works.

For example, the Casket of Ancient Winters, this item is stored in Odin's Vault in the movies, but its location differs in comics and animations.

There's no way around it, Marvel Comics is just too big, and it's difficult for these creators to reach a consensus, not only regarding the storage location of certain items, but even situations where a character who is clearly dead is inexplicably resurrected.

So even Yang Le isn't very clear about what's in Odin's Vault; maybe there are even Infinity Stones inside.

But there's no use thinking so much, we'll know when the vault is opened, but since Odin can bring Yang Le here, it means he really sees Yang Le as one of his own.

Not to mention ordinary people, even Odin's own children are not qualified to come here casually. To enter Odin's Vault, you must have Odin's approval; no one else has this power, not even the Queen Frigga.

"This gate and the vault itself were personally crafted by the Dwarf King, leading the most skilled craftsmen of Nidavellir. It incorporates many precious metals, including Uru metal, and also includes a branch of the World Tree."

Odin placed his hand on the gate, stroking it like a work of art, explaining as he caressed it.

"A branch of the World Tree?" Yang Le was a little surprised. The World Tree, which carries the Nine Realms, is not an ordinary thing. In the comics, the World Tree has many wonderful appearances, such as the handle of Mjolnir being made from a branch of the World Tree.

Don't underestimate this branch; its sturdiness may even exceed the head of Mjolnir.

"It seems you know its greatness," Odin nodded. "Any item stored in my vault can bring danger to the Nine Realms, so we must treat them with caution."

"Even I would have to expend a lot of effort to break through this vault head-on. The only way to open it easily is with my divine words, open the door."

As soon as Odin finished speaking, the exquisite patterns on the door began to move, pulsating as if they were alive. The circular lock core in the center of the door began to rotate, and with a series of clicking sounds, the door slowly opened.

Unlike the exquisite door on the outside, the interior of Odin's Vault is very simple. A long corridor, wide enough for two or three people to walk side by side, with stone pillars erected on both sides at regular intervals.

In the center of every two stone pillars is a stone platform, and on top of the stone platform are placed all sorts of wonders.

Yang Le glanced over roughly, and at first sight, he saw a stone basin, which contained not any tangible substance, but a raging fire that was constantly burning.

Yang Le recognized what it was at first glance. This was not an ordinary flame for lighting; it should be the Eternal Flame that Odin stole from Muspelheim.

The Eternal Flame is one of Surtur's power sources. With it, Surtur is a completely different person than without it. Odin deliberately stole it from Muspelheim in order to weaken Surtur's power.

It was precisely because he didn't have the Eternal Flame that Surtur was defeated in his duel with Odin; otherwise, the strength of the two should have been comparable.

Next, Yang Le also saw some familiar things, like the Casket of Ancient Winters. Here, it was closer to its appearance in the comics, an exquisite box with a red body and gold trim, with a skull as the lock in the center.

Then there were some treasures that were only briefly mentioned, or things that Yang Le didn't recognize. In short, the contents of Odin's Vault were indeed numerous, exceeding Yang Le's expectations.

Odin led Yang Le deeper, until he stopped at a vacant stone platform. Without Odin saying anything, Yang Le understood his meaning and placed the Sky Hammer on it first.

After placing the Sky Hammer, Yang Le took two steps back and walked out of the range of the two pillars. Just as he stepped out, a blue light curtain suddenly appeared, but it quickly disappeared.

"Second layer of protection," Odin explained. "A simple but reliable shield that can protect these things while acting as an alarm. When someone triggers the shield, the entire Asgard can hear the alarm."

"We should go, child," Odin said, and took the lead in walking outside. It seemed that not only did he not treat Yang Le as an outsider, but he also trusted his character very much, not hindering Yang Le's sight along the way.

Of course, Yang Le himself was not interested in these things. The Little Broken Watch was too comprehensive, and with the bionic QQ he built himself, it was now difficult for these external objects to move him.

In a place Yang Le couldn't see, Odin was actually observing him. After discovering that Yang Le only glanced at the vault and didn't look at anything else in it, Odin nodded almost imperceptibly, becoming even more satisfied with Yang Le.

After the two walked out of the vault, Odin spoke again.

"Child, I have a request."

"Hmm? What is it?"

Yang Le looked at Odin in confusion. He felt that the God-King in front of him was being too polite, even making him feel a little uncomfortable.

"I hope you can help Thor deal with the upcoming crisis," Odin turned around and stared at Yang Le with his only remaining eye. "I am very dissatisfied with the prophecy that is about to happen. Just want to take my son's life with just one sentence? Don't even think about it."

"Even if the child in the prophecy is not Thor, it won't work. Asgardians can die on the glorious battlefield, but they must never die from a boring prophecy."

"I started working on this prophecy thousands of years ago. Currently, Asgard, Nidavellir, and Vanaheim are all prepared, but the water in this matter is deeper than I thought. Even the Dark Elves have participated."

"Malekith is a cunning man. He won't fight an unprepared battle. He can't challenge the alliance of the three realms alone. He will definitely unite with others in order to break the seal of the Serpent."

"I don't know how many people he has united with. Jotunheim? Muspelheim? Or perhaps Helheim. Asgardians are not afraid of challenges, but this war is likely to spread to Midgard."

"I hope you can unite the capable people and strangers of Midgard to form a team," Odin's eyes were burning. "Once the war starts, it will be difficult for us to take care of Midgard. I hope you protect yourselves as much as possible."
